Openings for Young Men.

There are going to he some fine
business openings in Ponce and San
Juan, Puerto Rico, U. S. A The
young men of this country have COM
planned for years that they had a poor
show in this land, unless they had
some capital to start with, and that in
amounts not too limited. They might
have brains and energy. but even these,
when backed by sterling worth. were
not always fully appreciated by grasp
ing employers. There may have been
some truth in the story, and it may be
more serious than appears on the sur
face
Now, however. there are new fields
for the young man with energy, hon.
esty push and brains, and that is why
we call attention to the islands SION to
be full part and parcel of this country.
They will be great winter resorts
within year or two. Next winter
even there will be lines of steamers to
and from these islands. They will
carry many passengers going for health,
pleasure and business. To accemmo-
date these visitors in an American way
offers good chance They will want
the best food, prepared in the Amer.
lean style, and they may want an
American hotel run in the American
way They will spend money for
trinkets and keepsakes of the island
So ne of the men will want American
drinks prepared by an American blen-
der who knows his business. ice
cream and ice cream soda will take
well, and American bath rooms will be
wanted by the visitors
In addition to the visitors there5will
be large garrisons of American soldiers
and their officers stationed there.
They will have to be catered to.
and they are good spenders of Amer
lean money. There will be railroads
and common roads TO build, and people
will want to be transported over them.
In short, the young man who gets in,
and gets in on the ground floor on
these new possessions, will have no
reason to complain of harI times. -Ex.

The Cost of the War.


The New York Sun figures that the
cost of the present war with Spain will
aggregate not less than S943, OOO,O OO
This estimate includes not only current
expenses, but interest on the war debt
contracted, pensions, losses of produc-
tive labor, war claims and other items.
With respect to current expenses
which cover merely the sums appro-
priated, or TO be appropriated, 10y the
federal government in prosecuting the
war to its close, the New York Sun
calculates that at least 100000,
will be spent before hostilities are o, er.
In arriving at this amount, our con-
temporary is guided by the records of
sums appropriated by the federal gov
ernment during the late civil war and
also 10y the fact that operations in the
present war are relatively much more
burdens 9me upon the treasury than
were operations i'll the late civil war
or in any former war. Up to the pre-
sent time it finds that the average
monthly expenses incurred in the pre-
sent war have been SO per cent heavier
than the average monthly expenses
incurred in the late civil war from
1851 to 1865; and when everything is
taken into account OH the score of cur
rent expenses, it contends that $780,
100000 is more apt to fall short of
than to exceed the actual figures.
Under the head of state expendi-
lures the New York newspaper figures
that not less than Sl5,00O,000 will
cover the cost which the present war
will entail in the aggregate upon state
treasures. Mention Is made OF the
fact that New York alone has appro-
priated 81, 100000.
Next, under the head of private
contributions, the New York news
paper estimates that not less than an
other Sl5, 200, 900 " ill be paid out be-
fore the record of the present war is
complete. This amount includes the
subscriptions which have been raised
in the way of relief funds and the like.
With respect to war claims which ag-
grieved parties have filed for damages
and which they will file hereafter, the
New York newspaper estimates that
fully S2O,OOO,OOO will eventually be
paid out in this manner.
Another cost which the New York
newspaper considers grows out of the
losses of productive labor. This IS
estimated at SlOO,OOO,OOO Interest
on the war debt, which will probably
remain for some time and which will
probably be incre used to meet current
expenses, is fixed at $90.O0O,OoO.
Pensions are estimated at $500, 000,0
and finally the value of the Maine, is
put down at 100000.
On account of this immense finan-
cial burden, to say nothing of the lives
lost in the present war, the New York
sun contends that the United States
government should never consent to
the REIMBURSEMENT OF the Philippines
nor of any other territory wrested
from Spain.

EDITOR HEARST is WARM.
He Comes out In a Few caustIc
Observations on the Recent
Election.

NEW York. Nov. 19.-W r, Hearst,
proprietor of the New York Journal
and the San Francisco Examiner, pub
fishes in the Journal a signed article,
explaining why the Democratic party
met with reverses at the recent election.
Among other things Mr.. Hearst says:
alt is both right and reasonable that
the administration which. despite its
mistakes, carried this glorious war TO a
successful conclusion, should receive a
vote of confidence. 1t is both right and
reasonable that the policy of expansion,
ever the policy of the American people
since Jefferson annexed the Louisianas,
should receive the approval of the
American voters, Republican and Dem
ocratic.
1.-THE Democratic national leaders
have been narrow and stupid beyond
belief, and the Journal and Examiner
have warned them time and again Of
the inevitable results of their stupidity.
The Democratic press and Democrats
in congress urged and brought on the
war, but the Democratic leaders, under
the control of Bailey, influenced by
petty jealousy, forced the Democratic
party into an attitude of opposition to
the very war they had brought on
forced 1t further into an attitude OF
opposition to the Democratic policy oi
expansion, to the very principles of JEFF
ferson, the father of American De
mocracy. :
"The suicidal attitude Of the Demo,
cratic leaders began with opposition tc
the annexation OF Hawaii. The lead
ers proposed driving Democratic con
gress into caucus to oppose annexation
The Journal sent its representative
editors to Washington, fought this eau
Gus, broke it w, and prevented the
Democracy from making formal and
conspicuous ass of itself on that occa
sion. But the narrowness of the lead
ers continued. and developed tendency
to oppose every Republican act, even
though it embodied Democratic prin.

JUST A HINT.

Many who write for newspapers little
think of the lot OF the EDITOR and
printer, who spend hours of toll. over
their false grammar, bad autobiography
and poor punctuation. How often are
the arguments of lawyers, in high
repute as scholars. given to the printers
in their own handwriting, many words,
and especially technical and foreign
terms, abbreviated, words misspelled
and few or no points, and those few, Ii
any, entirely out of place. The SER
mons. of eminent divines are frequentIy
sent to the press without points or cap
itals to designate the division of SEN
tences- es-sermons which. If published
with the imperfections of the manu-
script, would disgrace the printers
devil If he were the author. Suppose
they had been SO printed? The printer
would have been treated with contempt
as an illiterate blockhead-as fellow
better suited to be wood sawyer than
printer. Nobody wonld have believed
that such gross and palpable faults were
owing to the carelessness of the author.
And no one but the practical printer
knows how many hours compositor,
and, after him proof-reader. is COM
PEELED to spend in reducing to reada-
BILE condition manuscript that the writ
ers themselves would be puzzled to read.
