THE RIGHT OF MIGHT.

War in All Its Horror Has Been with
Us since the Birth of Time.
War has been defined as murder
glorihed. The scatfold replaced by a
triumphal arch would perhaps be more
~hgurative. A condition of things quail
fed as eXtra-legal would be more ex-
act. War is the paradox of jurispru-
dence. 1t sanctions that which it has
forbidden; honors that which it Dun
ishes, and rewards that which 1t re-
proves. Its criterion is the result.
There Is no question of justice or of
injustice. There is u question merely
of victory or defeat, The Romans,
who, whatever their faults may have
been, were not casuistS, summed it up
in a s~entence-vae victis-woe to the
vanqulshed. War and humanity are
c%ongenital. They appeared on earth
together. In the Old Testament the
most ancient chronicle is a tale of muir
der. There two brothers are fact to
face. Their ideas conflict. One kills
the other. The brothers are succeed.

TO KlLL SILVERiSrf
Congress Ripe For Positive Gold Leg
 iSIaii1n.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Senator Me Bride of Oregon, who is one Of the first western senators to reach Washington. believes that the republican successes on the Pacific slope will be duplicated in 1900
 Both on the Paidcc coast and in the ! inferior states" ne says, the campaign for sound money has been growing con- stantly. 1 consider she state of Kan sas as redeemed to the republican party, ard the vote ir the neighboring states that have formerly been for free silver is very encouraging
 Your people all want this govern ment yo keep the Philippinos?''
 Yes, Ve are all s-3p2nsionisss CO not want to attempt any discussion of the treaty with Spain before it is pre- serted to the senate, but ! may say personally I think the war has i'm posed duties upon us in our relations with those islands that will noc war rant us in letting them go now"
 Senator Mcbride states that he is in favor of ar extra session if it is imDos- sible tC transact all .he necessary busi- ness before March 1.
 "I w.sh to emphasize" said the sen ator, the importance e monetary iss- islation tEat will prevent the recur- renee Of any endless chain The VOL CTS in Oregon and elsewhere i2, the west have indica-ed their allegiance to sound money. In February, 1896. cas. the only vote from the Pacific coast in either house against the silver bill It is q matter of some pride to ne that every republican vote from the Pacific c0as. il the next congress will 4Je for sound nancy.
 T held then that the west was just as much interested ia sound money as the east, and there could be TO such thing as enc kind Cf moGey for the east and a different kind of money for the west. These ideas have been gaining ground in the west, and we want legis- lation that will assure US 8 stable cur relcy based absolutely and without any eqUivocation OH the gold standard
 Tt is enc Of the most satisfactory features Of the recen. elections" added the senator. that g. large republican majority will control the senate after next March. That makes it certain that no free silver legislation can De passed for six CT eight yeas. Novcr- theless as the law stands now. it would be possible for a free silver president to put this country on silver standard within a week after his inauguration. The law provides for the payment of certain government obligations in either fold CT sily-r, and by directing pawn in silv6-, which the presi- dent undoubtedly has authority to do, the silverites could establish directly their propaganda, and even if the house were republican i. would be quite difficult to change the law.
 Therefore, I think we should enact some positive Legislation to establish ! a stable currency. 1 am in favor of this legislation just as early as other men can be found in congress willing to take it up. l would maks 2 beg IT, ; ming a. the approaching session.
 If the law was made positive about the payment CT government obligations in gold, the country is secure against the acts cf q free silv-r prssident." !

 them with ladders and they stood
 helpless, screaming with terror. Sud
 denly White came cut of a window
 carrying a small rope. With this he ? lowered the women into the arms of
 the firemen. who were waiting at the
 windows Of the next floor. Then
 White started down the rope hand over hand. Half way down the rope parted and the man who has just saved three lives was dashed to death on the pavement 100 feet below.

 J. Goodwin Thompson of Oakdale, Cal, guest of the Baldwin hotel and a very important witness in the Ros- ser murder case, is Ulaccountable for up to 11:1e o'clock.
 The loss Of life so far as reported has been miraculously light, but two deaths having occurred as far as known. The list Of dead and missing. so far as known, is as follows:
 Dead: Captain J. L. White, San Francisco. capitalist; Lewis Myers, Skaguay, Alaska, merchant
 Missing: J. N, Leighthead, San Francisco, purser steamer City of Sydney; Late Pyror of St. Louis; F. R. Andrews, cashier cafe; fred Webster, Joe Summerf1sld. Chicago; two cham bermaids; John Garter, race track judge; Siler, advertising agent, St Louis
 The principal losses are very far reaching, almost every branch of com mercial trading being directly affected. The ground floor Of the notel was di- yided into number of large> stores. and few of their occupants saved any thing worth mentioning, the majority reporting ,otal losses. Two of the most handsome cafes in the city were gutted and their stocks destroyed. The Bald win theater, the fashionable amuse- ment place of this city, was totally de- stroyed
 he flames were confined to the Baldwin structure, but much adjoin- ing property was seriously damaged by water and smoke. The Columbia bui ding on Powell street on the west side Of the Baldwin, suffered consid- crabIy, ard the basement of the Colum- bia theater, another fashionable play house, was gutted and much valuable theatrical apparatus destroyed. The Gay Coney Island company will lose considerable, and Dr. Freeman, manager Of he company, who was a guest at the Baldwin, lost trunk con valuable papers and $3,500 in cash.

THE GOLD CONDITION
Importaf:ons This Year inc largest In the History Of inc Country.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The impor- taions of gold into the United States in the year 1898 are by far the largest in the history Of the country, and the expOrtatiOns the smallest in many years, while the production Of gold from our own mines will prove the largest in many yeas, if ncc the larg- est in the history of the country. The October statement of imports and eX- ports, just issued by the treasury bur eau of statistics. shows that the total imports Of gold in the ten months end ing October 31, 1898 are S143, ,658, ,095, which is more than 50 per cent in ex- cess Of the amount imported in the cor responding period Of any preceding year. The exports during that time have been buc $14,061, ,8i9, which is less than in the corresponding months Of any preceding year for more than decade. This gives the enormous bal
 ance Of S129 596, 246 CT gold impOrta- tions in excess of gold expectations. IT only one year in the decade have the ten months ending with October shown an excess Of imports Of gold over the eXpOrls, that occasion being in 1896, when the excess of imports was S37,- 058,851. In all other years from 1888 to 1898 the October returns showed for the ten months O the calsndar year an excess of experts of gold over the imports Of that article. that of 1895 being $43. .247, ,3e0 and 1894. 2,S08, ,S22.
 This unpreco coderted flow of gold into the United States is accoun ed for in part at least by the enormous balanc8 of trade in our favor. which the len
