ley in his next message to congress will
lay much stress on the need for cable
line across the Pacific and will again
ask congress to authorize the laying OF
such cable In furtherance of this
plan surveys are already being made
for the purpose Of ascertaining the most
feasible routes from the Hawaiian Is.
lands to the Philippines. The surveys
between the former islands and Sau
Francisco had been previously made,
and it is not necessary to have that
portion of the route gone over again.

In forming an estimate Of the BOer
character one must take into account
the strong religious admixture which
obtains therein and which is factor not
to be ignored in the present hostilities.
The most striking example Of Boer lit
eral faith in God is the contrast be-
tween their defeat under the atheist
burghers, whom they could not trust
to lead them into battle against the ma
tives and SO were routed, and their
wonderful victories over the British in
the war of independence of 1S6O-1,
when they fought with a courage and
persistence above all praise, inspired by
the stirring conviction that the Lord
was fighting with them and for them.
The same religious fervor exists today
and the same strong faith that the
''God of battles'' is with them. Few
people have ever shown a more touch
ing reliance upon the Supreme Being.
The great analogy is the setting forth
Of the pilgrims from Holland, not far
from the time when the Dutch also set
forth from that country to found homes
and republics in South Africa.

Vermont is not likely to get over
throwing bouquets at herself for several
hundred years for having produced
George Dewey. Why, indeed, should
she? The state that produces such speci-

other heroic 'Green Mountain boys''
has a good deal to her credit.

The Case Of the Sootslnan.

The Case Of the ootsmnan.
That men and women should be rob
bed and treated with gross indignities
off the coast Of Newfoundland because
there is 4 strike at Liverpool seems
rather singular, but the connection be-
tween the two events is easily traced.
The seamen's union in Great Britain
is demanding higher wages. The own.
ers of the steamer Scotsman would not,
pay the higher rate. Therefore most of
its men left it at Liverpool. The sweep
ings of the docks and the cheap lodging
houses were shipped in their place
When the Scotsman went on the rocks
in the strait of Belle Isle. these wharf
rats who had taken the places Of able
bodied seamen behaved as might be ex-
pected of them. They filled themselves
with liquor and plundered, the baggage
Of passengers and took what valuables
they had on them. Eleven lives were
lost, most Of which doubtless would
have been saved had there been a COM
petent and respectable crew -
The steamship company doubtless
can be held for the valuables stolen
from the passengers or thrown into the
sea, but no financial consideration can
compensate them for the indignities
and sufferings. 1t was no fault Of the
passengers that there was a strike
among British seamen or that the com
pany refused to pay its men what they
demanded for their services, but it was
clearly the fault Of the company, which
was the custodian of the lives and ef-
fects Of the passengers on the high seas.

and incompetent. If the company was
unable to man it's ship with competent

moral right to undertake the voyage

No Romedy For y wounded Feelings.

No Remedy For Wounded Feelings.
The supreme court Of Michigan has
just handed down a decision which de-
clares that the law furnishes no remedy
for wounded feelings. 1T does not.
the decision declares, prevent offenses
against good taste. 1t does not discrim-
1nate between persons who are sensitive
and those who are not, and therefore
leaves the sensitive to suffer.
While the court regrets and marvels
at the impertinence Of people who do
not respect the feelings and sentiments
of others, it is unable to find any pre-
cept in the statutes which can legally
check such impertinence. n
The case in question was this: The
plaintiff was tho widow of man prom
inent in Michigan politics. After his
death cigar manufacturer put on the
market a cigar labeled with the name
and likeness Of the deceased politician
His widow felt hurt at this and fled
bill to enjoin the manufacturer
The supreme court has dismissed the
bill. In doing so it moralizes as follows:
AL men are not possessed of the same delicacy
Of feeling or the same consideration for the feel
ings OF others. These things depend greatly upon
the disposition and education. Some men are sen.
htiye, some brutal The former will suffer keenly
from an act or word that will not affect the lat.
ter. Manifestly the law cannot make right ot
action depend upon the intent Of the alleged
wrongdoer or upon the sensitiveness of another.
The law in most states makes hbelous
anything tending to blacken the mem
ory of one who is dead There was
nothing ibelous in the use Of the pic
ture Of this Michigan politician on a
cigar label, but as it hurt the feelings
of the widow it was in shocking bad
taste. It follows that people must learn
not to be sensitive or that the law must
be modified so as to give widows and
children rights over the names and
features of deceased husbands and par
ents which they do not now possess.
Widows and orphans have feelings
which should be respected, and there
should be statute in every state pre-.
venting and Furnishing such gross of.
fenses against good taste and decency az
are cited in Michigan

After the tea came the lichee nuts

The president on his visit to Boston
next week.
With Secretary Long and Postmaster
General Smith, who are to speak at
the Mckinley dinner on Feb. 10, these
will make five members of the cabinet
IN Boston at the same time. The only
doubt about this number is expressed
in the case of Secretary Alger, who
may be prevented from leaving Wash
ington if the situation in the Philip
pines develops any exciting features.
1t is expected that the presidential
party will arrive oveS the Shore line
early on Thursday. This will mean a
considerably shorter journey for the
stair officers who meet the presidential
party at the state line than would
have been the case if the presidential

The city hall thermometer came pret-

1t mad only advanced one degree. Last

sing about which blows through a fell

and wouldn't go past. Occasionally an
extra blast would go through, but it
would turn around and come back.
The wind came from every direc-

which way person was going, he was
pointing close into the wind.

not have to raise tine price to or 10

the necessity of making sales.

Harry T. Timn, a representative of
the Journal, was ordered to come to
Worcester from Fall River yesterday.
He was seen by a Spy man, but re-
fused to discuss the situation, but in
timated that the Journal would be sure
to look out for itself.
The retail dealers feel badly over the
statements made by President Pierce
of the Federation of Labor in an even
ing paper, which quoted Mr.. Pierce as
saying that the unions would not boy
colt the Journal as it was a union sheet
and that the dealers did not deserve
sympathy, as they all handled nom
union cigars.
Many of the dealers last night said
that the statement was false.
The labor unions, it is thought, will
not enter into the fight unless some
thing unforeseen happens.
Several quite prominent labor advo-
Gates said last night that Mr.. Pierce
did not express in their opinion the true
feelings of all union men. That he
spoke as an individual.
F. A. Easton said late last night that
he did not know what he would do
Sunday but would probably formulate
some plan today.
