Appleton. The directors of the public
library decided to keep it open for few
hours each Sunday. This action is dis
pleasing to the Sabbath Observance
League and they oppose it. One trouble
with the League, if their opposition to
the opening of the library is indicative
of its character, is that it has no proper
conception of what sabbath observance
is. An open library is one of the best
means which can be employed to secure
Sabba tn observance.

THE MAN WHO PAYS
HIS BILLS

Several of the newspapers of the state
are writing editorials commendatory OF
the man who pays his bills promptly.
This Of course, is in the way of censure
of the man who does not as praise
should not be accorded the man who
simply does his duty. The discharge of
duty in this one particular is simply
evidence Of performance of duty in all
lines The man who meets his obliga-
tions promptly finds it easy to do SO be-
cause to meet obligations is getting on
the road TO success
A young lawyer from this city who
has made state reputation in Michigan
told the writer that when he started in
to the practice of the law he did not
have sufficient means TO keep him for a
tions promptly if he had to go hungry
and frequently denied himself actual
necessities 50 as to pay his bills His
promptness led people to believe he had
a remunerative law practice and that it
came through merit, and clients poured
lin on him. He had brains enough to
meet the demands of the occasion and
is now enc Of the most successful lawyers
in the state. He attributes his success
to carrying out the resolution to pay his
bills though he admits that for time
it was fearfully hard and frequently his
stomach protested against his purpose
to pay his bills.
People who are negligent or indispos-
ed to pay are apt to think that people
who pay promptly do so because they
can afford to. They are changing the
relation of cause and effect People can
afford to pay because they make it a
practice TO pay and opportunities come
to them because it is known they will
meet their obligations.
Just as soon as businessman or a pro-
fessional man ceases to be prompt he be-
gins to lose business because conf
dence in him has decreased. 1t will
always be found that honesty is the
best policy, if honesty will not look
to higher plane for its exercise. To
meet obligations promptly is good rule
of business and success is impossible
without its observance.

ELECTION AND THE BOER WAR.

Should there be an election held to-day
the Boer war would cut a greater figure
IN determining the result than any ques-
ton regarding domestic affairs. There
is a feeling that the present administra-
ton is friendly to England and it arousey
spirit Of indignation out of all proper
war discussed everywhere People are
much more interested in it than they were
in the war with Spain The feeling is
intense against England, going to the e. =
tent of rejoicing over the losses her arm
les suffer in battle. Senator Mason has
rehabilitated his reputation by the res
olutions he introduced in the senate ex-
pressing sympathy with the Beers
II probable this feeling will die out with
the termination of the war and that may
not be very distant, Its intensity NAV
likewise prevent its being long lived. If
the feeling prevailing hereis general the
present administration has reason to be
thankful that it is not to 60 before the
people at present
The singular feature is that the Ger
mans are more pronounced in their hos
tility than are the Irish The former are
vehement in their expression against
England and indirectly against the Me
Kinley administration for its supposed
attitude of friendship toward England.
1t was apparent to every observant
person that sympathy was with the Beers
TO begin with. But no one expected
it would deepen into partisanship Ii
has all the features of Intense LOYALTY OF
which there will be sufficient residue
TO affect the election of 1900.
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1899-12-21

DR.. ANDREWS, superintendent of pub
lie schools in Chicago has been asked to
resign because he sympathizes with
England in the war with the Beers.
Whenever there is intense feeling there
is apt to be injustice as Il conconlitant
DR.. Andrews has just n much right to
favor England as others have the Beers
and his position should not be eudang-
cred because of his opinions. But cool
judgement will never govern in crises
and the present is u crisis in the matter
of heated public opinion.

NEAL BROWN of Wausau has a letter
i'll The Oshkosh Times on expansion
which is strong, sarcastic, almost abus
i've but not bitter 1t is evident from its
tone that he will not approve any plat
form which denounces expansion. He
coins "A term which will prove danger
Gus to those he characterizes by it. He
speaks of them as aunty-eXpansiOnists
Like the one blast from Roderick Dhu's
horn wh'r,l was worth 10000 men, til;
hyphenated word will be worth 10000
votes should expansion be an issue
Mr., Brown is hardly fair in his treat
ment of the subject. He forces agree
ment with him by arguing against what
is indefensible in the anti-expansion
policy when viewed apart from the en-
tire policy. He might characterize war
rs murder if he views the killing alone
eliminating patriotism and the just
cause OF the war. Extending the rule
OF the flag by means Of war is only one
form of patriotism and il may be under
circumstances that smirch patriotism.
We should never forget that injustice
greed which disregards the rights of
Others and substitution of might for
right will attempt to Justify itself by
assuming the garb of some virtue, That
patriotism is shown on the battle field
and that craftsmanship is exhibited in en-
larging our dominions do not necessarily
make the acquisition of territory by The
biyonet patriotic. Besides these is wide
distinction to be drawn between the
work done in the field in obedience to
promptings of patriotism and the policy
which insists upon that work being
done. To denounce the policy is not to
belttle the instrument whereby that
policy is carried ont. The victories at
Manila and Santiago stirred the blood
of the anti-expansionist to rs rapid n
course rs if he was a believer in subju-
CATION.
We should not belitrie patriotism by
prostituting it TO bad purposes, nor ex-
clude from it the element of Justice If
we abuse it by misusing it we shall soon
have IA spurious kind. And we should
not be hypocritical. 1t is a bad trait in
nation as well as in man Let us
announce openly to the world that we
are fighting the Filipinos because we
want the territory.

ENGLISH PRESTIGE GOING

The situation of England is most un-

The British Empire is not compact.

but her people disliked monarchy ana

Australia may choose to throw off the
authority exercised by England in view OF
the ease with which it may be done as
demonstrated by the Boer war. Can

Land readily if their continuance would
