A BONE OF CONTENTION.
American bishop Predicts Europe
ans Will War on African SOIL.

american btBhOp predicts EuFOPe-
ans Will War ON African Soil.
1t has been predicted that Africa
would be the theater of the great strug-
gle between, says the Lynchburg Ad-
vance, European powers in the next CEN
fury, as America was in the last two CEN
turtles. Bishop Hartell, of the Methodist
Episcopal church, after close observa-
ton of the situation, Endorses the opin-
ion. There are already signs of the COM
ing trouble. Germany is watching Brit
ish progress in Africa with jealous eye
and only wants a preteXt to in
terfere in order to stop that prog
ress. The French are continually
encroaching on the sphere of British in
flrences, and though the French govern
ment disowns the acts CT overzealous
French officers, still the government
holds whatever they acquire. Africa is
a rich prize, and English, Germans and
French, to say nothing of Italians, will
all seek to gain as large slice of the
continent as possible. 1t requires no
prophetic powers to predict that Eng
land will outstrip all her rivals in the
race. She has firm foothold now both
in Egypt and south Africa, and every
year is acquiring additional territory.
England is the great colonizer of the
age, >and her great naval power will
give her an immense advantage in the
coming struggle.

eREAr QUANTITIES. OF HOOD.
The Productive Power OF the UAited
States 10 Now In Evidence.

Michael G. Mulhan, F. 8. s.. in North
American Review, writes: It appears
that as regards quantity three Ameri-
cans now export as much as five did
20 years ago, which suffices to show how
groundless are the predictions of some
writer's who tell US that as population
increases so the surplus products for
expectation must diminish. In the
last 20 years population has risen from
45,OO0,0O to 71,O00,0 900 souls, an increase
of SO per cent, and at the same time
the weight of exports has risen ITS
per cent; that is, three times as fast
as population. .... ...
The quantities Of food yearly ex-
ported are sufficient to feed 10000, COO
persons in Europe, from which it ap-
pears that American farms raise feed
for 1oo,oOO,Ooo people yearly. The west
ern prairies are capable of carrying
double the present number of live stock.
and producing ten times as much grain
as they do, so that. for at least a century
to come, there is every probability that
the expectation of food will increase
with population. The same is true as
regards cotton, the crop having risen
125 per cent. in 20 years.
The world is only beginning to have
evidence of the enormous productive
power of the United States.

WOULD REvoLUTIoNIzEscI SCIENCE
No Toad Has Ever Been Found In
closed In Solid Rock.

No TOAD Has Ever Been Found In
closed In Solid Rock.
Stories of toads inclosed in solid rock
are not at all uncommon, but of all the
reported cases not one has ever been
substantiated. When investigated, says
the Milwaukee Journal, it is found that
they are made-up stories or that there
was no toad or no rock or was way
for him to get in or out. People who
find toads in solid rock must under
stand that it is an important matter.
If ever there is one single case verified
beyond dispute of finding toad or any
other living animal in an absolutely
solid rock the science of geology willie
swept from the realms of belief. The
doctrine of evolution will crumble to
airy nothings. Half Of the exact sci
ences will have to be reorganized on
an entirely new basis. Accumulated
human knowledge will have to be re-
vised from the bottom and most of what
is so called rejected entirely. SO the
man who finds the toad had better Re
pretty sure that it is toad in solid
rock, and while he is about 1t he had bet
ter have witnesses and photographs and
everything possible to be had in proof
Of his assertion, for IL will be doubted.
II he proves his cause mo man ever
Known will have such enduring fame.
Just Rnd the road gentlemen.

GERMANS ATTEMPT TO HEDGE
THE STORY OF INTERNATIONAL
AGREEMENT Is DENIED.
Seeking to Explain Away the Incon-
. sistency of Their Position In the
Philippines-Unsought Advice.

Berlin, July 3-The Wolf News
Bureau has issued an official denial
of the statement that Germany, France
and Russia have reached an under
standing relative to the Philippine
islands and and that an international
congress will be. held when the Span
iSh-American war is over, similar to
the Berlin congress of 1878, so far as
Germany is concerned. The statement
thus denied was published in the
Frankfuerter Zeitung.
London, July 4-The Berlin CORE
spondent of the Times says: German
public opinion and the general press,
which are not always identical, are
now thoroughly awakened to the in
consistency of the position in which
German policy has been placed by I'M
fortunate articles on the subject of
the Philippine islands. The papers are
now trying to explain the matter away.
The Cologne Gazette entirely evades
the point when, in long article on
THE Nervousness of the United
States,' it tries to show that the real
grievance of the Americans is the lack
of sympathy displayed in Germany for
the American cause.
Both the Cologne Gazette and the
National Gazette publish articles eX
planning that it is not surprising that
the German papers criticised America
at the beginning of the war, but this
course was necessitated neither by the
dictation of the nation or anxiety as
to the future of the Philippines.
The National Zeitung considers it
ludicrous to discuss a partition of
bear skin before the bear is killed.
We it says, from our own sor-
rowful experience, know what surprises
a conclusion of peace and peace con-
gress are wont to have in store. In all
human probability the Spaniards will
lose their colony, but the Americans
will not be the only gamers in the
struggle. In Cuba, as in the Philip
pines, they will have to reckon with
the insurgents now. The abandon
ment of the Philippines to the natives
would undoubtedly lead to the inter-
vention of Europe. With all their dis
like of warlike complications, European
states allow no trifing with their in
terests. No one menaces the Ameri-
can union. Diplomacy has even been
excessively polite to the Yankees out
of consideration for their sensitiveness,
but it has been assumed that they will
respect the rights of others"
The Kreuz Zeitung warns America
that neutrality might not be main
tanned if the Americans were to bonn
bard Spanish ports"

PLEA Fo4- THE VOLUNTEER.

My country calls me- Mother, nay;
Unwind thy arms, nor bid me stay.
Would st have a coward FOR thy son?
Break, then, this sword my father won.
What sayest thou? I cannot hear
BetwiXt thy ceaseleSs sobs and tears.
ThOu'rt old and cannot be alone?
Alasi How swift thy faith has flown
What's that? Thou fearest lest 1 may,
Perchance to dread disease fall prey;
Or else upon the field be slain
In this unhappy war with Spain.
And if I should; hast thou forgot
My fathers was the soldiers lot?
His country called him not in vain:
His sword did million souls unchain.
And now. near by in Cuban lands
Are struggling souls with Outstretched
hands,
Homeless and starving whom this sword
may free,
Yet sayest thou this must not be.
BIT I'm thy all. Thou can'st not give
Thy son that others sons may live.
Well. then. III stay, Now dry thy tears;
I'll bide with thee through all thy years.
But if some night there come to haunt
Thy peaceful sleep a mother gaunt
With famished babe pressed to her breast,
Dost think, dost think that thou can'st

ira improvisation for the excess over eight
hours per day worked. Should The plain
tiff in the case of II. II. Peterson vs.. the
City of Salt Lake secure a jurgZnent for
the amount claimed, other ex-city en-
ployees viii come il on similar grounds
with claims for varying amounts. The
courts have decreed that mining con-
pauies are amenable TO the eignt-hour

cipai corporations are likewise required to
comply with its provisions.

ney, William Mckay, the plainttm alleges

he was required to work y hours per day
instead of on an eight-hour basis.

of action, Plaintiff Peterson sets up tina
the claims of Joseph W. Cottles his com
been duly assigned to him. These claims
vary on q basis Of 500 per month from
July l, 1894, TO $50 monthly from Sept
], 1894, until Feb. 6, 1885, and $50 month
from tnen till Feb. 2, 1898, all on -
theory OF eight hours for days w0r..
whereas Il hours daily service were rem
dered. for which extra time Of -four hours
a day nothing has yet been paid by the
city.
Judgment, with interest at the legal
rate, is-demanded IN the sum of s95I.33 on
the first cause OF action and for an ag-
gregate of 81 $3.50 on the three assigned
