VERIFY THESE ARE BETTER DAYS.

THE soft days of golden summer
have drawn. to a close, and just now
we are wavering betwixt late fall
and approaching winter. The coal
box has been filled, and the heating
stove has been polished and put
back into place. The mill whistles
on the Bay are still heard at the
noon hour, but soon too, they will
cease for time to call to labor their
crews. Summer is about over, and
those are the halcyon days on Lake
Superior. For here we have an in
land sea, and the boats ply back and
forth in their traffic, and give en-
ployment to many, and the places OF
resort and rest are not few, and are
sought by great numbers who seek
enjoyment and rest. AS our nation
expands and our duties become
broader each citizen of the Ameri-
can republic feels the responsibilities
that come with our growth. But
the year has been memorable one
ia commercial history and in the in
dustrial world. In ninety-three a
panic swept the country and not
until ninety-eight did it's effects be-
GIN to dissolve. In '99 the country
is prosperous once more. Laboring
men are better paid than before in
many years, and it is no longer the
case of the man hun ting the job, but
of the job hunting the man, and not
CROUCH men to fill the places. Con-
gress will meet in a month, and it is
q foregone conclusion that any legis-
lation along the line of the currency
will be only to improve the standard
now existing The anti-eXpansion
fanatics, who are too much afraid
we may whip the PHILIPPINES into
submission, are preparing to make
trouble, but it is thought there is
q good safe majority in favor of the
administrations policy. AS we
book forward to the days that are
ahead of US it is with a feeling of
confidence that the country will con-
tinue in the steady prosperous con-
dition it is now enjoying. And as
the golden autumn slips almost i'm
perceptiably into dreary winter who
can say that we are not every day
deriving beneficial results from the
wisdow of noble administration of
our national affairs.

A BABCOCK INTERVIEW.

THE Milwaukee Journal published
an interview with Congressman
Babcock, last week, of which the
following is part:
81 think there is mistaken i'm
preston as to the policy of Presi-
dent Mckinley with reference to
the Philippines. AS | understan
his position it is that the particular
form of government to be provided
for the PHILIPPINES is to be determin-
ed by the people and not by the Of
fcers now in power. The president
ezoes not propose any particular form
OF government, as that is to be de-
1ernined by congressman the pres
emf congress, but the one to be
elected. This question is to be the
principal issue, or one of the prin-
eipal issues, and upon the result Of
the next campaign will rest the
future of the islands.
The above statement was made to
The Man With the Hoe by Congress
man Joseph w. Bapcock, who arrlv-
ed in town from Necedah this morn
ing on his way to Iowa.
Eyes" said Mr.. Babcock resum-
aug, 1.-The president is in favor of a
government for the Philippines
under sovereignty of the United
States, but the particular form of
government is for the people to de-
fermine and [ have no doubt that
she will of the people will be carried
out by congress and the executive
officers whatever that may be. For
the present there is but one thing to
do, and that is to put down the in
surrection.
1.-The first thing to be taken up
bv the next session of Congress in
December is the money question.
The bill to provide for gold stand
ard will be speedily passed. Ger
fainly in the house CHS bill, will be
passed before the holiday recess;
and probably it will be passed in the
senate before that time. Then
there are the important questions as
60 the form of government for
Hawaii, Porto Rico and Cuba. We
want to investiga5 e these questions
fully. SO as to be able to act intelli-
gently, and we are not now ready to
saw what shall be done in each case,

The strongest evidence that there
is no foundation for the numerous
rumors of concerted interference by
the European powers to prevent
Great Britain taking possession OF
the Transvaal Republic and the
Orange Free State after the war in
South Africa has been fought to a
victorious end is furnished by Eu-
ropean members of the Diplomatic
Corps, who always know what is
going on in the European courts.
Not one of them believes in the pos
sibility of any concerted action
against Great Britain, although some
of them believe that if the Beers can
prolong the war tor awhile that
Russia, to serve purposes of its own
in India and elsewhere in Asia, may
tread quite heavily on John Bull S
toes. There is much speculation as
to what this government would do
if Russia made war against Great
Britain, but there is absolutely
nothing to be obtained in official
circles on the subject. Many indivi-
duals, some of them prominent, in
sist that in case of need it would be
the duty of this government to give
Great Britain the same moral sup
port she gave us IN our war with
Spain, and which there is little
doubt operated to keep European
fingers out of that war.
THE Chippewa Herald takes the
following view of Ira Bradford's
candidacy for the Republican nom
ination for governor:
Local papers continue to boom
the candidacy Of Ira Bradford for
the governorship. Mr.. Bradford is
nice fellow and generally popular.
He has been up as a candidate on &C.
casions past. The support he then
received was not sufficient to war
rant his attempting it next year,
but he seems to be following the old
maxim, "If at first you don't sue
coed. try, try again. Many sec
tions are waiting fer more oppor-
tune time to determine whom they
will support. 1t is 100 early to
count noses and we doubt whether
Mr.. Bradford Cat this juncture) can
securely bank on any support out
side his own county.
SENATOR Chilly" Mason, OF Hi
nois, threatens to resign if the re-
publican party does not renounce
it's doctrines OF expansion. Senator
Mason is bombastic sort of a gen
tleman, and when elected to the
senate announced that he would
break up the false notion of 'sena-
torial dignity" he demanded control
OF a large share of political patron
age, and made lots of noise. The
senator can not now stand for the
administrations policy of expansion,
and hence his threat to resign.
Well, the country can very we'll
afford to have a new senator from
Illinois in place of Mr.. Mason.

AND now the Rhinelander New
North is surprised, too, because
northern Wisconsin 'editor and
DOS master" dares have an idea of
his own, and the Hayward Republi
can also seems shocked at the idea.
According to these authorities "
the man who accepts a public posi-
ton barters away his manhood, his
right of speech, and is expected to
become mere piece of nothing
ness. Gentlemen, your definition
is tirely so. Uncle Sam
expects his servants to always be
American citizens-and Americans
always have the right to be heard.
THE TINES has been asked to join
in making the effort to purchase a
watch for Admiral Dewey by solicit
ing penny subscriptions from the
children, and has declined. This
paper yields to no one in admiration
for gallant Admiral Dewey, but
there is such thing as OVERRIDING
good thing, and this watch business
is wholly unnecessary. We would
advise the children to use the penny
for candy.
In 1896 woodmen were hired for
$12 a month right here in Wash
burn; now they are getting from $50
upwards, and don't give a "contin
entail whether they get a job at
that figure. Yet we wonder how
many Of them will be chumps
enough next year to vote against
the Mckinley administration, that
raised their wages.
WARD L. SWIFT has assumed the
editorship of George Bishpo's
Rhinelander paper, the New North.
Ward is a good, all round news
paper man, and his first number of
the New North is an Improvement
of about one hundred per cent over
the old North.

NORTHUMBERLAND FOR TYLER.
Hon. C. Harding walker Got the
DeIegates-Grcat Enthusiasm.

HEATHSVILLE, VA, September H.
Special To-day was County-Court day
here. and according 10 the decision OF our
County Executive Committee, was the
time for the mass-meeting for the cleo
ton of delegates TO the senatorial con-
vention to meet at Warsaw Friday next.
and also for the election of delegates to
the legislative convention 10 meet at
Union Village Thursday next.
The meeting was the most enthusiastic
and demonstrative ever held here. The
county chairman had no control. Hur-
rahs for Tyler, Walker, and others could
be heard above the voice of the Sheriff's
silence. gentlemen" Instructions were
passed for the solid support OF Hon. G.
Harding Walker for the Senate. which
assures his nomination. A vote taken In
the meeting directly between Walker and
Lee. his opponent, stood 156 TO ll6.
Mr.. Lee took his defeat admirably. and
both he and Mr.. Walker made short
speeches, thanking the people tor their
support.
There is no doubt that G. ]. Gouldman,
OF Westmoreland, will receive the nom-
nation to the Legislature as Westmore-
land stands solid for him and enough
of the delegates selected here to-day
have expressed themselves to that end,
No instructions for him were passed.
No vote was taken. as was wished, be-
tween Tyler and Martin. but many Map
tin men voted for Mr.. Walker on personal
grounds.
Mr.. Lee looked TO Northumberlan2 for
support, and was much disappointed al
the result. He says he is still Demo
crat however, and that his name SHAH
not go before the nominating convention.

ARcnBIsHop IRELAND's VIEW.
We should Not Condemn France TOO
Hastily.

ST PAUL, MINI, september 10
Archbishop ireland, on being asked TO-
day for his opinion on the meeting 10 pro-
test against the verdict Of the Rennes
court-martial, said: 1T IS my belief that
public meetings in America, such as II IS
proposed TO hold for the purpose OF pro-
testing against the sentence Of the
Rnnes court-martial, are untimely, I'M
fair to France and likely TO breed regret
able ill-feeling between that country ana
our own. i shah not deny that l have
always had in my heart deep sympathy
for the unfortunate officer who has been
under trial I'm Rennes. and that l had
wished and hoped that the sentence of
the court would have been one Of acquit-
tai But IT is another question to face
the verdict of the court the moment that
verdict has been declared, with the as
sertion that it is plainly against truth,
and that the court from which 1T issues
is guilty of base injustice and sacrlleSlouS
perjury. And il Is still more another
question 10 lay on France the crime Oh
the verdict, II crime there be, and TO
throw at a whole people and their gov
eminent insulting epithets. Let us walt
This whole matter belongs to the IN
ternal life and to the internal admins
tration OF France, and international cour-
tesy as well as justice bid us talk about
il very carefully and very slowly.
FRANCE RESENTS INTERFERENCE
France is a proud, sensitive nation
She will deeply resent, as it is surely her
right to resent, any uncalled-for inter-
ference with her internal administration,
and any imprudent challenging of her na-
tional honor
France has been our friend OF ages.
She was our friend when no other nation
befriended us. She is our friend to-day.
She is a sister republic. We should pause
long and seriously before blaming, sus-
pecting, or offending France.
Il can well understand and explain the
present happenings in America. The
American people are most easily aroused
to sentiments OF justice and humanity.
Prudence, however, is the queen Of all
virtues, and we should strive 10 make 1t
ours.
In what l say, / speak as an Amerl-
can. for what believe to be the good OF
America. i make no plea for France, al
though, because j know France, l love
her. despite her faults, and L hope for
her despite her perils."
