selves. This republic has entered up
on new epoch. Precedents are being
established which tend to radically al
ter the traditional policy of the country
Washington could not foresee the
conditions of the century beyond him
and hence he believed that this repub.
lie would always be isolated. President
Monroe uttered doctrine which is dear
to our people, but he could not forsee a
warfare for the protection of Spanish
subjects from Spanish tyrants upon
American soil. Lincoln, Jackson, Grant
and even Cleveland could not peer into
the future and see what destiny had in
store for US as participant in the de-
velopment of the world.
The international lawyer, the phil
osopher who pores over the map of the
world, and studies the movements of
nations in their onward marches, will
not need the eye of seer to discern
that in very brief space of time the
stars and stripes will be floating over
the Philippine islands, the Hawaiian
islands, Cuba, Puerto Rico and the
Canary islands.
After taking possession of them what
will we do with them? That is an en-
tirely different problem. Its solution
will depend upon circumstances, some
of which are yet undesirable because
undeveloped.
Among statesmen of prominence
there is no dissent concerning the con.
ditions of American development in in.
ternational affairs. On the contrary
it is generally agreed that present con.
ditions and visible developments of the
future indicate the manifest destiny Of
this republic to extend its power and tc
exert international influence, in order
that our strength at home may be main,
tanned and the perpetuity of our insti.
+utions may be assured.

CONTEMPLATED Aluminium.

A German engineer has recently sue
ceeded in plating aluminium with cop
per by a welding process, and makes
the combined materials in such forms
that they may be 9 soidered, rolled,
drawn and plated. If this process is
successful on commercial scale it
would seem as if the increased useful
ness of aluminium is to become prac-
tically unlimited, as the copper coating
would remove all obstacles to its use
where it must be in contact with fluids,
soldered and painted or plated.-Chica-

Getting Ready.

Preparatory work for the next Mn
nesota state fair is now being actively
pushed Premium lists, entry blanks
and other material is being sent out in
large quantities from the secretary's
Office, and carpenters, painters and
laborers are at work upon the grounds
and buildings. When it is remembered
that the grounds comprise 200 acres
and that there is over 800. 900 square
feet of floor space in the various build
ings, the necessity for the beginning
work early and pushing it actively
will be readily understood. This year
no state fair in the country will excel
in exhibition and amusement features
the one in Minnesota.
One of the departments now receiv-
ing special attention and which, as
heretofore, will be made especially
strong, is the cattle departments. The
premiums are liberal and conprehen-
sive. In addition to those offered by
the society, the Hereford CATTLE B 'eed-
ers association offered $500 in special
premiums; the Shorthorn Cattle Breed
ers association offers to duplicate pre-
miums won by the shorthorns in CON-
petition with other breeds. and other
breeders associations are announcing
similar offers.

The annual appropriation for the ma
tional guard is $40, 600, but the state is
not limited to that sum in this case.
BY law of 1897, which came very
timely, the entire revenue fund of the
state Is available for war purposes in
emergencies. Gen. Muehlberg can
draw on the treasurer for every cent
he can scrape up, and the drafts will
be honored if the governor pronounces
it an emergency. Whether the orig
inal appropriation for the national
guard would be considered untouched
when the money was spent, as in this
case. for ends outside of the guard.
would be another question.
The pay roll is the biggest item. The
companies drew amounts ranging
from $3.50 to $3.50, and the total is SAL
292.2 20. There is also 81, 12l for music

The bills for feed and so on amount

There is an item of $472 10 for 45e

A PHILOSOPHERS DEATH BED.
Odd Premonitions of the Coming of the
Fatal Hour.

Odd Premonitions of the Coming of the,
Fatal Hour.
A French physician, says an ex-
change, has recently expired in a truly
professional manner. as well as with
the serenity that man should show Ill
his last hour. He pointed out the pre-
else moment when his pneumonia de-
veloped fatal symptoms, and predicted
exactly when death would supervene.
If he knew as much about other peo-
ple's condition as his own, he must
have been loss to his patients. Haller
died in a somewhat similar manner.
Feeling his own pulse when he found
it almost gone he turned to brother
physician with, my friend, the artery
ceases to beat" and died. Keats, less
technical and accurate, but with an
equal perception of his approaching
end, said: ct feel the daisies growing
over me-" The failure Of sight
= when unto dying eyes the easement
slowly grows a glimmering square"
is the omen most generally recognized.
Some, however; have not only no pres
cience of their coming fate, but their
conviction is entirely tn" other way.
II do not mean to be killed today" was
the remark of the great Turenne mo-
ment before he was struck by the can
nor shot that killed him.
