THE TROUBLE IN brazil,

The troubles that have beset the re-
public Of Brazil since the establishment
OF that form of government have been
largely due to the fact that tho people
have neither learned the method nor
efficacy Of organization. Under the
monarchy they we're led along by the
firm hand OF centralized power. There
was but one will to be executed and
obedience was easy. But since the
people themselves have como into the
responsibility of self-government they
have met many new and perplexing diff
~ficulties, and have not yet found tho
way to overcome them. Regard for and
Difference to the will Of the majority
has not become q generally accepted
tenet among the people. Or at least
among the leaders Of the people. This
has made it all the easier for the army
and navy, the only organized and dis
ciplined forces Of the republic, to pre-
dominate in civi! affairs.
An admiral in the navy and q general
in the army organized the successful
revolt against the Brazilian monarchy
and established the republic. The gen.
ersl was made the first president, but
was afterward driven from office and
another general put in his place. Now
military executive is making a hard
struggle to maintain his position, against
tho admiral who aided him and his pre-
decessor to exile Dom Pedro. It thus
that the army and navy have the
making and u%nmaking Of presidents in
the great republic Of South America.
Only the most dire results, such as have
occurred, could be predicted from such
a state Of affairs. Not until the masses
Of the people OF Brazil learn that they
are the rulers OF the country will they
have abiding internal besce. By reason
Of commanding position and strength
The Brazilians are as secure from attack
by their neighbors as are the people OF
the United States, and the uselessness
a standing army Of any considerable
proportions will soon be recognized by
them, as 1t has been for a long time by
US. Then the power Of the army and
navy will be reduced to q minimum, the
stability of the republic increased, and
.he dangers OF internal political revolu-
ion decreased. In a few years the last
II the monarchists will have disappeared,
md an era Of u"nexampled prosperity
Ind development will come to Brazil.

In the state convention of democrats
in Nebraska held Wednesday there was
a sharp contest between those who On
dorsed and those who opposed Presi-
dent Cleveland's financial Vows. By n
considerable majority the hard money
men prevailed and captured the organi-
cation and adopted resolutions to their
liking. This action 80 incensed Con-
gresham William j. Bryan that he an
nounced his withdrawal from member-
ship in the democratic party. But Mr..
Bryan is still in sympathy with the true
democratic principles of bimetallism
and tariff reform. His efforts in SIM
port Of those cardinal democratic doc
trines will not be abated in the least
and to all ~intents and purposes Mr..
Bryan will be in the future as In the

much of a statesman to fall into the
profound error OF believing that free

each consuming, upon the average, the
product of 5000 acres of beets, or As, 1000
tons, to supply this country with sugar.
At s. per ton each mandatory would
distribute to the growers in its vicinity
$4,000, or for the 400 a total of $50
100000 annually. The fact that the DER
capita consumption of sugar in this
country is rapidly increasing, as we'll as
the population, will compel a large in
crease in the importation of raw sugar
unless we promote and develop the in
dustry in this country. And here are
these superb valleys from Glendive to
the Bitter Root just suited to the
beet and only waiting for capital to
erect the factories.

SECRETARY HERBERr's Forthcoming
report makes it plain that 1894 will be
n memorable epoch in the new navy OF
the United States. Among tho vessels
that may be assigned to that yenr are
three 10.2O0-ton battle ships, which are
declared to be, unequalled in their CON-
binatlon Of enormous gun power with
the defensive strength furnished by
their thick nickel-plated armor; two
other battle ships less remarkable, but
exceeding $500 and 6,6o0 tons respec-
lively, and welcome additions to the
navy; four heavily armed monitors, one
OF them specially important; three
swift protected cruisers, OF which one
will probably be the fastest in our navy;
finally, a western-built torpedo craft
and a ram that adds n new type to naval
construction, in oil some fifteen vessels.

Or the three receivers for the North

are Montana men with large interests
in the state. Two better men for the
place than Messrs. Hauser and Bonner
could not be found. 1t is fortunate,
indeed, that the important feeders to
the main line should be under the con-

end toward which the general re-
ceivers are w~orking--the restoration of
the greut transcontinental line to the

Tests Of the Harvey nickel steel at In
dian Head Saturday were remarkably sue
cessful. Reports from them show that four
shots wefe fired from l0-inch gun at a
plate 3 feet by :. having thickness Of IA
inches The first. with striking velocity
of 1872 feet, only got abou, oue-third of
the way through, aud was broken to frag-
ments without causing the least cracking of
the armor. The second fired with the COM
paratiyeiy high velocity Of 1850 feet, cracked
the plate, ye, iaiie TO ge, half way through.
A third, at 1860 feet, produced abou, the
same effect. The final shot, at the remark
able velocity for such gun of 1850 feet,
-aeked the plate AMI broke the backing yet
could not penetrate more than thrce-quart-
ers of the armor. These tests confirm the
results of previous ones that the perforation
of Harveyizci armor by guns usually en-
ployed against plates of a given thickness
cannot be effected. If the calibre is so in
creased as 10 overcome the resistance of the
armor. even then the armor does not seem
TO permit perforation, but the whole sub
stance must be smashed and broken up.
The general conclusion is that the new ships
of the United States navy are to carry the
very best armer in the world.

Boston Record.

Minister Stevens, who hoisted the Stars
and Stripes over Hawaii, was once Maine
preacher. He left the ministry to become
editor of the kENNEBEC JOURNAL in Au
gusta. Mr.. Stevens was elected repre-
sentative to the Maine Legislature in 1861
AMI 1867 and state senator for the years
1868 and 1869. He is thus perfectly
equipped to furnish the folks at Honolulu
with theology or politics, beside the ON
niscient editorial advice with which Maine
editor is usually saturated.

our navy grows rapidly. The Indiana
now nearly completed at the Cramp Della
ware Yards will be launched in two or three
weeks She is the most advanced vessel of
the three great battle ships now building,
AMI will be the most powerful vesse! pos
sessed by the United States government.
She will be, in fact, the first craft of the
new navy to properly equal in fighting pow
ers the heavier war ships of foreign navies,
and with the exception of the eight ships of
the Admiral class of the British Navy, now
building, it is doubtful if the Indiana and
her two sisters. the Massachusetts and Ore
gon. will have their equals ailoat. The
Indiana is designed to be a 10, 500-ton-dis-
placement vessel. She will carry eighteen
inch nickel Harveyized steel armor as a
protection over her most vital spots. 10
the opinion of Secretary Tracy this armor
thickness will in time of battle, keep out
of the ship the projectiles of the heaviest
war ship now afloat.
