THE koREsAAN THEORY.

l. ne cApeu illOn eCll W va
pies, Fla, 10y the koreshahs
Of Chicago, to demonstrate
by geodetic experiments,
that this old world of ours,
instead of being a solid
sphere, peopled on the out
side, is a hollow sphere, and
we are living on the inside or
concave side, of the crust or
shell, got through with their
survey last week, and Prof.
u G.. Morrow, the leading
disciple of this new theory
of DR., Teed's returned to
Chicago perfectly satisfied
with the results.
The experiment was made
by surveying 4 line beginning
ten feet above the water S
edge and extending four
miles out into the Gulf,
where they claim that it run
into the water and they
stopped
This Is exactly what the
Koreshan disciples contend
eel that it would do, whereas
if the surface Of the world
| was round or convex, accord
ing to the present accepted
theory, the line instead of
running into the water
should have extended out
into space far above the wa
ter surface.
1t strikes us though we
are no scientist, that a con-
cave surface that curves ten
feet in four miles would
make a rather small sphere
for four large continents and
as many oceans, and the sun
moon and all the stars to be
crowded into,
The old mariner who
starts from Sanfrancisco and
sails westward for many
months and finally lands in
| New York, almost due east
from his starting point, will
find it hard to change his
views on the convexity of
the earth, but to the Kore-
shan this theory is perfectly
satisfactory.
The Koreshans have col.
ony at Naples, and their
ideas on political economy
are just as radical as their
geodetic theory, They live
as one great family owning
| everything in common.

result therefore the more satisfactory and
lasting. However private views may
differ as to the policy of the measure, it
was devised ID obedience to the expressed
wish of majority of the nation; and its
discussion was attended with the fullest
hearing of both sides of the opposite in
terests concerned. At least, therefore.
the enactment of the tariff law of 1897
must be accepted as the expression of
the best Judgment of the nation for the
time being. That Judgment is the only
constitutional means of conducting the
affairs of the country, and it should
therefore be Loyalty accepted and fairly
and patiently subjected to the test of ex-
perience. To those at least who approve
of the policy of protection, the new law
presents one conspicuous feature for
congratulation. 1t extends aid to many
interests which have thus far failed to re-
celve the fostering care of legislation and
to it as industries which have been pro-
tected in high degree for the last genera
ton. 1t Is matter of oongrat1lation
that these newly protected industries are
more or less directly agricultural It is
not small matter to those dependent
upon the cultivation of the soil that the
cattle and sheep raisers, the fruit growers,
the sugar producers and the fax Guilt
vators should have the same kind of en-
couragement as has been given so gen.
erously to the manufacturing and mining
industries. The direct tendency of this
fostering recognition will be to diversity
agricultural production aud thereby di-
minish the overproduotion of cereals
from which the farmers have so acutely
suffered for many years past.

TO AMERlCANlZE THE NAVY.

Secretary Long is credited with de.
sire to Americanize the United States
navy before his term of Office expires
The crews of the ships at the present are
largely composed of aliens. 1t is doubt
full if he will be able to do anything in
this matter. 1t has been tried by
other secretaries and they very soon find
out that at the present rate of pay rang
ing from SIG to $25 per month, Amer
leans will not enlist in the navy. As q
rule they can do better. In the line of
promotion the highest station possible
is that of petty officer,.and even here the
pay is not much above that of common
laborer. What is the inducement in the
navyP Can the secretary give any good
reason why intelligent young men should
enter service in which the rewards are
80 scanty, as those held out today in the
American navy? With foreigners the
pay is an inducement. With some ma
tionalities $1s and 500 per month is good
pay, and they embrace the opportunity
to enlist early. and often. Not SO with
Americans. The pay ia small, the dis
cipline sometimes severe and always irk-
some, and rewards in the matter of pro-
motion insignificant.

would not know what to do without 1T.
Prosperity was coming along at a pace
too sure footed for them, and while it
may continue to show itself and jog
along in the regular channels of trade,
this big strike of the coal miners will
give them something else to talk about
and they will make the most of it.
Without doubt the strike, if long con-
tinued, will have depressing effect on
trade in spots and may paralyze the
bituminous coal industry for al period of
time, but it's effect upon the general bust
ness interests of the country may not be 80
serious as it would seem to be. It will
be serious enough upon both the strikers
their families and the coal mine owners
and operators. But the calamity howlers
will see nothing in it but conclusive evil
dence OF a general situation entirely out
of harmony with the restoration of pros
perity. They will set aside as unworthy
of consideration all the evidences they
themselves have seen of healthy bust
ness revival; all the reports of the trade
journals, the testimony of business men
and absolute proofs of comparative
statements showing decided improve
ment in trade and In commercial and in.
dustrial conditions. They will see moth
ing and talk about nothing but the big
coal miners strike; ignoring the sure
and steady advances made in other in
dustrial lines and in the general trade Of
the country.
But the intelligent people of the land
will not be deceived nor dismayed by the
howls of the calamity howlers. The lat
ter are bowling for political purposes
only. They are made up of free traders,
free silverites, Populists, and popocrats,
who can endure anything else better than
the coming of prosperity under Republi-
can rule. This is why they are constant
ly bowling through the press, on the
streets and from the rostrum, that this
big strike knocks out all signs of pros
perity. They know better, but they are
doing it for politics only. The big strike
must be great relief to them. Their
own newspapers in Detroit and all over
the country have been printing in their
news columns authenticated reports and
interviews with businessmen showing
a greatly improved condition of business
within the last few months, and such re-
ports are bitter medicine to the calamity
howlers.
And 80 the ordering of this big coal
miners strike must have been most
welcome new departure to them. They
can hardly conceal the ghoulish glee over
it. For political reasons they would
probably like to see more strikes and q
return to recent all-around conditions.
But they will have to brace up and take
their medicine. The new era of pros
perity is drawing near rapidly and all the
calamity howlers in the country cannot
change the inevitable. There will be oc-
casional strikes and setbacks, but these
will not sidetrack prosperity.

AMERICAN INTERESTS IN HAWAII,

A RECENT circular of the department of
agriculture throws some convincing light
upon the Hawaiian question. 1t is a
most effective answer to the Japanese
protest against annexation. That pro-
test was largely founded upon the alleged
ground of Japan's great interests in the
Hawaiian islands. This circular shows
what American interests there amount to
a showing before which all Japanese
interests seem insignificant indeed.
The circular deals with the last ten
years, the very period in which Japanese
interests have had their origin and
growth. 1t shows that in the first half of
this period no less than 91.20 per cent of
Hawaiian foreign trade was with the
United States. Certainly those figures
indicate a sufficient predominauoe of
American interests to answer the claims
of any of the other nations that made up
the remaining $3.50 per cent. But per-
haps American trade is declining, and
that of Japan increasingly Not at all. In
the second half of the decade American
trade actually increased to 81 .92 per cent,
aud that of all others put together de-
creased to sos per cent. That rule holds
good down to to the present day. In
1896 Hawaiian trade with the United
States ives greater than any preceding
year.
Il is true that Hawaiian trade with
other countries is growing, especially in
Japan, China and Canada. That is natu-
raj. But those countries are not rivals
of the United States. They are not gain.
ing upon the United States. They pur-
chase only about one-half of per cent
of what Hawaii sells. They sell, all of
them together, less than one fourth of
what Hawaii purchases. The interests
of the United States outweigh theirs
manyfold-so enormously that there is
no comparison but only contrast between
them. So far, indeed, as commercial in
terests are concerned, Haw,ii is already
and has long been part of the United
States. It lie not to be conceived that
this country will be compelled to ask
the permission of any other nation be-
fore it can set the formal seal upon what
is substantially an accomplished fact.

TO BRAND THE SEALS IN THE NORTH PACIFIC

A few days since the New MEXICAN re-
ferred to Mr.. Joseph Murray of Fort
Collins, Colo, as the agent who had been
selected by the treasury department to
brand the seals on the Alentian islands
This journal is now in receipt of a letter
from Mr.. Murray, dated St. Paul Island
Alaska, July 8. He says: II left home
for San Francisco on May 10; left there
on the 22d on board the Del Norte for
st. Paul's island, where we arrived July
IL, and was sworn in as chief agent. I
will brand the new crop of seals this fall
and the crop of '9S next fall before re-
turn to civilization. So you see my posi-
tion, like life, is mixed in nearly equal
proportions of bitter and sweet Still l
would stay up here for nothing if by
branding the seals could defeat the
Canadian British scheme of seal stealing
and ruthless slaughter"
"Honest Joe Murray" as he is called in
Colorado, will come as near defeating the
seal thieves as any man in America. Mr..
Murray was born in Ireland, was brought
when quite young to England, received
his education at night schools while work
ing by day. When the Franco-Austrian
war broke out "Joe" joined the French
army, was present at the great battles of
Solferino and Magenta and all the other
engagements which eliminated in the ex-
pulslon of the Austrians from Italy. Re-
turning to England he resumed his oc,
cupation of cotton spinning until the be-
ginning of the civil war, then he induced
a number of his countrymen to come to
America for the purpose of joining the
Union army; he with several of his COM
rades Joined Hancock's corps and he was
present with that splendid army in all
It's battles; as souvenir of the war he
bears on his breast scar received from
a rebel bayonet at the desperate struggle
of "the bloody angle"
Some interesting details of what is fast
becoming great International question,
namely the question of preserving the
seal herds, will be furnished this paper
from time to time by Mr., Murray.

IMPROVED CONDITIONS.

Prompt and faithful work has marked
the present administration from its in
ception. Now that the tariff question is
settled for four years at least, the currency
matter has been taken up with prompt
ness that betokens desire to get at the
bottom of this much mooted question,
putting the currency of the country en-
tirely beyond any present or future
threatened danger. Meantime, despite
the prospects of big coal strike, con-
ditions are improving right along, as
attested by reports from the big money
oenters of the country. The effect of the
new tariff laws will materially aid in
bringing about better times, and every
thing considered the outlook for prosper
ity is bright in all departments of in
dustry. The wheat crop of the country
will show large excess over any recent
seasons, and high prices are assured by
reason of failure of this i'm portant crop
in other countries. Reports indicate
that the Australian wheat crop will be
almost total failure. Locally the far
mers and stockmen have no complaint.
Wool is quick at better prices than last
year and the season has been favorable
for stock in all parts of the territory.
The fruit yield will be heavier than ever
before, and mining is looking up. New
Mexico more than ever before is attract
ing the attention of prospectors and in
vestors. The chances are favorable for
the opening up of several valuable lead
properties in the near future--not pros
poets, but mines of demonstrated value.
New Mexico has suffered in common with
othet sections of the country from the
depression that has been 80 wide in it's
sweep, but men of affairs in all parts OF
the territory feel that the dark days have
passed and that an era of prosperity was
ushered inwhen Mr.. Mckinley took the
helm.
