THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
UnfOunded Cabinet RumOr-Secretary
Gresham Reported Better-PrOb-
ability that Income Tax Law
Will BE Sustained.

Washington, May lit can be stated
on the authority Of the parties concerned
that the reported change in the head OF
the state department, by which Secretary
Gresham will be succeeded by Don M.
Dickinson, is not within the range OF
probability, provided Mr.. Gresham's g
health improves as expected. Should his
health compel his withdrawal from the
cabinet later, Mr.. Dickinson doubtless
might be asked to accept the office.
INCOME TAX LAW PROBABLY SAFE.
The justices of the supreme court held
a consultation to-day. II is believed
though not definitely known that Justice
Jackson voted to uphold tho income tax
law and that a majority ot,the court so
decide.
PASSED A COMFORTABLE NIGHT.
Secretary Gresham passed comfort
able night and day and is resting quietly
this afternoon.

Years business.

Taking the country as whole, indus
trially and commercially, the closing
year has not been satisfactory. The
second year after n panic year should
show decided recuperntion. The year
1898 was a panic year and the recovery
was due in 1895; but 1895 brought more
failures than the country has ever had
except In 1893
The people have tried to accommodate
themselves to the new conditions forced
on them by Democratic tariff policy
and this is one of the conspicuous and
instructive results. Uuder the new
tariff we have bought more freely from
foreign producers and they have de-
clined to fulfill the Democratic prophe-
6ies by refusing to buy more freely from
US. Our good gold has had to go abroad
to support foreign labor and enterprise,
and home labor and enterprise have had
to go short.
The American farmer has failed to
realize the promised increased demand
for his products. but he has realized ex-
trehely low prices for what he had to
sell. There have been spurts in some
manufacturing lines, but there has not
been the steady. solid Improvement that
was hoped for. The country has done
It's best TO adjust itself to the new thrift
conditions, but as a government and as
a people It has come out at the little end
OF the horn.
How could 1t be otherwise with other
countries selling to us so much that we
could produce for ourselyes7 Demo
cratic policy has set this country back
ut least ten years, and It will
be two years before we can begin to
gather up, for fresh start.

are solid for the Ohio and Lake Erie

Intelllgencer's special OF last Friday re-
garding the attitude OF Senator Elkins
and tho West Virginia delegation. Tho
Dispatch quotes the Intelllgencer ar
tlcle detailing the senator's plan con-
corning river improvements and the ca
nal and backs II up with the following
editorial comment;
"The Keen interest OF West Virginia
I'm waterway improvement and the ship
canal project Is shown by the stnte-
ment OF Senator $. b. Elking, through
the Washington correspondence OF the
Wheeling Intelligencer, and the inter-
view with State Senator Worley' OK
that state, given In our local columns
1T was to be expected that West Vir.
ginia would see her interest in the canal
project. But II is gratifying to note
that while II has been necessary TO
argue and agitate In other sections,
West Virginia has spontaneously per-
ceived the value OF the waterway pro-
Ject and brings Its solid support to II,
almost without the asking. In doing 30
her Representatives show their ability
to seize upon every opportunity for the
industrial greatness OF their state. II
is true, as Senator Worley says, that
the route for their northern coal fields
TO reach the best markets lies through
the Monongaheln and ship canal TO tho
lakes, and they will share with West
eTn Pennsylvania the most direct bene.
FITS that In their general form Will
spread over the entire northwest.
THE support OF Senator Elkins and
the West Virginia delegation will be
welcome aid 10 the canahproject. sena-
tor Elklns' waterway programme is an
ambitious one. comprising q free Mo-
nongnhela from Fairmont to Pitts
burgh, the ship canal TO the lakes, and
the slack. watering OF the Ohio to Gin
cInnatl. Such system Of waterways
for the region which originates more
heavy freights than any other like sec
ton In the world would be q vast bene-
1T, and West Virginia can count on
Western Pennsylvania rs standing side
by side with her on that platform,
ut will hardly be reasonable to ex-
pect the immediate fulhllment of so
large n programme. But with water
way that permits the coal of West Vir-
ginln to be taken TO the lakes. the i'm.
provement OF the Ohio, as indeed OF oil
the principal rivers of the mississippi
valley, will follow as an inevitable re-
suit OF commercial dynamlcs,"

The published statements concerning
acetylene gas have aroused wide and
keen interest. 1.-THE new illumanant be
half as good as 1t is said to be, tits the
boon for which civilized man has been
waiting, II seemed that capital and In
telligence had combined to put on the
market light superior to anything we
have and at much less cost Now II be-
gins to look as though acetylene gas
way be more stock-jobbing scheme
than a solid business fact.
The Engineering and Mining Journal
asks the company some pointed cues
tions and more than intimates that
somebody well on the inside is trying to
unload on the dear public patent rights
which have no foundation. to operate a
process that will prove commercial de-
lusion.
Among other questions the company
Is asked whether It is true that 1t knows
that ealcle carbide, from which aeety-
lene ls produced, cannot be made at
seven times the cost claimed by the
company. The company is called on to
prove that the rights 1t is selling have
intrinsic value and that by its process
II is possible to produce "acetylene at
figures that give 1t commercial import
ance,"
When publication OF character takes
hold in this way 1t is a suggestion to the
less informed TO be sure of their ground
before they put their good money into
rights" that may prove only dazzling
delusion. The company which has the
rights for sale viii help itself greatly by
showing practically that 1t has some
thing of real practical value. II 1t has
this at fair price there will be demand
enough for 1t TO make tho business
profitable.

Nobody knows better than Captain
General Marines dc Campos that not
withstandlng tho reception he was
given In Havana there are thousands in
that city who would hail with Joy the trl-
umph OF the patriot cause, These thou
sands,have their reasons for seeming to
stand by him. They do not wish to be
suspected of sympathiElng with the Gu,
ban cause and they do not want the city
sacked. They hope for a free Cuba but
are not eager to lay sacrifices on that
altar,
We saw a good deal Of this during our
own civil war There were thousands
In the city OF Baltimore, for example
who prayed for the success of the Con-
federato cause, but they did not want
their own city included in the area Of
active operations
campos makes tho best of the show
ing that is made to him, but he 10 not
deceived. He understands the sltua-
ton, and We may be sure that he does
not neglect TO keep Madrid lhtoFHeu'
The uprising Is by far the most serious
in the history of tho island. Every day
II gains and adds to the favorable i'm
preston 1t has made on the world
The patriots cOldly refuse to step out
in the open and oblIge the government
forces with pitched battle. They go
ahead with their own plan OF campaign
destroying the sources OF the govern
ment's revenue and giving disease am
pie opportunity TO waste the poor fell
lows whom Spain sends over by the tens
OF thousands,
The perfunctory plaudits OF the Ha-
vanese will not turn the head OF the vet
eran Spanish commander. From the
Plaza de Armas he turns his eyes to the
swamps and mountains, where the pa
triot natives can fght and hide and live,
and where his men can only die. It is a
sorry situation for man of the fame,
ability and heart. of Martinez de
Campos.

The Kentucky Horror.

The dispatches have given the ricken-
ing details OF the Kentucky horror. The
brutal devlltry of the thing can hardly
be equnled in the history OF this coun-
try, So far as we know this is the first
time that q mob has deliberately set
upon a woman and burned her to death.
No matter what her oftense was, saw
ages might have been expected to show
some mercy to woman in her condi-
tion.
Usually no punishment follows these
lynchlngs punishment being out Of tho
question where the lynchlng is done by
best citizens" backed by public opin-
ion. Is It possible that the sentiment
OF the community approves this apphll-
Ing crime? There Is a good opportunity
to determine this question.
The criminals. did not take the trouble
to disguise themselves. II the nuthorl-
tics want them 1t is probable that It will
be ensy TO lay hold Of them. The next
question Ia whether u jury of their
neighbors will convict them Of murder.
The fate of the woman-burners will
show whether public sentiment en-
dorses or abhors the deed.
A community which allows so mon
tsrous thing to go unpublished can
have no more civilization than thin
veneer,

Governor Morton, 1t is said, will de-
eide this week whether he will be can
didate for the presidency. Having
looked over the field in his own state
and satisfied himself that he can have
the support OF solid delegation. It is
believed that he has about determined
to permit his candidacy to be an
nouneed.
In addition to his strength at home.
the New York governor sis assured of
receiving earnest and enduring support
from the delegations Of Georgia and
west virginia" TO say nothing OF the
other states which have not yet de-
clared their intentions.
Governor Morton Is very highly re-
spected in West Virginia. and II It shall
be the judgement of the national con-
vention that he is the best man to bear
the Republican standard he will have
no more loyal support than he will get
from West Virginia. We were not
aware. however. that there is any move
ment in this state for him or that. as
matters stand, he is likely to get the
delegation or any part OF II.
In this connection a dispatch from
jamestown. New York. has interest.
Fifty Republicans. described us the
leading party mcn of that place, have
signed q request to the Republicans OF
the district to send to the national con.
ventlon delegates pledged to vote for

sentiment in New York Whether It
viii be represented in the delegation
from that state is another question to
which time will develop the answer.

Cherished up for many'days,
Wishing for some novoftoy;
But when dlstributionscnme,
Every time II was theseame,
No watch. nor pistols, rings nor clocks,

Mother always gave to me,
Other boys would give me news
Ofwhat they'd get. mover told
Ny own sad luck, had the blues;
And while they'd brng, my peace I'D

For my own gift was in my shoes.
For whom the distribution came
Every tifno was the sAfnO;

Appreciation comes with years;

For costliest gift that boyish tears
Could plead for: let tho spoil nnbroken

Ever let II be the same:
No watch, nor Jewels want, nor clocks,
But Just a simple pair OF socks
