1t is now claimed that the only title
Spain ever had to the Philippines was a
papal bull which originally divided the
world between Spain and Portugal.
Spain once did own a very respectfully
sized part of the earth's surface, but
her cruel and bloodthirsty methods of
administration have lost to her all of
her colonial possessions, except a few
inconsequential islands in the eastern
Atlantic, and the Caroline islands in
the Pacific, so that there is now no ex-
cuse for the existence of any colonial
office at Madrid. All of South America
was once divided up between Spain and
Portugal, as we'll as the countries to the
north, but not one parcel Of land on
either the North or South American
continents remains in the hands OF
either Portugal or Spain. All is gone,
and of Portugal nothing Is left but a
little duchy-like kingdom and the few
little mountain peaks in the sea known
as the Azores; while at the rate Span
ish territory is fading away, the very
name of Spain itself will probably be
wiped from the face of the earth in
100 years.

by the window and looked out into the

Her arm hung down at her side loose

Susan watched her closely. Then all

tion of her grandmother and how, when
the old lady had made up her mind
that such and such a thing was SO, no
power on earth could disillusion her. So
she left the old lady to herself and went
on about her house work.
After q bit she looked through the
parlor doorway. Her grandmother was

odd twists. The paralysis was leaving

For those members of congress hail
ing from the New England states who
are opposed to the annexation of the
Philippine islands, there is a surprise in
store, and one which will not add to the
stock of self-sufficiency already on
hand. When congress convenes next
week, and the western members arrive
in Washington, the change in the an
n~exation atmosphere will fairly take
the ants breath away. The men of the
west. many of wnom have seen an en-
pire evolved from a desert, are heartily
in favor of taking care of all the islands
which have been coded by Spain, and
they will make known their desires in
that direction with a frankness ana
force that will sweep all opposition be-
fore it. Western men, as a rule, ara
progressive and aggressive, and the
presidents intentions regarding the re-
tention of the islands in Asiatic waters
will be upheld by the western members

the Santa Fe Railway Company has
completed arrangements to run a regu-
lar fleet of passenger and freight steam
ers from San Diego to the islands and
the Australian ports in competition
with the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany. An American registry for Am
erican vessels is now becoming the de-
sirable thing, and the open door of
the Philippines has given an impetus
to American trade in the Asiatic ports
that means an immense increase of
iental consumption.

The ACQUISITION of the islands in the
Pacific ocean by the United States and
the likelihood of further expansion in
the direction of the Asiatic coast. have
come to be accepted in commercial cir
cles as the harbingers of an extended
revival of the ship building interests
on the Pacific coast. This means q very
marked addition to the general coma
mercial status Of Seattle, Tacoma,
OLYMPIA, Portland, San Francisco, and

The attitude of the Republican part

The attitude of the Republican party
of New Mexico has always been con-
sistent on the question of the admission
of the territory as a stare. We favored
the admission of the territory when the
Democratic party was united in their
opposition against it. We still favor
it's admission, believing that there is no
good and substantial reason for keeping
us out of the Union as a state and be-
lieve that this can best be accomplished
by the election of delegate to congress
who is in harmony with Republican
politics and principles.-Republican
Platform, New Mexico, 1898.

right arm with the fingers of her left

mouth seemed to be drawn at the cor

went on. A little moisture had collected
in her eyes. "I'm past 80 and have al

ALL SHOULD VOTE FOR IT.

From the Montgomery Advertiser
 The Advertiser has more than once called the attention of the voters in the coming election to the importance of voting for the conststitutional amendment for the city of Birmingham. This the citizens of Birming- ham ask for, and it Is necessary to put her on an equal footing with the other large cities of the state, and to enable her to maintain the excellent public school system, her sanitation and public improvements and protect her public credit.
 While the people of the state will have none of this increased taxes to pay it is due to the city of Birmingham, which is the industrial center of the state, to give her people the privilege of increasing her taxes to meet the very rapid and increasing demand for enlarged school facilities, for sanitation and for pub lie Improvements, and we hope our friends will vote for 1t and SC etc it that the amendment Is adopted. Every man who casts a ballot should vote for the Birmingham amend necessary to vote for the amendment be- caus majority of the whole vote cast must be voted for the amendment. That is, if 100000 votes are cast, more than half that number must be cast for the amend ment or it will fail. Birmingham is entitled to the relief asked for, and as it hurts no one every vote of every party ought to. be cast for 1t.

Comfort Before Country.

There are very distinct indications of peace. Spain can only fight at home. Her fleets are destroyed. Her colonies are oc- cupied or shut up. She can not reach them. She cannot even communicate with them, except in an indirect and uncertain manner. The end is plainly near and yet congress did not hesitate to adjourn. The desire of personal comfort in hot weather and the desire to repair political fences were greater than the desire in the breast of the average congressman to serve his country.
 Senator Morgan from his place in the sen ate opposed the proposed adjournment. ..The very moment he said, that the treaty of peace is signed by the president and the government of Spain. the military power of the president will cease, and the legislative branch of the government must provide a government for any territory we may acquire by the war. The power of congress comes immediately into effect, and we ought to be here to exercise it.
 Senator Morgan proceeded to denounce adjournment, instead of a recess, as a nasty, improvident and dangerous stcp s'It seems to me-" he further said, "that the war with Spain is drawing to con- clusion. The ending of the war will bring to congress questions of the highest i'm portance, of the gravest consequences in our history. I should not be satisfied to go away in the circumstances, leaving the president without our support We do not know what emergencies confront us, what dangers lie just ahead. If the army in the intense heat of a tropical sun can stay in the field, we, in the midst of comfort, can remain here. It would be a reproach to the government if, after we had gone away, the president in thirty or forty days should call us back, and I do not doubt that he will do so."
 Senator Morgan's appeal to duty went unheard and unheeded, and yet every member felt that treaty of peace might be signed within thirty days, and every member knew that when treaty had been ssxSed the president had not power to ap- point even a policeman in any newly-ac- auIred territory. His war powers are ex-
