MONROE. Mrs. Washington Patterson,
who was reported sick last week, remains
about the same. Rev. Frank S. Doliff de-
livered the sermon for the Odd Fellows Oh
the occasion of their anniversary May st
in very pleasing and instructive man
ner. He was raised here and was ALWAYS an
exemplary young man of high morals.
Now that he has arrived to mature years he
makes man the community looks up to
with reverence and respect. The church was
decorated with flowers, each member of the
order wore flowers, and the singing was
rendered in a fine manner by our best sing
ers.. Mrs. F. L. Palmer who has been verv
sick of late, is better. .... Severe colds
are raging here. Many seem to have la
grippe, but a serious cough attends it. :. Mr..
Leander Staples has gone to Boston selling
his patent halters. We expect to have
regular preaching here this year, of which
notice will be given later. We have had a
very cold April and planting will be late.
Mrs. Mason of Winterport was at the Forest

Of the President for the assertion that il

1t is said that the Foreign Relations
Committees are aware of this purpose Of

his position on this proposition TO gentle

The times., 1898-04-15

The boek-keepers who stand in the
counting rooms Of the mills Of the gods
tell their friends that there is going to
be action today; that there is to be an
American grist which will BE- ground be
tween the upper and the neither mill
stones of humanity and vengeance for
the Maine, and that the demonstration
is to occur in the Senate.
That is pleasant news for the nation,
and every senator who has the common
sense to keep silent will be accorded an
ovation at the first convenient season.
In earlier days. when there used to be
domestic politics to talk about, The
Times was a silver paper and would
have scorned to say that speech or any
other ancient thing could have been
golden That forgotten time is not re-
membered. Nothing is remembered. as
far as this journal is considered, but
the cry OF America for vengeance.
Since Spanish treachery blew up the
Maine, we have known no party but
that of American patriotism; We have
sung no songs but Hail Columbia and
the Star Spangled Banner!
Today it is believed that the Senate
viii get through talking and adopt the
manly resolutions presented by the
Committee on Foreign Relations. That
is a glorious prospect, because the reso-
lutions and the report accompanying
them have filled the country with joy,
and made every member of the COM
mittee responsible for them a national
favorite.
But we want the resolutions and
not rhetoric. We deplore the idea that
senator's who support them should
waste time and the pages Of the Con-
gressional Record, not to speak of the
galleries, in useless eloquence. The
country knows that there is eloquence
to burn in the Senate. Let it be kept
for use in lauding the heroes who may
fall, and gladly fall, for their country's
honor and glory. Let us have deed:
and not talk at this juncture.
What the American people demand
now is not words, but action. The
votes of senators will be carefully
scanned by seventy-five million Ameri
can citizens: their utterances are not
and will not now be regarded as peril
nent. Senator's who understand the tenn
per Of the country viii keep silent anc
act. It is not time for forensic display

Diplomacy.

It is beginning to dawn on the mass
Of the American people that UP to the
present stage Of this Spanish-Ameri-
can situation this large and impressive
country of ours has been hoodwinked,
tricked, deceived and managed by the
experienced diplomatists on the other
side of the water. OF course it is gall
ing and exasperating to the people of
any considerable amount Of patriot
ism to be told that an American
can be surpassed by native Of any
other country on earth, but it ought to
be understood now and permanently.
that that result is almost certain to
be reached when country lawyers are
placed in charge Of International fela-
tions involving the interests Of seventy
five millions Of people
No one can have anything to say
against Secretary Sherman. He uses
the State Department as a convenient
and spacious Office in which 70 manage
the Washington real estate accumu-
lated by patient and painstaklng indus
try since the days Of the crime OF 'T2
He has not been considered or con-
suited in this crisis. The affairs of the
State Department have been placed IN
the hands of the Assistant Secretary,
and upon that gentleman the sudden
ness with which he was lifted from
Canton and set down in a chair Of
state seems to have had an immense
and bewildering effect. Some people
with long memories can remember sim
liar effects which followed similar
causes in the innocent but disciplinary
DAYS Of childhood. The transition in
the case Of Judge Day has been sud
den, and recent complications have
made il embarrassing. In the ordinary
affairs Of routine department life his
unpreparedness might not so much
have mattered, for a clerk, If no does
not know, can always ask somebody,
bus in diplomatic transactions it is con-
sIdered undignified 10 ask the other
gentleman in the controversy what is
the proper thing to do. Hence the po-
sition in which this country is placed
before the world.

COFFEE SCARS UPWARD.
Strong Advance Caused by the An
ticipated War Duty.

jcipated War Duty.
New York, April 14-Coffee futures shot
upward 10 to 35 points today, owing to
war rumors from Washington, and some
of the sports who have been pooh-pooh-
ing a war, got under cover without loss of
time, as it is feared that in case of war
the Government would impose a duty OF
or cents a pound. 1t is even feared
that not only imports but existing stocks
in the seaboard markets would be obliged
to pay the tax.
Coffee brokers are much aroused over
this question. The stock of coffee on
hand or afoat for this country amounts
to nearly 1,3G0,OOO bags, and a duty of 4
cents on this large quantity would net
very pretty penny to the Government.
Arbuckle Brothers who, il is understood,
are carrying heavy stock of coffee are
hotly opposed to a duty, while the Wool
son Spice Company, otherwise the Sugar
Trust people, favor it. Be this-as it may
the fear of a duty caused a sharp ad-
vance today and part of the rise was
held at the close in spite Of some disap-
pointment at the slow progress at Wash
ington in carrying through war measures.
1t was reported that Arbuckle Brothers
had raised the price of package coffee
another half cent. This would put their
prices one cent a pound above those of
the Woolson Company, which has hither-
to refused to follow the higher prices
made by their opponents.
Meantime there is unusual activity in
the coffee trade throughout the country
in the expectation of a war with Spain
and Of a substantial duty. This fact is
brought out very strikingly by the deliv-
cries from warehouses to consumers, and
especially at New York.

A BOLD ROBBERY.
Woman Cashier Held Up by n Mask
ed Mnn

New York, April IA remarkable story
Of robbery was told to the police late
last night by Mrs Yeury, cashier in Hig-
gins & Settlers china store, on West
Twenty Street. The woman says
she was held up by man with a black
mask while leaving her office to carry a
portion of the days receipts upstairs to
the bookkeeper. She was knocked down
by the man, she says and the cash box,
containing 500 and number of checks,
was stolen from her.
Mrs. Yeury's story was told in a
straightforward manner, and her employ
ers have not the slightest doubt that ii
is true.

If the situation did not have Larry"
Godkin it would be without humor. By
and by the people of New York will
get mad. and then it will be without
Larry" Godkin. But, for the present,
let US consider him as alive. He
thinks that the National Guard cannot
hope to cope with the Spaniards. What
win his club friends who belong to it
think of this? A lot of Cubans. armed
originally with little else but their
machetes, have defeated two hundred
thousand soldiers of Spain. Does Larry
Godlin fancy that American soldiers
viii do less? But then Larry does not
know anything about American soldiers,
or anything else American. He is Tory
and should be deported.

While we wait, the Spanish Carlists
and socialists are busy. 1t was said
yesterday that another riot had broken
out in Madrid. The Weylerites and
Carlists are ready to stand by the Sagas-
ta government for war against the hated
Yankees; but if that war is not declared
they are on the point of declaring one
against Queen Christina.

The President prefers the House res
olution to that of the Senate" OF
course; just as he would prefer a peace
resolution to either, or a law authorizing
him to help the Sraniards drive the
Cubans out of Cuba, to all three.
The times., 1898-04-15

The Administration press of Washington
believes that Mr.. Mckinley will not pro-
ceed to attack Spain until the latter has
been given time to fortify and gather
the torpedo fleet now rushing to our
shores. The proper thing to do will be to
burn much time as possible and allow
Spain an opportunity to get over here
and wreck an American ship or two.
That might depress the Jingoes and help
the glorious cause along. The cause is
Spanish bonds.
The times., 1898-04-15

We have a good and pious man in
the White House. He condemns war
and would have peace. In the present
case we must remember that war"
would almost destroy his friends who
are interested in the Spanish bond deal,
while peace with Spanish sovereignty,
would net them a profit of one or two
hundred million dollars. On these ac-
counts we must hope for peace.
