The Spanish war was a righteous
war--a war for humanity. It was the
peoples war and was forced by the
people upon the unwilling administra-

sentiment and encouraged only in
Wall street.

While Gov. Altgeld hardly speaks by

the responsibility of the railroads for

ENGLISH ALARMED.

ENGLlsi JKONM4SEENS ALA ARMED.
If the well founded scare in England
against the entertainments of Ameri-
can iron and steel continues to grow,
we may yet have Merry England de-
handing protection against the cheap
and nasty iron of America.
Some startling admissions concern
ing American competition were made
by Sir John Jenkins, president OF the
British Iron Trade Association, at a
recent meeting of that body.
He said that hematite iron and Bes-
semer could be produced by American
furnaces at So ton less than in Eng
land The barrier, he declared, that
afforded any protection whatever for
England against extensive importation
of American steel and iron was the
cost of transporting these fabrics 500
miles over land and 5000 over sea.
Sir Henry Vincent, at the same meet
ing, stated that the reason the British
iron trade was as active as it is was
due in great part TO the demands of
Government naval construction. The
trade had occasion to consider how
they could keep their machinery en-
ployed when orders of the Admiralty
were filled.
1t developed at a later stage of the
discussion that the ability of the Unit
ed States to compete with Great Brit
ain was due largely to the high freight
rates on British railroads and to the
superiority of American appliances.
In fact, it seems that the ironmasters
of Great Britain are more concerned
about American competition in Eng
land than about the same competition
in Japan, Russia, India, Australia and
Africa. In these countries they simp-
ly can't touch American iron and steel
prices. 1t is really fully as much as
they can do to keep Uncle Sam out of
their own tight little home market.
No wonder they are in state of mental
depression. The American manufac-
turing and commercial giant is abroad
and he is after everything in sight.

The Prime Minister Won.

A former governor of the Australian
colonies tells of a curious experience
he once had with long-headed prime
minister. The latter brought in a cer~
tain measure, calculated to make the
government popular with the working
classes, although it affected foreien
power SO much that representations
were made to the imperial authorities
on the subject. "A dispatch was accord
ingly sent out to the governor TO veto
the bill. He sent for the premier. "I'm
sorry, old man." said his excellency.
"but I've just got orders from home.

Used His Brains.

Some time ago Il brakeman on the
Baltimore & Ohio Rail Road used his
brains and saved a passenger train
from running into two derailed cars.
The Company sent him check for $50
and posted bulletin complimenting
him for his quickness of thought.
A few days later. Engineer John
Hagerty was oiling his engie at Con-
nellsville. While waiting for the pas
sengers to alight. He heard another
train coming. and believed that it was
not under proper control. He sprang
into his cab. opened the throttle ano
started his train. The other engine
struck the rear car, but it was not a
hard blow and Hagerty's promptness
saved ten or a dozen lives.
The Company has ordered hand
some gold watch, suitably inscribed,
and a gold chain for Engineer Hagerty,
as Il reward for his devotion to duty
and using his brains in time of emcr-
gency.

Lets get Peter to take her."
Glen jumped from his chair and
slapped Tom roundly on the shoulder,
SO elated was he over his bright idea;
then both young men laughed heartily
and wondered that they had not sooner
thought of so easy way out of their
dilemma.
It was a difficult situation. The
young men had holly resented scold-
ing. over some boyish escapade from
their Specials" Toms cousin Lottie
and Clem's sister Mary. The girls
vowed never to speak to them again
and by finding ii. convenient to visit
much away from home, and eschewing
evening church and festivities had
In the meantime the Kings had
moved into the place, and just to show
the girls that they were not the only
ones in town, both young men had
taken to calling on Kittie. She was
lively, pretty girl, and it was pleas
ant place to visit, and so it had gone
on until they had established quite all
intimacy, and without either actually
inviting her, they had committed
themselves to taking her to the APP
preaching county fair, by talking to
her of getting up a party, in which
she was included, to so in large
wagon. Then came the reconciliation
and now they wanted to go as usual
in their buggies with Name and Lot

of what to do about Kittie.
Il suppose you'll tell Pete and get
him to take Kittie off our hands," said
Tom.
