How Louisiana was Purchased.

On April Is, 1902, President Jefferson
wrote to Livingston, our minister to
France that there was one spot on the
face of the earth so important to the
United States that whoever held it was
for that reason naturally and forever
our enemy, and that spot was New Or
leans. Again he wrote to Livingston:
THE day that France takes possession
of New Orleans fixes the sentence which
is to restrain her forever within her low
water mark. 1t seals the union of two
nations which, in conjunction, can main
tain exclusive possession of the ocean.
From that moment we must marry our
selves to the British fleet and nation
These were the words of one of the
most pronounced lovers Of France and
haters of all things British in the coun-
try He determined to buy the island of
New Orleans and the Floridas, and in
structed Livingston accordingly; in addi-
ton, he babe our minister negotiate also
for all of Louisiana north of the Arkan-
SaS river.
Bonaparte placed the negotiation in the
hands OF Marbois, his minister of finance
with strict orders not to sell for less
than 50,00O,000 francs. That astute min
lister promptly set the price Of Louisiana
1t 1OO,O00,O0O francs, and then compro-
missed on SO,OOO,00O francs.
The people We're astonished They had
asked for an island, a strip of sandbank
and a peninsula, and were given an en-
pire.-From an article entitled ''The Ac-
QUESTION of Louisiana" in Self Culture.

ARREST ORNAMENTS.
Russian Proposal for Standstill
Presented to the Peace
Confarence

The Hague, June pm De Staal,
president of the peace conference, at a
meeting of the committee today, intro
duced the Russian proposals looking to
the arrest of ornaments and read a
declaration disclaiming all intention of
proposing a reduction of the ornaments
at present. But, he added, he was of
the opinion that if a standstill could be
agreed upon, a reduction would soon
come of itself.
All the powers, he explained, had con-
ferred with the Gar relative to the i'm
mense evils of armed peace and he, NJ.
De Staal, now appealed to them to devote
their energies towards the arrest of the
continual increase in the cost Of armed
peace which, he asserted cost more than
tremendous war.
Col. Gilinsky of the Russian delegation
moved that the powers should enter into
an understanding for a term of say five
years, not to increase the effectiveness Of
the peace footing of their armies, with
the exception of the colonial troops, and
not to increase the amount of their mill
tary budgets, beyond their present figure.
The speeches and the resolution were
ordered to be printed and circulated, and
the discussion was adjourned until Mon
day.
A naval standstill resolution will be in
troduced later.

Washington, D. c., June 24.-The act
ing secretary of war today said that so
far as the department is concerned ques-
tons of the maintenance Of canteens at
United States army posts is settled in
favor of maintaining the present system
Reports from officers In all branches of
the service showed that from every
standpoint the army canteen as now OPP
Grated is infinitely better for the inter
est of the soldier than the old system of
post traders and low groggeries on the
outskirts of the posts. The regulations
under which the canteen operates are al
ready formulated. and there will be no
need for further action by the depart
ment.

NATIVES OF VERMONT.
Sons Of Dewey's State will Erect a
Statue Of the Admiral
in MOntpelier.

The National Admiral Dewey MOnu-
ment committee was recently organized
for the purpose Of securing funds for a
statue of Admiral Dewey, to cOmmem-
crate his great victory at Manila, to be
procured solely by contribution from
Vermonters now resident outside of their
native state, and will be presented by
them to the state Of Vermont.
At the porch leading to the State House
at Montpelier there is now a very appro-
pirate and striking statue Of Ethan Allen
contemplating his heroic deeds. 1t Is now
proposed that the natives Of Vermont who
have by the fortunes of time chosen other
sections of the country in which to reside
erect statue recognizing the brave and
worthy acts Of one Of their number who
has brought great honor, not only to the
state and nation, but to humanity in gen.
eral. As slight token Of such apprecia-
ton they wish to present to the dear old
state lifting memorial Of Admiral George
Dewey. When this is done future genera
lions will observe that on the left Ethan
Allen; denoting strength, and the one on
gether they will always be a reminder of
Gods promise that in strength would he
establish his Kingdom.
Honorable Everett G.. Benton, Waiver
ly, Mass, chairman IF the National
Dewey Monument committee, writes to
me, as he has to other natives Of Yer
mont:
I'VE are very anxious to have COM
mittee formed to handle the state of
Wisconsin locally in the interest of the
Dewey Monument subcommittee are
working in various Western states, and
we are anxious to have the state of Wis
consin covered in this way. Not so much
for the total amount of money received,
as we want small contributions from =
large number of Nermonters scattered all
over the country
Several OF these letters have been
turned over to me for action, and glad
ly undertake to receive contributions
from natives of Vermont IN behalf of the
Monument fund.
There are so many natives of the dear
Old state now resident in Wisconsin, that
it would seem a handsome contributiEn
i'll the aggregate could be sent to the
national committee from this state par
ticularly as the subscriptions are lmitcI1
from 81 to $40. 1t would be interesting
if contributors would give their native
town when sending their subscriptions.

FEAR YELLOW FEVER.
Steps in New York to Prevent the
Introduction of the Scourge
from Cuba.

New York, June 23.-Dr. A. II. Doty,
health officer of the port, is of the opin-
ion that there is more yellow fever among
the troops in Cuba than is reported by
the war department. Within six months,
he says, 5000 soldiers have returned from
Cuba and more than 5000 more will ar
rive here within the next two months.
He proposes to take special precautions.
Vessels from Cuban ports are to be
held at quarantine until they have been
thoroughly washed and cleaned and the
baggage fumigated. Passengers not hav-
ing certificates of acclmatization in Cuba
are held for five days from the time of
their leaving Cuba, that being the period
Of incubation of yellow fever. Should
yellow fever become epidemic in Cuba
even stricter regulations for it's exclu-
sion will be adopted here.
