OUR TICKET.

The glorious victory of the Asia
tic squadron under Commodore
Dewey, at the Philippine Islands re-
establishes the United States among
the powers to be respected on the
eas 1t has long been a custom for
European naval authorities and
journals to sheer at the American
navy as about fourth rate, but one
brief engagement has put ar end to
all disparaging, critical talk respect
ing she government, u navy and
the courage and patriotism of tbs
American Gamer This victory is
but a forerunner Of the victories to
come when Commanders Sampson
and Schley meet the squadron of
Spain and with the landing on Cub
an soil of the American army, the
war with Spain will soon be at ali
end. The gallantry of the army is
on a par with that of the navy and
by the time the war is over the
United States will have proved itself
to be a power to be courted and con-
suited in the affairs Of the world. AL.
ready the German journals are fig
airing with concern on the possibili-
ties OF a new "Dreibund" formed
by Great Britain, United States and
japan. With the geographical pos
itions occupied by these nations they
could bottle up the balance of Eur
ope in short order. 1t is among the
possibilities that the foreign policy
Of the United States will be changed
by the outcome of the war and that
the Islands and possessions captured
will be retained under the American
flag. 1t certainly appears reasonable
that we should possess harbors and
coaling stations in the Pacific ocean
to enable our navy to furnish efficient
protection to American commerce
which will receive an unparalleled
comb at the proof of our ability to

protect our own. The British flag
fiving over a vessel has always been
a safe guard but h~enceforth the
American flag will prove just as
reliable a guarantee of the safety OF
the vessel flying it, its cargo and
passengers. All glory be the pio-
neer of this great movement - the
hero who struck the first blow for the
honor Of the American navy and the
freedom of Cuba-Admiral George
Dewey.

II seems there is little or no honor
among Populist oil inspectors the old
adage to that effect to the contrary
notwithstanding. Two years ago when
Robert Emmett Dowdell, the reform

Governor caused him to execute an
agreement in writing to divide the
proceeds of his office with his chief
deputy, NJ. I. De Woody, or as Tom
Ayers put it, all money received for
inspection was to "go two ways
The agreement was drawn in the
Governors office and was duly attes-
ted by his excellency but with that
it was violated, it seems, by the
smooth Dowdell. Mr.. De Woody
claims there is due and owing him
at this time the sum of $3.50 in un-
divided profits which his superior has
neglected and refused to apportion
.'wback up" and "divy." He further
declares he will bring a suit against
Dowdell's bondsmen to receiver
the money, on the groundtha it was
made one of his official duties under
his bond and by the terms of his con
tract that the money should be so
ap%portioned. The proceedings will
be watched with considerable interest
One amusing feature of the case is
that the Governor stated that he
would like to appoint De Woody in.
