It seemed to the speaker that the manufacture of the soldiers guns was sufficient justification for the erection of the buildings, even if noth- ing else had ever been made there. Likewise the soldiers who carried those guns into battle had fulfilled their mis- sion and their lives were not failures even though many of the brave boys slept in unknown graves on Southern battle fields. MT Beckley said that Connecticut's record for patriotism was one to be proud of. In the Revolu. tionary war the colony furnished more troops in proportion to it's population than any other colony and the state wss equally distinguished in the late Civil war. North Canaan furnished its full quota of men in the Civil war and promptly paid its war debt on the ces- sation of hostilities. North Canaan also had the honor of having in it's cemeter- ies the remains of many brave soldiers, among others Chaplain Hiram Eddy, Chaplain William G. Pierce and Colonel Hardenbergh. North Canaan was also honored in holding the body of Milo J. Freeland, the first colored man to enlist from the North in the war of the Re bellion.

QUESTIONABLE FACTS TO SUIT ARGU.

Senator Pettigrew broke loose on
Hawaiian history second time
during the last days of the Fifty
third Congress, the occasion being
the discussion of the $500, 900 APP
preparation for the submarine cable
to this country. The now ex-
Senator seems to have particular
sntipathy for anything and every
thing Hawaiian, and calls the most
mythical and idiotic ideas into
play that have ever been expound-
ed on the floor of the United States
Senate to support his position.
In the first place he informs his
colleagues that there are 1887
Americans, or persons of American
descent, who live upon the Ha-
waiian Islands" How he gets the
American population down to this
number is a mystery, unless he
draws the inference that all the So
called Americans have been dis
franchised by recent orders of the
Administration and the remainder
have been deported or left the
country within the past few
months. This cage of the Dakotas
also says the cable is not neces-
sary from commercial stand
point. at is not necessary in
the matter of news, for it is
well known that if we do not
build this cable England will build
a cable from the western terminus
of the Canadian Pacific railroad by |
way of these islands to her Aus
tralian possessions. Therefore, we
shall be able to communicate, and

CAPTAIN CRossMAN never spoke
with more truth than when he re-
marked that if the Aliancia had
raised the English flag the port
holes of the Spanish gunboat would
have closed and the ship allowed to
proceed on it's course with no more
ado. The United States possesses
class of politicians desperately
anxious to copy Great Britain's
policies in all other respects, but
when any move is made to estab-
lish a wholesome respect for the
American flag and American inter-
ests in foreign waters or foreign
lands, the hysterical cry of '.jingo-
ism" is at once raised.

WE give in another column the
much discussed expression of opin-
ion given by Thomas G. Shearman
in Brooklyn, N. Y. The spirit
prompting a slur upon refutation
of this collection of fallacies is
only to be compared with the

casting reflections upon every eff
fort tending to enlighten and i'm

dition of our fellow man.

THE suggestion by DR.. Wood
that the Board of Health should
be supplied with some place to file
and preserve the public documents
of that department ought to receive
prompt attention. Under present
conditions, valuable records, which
can only be replaced by years of
study and investigation, may be
destroyed by fire in twinkling.
In the interests of humanity, the
country cannot afford to take the
risk it is nov running and stand
the chance of closing doors after
the horse is stolen. The value of
many of these documents cannot
be reckoned in dollars and cents.

every commercial interest will be
as we'll served" He might with
as much reason state that there Is
no necessity of telegraphic commu-
nication between South Dakota
and New York by way of Chicago.
England would gladly construct
lines to carry dispatches overland
through Canada to Montreal, leav-
ing the only expense to United
States citizens of building a con-
Meeting link north from Dakota
and south to New York from Mon
treal. And the Canadian Pacific
could very we'll arrange to ship all
of Dakota's products East. In fact,
England could take the United
States commerce and carry it on
entirely with very little trouble,
and would be doing it today were
it not for the patriotic men of '76,
who set the mark of American pat
riotism and aggression. Unfortu-
nately Senator Pettigrew and men
of his stamp have not absorbed
any of that spirit. At the same
time he cites how well England can
do American business with Ha-
wall he makes the supposition
that England would never
lombard New York, because there
is so much English capital invested
in that city. This is certainly
sorry admission for an American
in public life to make, and stimuli
taneously cry down proposition
favorable to American commerce
and capital in the West.
He calls the fallacious arguments
and facts given by Thomas Il.
Sherman to his aid, and gives
numerous other new financial
statements as follows: "In 1894
we imported sugar of the value of
$8,282,OOO. We RENTED duties
amounting to $3,5OO,oOO. In 1898
we imported 100000 worth of
sugar, and the duty at the present
rate would have been 100000.
We exported in 1893 to those ISL
ands $2,S27,0OO of our products.
nearly million dollars less than
the amount of duties which we re-
mitted."
If this great and good friend will
study history, he will find that
there was no duty on sugar from
April 1, 1891, till August %. 1894,
yet he charges US with $7,1O0, 900
of duties RENTED on sugar. In
place of the $2,S27, 900 worth of
exports given by Mr.. Pettigrew,
the custom house statistics show
81, 326, 200, difference of ST. ,499,.
600 to the credit of the United
States. Though million or so is
of comparatively little moment to
the United States, it serves to show
how the enemies of annexation are |
obliged to twist facts to suit the ar
gument, rather than search for
facts and draw honorable argu-
ments.

What about the cable?
What about the canal? Does
the United States Senate be-
lieve that other governments
will be willing to accepta dog
in the manager" policy and
allow the Pacific to be without
a cable? Do the Senators for
one moment imagine that the
Nicaragua Canal will continue
to exist merely in the magma
ton of the world and as a
channel only for paper ships?
We know not. Hawaii is in
terested in both schemes to a
very great extent becausethere
is no doubt that her commerce
will be increased by the COM
pletion Of one or both of the
measures. Nor is Hawaii the
only locality to be benefited.
The United States, particularly
the States along the eastern
| and western seaboard will pro-
fit blythe completion of the canal
to a wonderful extent; the mer-
chantmarine thathas lying
idle will receive an impetus
the like of which has not been
felt in years. Freight could be

We have just received an
other invoice of the celebrated
Dietz Oil Stoves, the same
now extensively used in Homo
lulu and which give universal
satisfaction. As a fuel, coal
oil is extensively used in the
United States and here on &C
count of its cheapness and be-
cause of the quickness with
which a meal may be cooked.
With the Dietz Oil Stove there
is absolutely no odor from the
burning oil and no danger of
explosion. The cost of oil for
a meal averages about three
cents and when you are
through heat and expense
ceases. We have never had a
word Of dissatisfaction from
parties using these stoves; on
the contrary we are told that
they will broil, fry, bake, and
roast equally as good as a |
wood Or coal stove and at less
expense.

cost by the laying of 5000 living stones on this

goodly number of Protestant commentators
hold this view. They think ST. Peter had a
special call and work as an Apostle. Oshau-

appears as the supporter of Christ's great work.
Jesus himself is the creator of the whole, Peter

Here are some facts and figures concern
ing the immortal Light Brigade, furnished
to an English magazine by Sir Evelyn
Wood:
Out of 673 of all ranks who rode down
the valley, only 1913 rode back. There were
$50 killed, 134 wounded, and Is prisoners,
the remainder being dismounted; for out of
673 horses, 475 were killed and AZ wounded.
The havoc and confusion among the Russian
troops are indescribable, and this accounts
for the number of dismounted men who
escaped. Several individuals of the leading
squadrons dashed on TO the banks of the
Tchernaya, one officer killing in succession,
near the river, the wheel, center, and lead
drivers of gun which the Russians were
endeavoring to carry Off Lieut.. Percy
Smith, Capt. Morris, and Lieut.. Sir William
