President McKinley's recent visit to
than one. Least important to the ma
ton is the fact hat 10 looking the
ground over with a view to his future
aspirations, the president discovered a
very uncongenial field in Massachusetts,
whose people have not forgotten the
treatment their soldiers received 10
Cuba and on the way home. 1t was
necessary some time, IN some way. for
Mr.. Mckinley to court the favor of
massachusetts people if he expects any
thing political from that quarter in the
future. He honored them with a presi-
dental visit and out Of respect TO his
Office they gave him a loyal and patriotic
reception. But how was it with Alger?
Jeered and hooted on every side and in
suited with 'cheers for Gen Miles, The
common people and the common soldiers
have found evidence enough to convince
them that Gen. Miles has taken the right
position on the embalmed beef question.
But the most notable part OF the pro-
gram at Boston was the presidents
speech. 1t is his first public utterance
since the Omaha tour and the tour of the
southern states when he was working
up imperial sentiment. Now tLat he
has gotten the full and free rein he
asked for, by the treaty and the ratifica-
ton Of the treaty, it has been a matter
Of curiosity to the people of the country
to know how far Nj. Mckinley intended
TO go in his foreign policy. 1t is but
justice TO cay that his words on that
point are very ~reassuring, more in &C.
cordance with the general sentiment of
the .Amerlcon people we believe than at
any time since the opening Of negoti.
atoms with Spain at the beginning of
the war. He asserts only that the
exigencies Of wal have forced the
Philippine islands INTO our possession,
he is determined to assert sovereignty
over them at any and all cost and then
congress can do with them what it
pleases. He disclaims al imperial de-.
signs, admits that such Is alien to the
American mind, and that the funda-
mental principles Of this government
government by consent OF the governed
Undergo no change. These are volu-
aole and significant concessions of the
president and if they had been manfully
made before the ratification of the
treaty, would have much facilitated an
easy and amicable agreement on the
ultimate purpose Of a ratification of that
document. But "all is we'll that ends
well' and the country will breathe
free for the chief executives state
ment of his purpose. Let tho Filipinos
be licked into subsection as quickly as
possible now that we have taken that
course to paoify them, and in a few years,
perhaps. we a greatly reduce the
number of our soldiers to be kept in
that deadly region.

WASIIINGTGN. Feb ls.-The mer-
chants of Havana nave made consider.
able complaint of late that the market
was being Gemoralized by purchases by
the military authorities, certain mer-
chants giving rebates in hope that they
would get back the amount OF duty on
the goods sold the government. Secre-
tary Meiklejohn took steps TO put an
end to this discrimination and directed
that hereafter whenever it became
necessary for the commissary depart
ment to purchase supplies in Cuba. to
augment the supplies sent from this
country, the market price shall be paid,
without deduction of duty. This places
the government on the same basis as
private buyers and prevents any en-
tanglement over duties.

Making of Mirrors.

The mirror making industry in the
United States employs more than g.
900 persons. and the product is valued
at about $4,000, 900 a year. The first
step in the manufacture is the adjust
ment of a smooth stone table. Around
this table. which can be eanted to one
side by means OF screw set beneath
il. is a groove. in which mercury may
flow from one corner into bowls. The
table is made perfectly level, then tin
foil is carefully laid over it, covering
a greater space than the glass to be
coated. The metal is then poured upon
the foil till il is nearly quarter of
an inch deep. being prevented from
flowing of by strips OF glass placed
along three sides of the foil. From
the open side is slid on the plate OF
glass. whose advancing edge is kept
in the mercury, so that no air. floating
oxide OF the metal or other impurities
can work in between the glass and the
clean surface of the mercury. When its
desired position has been reached 1t is
held until one edge of the mercury has
run of. 1t is left for several hours,
and then placed upon frame. the
back" by this time being covered with
the amalgam which adheres to it. AT
ter the amalgam becomes hard the
plate is ready for use. Mirror making
is generally thought to be dangerous
on account of the injury to the health
Of the operators from the fumes of the
quicksilver, but the figures collated by

to sustain this belief
