SO strongly the beginning and the end

work of modern science, the methods
of which are based upon the investiga

that her laws may be learned and I'M

Motive of Annexationists.

From the New York Evening Post.
1t is not moral responsibility, but greed
of gain, that prompts the more influential
part of our Philippine anneXationists. They
want the islands for dwhat they can make
out of them in the way Of trade. That is an
ineligible reason. and is proper one in
so far as it does nottscome in conflict with
the principles which we proclaimed to the
world as our justification ifdr the war. This
was not to be war of conquest or war
for gain. 1t was not not even war for the
liyerance in particular. We promised when
this was accomplishments make peace. Now
this condition has been SO far fulfilled that
it is within our options to have peace on our
own terms. And now4 a few traders calling
themselves export associations, or what not
start up and demand more .bloodshed in order
to secure something (which not one human
being in the country. cared flor four months
ago, and which the whole people would repro
bate and denounce and shrink in horror from
as an original cause .sef war Yet If peace
Is within reach, consistently with the causes
for which we drew the sword, then the pro-
longation of the war on account Of the Philip
pines is the same thing in effect as going to
war afresh on account of the Philippines.

The statement that Col. Roosevelt has been
ordered to Montauk Point is Of much inter-
est to New York politicians. They will be
holding state convention in New York this
fall. Teddy will step up and show his

governor with a hoorah. and he will run

Yes, and be ditched. too.
Teddy is too good a man to be sacrificed
by factional Republicans, and that is what
will happen to him if he is unwise enough
to go after the nomination for governor this
year. He once ran as the Republican candi-
date for mayor of New York, and the Platt
faction knitted him from start to finish. When
a good party man cannot trust his own
party managers. it is evident that the party
organization needs rehabilitation. That's
what Is the matter with the Republican or
ganization of New York state. The best men
in the party do not trust Thomas G.. Plat
and they long ago agreed that the one way
to get rid of him and his machine was to
defeat his candidates every time one was

made up by Bradstreets, compares with pre-
ceding periods as follows:

Proof that normal conditions again rule In
the wheat situation is found in the liberal
decrease in the worlds visible supply shown
by the above figures "A falling off of q, 000,-
coo bushels is shown for the month of July,
this following an equally large decrease in
the preceding month. Since Jan. 1, the de-
cline has only been 69.0O0,000 bushels, so that
the exhaustion of 100000 bushels, two
thirds of this decrease. in two months, may
be said to reflect the return to nominal
prices and consequent normal consumption. At
the present writing 1t may be SAID that the
movement of new-crop American wheat has
not for some reason, probably that of prices

consumption of wheat seems at present fully
equal to the offerings. The almost uniformly

condition of old and new supplies of the

expected to move very decidedly in either
direction, but more especially In the direction
of lower values, which, indeed, may already
be said to have been considerably discounted

Epistles to St. Paul.

The first reliable assurance that the people
OF ST. faul had that peace with Spain was
at hand was given yesterday morning. when
the bulletin beard so long identified with
the Third Edition building disappeared.
1t was surprise to the ten or fifteen people
VINO have been accustomed to gather in front
OF the board on Fourth street to find when
they went to the spot at their accustomed
hour that their favorite medium of misin-
formation was gone. They stood about in
groups and discussed the matter with bated
breath and in whispers of dismay. Was 1t
possible that they were deprived Of their
daily occupation of watching the boy with
the ladder and paste Shaping up sheets on
which was scrawled in big round hand the
news Of last week? It could not be. Surely
the board was only In temporary retirement.
The bulletin boy had been given a day Off,
or something. and the board would resppear
in few hours. So they waited about the
corner and borrowed cigarettes from one an
other until the sun was low in the western
sky, but still the board showed no sign of
coming back.
1t was quite pitiful to see the expressions
Of grief on the faces of some of the bulletin
board deyotees. There was one old man whose
sorrow excited the sympathy of all who saw
him.

futed yesterday. The war Is indeed over.
There can not be any more fighting now. It
would be breach of International courtesy
and an insult to the Third Edition to have
another battle. Shafter must be quite well
again. Miles last picture has been taken.
