UNQUNCHABLE THIRST FOR DE-
 FEAT.

The democratic party has an un- GuenchalbIe thirst TOT defest. Appar- ently It is committed irreVocabiy to the Chicago platform, which has been beaten sOundly ct the polls once, and which the elections of 1898 showed to be weak, even in the west, from which it sprung
 But the Chicago platform WAS not load enough for the patient back of the democracy. New follies and new invi- tatiCns to disaster must be sought The administration must be opposed, even when it represented the patriotic hopes of the majority of the people, Against the wishes of all but the mar rowest democratic partisans, against the advice of MT. Bryan, the demo- cratic leader, most of the democratic senators fought against the treaty Of peace. They helped infiame the enc mics of the United States in the Phil ippines Their hands helped point the guns that shot down American sOi- diers in Manila And while those guns were sounding in the ears of the Amer jeans and every American Hho de- served the name was eager for peace with Spain and the stern prosecution Of the war in the Philippines, these accompliceS of A guina do voted against D6dCS duQ against IlS OulL0u 0Idl6S.
 They had been giving aid and com fort to the enemy all along, and they didn't allow any instinct of patriotism to lessen their opposition at the final moment. What were a few dead or wounded soldiers to these men? Their idea of the duty of democrat is that hc should oppose everything favored by the republicans. They don't allow any weak consideration of the honor and the interests of the United States to influence them
 So the democratic party must go be- fore the country as an opponent of peace. the partisan juggler with the interests of the United States in the face of the enemy, and the cold as sassin of men wearing the United States uniform.
 Twenty-four democrats, counting Turpie and White who were paired against the treaty, voted No, and only ten voted Yes. More than Uwo-thirds voted No The patriotism Of the dem ocratic senators who voted in the af- frmative. the patriotism of the wVs- dom of all the democrats who depIored the ruirOUs and impOtent policy of obstruction, cannot save the democracy from responsibility for the course taken by the majority of the demo- cratic senators. The democracy has tied another millstone around it's neck

FEEDING MILK COWS.
Liberal RationS Arc Necessary to Se-
 curc Satisfactory Results.

Liberal Rations Arc Necessary to Se-
 cure Satisfactory Results.
 The character Of the feed determines to a very considerable extent the quan- tity and quality of the milk and but
 ter from gcrod COW. An extra yield of ] butter will naturally follow the use of q richer ration, but this is not al ways the case with common COW. So there is something in the breed as well as in the feed.
 The dairyman who is seeking the best results at the lowest cost should satis- fy hinsclf as to what are the best kinds of feed, considering the cost, that will produce the most and the best milks.
 Generally a com bination of feeding materials will give the best results, as certain elements wanting in some food will be supplied by others. Suceulent food increases the low of milk, but does not materially increase the proportion Of water in it. Still, feed cften does make Q change in the dry substance of the milk.
 A ration rich in albuminoids will make a richer milk, ard the relative proportions of fat and casein are changed to very considerable extent by change in the ration. Another point that ;s well settled is that cer- tain kinds of food will produce changes in the composition of milk not irdi- cated ly chemical analys.s. Succulent food is productive of the largest quan- tity of fat in the milk, and also has the effect of causing the cream to sep arats more readily from tile m.ll: and the butter globules from the cream, leaving less fat i2 the buttcrIn;lk
 For dry feed 8 combination of four parts of wheat bran, two of cornmeal and one Of Iinsecd oil makes enc Of the best. especially during the winter. If any change is made in summer it would be from corn to grcurd oats. This, with good pasture, makes con- plete ration for milch COW during the When the pasturage cannot be supplied, some good soiling crop that can be cut off and fed green may take its place.
 Liberal feeding is always necessary with the dairy COW, as it is only the surplus over and above what is neccs- sary to sustain life and thrift that is used for milk. If the cow is kept up to her full capacity she must have all the milk-producing food she will consume. It is only this kind of feeding that makes a good profit i'll dairying.-St. Lcu;s Republic.

THE TRUE AND THE FALSE TYPE
 OF SOLDIER.

The utterance5 of Major General
 Wesley Merritt, the general second ir rank in the army of the United States
 on the management and conduct of our troops in the late battle at Manila, and on the general Philippine situation and our military administration there, fur nish an example and a model of the tone and manner proper for a soldier in public discussion of such a subject more especially in time of war. No one who reads them who has any con- ception of the requirements of conduct becoming an officer and a gentleman can avoid contrasting them with the spirit and methods of General Miles, the commander of our army.
 General Merritt had as much excuse for sIlhing and carping as General Miles had The war has not furnished him an opportunity to increase the dis tinguished reputation he won in the civil war, but it has given him the op portunity to display anew the nonlest qualities of the soldier in the proud and hearty recognition of the services rendered by other and more fortunate officers on the field of actual battle. Neither by faint praise nor by innu- endO does he seek to lessen their glory or steal any of it for himself In all his utterances, so freely made since the battle at Manila, he reveals a manly nature and the true spirit of the gal lant and magnanimous soldier.
 He speaks of General Elwell s. Otis, commanding our Philippine army, as "a superb soldier" and says he has "tha cooperation of some very able off, cers,'' among whom he instances Gen eral MacArthur as "a bright man and a thoroughly competent man." Gen eral King, "a most efficient officer, . General Hale, "a man of superior mili- tary ability" He is proud to Je in ser vice thus distinguished, and instead of thus distinguished, and instead of showing aside his interiors in rank and thogging the stage" for self-display, he brings them to the front to crown them before their count trymen and the world with the praise of a consummate soldier, as he is.
 If there is anybody who does not recognize the great moral elevation of such expressions over those which have come from General Miles without variation since he outraged military discipline with his carping newspaper interview at Porto Rico, something must be out of gear in his mental ma chinery; he must be incapable of rec ognizing the difference between con duct becoming and conduct utterly un- becoming an officer and a gentleman.

QUAY AND KINNEY.

l The postpOnement of the trial of Sen
 ator Quay, upon motion of the district
 attorney of Philadelphia, has been re-
 eeived with dissatisfaction in view of
 the fact that no reasons for such a step
 were presented The presiding judge l however, was cognizant of the inten- l tion to postpone and agreed with the | district attorney that he was right in
 declining to proceed It is .intimated
 that the panel of jurors had been tamp-
 cred with, but until there is some evil dence to that effect it may be set down
 as mere gossip. The district attorney
 declines to explain his course, but he
 was acting within his rights as prose-
 cutting officer The previous delays had been caused by the defendant him. self and the district attorney has here
 tofore been anxious to take up the case.
 It is unfortunate that the case could not be tried at once, but time may re- veal that there was sufficient provoca- tion for the delay. The date set for the trial is but ten days prior to the day fixed for the adjournment of the legislature at Harrisburg. Thus it will be almost impossible for Senator Quay to expect to derive any benefit from the outcome of the trial He still stands as an indicted man, and the Pennsylvania legislature, aside from any other reasons for objecting to his return to the United States senate, is Justified in refusing to elect him under the circumstances
 In the meantime nothing is heard of the future action of the government concerning the case of Senator Ken ney of Delaware, who is still under in dictment for his alleged acts in con- neotion with the First National bank of Dover, Del. Senator Kenney has twice faced a jury and twice che jury failed to reach verdict. The matter of a third trial rests with the depart ment of justice in Washington. and some action ought to be taken soon As long as Senator Kenney is under indictment he is in a most embarrass- ing position. He is, of course, in a legal sense, to be considered innocent until convicted. He is simply charged with certain offenses. and the stigma ought to be removed if possible Even a dismissal of the case would not re- lieve him from the odium, but he would be relieved from restraint.
 It would be better for the two ac- cused senators to have their status de- termined by the verdicts of jurors and | thus forever dispose of the charges made against them.

AN INDICTMENT OF REED.
Leading Republican Organ of the West
 Arraigns the Speaker.

The Tribune cordially subscribes to
 all the Inter Ocean has to say in re- gard to the need of a change in the speakership of the house. MT. Reed
 has arrogated to himself powers that | cannot safely be intrusted to any man under a free government. He has es tablished an intOlerable despotism over the house, and has undertaken to con trOl or thwart it's will in many instan- l ceS. No popular representative body has ever permitted it's presiding otf1- cer to exercise for long, such powers as MT. Reed has usurped He claims to be the victim of the rules, but they are the weapons he forged to make him self more powerful. He snapped the handcuffs on his own wrists and can rid himself of the manacles whenever he chooses. The phraseology of his friends shows how indefensible his po- sition is They constantly say that Mir. Reed controls the house ad mirably and dominates it.
 Now, it is not the duty of presid- ing officer to control or dominate majority of the body over which he presides. His duty is to give expres- sion to the will of the majority, not to obstruct it. The assumption that the speaker knows what is best to be done cllIu I1IolI oi 1lIeiJCl ItJ OI CIAC AAOu~N OOOS not know as much, may be gratifying to Mir Reeds vanity, but it is wholly fallacious In no other parliamentary body in the world is such an hypothe- sis entertained, and it will surely break down of it's own weight in our house.
 The people of the west are growing extremely tired of MT. Reeds tyranny. They wish to know why he should have power equal to that of one hun dred representatives elected by the people. On what principle of repre- sentative government is it just that the state of Maine should hold the nation by the tail? Until the deaths of Messrs Milliken and Dingley, Maine not only had the speakership but the chairmanships of ways and means naval affairs and public buildings and grounds, and Maine counted for more in the house than the entire Illinois delegation, although it had but cne- fifth as many members. Even now MT Reed counts for more in shaping legislation than the congressman from half a dozen big states. He has nulli- fled the provision of the constitution for the equal representation of the pep pie in congress and has repealed the fourteenth amendment. How long does the west propose to submit to such misrepresentation? - Chicago Tribune.

An absurd and iu-advised habit state legislators appear to be getting into of instrTcting congressman how to cast their votes, was pretty well shown up the other day by Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota. The present Iegisla- tilre of that state, which undertook to map out his course, he said, "is the third since was elected a senator the last time. In one resolution was passed endorsing the free and unlim- tied coinage of silver Both houses of the next legislature passed a similar resolution. The present legislature is in favor of the single gold standard. If 1 should undertake to follow the course laid down by the legislature, I'd be on almost every side of almost every public question" What the legisla- lures should do is to devote less time to national questions and get down to the business of looking after state af- fairs-a thing which many of them ap- parently have little disposition to do.

The chairman of the senate commit tee on naval affairs is that avowed and unblushing friend of Spain, MT. Hale who has been reelected by the Maine legislature, which afterward slapped him in the face by inviting his patri- otic colleague, MT. Frye, to visit Au- gusta as the guest of the state. It is Hale who is chiefly responsible for cut ting down the naval appropriation bill, thus impeding the growth of the navy, and the people will not forget his rep rehensible conduct. The good fea- ture of the bill is that it authorizes the use of concrete or granite instead of timber in the construction of new dry docks,

THE LOCAL CROEsUS.

Go into any thriving, business town and watch the tides of trade as they ebb and flow, and you will discover that the man who is in the swim for the time being is there because he has made the people believe he has what they need. He advertises the wares on his shelves, the bargains he has to offer, the skill he has to exercise, or the grand chance his neighbors are all looking for. He knows that the paper pub lished in his town goes into it's homes and will be read there; that through it's columns he can talk to the inmates of those homes; and he gives it his story to repeat at every f1reside. The result is, his store is crowded, his trade f1ourishes, he is forced to enlarge his premises to meet the growing wants, and fortune smiles above his threshold; he becomes at length the local Croesus. There is not a busy, active, prosperous, growing com munfty cn this continent to which this picture will not apply. Profitable Advertising.
