Votes taken on the amendments
have little doubt the committees rec
ommendation will be favorable to the
measure when reported. The bill has
been perfected and would have been
reported but for the opposition
of Senator Chandler, who is antagon-
istic to the pooling bill. He made a
speech before the committee denounc-
ing the railroad pools as trusts.
THE RESOLUTION.
Representative Lewis. Democrat, of
Washington, endeavored TO bring be-
fore the house the Cuban question as
privileged question on the ground
that it concerned our foreign rela-
tions.
Lewis offered a resolution declaring
it to be the sense of congress that the
belligerency of the Cuban insurgents
should be recognized, Speaker Reed
declared it out of order, and on ap-
peal the honse by vote of 81 to 81
sustained the speaker. The house
then adjourned until Monday.

this creature, feared by Boston and
New York, made sport of by Eastern
pennya-liners, repudiated by Chicago,
is more in evidence than any other sort
of man, and he seems to be pretty
sensible sort of fellow.
Will he remain with us. or will he
go like the summer girl? Will he
come with every heated term? Will
he give new character to the streets
and to the Offices? The costume, twill
be said, is not picturesque, but it is
simple, and conveys the impression of
work, and of comfort as we'll. The
man in his shirt sleeves is not a des-
perate character. He is not profane
man except in the matter of heat. He
is more active than the fellows who
wear coats, and it is only from the
esthetic standpoint that people are
called upon to consider him. He is
here. What shall we do with him?

TIE man in his shirt sleeves, who it
was supposed was q permanentresident
of the backwoods and rural village dis
tricts, has invaded the city. He has, in
the language of the street, taken the
town" He prevails everywhere. He
is in the majority on the board Of
trade: he occupies nearly every down
town office; he walks on the street
with an air of boldness and confidence,
with his coat on his arm; he sits on the
front steps of some of the best and most
pretentious residences; he brazenly
and defiantly rides on the street cars,
and, in fact he literally possesses the
town.
There have been times when Boston.
New York. and Chicago frowned on
the man in his shirt sleeves and ruled
him out Of respectable society. There
have been times when it would have
been regarded as a breach of etiquette
for man in his shirt sleeves TO receive
callers in his office, and an inexcusable
breach of propr iety for him to appear
at the dinner table. MI the rules
were against man taking off his coat
in the street, or riding among ladies
on the street cars in his shirt sleeves.
But within the last week all rules bear
ing or this question of etiquette and
propriety in Chicago have been sus-
pended.
The intense heat has made any sort
of coat u burden. The women have
run to shirt waists and the men to
shirt sleeves. The sun has shown no
courtesy to any one, and the largest
products of the heated term are ice
cream soda and other cooling drinks.
and the man in. his shirt sleeves. The
cooling drinks were expected, but the
other invasion came as a surprise. The
question is, What will we do with the
man in his shirt sleeves:
The city of course knew that such a
fellow was in existence because the ma
tiyes had caught sight of him and
some New Iorkers and other foreign
ers had insisted that they had seen
him In Chicago on the front steps and
on the streets. People who lived here
before the fire resented this, and peo-
pie who came here after the fire -coldly
ssid, ''1t Was no such thing;'' and now

A Broad Foundation.

The government statement of ex-
ports and imports for the fiscal wear
ending June 80, 1897, out, and it makes
ii most gratifying showing. Our i'm
ports were very heavy, especially
during the past six months, owing to
the tendency of tariff changes, but the
for the year are the largest on
recored. We have not only. sold
abroad large Quantities OF grain, meat,
cotton and other agricultural products
but our exports of manufactured ar
ticles show up in amazing proportions.
The statement foots up rs follows: Ex-

foreign merchandise. 81 ,051. 9S7. .06l. as

The imports OF merchandise for the
same period aggregate SI64, 374, 905,
leaving the excess OF exports COR the
year S2S7, ,6l3, 1856, which represents the
trade balance in our favor. The ex-
cess of exports is about $23, 900, 600 oyer

One of the provisions of the
new tariff law provides that
tourists returning from a foreign
trip shall be entitled to pass only
500 worth of clothing free thro'
the custom house, and there was
big kick made by the passen-
gers on the steamer Majestic
wher they were compelled to put
$4,000 in duties on excess bag

had not been unduly stimulated by the
been much more largely in favor OF the
4 United States. The figures as given
will convey some idea of the wealth
and resources of our country. We
have, according to estimates, more
than two years supply of wool and
woolen goods on hand: we have a
years supply of raw sugar, and we
| have immense surplus accumulations of
other articles on which the duty is ex-
lpected to be raised. Eut notwith-
Standing these extra importations we
merchandise and the foreigners have
| been obliged to send here net import
of $45, 100000 in gold to partially make
up the balance. The rest of the in
| debtedness of foreign countries to the
United States on account OF exports
stands as a credit balance in our favor
| If it were not for the immense sums
spent abroad by American travellers
and residents, and the annual pay
ments for interest on bonds and other
of our obligations held abroad, the
United States would gradually absorb
the wealth of the world. It.may come
to that some day. The American
bonds and other securities held abroad

Americans will come to live more at
home and to travel more in their own
country, as we develop in arts and
science and stable institutions. and the
craze for foreign exploration and ex
ploitation dies out.
For the balance Of the present year
and indeed for the whole fiscal year of
1878, our exports are quite likely TO
be even larger than for the past fiscal
year. The price of wheat is now about
20 cents bushel higher than it was
year ago, and the demand for it is
good, and bids fair to be better. We
shall harvest larger crops than in 1886
and the foreign demand for them,
owing to short supplies and poor crops
abroad, as we have heretofore ex-
planned, is sharper, Notwithstanding

and u large percentage of the outside
world, requires an immense quantity

new era of prosperity in this country

passage of the tariff bill ought TO mark
a signal upturn in business. A great
many people desire financial legisla-
tion as we'll, but the fact is that we can
get along without any additional finan-
cial legislation. The country was
prosperous for quarter OF a century
under the existing financial system,
and it can be prosperous for many
Years more without any material

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.


WASHINGTON, D. c., July 80. 1897.
Nations do not go to war with
out consent of their rulers, and
the rulers of the United States
have the very best reasons for
knowing that the rulers of Japan
will not consent to go to war with
the United States on account of
the annexation of Hawaii, just to
please the few l1ot-heads who
think that because Japan licked
China she can lick all creation.
1t is because of this knowledge
that European-made reports OF
of warlike intentions on the part
of Japan have attracted so little
attention in Washington. The
government of more than one
European nation would gladly
see war between the United
States, aud there is little doubt
that their emissar1es have been
at work in Japan, but there will
be no war, Japan has every rea-
son for wishing to keep on good
terms with us, and none what
ever for fighting us and getting
badly whipped.
President Mckinley made him
self a place among the household
gods OF those government en1-
ployes who are in the classified
service when he amended the
rules so that none of them can be
dismissed except for cause, and
then only after they have been
given an opportunity to defend
themselves, which gives every
office IN the classified service d
life tenure, if their holders do
their work and behave themselves.
This may not please everybody,
but there is no discount about its
pleasing the office holders and
their families. Mr.. Mckinley
also extended the civil service
rules to the employees of o5 small
custom houses which were left
out when President Cleveland's
blanket extension of the rules
was made. Then he excepted
several employees in each customs
district and each internal revenue
district from the operations Of
the civil service rules, the excep-
tiofls being those who hold conf
Dental relations with the collect
ors. The last will be more likely
to please the practical politicians
of his party than the first.
In the batch OF appointments
made by President Mckinley just
before his departure from Wash
ington was the name of Moses p.
Handy, of ILL.,, to be special
Commissioned for the U. S. for
the Paris International Exposi-
tion of 1900. This appointment
eiided contest in which an
unusually large number of prom
ifient newspaper men were inter
ested. NJ. H. De Young, the
Msll-known San Francisco editor,
Turner County herald. (Hurley, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-19??, 1897-08-05


was Handy's rival for this place,
and it, was nip and tuck as to
which would get it until Handy
brought his persuasive tongue
and his whiskers to Washington.
Then Handy's stock began to
rise and MIR. De Young being in
Paris was probably unaware Of
the turn in the game until
Handy's whiskers had landed him
winner. Although this appoint
ment is only a temporary one,
authorized by clause III the
deficiency approprla ito II bill
passed at the recent extra session
of congress, it is the general
belief that the special commits
sioner will be one of the five
commissioners authorized by a
bill that has passed the senate
and will be certain to pass the
house next winter, and they will
draw salaries for not less than
four years; hence the rivalry for
the appointment.
Orders have been issued by the
navy department. to have the
big battle ship Indiana sent to
Halifax, Nova Scotia, to be docked
and cleaned. because it was con-
sidered dangerous to try to dock
her at Port Royal, S. C. Actions
of this sort attract more attten-'
ton from foreigners than from
Americans. 1t looks odd to see a
country that aspires to d leading
place among the naval powers of
the world without proper docking
facilities for the vessels it has.
The New York dry dock is big
enough to accommodate the Indi-
ana, but it is out of order, if
indeed, it can fairly be said to
have ever been III order, although
it is comparatively new.
Notwithstanding the occasional
outbreaks OF jingoism, the people
of the United States as. a whole
have no i'll feeling towards Eng
land. There is at present in
Washington an intelligent Eng
l1shnan--Dr, ]. II. Roberts, of
Hastings---who thus bears witness
to how Englishuen regard US:
"There is no ill-will among the
English people against the people
1of the United States, and / do
not believe that the mass of the
citizens OF this country bear an
tlufriendly feeling against the
mother land. We l1aye some
times thought that certain of YOUR
/ jingo politicians loved to slap
Britain in the face, but we do not
belieye that they represent the
true sentiment OF the American
nation"
!
The new Bolivian minister to
the United States who arrived in
Washington this week, is trying
/ to head some of the Alaska bound
gold hunters towards his country.
He says Bolivia has more gold
than the Klondvke region, but
the klondylse-or- bust men are not
likely to change their destination
on his say SO.
The number of recess appoint
lnents made by President Nc
Kinley before he left Washington
was Out Of all proportion to the
expectations Of the waiting and
hoping crowd.
