Senator Ross Sensible Views.

Our recent war demands much
attention to our new colonies and
during the long recess Senator Ross
has given the subject OF our relations
with our new territories careful and
exhaustive study. While the dis
tinguished Senator is one of the
youngest in service in Congress his
long service on the bench gives him
standing in Washington which
his colleagues have not failed to
recognize. His ideas on the manage.
ment of the colonies are exceedingly
practical and one of them is to take
the management away from the In
terror department, which has long
been crowded with all kinds of bust
ness, and to create new depart
ment and cabinet officer who
would be foreign or colonial secre-
tary. Each of the new possessions
demand different Management and
very careful attention until all the
difficulties are overcome and this
could best be done, he thinks, by
having them directed through a
department which would have moth.
ing else to attend to. This CORE.
spends, as we understand it, to the
system in vogue both in England
and Germany and in both OF those
empires the colonial system has beer

The next republican national con-

The next republican national con-
vention will be held in Philadelphia,
June 10, and it looks very probable
that the nominees will be Mckinley
and Root, the latter being the new
secretary of war. The first repub-
lican convention was held at Phil
adelphia IN 1856, when Fremont
and Dayton were nominated, and at
philadelphia Grant was nominated
in 1872.

but gradually, ultimately all the peoples of
the earth 1t is opposed to Imperialism
and militarism, to the domination of
wealth and aristocracy. 1t sees in the pur-

est of class at the expense of the great
body of the people
The Republican has profound faith that a
larger prosperity, greater power and
wider influence to be attained for the
United States by a strict adherence to our
traditional principles in the home govern
ment and in foreign relations, than by an
initiate of the policies and methods of
the European monarchies. 1t believes in
the expansion of our commerce everywhere,
and of our domain over contiguous terri
tory, by peaceful and natural processes.
To the advancement of these ideas The Re-
publican dedicates itself anew in this time
of the republics peril from misguided foes
in its own household.
The general features of The Republican are
interesting and valuable. Its editorial
page is strong, progressive and comprehen-
sive. Liberal attention is given to litera-
ture. The special correspondence is of a
high character. The Sunday Republican is
especially rich in fiction, instructive
sketches, poetry, special articles and mis-
cellaneous reading of excellent quality. 1t

THE GOLD FIELDS
What a Returned Fortune
 Hunter Says of it

A G. Patton, . civil engineer. and Fred Creighton are among the latest arrivals from the San Roqns placers. They made e thorough investigation of the field while there, and are no enthusiastic over the result. Mir Pat ton, while not incliued to talk for publication, said yesterday:
 "It is no place for a American without money. A color Of gold can be had from dirt scooped up anywhere but the lack of water and facilities for mining makes the work too expen- sive to be profitable. except in rare instances. It is essentially e Mexican camp, and my advice to Americans would be to keep away unless well supplied with capital and experience iu working desert mines"

LIGHTNING FRANKS Strikes a House and Barley
 Misses the Occupant

During the rain which occurred la:e this afternoon. peal oi lightning struck 6 frame house on Fremont Street near First belonging to Geo Thomas, and set the house afirs. The conf1agration vas extinguished before much damage was done, but the most remarkable incident was the narrow escape of the occupant Of the house. Thos Ingram, who was sitting within few feet of ths bolt of lightning and did not feel any shock, or i'll eEec,s from the discharge of atmospheric electricity. The lightning struck the door-sill, splintsri ng the step in the doorway of the house, and in i,s course struck the roof where it isnited. A heavy clap of thunder immediately followed the lightning the report of which was deafenipx and the heavy rumbling caused the neigh, boring buildings to fairly trsmbls. Fortunately not much damage va, done and Mir. Ingram is now con. graduating himself on his nsrro v escape from sudden death.
