While we have not much time or
thought to devote to affairs outside of
our own country in days like these, it
is impossible not to give at least pass
ing noHce To matters in France.
where the conditions are even more
Revolutionary than they may be in
America within another month. The
government of President Faure faces
situation even more menacing to its
existence than does that of President
Mckinley The developments of the
lola trial have convinced the ministry
that the unfortunate Dreyfus was made
scapeaoat for the crime OF another.
and, if public opinion would allow it,
the case would be reopened. But, to
take that course would be to invite a
military revolution. Moreover, it is
now known in Paris that, among the
secret papers connected with the case.
there is an autograph letter from En-
peror Wilhelm referring to the spy sys-
tenn maintained by Germany among the
officers of the French army. If that
letter were 10 be made public, or its
existence. even. acknowledged officially.
there is not a shadow of doubt that the
Kaiser would regard the matter as a
cause of war. and proceed to hostilit:es
without more ado. That he has a chip
on his shoulder which he longs to have
France knock off is now a matter of
common notoriety. That he is likely TO
dine too freely some evening and con-
slider that il has been knocked off, on
general principles. is a nightmare TO
French statesmen who know him, and
also know the slight reliance which can
be placed upon the army of France,
filled as Ii is with incompetents and
honeycombed with fraud and degenera-
ton as it is more than suspected to be.
The evening times. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1895-1902, 1898-02-17

Nothing viii be done about it. The
whole matter viii be tangled up i'm a
maze of investigation, in which we may
be sure that our Spanish friends will
heartily join. The fact that the massa-
ere was planned and talked about in
Havana weeks ego will not have the
slightest effect. The Administration is
bent upon it's own political destruction.
Whether Mr.. Hanna, who is the ulti-
mate authority, sees the precipice
toward which he is drawing his 'ad-
vance agent or not is unimportant.
He and his associates i'm the national
deal are determined to support the
cause of their coparceners. II they can
do il successfully and still maintain
their power, well and good. If they fail
politically, they mean to be in a posi-
ton to retire with laurels only to be
expressed in six or seven monetary fig
uIes.
The evening times. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1895-1902, 1898-02-17

We can answer that question right
off the reel" The Administration will
do nothing about it. if affirmative ac-
ton can be avoided. Barring the loss
of life involved in the Spanish naval
victory. the incident is not at all un-
pleasant to the people who own our au-
thOrities. 1t eliminates one great naval
factor from the equation. 1t places the
American sea power nearer to parity
with that of Spain. Therefore. il re-
moves so much danger from a situation
which might be created if the Ameri-
can people were to turn loose and over
throw the prO-Spanish policy of their
Government. From the point OF view
of the Spanish bondholders and the An
glo-Cuban sugar syndicate, the destruc-
tion OF the Maine must be regarded as
providential 1t furnishes a powerful
argument for peace on our part. But
we are afraid that is not yet a con-
elusive one. We still have battleships
70 blow up. Our best business inter
ests" should see TO il that some more of
them are destroyed. Then the policy
Of the Administration viii be complete
ly INDICATED.
The evening times. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1895-1902, 1898-02-17

The panic in which Mr.. Mckinley
was. yesterday, reported to be
over his foreign relations did not keep
his Administration from scoring one
of the greatest triumphs over the legis-
lative branch of the Government in the
history of this or any other nation.
The Kansas Pacific Railway was
knocked down to the syndicate at the
sale in Topeka, Kansas. The "reor-
SANITATION committee" wiped out the
national claim against the property for
the face of the bonds-namely, S.,
800, 600 Everybody in the country
knows that this was tantamount to.a
free gift of S7,0o0.o 900 to the syndicate
and its silent partners who, upon in
Nestigation. may be found to be people
of high official station. 1t is doubtful
il there ever was quite as fragrant ana
barefaced a deal as this. But We have
not the least idea that there would be
any use in making row about 1t. The
same influences that made it possible
are potent enough TO suppress any ev-
idence which would tend to connect it
with official corruption. Even IL such
evidence were Forthcoming, the present
subjugated condition of the House OF
Representatives would render il i'm
possible for any action to originate in
that dead and decomposed body. All
that can be done now will be to let the
American people thoroughly Under
stand how they have been buncoed and
by whom. The consequences to the
criminals will be only political; but
that. even. is something to be desired.
The Kansas Pacific scandal, among
other things. will. of necessity. be re-
viewed at the polls next November

As a prominent Administration Con-
gresham said to reporter yester-
day: we must make this thing appear
10 have been an accident. or all control
of the Administration over the Republi-
cans i'm the House would be at an end"
Accordingly, we observe that there was
a musicale" at the White House. and
that Mr.. Mckinley was much affected
by the tears Of Senior Dupuy de LONE,
who hoped to God that the news was
not true, and who acclaimed his love
for America just before leaving our
shores. BY the way, it was extremely
fortunate for the eX-envoy that Ameri-
cans are not like his people. The sus-
picion that his haste in getting away
from the country was dictated by
knowledge that the Maine would be
blown up, is more than mere Pigment
of imagination. If such a thing had
beef intended, it is highly probable
that he knew about it. The accident
al theory is exploded as badly as the
Maine was. Then the question arises:
What is the Administration going to do
about it?

How much property a man will leave
when he dies depends largely upon his
health. The man who suffers from ILL
health stands little show of being a sue
cessful business man. The man who comes
to his desk in the morning with a head
ache, who suffers all day from dullness and
dTowsiness, who goes to his meals without
an appetite and losses restlessly through
the night without sleep. is not likely to
leave a competence for his widow and or
phans. Success is even more dependent
upon health than upon ability.
Pew men realize these truths. They
think that everything can be accomplished
by work, and that health is secondary
consideration. Work is useless unless il is
good work, and good work is never done
save by thoroughly healthy man. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
best of all health restorers and health pre-
servers. II makes the stomach strong and
active. 1t sends man TO his meals thor
oughly hungry every time 1t facilitates
similation perfect. II invigorates the liver
life giving elements of the food. It is the
great blood maker and flesh builder 1t
tears down inert, half dead tissues and
builds new, firm, muscular flesh II does
not build habby fat like cod liver oil ard

The East Side Fire company
wants to run a race with the West
Side Fire company for one hundred
dollars a side and take the main
street of the city for race track.
We object to this for two reasons,
Broad street is no place to run
races on and then betting gets up
bad blood among those who put up
the money. We like to see our
boys try and out do each other,
but then don't bet, keep your
money and buy something useful
with it, and if you have more than
you can spend legitlmately, empty
it out in the cause of cha rity.

When commissioner of Pensions
Eyans was seen recently in regard
to claims for pensions growing out
of the present war it was learned
that only 144 applications have been
filed, 1t is estimated that there
will be $4,000 applications filed as
the outgrowth of wounds inflicted
aud diseases contracted during the
war, At an average OF $40 per
month the pensions will be some-
thing like $l2,0OO,00O per annum.
But the commissioner says it is
difficult to make anything like an
accurate estimate.
