RUSSIA'S TRANS-SIBERIAN RAILWAY.

The roadbed of Eussia's trans-Siberian
railway is being prepared by the use Of
American steam shovels and other grad
ing machinery; the ties come in large
part from Oregon; the steel rails are
from Pennsylvania's mills, the cars are
constructed under American supervision,
and the locomotives are of American
build. In every respect save location it
is to be an American railway, G,CO0 miles
long. If the leaven of American poll l.
cal ideas could be as freely scat cred in
Russia as have been the material pro-
ducts of American brains, perhaps we
might some day see as beneficial a revo-

WE ARE GOING TO KEEP THEM.

Admiral Dewey sent cold chill down
the backs of the American hackers of
Aguinaldo by remarklng, even in the
sacred precincts of Boston, which is
Professor Atkinson's postof1ice address
and Mr.. Williams keepsake, that "We
are going to keep the Philippines" OBJ
serve that Admiral Dewey says not that
we are gong merely to restore order to
the Philippines, but that we are going
to restore civilization to the Philippines;
that is, we are going to keep them, just
as we keep Louisiana, New Mexico,
Alaska and Hawaii. Thus, the Admiral
sits down hard on the anti-imperialistic
Democracy as we'll as On the lmperialistic
Aguinaldo. And incidentally such Dem.
ocratic organs as have been trying to get
Dewey TO run as Democratic candi-
date for president also feel cold chill
running down their backs.
