grows by what 1t feeds on through too
much reliance on the Micawberian

George Washington said that "ag-

and ours and comprehend the giant
strides that have been made in that
calling. one man now can do as much
a six men could hundred years ago.
and there are now wealth giving re-
turns from lands which then would
have been undlsturbed because of
lack of knowledge as to how to treat
and cultivate them. If he could have
foreseen all this he would have added
as the conclusion of his syllogism the
word "prohtable;" but IL he had then
been shown that with all our advance

IN TIL PHILIPPINES.


News is now eagerly looked for from
the Philippine Islands where. perhaps
the first naval battle OF the war will be
fought. Manila, the capital of the
group is sixty hours voyage from
Hongkong, and Commodore Dewey's
Asiatic squadron should be there to-
morrow. Saturday. With Manila cap
tured. the Spanish commerce in eastern
Asia would be crippled, and most likely
the whole group of Islands pass from
the Spanish crown.
The Philippines We're discovered in
1921 by Magellan and were taken by the
Spanlards during the reign of Philip
V, for whom they were named. This
was fifty years later. Practically moth

converts to the Roman faith. The his
tory of the colony Is one of almost con-
tlnuous rebellion against Spanish OPP

the purpose of subjugating the lnsur-
gents. The horrors on record in those
far away regions are surpassed only by
those that marked Spanish rule in
South America. In 1862 Mapila was
captured by the English and was held

cles in France and that the reserves

most significant. But as there is as
yet nothing to Indicate what the real
purpose of this extraordinary military
activity is, only surmises can be in
dulged in. 1t is known that French
sympathIes are with Spain, but 1t is
not to be supposed that France in
view OF the attitude of Great Britain,
will. at this early stage OF the combat,
feel called upon to put on the armor
In behalf of her neighbor. A more
reasonable conjecture is this that
France anticipates the downfall of the
CASTLE kingdom and is DESTROYS of Sc

Tendencies that are about to fall like
II ripe fruit from a tree shaken by

would France consider her share?
Would she demand Cuba? Or the
Canaries. on which already she has a
lien? Or the Philippines. to prevent
them from falling into the hands OF
Japan? In either case, Internal aal
questions would arise probably too in

for any emergency that might arise on

mobilizing her forces merely for the
purpose Of defending the crown OF the
queen regent against her own rebellious
subjects, and 1t may be that the war
preparations in France have no
other aim than demonstration
against possible Spanish revolutlonists
II Is nevertheless significant that the

The evident purpose OF the Herald ar

Weather of the most favorable character
for the spring crop and reported depression
Of prices at Liverpool and London caused a
weak feeling here at the opening July was
much weaker than more distant deliveries.
owing to the freedom of the movement OF
new wheat and the consequent greater re-
luctance of millers and shippers to continue
paying premiums for immediate delivery. The
weather in the United Kingdom and con-
tinent was said to be favorable. Harvesting
was reported progressing in Russia and Rou-
mania, with prospects of an enormous yield.
The spot price here was down 4c and out
side markets showed a corresponding decline.
Futures became heavier under that break
in the cash markets. and prices continued
on the downward course until the close OF
the session.
The total receipts at the. Western primary
markets were 10000 bu, against 100000 blu
