SIOO,OOO-yyhst n Lawyer has to Say.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 15.-In few
days there will be forwarded to Sec
retary Blaine the formal claim Of the
sailors and others OF tho United
States man. Of. war Baltimore who
were injured in the fight with the
mob at Valparaiso.
Some OF the sums demanded are
very large. The total claim foots up
in the nelghborhood Of 81, 1906, 600.
The largest are demanded by John
Hamilton and jeremiah Anderson,
coal beavers on the Baltimore at the
time tho assault was committed.
Hamilton received three bad wounds,
and thinks that $50, 900 is not too
much for the Chilian government to
pay for each wound.
Anderson has three or more marks
as the result Of his being in the row,
but he says he will be satisfied II he
can get hold of $15O,OOO Chilian
money. The other claims vary from
$50, 900 up to 100000.
Lawyer +. A. Orr has the cases Of
twenty OF tho men. He says he thinks
the men are justified in asking tho
amount Of idemnity they have. "If
the Chilian Government turns over to
the United States $1,000, 900, as she
should, for this unfortunate affair,
why, we want it," said the lawyer
with smile.

A Story With a Moral,

From the Detroit Free Press.
He knocked at the back door of a
suburban house and the cook opened
it. He was sinister-looking fellow,
and she held on to the door.
"Lady of the house in?" he inquired
grufly.
No. trembled the cook.
Man of the house here?"
"No."
"None of the people in?'
None but me-" and she tried to
shut the door.
Aw,' he growled, setting his foot
against it; " guess I'll come in and
have a good eat. Step lively now, er
I'll grab you."
She let go of the door and the
tramp forged in and fell into the arms
OF big policeman, who was counting
the cook contrary to orders.

AsIeep for Eighteen Months.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 14.-In the insane
asylum is Bridget Pendegrast who
has not been awake for eighteen
months. Her only food is milk, of
which she is given about three quarts
a day through a silver tube in her
nose. She is gradually wasting away,
and as no effort can arouse her 1t is
not likely that she can live much
longer.

Our roads.

Mr.. w. q. McMakin writes To
the State Chronicle as follows:
The road tax system of per.
sonal service and Communication
should be abolished. A money
tax is far more equitable than
this personal labor system and
much less burdensome. Then
those who are skillful in other
pursuit might remain at their
favorite work and pay only
their simple share of the road
tax and not double as now. This
subject demands special atten.
ton. Railway circles have had
their share Of the state money
and convict labor and now lei
the farmers and inhabitants OF
the rural districts have their
assistance by building them

The Political Outlook.

The one fact of the future most
clearly foreshadowed is that on the
8th of November Mr.. Cleveland win
get his second lease from the people
of the United States as the accepted
tenant Of the White House. II all
the things that are to be could be as
safely discerned as this there would
be little sale for newspapers. Still,
there will be intensifying interest in
the political developments Of the next
few weeks, and the newspapers
whose educational influence has done
SO much to assure the indicated re-
suit will be kept busy recording ad-
ditional indications. Philadelphia

the weekly papers as follows:
The weekly papers of the
country are honest. They are
educators because they tell the
truth. There is no gold puring

would materially change their

editors Of these papers live near
to the people. They know their
readers and their readers know
them. They are in touch with
the community for which they
write and are therefore honest
in their utterances. Many men,
TO whom sharpness" is the one
great attribute, despise the
country press, believing it value
less-of no power or force. In
this their own sharpness "o'er-I

published in the towns and
