HASTY ACTION OPPOSED.

Hostility to Immediate Considerations He
coming Quite Apparent.
WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator Per-
kins of California, although a Repub-
hcan, announces that he will oppose the
consideration of the treaty at the pres
ent session. He says the questions in
volved are of too general importance for
hasty disposal. The evidence OF hos
tility to immediate consideration is be-
coming quite apparent from several
! directions. The protest OF Japan against
the treaty of annexation was discussed
among senator's during the day, and the
impression was that the result would be
to make votes for the treaty and make
its ratification possible at this session of
congress. Some senators who talk ia
vorably of annexation say that they
would prefer to defer action until next
December, when more time could be
| given to the consideration of the treaty
and the senate be better informed as to
the best policy to pursue.
Senator Kyle, who is one of the most
Jealous of the senatorial advocates of
annexation, said that canvass of the
senate indicated that there were 81
votes certain for annexation. The con
stitution requires a twO-thirds vote fol
the ratification of treaties, making &C
necessary to ratify. Senator Kyle says
there are fully a dozen senator's who are
doubtful from whom to draw the five
votes necessary to insure confirmation

tanned with that mid Pacific domain for
three-quarters of century. Its accom-
plishment, despite successive denials and
postponements, has been merely ques-
ton of time. While its failure in 1893
may not be a cause or congratulatlon, 1t
is certainly proof Of the disinterested-
ness of the United States, the delay of
four years having abundantly sutficed
to establish the right of the republic OF
Hawaii to enter as sovereign con-
tractant upon a conventional union with
the United States, thus realizing a
purpose held by the Hawaiian people and
proclaimed by successive Hawaiian gov
ernments through some 20 years OF their
virtual dependence upon the benevolent
protection of the United States. Under
such circumstances, annexation is not a
change; it is a cOnsummatlOn. The re-
port of the secretary of state exhibits
the character and course OF the recent
negotiations and the features of the
treaty itself. The organic and admins
! trative details of incorporation are nee
essarily left to the wisdom of the con-
gress and l cannot doubt, when the
function of the constitutional treaty
making power shall have been accom-.
plished, the duty Of the national legisla-
ture in the case will be performed with
the largest regard for the interest OF
this rich insular domain and fof the
welfare Of the inhabitants thereof.

was sent to the church of his native
town, where he remained nine years, and
in addition to attending 70 his priestly
duties, practiced his water cure and met
with considerable success. Some AZ
years ago, he was transferred from Of
tobuern to Woerishofen, near Munich,
where he continued to heal the sick by
cold water cures, and attracted much at
tention. In 1899 he wrote book de-
failing his theory, and since that time
his name and his methods have become
familiar throughout the world. By per-
mission of his bishop, he gave up his
duties as priest and, with the assistance
of three other priests, devoted all his
time to healing the sick.

The democratic mayo elect of Can

little message to the New York World,
giving the reasons of the republican
slump at Canton, which we hope will
be carefully read by workingmen
who made excursions last year to
Canton to behold the advance agent
of prosperity:
Failure to make good the promises
made by the republicans last fall,
general suffering and distress among
the laboring classes, inability to do a
prosperous business on confidence
have caused people voting for Nc.

the interest of the masses and classes
are not mutual so far as republican

How a Donkey Found a Mine.

The history of mine discoveries in

in connection with the discovery OF
one of the richest mines in the Ceur

A Disguised Republican.

The plain fact is that the extra ses-
sion of the legislature will cost the
republican party 5000 votes in the
next campaign. The quicker the par
ty dfsowns the work of the cheap and
rascally scalawags who outnumber
the able and honorable members of
the assembly, the better for its inter
ests. Why is it that a majority of the
members of the house are either i'm
becils or request They have neither
political honesty nor sagacity. They
put in half their time in whitewash-

In the spring of 1896 Thomas Rouse,
OF Burlington, Ky, kept two ducks out
of flock and drake from which to
raise, and here is the result: They laid
1875 eggs i'll the spring, from which $40
worth of ducks were sold, after eating
and selling some of the eggs of which
no account was kept. Six young ducks
were kept out of the lot. In the fall the
two old ducks laid 0s more eggs. Off
the young ducks feathers enough to

Official Paper Of County.
OUR CANDIDATE IN 1900.

The National bank circulation of
the United States on the first day of
October 1896, was only 1920, SO4, 1868,
only about one third the the sum the
banks were authorized to issue. The
new bank scheme proposed by the
Indianapolis conference proposes to
allow the banks to issue to the full
sum of the bonds deposited to secure
circulation, and yet on the basis of
ninety per cent. of the authorized
circulation the amount of bills issued
and put out is nearly 100000, 600 less
than the banks are authorized to is
sue. To allow the issue or to require
the issue are entirely different propo-
sitions. One would take from the
banks the power to control circula-
ton, the other gives that power to
the government. But the primary or
redemption money of the banks when
the national banking act was passed
was gold, silver and greenbacks,
either one being adequate for the re-
demption Of national bank notes. If
the basis of redemption is to be mar
rowed by retiring the greenbacks,
and discarding silver, we don't see
how the banks can safely take out
and put in circulation the amount of
notes they are now allowed to issue.
Fifty banks in Iowa belonging to
the American Bankers Association,
at its annual session last fall reported
deposits of over $1s,0O0,0OO, money
belonging to the people, s.all out of
circulation of course. Their circula-
ton was not reported, but of whatev-
or sum it was, they were required to
mnintain redemption fund of Is per
cent on deposit, and also deposit
for the redemption of their own notes
in one of the principal reserve cities,
the three central ones being Chicago.
New York and st. Louis, beside which
there are sixteen others located at
Albany, Baltimore, Boston, Cincin-
natl, Cleveland, Detroit. Kansas City
Louisville, Milwaukee, New Orleans,
Omaha, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, San
francisco, st. Joseph and Washing
ton. Thus it will be seen that all the
reserve cities are out side our state of
Iowa, and that its reserve fund is
doing business in Chicago or New
York where it is loaned for specula-
ton and gambling in stocks at from
II to per cent on call. The western
farmer or business man finds his local
bank short of funds for his accommo-
dation because it is in the reserve
bank in one of the reserve cities.

Our National Iife.

The two chief sources to which for
eigm observers look for manifestations
of our civilization and progress are our
press and our public men, says the
Century. This must be the case with
every nation. Are these two refec-
tions of our national life such always as
to command high respect for our gen.
eral culture, our self-restraint, our high
minded sense of justice, our broad con-
ception of international obligations?
1t has been said that every nation has
the kind of press that it deserves, that
its newspapers reflect the tastes and
mirror the intellectual standards Of
its people. We cannot expect to be
made an exception in the general judg-
ment of the world; and if many of our
great journals place trivialties, scandal
and crime in most conspicuous posi-
ton in their columns, thus assuming
that American readers like that kind of
news best of all, how cam we complain
when foreign observers accepet the as
sumption as accurate? If some of our
statesmen and politicians assume habit
ually bullying tone of contempt for
foreign opinion, if they habitually
make light of expert knowledge, ex-
press contempt for trained intelligence,
treat such grave matters as the public
credit and national honor with inlif-
ference, how can we complain if for
eign observers say that as people we
care little for all those things?
