Ed T. Fortier, a member of the
Thirteenth regiment, who has just re
turned to Minneapolis, says among
other things that the boys are ready to
return home feeling that they have
done their duty, and he adds that their
places should have been taken long ago
by regulars, or by the provisional troops
which the president was authorized to
raise, and says that had the efforts that
have been made to get them home, been
concentrated toward having additional
troops transferred to Luzon, something
might have been accomplished. AS it
is, the most that has been done has
been to embarrass the government and
discredit the boys. Here is pretty
strong pointer for the Linds and Lees
to digest at leisure A higher range of
patriotism would have accomplished
more all around.

OUR CONSULAR SYSTEM.

The Consular Journal of Great Brit
ain, in comparing our consular service
with that of Great Britain, thinks the
United States will gain nothing by
changing it from the basis upon which
wh5Gh ii now rests, to that of a civil
services basis like England, and says
the.experience of England suggests that
that the change would not be beneficial
1t points out that the work is not Of a
routine character like 'clerkship, and
that v lille young man fresh from col
lege might be able in civil service
examination to beat business man,
yet the latter with his knowledge of
business affairs, commercial experience
and desirable personality might be able
to render far the best service, but under
a reorganization upon civil service
basis, might be barred out altogether.
The journal thinks that there is an adj
vantage in the frequent changes made
In America which are not wholly APP
preeiated, in that it does not keep the
consul away from home by long resi-
denoe, and cause him to get out of touch
with the commercial interests at home.
It also points out that while the Ameri-
can consul is not so we'll paid as his
English cousin, his work, because of his
closer touch with commercial interests
at home is much superior to that of the
English official. He is in the true sense,
says she Journal, a servant of the Of
fieialB and of the people, and they let
him have few idle moments. He is in
Btrncted to make all sorts of inquiries
in regard to trade, and is obliged to
make exhaustive reports which are
looked upon as of such Importance as to
be Immediately published, 1t looks up
on onr system as imperfect, but says
ahe English system can be improved
upon as well, and thinks the Americans
shORn go slow in the matter of radical
changes

The navy department has issued an
order which gives Admiral Dewey per.

trip will take about 55 days. 1t is ex-

Again the talk is heard that there will
be a scarcity of money to move the
growing crop when it natures next fall.
There are some who seem to like to
worry over this matter But this time
the talk seems to have started from the
scarcity of paper money in some locali-
ties. Money is more plentiful than for
years. and Comptroller Dawes says
there will be less trouble this year than
has been the case for years in this re-
spect. There is, he says, $40, coo, 900 more
of paper money in circulation than
was the case a year ago. The trouble
seems to be that with returning conf
dence and prosperity there is less dis
position to use. coin, hence it is turned
back to the treasury for paper. The
director of the mint has given orders to
the minis to coin no more double eagles,
but to confne themselves to five and
ten gold dollar pieces There is little
question, however, but that when the
time for moving the crop comes, the
banks will be found to have plenty of
idle money on hand for all purposes

A POOR EXCUSE.

The Morris Sun says that chad not
jacobson, with officious if not design
ing previousnegs, unexpectedly intro
duced during the first days of the SEES
sion his bill to increase the tax on
gross earnings, an effort would have
been made by some of the leading Re
publican senators to secure a reduc.
ton of railroad freight rates on princi-
pal products and leading commodities.
1t was the purpose as it is yet the in
tention of some of the party leaders to
legislate for lower tariffs, but jacob
sons course forestall such contemplate
ed action in the recent session, for to
have attempted to reduce freight "a ties
while an effort was being made to in
crease railroad taxation was entirely
out of the question" There seem to be
whole lot of papers that appear to
take delight in pounding Representa-
tive jacobson Mr.. Jacobson probably
is no better than his average fellow
man, but the Free Press is of the
opinion that he is honest and sincere in
his purpose, and that he was playing
fair when he introduced the bill to in
crease the gross earnings tax. We fail
to see where there was anything Of
fcious about it. He doubtless had as
good a right as any senator to propose
legislation of a railway character as he
saw fit, and the house, in its adoption
of his bill, pretty emphatically endors-
ed that right. The defeat of the bill is
a responsibility that rests solely upon
the senate, and the explanation of the
Sun is one that will not tighten that re-
sponsibility in the least. If the senate
was so anxious as the Sun infers to
pass bill reducing railroad freight
rates, why is it that one was not
formulated and some conference held
to see which one should have had the
right of way. 1t really seems as though
if the senators whom the Sun refers to
had been deeply in earnest in their de-
sire to accomplish something in behalf
of the people they could have done so
had they tried There was certainly
golden opportunity. But pounding Mr..
Jacobson in the neck does not excuse
them of their responsibility in the mat
ter. They killed the only bill that
promised benefits to the people in this
and made no attempt at
other legislation in return.

Lord Brelsford, in the current North
American Review says no two powers
have the interest in the future of China
that England and the United States
have. The trade of these two nations
amounts to 70 per cent of the whole.
Of this England's share is Ga per cent
and that of the United States per
cent. But Lord Brelsford calls atten-
ton to one peculiar fact, and that is
that there is considerable American
trade which is counted in the British
per cent, on account of it's being car
ried in British ships and handled
through British sources, so that the
American trade is really considerably
larger than we have actual credit for.
This feature will not be remedied until
our shipping interests are enlarged.

Speaking of the auditors sale of land
for taxes last week, the Redwood
Gazette says the amount of taxes on
land for sale in that county were only
abost $4,000, and that the bidding on
the various pieces was exceedingly
lively, there being number of repre-
resentatives present for eastern in
visitors who were eager to put their
money where it would draw 10 per
cent, and as a result the county rea-
lized from one half to one per cent, pre-
MUM on each description and investors
were able to place only one half the
money they desired. Chances for 10
per cent. interest returns are growing
rapidly less.

From reports carefully compiled it is
estimated that more than 700, 900 Ameri-
can wage earners have received vol
untary increase of wages within the last
four months. Take in addition to this
the thousands who were restored to the
the ranks of workers again as result
of the return to the policy of protec-
ton, and one has slight idea of the
vast prosperity uthat has taken hold of
the nation. And yet there are journals
which predict that the American people
are going to turn it all over next year
