A Kansas City man who was a class.
mate of Schley's at Annapolis says that
the admiral was looked upon as the
best Spanish and French scholar in the
navy. His department at the academy
was modern languages. II remember
one thing In particular about him, and
that is his long legs. He is not notice
ably tall, but his legs are Of wondrous
length and he can run like q deer. In
the navy they never tire Of telling about
Schley in Korea. During the trouble
there we sent q landing party ashore In
charge Of Schiey. The boat had NOT

We believe that after Colonel
Bryan gets back to his beloved state
of Nebraska he will find that "ter-
%ritorial expansion" to the extent of
retaining all which Uncle Sam took
from the Spaniards during the late
wsr, is a popularsdoctrine-and SO
popular that the American people as
q whole will endorse it overwhelm-
ingly. In fact if politics are TO be
drawn along territorial expansion
lines to the extent of holding con
quersd Spanish territory, the annex
alton of Hawaii and the building OF
the Nicaragua oanal-the party
which opposes these propositions

EXPERT TOBACCO TESTING.
Cuban Buyers and Their Highly DO
yeIoped Sense of Smell.

Cuban Buyers and Their Highly De-
veIoped Sense of Smell.
The greater part-in fact, nearly all
-of the tobacco raised in Cuba n not
used by the Cuban cigar makers Is
shipped to the United States. AT certain
seasons of the year the Havana hotels
are filled with tobacco buyers from tine
United States. Some Of them deal
through the brokers in Havana, but
some who know the country and the
language go out into the tobacco dis
trict and deal directly with the plant
ers, often buying a promising crop be-
fore it is picked. The tobacco buyer has
necessarily to be a good judge of tobac-
co. He goes down into the very center
of the bale of tobacco he is examining,
extracts some samples and tests them in
different ways.
The first test is that of smell. The
Cuban tobacco has a strong and peoul-
lar odor. A little variation Il way or
the other makes the tobacco good or
bad. After smelling it the buyer is like
" to roll a rudely constructed cigar out

the smoke and endeavor to determine
exactly the flavor. He will also examine
the ash carefully and test also the COM
bustion of the tobacoo-that is, try TO
find out how long it will hold fire. 1t is
a great annoyance to a smoker who is
talking or writing or otherwise engaged
to put his cigar into his mouth and find
that it has gone out. No cigar ever
tastes so good after ii has one gone ont,
and a fine Havana cigar is positively
rank when it has met such a catas-
trophe. So one quality sought for is
that of holding fire. If a sample smoked
by the buyer will keep lighted four
minutes, it is considered very good.
Some will burn for five minutes and
even longer without being pulled

the problem seems to be this: Shall

the most hostile critic of the expan-

the latter alternative. A good deal
has been said about the illegality,
the unconstitutionality, the impolicy
of annexation; but such criticisms
hit wide Of tho mark. The fact is
that for better or worse, we have
come into the possession of tropical
colonies, and we must either abandon
or administer them to the best Of
our ability, Are any of the anti
imperialists prepared to lead the
retreat? The courage to do so has
nowhere manifested itself. Even
the valiant William J. Bryan in his
recent manifesto evaded this respon-
sibility, and while objeoting to the
acquisition of the debris of SPANS
empire he admitted the necessity Of
temporary military control of tn .
islands, but without defining any
period beyond which such control
should not extend. Temporary may

Too Much Politics.
Minneapolis Tribune.

An ugly rumor comes from the
PHILIPPINES Of discussions among the
officers of the First South Dakota
volunteers because of political diff
ferences. A young Populist doctor
who vas appointed by Coz. Lee as
surgeon, is said to be blamed for the
death Of young Slower, brother q
the Northumberland by ordering
him from the hospital before he
was fit to leave, and one rumor has
it that he has been court martialed
ard dismissed from the service
Whether this be true or not, there
can be no question that politics had
en- tirely too much to do with the
military appointments in South Oak

Senator Pettigrew, who is opposed
to the Nicaragua canal because of
reasons best known to himself, has
succeeded in getting printed as a
senate document, a plea against the
Nicaragua canal made by % Of the
employees Of the French Panama
Canal company
It's i~nexpllcable to Mr., Morgansand
Others why Senator Pettigrew
should seek to favor a canal con-
trolled by France as against a canal
controlled by the United States.
Some persons think that Pacific rail
roads may have something to do
with this singular exhibition of the
South Dakota populist senator, while
others ascrlbe it to a desire to defeat
any Legislation.
1t is utterly out of reason to ex-
pect congress to give any encour-
agement 10 the Panama canal. Even
tl g author of the document which
Senator Pettigrew has had printed
At public expense states distinctly
that it is the purpose to have the
Panama canal free from control by
the United States. III there is any
one thing settled on the canal
question, as shown by all declaration.
made by public bodies in this
country on the subject, il is that any
canal that the United States has any.
thing to do with must be controlled
by tho United States. The Panama
canal has already swallowed up $500
100000 and there is no knowing how
many hundred million more it would
require to complete it.
But il 10 an evidence Of what a
senator calls "monumental cheek
that this French company should
send lobbyists here to work against
tho Nicaragua canal.
One of the arguments made by
this Panama canal advocate is thai
. canal across the isthmus would be
only forty>six miles long, as com.
pared with 176 miles at Nicaragua
But he neglects to state that the
Panama route is all canal, while a,
Nicara qua less than thirty miles
would be canal proper, the remainder
of the distance being a wide
river or lake; also that for commerce
betwe en- northern ATTITUDES the
northern route is 400 miles shorter
than the other, thus saving nearly
two days each way between termin-
ais.
At Panama the divide is 800 feet
above sea level, while at Nicaragua
it is only 146 feet, or less than one.
half,aDd as both projects contemplate
. summit level about 100 feet where
sufficient water supply must be stor-
ed, it will be seen that while at one
place nature has made ample provis-
ions for such storage by a lake COW
ering 5000 square miles or more, at
the other it must be supplied by ex-
pensive artificial works, adding
greatly to the cost and risk.
In fact, in every way the advant.
ages favor the Nicaragua route,
That has been SO thoroughly estab.
tabiished that there is never ever
mention in Congress Of the Panama
route as one in which thsi govern
ment should take any interest,"

as the new' was printed various persons
and institutions all over the country be-.
gan to offer suggestions as to the way In
which the debt on the homestead should
be cleared. The spirit which prompted
this movement was Of course humane

a hero's bravery.
But word has just come from the Hob
son homestead 10 the effect that there IL
no danger Of the property being sold. In
fact, an amount quite sufficient TO pay
the debt has been rendered by the Hob
cons, but refused owing to a misunder-
standing. so there will be no necessity
for generosity. But the incident offers a
