showing any anxiety TO urge the matter TO
a conclusion.
The negotiations with France are SINH

of the French government in raising the

Great Britain as to the British West Indies

| Such al alliance would not be strange
| The governments to be included In Il
have always been on the friendliest terms
and twice in the history of the United
States has help come from Russia and
France. During the revolutionary wal
France took an active part in helping the
10 colonies to gain their independence,
and in the civil war, when it seemed prob
able that Great Britain would espouse the
cause of the southern states and cause the
dismemberment of the Union, the Rus
sian fieet made friendly call in northern
waters and remained conveniently near
until the British attitude was clearly de-
fined. To what extent that silent support
of the great power of the czar influenced
the English statesmen to remain neutral
during that struggle no one knows, and
probably will never be known, but it Ger
tainly had it's effect. The combined
strength of Russia, France and the United
States would be sufficient to completely
change the political map of the world,
should occasion arise for movement of
that kind, and the possibilities of such
an alliance are beyond the comprehension
of the mind of man, but there is no use
TO speculate upon the matter.
The government of the United States
1as no desire to become tangled up with
,he intrigues of European courts, and if
oreign nations will allow the Americans
10 live in peace, by not encroaching upon
The territory on the western continent and
interfering in matters which do not con
,ern them, no war will result from the
'o-called jingoism of the American states
men and people. While France and Rus
ia would undoubtedly be the gamers by
uch an alliance, Uncle Sam would gain
othing save an assorted lot of old quar-
els, and those we have no use for. We
ave troubles enough of our own without
aking up those of other nations.

northwestern ssates will probably reduce
the aggregate yield TO $4,000, 600 bushels
Or less. In many minds, moreover, the
government report based on an acreage
from 100000 to 100000 below the
truth still has some weight. Though
demonstrably more than 100000 bush
els out of the way in recent years, the
government figures have not yet been SO
revised as to indicate a crop of more than
450,427000 bushels this year, though it is
stated that revised estimates of acreage
may be made hereafter. But meanwhile
many farmers and others are being mis-
led by the supposed authority of official
reports, and are looking for extreme
prices.

SECRETARY OF AGRIoULTURE WILSON
says that within ten years this country
Will be exporting sugar. He might safe.
ly add that New Mexico would furnish her
share of the exports of that article. No
where else in America are conditions for
the growth of sugar beets 30 favorable,
and the advantages offered for the manu-
facture of sugar from the beets will re-
suit in the erection of many large facto-
ries in the territory in less than ten years.
The high per cent of sugar carried by
New Mexico beets is attracting much at
tention amorg sugar men, and the matter
is being looked into by some of the most
practical manufacturers of the country.

THE recalling of General Weyler from
Cuba is indeed good news to the civilized
part of the world. No matter whom the
new Spanish cabinet may send to the
island in his place, the change cannot
help but being for the better The afro.
cities of Weyer, in his treatment of the
Cubans, eclipse anything of modern
times. One thing is sure, however, the
change has been made too late to help
the cause of Spain in the war. The
Cubsns will never cease their fighting
until independence has been gained.

THE Luetgert trial threatens to for
ever ruin the reputation of naturalists
and bone experts. When two men at
the head of great universities fatty con-
tradict each other in the identification of
two little bones, the public at large have
reason to doubt the accuracy of some of
the marvellous reconstruction acts con-
nected with fossil bones, which have
heretofore commanded the admiration of
the less learned portion of mankind.

The dignity of high office does not awe
the citizens of Illinois little bit. Lieu.
tenant Governor Northcott was attacked
by mob in Fulton the other day and
was compelled to take refuge in a depot
to save himself from rough usage. The
trouble arose from the attempt to re-.
move the headquarters of secret So
clety from Fulton to Rock Island and not
over any official act. Mr.. Northcott is at
the head of the society, and in trying to
carry out the orders of the board of direc-
tors was compelled to call on the gov
ernor for troops to driye off the mob and
protect life and property.

The people of San Francisco are solv-
ing the question of future wars, which,
by reason of modern firearms, have been
thought would be merely slaughter. One
day last week young man in the Golden
Gate city was shot through and through
with a 3S-calibre gun and suffered no in
jury except slight flesh wound. If the
process for raising hollow men is only
made public, it will not, be long until
rifles, cannon and such trifles will have no
terrors for the American people.

JUST what Japan expects to accomplish

A DISTINGUISHED GUEST
Entertained by Professor william BuI
lock Clark of Johns Hopkins Univer

Entertained by Professor william hui
lock Clark OF Johns Hopkins UnIver-
sIty.
The recent visit of Sir Archibald Geikie,
directorgeneral of the geological surveys
OF Great Britain and Ireland, to Balti-
more, Md, was an occasion of great inter-
est to the scientific department of Johns
Hopkins university, as well as to a large
group of leading biologists who were gath
cred there from all parts os this country.
Prof. Geikie is accounted the foremost ge-
ologst in the world. His text book and
other writings upon geology are accept
ed as the highest authority in this depart
ment of science. Besides his position as
director-general of the geological surveys
of Great Britain and Ireland he has been
Murchison professor of geology at the I'm
iversity of Edinburg since 1867. He has
been highly honored by the Geological So
ciety of London; he was knighted in 1891,
and is a fellow of the Royal society of
London and Edinburg. He has been sew
eral times in this country, coming first in
1871 in company with the late Prof. Hen
ny Drummond.
The purpose of his visit to Baltimore
was to give course of six lectures on
1.-The Founders of Geology" under fund
| provided in memory of her husband by the
widow of a distinguished professor of in
organic geology at ohns Hopkins univers-
| ity who died in 1894. These lectures were
attended, as already intimated, by the lead
| ing biologists of this country. During his
stay in Baltimore Prof Geikie was the
| guest of Prof. VIM. b. Clark, professor of
organic geology in the university. Prof
and Mrs Clark gave two dinners in honor
of their distinguished guest during his Wis
it, and Prof Clark also gave large com
pany of the leading people of the city and
state an opportunity TO meet him socially
at luncheon at the geological laboratory
of the university.
The lectures were given on six success
i've days. The four days following their
| close were devoted to excursions to some
of the most interesting portions of Mary
! land geologically considered. Beginning
on Wednesday, April %, there was an eX-
cursion down Chesapeake bay. Thursday,
Friday and Saturday were occupied with
an excursion by rail to various points in
Maryland, visit to the battlefield of Get
tysburg being included in the itinerary.
The excursion was made in two Pullman
cars, with a hotel car attached. Gov.
Loundes of Maryland entertained the
company at his home in Cumberland. This
excursion was given under the auspices Of
the Maryland geological survey, the ar
rangements being in charge of Prof Clark.
Before the members of the distinguished
company separated on Saturday, the lst
inst, an expression of hearty thanks was
adopted for the attention shown and the
pleasure enjoyed
