GIGANTIC COMBINE.

An alliance between two of the most
powerful and wealthy interests in
America has just been contaminated,
according to recent kilograms. Rock
Teller and Carnegie have sealed tbs ir
compact of interests by contract run
ming for fifty years. An incident of
the compact is the delivery by Rockfel-
Ter to Carnegie of 100000 tons Of
Mesaba ore per year for fifty years.
This is believed to mean war on the
balance of the trade, as it is not at all
likely the Carnegie company would ac-
cept such a long time contract of
purchase if others were permitted to
enjoy like advantages. Neither is it
true that Rockefeller, as producer Of
iron ore and seller Of the same, would
antagonize all his other customers for
the sake Of a single one unless there
was some great object to be attain

was a decrease of more than 9 per cent
as compared with 1890. AS The News
has pointed out before, there ia
nothing surprising about the
heavy vote in the pivota
states as the activity OF the campaign
was we'll calculated to bring out the
reserve vote. The total vote of the
country was -, 933, 1863, but the
eleventh census, taken six years ago,
showed the presence OF 10, $40, 81 males
of voting age in the country. The heavy
rates of increase in states carried by
Bryan are Texas % per cent, Missouri
%, Tennessee 81, Wyoming 2l, Monta
Da -, North Carolina IS. The big in
creases for Mckinley are Kentucky 80
per cent, Illinois, -, Ohio 20, Mich
igan 20, Indiana IS, Pennsylvania 10.
Average increase in the six Bryan
states p. 80 per cent; average increase
in six Mckinley states 81 so per cent.

BRYAN WAS NOT ELECTED.

A local paper, quoting from Senator
Aliens recent speech in the senate,
asks the question, twas Bryan elect
ed?" The Dallas News in replying to
Senator Aliens speech says:
Mr.. Aliens animus is clearly shown
here. Why did he not extend his ex-
amples and add these: Harrison car
ried Nebraska in 1892 by 1898, and
Mckinley received 1888 more votes
than Harrison received, yet Bryan
carried Nebraska. Harrison carried
Washington in 1892 by 6658, and Nc
Kinley received 2114 votes more than
Harrison received, yet Bryan carried
Washington. Harrison carried Wyo-
ming in 1892 by 1872 and Mckinley re-
ceived 1918 more votes than Harrison
received, yet Bryan carried Wyoming.
Harrison carried South Dakota in 1892
by 1914, and Mckinley received 6I54
more votes than Harrison received, yet
Bryan carried South Dakota Cleve-
land carried Missouri in 1892 by Al ,4S0,
and Mckinley received SO, 542 more
votes than Cleveland received, yet
Bryan carried Missouri. Cleveland
carried North Carolina in 1892 by 81
600, and Mckinley received %, 271 more
votes than Cleveland received, yet
Bryan carried North Carolina. Cleve-
Lar carried Tennessee in 1892 by
33,543, and Mckinley received 1899
more votes than Cleveland received,
yet Bryan carried Tennessee. These
instances are merely cited to show that
Senator Allen is trying to exploit
mares nest. The st. Louis Republics
Washington correspondent, comment
ing on the Allen resolution, says:
The extraordinary increase in vote in
the so-called pivotal states was regard
ed as extremely suspicious. Arkansas
and Texas, to which states more immi-
grafton was diverted during the past
four or five years than any other states
in the union, show no material increase
in voting strength, while there is an
extraordinary increase in the voting
strength in states like Illinois, Ohio,
Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, and Minneso-
Ia.
Yet Texas showed an increase of
1900 votes over 1892, or gain of 20
per cent. This is larger ratio Of in
crease than was shown by any of the
larger than that of any other state in
the union except Kentucky, where the
campaign was the hottest, most bitter
and more doubtful, perhaps, than in
any state So far from Minnesota

JAPAN'S EXPANSION.
How She Feels In Regard to Aus |

How she reels In Regard AUS
tralia.
The German papers inform England
that there are other besides English
speaking races imbued with the desire
for new territory. 1t would be inter
esting to know in how far our German
contemporaries acknowledge the right
to expand of nations outside Of Europe.
Japan, to the horror of the European
element in the far east, turns her atten-
ton toward the Indian ocean. We con-
dense the following account by Mr.. Aud
ley COOte in the Argus, Melbourne:
while in a car with sc 7eral Japanese
officers they were conversing about
Australia, saying that it was a fine,
large country, with great forests and
excellent soil for the cultivation of rice.
coffee, tea and other tropical products.
The whites settled in Aus tralia, so
thought these officers. are like the dog
in the manager. Some one will have to
take good part of Australia to develop
it, for it is a pity to see so fine coun-
try lying waste. England is useful
enough nation as an ally to Japan, but
if any iu-feeling arose between the two
countries it would be a wise thing to
send some battleships to Australia and
annex part of it. | found that this is
the prevalent opinion in Japan, and il
IS certainly not surprising that this
small country, teeming with its $4,000
600. should regard Australia, with only
100000. with a certain amount of
covetousncss.
Commenting upon this, the Argus
says:
I'VE have not formulated or even dis
cussed any rational policy to guide Us
in our dealings with these eastern
neighbours; consequently the attitude
of Australia must be enc OF simple
aloofness. MIR. Coote's tidings are an
eloquent homily to Queensland as to
the necessity for federation and re
ininder to the colonies generally how
precarious the position of Australia
would be were it not an integral part OF
the British empire. While that is -
menace can only arise to Australia in
the event of 4 great war in which the
naval Strength of the empire is over
taxed. in such case Japan. enrolled
upon the side Of EngIand's enemies,
would he an important factor in the
sum from the Australian point of view"
The Australians. therefore, like the
SDaniarus, are not inclined to do moro
than take note of the fact that danger
may threaten them from Japan. 1t is
different with the Dutch. They talk of
taking the bull by the horns. Prof.
Schlegel writes in the Dagblad, The
Hague, as follows:
The only way to guard against at
tacks upon the colonies by the Jap
anese is to drive them out of FOrmOsa.
Holland must take possession of For
mosa. The remembrance of Dutch rule
has not yet been eradicated in that
island, and both Chinese and natives
would welcome our return as putting an
end to the reigning anarchy. True,
Japan wiUld not voluntarily give up the
island. But that is not necessary. Per
haps Russia and France, and even Eng
land, would Join Holland in dispossess-
ing the japanese. The seed sOwn by
Dutch ministers and teachers two
centuries ago would then speedily bear
fruit.'-Literary Digest.
