OUR TRADE AND MExIcos.

AS a dutiful administration organ,
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat is al
ways reluctant about admitting the
possibility of existing in double
standard country. For campaign pur-
poses it never fails to lament the ig-
norance of those who transact business
with silver money,
AS a matter of news, however, rath-
er than argument, it prints a long
letter from the Mexican capital, show
ing the general prosperity and marked
progress of the people of our sister
republic.
The United States have made a great
many sales, and owing to wars and
famines, the expectation of breadstuffs
has been unprecedented for a year.
The wheat fields of the world, except
our own, were almost barren, and the
regular customers of India, Russia and
Argentine turned to the North Amer
lean farmer to barter for his grain.
But Mexico has fiourished, too, and
without a special demand for any of
her products; fiourished in a natural,
healthy way. The total sales to out
siders during the past fiscal year
reached $4,000, 600 in round numbers,
or $22,000.000 more than last year.
In proportion to the volume of bust
ness done, this shows an increase equal
to that of the United States, without
special stimulus. Owing to the fact
that Mexico is not handicapped by a
prohibitory tariff, her receipts and ex-
penditures show a balance on the
proper side of the ledger, and substan-
tate the claim that the national debt
viii be disposed of in few years.
Our own annual deficit of millions,
exclusive of the war account, does not
compare favorably or at all with the
record Mexico is making; nor does it
reflect the superiority of our economic
system.
The prosperity of Mexico is admitted
everywhere, except, possibly, in Re

THE SENSATION OF THE DAY.

The great sensation of the day is the
suicide of Colonel Henry; it revives in
terest in the Dreyfus case, and may re-
suit in the liberation of the man whose
fate has aroused much sympathy and
divided the world into adherents and
opponents Of him, into those who claim
he is innocent and those who charge
that he is a villain of the blacklist
kind.
Every Interpretation possible will be
placed upon Colonel Henry's action.
Already the intimation has come from
Paris that his suicide was connived at
by prominent army officials. About the
only thing thus far established is that
Henry was a bastard and that a for
gerry was committed. That a forgery
was committed does not prove that
Dreyfus is innocent, but it certainly
does throw suspicion upon the trust
worthiness of the evidence upon which
he was convicted. The forgery was
part of the evidence on which the
French government rested its case, and
people will naturally say that if one
forgery was committed, why may not
others have been?
Certainly this suicide puts the French
government in a very embarrassing
position and gives a favorable impress
sion of Dreyfus side of the case. 1t
may result in the return, and in tri-
umph, of lola, who was the champion
of the exiled officer. But was there
ever a more scandalous case all
through than this Dreyfus case? No
novelist ever pictured such court room
scenes as were witnessed during the
first Zola trial.
This suicide of Colonel Henry, when
all the circumstances are taken into
consideration, will pretty nearly put
France on trial in the eyes of the
world.

GENERAL JOE WHEELER TALKS.

There is no man in the army. regu-
lar or volunteer, who is more popular
than General Joe Wheeler; and then
he is every inch a soldier He has been
trying to straighten things out at
! Camp Wikoff. but he is having much
trouble Some of the officers uoon
whom he has to depend do not seem
to have sense enough to go in VIXEN it
rains
The correspondent of one of the Chi
| cago papers says that the other day
| he summoned Colonel Forwood and all
| the re~imental surgeons to his head
quarters. and informed them he had
received complaints of lack of medi-
cines from all sides. He wanted to
know from each surgeon whether the
complaints were true or not, and all
said they were. The correspondent
then details this conversation;
Turning to Colonel Forwood, General
| Wheeler. said:
How about this? Didn't you tell me
there was enough medicine here for
{ everybody"
Il did. and there is plenty" said Col
oneI Forwood. "The whole trouble is
that the regimental surgeons don't
send for it. If they send for it they will
get it,"
Then you have enough for the pres
ent?" said General Wheeler. Il have
sent for more, and it will be here be-
fore long. Now, 1 want you surgeons
to make out your acquisitions day by
day. and see that they are filled. L
want no more complaints about lack
of medicine
At 10 o'clock Monday morning
Wheeler again summoned all surgeons
to his tent. 81 have brought you here"
he said. ''to find out if you have done
what 1 told you to do, and have plenty
of medicine"
All the doctors said they had except
ing DIR. Woods, who again complained
he could get no medicines.
Did you make recuisition for what
you wanted?" asked General Wheeler.
Il did," replied DR.. Woods.
"Was it honored?"
1T was not"
well. Colonel Forwood, perhaps you
can explain
"Reeuisition was sent, but no trans
portation.' said Colonel Forwood.
DR.. Woods admitted that, and said
he had but one horse. Wheeler looked
very weary.
How many do you need?" he asked.
Three" said Woods.
''Dr. Woods. didn't it occur to you
you might have sent your one horse
over three times?'
Dr. Woods made no response. Ad-
dressing all of the physicians, Wheeler
said:
There is now no excuse for any of
you complaining of lack of medical
supplies. Everything you ask for will
be given TO you. You know now how
to get anything you want, and l viii
take no excuse for lack of SUPPLIES
from any of you from now on
General Wheeler took precisely the
right course and it should result in
bringing about some reforms. But
when doctors in the army do not know
enough to get medical supplies it is
not 10 be wondered at that their pa
tients suffer from neglect. Perhaps
most OF these surgeons are contract
men, and secured their appointment
through favoritism. The above /Onver-
sation shows what precious lot some
of them are.

PAYING INTEREST IN ADVANCE

official announcement is made that
the interest on go, - nment bonds.
which is due October l, will be paid on
the 10th inst. The reason for this is
that the treasury is gorged with money
at the present time.
1t is satisfactory to know that the
treasury is full, provided the money
therein represents income and not out
go. The present fullness of the treas
ury is more the result of outgo than
income; it represents Increased in
debtedness. The repletion of the treas
ury vaults is the result of the war loan,
and nothing else. There was never any
need for the loan, and out of the money
in hand the government could have
betrayed every expense of the war and
not have been the least bit cramped,
much less embarrassed. When it was
finally determined to Issue bonds, COM
mon business sagacity would have die
tated that only such amounts should
have been offered for sale from time to
time as might be necessary; the small
er the amount offered, the more eagerly
it would have been taken up. Thf war
has cost less than a hundred andHdfty
millions, but the government has en-
numbered itself with an unnecessary
Indebtedness of two hundred millions.
1t is bad financial management and will
prove a bad political investment. The
hope of the country for relief from this
unnecessary Indebtedness lies in the
war revenue law.
