A TYPICAL AMERICAN HERO.

At time when homage is being paid to our heroes for what may be termed their purely destructive atil-
 ity, as We must regard the service of
 the men engaged in war and rebellion,
 we may well pause to admire the con-
 structive genius shown by General
 Leonard Wood. the modest hero of
 Santiago de Cuba Astound. .ng as it
 may seem. in that former pest hole
 of Spanish maladministrat:on, there
 are less than ten eases of yellow fever
 or other contagiou disease, and the American towns. That there could be such an achievement in sanitation in the short time since General Wood confronted the great task assigned him seemed impossible in view of the ac- cumulated filth of centuries. It was a task surrounded with personal dangers and official obstacles from which any man might have shrunk and few men were fitted even to grapple with. But the sanitary problems were not the OlIy CuSS u uI5tl. CdHIIdSO pIONtuCS was a hctbed of brigandage. Civic spirit was perverted with corrupt Spanish and Cuban ideas, idleness and squalor were everywhere, bitter and murderous hatred existed between the factions of the mixed population, and the province was without a decent school or highway. Some of these evils have been completely reformed, in others reformation has begun and continues, so that Santiago is today healthy morally and physically as it must soon be industr.ally. The ab- ance of the spectacular in the work of the typical American hero who has ac- all this in a years time should not lessen his glory a whit. but rather increase it. General Wood is a pre-eminent type of the resource ,ul American who successfully con lUeIs all obstacles in war or peace. 1 In no man of Tate years has the maxim l lad a better embodimeEt: Peace 1 hath her ic:ories no less renown'd l han war;

It would have been a graceful act on the part of New Workers who are plan ming a great reception toAdmiEal Dew ey if they had appointed on their re- ception committee a number of rep resenta5ive Americans from other states. Unless the country is m.stak- en in it's belief that Dewey disparagas and threads clamor over himself, and if the belief of his friends that he vii! promptly seek seclusion and rest is wrcng, the New York welcome will be the only opportunity for great pop- ular demonstration in the admirals honor. The metropolis would sacri- flee none of the credit due her for the magnificent welcome whose cost she will bear if the honor of formally greeting the hero should be shared With the people of other states through their representatives.

l bullets of the enemy poured into the
 column from three sides, so that our
 men could find no shelter even behind l the cocOanut trees With which the
 plantation is studded. Several mon | dropped under the hot fire of the en- emy, and Lieutenant Lansdale, the ex- ecutive officer of the Philadelphia, had
 his leg shattered by rebel bullet
 while eRdeavoring to fix up the dis
 abled gun. Some of the officers and
 men wanted to charge, but that would
 have been of little avail. Indeed, q
 charge would have probably meant the
 surrounding of the whole force, and
 the cutting off of the only line of re-
 treat And so the British and the
 treat And fougho on shoulder to
 shoulder, till it became obvious that safety lay only in retreat.
 Lansdale and brave Enslgn Mon aghan by some means or other got left behind. They were probably lost sight of in the trees or the long grass of the plarl-ation. For time a sailor was with them, but his ammunition was exhausted, and Lansdale, now badly wounded, asked his comrades to save themselves. The sailor went, but Monaghan refused to budge, and continued to help along his superior officer whose leg was shattered The rest is soon told. They found his body next day, not far from Lansdale's Both had their heads cut oc. Between the two lay a dead Mataafa warrior. Two other dead men lay near; and Lansdale, in addition to his shattered leg, had now bullet through his heart It was easy to read the story. The brave young ensign, surrounded by the rebels, fought it'll the last, and not till his comrade was shot dead did he think of retreat And l nave 10 manner Of doubt that it was his rifle or revolver that had accounted for the three dead Sam0ans who lay near The American navy lost two brave officers. but the American nation Is the richer for a story that will live in history.-Malcolm Ross in Harper's Weekly.

NOT A QUIBBLE.

It was denied by the Philadelphia
 Press that, with the exception of the
 Standard Oil company, there is any such thing as a trust Tn this coun- try, and the Standard rs about to abandon the trust organization to be a mere corporation A democratic journal calls tkis quibbling on the part of the Philadelphia paper and says it isn't the name or particular form of organization that the American people are interested in. That may be true. but there is no quibbIe whatever in tEi-S distinction, which is 8 legal and very important one The courts have decided that real trusts. i. e., allied concerns managed by trustees while retaining their separate entities, are illegal. The courts have also declared that corporations, whether small or large, or whatever their purpose. If u be within the law, are as unassailab.e as the individual who carries on a Ie- gal business. The concerns popularly known as trusts are not trusts at all, but corporations differing in no way except tn size and scope from like companies existing in every city and state of the Union, whose right to ex- .st ard do business has never been questioned. They may be good or evil in their effects, but 1t is hard to see how they are to be successfully as sailed without overturning one of the oldest principles of the law.
