rALrRY OBJECTIONS.

Quite number of prominent newspa-
pers in different parts of the country are
making an ouicry against the heavy in
made by English syndicates and individual
investors from that country in the brew
cries, stock-yards, manufactures Of patent
medicines and like enterprises in this coun-
try. In some cases congress or state legis-
latures are called upon to devise legislation
which shall stop these 'aggressions" and
avert the dangers which they are assumed
to threaten OF our ''enslavement to British
capital.
It is astonishing that intelligent people
will patronize newspapers that are capable
of such arrant baiderdash. No matter
whence it may come. whether from Eng
land. Japan, South Africa or the moon,
accumulations of foreign capital invested
in the creation of property or in active in.
dustries are not only so much of clear adj
ditions to the general wealth and prosper
ity, but they release just so much of home
capital for investment in other enterprises.
Not only on account OF English invest
ments IN raiiroau properties ana In other
means of transportion. but also in connec-
ton with investments from that and other
foreign countries In Eastern industrial en-
terprises, is the state of Washington largely
interested in this question. Our phenom-
email progress is largely due to these invest
ments, directly in connection with railroad
construction, indirectly but in enormous
degree by the freeing of Eastern capital
and the disposition of its holders to i'm
prove these new and inviting fields. The
advancement of the Northwest has been
tremendously accelerated by these causes,
and the people of this section cannot be
made to believe that any influence which
has tended TO cheaper capital has been a
calamity.

Naw yorb Ma,l and Fxnra,s

General Russell A. Alger, commander of the
G. A. B., was at the Fifth avenue hotel today
getting ready TO depart for Detroit, when q Mail
and Express reporter met him. When asked
about Mr.. James r. Joys interview, in which
the latter said IL was an open secret that the
general was q candidate for the presidency In
1892 he replied:
81 have never, even in jest, spoken tn Mr.. Joy
about 1892. And have not announced myself
as candidate for the presidency to any one. Il
is true Mr.. JOY is O near neighbor and personal
friend of mine, but have never exchanged q
word on the subject with him. If I desired TO
announce myself as a candidate for the presi-
dency would do Is myself and in way that
would be unmistaxabie. My friends, seeing a
announcing my candidacy, might possibly think
the intense heat of the summer had seriousl Y
affected my brain. Somehow I have managed
to keep cool, and have not authorized or
inspired any interview announcing my candi-
dacy."
"Then you never gave any one the slig htest
reason TO suppose that you wished to be an
nounced for the presidency7'
mo. have no doubt Mr.. Joy gave he inter
view in kindly spirit. and all of that but I no.
tice he re.rained from saying that had author

DO You care to say anything now on the sub
Jet of the presidency in lse2?'
"Not word. When have anything TO say
If ever do, you may be sure shall not hesi-
tate to speak myself. hope you viii say in
your paper, and you cannot say IL too strongly,
that have not told single person that would

Robert @. Ingersoli o few years ago delivered
one of his lectures in q little New England
town. The town hall, where his lecture was
given, was packed. After Mr.. Ingersoll had left
the town there was a feeling OF uneasiness
amsssg several worthy church members lest the
faith Of some people had been shaken. 1t was
decided to hold another meeting at which Mr..
Ingersoll was to be answered. The first speaker
began by asking what Mr.. 1ngersol and those
who believed with him had ever done for Chris
tianity. "Did you' he went on, lever hear OF
Mr.. Ingersoll's contributing money to send TO
have the heather converted?" At this some one
cried out: '.why should man who does not
believe in converting people to an orthodox be-
lief give money for that purpose7" The answer
was: "Of course, ii You are going to talk that
