THE MIGHTY DOLLAR.
A French Appeal to France Not to Hurt
Itself For the Sake of Spain.

While it is very true that France s
sympathy with Spain in her quarrel
with the Yankees is most natural and
most proper, still its expression should
be kept within prudent limits, and it
should not be allowed to come between
the Partisan tradesman and the Amer
lean dollar
1t is for some Of our good Partisan
Journals and also for those of Marseilles
to bear this in mind before it is too late,
and by few finely turned phrases con-
corning the friendship between Wash
ington and Lafayette recall the excited
Yankees to a remembrance of their
great obligation to France. Petit Jour

The pedestrian is amply rewarded

from sea level is more than two miles.
At its base is an enclosed buffalo

buffalos, a remnant of the once count
less thousands which roamed the
country and which were wantonly
slaughtered to crafty the ambitions
of reckless hunters.
Here was spent the Fourth of July,
and one Dominion government official
remarked that he would raise the stars

their favor in the pending war were

trees, and old buffalo trails are seen in

watches forward another hour, having
travelled fifteen degrees of longitude
since the change at Donold. More
than 1000 miles of prairie have been

Baniff Hot Springs the train rolls into
