young Chow Was q fellow who fshed
and roamed about . good deal, and this
Il was that brought him-not into trouble
but into notoriety
One day in he rambling he found

had an entrance on each side OF it. Both
entrances we're rather crescent shaped
with the concsve sides facing each other.
The cave itself was round as moon, in.
side. Out Of these opposed cresents and
tie moon shaped cave he evolved dis-
gram that has become noted among the
Chinese. This diagram, the Great
Monad. was used to illustrate a system
Of philosophy established by Fuh Hi,
1900 years before Christ was born, and.
OF course, 1000 yesrs before Chow found
his wonderful cave.
1t is now used also as a symbol for
something elss. From the mysteries Of
an ancient Chinese philosophy it has
been dragged forth to illustrate the
modern American system of transporta-
ton. 1t has, so to speak. leaped across
a gulf Of nearly nine centuries, become
modern invention, as it were, and now
does duty as the trade mark OF the
Northern Pacific Railway Company.
This line, starting from the heart OF the
American Continent stretches westward
to the sea whose waters battle alike, the
shores of America and China.
From the other side of the great ocean
this symbol comes, not only down the
long centuries, but across the watery
waste, to meet the glstening rails and
thus to link closely together the ancient
and the modern, the heather and the
Christian, the Monaghan and the eau
casian
| This design is 4 circle IN form, the
center composed OF two eel shaped
crescents, one above the other. The
upper crescent is either red or white,
the lower one black. The original Monad
has certain mystic characters grouped
around the crescents, the new adaptation
OF it has the words Northern Pacific and
Yellowstone Park encircling the cres-
cents. In the Chinese these cresents are
known as Yang aud Yin, the male and
female principles of life. In the new

and Matter.
In China this Monad has a wonderful
potency. 1t wards off evil, disease, harm
and is hung up over doors, etc., to guard
against evil spirits. Who shall say that
| it has not also the same power in it's new
field? Why should it not. escutheoned
upon the cars of the Company's trains,
also ward off harm, prevent accident?
Why should it's potency be lessenej in
it's transplanting.
This design or trade mark is now to be
seen upon the railway company's sta
tonery, cars, printed matter and on the
windows of it's ticket offices. Its striking
eye like appearance, like the eye of the
Ancient Mariner, holds one as with
spell.
To Mr.. f. H. McHenry, Chief Engi-
neer; and Mr.. Chas. s. Fee, General
Passenger Agent of the Railway Company
is due the credit of unearthing and adapt
ing this peculiar design. which has been
copyriyhted by the company.

The Star Spangled Banner.

Postmaster Sperry has at last placed
Old Glory over the second class post
office. The ceremonies were impressive.
The genial postmaster read Il paper on
flags in general and the American flag in
particular, and at the exercises deputy
postmaster Chandler sang something
that sounded very much like THE Bar
Strangled Spanner," leaving not a dry
eye, or lip, in the patriotic assembly.

THE NEED OF MORE SHIPPING.

HOULD any new argument be needed to urge
y Congressional action in favor OF American
- shipping 1t can be found in the circumstances
OF the time. The demand for transports by the
United States for the Philippine service and by
Great Britain for service in carrying troops and
munitions OF to the Transvaal has so reduced the
available tonnage OF the merchant marine of the two
countries that there is scarcity of ships for the
quirements OF commerce, and as a consequence the
rates of ocean freights have advanced.
Recent advices the effect that the advance in
British grain rates the Atlantic since the Trans
vaal began has been six cents a bushel That
means OF course our people will receive that much
less profit from the grain they send abroad That
much OF increased tax for transportation purposes
has been placed upon the output and nearly the
whole OF it goes to European ship-owners, for they
carry upward OF 90 per OF total imports and
exports.
II such be the result of contest between Great
Britain and small inland country like the Trans
vaa, it is easy to foresee that the effect upon Our
commerce and our industries of a war between the
British and some great power would be trenen-
dously disastrous. With our ocean carrying trade in
the hands OF foreigners are exposed to risks in
every foreign war. Anything which dimnishes the
available merchant ships of those nations would be
almost as hurtfu to us as to them.
Our experience during the war with Spain showed
how important to a nation it is to have merchant
marine of sufficient extent render transportation
service to the Government when the emergencies of
war make it necessary Notwithstanding the Spanish
war was comparatively slight the United States
sorely hampered by lack OF transports. 1t would
have been a serious impediment indeed had Spain
been in condition to wage longer or more deter
mined resistance to arms.
All these recent experiences point to the con-
clusion The upbulding of an American merchant
marine is not matter of sentiment, but work
rendered imperatively necessary by the conditions
of the time. The peace OF Europe is by means
cure There is telling when may break out
1t is folly therefore, to leave our commerce exposed
to the hazard of such wars. 1t must be remembered
that the welfare of almost every one OF our indus
tries depends on commerce A rise in the rates of
ocean transportation is tax the producers of
all staple articles and all of exports. There
is but one safe course to pursue Our industries and
our commerce should be rendered independent by
the prompt upbuding of merchant marine ade-
quate to all the needs of our people.

will be accompanied by further decrease of that
feeling of friendship and gratitude which the Cuban
people now entertain toward the United States, as
well as by lack of confidence in the business future
and by continuance OF the depression in the agri-
cultural and commercial interests of the island if not
indeed by an actual increase of local disorder.
SO strong statement coming from an official OF
such rank ought to have much effect in counteracting
the ambitions and the greeds OF the men who would
like the United States to break faith in order bring
about the annexation of Cuba. Since the people de-
sire self-government and are fitted for it, and since
the only OF unrest is the fear that intend to
deprive them OF it, the best policy we pursue in
the matter is to be true to our traditions and our
principles. We entered upon the war with the
avowed purpose of making Cuba free and should do
that as promptly as possible

TIE GOLD DEMOCRATS.

Y T the time the conservative Democratic leaders
! were making such vigorous efforts last sum
mer to devise platform and find leader
for united Democracy, there was good deal OF
speculation as to what the gold standard Democrats
would do in the States where elections are to be held
this fall What course they would have pursued had
the movement toward harmony met with any success
it is OF impossible to say but it is the fol-
lowers OF Palmer and Buckner in 1896 appear to have
decided to cut loose from Democracy altogether for
time at least and to vote a straight Republican
ticket.
Mr.. James Caren of Ohio, who was chairman Of
the State committee of the sound money Democrats
during the Bryan campaign having been asked re-
Gently what he thinks the gold Democrats of that
State will do in this contest reported to have said:
Il would say that fully SO per cent of them will vote
for Judge Nash They say to us that this is State
campaign, and the money question should not be per-
mitted to cut any figure. That is possibly true but
the campaign in Ohio this year is being fought on
national issues OF which, as raised in the Demo
cratic State PLATFORM is free and unlimited coinage
of silver at the ratio of IS to I, independent OF all
the other nations of the earth and the demand for
the denomination of Bryan as the Democratic STAN
dard bearer in 1900. The one thing to be consid-
cred is the important bearing an adverse result to
the national administration this year in Ohio would
have upon the great national contest next year. with
Bryan as the Democratic candidate and free silver
the issue"
In Maryland so large proportion of the sound
money Democrats are in favor of acting with the
Republican party in the campaign that movement
has been started to organize them as an active and
effective force in the contest The gold Democrats
well understand that Democratic victory this year
would put their party organization and the State
patronage under the control of the Bryan faction 1t
would then be extremely difficult to win sound
money victory in the Presidential campaign Of next
year They are not going to take such chances and
accordingly will join hands with the Republicans for
the redemption OF the State.
Such course the part of the sound money
Democrats is the inevitable consequence of the com
pete failure OF all attempts to get rid OF the Bryante
leadership in their own party 1t is now evident the
silver men have control of the Democratic machine
and of the Democratic masses Men who understand
the importance OF sound finance and who are opposed
to ntrusting the affairs of the nation TO such ire
sponsibe men as now at the head of Democracy
can longer act with that organization even in
State issues Until Organism has been eliminated
from politics all conservative citizens must stand
together There is place for side faction The
only way to make of sound finance is to vote
for the Republican party and uphold it in every
election that comes whether national, State or
municipal.

THE SITUATION IN CUBA.

= ENERAL WILSON'S report to the War De-
I partment the situation in the provinces Of
- Matanzas and Santa Clara, in Cuba, which are
under his command affords nothing of encourage
ment to the annexation schemers. The General de-
clares the provinces are orderly and free from dis
turbances. "The Cubans, he says, have received us
everywhere and at all times, with every evidence Of
friendship and in most localities with cordially that
indicates genuine gratitude. The Cuban army has
given trouble; it maintained order until relieved
OF the responsibility Its members had generally been
disbanded and gone work before the United States
sent out its paymasters with the money allotted to
them from the treasury One newspaper at Glen
fuegos claiming to speak for the Cuban army, but
actually the mouthpiece OF few dissatisfied officers
has been at times ncendiary in its uterances but the
department is absolutely tranquil, life and property
safe and there is probably less crime and disorder
here than in any State in the Union"
Commenting upon such evidences OF discomfort as
to be found he says: The feeling OF unrest in
these two provinces is due mainly to the suspicion
that we do not intend to live up to the voluntary
pledge contained in the joint resolution of nterven-
ton. This feeling is perhaps. the increase, and
is encouraged by political agtators and newspapers
SO far as | can discover, the Cuban people in the
provinces OF this department are now as ready for
sef-government as they likely to be at any time
IN the near future. 1t is my deliberate judgment that
any other course will involve unnecessary delay and
