MILITARY EXPEDITION.

1t was on the first day of May tina,
Admiral Dewey destroyed the Spanish
ships and defences in Manila bay
Twenty-four days later the first detach.
ment of troops sent to REINFORCE him
sailed from San Francisco.
There have been some expressions
Of Impotence because of this delay, and
also because more troops were not sent
But those who criticise the government
on this account can have little idea OF
the difficulties involved in sending 4
large military expedition such a dis
tance.
From San Francisco to Manila is
about seven thousand miles. The voy.
age, under favorable conditions, takes
about four weeks. Ships had to be
chartered and made ready in haste, to
convey not the troops only, but their
weapons, field artillery as we'll as rifles
horses and their subsistence, tents
bedding, hospital stores and miscel-
laneous equipments, together with

Some contemporary, whose name
has been dropped in the shuttle, put
into circulation the following solid
conviction: just now our country
needs religion that will make maj,
pay his debts. We want to bounce
right into a fellow and put him out OF
the church if he goes to a ball or the
ater, but never say a word to the
pious scamp who never pays his
debts. People who never pay their
debts are doing the church more harm
than dancers and drunkards. Reader,
are we getting pretty close to you:
Then lay this paper down and pay
up, and you can read in peace. And
don't stop paying because the statute
of limitations excuses the open ac.
count which you made for meat and
bread. You will pay It in cash or
God will make you pay it in His own
way. God knows no such excuses as
| a statue of exemption.

Prospects of peace have had a
curious influence on business con-
tracts, not quite explainable on
common sense grounds. Nobody
really feared disaster, or exhans-
ton of national resources, and no.
body feared that anybody else
was afraid Of either. Yet orders
unusual in number and size have
been placed since Spain asked
for peace. In some industries
the gain has been Target for about
two weeks, while in some textile
manufactures it has only begun to
appear this week, but it involves
a considerable increase in the
working force. Crop prospects are
on the whole more encouraging,
for the Governments latest report
as to corn is much larger than the
commercial estimates, and its
cotton return promises a heavy
yield, while allowance is made
for its habitual error in it's wheat
return. Money markets show no
sign of possible disturbance,
securities are stronger, and there
is no harmful speculation in
stocks or products. Rarely has
the financial outlook been more
nearly unclouded. - Dun's Re.

Keep the new Territory.

Keep them, is the common-sense an
swer to the much mooted question
What shall we do with the territories we
are c%onquering from Spain? To the OBJ
lection that they are too far away and
that we cannot wisely govern them, the
reply is that they are no farther from the
United States than from Spain, and
that this nation is competant to govern
them better than Spain has done. 1t is
not in the nature of the American people
to give up any territory for which the
blood of our soldiers and sailors has been
shed. When we remember with what
eagerness and jealousy the European
powers recently parcled out Africa, and
how they have wrangled we little
slices of China, it occures to the average
American citizen that outlying posses
sions must be of some value, and that if
they are profitable to England, Germany,
France, and Russia, they will also be
profitable to Uncle Sam. So that, how
yer much the politician may try to make
an issue out Of what they call the inn
perial policy, it is going to be popular
with the plain people to hold on to what
we conquer.

combu.tib.s Sidewalk. spresd Fire.

Fargo Forum: States Attorney Allen,
who is city attorney as we'll, is down from
Bismarck today to secure copies of the
Fargo city ordinances, adopted after the
fire. He wants especially the parts reg
ulating the grades, curbs, width of side
walks-and especially the incombustible
sidewalks. The ordinances will probably
be adopted with slight notifications, by
the Bismarck council. MI. Allen states
that the wooden sidewalks did the same
damage there as at the time of the Fargo
fire by earring the flames from one
building to another. Mr.. Allen speaks
very hopefully of the future of the Cap
ital City, and says the people are going
to work vigorously in their efforts to re-
build the burnt district. There were
strange freaks of the flames as charac-
terized the Fargo flames. Little frame
shacks we're left standing alongside big
three story brick blocks that were con-
sumed by the heat. The fact that the
old freight house was built on piles
created a draft that spread the flames
more rapidly than would have other
wise been done.

In the Alaska Mining Record
of July IS is an account of the
shooting to death of "Soapy"
Smith who had de6ed law in this
northern region for twenty years.
He robbed a man at Skaguay and,
the authorities declining to take
any notice of the matter, the
better element of the town or
ganized and while discussing the
desperado's case he appeared, de-
handed admission, was refused,
whereupon he shot one of the
guards and was himself instantly
killed. The citizens committee
became aroused, caused the ar
rest of ~ tough characters, who
are held for trial, and ordered a
number of suspicious characters
to leave the place with the warn
ing never to return.

THE Carolines form an i'm
portant Pacific group, containing
hundreds of islands. stretching
through a total distance of about
1000 miles, and in some: quarters
there is disappointment because
the Monterey on its voyage to re-
inforce Dewey did not stop long
enough to raise our flag at zap.
But it should be remembered
that at one time it was thought
that Camara's fleet was destined
for the Philippines and the com
mander of the Monterey was, in
all probability, urged to lose no
time in getting to Manila. The

North Dakota Boys.

Forum: In order to show the soldier
boys who went to Manila that they have
not been forgotten the following dispatch
was forwarded them yesterday:
Fargo, N. D., Aug. ~, I8o8.-Colonel
Treumann, Manila, care Wildman, Hong
Kong. Reply paid thirteen words. Con-
CALCULATIONS from North Dakota. Proud
of you all. Keep flag waving.
This was sent to Consul Wildman at
Hong Kong, as he could arrange to get
it over to Manila better than any n else,
and if the cable from Manila to Hong
Kong is in working order it will go over
that, and the extra expense will be born
here. The message to Hong Kong and
the reply cost $50. If the Manila cable
is in operation the cost will be s21.44
more, making a total cost of. s77.44 and
the Forum |has guaranteed the whole
amount which ever way the cablegram
may go. Unless the Manila cable is in
operation it will be several days before a
reply is received, but then if any of the
boys are seriously i'll or anything of spe-
cial note has occurred it will be learned
through the reply.

Revesse stamp Decis,oa.

Persons issueing receipts should notice
carefully how they read. The following
is the latest decision on that point: In
the case of receipts for rent, and where
there are no other recitals, no stamp is
required. But if the receipt contains
any phrase or clause that a be con-
structed as a contract for hire, use Of
rent, then in such cases the receipt is
held to become something more than a
bare receipt, and should be stamped to
its tenor OF effect. The insertion in a
rent receipt Of the words 'sas leased for
August, Iso8."is held TO render it sub
ject to the tax.

Douglas on Expansion.

An Illinois correspondent of the St.
Louis Globe-D Democrat recalls for the
benefit of those spurious Democrats who
refuse to follow the historical Democratic
policy of annexation the opinions of Ste
phen A. Douglas as to expansion. In a
speech at New Orleans in 1858 Mr.. Doug
las said:
at is our destiny to have Cuba, and it
is folly to debate the question. 1t natu-
rally belongs to the American continent.
which is the heart of the American conti-
ton. Its acquisition is a matter of time
policy of receiving Cuba as soon as a fair
and just opportunity shall be presented"
In the same speech he made this
broader declaration of his belief in
American destiny:
II am in favor of expansion as fast as
consistent with our interest and the in
crease and development of our .p,opula-
ton and resources. If that principle pre-
vail, we have a future before us more glo-
AlOuS lld4 llAdL VI Oily OtlICl PGOPAC tiidl
ever existed. Our republic will endure
for thousands of years. Progress will be
the law of destiny. y + X The more de-
grees of latitude and longitude embraced
beneath our Constitution the better"
In the Senate the same year he set
forth his unhesitating confidence in the
beneficial results of expansion:
II believe the interests of commerce,
of civilization, every interest which civil
lized nations hold dear, would be bene-
fitted by expansion"
In those stormy years, when Douglas
was the leader and the idol Of a great
section of the Democracy, expansion was
strenuously opposed in many parts of the
North as opening new territory to slavery.
Slavery and sectionalism have disap-
peared, the latter having been finally Elk.
plunged by this war, which has brought
the opportunity for expansion. The pat.
riotic hopes of Douglas are about to be
fulfilled.
In his advocacy of expansion Douglas
spoke not as a Democrat, but as an
American. Some of the Democrats Of
to-day have forgotten what Democracy
was and what Americanism is.-New
York Sun.
