1t has often been reported that
Coy. Lee was a man Of consider
siderable means, having a store,
hogs, cattle, ETC., aside from his
large real estate holdings. But
from an item IN the Vermiilion
Republican it is learned that his
personal tax for 1897 amounts to
anly $3.50, and that of his part
ner, c. E. Prentis, to only SS.76,
Can these men really be SO re-
duced IN circumstances, fit was
claimed that Lee had been a
successful business man and
therefore would make a good
business governor or do they be-
long to that class OF rich men
who avoid paying their share Of
the taxes, of which ex-President
Harrison spoke in his recent
address in Chicago. Such acts
as these assist the ''r:ch in grow

have been offered for sale, by
parties in Europe, that we would
not nave. for gifts. The greater
portion of the money appropri-
ated by congress will be spent at
home, putting the available ves-
|sels in fighting trim and
Strengthening our coast and
harbor defenses, which are al
ready probably strong enough to
successfully resist anything that
Spain can send against them. AS
the war will either be fought al
most entirely on Spanish ground,
only those who enter it are likely
to see any of its hardships, and
it is likely to be very short. Spain
has neither the money nor the
men to make long fight, even if
we were disposed to allow her to
do SO, which we are not.
President Gompers of the
American Federation of labor,
and Secretary Ross of the Nation
al Mule Spinners' Association,
appeared before the house judici-
ary committee, this week, in
advocacy of the proposed amend
ment to the constitution, giving
congress the authority to fix the
hours of labor in the entire
country. They called especial
attention to the long hours re-
quired of southern mill workers
and compared, them with the
shorter working day in New
England mills, and declared the
longer hours to be unfair and
detrimental to labor.
The house committee on inter-
state and foreign commerce has
favorably reported a bill pro-
viding for the laying of cable
from San Francisco to Japan, via
Hawaii, and granting a govern
ment annuity of $4,000 for
twenty years, III consideration of
which all the u. S. government
messages are to be transmitted
free and the government to have
control Of the cable in case of
war or other emergency.
What must surprise the Span
lards, as well as the citizens of
other countries, about the placing
of fifty millions of dollars in the
hands of the president by congress
is that it could be done without
selling bond or in the slightest
manner mountaineering the u.
S. government. 1t was merely
taken out of the surplus cash that
Uncle Sam had on hand. What
will add to the surprise of the
Spaniards is the knowledge that
Uncle Sam can, if necessary,
plank down another fifty million
of dollars without an issue Of
bonds, while Spain has failed to
negotiate loan upon any terms,
although it has been upon its
knees to every banker in Europe
who commands money enough to
handle a loan. Many shrewd
men believe that the appropr1a-
tion Of this money, under the cir
cumstances, will do more to
convince the Spanish people of
the inability of their government
to cope with the United States
than anything, that could possibly
haye been done.

Jerry Simpson endorsed"

Jerry Simpsons course in congress has
been one OF obstruction, and Vet he is
GO amended by the Pop convention at
Hutchinson. Simpson opposed ali meas
nres looking towards the liberation of
Cuba, and yet the Pop convention last
week had the supreme gall to pass the
following resolution:
''We point with pride to the brilliant
course of our congressman, Jerry Simp-
son. and congratulate him on the fact
that his gallant fight in behalf of the
struggling Cubans, though opposed by
the Mark Hanna syndicate, is soon to be
crowned With success, whereby the stars
and stripes will soon float over Cuba, as
they do now over Manila.''
The News says the resolution was in
tro iuced by the anti-SimpsOns as bit of
sarcasm. and says:
''Another funny part of this resolution
was that after it was introduced the
friends of Mr.. Simpson who SAW the
ridiculous side of it were unable to OBJ
ject. for if they did they would be in the
hole that anti Simpson men had dug for
the,M.
''I'be first time the flight for the strug-
Cling Cubans" came up was when con-
gress unanimously voted $4,000, 600 for
the national defense. When that vote
was taken Mr.. Simpson was iu Kansas at
tending to his political fences. Next was
the resolution directing the president to
intervene with the army and navy in be-
half of the struggling Cubans, and Mr..
Simpson was one of the nineteen who
voted no. The third test was the bill to
raiee revenue to carry on the war. and
again Mr.. Simpson ''gallantly'' voted no.
land so it wac that the anti-Simpson
Fopuiists put the submarine mine in the
resolutions. and now they are laughing
at the Simpson men who don't know
whether to get mad or nOt.''

A Lucid Explanation.

Dave Leahy's explanation: If a
battle is fought today in the Philip
pine islands it was fought yesterday
according to the Kansas schedule OF
time, or tomorrow according to the
cable schedule. In other words, if
a man is travelling from Topeka to
Dodge City, news comes up behind
him a day ahead that a battle was
fought tomorrow in the Philippine
territory. When the 1S0th degree is
crossed what is Sunday in the Phil
ippines is Saturday in Kansas.
Yesterday in the Philippines was day
before yesterday in Kansas. and to
morrow in Kansas will be day after
tomorrow in the Philippines.
To make the thing entirely clear.
If at the hour of 10 o'clock tonight,
a sailor at Havana and q sailor ut
Manila were killed at the same sec
ond of time the Havana man would
be dead the day before the Manila
man.
