against the invasion and depredations
of the foreign wolves. 1t Is not the
foreigner bearing arms against whom
their defenSeS are raised, but 1T is
against him who comes bringing goods
and merchandise with vile intent to
foist them on the confiding and simple
natives, and thus devastate our indus
tries and destroy our Industrial ar
mics. These patriots are our invulner-
able coast defenses, armed not with
mortars and disappearing great guns,
but with tariffs that stand off the in
vader and save our simples from the
terrible disaster Of cheap clothing,
food, fuel and shelter. Valiant defend
ers are they, perpetually pensioned by
themselves.
We heard of one of these the other
day, before the other kind of patriots
had left Camp Ramsey to question
fate in Cuba and the Philippines. He
patriots whose assignment to duty is
to see that no crafty foreigner shall
come over the Canadian border with
his cheap lumber and beguile our I'M
sophisticated home builders into buy
ing 1t. He is one Of those who helped
Dingley build his coast defenses and
man them with customs officers and
revenue cutters. Quite incidentally,
merely to prevent the Infection Of
cheapnesS, partly to compensate him
and his fellow guardsmen for their
trouble in caring for the simple mind
ed mass, he and his squad of patriots
added several million dollars to the
price of the lumber they had made for
sale to home-makers. And why not
out the corn?
They were talking of the boys out in
the camp. Our protector Of society
against lumber invaders told how his
own boys had somehow caught the low
Infection and actually wanted to en-
list and go to war, carry a musket,
eat coarse rations, mess and tent with
the miscellaneous rabbIe, catch their
coarse manners, be contaminated by
their vulgar1ty. He was astounded at
their heedlessnesS. He had put his foot
down hard upon their silly project. He
would have no such nonsense from
his offspring. ut would never do" he
said, never do at all for u.s." incIud-
ing his listeners in an embracing wave

the peace patriot.

Under the new policy the politician who

The question Of governing these col2nies will
not be difficult under the new policy. Hither-
to it has been deemed unconstitutional to an
mex territories that were not states; but that
can be easily arranged by an amendment to
the constitution-or without one, for that
matter. AS all of these colonies are inhabited
by semi-servile peoples, there need be no
question Of government by the consent OF the
governed. The government may be quasi
military in character. AS under the present
Spanish administration. there may be two sets
of officials, civil and military. This would
make two sets of places for deserving men in
and out of the army.

Feared That Later Details VIII Add
Many Names to the Death List
House Blown Away, Stock Killed
and Fruit Orchards Destroyed by
the Storm - Some Narrow Es-

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. May o.
The tornado which passed through a
portion Of Northwest Arkansas Friday
night did immense damage to property
and caused the death of at least seven
persons.
Reports Of the destruction are COM

to the death list.
The storm came from the southeast
RAISING through the great fruit belt Of
the Ozark fruit region, and tore it's
way through the southern end of Ben
ton county, spending it's force in the
White river valley. Everything in its
path was destroyed, the greatest dam
age being done near Elm Springs, Low
ell and Mud Town, the latter place be-
ing entirely swept away.
At Elm Springs houses were blown
down, orchards destroyed and stock
killed. One man who had sought safe
ty In a cellar was killed by falling TIM
bers. The house blew away and the
cellar was filled with debris, crushing
the man to death.
Two miles east of Elm Springs a
man named Killing sworth and his wife
were killed. Their house was entirely
destroyed and they were crushed to
death in the debris. A mile away
farm house occupied by an italian fam
lily was wrecked and the inmates were
Instantly killed. The residences of w.
Fl. Holcoanb and w. B. Pierson were
destroyed. Twenty houses are report
ed blown away in the vicinity of Elm
Springs, but details have not been re-
cetved ~'' '' ~'---. go '
The storm was less severe in Craw-
ford County, but one life was lost near
Fort Smith. A Mrs. Nesbitt died from
fright While the gale was at it's fiercest.
The home of W.. S. Mimbrcugh, near
Springdale, was blown down and Kim
broush was instantly killed. Several
other farm houses were blown down
near Springdale and six to eight per-
sons more or less seriously injured
Some damage was also done at Low

contention that it cannot recognize any

written In 1884, which, 1T contends,
shows that Lord Derby intended to

In 1861 the Atlantic Monthly showed its
spirit by putting upon its covers and title
pages the flag of the Union. in place of
the efigy of John Winthrop. its original
emblem. while its real patriotism was evil
denced by the character of the contributions
which enriched it's pages.
In the number for June the Atlantic will
publish the same flag on its cover, and give
the place of honor to a calm, judicial. but
patriotic summary of our Cuban relations
with Spain; the causes of the present war
and the problems likely to arise from it..
TIE Atlantic finds the collision to have been
inevitable between the medieval methods Of
Spain and the highly civilized ideals and
strong ethical sentiment of the United States.
