The Silver Lining.

The Shreveport Times reproduces the following from the pen of Mr. R. H. Edwards, editor of the Manufac- turer's Record of Baltimore:
 What change the war will bring about in trade expansion at home and abroad can searsely be compre- hended now. First, it means a great navy and a great mercantile marine, taxing for years to come the utmost capacity of every ship yard-two things alone which are of incalculable value to our business interests; . the construction with the ut most speed, of the Nicaraguan canal, under Amer ican control, and to the south this canal will annually add greater wealth than its entire cost; the
 development of Cuba, and by good san itary measures the practical elimination of the danger to the south from that country of yellow fever; the establishment of eoaling stations in the Pacific and the con- trol of large part of the trade of the eastern world

the sentiments of the Democrats of the county on every hand. The in- yestigation of the returns show who is the nominee for Sheriff. Are Maj. Mccoy and his adherents afraid to have the frauds in the late primary, perpetrated in Me Coy's interest, exposed? as they will be exposed at the proper time and before the propar tribunal. No, Mr. Brews ter has been honest ly and legally nominated by the Democrats of Jefferson county for Sheriff, and all efforts to defeat him of his well-earned victory, so stub bornly won, at this late hour will prove fruitless. No rew primary in the contested townships will be necessary. We repeat, the returns, when purged of their notorious frauds, will show who is the hon. est nominee for Sheriff.

THE Press Eagle claims Maj. Mo sCoy's nomination for Sheriff by a Dlurality of forty votes. In this estimate the Press Eagle counts thirty-nine votes for Mccoy in Melton township; ninety-three at the Redfeld ballot box and twenty one at the Kearney box in Barraque township. McCoy's total vote in Barraque township, as reported the night after the primary, is ninety three votes-seventy-two at the Redfeld box and twenty-one at the Kearney box. In Melton township the affidavits of those who voted show Brewster received eight votes, Mccoy six; Phillips thirty-four and Philpot five votes. The Press Eagle in these two townships alone makes the mistake of coun ting the Kearney box twice and giving Me Coy thirty-nine votes from Melton, which are shown to be fraudulent.

A "Fair2, Propositfor.

Mai. Mccoy is out with propo- sition in this mornings Prsss Ea.l le in which he proposes to MT. Edgar Brewster to hold another primary, in the contested townships of Boli- var, Boqy aud Melton This the I .Press-Eagle is pleased to call a far proposition " We should like to see where the fairness" comes in. Maj Mccoy and his adherents have proven themselves princes of cleo tion returns and ballot box manip- ulators, and what better treatment has Mir. Brewster to expect at their hands in second than in a first primary. Mr. Brewster now has his nomination already won. The investigation of the charges of fraud in the townships of Bolivar and Melton alone-an inves tigation conducted in the presence of the contestant and contestee and their attorneys-shows conclusively that Mr. Brewster is the honest and le- gal nominee of the Democrats of Jefferson county for Sheriff in the ~primaries held on May ', 1898. This proposition" is the death bed struggle of the Mccoy men, who, in their desperation, are ready to grab at any straw that promises longer tenure of office. They have been fairly defeated by

CHICAGO PAPER INDICTED.
The Publication Doomed a California
Colony Scheme SwindIe.

Los Angeles, Cal, March 1.-The fed
eraI grand jury has indicted the pro-
prietOrs of the Farm, Field and Fire
use of the mails to further a swindling
scheme.
The paper doomed a land colony
scheme in Big Rock district, north of
this city, and it is alleged that the land
is not as represented, and the titles to
it are poor and defective.
H. S. Sweet, one of the owners of the
Chicago paper, was the Los Angeles
end of the deal Oliver Miller of Myrtle
made the complaint. A former grand
jury also indicted the same men, but
they escaped trial on a technicality.

interesting such men in the venture as
he thought would be suitable for mi
litiamen.
After several preliminary meetings
the organization was perfected in June,
1897. The next thing to do was to OBJ
tain recognition from the state. This
was done and the company was mus
tered in as one of the regular COM
panies of the first infantry. Since then
the company has been drilled earnestly
and the Improvement in military dis
cipline is apparent. The armory OF
Company NJ is in the old court house
building. When the election of officers
took place J. z. Towers was hOnored
with the best office in the company The
other officers were selected and they
soon took their places and became IA
miliar with their duties. Many of the
officers and privates of Company NJ are
men who have been connected with mil
itary companies before, and this fact
gives the company the advantage
over one composed entirely of
inexperienced men, In case. of any
trouble occurring in Topeka in which
the militia should be called out, Com
pany M could be assembled and ready
for duty on very short notice, and this
is a fortunate condition for the capital
of the state, where such outbreaks
would more naturally occur.
AS vet Company NJ has received no
notification to be in readiness for duty.
Rumors to that effect have been ahoat,
but they are probably erroneous. cap
tain J. e. Towers says that he has re-
ceived no notification of this kind, but
that he would not be surprised if such
a notice would be given him at any
time There has been considerable
speculation among the members of the
company in regard 10 being called into
service. 1t is safe 60 say that there
is not a man in the company who does
not secretly wish that the K N. G.
would be called into service.
The company contains So men. inclu-
siVe of officers and privates. The fol-
lowing is list of the members:

AMIS MAY RUN.
He Thinks of Entering the Race for
Congress in the Sixth District.

J. w. Amis assistant state superin-
tendent has a boom for congress and he
is considering the advisability of yield
ing to the solicitation of his friends and
entering the congressional contest in
the Sixth district.
Mr. AmiS is ex-Superint endent of
Smith county and was the POpulist
nominee for secretary of state in 1894.
One of the elements which aSpirants
for congress in that district fear is the
Parks-Street combination. While speak
er of the house of representatives last
winter Mr.. Street announced his candi-
dacy for the place. He also exerted
much influence in the state printer con-
test which resulted in the election of
Mr.. Parks. 1t is said that the two
men are now quietly organizing the dis
trict and that they will soon be in a
position to make a strong fight for the
nomination of Street.

HE CALLED THE MAYOR.
Attorney General Boyle Questions
Mayor Fellows Regarding
State Contracts.


Mayor Charles Fellows and Attorney
General Boyle held a conference at the
Iatters office yesterday. 1t was at the
request of the attorney general, and
was for the purpose of giving Mayor
Fellows an opportunity of telling his
side of the story in regard to the con-
tracts taken by him for work on the
state house during the Morrill, admins
tration.
Some time ago a special committee
was appointed by the Populist state
central committee to look into the af-
fairs of the Morrill, administration
with the particular purpose of finding
out how much ''boodling'' if any had
filed a report with the executive coun-
ell, showing the result of its investiga-
tons, and in this report Fellows and
Van SAINT figure prominently as one of
the firms interested in the contracts.
The executive council long ago deter
mined, in the event of sufficient evil
dence being secured, to file civil suits
against the contractors and let the civil
actions form the basis for criminal suits
later on. After examining the report
of the committee, the council decided to
proceed with the civil suits, and for this
purpose referred the papers to Attorney
General Boyle on Saturday.
Mr.. Boyle said that he would hear the
other side of the story first, and ac-
cOrdingly sent for Mayor Fellows yes
terday. The conference lasted several
hours. Attorney General Boyle made
no expression as to what he would do,
and it remains to be seen how Mayor
Fellows explanations impressed him.

TO PURGE PENSION ROLLS.
Former Pension Medical Examiner
Has Plan of Some Merit.

New York, March DIR. John H
Gardner of New York, who some time
ago was a medical pension examiner in
the service of the United States gov
eminent, is the writer of an article in
the March number of the North Amer
lean Review, which will appear tomor-
row, in which he makes a suggestion as
to the method by which he thinks the
pension rolls of the nation might be
purged and the United States saved
millions of dollars every year.
DR.. Gardner contends that: IF the
officials selected by the people to seek
out and properly compensate men who
were disabled in the defense of the I'M
ion, had exercised One-half the care
that the life insurance companies do in
avoiding bad risks, the pension roll
would present a very different appear
ance from what it does today"
The plan which DR.. Gardner suggests
for purging the pension roll is one
which would involve measures to cor
rect the careIessness of the original ex-
aminers.
Here is a method" says DR.. Gard
ner, by which frauds and pretenders
can be gotten rid of. Let congress pass
a law requiring a re-examinatiOn of ev
cry pensioner who bases his claim on
physical disability contracted while dis
charging his duty as a union soldier. a
board of medical examiners should be
boards might be required in some states
Each board should be composed of
two members; one a surgeon and the
other a physician They should be Sc
lected solely for their eminent and
acknowledged ability and their honesty
and standing in the state. They should
give all their time to the work and be
paid a salary of $4,000 a year. They
should carefully examine every pen
sioner in their respective states and re-
port to the government exactly the
physical condition of each and how
much, if any, disability in any case,
was the result of service in the war of
secession. They would be influenced by
nothing except the physical facts pre-
scented, and always give the applicant
the benefit of any doubt. Such an eX-
animation would require about one year
to complete it and would cost the gov
eminent from two to three millions of
dollars. No man can predict certainly
what the result of this examination
would be. My experience for 20 years,
in the practice of my profession, has
made me familiar with the physical
condition of a number of pensions, and
I believe at least one-third of those
claiming permanent disa bility will be
found to be frauds"
