government under the sovereignty of
the United States. In no other way,
gentlemen can we give peace to the ma
tlonal conscience, or peace to the
world"
In another place speaking in a more
serious vein he said:
"We have now before US some grave
problems in government, problems
that command not only for the presi-
dent but for all the people steady and
sober judgment, problems not to be
settled by u party or another, but by
all the people; problems wider than
party or section; problems that are ma
tional, and which this people must set
tie for right and justice, following the
plain path of duty. We are in the
Philippines. Our flag is there. Our
boys in blue are there. They are not
there for conquest. They are not there
for dominion. They are not there for
exploitation. They r there because
in the providence of God, who moves
mysteriously, the great archipelago
has been placed in the hands of
the American people. When Dewey
sank the ships in Manila, as he
was ordered to do, it was not to cap
lure ULe ullIPkIJlCS. III WAS 10 ueS-
troy the Spanish fleet, the fleet of the
war, and we thought that the quickest
power of Spain to make any, so we
sent Dewey and the islands came to
us. 1t was nc responsibility we sought.
but it was a responsibility put upon
us. Will the American people shirk
it? Cries of "No.'') Have the Ameri-
can people aver been known to run
away from IA great high moral duty?
Cries of "No."0 Our flag is there. "a
voice-"It will stay there, too.'') Not
as the symbol of oppression. not as the
token of tyranny, not as the emblem
of enslavement, but IL flag is there
as our flag is here. representing liberty,
humanity and civilization There wa
no cloud in Dewey's victory, and there
will he no doubt or hesitation in pre-
serving it,"
We wish we had room to quote more
We might give columns of his remarks
at various places. But contrast this
style of speaking with the usual adj
dress of the pop orator and it requires
no great insight to see which will in
%terest the thoughtful voter and cause
him to consider matters as they are.
Let a pop orator get wound up and as
Nathaniel Lee said two centuries ago,
she will talk-good gods! how he will
talk II and what does he say, simply
imperialism" standing army" tour
lost liberties,' and all sorts of foolish
ness that will not bear any thought or
consideration without vanishing away
like the mouthings of any common
scold aud fault finder. And if they are
SO wild and inconsistent in their talk
they are still worse, if possible, intheir
acts. This has been proven in so many
cases that it is best not to give them
any opportunity to belittle or disgrace
their country. We think the people of
South Dakota have already had enough
of populism aud crankism and that
they will not vote to put the state still
more into the hands of that crowd.7

During the dark days of the countryi in
1~sG1-1s65 the foes of the country who
were doing all in there power to des-
troy the government were kept up
and encouraged by the constant hope
that their sympathizers in the north
the Copperheads-would succeed in
the elections. Aguinaldo and his
hords of barbarians are NOW lookingto
the same place for comfort and en-
couragement and strange to say is
looking to the same party. 1t is anoth-
err case of history repeating itself. IN
less we are very much mistaken
Aguinaldo will fare the same in 1899 as

Proper Cloves in Sumner.

Just n word in general about gloves,
in summer. We are TO see revival of
fabric gloves, and very smart women are
ordering at. the best shops black silk
ones with clasps just like the kid gloves.
Then there are Isle thread in grays, tans
and white, with narrow black stitching,
which are the correct thing for wear
with shirtwaists. How sensible and COM
Portable we shall all feel with them, for
on the street, in town or travelling to
and from railway trains it is simply alb
surd to go without gloves, as many wom-
ell tried to do last season to the ruination
of their well-kept nails.
Probably it has never occurred to you
how incomplete the summer girl who dan
giles q soiled pair of kid gloves in one
hand looks on hot day. This one dis
cordant note in her otherwise immaculate
gowning can now be obviated by the
wearing of the fresh, clean thread or silk
gloves in imitation Of her fashionable sis
ter who orders them sent to her country
address by the dozen.

RuSSia's Financial Straits,

A great deal of interest is aroused in
both political and financial circles by the
appeal for assistance now being made by
Russia in the London money arket
For many years to come Russia will re-
quire large financial resources to carry
out her vast plans for railway ievclop-
ment in China, Persia and Siberia Tn
less London comes to the help of NJ, dc
Wittp. the Russian minister of finance
the building of these railways, which
bulk so largely in the scarcmOnger's
eyes, is likely to be postponed for an in
definite period. 1t seems odd that Russia
should come to London to borrow money
for the advancement of schemes which
are openly designed to thwart the politi-
cal and commercial interests of England
and the United States in the Far East.
1t is unusual, to say the least Of it, to
invite prospective victims to subscribe
for the expenses Of their own interment.
The only ground on which the application
is to be justified is the cosmopolitan char
acter of modern finance, which knows
neither country nor patriotism. Every
shilling subscribed in England or Amer
lea for the building of Kussia's strategic.
lines in Asia will be used against them.
The spirit in which that portion of the
Russian government which is hostile to
Anglo-Saxon development administers
the affairs of the interior Of the empire
and will administer the Far East, il
shown in the arrest and exile of thou
sands of students, and in the closing Of
nearly all the principal universities and
colleges in Russia. -AndreW White, in

Millions of Dollars Await Decision
on the Letter CO.,

The Fair will case was one of the
greatest forgeries ever attempted in this
country, involving an estate of 500 OO.-
600. A complete will, alleged to have
been written by Fair, was in dispute.
The forger was evidently familiar with
Fairs writing and must have had nu-
merous specimens of the dead million
aires hand to guide his work. Pictorial
ly he produced a very good imitation
Of Fair $ style; but when one comes
to examine the forged paper in detail it
is found to be full of little discrepancies.
If all other evidence of forgery were
lacking, however, there is one letter
which was sufficient to overturn the
claims, of the contestants and to prove
letter "a i'll the word bequeathe. The
forger copied the "be'' at the beginning
Of the word from Fairs writing. When
he came to tile 60 he evidently had no
genuine specimen to go by. He halted
over the letter, for there is a distinct
break between it and the preceding one,
and ended by making conventional "a"
remainder of the word. The same )ct-
ter occurs thirteen times in the course of
the will and always in the same FORM
Now it happened that Fair habituals
wrote the letter e. in peculiar man
ner. 1t was very different from the "a
of the forged Will. Fair could never have
written that letter in the form in which
it~uppeared repeatedly in the forged docu-
ment. The contrast is made all the more
startling by the close resemblance in the
remaining letters of the word. There
were other characteristic Emergencies
which led inevitably to the conclusion
that the so-called will was forgery, but
the forger's lapse in the matter of that
90 alone was enough to settle the fate
Of twenty million, --Danicl T.. Ames in
