PATERSON, N. j., Nov. 1.-Vice Presi.
a. N. He has slept since O'Clock and
DR.. Newton reports his condition i'm
proved.
A relapse or death was not anticipated
within the next u hours.
PATERSON, n. J., Nov. IA state
ment of the origin and development OF
the illness of Vice President Hobart
was authorized by his family and by
the physicians vino have attended him,
in part as follows:
The illness of the vice president
may be said to date from the fall OF
1898, prior to his return to Washington
in November, At that time his physi.
clans observed symptoms of embarrassed
respiration, with frequent attacks of
angina pectoris. This condition re-
sponded readily 10 treatment and when
the vice president went to Washington
in the latter part of November he was
i'll good health. He stood remarkably
well the straln and excitement Incl
dental to the opening of congress and
he was making favorable progress until
in January he became victim of the
grip. Following this there was a re-
turn Of the heart trouble, accompanied
with signs of degeneration. His ailment
was diagnosed as uilated right heart
due TO myocarditis. The recovery from
this attack was less rapid. and on the
last day OF the session of the senate, the
strain and excitement Of delivering the
closing speech were so great that he
was Oh the verge of a collapse.
ga few weeks after, toward the mid
die of March, the vice president and his
family, together with the presidential
party, Went to Thomasville, Ga, to
visit Senator Hanna. The fatigue of
the "trip affected Mr.. Hobart very un-
fayorably, aud his condition was fur.
sher impaired by the intense heat and
humidity then prevailing. As soon as
possible lie was taken to Long Branch,
where beneficial results from the sea
air aud quiet were expected His prog
ress toward recovery was not made,
however, at the rate that was antici-
pated, aud IL trip to Lake Champlain,
with the fatigue and exposure incidental
thereto, hastened rather than retarded
the course of his disease. Since then
his system has not responded to the
ninistrations of his ply sicians, and the
critical condition of the last few days
has been the result
''lt Is apparent from this statement
that the vice president is in no condi-
ton to resume his political duties at
Washington. His family desires, there.
fore, 10 announce that ne will not re-
turn to Washington nor will he again
take part ill public affairs. His condi-
ton is such that fatal result may en-
sue at any molnenu or his present con-
dition may be Indefinitely prolonged. :"

THE residents of the Indian Ter
rltory have a better right than
those of any other section to COM
plain of the expansion policy,
which goes across the ocean and
picks up islands and makes them a
part of the great commonwealth.
We have a right to insist that a
portion of the country inhabited by
bona-fde citizens of the United
States and by those fully fitted to
become such citizens should have
attention before we branch out and
take Under the sheltering wing of
the government few million of
ignorant heathens.- Purcell Reg

OF course President Mckinley
cannot afford to appear otherwise
than optimistic. This is the war,
in which he embarked without con
sulting Congress or the people. He
insisted through his agents at Paris
upon acquiring this territory re-
gardless of any desires of the in
habitants, and refused to conclude
peace with Spain unless these peo-
pie were handed over to him as
chattels.

THE substantial advantage
which the Democrats will possess
by reason of the anti-imperialist
movement in the east, will be in
the form of money contributions
for the campaign. There are a
number of wealthy men who would
not ordinarily vote the Democratic
ticket but who are satanically op-
posed to the retention Of the Phili-
ppines, and will contribute to the
Bryan campaign fund. The men
who now occupy this position are
theorist and emotionals. who for
get everything in the intensity Of
their opposition to expansion. The
Democratic campaign managers
must not lose sight of these facts,
which are patent to everyone.

The PERIL OF FRANCE.

The general decentralization of
the present ruling class in France
seems to become more and more
prominent as the Dreyfus trial
progresses.
At first the world was moved by
sympathy for the imprisoned cap
tain. 1t was believed that he had
been the victim of an unjust COM
bination of circumstances. and
that new trial would make all
this plain. The suicide of Colonel
Henri was the first intimation of
the seriousness of the question
about to be probed.
The trial opened with the loom
ing up of Labori as a skillful ad-
vocate. His handling of an intri-
cate question, his fearlessness when
confronted by power, and last of
all, the assassin's thrust, made of
him the foremost figure.
Now Dreyfus and Labor recede
from view, and it is betrayed
France which becomes prominent.
Men emblazoned in the decorations
of public service step up on the
witness stand to come down in
disgrace, each one acknowledging
some part in the perfidy which
makes France blush with shame.
1t is a terrible ordeal through
which the republic is going All
of her public idols have been shat
tered SO that nothing short of new
men and a relentless surgeon S
blade can save her.

W. l. MARTIN of Holder writes
that he knows of Indians both
Choctaws and Chickasaws who are
unable to obtain their lands from
the fact that some men have ex-
cessive holdings. He advocates a
meeting of those citizens with the
intention of er forcing the law re-
garding excessive holding. and
thus enable each citizen to secure
such lands as he may choose.

BECAUSE of the petty jealousies
surrounding the Otis regime in
Manila, it is a well known fact that
whenever that gallant soldier Law
ton. or any of the other fighting
geners are about to accomplish any
thing of Importance, he is imme-
diately recalled and put on other
duty, and it is owing to this schem-
ing that the war is allowed to drag.
