Columbia, the Jim of the ocean,
Here's looking directly at you!
Our bosom is filled with emotion
And also the Red. White and Blue.
Columbia, the Jim of the ocean,
The way that you knock out your foes
Assures you our warmest devotion,
And makes us feel sorry for those.
Columbia, the Jim of the ocean,
You're made of the stuff that is hot,
You're all right on quickness of motion,
And your fighting Is chuck full of swat.
Columbia, the Jim of the ocean,
You're great on the land and the sea,
And you've recently upset the notion
You're not what you're cracked up to be.

And likewise our craw's full of sand.

Further, and apparently authentic, details
of the famine in Russia are furnished in an
appeal which has been issued from the Brit
ish and American Church in St. Petersburg
This document declares that although the af-
fected area is not so large in some parts
the distress is greater than it was in 1892
The affected districts include seven PROV
inces, whose total area is 10000 square
miles, and whose population exceeds eleven
ane one-half millions. OF these, about
half say, 100000 people, are famine
stricken, The wide area over which they
are spread increases the difficulty OF con-
veying relief to them. Scurvy, typhus,
typhoid and other diseases in their most
aggravated forms have broken out. and are
spreading The mortality. especially among
children, is alarmingly high, The emperor
and empress, the government, the Red
Cross society and other philanthrOpic socie-
ties, local zemstvos and many individuals
have subscribed several millions of rubles
and are working assiduously for the relief
of tho peasants distress. But there is
still urgent need for additional help. Five
million people are to be fed during the
next three months-i. e., up to next harvest
BY rigid economy, it is calculated that a
mans soul and body can be kept together
during one month, at a cost of a ruble
and a half or Is cents. To maintain the
starving population till the ground shall
yield them food, not less than 100000
rubles per month, or in all, about $ll ,000,-
600, are needed.

their powerlessness. There are probably
as many gold Democrats In that state al
Democrats Of the Bryan persuasion, yet
their influence was too feeble TO prevent
the Bryan crowd from slscting delsga-
ton to the national convention

by q process which was . defiance Of

New England states has not been 30
clearly demonstrated AZ In Masssch usetts,
but we question II they can elect single
delegate pledged TO oppose Bryan. What
can lie done In New York depends very
largely upon the attitude Of Tammany
and Croker. A year ago Croker was OPP
posed TO Bryan, but on his return from
Europe in the summer he spoke Of Bryan
in language 30 ELUSIVE as to lead every
body to conclude he had changed his
mind and was ready 10 get on to the
Bryan band wagon. Possibly the fall
elections have led him to change HE mind
again by demonstrating the hopeless ness
Of On npaign under tire Bryan banner.
With Croksr's aid German might make
some progress. but without IL It is difh-
cult to ses how he can be sure Of CON-
trolling any more delegates than bis own
state will furnish. Several months will
pass before delegate choosing will begin,
and something may happen to change
tire situation, but viewed from the stand.
Point of present conditions the chance of
Bryan looks very small indeed,
SO small that 1t Is amazing that anyone
has been found with courage enough to

GRAND TRUNK OUTLET II

hoped to have the steamship fitted with
refrigerator service to be used In connec-
tion with the Grand Trunk. This would
give fine opportunities for the shipping OF
farm produce to Cuba and the bringing
out Of fruit oaygoes.
This new connection will give the
Grand Trunk q new direct lire to the
ocean and will enable 1t to bid for Mari

steamer service may be increased II the
needs of the route demand It. The sailing

MIR. Resd's call for the settlement OF
the financial question early in the session
of the next Congress seems to te meeting

s,arcely he q doubt that IL will find re-
sronse In Con gress by prompt action. II
has bean a great many years since all the
conditions were so favorable for the SIT
Element Of the question as now. For q
long time there was SO much difference of
opinion among Republicans that about
all that 1t was possible to accomplish
was to prevent dangerous tampering with
the currency. and on several occasion the
believers in the gold standard were COM
PEELED to accept choice of evils. Now
all Republicans are agreed that the gold
standard lie the correct one, and the only
one on which the business Of the country
oan be safely based. That being the case
1t follows that now Ii the time to crystal
ize this belief into law.

Aguinaldo's government seems to be

fcattered, and 1t would seem that organ
ized resistance to our authority In
Luzon was pretty near an end. How
long we shall have to contend with guer-
rillas ard how long before the island viii
be really peclted it Is impossible to pre-
dict. Much will depend upon the tact,
displayed by the men we appoint to take
charge Of the island, and their mstho is.
A wise Cancellation may do much to
hasten pacihostion. Az arrogant and
overbearing manner will do much to
postpone 1t.
