DON'T WORRY ABOUT SALARIES
What Another Person May Get Signi.
fies Nothing to You.

"What salaries sre paid in different
business callings is a question often
asked by young men, and one which
seems to enter into their deliberations
as qualifying factor as to whether they
shall enter into certain trades or pro.
fessions," writes Edward Box in the
September Ladies Home Journal. 81
never could see the point of this nor the
reason for it. What are the salaries
which are paid to others, to you or to
me? They .signify nothing. If the
highest salary paid to the foremost man
in certain profession is $4,000 a year
what does it prove or signify? There is
no obstacle to some ones else going into
that same profession and earning $685..
600. The first step in going into bust.
ness is to find out not which special line
is most profitable, but which line you
are most interested in and are best fitted
for. Then drive ahead, and the salary
will take care OF itself. When q young
man thinks too much of his salary it is
pretty good proof that he is not of very
superior make. Ability commands in.
come. But you must start with ability
not with salary.

A Summing Of the Philippine Campaign
to Date.

We are in the Philippines as a result
Of meeting imperious and unavoidable
moral responsibilities to ourselves, to
the natives, and to the world, resulting
from the war with Spain, and we cannot
retreat from them without shame, dis.
honor, and disgrace to us as great
nation and as Christian, civilizing peo.
ple-without reference to material op
portunities in the Pacific and the i'm
pending possibility that if we shirk our
responsibilities we will forsake our posi-
ton as permanent first class power in
the Pacific and come trailing along be
hind Great Britain, Russia, Japan and
Germany. There never was a time
since May l, 1898, when our naval or
military forces could have abandoned
Manila, and Admiral Dewey will confirm
this when he returns.
The immediate occasion OF the pres
ent conflict can be logically attributed to
the Fiipinos and not to ourselves. The
fighting was begun and has been carried
on under the most adverse conditions of
season and climate which characterize
tropical countries. The outbreak can Q
at the end of the cool season and at the
beginning of the excessively hot period.
When this hot season was over it was
Immediately followed by the rainy
months, which are still Running on and
will not end until November.
Despite these conditions the Ameri.
can forces have not met with a single
decisive reverse from the beginning of
the campaign up to the present writing,
and have every where and in ali expe-
ditions driven the natives before them
at will. The Filipino army, pushed from
"pillsr to post" has suffered enormous
losses, is deprived of sources Of fresh
ammunition and supplies from the out
side world, is demoralized from an or.
ganized army into retreating isolated
bands, is forced to brutal tactics to keep
the people in line and the leaders from
deserting to the Americans, depending
on the Hong Kong junta to manufacture
alleged reports from AguiHsldo favor

ditions, reaches from linus in the south
to Angeles in the north, distance Of
nearly seventy five miles, and from Ma
nila southeast to Calamba, on Laguna

very heart of the island. We not only

condition of this industry in the
Republican party of Idaho but 1t
is likely to be more prosperous
than in either of the last two poll
teal seasons. The reason of this
is that for the past four years the
promises of the Republican poll
ticans were largely discounted by
the hopelessness of Republican
success. The situation is now re-
versed, and it is a fair presumption
that business in this line will ex-
perience a marked revival, We
are not vain enough to think that
anything we may say on this sub
ject will carry much weight, but
as it is the universal verdict of
mankind that the political prom

fraud, and the political derelict
who hangs his hopes on such
promises, blank fool, we may
voice these sentiments with the
approval of wisdom snd expert
ence. If these few lines shall to

ing business, or if they shall save
a few simple souls from becoming
the victim Of it, we will be amply

Hobart Dead.

Paterson, N. J., Nov. a1.-
Vice President Hobart died. at
$3.50 a. m. The Vice President
das been failing since late yester-
day afternoon, although the re-
ports given out at the house were
that he was holding his own.
Soon after midnight he became
unconscious and at 7 O'Clock this
morning he had an attack of an
gina pectoris from which he never
rallied.
Mrs. Hobart, Garrett A. Hobart,
Jr., DR.. Newton, Mrs. Newton,
who is a cousin of Mrs. Hobart,
and Miss Alice Waddel, the nurse,
were at the PATIENTS bedside con-
stantly fronrthe time he became
unconscious.
Before Mr.. Hobart became UNI
conscious, he was able Ito converse
with Mrs. Hobart about some
private affairs. He was very pa
tient and showed his remarkable
will power to the last,
Soon after the news of Mr.. Ho-
bart's death was announced, tele-
grams of coincidence began to ar
rive at Carroll Hall. Among the
first to send words of sympathy
and coincidence to Mrs. Hobart,
were President Mckinley and
Mrs. Mckinley.
Mrs. Hobart bears up well un-
der her great bereavement.

their own affairs to suit them
selves. That looks reasonable.
The Britshers claim that the Out
landers' original right to be in
the TransYaat country is equal to
that Of the Beers; that they are
civilizing and developing the
country; that they constitute two
thirds of the population, eleven
twelfths Of the intelligence and
pay nine -tenths Of the taxes; that
all they demand is a proportion
ate voice in the government they
are taxed to maintain, and that
looks fair, too. We recall it
was taxation without representa-
ton that melted our forefathers
to break John Bulls head; and
you remember our forefathers
were mighty glad when France
stepped in to give them a lift.
That is the way the Outlanders
felt when the Britishers took a
hand. This to degree places
our forefathers in the same box
as the Outlanders, and if the for
mer were right, why not the lat
ter? But the Beers are contend
ing for the right 10 govern them
selves, and that was what our
forefathers fought for, so, you
see, that puts the Beers and the
forefathers in the same box, and
if the latter were right so of the
former. This is what rattles us.
If we stick to no taxation without
representation, which we must do
or GO back on our forefathers,
then we become Outlanders; but
if we insist on no government
without the consent of the gov
erned, then we become Beers.
If we stand squarely on the prin-
ciples of our forefathers, we are
neither Beers nor Outlanders; so,
all things considered, perhaps the
best thing to do is to saw wood
and let the South African war
take care of itself.

self adulation, or coldly thrusting

he really means to say that the

being so is entirely due to the

that is hitting Steunenberg and

1t is reported that Governor
Steunenberg and Auditor Sinclair
have gone to Wardner to wind up
business at the bull pen. The
few remaining prisoners are to be

tragedy that shocked the nation.

a NATIVES VIEWS.

There is an excellent article on
the Philippine problem in a re-
cent number of Success, written
by Ramon Reyes Lala, well ed
ucated and intelligent Filipino. 1t
should be earnestly studied by
sincere anti-expansionists and all
who doubt the wisdom Of the pres
ent policy of this government.
Mr.. Lala, in opening, says: 81 feel
myself competent to discuss this
question impartially; not as an
exile from my native land-aI-
though, if | had stayed there,
Spain might have made me an
exile from earth, as she did many
who trusted in her honor,-but as
one who has dwelt long enough
abroad to imbibe the spirit Of
western civilization and to speak
of the Philippines from the point
Of view of an outsider" After
speaking in glowing terms of the
natural wealth of the islands in
minerals, forests and agriculture,
Mr.. Lala discusses. the question
of government. He predicts that
if Aguinaldo and his followers
should be successful in the pres
ent struggle anarchy would follow.
"The Tagalogs" he says, "are on
ly one of many races in the Phil
ippines, savage and civilized, hos
tile and friendly, and to imagine
that Aguinaldo or any TagaIog
leader could form a system of
that would be accept
ed by all these races, is to imagine
wildly" The withdrawal of the
American forces, would he thinks
be follower by civil war and
a reign of anarchy quite as OPP
pressive as Spanish rule. Upon
the whole Mr.. Lala is strongly in
favor of the retention of the Phil
ppines by the United States. And
ne presents so many facts and so
much logical argument to support
his views that no candid mind
can remain unconvinced. He
shows clearly that American oc-
'upation is mutually advantageous
o both parties at interest. The
United States will profit by the
zast commerce that will grow up
md the Filipinos will enjoy a free,
secure government, education
md civilization.

POLITICAL PROMISES.

The man whe bases his hope
of political preferment on the
promises of politicians is building
on a mighty sandy foundation.
This is a fact which everybody
comedies, yet, the crop of dupes
remains undiminished, and the
strangest thing about it is that the
most experienced politicians are as
susceptible as the veriest tyros.
Men who have dealt bountifully
in promises they never intended
to keep and had no power 10
keep if they would, when reduced
to political straits, develop a faith
that is at once sublime and ride
ulous. With confidence that
is pitiful in its childishness, they
hang their hopes on promises as
futile and hollow as any ever made
0P themselves. During the next
twelve months the political prom
ser and his victim, the promisee,
will be conspicuous figures. They
are already coming into some
prominence and it viii be inter-
to watch their growth. 1t

BADLY MIXED.

AS in a fight between a big
boy and small boy our sympa-
thies naturally go to the small boy,
so it is in the war between the
British and the Boer. Without
knowing much about the right Of
the matter, vs. inwardly rejoice
when the little fellow puts in a
good lick and cherish heavi-
ness Of heart when he limps off

velopment. There is, however,
a right and wrong side to the
Transvaal controversy, and we
should desire to see the right pre-
vail irrespective of natural SYM
pathies or the size of the combat-
ants. That is plain enough, but
the trouble with this South At

right. The Beers claim that

1t is minated broadly that
Secretary Patrie has been touch
ed by the Establishments of prom
inent Republicans, and that his
detection from the union of silver
forces is more induced by hope
of substantial reward than the
qualms of outraged conscience.
That may be true. But let it be
remembered that the 'tunion Of
silver forces" was a strictly com
mercial union, untrammeled by
moral considerations in the slight
est degree. Therefore, the worst
that can be charged against Mr..
Patrie is that he is getting out
for exactly the same reason that
he went in. A man would be a
fool to stick to a busted combina-
ton.

Secretary Patrie's epistle will not
become epidemic, and moreover,
do we hope there will not be such
a similarity of thought and ex-
preston in them as to render their
origin doubtful.

JUSTIFICATION ENOUGH.

BY sending out the letter which
appears on the first page Of this
paper, Secretary of State Patrie
has rendered himself obnoxious
to the abuse and denunciation of
every well regulated Democratic
journalin the State. His motives
will be impugned and his iuteg-
'rity will be discredited. For a
few weeks his name will be liber-
ally commingled with those of
Benedict Arnold, John Sherman
and innumerable other actual and
imaginary traitors, and then the
storm will pass away. We hope
some one will carefully preserve
the Democratic press comment
on this incident, because it will in
a short time rise up to confound
its authors and convict them of
every charge now laid against Mr.,
Patrie. Already the shadow of
coming events is deepening.
Every day the Democratic defec-
ton from the sacred principle of
free silver is increasing. Every
hour the hold of Organism is
loosening and every minute the
hole through which Democrats
will crawl away from bimetalism
is being enlarged. Every intelli-
gent observer knows that the'par-
amount issue" has already been
relegated to a question of third or
fourth rate Importance, by De-
mocracy itself. And that alone
is sufficient justification for the
step taken by Mr.. Patrie. But
The degradation of the silver ques.
ion is only one of the causes
which inspire honest Silver Re-
oublicans to repudiate Democracy
and shrink from any further al
~
lance with it. 1t has arrayed it
self against the authority Of the
United States; it has embraced
Aguinaldo and his cutthroat reb-
lis; it has and is giving comfort

lbl wretches who are shooting
