In a dispatch purporting to come
from Charleston. the Wheeling organ
of the Republican State bosses claims
on Joint ballot At this late day this
is simply ridiculous. Enough has al
ready been conceded to insure a
Democratic majority on joint ballot be-
yond any question, giving every thing
in doubt to the Republicans. What
new scheme to defeat the will of the
people are the tricksters trying to work
under cover of this crazy claim for
which not a figure nor an iota of basis
in fact is furnished or can be furnished

without hope.
And when the present "bull' cam

selves, for then "bear" campaign

ton. And the clears" will have an
easy time of it.
The Register will repeat it's previous
recommendation to the politically color
blind Republican organ, that,\ if it
wishes to learn the exact business
situation, it interview it's own business
neighbors and examine it's own State
exchanges. If it had done this, it
would not have made it's false and silly

These are facts; not Wall street

A CASE OF ANGLOMANIA.


able utterance in the Fourteenth street
Hanna organ:
Spain accepts all demands Of course
she does. Those who had been watching
the course of Spain knew well she would.
All delays, all haggling, was thoroughly
understood. France and Germany are
not pleased with the outcome but Eng
land is and the United States isn't COM
planning.
France and Germany are not pleas
ed with the outcome, but England is"
says our Fourteenth street neighbor
joyfully; and so according to the Re-
publican organ we. can get along with
out the good will of France and Ger
many and the rest of Europe so long
as England is pleased with us.
How did the Intelligencer make the
discovery that it is good symptom
for the United States when England is
pleased" with us? Since when did
England's endorsement become so val
liable to the United States? How long
has England occupied this alleged
position of best friend to the American
people and when did she develop such
high and sincere regard for their in
terests? This is sudden, indeed, and
a most astounding metamorphosis in
the British lion. 1t is no less astound-
ing, however, than the sudden altera-
ton in the ideas of the Republican or
gan, which a short time ago regarded
everything British from free trade to
British gold as born of the devil. 1t is
remarkably potent illustration of
how a truly good organ can be
brought to first pity, then endure,
then embrace" thing it had always
looked upon with adherence. We
had never thought to see the day when
we should find the Intelligencer on it's
marrow bones before the British
shrine-but these be days of mighty
changes in the thoughts, ideas and
moral attitudes of Republican organs,
changes made necessary by the won
drous alterations imperialism is work
ing in our entire governmental fabric.
But is it safe at this juncture for
the American people to hang on Eng
lands nod and smile for guidance in
our affairs in the new field of imper-
ialism we have entered? What has
England done in the past to justify the
American nation placing such implicit
confidence in her approval, especially
in the new and momentous departure
in government we are making? When
did the British lion give up his CEN
turies-old ways of deceit, duplicity,
selfish ACKNOWLEDGMENT and bloody,
brutal conquest, and become a trusted
counsellor and friend of a rival power
such as the United States? Since when
did England's tyrannous hate of the
American colonies change to. motherly
love of the great American nation
now her only rival for supremacy in
the trade and commerce of the world
and straining to become her only rival
for imperial and military supremacy?
France and Germany are not pleas
ed with the outcome says the Intelli-
gencer. "but England is" Very like
ly. but is this complaisance of the
ravenous British lion, whose jaws drip
with the blood of centuries of conquest,
as reassuring to the lions new rival
for world supremacy as the suddenly
converted Anglomaniac of Fourteenth
street would have us believe?

Europe will never permit us to take the
Philippines at all unless we can meet
and overcome the combined resistance
of Europe and Japan. On this point he
says
From one point of view he the Pres
ident cannot be blamed. There was no

cause refusal meant that he had to meet
the combined fleets of Japan. Russia.
Germany, France and last but not least
Great Britain. and this the widest ex-
pansionist, unless wholly bereft of reason,

had to concede to other nations the mar
kets of his new ill-starred possession.
To such national humiliation Imperialism
inevitably leads"
a. That if we grant the "open
door, we simply surrender to other ma
lions all the trade for which we pay
the enormous price of governing and
defending the hilippines-this because
of what he calls ''the fatal fact of dis
lance" He contends in brief that
every rival we have in the export of
farm, mining and manufacturing pro-
ducts is so much nearer the East than
we are that with an "open door, our
greater expense for freight would prac-
tically exclude our products in behalf
of theirs.
"Mr. Carnegie estimates that the pro-
posed territorial extension will cost
the farmers and workingmen of the
country at least $1OO,OOO,OOO a year.
Chairman Cannon, of the House APP
preparations Committee estimates the
increase at nearly $400.00O,OOO. Con-
corning this Mr.. Carnegie says
There is not dinner-pail that is not
to be laid under contribution: labor is to
bear the burden. There is scarcely a
farmer, nor farm-hand employed by the
farmer nor wage-earner of any kind
who does not use tea or coffee, these
necessaries of life, and there is not one
upon whose hard-won earnings the Pres
ident of the United States, through SEN
ator Hanna. does not propose to levy
tax to support his wild un-American
schemes.
The question now is. what is to be the
response of the farmers and the farm
laborers and the workingmen, the men
of the dinner-pails, to this extraordinary
programmed"
These points do not need argument.
Suffice to say, it was an evil day
when the selfish jobbers and specula-
tors of Wall street to accomplish their
own sordid ends forced the admins
tration to abandon the traditional
American policy under which this
country has grown rich and great and
kept free from those foreign entangle-
ments against which Washington SOL
emily warned us.
Mr.. Carnegie's estimate of the in
creased burden Imperialism will impose
upon the farmers and workingmen OF
the land-s1O0. O0O,O 0O-is too small
Chairman Cannon's estimate of $780,
100000, is evidently nearer the truth.
Yet this mighty sum will represent in
creased taxes alone which will be but
a portion of the real burden American
labor must assume when it is thrown
into open competition with the hordes
that people our new possessions.

On Tuesday the House by unanimous

Wednesday the Senate, also by a unani-
nous vote and without debate, passed the
House bill within the length of time con

In other words, the Senate in fifteen min
utes authorized the President to expend
S50,OOO.OOO if necessary to defend the
honor of the nation. The unity of the
American people may be Il surprise and
a revelation to those unfamiliar with
American character says Washington
correspondent. In some quarters there
has been a belief that the enmities of sec
tiOnal strife and the bitterness of our po-
litical contests had divided the people
beyond the possibility of reunion. But
suddenly the nation finds its peace endan-
gered and its honor menaced from with
out, and 10, in q breath, as it were, every
local dissension has vanished and the peo-
pie are united in common purpose. For
two days at least the United States Con-
gress contained neither Republicans,
Democrats nor Populists, but Americans
only.

words ringing in their ears, every member

BOMBAY NATIVES RIOT.
Resist Sanitary Measures and Murd,
Several Eurnneana


Serious native riots in opposition to the
sanitary measures taken to check the
spread of the bubonic plague have occur
red in Bombay. a plague inspector and
three English soldiers have been stoned to
death by the mob, and other Europeans
injured. Many rioters have been killed
and wounded.
The more ignorant natives have always
resented the measures TO stamp out the
plague. The trouble began when a search
ing party visited the native quarter to
ascertain if there were any deaths from
the plague in the houses of caste Him
docs and Mohammedans. The intrusion
was resented, ani in a surprisingly short
time mob collected which vented its fury
upon all Europeans in sight. The police
fired n volley into the mob, killing six
natives and wounding many others. Bus
mess was suspended and all ayailh ble
troops and artillery were called out.
During the rioting the European officers
and police were severely mauled. Several
civilian Europeans in the streets were
beaten and stabbed, some of them dam
gerously A large number of plague am
balances were seized and burned. At
tempts were made to set fire to the hos
pitfalls, but these were checked. The jam
setjee hospital was the scene of an espe-
cially violent assault, during which one
English surgeon was badly injured. Sue
cessive rifle volleys alone saved the build
ing from destruction. The number of riot
ers killed in these late assaults is un-
known, but is believed to have been great.
British blue jackets have also been landed
to assist in preserving order.

the announcement of the vote-yeas, 81 !;
nays, none-has seldom been paralleled
in the House.
On Wednesday the Senate distanced the
House when it came to prompt action. All
the traditional conservatism of that body
was thrown to the winds. 1t took less
than thirty minutes time and no speeches
to pass the bill in the Senate, while the
House gave up more than three hours to
debate. The blind chaplain had hardly
concluded the usual morning invocation
when Senator Hale, erstwhile the ''con-
servative" of the Senate on the Cuban
question, the friend of the late Minister
de LONE, made the report from the Com
mittee on Appropriations and added that
the committee had unanimously agreed to
the fifty millions. The Senator asked for
an immediate vote and, as is the custom
in the Senate, called for the yeas and
nays. There was no objection and the IA
milar nasal sourd Of the voice of the
Senate clerk rang out announcing n roll
call. Not n dissent was raised.
The venerable Senators sat about with
grave faces. The most distinguished au-
dience that has assembled in the Senate
gallery this session looked down upon the
impressive act of legislation, so unusual
in the Senate. 1t is safe to assert that
never before had that body appropriated
money at the rate of 100000 minute
with such unanimity. The result was an
nounced-76 votes in the affirmative. No
dissenting vote. No Senators present and
not voting. The remaining Senators that
compose the body were accounted for by
the traditional respect for pairs which
characterizes the Senate. No applause
greeted the announcement. The House
on Tuesday applauded, roared, hissed or
laughed by turns. Not sign of approval
or disapproval was raised in the Senate,
for the rule forbids it. AT $40 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon the emergency ap-
preparation bill was signed by President
Mckinley and became law.
When it comes to facilitating business
and making no noise about it. the Senate
stands without a peer Ill the estimd ton
of parliamentarians. Three minutes af-
ter it mad given its assent so unOstenta-
tiously to 4 war measure the Senate
sounded four bells and closed the doors,
in order to work out the problem Of an
unconfrmed postmaster in the sworn Sc
crecy of its own councils
