world. Mr.. DOwsett saw the grass hut
replaced by the atone business block
and the tarO patch filed up for man
sion site He saw the little paths be-
come fine streets and the broad and
barren plains thiclIly populated dis
tricts. He saw the life of nation
change. He witnessed the most mar

with a people and a country in mod
ern times. Through all this he was
a close observer and always on the
side Of what was right and just. Such
a man is to be mOurned and is mourn
ed.
Effort will doubtless be made to Sc
cure for publication, in part at least
of Mr.. DOWsetts diary, which covers,
it is said, a period of more than fifty
years. Mr. Dowsett entered up his
diary every day and denied access to
it, The use of the diary has been
sought d number of times in the set

disputes but it was always withheld.
1t contains information of the very
first historical and other value.

Rep. Robertson reported for the
Judiciary Committee on House bill SO.
relating to public administrator, in
part as follows:
'We believe similar laws have work
ed well in some countries where they
have been tried.
This bill was evidently hurriedly
drawn, it contains provisions inappf-
cable to this country. Many changes
would have to be made in the bill be-
fore passage. AS the present session
is drawing to a close, and there being
no urgency in the matter requiring
early action, we recommend that the
bill be laid on the table.

An ironclad could manage to get

she managed to get supply OF coal

in the hands of a hostile power, the
Pacific Coast would be constantly

be practically safe from attack. The

TO STRIKE SOON.

According to Il dispatch from Wash
ington, dated June list. Secretary Al
ger has to a certain extent formulat-
ed the plans for the conduct of the
war, in letter to Speaker Reid, trans
hitting certain statements and rec
Many of these have been guessed at,
or have been known, but in this COM
munication they have been author-
tatively laid down.
There are to be 10000 men sent to
Cuba, and of these 10000 are to be
landed as soon as possible. At the
same time there is to be similar
movement upon Porto Rico, and the
expedition to the Philippines will be
pushed independently. BY this means
all of Spain's colonies will be cut off
and, once occupied, they will never be
given back to Spanish misrule.
Much interest is felt in the second
contingent which has been called for.
1t is understood that these men will
in the existing regiments of volun-
| teers, many of which are deficient in
numbers, and it is possible that some
volunteer regiments will be held back
until they are filed up in this fashion.
That some forward action was to
be taken shortly after June LIST WAS
further shown by the fact that Inc
foreign military observers who have
been residing in Washington have all
left for the front. This may be talk
EN- as very significant, for these men
have access to sources of information
which no newspaper has. 1t is a case
of wheresoever the carcase is, there
will the eagles be gathered together.
Another significant fact is to be
found in the estimates Secretary Al
ger makes in his letter. He asks for
$4,000 for the establishment and
maintenance of special electrical COM
munication in connection with the
army in Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines" while $500, 900 is asked
gun and mortar batteries required i'm
mediately for the use of the war de-
partment, to remain available until
expended The total amount asked
for by Secretary Alger is 100000.
That there should be a forward
movement at once, shows that the
plans for the health and the care of
the United States soldiers are com
plete. 1t is such matters that kept
the army of attack back. 1t is one
thing to put soldiers in the field; it
is quite another thing to keep them
there properly. That the commissa-
riat and hospital portions should be
organized as quickly as they have
been argues wonderfully for the skill
of those in charge. The United States
struck paralyzing blow in Manila,
and while Spain was recovering from
the shock and her military officials
We're sending troops thither and then
recalling them, the work went stead
lily on, and now it seems as if she is
quite prepared to strike the decisive
blow. 1t has been clever work.

J. Doyle, whose vote was 964. In 1892
there were two opposition candidates,
Peasant Rep, who polled 1,2s5 votes, and
Kemp, Pop, who received So votes. N
1894 the opposition was reduced TO a Pop

most vigorous opposition that Col Lester
has ever had. Mr.. J. f. Doyle, the Re
