SUMMARY OF PRECEDING CHAP,

A famous surgeon of England has a
little son afflicted with an hereditary
throat trouble. BY most constant appli-
cation the surgeon discovers process of
surgery which relieves the trouble. This
makes him famous, but constant work
skaters his health For change of air
and scene he goes to Morocco, where he
lands in company with an adventurous
American. Whjl in Fez he receives
letters from Wenmany a brother ply
stefan, and from his wife, which indicate
to him that his son is ill, and causes him
to begin his adventurous journey home.

More ENCOURAGING.

In a recent interview with a
Chicago newspaper reporter, ex-
Governor Roswell p. Flower of New
York, who is a close observer, ex-
presses the opinion that the worst Of
the hard times is over, and that the
indications are favorable for an early
improvement in industrial and COM
mercial conditions. He encourages
the belief that Congress will soon
dispose of the tariff bill, and is OF
the opinion that recent court de-
cisiops, and the failure of attempts
to secure unfriendly legislation, have
combined to create a better feeling
in railroad circles, and tended to
strengthen railroad securities. Cap
ital, he thinks is becoming less
timid, and will seek avenues which
will largely increase the demand fol
labor. Whatever may be said OF
capital as an engine Of oppression
it must be admitted that without its
employment the workingman cannot
prosper, and any well founded pros
pect of a profitable employment Of
capital in industrial enterprises is
encouraging.

The Powers.

The so-called "powers" who early
in the existing trouble between
Turkey and Greece manifested their
sympathy with a barbarous power
against n weaker foe, but who graci-
ously offered their services as a medi-
ator to prevent the humiliation OF
the latter, have demonstrated their
insincerity by permitting the Turks
to carry on an aggressive warfare
pending an alleged armistice. With
Turkey, backed by the allied forces
of Europe, fighting them, the Greeks
are waging a more unequal contest
than that which characterizes the
war in Cuba. Some of the more en-
lightened powers of the Old World
occasionally get up a feeble remon-
STRANGE against a monstrous act on
the part of Turkey and then settle
back to ponder upon their presump-
ton in having done so. Why the
powers should sustain such an in
human monster as the Sultan of
Turkey in what he does is beyond
the comprehension of those who
place the cause of common human
ity above that of the expediency of
political power.

Manamaker Explains.

Some weeks ago John Wanna
maker, who was President Harrison's
Postmaster General, delivered a
speech which was seized upon by
the Democratic press as being an
arraignment of the administration
of Mckinley for the failure of an
early return of prosperity for the
country. Mr.. Wanamaker has
since come out with a statement to
the effect that he intended no reflec-
ton upon the President and cabinet,
but laying the blame for the continu-
alton of unsettled conditions where
it properly belongs-upon the
United States Senate. The dis
tinguished gentleman from Phila-
delphia insists that he remains all
tight politically, but admits that his
patience is being subjected to a severe
trial by the dilatory course of the
Senate. VIII the opposition press
make note of the fact that Wanna
maker has decided to remain with

Evolution on the Cuban Question.

There are now encouraging indi-
cations of a change for the better in
the attitude of President Mckinley
toward the Cuban question. For the
purpose of obtaining information
concerning affairs in Cuba, upon
which he could implicitly rely, the
President dispatched w. ]. Calhoun
of Danville, Illinois, to that un-
fortunate island as a special COM
missioner to enquire into the facts
connected with the execution of
Ruiz, and the sizing up of the war
situation in a general way. Mr..
Calhoun has returned and his pre-
liminary report has evidently con-
WINGED Mckinley that there are
other than subjects of the Spanish
government who have some rights
that are entitled to respect. The
friends of Ruiz demand an indemn-
ity of one hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars for his death, and an
enforcement of this demand will
teach the blood-thirsty Spanish au-
thorities an instructive lesson which
they viii not be likely soon to for
get.
As we understand the matter the
last Congress has adopted a con-
current resolution giving the Presi.
dent much discretionary power in
dealing with the Cuban situation
which resolution was pigeon-holed
by Cleveland and the Spaniards al
lowed to have things their own way
| A concurrent resolution not being
mandatory this one was simply ig
nored by tie ex-President, and
though never abrogated, seems to
have had little or no effect upon the
present administration. 1t is sale
that Mr.. Calhoun viii soon have {
more extended conference with tbs
President, and that as a result tbs
cause of liberty and humanity viii
receive some encouragement, anC
that at least the purpose of thu
United States government to pro
tect her subjects will be exemplifiec
IN a practical way.
