A Tribute to the United States.

A number of foreign governments,
notably France, Germany and Russia,
have officers with the United States
army and navy during the present war
operations, taking observations of our
improved methods in every branch of
the military service. with a view of
ENGRAVING some of the new ideas upon
the government forces they represent.
The result is that these foreign officers
have sent reports home acknowledging
the superiority of the American army
and navy in a number of points vitality
affecting tkeir efficiency. During the
attack upon Matanzas an English Of
ficer, similarly detailed, was aboard
the American flagship New York and
observed the cannonading from the
bridge with Admiral Sampson. The
visitor declared that the workmanship
shown by the American gunners ex-
ceeded anything that he had ever be-
fore seen, and expressed the greatest
amazement with the accuracy of their
aim. He wrote back TO the British
admiralty that there was nothing in
the English navy that could exceed
what he had witnessed in the line of
expert work in the handling of the
great guns on the cruiser.
Capt. Won Goetzen of the German
army, Maj. d'Arville of the French
corps Of engineers, and Gen. Mertwego
of Russia, who have been at Tampa for
some time observing the methods en-
ployed by the American army, express
themselves as being much impressed
by the completeness of the engineer
corps Ian ding service. Capt. OAR
vile writes the French embassy at
Washington:
| had no sort of appreciation of the
completeness of these American offic-
ers' landing equipment until l saw a
part of it. Figure to yourself a pou-
tremer (sea bridge or pontoon) of over
half an English mile long, compact
enough to bear up train of six field
guns. Do you know any service in
Europe that has ever ventured upon
such daring experiment? l do not
But it is successful. In gunnery they

the movements of fleets and armies,
and almost total silence as to what
our law makers at Washington are do
ing. There is nothing better under
the great dailies-are under the con-
troll of the syndicate of international
bankers who seek. year by year, to in
crease their hold upon our resources.
Congress has, during the past week,
voted vast bond issue of three hun
dred million dollars. This increase of
our Understanding debt is wholly I'M
necessary. The treasury note is also
a debt of the government which people
will gladly accept as money; but the
treasury note does not bear interest,
and therefore is not to the liking of
the habItues of Wall and Lombard
streets. They want a chance to draw
more of the life-blood of the country
from her veins through the medium of
taxation.
A number of so-called Democrats
voted for the issuance of bonds, and
they will doubtless be rewarded by the
benefciaries of the project. Remem-
Der them! The man who parts with
his Democracy for hire is both a trail
tor to his party and his country. Let
it be understood that the Congressman
who voted for the inlquitous bond pro-
Ject now eoIsum minated placed himself
outside of his party for all time to
come. Let him take his place at once
with the Palmers, Buckners, Carlisles
and Wattersons, who betrayed the par
ty in 1896. The country press should
take up this matter, as they did the
silver question, and fight it vigorously,
for if fight is to be made against the
iniquity of needlessly increasing our
debt under the spe-
cious plea that it is a war measure,
the country press throughout this ma
ton must make it. The fight should
at once and be kept up I'M
til the scheme is damned. Coin the
silver; issue treasury notes to the ex-
tent of five hundred million, if neces-
sary; push the war vigorously, and
then we will see if there is any occasion
for this bond issue. Turn the United
States navy loose, and this whole bust
ness will end in two months. 1t looks
like the party in power has been trying
to delay matters for some reason. Is
it possible the administration has de-
termined to lengthen the war until it
can have justification for this iniquit-
Gus bond issue?

Obituary.

Mr.. James Beer died at his home in
Graniteville, Mo-, at 4 o'clock p. NJ,
Thursday, June 9th, 1898, of heart
failure.
Deceased was born at Horibridge,
Devonshire, England, December 18th,
1854. At the age of II James came to
America, and after travelling over a
great part of the United States, re-
turned to England and married the
love of his youth, Miss Bessie Phillipa
Browbay of Gunnislake, Cornwall.
England, December Sd, 1877, and
again sailed for America.
For the past seven years they have
lived in Graniteville, where Mr.. Beer
was we'll known as one of the best and
most diligent stone cutters OF the
place, and also as kind, atfectionate
husband, a splendid friend to all his
fellowmen; a steady, hard working,
moral man.
A large congregation accompanied
the remains from the residence to the
NJ. +. church at 2 o'clock Friday. At
ter paying very earnest and sympa-
thetic attention to the services and
after viewing mournfully the well
known features of the deceased, the
remains were followed to the cemetery
at Middlebrook, where the services
were concluded.
The sympathy of the entire COM
munity is with the bereaved wife and
adopted daughter, who mourn the loss
OF loving husband and father, a dill
gent and faithful protector.

WE understand that Judge Fox has
carried the counties of Bollinger and
Ste. Genevieve; that J. Merrill Pipkin
has carried the counties of Perry and
st. Francois. These two counties
would give Pipkin the nomination for
Judge of the 9th Judicial Circuit if
the county of Madison is not taken into
the count. On last Saturday the Madi-
son county Convention was held at
Fredericktown. At that Convention
delegates were chosen to the Judicial
Convention. On show of hands Judge
Fox carried his home county by vote
of four hundred and seventy to Pipkin's
two hundred. When it was found that
Pipkin was beaten, the managers OF
that gentleman's campaign withdrew
his forces, held a boiling convention,
and nominated a contesting delegation.
1t is suggested that as the Pipkiu
delegations in the counties of St. Fran
co.'s and Perry are larger than the Fox
delegations from the counties of Ste.
Genevieve and Bollinger, they can or
gauize the Convention, seat the Pipkin
delegates from Madison, and thereby
insure the nomination of their man.
This is a smooth political move; so
smooth that it reminds US OF the days
of the reconstruction period when any
number of votes were suppressed neces-
sary to accomplish the political ends
of the smooth politicians. 1t is not
our fight. We are only spectators of
the events that are transporting in our
neighboring circuit. We cannot help
rejecting that things are not rs they
used to be. Party cohesion is not
strong enough to stand the strain of
such slick politics. Should Mr.. Pip
kin win by such means he may find his
nomination to be only dead-sea fruit,
and that he has not Increased his po-
litical assets by such a move. To
rank outsider it looks as if Mr.. Plpkin
did not care to protect his standing in
his Sunday School. Perhaps in his
mind the means justifies the end, but
the average Democrat has prejudice
against the Acknowledgement of
county that is likely to accompany him
to the polls in November. If this
sharp practice is carried to a success
full conclusion, the friends of Judge
Fox might feel called upon to take the
delegates from Ste. Genevieve, Bollin-
ger, and the regular delegates from
Madison. and hold a separate Conven-
ton. Who can say they would not be
justified in so doing, and who will
doubt the regularity of their proceed
ings?

More Bonds.

The devil, it is said, delights 20 fish
in muddy water, and muddy water is
his especial delight when he poses as
the Money Devil. Our civil war made
possible the national bank, the change
of the monetary unit from silver to
gold, and the whole horde OF vulgar
rich men who infest this country as
the swarms of flies infested and cursed
Egypt in the days of of old. The cam
paign of 1896 disturbed these people
greatly. The plain, common people
had their attention turned for once in
half century to questions OF finance.
The methods of the bondholder, the
stock gambler and the money shark
were placed under the tense of public
inspection, and the examination
aroused a spirit of uneasiuess and I'M
rest that these people do not find it
pleasant to contemplate. They do not
want search-light turned on their
transactions. They want some other
issue to supplant the financial issue in
the minds of the American people.
Now that we are engaged in war we
should keep Congress under the most
rigid inspection. and, above all, a
bright lookout for Shylocks. They
hope that the roar of cannon on the
ocean will attract the attention of the
people of this nation from what is now
going on in congress. Already we see
broad and very black headlines about

SOME of the thick-and-thin partisans
who are taking pleasure in cOntempti-
BILE filings at William Jennings Bryan
will see where they are at some of
these days, and that is some cOmpensa-
ton. But some others of them would
throw up their hats and shout their
gizzards into congestion if the McHan-
ma gang were to proclaim Imperialism
better than Republicanism-so loyal
are they to Wall Street and the tin gods
it calls upon them to worship. They
may be American born, but they have
mt a touch of true Americanism in
their mental makeup.

The Patriots and the Vultures.

However we may as a people differ
on questions of internal polity, yet as
between the United States and any 9TH
er country there are no parties and no
politics. We are a unit for Uncle Sam
against the world, the flesh and the
devil. The entire democratic press,
every democratic governor and every
democratic congressman have sus-
tanned every measure of a republican
administration believed to be necessary
to the successful prosecution of the war.
How would it have been if Mr.. Bryan
had have been elected instead of Mr..
Mckinley? "How could we have car
ried on this war without gold?" has al
ready been asked. Assuming that the
election would have driven gold out of
the country, honestly believed, no
doubt, by many, then what?
The people still remember that the
greatest civil war in history, involv
ing, indeed, the very existence of the
government, was fought to success
full conclusion without either gold or
silver. the people are not fools, and
they all have memories. But, sup
pose Mr.. Mckinley had have applied
to Mr.. Bryan for a commission in the
army, would he have receivedit? Yes;
and those who know the magnanimity
of the man do not have to be told that
every opportunity would have been af-
forded the patriotic recipient to serve
his country to the best possible advan-
tage. The patriotism and loyalty to
country of the distinguished volunteer
would have been conceded and re-
spected by everyone. There would
have been no little soul so lost to
every instinct of a common manhood
as to gleefully express delight that the
field of his activities are possibly to be
on the opposite side of the globe. Nor
would some craven, who was loudest
in denouncing anarchy" in the last
whose narrow soul is con-
cerned only with the sordid question
of how the war is TO affect his personal
have expressed the hope that
he might never return. 1t taxes faith
in humanity that such a sentiment
should not only exist. but find an occa-
sional expression in speech.
These creatures are the vultures
which every great commotion throws
to the surface. They are peculiar to
no particular country. Absolutely
the instinct of love of anything
greater than the dollar, incapable of
good or bad government,
save as it affects their material welfare,
these creatures are ever ready to spec
ulate upon their country's necessities,
never volunteer in their country's de-
tense, and, if drafted, buy substitute,
and laugh derisively at any higher or
nobIer sentiment than that of their own.
But, be it said to the credit of Ameri-
can manhood, their number is by no
means large. Like all the venomous
and vicious products of nature, they
are only to be met with now and then,
and do but serve to set the object of
their vituperative spleen on pedestal
infinitely above and beyond the reach
of such human jackals.
In spite of them all, this war, no

Mr.. Isaac Horner, proprietor of the
Burton House. Burton, W. v, and one
of the most widely known men in the
state was cured of rheumatism after
three years of suffering. He says: Il
have not sufficient command of lam
guage to convey any idea of what l
suffered, my physicians told me that
nothing could be done for me and my
friends were fully convinced that moth
ing but death would relieve me of my
suffering. In June, 1894, Mr.. Evens,
then salesman for the Wheeling Drug
Co., recommended Chamberlain Pain
Balm. At this time my foot and limb
were swollen to more than double their
normal size and it seemed to me my
leg would burst, but soon after | began
using the Pain Balm the swelling be-
gan to decrease, the pain to leave, and
now | consider that am entirely cured.

B. w. Cummings, Jr., the District At
torney-elect for this county, returned from
New York city last evening where he had
gone to consult with the officials of the Lake
Erie g. Western railroad, of which his
brother is vice president, in reference to the
position of solicitor of the railroad. 1t is a
position for life, and pays $4,000 year, but
Mr.. Cummings has refused it, and will serve
his full term as District Attorney tor this
county. In this connection it is now semi
officially announced that Mr.. Cummings has
decided upon his deputies but his chief will
not be Mr.. Schalck, as previously reported.
The appointments as settled upon to-day are
as follows; First Deputy, James J. Moran;
Second Deputy, Harry o. Bechtel; Third
Deputy. NJ. j. Fleming. The clerk is to be
Joseph g. Kramer, a young member of the
bar. The fact that NJ. P. Mclaughlin, the
present chief deputy, is left out will create
great dissatisfaction, and his knowledge and
experience of the affairs of that Office will be
greatly missed.
