CARRYING THE WAR INTO AFRICA

1t is supposed that Reed of Maine has
New England at his back for the presi-
Dental nomination by the Republicans.
On account OF the unknown or hostile at
titude of Mckinley on the silver question
he can hardly expect support for the
nomination from the south and west 1t
has therefore become his tactics to invade
New England. He has already effected a
landing in Connecticut, and which way
he will move will be speedily known.
The Republican members of the Massa.
chusetts legislature we're polled the other
day as to their preferences for president
and they were nearly unanimous for
Reed. That state may be the Carthage
toward which the Buckeye Scipio is
moving. Massachusetts, is the empire
state of the northeast and her action will
be influential upon the other states. New
will be difficult to detach them from
Reed. That section has not had presi-
dent since Franklin Pierce, who was
elected fortythree years ago. and since
that time but one presidential candidate,
who was Blaine in 1884 and he failed TO
be elected. New England has had but
two presidents and she is ambitious for
recognition.
Mckinley has commenced early and
the indications are that he will make an
aggressive campaign from this time till
the convention closes it's labors. He is
against the field and probably the field
will be against him. His rallying cry is
the tariff as might be expected, for he is
the exponent of the protective theory. 1t
woui'i be unsafe 10 suppose that the Re-
publican leaders are not aware of the
strength of the silver sentiment, or to
conclude that they will not maneuver to
break its force. In his Hartford speech,
for the hundredth time Mckinley hoisted
the flag Of protection. and he evidently
intends to make that issue so conspic-

NOT OUR OBJECT IN LIFE

The following from the Chicago Times
Herald most accurately states the policy
that should be pursued by this country in
its South American relations:
"We may well believe the report from
Mexico that the suggestion of United
States protectorate is not well received IN
that capital or in Central America. The
suggestion is not highly regarded here'
save by few high pressure jingoists in
congress, who think, or pretend to think,
that Uncle Sam ought to take possession
of the entire weastern hemisphere, either
as his own in fee simple or as his ward
at law. Uncle Sam has his hands full at
home maintaining the spirit of national
union over an immense territory contain
ing loco, 900 people of diverse interests
and largely Heterogeneous traditions, as
pirations and habits of lite. No one
doubts that in the end he will succeed
and that the product will be nation at
once the most powerful and the most in
teresting in all the records of ethnology.
But meantime he is not to be disturbed
or distracted from his main purpose.
''As for the Mexican, Central American
and South American republics, they too
have their work cut out for them-and it
is their own. Uncle Sam, under cover of
the Monroe doctrine, undertakes to keep
an eye on his smaller neighbors and see
that their several effo,ts for autonomy
are not disturbed by European interfer
ence. But it would be mere sentimental
humbug to pretend that this protection is
accorded from any motive less selfish
than that of self-defense. We neither
envy nor fear multiplicity of small repub-
lies for our southern neighbors, but it
would be another matter for the Ameri-
cas-, North or South, to become play
ground for European diplomacy or hot
house for imperialism.
"No. no; Venezuela can take care of
itself and work out its own salvation
without interference from Uncle Sam,
beyond some timely intimations to such
cormorant land thieves as Great Britain
that they must not steal territory on this
side the Atla1tic.
This government was primarily organ
lied for the protection of the rights and
furtherance of the interests of its own
people. and the attempt oy certain set
of flamboyant politicians and editors to
divert 1t from this original purpose
should pc most emphatically rebuked.

SOME QUERIES

This is McKinleys definition of the
doctrine of protection which will un-
doubtedly constitute the backbone of the
Republican fight of 1896. Pin it in your
hat. admit free of duty all products
that we cannot supply; put such duties
upon foreign products which we might
supply as will make it possible to pro-
duce them here, paying fair wages to
labor and insuring fair profits to business;
and impose such duties on luxuries as
will yield needed revenue. Pasadena
News.
We would like to know by what method
in tariff act the paying of fair wages
to labor and insuring of fair profits to
business is to be provided for. Is it
possible that the law of supply and de-
mand, in so far as it relates to labor and
wages, is suspended during the era of
Mckinley legislation? We would also like
to know why, if protection is productive
of such apparently equitable conditions,
in the states like Ohio, Pennsylvania,
New York and Massachusetts,. that are
possessed of the chief beneficiaries of this
ms-called American system. wages were
reduced to the minimum point and what
they designate as profits" reached the
maximum. How is it that in these breed
ing places of protection strikes against
reduced pay. sweating shops and ten
ement misery for the many became
SO fearfully tangled up with mon
urnental fortunes, gilded ease and
princely mansions for the few? And,
by the way. what is the economic
difference between labor and business?
When is labor divorced from business
and when does business cease to be labor?
business protectionists have in mind
is special privilege, and what they
define as profits are tributes paid by a
people not yet emancipated from econ
omic ignorance?
And is it by some occult method the
details of which are known onlv to the
initiated, that tariff so adjusted as to
admit free of duty all products that we
cannot supply :" and that viii put such
duties upon foreign products which we
might supply as will make it possible to
produce them here can furnish the
necessary revenue? To an ordinary
mortal not versed in the creed OF the

OUR RESURR 2CTl0N
Reverend Heber Newton Delivers the Third
of His Sermons

NEW YORK, May 5.-In the church of
All Souls today Rev. DR.. Ileber Newton
delivered the third of his present series
I sermons on Our Resurrection i'll the
Light of the Resurrection OF Jesus.
During the course of his sermon DIR.
Newton said: "If we read the story OF
the resurrection of Jesus Christ we shall
see in it type of every other resurrec-
ton that is to follow, we are constrained
to think in some way about the resurrec-
tion life if we are then to believe in it all.
Such thoughts as we can form seem TO
me to be Illuminated from stories of the
living Jesus. The life to come cannot

no bodiless existence. Everything that
lives clothes itself III some form or other.
more or less finite matter posing these
forms. but matter of some sort, and there
is clothing of everything living. We may
be sure that the dead living still, live not
merely in disembodied existence; they
have bodies of their own, though
our lives may not ordinarily see them.
That is clear in the story of rising Jesus.
The body that shall be will not be some
wholly new body, else the continuity of
life VIII be broken. 1t is an absolute ne
cassity that in the life beyond personal
identity shall continue. That means that
in some way or other there shall be a con-
tnuaBce OF tnat which is truly vital and
essential to our present existence. There
is within us such a spiritual body.
The mysteries of clarvoyance or of
mind reaoing-these and other we'll au-
tnenticated powers of men-are not power
OF outer body but powers of some inner
organization transformed by the mind.
Then again we see illumined in tho
risen Jesus. At the touch of death the
outer tieshy body falls away. and the en-
tire spiritual body is freed for new life.
1t may draw around itself from the body
which it leaves or from the spiritual ele-
ments in the encompaosing ether the
elements Of new and finer material body,
or in ways which we cannot even dream
of, the mystery of being clothed upon,
may accomplish itself. At the moment
of death it seems to me the spirit posses

VENETIAN WATER CARNIVAL
Santa Cruz Preparing for the Great Event-The
Director General

SANTA CRUZ, May 5.-Santa Cruz is
becoming more and more enthusiastic
over the proposed Neneti water car
nival. All day committees have been at
work formulating plans which, when they
materialize , will eclipse anything of the
kind ever seen in this starte. Among
these plans is the building of Il barge on
the river. on which the queen will land
amid a blaze of fireworks and the illumi-
nation OF thousands of colored ncandes
cent lights. All along the river front
seats are to be built commanding Il view
of the entire scene. At the head of affairs
is J. P Smith, a wealthy gentleman, who
will spare no amount of money to make
the carnival Il success. Behind him are
the citizens, who will contribute literally.
Mr.. Smith has attended all the car
nivals in Europe, and will have the best
features of each ncorporated in the car
nival to be given here. A bureau of in
formation will be established tomorrow
evening and a monster mass meeting will
be held at the pavilion to discuss the

WHICH VESSEL VAST?
The Question as to the Identity of a Wrecked
Sealer

PORT TOWNSEND. May 5.-Concern-
ing the identity of the wrecked schooner
White and the loss of fifteen men in
Alaska, Engineer Biggs, who brought the
news here. says he was under the impress
sion the vessel was the George r. White.
although it may have been the c. G..
White of San Francisco.
To confirm the latter statement he says
he now remembers positively that the
survivor who arrived at Kodiak island
stated that the vessel fitted out in San
Francisco. 1t seems quite possib now
that the lost craft is the San Francisco
schooner, which is of so tons burden ard
carried a crew OF nearly thirty men.
The Seattle schooner is about 35 tons and
is too small to carry enough boats for
twenty eight seamen. Biggs left Kodiak
hurriedly Just after the news of the disas
ter reached here and aside from carrying
meager particulars of the wreck, did not
pay much att,nt ol to the wreck of the
vessel other than that she was called the
White.
The steamer Topeka is due from Alaska
tomorrow and probably more definite
news concerning the White will be had.

are compelled TO import, and threatened
the class of articles that we might pro-
duce here with tax so high they could
not come into the country and compete,
and consequently stay out, paying no tax

prove a very poor revenue raiser.
These are some of the propositions that
the people are going to pin in their hats.
