tecting American Interests.

It Is Scattered All Over the Earth Pro-
tecting American Interests.
At no time within recent years has
the United States government been so
well represented in foreign waters by
an armed naval force, nor so poorly
provided for in ships at home, as at
present. Three big cruisers are at Rio
Janeiro, two more are on their way
there, and this. number will be in
creased to six by the monitor Mian-
tonomoh. The gunboat Yorktown is
at Callao, Peru, and the corvette AL
lance has sailed to join her, from La
Libertad. The old Yantic is stationed
permanently at the mouth of the Rio
de la Plata, charged with the duty of
attending to American interests in
adjacent territory.
The Ranger, which sailed from La
Libertad recently for Corinto, Nicara-
qua, is assigned to the west coast of
Central America, where revolutionary
outbreaks are SO frequent, while the
corvette Kearsarge, now en- route from
New York to San Domingo to afford
protection to American life and prop
erty in the threatened uprising there;
will cruise about the West Indies, and,
until relieved by the cruiser San Fran
cisco, along the east coast of Central
America. The Philadelphia and the
Adams are at Honolulu. The Asiatic
or China station, which has become so
important through the hostile feeling
of the Chinese toward Americans over
the exclusion law, has six vessels at
tached to it, and tits expected that the
Machias, now at Brooklyn, will sail
soon to join them.
The North Atlantic or home station
has nominally five, but actually only
one vessel in commission to its credit,
for the San Francisco is on her way to
Rio, the Kearsarge is bound for San
Domingo (Which can hardly be called
a ''home" port, although within the
lines of the station), and the Machias is
destined for China. The dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius is therefore likely to
be the sole war vessel left for service
on the eastern coast of the United
States, and the practicability of the
Vesuvius as an effective battleship is
in serious doubt. At the maynard at
Mare Island, Cal, the old Mohican is
fitting for sea service, presumably in
the South Pacific. The coast defense
vessel Monterey is also at Mare Island

While pop1list and democratic dema-
: gogues are laying their heads together
and considering how best they can de-
feat the republicans in the June cleo
''tions, the intelligent voter is asking
himself the question Chow shall 1 work
and'vote so as to bring about speedy
return of good times?" That is just now
the real question AT issue. The one
great thought that now perplexes the
minds OF most men, is not whether he
will fuse with this one or with that one,
but where the next dollar is coming
from, and few men will care who they
elect SO long as they can get chance to
earn living. Mere politics don't count
for much in these days; but wherever
elections have been held SO far in this
year of grace, it would seem that the
large majority of voters look upon ''re-
publican success and returning pros
sperity'' as synonymous terms.-Port-

Land IN Louisiana.

They Hold Millions of Acres of Swamp
Land IN Louisiana.
The New Orleans Pieayune prints a
table of the land barons of Louisiana
and their holdings of unimproved tim
Der and swamp tracts, from which it
appears that alien syndicates, compa-
nies and individuals own more than
100000 acres. One syndicate claims
400, 600 acres, several possess 100, 900
and more and holdings of from 20, 900
to 10000 acres are not uncommon.
Most of this land is owned IN the west
ern states, but to capitalists of New
York and Philadelphia several hundred
thousand acres belong.
The Picayune explains that origin
ally the United States owned all of
the lands in Louisiana other than those
which at the time of the cession by
France were held by private persons
or corporations Subsequently what
were known as swamp lands, that is to
say, lands that were subject to tidal
overflow from the sea or were annu-
ally flooded by the Mississippi, became
the property of the state, with the pro-
vision that it should sell them for the
purpose of raising fund to build
levees.' A considerable territory, con-
oASGlaS VI PAdh4G eLANh 4OFcSG AdASl, WAS
retained by the United States to be,
sold as homesteads- Such a DISPOSE
tion was made of this land, but it is.
now largely in possession of syndicates.
The Picayune's table includes the.
swamp, homestead and sea-marsh
lands The last named, lions share
of which has been acquired by the
Watkins syndicate, must be drained
and diked like the Holland coast, and,
some progress in this,worl has already
been made.

The voting population of the city of
Ashland is about 400, of whom forty or
fifty are populists. Last Monday, says
the Tidings, the populists concluded to
f. capture the school meeting, and they
did so. They mustered about two
thirds of their whole voting force, and
other people paid as little attention to
the school meeting as usual, so that only
about sixty votes all told attended the
meeting and the populists had a major
eity of the votes. They had been very
slyly preparing for this great coup in
rsecret caucuses for several weeks-the
lplutocratic Office holders of the school
district must be cleaned out and the
new era of populism planted at once.
The school election was good place to
plant it, and the edict went forth to
turn out and populize the school meet
ing. When the election came up, no
populist seemed to be anxious to sacri-
fee himself upon the thorny eminence
of the school dictatorship for three years
of unpaid public duty of very annoy
ing kind-there is no salary attached to
the Office of school director. But when
it comes to school clerk, that is differ
ent matter-the clerk gets fees for his
work. The populists concluded that the
clerkship was their oyster-and so il
was. They nominated and elected T.
W. Bryant over G. H. Gillette, who is
one of the most efficient and careful
school clerks the district has ever had.

broken down, is cured by Ayers
Sarsaparilla. He writes:
For eight years, was, most of the
time, great sufferer from constipa.
tion, kidney trouble, and indiges-
tion, so that my constitution seemed
to be completely broken down. was
induced to try Ayers Sarsaparilla, and
took nearly seven bottles, with such
excellent results that my stomach,
bowels, and kidneys are in perfect con-
dition, and, in all their functions, as
regular as clock-work. AT the time
began taking Ayers Sarsaparilla, my
weight was only 129 pounds; 1 now can
brag of 159 pounds, and was never in so
good health. If you could see me be-
fore and after using, you would want
me for a travelling advertisement.

PRESIDENT AND SENATE.

Washington, dependence states that
the President has threatened Senator Hill
with the loss Of a place on the Supreme
bench for New York if the Senator does
not consent to the confirmation of Peck
ham. It is even said that the President
went SO far as to declare that he would
not nominate another man from New York
If Hill succeeded in causing the rejection
of the present nominee. These are likely
inventions. The President could not sup
pose that Hill would be intimdsted by
them. If Mr.. Cleveland makes the reiec-
ton of a nominee an excuse for not doing
his duty the punishment would fall upon
himself. He has nominated two men from
New York who were hostile to Hill, and
no one could deny HIPS right to use his
influence to secure their rejection. But If
Hill succeeds in both cases as he has in
one the President could not assume that
any New Yorker he might nominate
would be rejected. The constitution says:
''The President shall nominate, and by
and with the advice of the Senate shall
appoint" The mandate is laid upon the
President to nominate, but the appoint
ment is only effected when he nominates
man whom the Senate will approve. The
obligation Of the executive to act is the
more imperative since the Senate has at no
time more than negative power. The
rejection of dozen nominees would q OF
confer upon the Senate the right to take
the initiative The purpose OF the trainers
of the constitution was without doubt to
secure in class of officers persons whom
both the President and Senate would con-
slider fit to perform the duties OF the office.
An appointment would involve the COM
bined exercise of the judgment Of both
President and Senate. Realizing the
power of rejection lodged in the Senate
the President would exercise the greater
care that names submitted to that body
should be acceptable. The Presidents
friends contend that if Mr.. Peckham is a
fit man for the Office Mr.. Hill should not
oppose his confirmation. This theory if
carried out would place the political
machinery of every State in the hands OF
the President He could fill every position
with his adherents, only taking care to see
that his nominees were fairly competent
and were not VIGOROUSLY disreputable 1t
would Tot be wise TO invest the executive
with such power. The present Senatorial
rule which requires a nomination to be
acceptable to the Senators from the State
the nominee claims as his residence serves
as restraint upon a wanton use of eXecu.
tive power

GETTING NO BETTER.

The CALLS Washington correspondent
says that Minister Willis had twenty-one
hours in which to have copies of President
Dole's letter prepared for the State De-
partment And yet on pretext of a want
of time he let the steamer go without the
dispatch, knowing that it would be about
two weeks before another opportunity
would be offered. 1t appears that rather
than have the administration remain in
ignorance of the contents of Dole's letter
during these two weeks Minister Thurston
sent copy to the State Department. But
that department preferred TO remain in
darkness. At least it preferred TO keep
the people in ignorance Of what Dole had
written.
1t is possible that the administration
wanted vote on the McCreary resolutions
before it submitted any more of President
Dole's letters 20 Congress. The letter of
the Hawaiian President which has been
published is still ringing in President
Cleveland's ears. III the McCreary resolu-
tions are adopted the ringing will be
little less acute. Congressman Black of
Illinois said in debate that all the Repub-
licans hoped to gain by this discussion was
political advantage. He seemed to imag-
inc that the passage of the McCreary reso-
lutions would shut the Republicans off
from communication with the people. In
this he Will find himself mistaken. The
passage OF the resolutions indorsing the
Presidents Hawaiian policy will have no
weight with the public at large. The peo
pie know too we'll how votes are gained in
the present House.

THE ISTHMUS ROUTE.

The purpose Of Traffic Manager Leeds
visit to New York is understood to be to
come to some kind Of an agreement with the
Panama Railroad Company by which the
Panama route may be kept open. While
there is no reliable intelligence as to the
success of his mission, there is belief that
the magnitude of the interests involved
Will insure success. This is case where
there should be no such word as fail.
There are no insurmountable obstacles in
the way. The Panama Railroad Company
Is at liberty to make any contracts which
may seem to be to the advantage of the
company. The question is one OF amount
OF business and freight rates. The North
American Navigation Company, which
connects with the Panama Railroad Com
pany, has been sustained at some loss the
past year. but 1t has saved our merchants
in the cost OF freight at least ten times as
much as it has lost. For some years TO
come the Panama route must remain the
key to the transportation problem, so far
as it affects this State. For some wears
there will be no Other way to maintain a
healthful competition against the South
ern Pacific Company. What MONOPOLY
by that company means our people know.
They have seen our commerce dwindle
under hostile discrimination against the
city, and will naturally try to avoid
any further experience of that kind AS
a part of the Panam system OF transpor-
tation between the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts, the construction OF an interior sys.

AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

Teresa Dean Tallman, who during the
Worlds Fair in Chicago under the heading
white City Chips" c0nlIlbu ed some OF the
most readable matter published relative TO that
great event in the columns of the Inter Ocean
OF that city, is at The Palace. Mrs Tallman, or
Teresa Dean" as she is known IN the literary
world, is the wife of leading physician OF
Chicago, and has won enviable distinction In
newspaper work during the last few years.
Probably her most noted work or al least that
which attracted most widespread attention,
was performed while at the front during the
Sioux campaign, when General Miles was In
command of the troops. AT that time she rep
resented the Chicago Herald, and in following
the fortunes OF the troops in the field she was
In the saddle day and night for several weeks,
during which time she Kept her paper fully
abreast In the matter OF news with all Compel

ENGLAND'S COMMERCE.

The returns of the Government Board of
Trade show large falling off in England's
foreign commerce. In two years exports
nave fallen from 9247, $50. 100 to ELS, 1885,
246. The imports have fallen in the same
period from e435, AL, 264 to e405, 100. $50.
The balance of trade is against England
by el27. 62S SJ2, against 9126, 409, 521 in 1891.
The amount OF imports of England are de-
termined by the amount of her exports.
She can buy all the raw material she wants
and can make it all into finished goods.
The point is to sell the goods. Her inan-
cial policy has improved her ability to sell
in silver-usng countries. Should none
tary and commercial union be formed by
the countries that use both gold and silver
and which use silver only, English CON-
merce would receive a still greater setback.

tenn for California is an essential feature.
The business Of the main line would be
greatly increased by the construction of
short lines between San Francisco and
such points in the interior as the mer-
chants of thise city could supply If the
Panama route is made the basis of one
comprehensive system. The North Amer
lean Navigation Company has done good
work in the year of its existence, but its
benefits to the community would be
doubled and treDled If the goods brought
to this port could be distributed by the
same system, or by friendly company, to
all parts OF the State. 1t is much to be
hoped that when Mr.. Leeds returns he
will bring intelligence of the necessary
steps to a comprehensive interior system
of routes and railroad transportation.

LET W SEE.

Several Of our interior CONTEMPORARIES
jump at the conclusion that because there
are symptoms of revival of business the
Wilson tariff bill is the cause of them.
1t would seem, however. that when mills
have been closed six months nothing is
more natural than that they should COM
mence work again. Consumption, re-
duced as it has been by the comparative
inability of the people to purchase. in
time overtakes production which stands
still. Comparison should lot be made
