A New COMPANY,

Patriotism is still a very live article in
North Yakima, as evidenced by the or
ganization of new company of volun-
teers in this city last night.
The meeting was held in the armory
and was presided over by A. S. Dam. +.
b. Watt acted as secretary. The only
business transacted was the election oil
officers, which resulted in selecting DIR. Z.
f. Heg as captain, F. X. Hiscock as first
lieutenant and Frank Liggett as second
lieutenant. The result of the meeting
was telegraphed to Governor Rogers, who
will be asked to commission the officers

SCHOLARSHIP CONTEST.
CHANCE TO OBTAIN A BUSINESS
EDUCATION.
THE AMERICAN" WILL HELP THREE
YOUNG PERSONS TO HELP THEM
SELVES-THIS TELLS HOW.

Now is the time for Ellsworth's
young people to hustle for the free tuition
offered by THE AMERICAN at the Shaw
business college. AS previously stated
The AMERICAN has at its disposal
three scholarships at this college,
BY Scholarships" is really meant tuition
fee. We have three OF these; one for six
months, worth SiS; one of three mont his
in the stenographic course, worth S32,
and one of three months in the regular
business course, worth S24. That is to
say: Any person going to the Shaw
business college from Ellsworth, or from
anywhere else, would pay those sums for
tuition.
The Shaw business college has branches
at Houlton, Augusta and Portland; it is
one OF the best organizations OF the kind
in the State. 1t was established in 1884,
and it has been uniformly successful from
have their choice Of going to either Of
the above named places.
THE AMERICAN having these "scholar-
ships" at its disposal, offers them to the
three most popular young persons OF Els
worth; these three to be determined by
popular vote.
This is voting contest; the prizes are
three scholarships; who shall have these
is to be determined by the votes of
friends. Below are printed two ballots.
The first ballot cut out of this paper and
sent to this office with the name of a
candidate on it will count one.
When one OF the second ballots, accom-
panied by $50 and the name OF a new
subscriber, is received it will count thirty.
The contest will close with the last
mail received onsSaturday, Sept. 2i, and
the young person. in the city of Ellsworth
receiving he largest number of votes will
be entitled to six months tuition in the
Shaw business colleges the person receiv-
ing the second largest number, to three
months tuition in the stenographic
course, and the person receiving the third
largest number to three months tuition
in the regular course.
Following are the ballots:

Contestants must not expect these
plums to drop right into their laps; work
is necessary, and work will win. Interest
your friends for you; get those of them
who do not take THE AMERICAN to sub
scribe for it; they will get their moneys
worth, and will do you good turn at t he
same time. If they are already subscrib-
ers, get them to send it to an absent rela-
tive or friend.
1t will not be found difficult to secure
subscriptions to THE AMERICAN. 1t is
admittedly far and away the best paper
printed in the county in fact, it is the
only county paper. Don't contine your
canvassing to Ellsworth; canvass any
where you happen to be.
If you want any "points" on canvass
ing, call at the office and get them; you
can have all the sample copies you
want.
Here is chance, free for all. Any
young person who wishes to attend a
business college can save the tuition fee
by putting in little time and work
this summer.
One young man has already begun.
The real contest" will not begin until
more than one starts in.

CLICKED" ALBERT EDWARD.
"A Youth Whose Treatment of Prince
of Wales Made Him Famous

VI w hleS maze HIN Famous.
During her majesty's residence at Os-
borne, about forty-five years ago, her
children were accustomed to ram BILE along
the seashore. Now, it so happened on one
occasion that the young Prince of Wales
met boy who had been gathering sea
shells. The young prince presuming
upon his high position, thought himself
privileged to do what he pleased with
impunlty, SO without any notice upset
the basket of shells. The poor lad was
very indignant, and said:
You do that again and I'll lick you"
PUT the shells back into the basket
and you will see if | DON'T" said the
prince.
The shells were returned to the basket
NOW touch them again If you dare"
said the boy; whereupon the prince again
upset the basket and shells. The boy then
pitched into him and gave him such
licking that few princes ever had. His
lip was cut open, his nose knocked con-
slderably out OF its perpendicular, and
his eyes were of a color which mig hit have
well become the champion OF prize ring.
His distgured face could not long be
concealeu from MS royal mother. She in
CURED the cause. The prince was silent,
but at last confessed the truth. The poor
boy was ordered before the queen. Was
asked to tell the story. He did so in a
very straightforward manner. At its
conclusion, turning to her child, the
queen said:
"You have been rightly served, sir Had
you not been punished sufficiently al
ready, should have punished you my
self When YOU commit like offence I
trust you will always receive similar
punishment"
She commanded the parents OF the poor
boy to her presence the following morn
ing. They came, and the result OF the in
terview was that her majesty told them
she had made arrangements for educating
and providing for their son, and she
hoped he would make good use Of the ad-
vantages which would be placed within
his reach

If we assume now the accuracy of last
weeks thought as to the possibility Of
administering by justice instead of by
force, it shall be further shown that the
great powers from variety of causes are
little likely to NEEDLE with US. Thus will
it be possible for us, with safety, after
present hostilities have ceased to return to
our skeleton army, and simply sustain our
navy in its former condition of extraor-
binary efficiency. Add to this consider
able reformation of militia methods so
that in future the time of need will not be
such time of confusion; also formation
for local purposes of a few regiments of
native constabulary; and we shall have
demonstrated to the world just what is
the true greatness OF a great nation whose
ideals are moral instead OF physical, and
whose wars are on moral issues, if any.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1898-08-10

This is not fippant disposal Of great
question. We have progressed beyond
the time when nations waltz into war to
tunes played by royal tiddlers. There is
no great nation so insane as to seize an
outlying piece Of territory from another
nation, unless confident OF being able to
hold it. AS figures will demonstrate, if
my readers will take the time for indie
pendent investigation, no great nation on
the face Of the earth will attempt to steal
from one so strong in the potentials of
war as we, and it is therefore only childish
and unretlective dread that will impel US
to depart from our old policy Of an ex-
ceedingly moderate army and navy.

As to all. Anxiously regarding from
tiers, and with wound still running after
twenty-seven years, France could not join
with Germany against US, but must of
necessity oppose her. Germany might
join with Russia, but would place France
and England with us. So envious, how
ever, are they all of England, that an at
tack upon us by her would give us more
allies than we could manage.

maintaining ON the earth the hard gained
rights Of the individual man, freedom OF
speech and thought and action, and a
common heritage of law and government.
She is never likely therefore to drift into
a fight with us; but II our eyes are open
to international light, more than likely to
come into closer relations with us for the
sake OF those things that are most hope
ful and most progressive in the worlds
life. As to our new colonial possessions,
she welcomes, indeed for reasons of state,

administrations the world around.

PRESENT-DAY THOUGHTS.
copyrighted by Dave & Tabor.l
BY q. GRosvENoR DAVE.

In doing further combat with the pres
ent earnest demands for permanent and
decided increase of both army and navy,
il is necessary to consider the probability
of foreign interference in relation to the
new islands and archipelagos that may
be ours. AS present hostilities will not
last long, it is well for us to fortify our
minds in advance regarding the matter,
since every possible and impossible and
retrogressive argument will be brought
forth in order to impel us into enormous
expenditures for arms and ships and men.
In the first place we can safely dismiss
from the discussion all fears of attack by
any one of the minor powers OF the world.
In a manner free from boasting, we can
properly say that no such power is court
ing humiliation, nor are the conditions
that have brought us into conflict with
seventh rate power ever likely to be re-
peated. Therefore the only remaining
powers that are worthy Of consideration
in Europe are England, France, Germany
and Russia, and in Asia Japan, and that
not for twenty-five years at least. Those
then that demand from our puissant ma
ton return to the weakness of force,
must be relentlessly narrowed down to the
real limits of danger-viz., that none
but great powers will dare any filching
from us; and that the fear of filching is
the only excuse for the proposed increase;
for our original territory remains as ocean
bulwarked as ever.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1898-08-10

As to Germany. At the very outset,
taking this nations own fighting eff
cheney, which, with first and second re-
serves, amounts to per cent. of the whole
population, or 100000 in all, there is no
reason to suppose that our own nation
would fail to produce similar percentage,
il need be, or 100000 in all. Germany,
too, would be 5000 miles from base in
attacking us here, and many more thous-
ands from a good base il attacking our
interests in the Pacific Hot headed though
her emperor may be, and anxious to whet
the sword Of a real living, divine-r right
war lord, modicum Of good sense will
restrain him from attempting any save
tariff-reprisals against a nation that ex-
GELS him in all that makes for an enduring
fight, though behind him in instantan-
eous readiness.

AS to France. Her debt per capita is
within one tenth of one per cent. of that
of Russias her total agricultural produce
tions are one-third less than ours, her
coal fields are triHing, and her possible
high-limit army on the 9 per cent.
basis of Germany, 5000, 900 less than ours.
But most notable of all her draw backs,
which in the main as to distance, etc, re-
semble those of Germany, is that she is
lacking in any clearly defined, well-sus-
tanned, national policy, such as character
ises Russia, Germany and England. She
is the erratic, impulsive comet of Euro
pean politics, and is we'll preoccupied in
lodging here, there and yon the zones of
travel of the other great constitutions
She would have everything to lose ulti-
mately and nothing to gain by attempt
ing an assault upon us even at our weak
est outpost.

of the past week. as 1t Is the desire OF
contestants to get through with the tour
rament as soon as possible. Last night
three series were contested. In the first
Miller and Pope of the Castle Point Cy-
GERS parted with the McCarthys. and
although, d good beginning was made the
ending was a poor one for the wheelmen,
their Opponents beating them by a margin
of las pins in the, third game. The second
series was a repetition of the first, Miller
and Pope opening up with a fine exhibit
ton, but failed to hold the pace, Bou-
LANCER and Russell beating them in the
next two. The McCarthys met with a
reverse in the third games T. were
beaten in the second series by a margin
of ) pins. The score:-
