NAVAL BILL DEBATED.
Vote VIII Be Taken On the Measure at
One O'Clock Today.

One O'CLOCK Today.
Washington, March 24-The naval ap
preparation bill was taken up in the
House today and after considerable
difficulty, an arrangement was made to
close general debate at ! O'Clock to-
morrow. There was great pressure for
time, but the leaders desired to limit as
far as possible the opportunity for in
flammatory utterances. The debate to-
day was not on sensational lines, but
every radical expression was cheered to
the echo by the crowded galleries.
The speeches of Messrs. Dayton of West
Virginia and Arnold of Pennsylvania
both of whom took advanced positions in
favor OF aggressive action to stop the
war in Cuba, aroused Intense enthusi
asm. Messrs. Routelle, chairman of the
naval committee, and Myers, Democrat
of Louisiana, also member of the COM
mittee, confined their remarks closely to
the bill and the extraordinary emergency
which necessitated the large increases it
carried. Several of the other speakers
discussed political questions.
Washington, March 24-The galleries
of the House were crowded today in an
tioipation of some exciting speeches on
the Spanish crisis during the considera-
ton of the naval appropriation bill.
The leaders had arranged programme
by which the general debate on the bill
should be confined to four hours, two
hours on side. AS soon as the journal
was read, on motion of Mr.. Boutelle,
chairman of the naval COMMITTEES, they
went into committee of the whole. Mr..
Sherman, Republican of New York, in
the chair, for the consideration of the
bin. Mr.. Boutelle stated that it was OK
ceedingly important that the bill should
be passed as speedily as possible. 1t was
the most complete measure for strengthen

What the outcome of this agitation will be
is as yet surmise No good reason can be
given for supposing that the coal companies
would not grant an advance for mining if the
demand be properly made.-forum.

Why should it be made" otherwise I?
And why that word. "demand ?"
Does the miner, seeking work, de
mand" it9
Why can't he ask for increased
wages in the same words and tone he
employs when asking for work
Does the Forum "demand" advertis-
ing, subscription and job patronage,
or does it solicit them?
And then the Forum concludes
Certain it is that the market price Of coal
would now justify the restoration of the rate
paid previous to the suspension of 81
AS pointed out by the JOURNAL last
week, there is considerable misappre-
hension abroad concerning that
matter.
The war has not increased the price
of coal
On the contrary, the statement. is
freely made in the east that ''coa)
never before brought prices as low as
now
The trade papers, always inclined to
take the most cheerful view, say al
most as much-the following from the
New York Engineering and Mining
JonUnnI as an instance:
Business has not recovered yet from the
furry two weeks ago and there is decided
tendency in the far east to postpone orders
now that the conditions are calmer. Many
consumers ordered coal in excess of imme-
diate wants, fearing an interruption of trans
portation. Others ordered at the height of
the furry. and now wish they had not.
The JOURNAL unfelgnedly wishes
for the miners all the pay they can
get, but any demand for an advance"
based upon a higher market price of
coal" will assuredly fail.
They must, therefore, place their
'demand' upon some other ground.

Which is another confederation of
the contention that the people are not
always right.
In spite of which fact. however. that
wellnigh immaculate statesman. Gro
Yer Cleveland, has said on numerous
occasions, trust the people
just here it is we'll to repeat a state
ment made months ago in these col
umns that the ethics of the sentiment

open to question.
For ''our country wong is some

1t is Turkeys defence of Armenian

After all, the people are the country.
and while they continue to 90 right
the country can never 90 wrong.

A Vetoed Criticism.

The Scotchman lately writing for
the JOURNAL in his native dialect, is
taken to task by one who evidently
prefers straight, plain, unembroidered
English. He begins by asking
What ails your raw Scotchman with his
''richt' and his "wrang'-
With his ''fegs, mon" and "ilka'' and other
such slang?
What's ~rong with plain English if you've
got aught to say?
FaiMi no man can be ,7gM who in eoery odd
way
Seeks to mystify readers and render them
To the sense or the moral of any old kind
OF rhyme like to his. Better tell him to
quit.
Then next year, if he will, he'll be welcome
to sit
AT the feet of a sage in Prostitutes new
Normal,
And learn how to write for those trained by
the JOURNAL.
Submitted to the gentleman crit
icized, he writes:
The raw Scotchman takes the critics adj
vice and lmpatiently awaits the coming of
the Normal.
The JOURNAL, however, assures the
"raw Scotchman" that his contribu-
tions were unfeignedly relished, es-
pecially by all of his nationality in this
section. Indeed, the great paper is
authorized to say that the desire to see
in print something from him again and
often amounts to a demand. The
Highlanders of Allegany love to read
the memorabilia which reflects the auld
lung syne, lowland or highland, of
Scottish diction. To them its broad
syllables are sweeter than is the no.
tation of melodies to the devotees of
song.
