CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGN.

The great number of Republicans
who are opposed to Hon. Walter
Evans have named as their candi
date Mr.. James Hambrick, who is
we'll known throughout the district
and will receive a large number of
votes. The abuse heaped upon him
and his friends by the Commercial
has only added to his popularity,
and with two Republicans seeking
the Office there is no reason why
Mr.. Turner should not receive an
overwhelming majority.
Because of the generally mixed
state of affairs there are those who
are advocating the bringing out of
a candidate by the trades unionists
and organized labor of the city, but
there is little likelihood of this being
done. The workingmen could at
any time secure the election of one
of their number with proper organi-
ton and united effort, but the time
is too short for them to undertake
to do so this year. All things con-
sidered, we are of the opinion that
they will serve their best interests
by supporting the Democratic NOM
inee, who stands pledged to support
all measures intended for the bet
terment of their condition.

new Indians will revolt against us
they will be served in like manner.
The Filipinos are tribes of half
civilized people-no two tribes in
the same stage of civilization.
Those that are governed at all take to
a paternal form-such as Spain ex-
ercised. The best American and
British Consuls have borne testi-
mony to the humanizing and civil
izing effects of Spanish rule. The
Scientific American says that in
some parts of the islands the only
white man to be seen is the priest.
He is their architect, engineer, civil
governor, spiritual adviser and
father, all combined. And yet
among them everything worked
tremendously. Our Government
with its many politicians to be pro-
vided for will fail when it comes 10
handling these people, as future
events no doubt will show.

ABOUT THE ISLANDS.

President Schurman, of Cornell
University, has joined the host of
other bright minds who have de-
nounced the present mania among
our public men to grab all the colo
NAL possessions of poor old Spain.
In an address before the students
of the university he said that the
cardinal feature of this and all
other republican countries was that
all Governments derive their Just
powers from the consent of those
governed. He says that we are
now playing the role of a despotic
monarchy in our dealings with
Hawaii, Philippine Islands, Porto
Rico and Cuba. In Hawaii the
preachers and their sons who went
to convert the heather did not fail
also to convert the possessions of
the simple islanders to their own
use. During the last few years
these men have succeeded in stir
ring up an agitation against the
lawful authorities, and in spite of
the wishes of the majority of the
islanders succeeded in Undue
ing Congress to declare protector
ate over the island. Porto Rico
has been declared a part of this
country without the Porto Ricans
being consulted. A part of the
Philippines will also be seized. These
countries will be treated pretty
much as our American Indians have
been--cheated and robbed of their
lands; then when remonstrances
are made an army quickly raised
to shoot them down. When these

Vesuvius is again on the rampage.
People living near the volcano are
fleeing in terror, while tourists from
hundreds of miles off are hocking
thither that they might witness this
great spectacle. Near the crater
the main lava torrent is said to have
width of half mile. This is di-
vided into three streams, each
seventy or eighty yards wide, ad-
vancing at the rate of forty miles
an hour, soaring and burning every
thing in its path. Clouds of fine
SCOT are settling on the nearest vii
lagos and showers of cinders three
or four feet deep are covering the
neighboring hamlets. Ominous rum
blings continue from time to time,
and much CONSERVATION prevails.

TURKEYS ANSWER.

In reply to the demand of oul
Minister to Turkey, Oscar Straus
for damages for the massacre of the
American missionaries and the de.
struction of their property, the Sui.
ton positively refuses to consider
the claim. He says the killing and
the destruction were the work of a
disorderly mob, and that the Gov.
eminent of Turkey does not insur
the lives of foreigners residing in
its dominions any more than it does
the lives of its own subjects. He
says the relatives of the murdered
missionaries can obtain redress by
instituting suit in the Turkish
courts agail st the guilty parties.
He here uses identically the same
line of argument that Secretary Jas.
G. Blaine used against the Italian
Government when the eleven men,
bers of the Malta Society were
killed by a mob in New Orleans. 1t
will be remembered that i'll the fall
of 1891 Chief of Police Hennessy,
of New Orleans, was murdered by
an organized band of Italian assas-
sins, members of the Malta Society.
After a trial in which several of
the Jurors were said to have been
bribed the culprits were acquitted.
The people of New Orleans were so
enraged at this travesty of justice
that they went in broad daylight
to where the accused were confined
and killed the entire lot, eleven in
all. The Italian Government
through its accredited Minister to
this country, Baron Fava, imme-
diately demanded the punishment of
the ring-leaders of the mob by the
Federal Government and large
indemnity be paid to families of the
murdered men. President Harrison
and Secretary Blaine at once in
formed the Italian Minister that
they could not punish the ring
leaders of the mob, as the crime
could only be punished by the State
authorities of Louisiana. They also
said that they could not insure the
lives of foreigners temporarily re-
siding.in this country. The Italian
Government refused to accept this
view of the situation, as all their
dealings were with the Federal au-
thorities of Washington, and for
awhile it looked as though war
would result. The matter was
finally settled by President Harrison
sending to the families of the muir
dered men $25, 900 to be distributed |
equally. Nevertheless President
Harrison and Secretary Blaine both |
insisted that the money was not as
an indemnity, but should be con-
sidered merely as gratuity. Short
ly after this affair with Italy several
of our sailors belonging to the man
of-war Baltimore were killed by a
mob in Valparaiso, Chill. The
Gillian authorities attempted to use
the same defense which the United |
States made against Italy, and
which the Sultan is now using, but
the United States refused to enter
tain any such explanation.
A heavy indemnity was demand
ed from the CHILEAN Government
and large naval and land force
were assembled to enforce the claim.
The Chilians, in view of these prep.
arations, yielded and paid the in
Now whether this Gov
eminent can pursue the same tactics
successfully with the Turkish au-
thorities is question. Some of the
jingoe papers are advising the Pres

as light as muslin, as soft as surah, and is
to be had in all the new shades.
Since big round and square collars are

Parisians like the use of fancy wool
fabrics in combination with plain silk
goods. This is a style which gives an
excellent opportunity for remodeling old
dresses.

the other a perpendicular rib, the lining
being used with excellent effect to make
strappings and revers on severe gowns.
Many new fabrics have kind of fluffy

CLEANLINESS have exquisite insertions, in
crustations and runnings of fine ribbon,
all interviewer i'll manner so marvellous
that one wonders how machinery ever ac-
complished the ingenuity of the design
ers.
The newest chatelaine is made of am
Der, and has entirely superseded those of
gold or silver. The amber clasp is mount
ed IN gold, and gold chains hold various
amber appendages-powder box, pencil,
purse, mirror, etc.-which are also
mounted in gold or silver gilded filigree
work.
Many coats show very handsome APP
pliqne braidings of the same shade as the
cloth or of the cloth itself. Close fitting
jackets Of colored melton, notably in
national blue, hunters green and cyrano,
are made like dress or habit bodice,
being rounded in front and having their
tails cut off square or in a slightly
rounded style.
The newest stocks are~ quite original,
and may be worn with any dressy bodice.
They are fashioned of corded or tucked
velvet, and are rounded in front, fasten-
ing to the collar band with stud; but
they open in the back, and lace, chiffon
or net scarf is attached long enough to
go twice around the neck and tie in
fluffy butterfly bow in front.
Word comes from Paris that the
flounced skirt is thing of the past there,
but English and American women will
not accept this announcement, Since they
have just taken to it with enthusiasm.
The founce has decided disadvantages
for autumn wear, for it adds to the
weight of cloth gown and demands that
the skirt be cut very long.
Many smart frocks for little girls are
braided in straight and zigzag lines
around the skirt above the hem. The
majority of the bodices end at the waist
in band, and the jacket bodices usually
are held in place by belt. Yokes are
frequently deliberately braided and sup
plemented by capelike trimmings on the
shoulders, uniting in the epaulette, with
point falling on the fore part of the
arm.
