NatiOnalisln Gone Mad.

In latter days it is only necessary that
fair promise be given that any movement
shall appeal to the needless and volatile
phase of popular sentiment, to become
the rage, or as the reigning slang ex'
presses it, a fad with the newspapers
and with leaders in public life.
Beginning with the Corinto incident
and terminating in theV Venezuelan affair
we have the Monroe Doctrine thrust
forward in the most extravagant and
impossible interpretations and to the
view of any one not given over to the
vagary of indulgence in every reignlng
fad, it seems that the American people
are decidedly bent upon making asses
of themselves to surprising extent, both
in point of number and extravaganza of
expression.
We are as sound as the soundest
when tested in the doctrine, America
tor Americans" nor do we hesitate at
all to affirm our faith in the superior
resources, strength and greatness Of our
Nation; weagree also that our interests
b.ing the greatest among all the separate
peoples of the Western World our rights
and privileges are likewise greatest AID
that the practical application of those
rights and privileges consists in large
measure in guarding the welfare Of our
neighbors, to the end that the largest
possible portion Of the commerce of the
Americas may be interchanged and not
permitted to flow eastward to peoples
to whom these governments might,
through negligence Of those interests,
become tributary.
TO espouse every petty quarrel; to
stand sponsor for every government; to
interfere in every difference and to fare
up on every occasion when the represen
tative of some European government
presses Central or South American
for dollar or foot of land due him, lis
to run the risk of rendering ourselves
ridiculous in the eyes of European
statesmen: and there are European
statesmen, broad, liberal and sound
men; we should not make the mistake
Of assuming that our wisdom excels that
of the rest of mankind and we have
been plainly and truly told that our
Nationalism run mad, the extreme view,
is not and will not be accepted as a
correct and final proposition Of inter
national law.

ly in your cars, hotels and other places
where men happen to be-, and those pub
lie men who are preaching caution and
those newspapers which are trying to
cry down jingolsm, are openly slurred
at on all sides. Take your Congress-,
for instance, just as it is to, day. 1t
would not take dozen words from Lord
Salisbury to declare war against Great
Britain, although it would just as soon
declare war against any any other En-
ropean county that will furnish even
half provocation and I am certain that
the great majority Of your people would
receive such declaration with the wild
est joy. How do explain the existence
of this belligerent sentiment? do not.
I simply know that it exists, and l be
lieve that it is bound to result in war.
Similar waves of public sentiment have
often influenced against their wishes
the governments of monarchical ma
tions, but in a government like the u
nited States they are simply irresisti
ble."
It is expected that the free coinage
substitute for the House bond bill will
be voted on this week in the Senate
after the Utah Senators take their seat.
Its passage is regarded by rybody
as certain. Whether the Finance Com
mittee will then report the House tar
if bill, or the Davis Monroe Doctrine
resolution will be gwen the right of
way until di posed of is not yet appar-
ent. Senator Davis is away and is not
expected to return until next week
sometime. but that will not cause any
loss of time, as there are number Of
Senators who wish to speak on the res
olution before it is passed. 1t will be
passed, Notwithstanding assertions to
the contrary. Its opponents cannot
muster ten votes against 1t, and no one
need be surprised if it be allowed to be
adopted without division.

Washington Letter
FROM OUR REG LAR CORRESPONDENT

w " Ian
WASHINGTON, ID. c., January eth, 1896.
1.-The United States will within less
than FIVE years be at war with one OF
more Of the great European powers.
These words were spoken in the course
Of private conversation by promi-
nent member Of the Diplomatic Corps
in Washington. Continuing he said :
"This is no off hand assertion, but pre-.
diction made after the most careful IN
vestigatioL Of the state Of public opin,
ion in this country, and one which am
confident you will find correct. Your
people want war and what they want
they will get. How do | know they
want war? From observation, not only
in Washington, but in travelling around
and in every section where my country
has consular representation. You heard
the waves of applause, which the Vice
President could not check until they had
gone their course, when Senator Frey
declared himself in favor o. sending a
feet to Constantnople and making d.
rect demand upon the Sultan, instead
Of merely adopting resolution request
ing the European powers to compel the
Sultan to protect the Armenians. Well
that is the way it is all over your coun.
try. The most aggressive speeches or
editorials in your newspapers are the
ones that are commended the most loud.

Prizes on Patents.
How to get $500 and Perhaps
Make a Fortune.

We secure patents and to induce people to
keep track of their bright ideas We offer
prize of one hundred dollars to be paid on
the fret of every month to the person who
submits to US the most meritorious invention
during the preceding month. We will also
advertise the inyen,ion free of charge in the
National Recorder, "a weekly newspaper, pub.
lished in Washington, D. c., which has an
extensive circulation throughout the United
States ana is devoted to the interests Of in.
vcntOrs.
NOT so HARD AS 1T SEEMS.
The idea Of being able to invent something
trikes most people as being very difficult;
this de!usion the Company wishes to dispel.
1t is the simple things and small inventions
that make the greatest amount Of money and
the complex ones are seldom profitable. AL.
most everybody, at some time or another,
conceiycs an idea, which, if patented, would
probably be worth to HIM fortune. UnfOr.
tunatrly such ideas are usually dismissed
without thought. The simple Invention like
and :wn withou, breaking the passengers
back, the sauce pan, the collar button, the
nut lock, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel
are things that almost everyone sees some
way Of improving upon, and it is these kind
of inventions that bring the greatest returns
to the author.
The prize We offer at the end of each month
will be paid, whether the application has
been acted upon by the Patent Office or note
Every competitor must apply for patent on
his invention through US, and whether he Sc
cures the prize or not, the inventor wi II hav

THE PARK THEATER.

National Iron Works Place n Second At
tachment on Box flee Receipts.
The Park Theater on Grove street, be-
tween Polk street and Van Ness avenue,
suecumbed last evening to the second at
tachment placed on the receipts of the
box office by Marshutz Il Cantrell, pro-
prietors OF the National Iron Works of this
City.
Thursday evening of last week this firm
of machinists got the Sheriff to seize the
box office, and tue sum of $40 rs was then
obtained by the firm. The attachment
was released and business was resumed by
William e. Johns, lessee and manager of
the theater.
Last evening the Sheriff again appeared
on the scene. The playgoers who had ex-
pected to pay 25 cents each for the Joy OF
seeing the only Dan Mccarthy, Irish
coined ian, as the pride of Mayo" were
grievously disappointed to read an an,
nouncement on the outside that the
theater would be closed until next Mon.
day evening.
The amount of money due the National
Iron Works, according to the attachment
papers, is $72.

CAPS THE CLIMAX.
O'Brien's July Clearance Opens to an
Immense Crowd and Is Pronounced
the Greatest Bargain Sale of All.

the Greatest Bargain Sale of All.
AS usual, O'Brien's annual July bargain
sale openedto an immense crowd yesterday
And "a crowd" at O'Brien's means a vast
number of people; for any one of the many
broad aisles of the firms mammoth estab-
lishment will accommodate many more
than an average retail house. But the
crowd was there and its magnitude belied
the general belief that every one is out of
town-in fact, as Mr.. Brien said, 'it un-
mistakably proved that there are always
plenty of buyers if the inducements are
strong enough"
In this case there was no question as to
the unusual character OF the inducements,
the entire remainder of the firms spring
and summer stock OF dry goods and cloaks
having been marked down for clearance
to figures that in many cases were less
than half original selling prices.
Nothing-not even the latest styles and
novelties-was spared from the sacrifice,
and the eagerness of the throngs that sur
rounded every table and lined every
counter when the store was visited in the
afternoon showed that buyers thoroughly
recognized the unusual opportunity pre-
sented, ana fully realized that the goods
could not last long at the ''giving away
prices prevailing.
Judging from its auspicious opening and
the radical measures adopted for its con-
tinuance the ultimate success of this great
sale becomes an assured fact, and 1t bids
fair to be long bered as the greatest
of all o Brien's great bargain sales.

THE LABOR UN .ONS.

The Plasterers Have Admitted Appren-
tices Into Their Organization.
The Building Trades Council new work
ing card goes into effect to-day, and orders
have been issued to all journeymen In the
affiliated unions to turn in their old cards
and secure new ones
Notice has been sent to all contractors
that no union plasterers will cover work
done by non union fathers.
The Plasterers' Union met last night and
decided to admit apprentices into the
union free, but the young men will have
to pay 25 cents a month dues. Each ap-
prentice must serve four years before he
can become full fedged journeyman, and
no contractor is allowed to employ more
than one apprentice. Even then he must
have been contracting at least year.
The ironm olders' new officers were in
stalled last evening. Great preparations
