One OF the best arguments against

the other day, sHave you noticed

send the fence around to my house
some day | will read it over and see

REGISTER LYONS REPORT.
Interesting story of the Spanish War
Bond Issue.

The annual report of Judson W. Lyons,
the register of the treasury, is a complete
review of the work of the last fiscal year
There is an interesting account of the men,
orablc ) per cent bond loan.
The register says that the history Of
the world has no parallel to the record of
the loan, either in the amount subscribed
or in the number of separate subscrip-
tions."
1t has been demonstrated that the force
of the division as 1t now stands, reinforced
as 1t is by four temporary clerks now on
duty, is not too large. The great amount
or extra work made necessary by the addi-
ton to the national loans of the 3 per cent
loan of 1S9S-and which will be of a perma-
nent nature for the next nineteen wears
thus becoming current in character-has
been promptly met.
The division is not an hour behindhand
in any of the branches of work carried on
therein. This condition of affairs is to be
attributed to the hearty manner in which
the employees have met ever demand made
upon them.
They have laboled zealously and faith
fully, not considering time when the ext
gencies of the case demanded extra work.
and these eXigencies occurred frequently.

LIBERAL RESPONSES.
government Employees ContributiDp
to the Ohio Cumpaign

ne government employees at Washington
nave been responding with unusual liner
ality to the solicitation of the Ohio ren,,bJi-
can finance committee The letter sent out
by the committee was urgent and cited the
lact Ihat the result of the Ohio election this
1al was OF great consequence to the Presi-
deht, and also pointed out that there need
be no fear of a violation of the civil service
law since those soliciting the contributions
were not government employees
lie ready and liberal response to this ap-
peal Is probably due to DEVELOPMENTS with
reference TO the civil service law during
the past year and half. For a long time
IL mas been practically impossible to get
any considerable amount of money for po-
Hucal purposes out of the government
clerks ana ofhcials, those only contributing
who were political enthusiasts or not pro-
tected by the law, and therefore anxious
Dur1nS the past ten twelve years clerks
nave been relieved from the feeling of obli-
satlon to give their money to help keep a
poltlcal party in power, and very few of
the m have given anything at all.
In the last Congress. however. there was
made determined and bold fight in antag-
oalSm TO the civil service law, and since
then there haS been modification, enlarg-
ing the excepted class by executive order
Altogether, 1t is said that there is not the
same faith IN the stability of the law that
mas been felt heretofore. Clerks, having
betn so long free from pressure for poIit-
lcai assessments may feel that they can
now AFFORD to give literally when the re-
qCtst is maze on the ground that the con-
trlputonS Will serve cause of vital i'm
porlahce TO the President. At all events
the responses to the circular have been lib
eral, and not confined to clerks claiming

nounced incorrect by E. W. S. Tingle. as
s.stant director of the Philadelphia Com
nlercial Museum. Mr.. Tingle, who was
chairman of the German-American COM
mttee, which body discussed the question
referred to, said to reporter for the As
scciated Press today:
TT was shown in committee that every
consulate is required to have publicly
posted a schedule of the exact fees, and
that cases of complaint coming from some
few consular districts are based upon con-
suIar agents misunderstanding the proper
application of their fee schedule to certain
kinds of notarial work.
Mr.. Tingie further said that several dele
gates from various German chambers OF
commerce had stated during the sessions
of the committee that they were sometimes
compelled to pay a higher fee than the
tariff required. In order that in the future
TO overCharge should be made the commit
tee as a whole suggested that each consui
be furnished with schedule to Whlch the
public shall have access.

of the subject must be with some reserve. .

is opened to inference 10y what has been
said
The administration has adopted policy
and the movement is progressing and far
advanced toward the development OF the
policy for the expansion of American trade
and influence. Our interests In the way Of
trade development are conceived TO coin

The eyes of the administration are on the

policy shall be followed which will omen I'D
this trade to the great commercial points

MAY ADD TIE TEXAS.
Possible Increase of Rear Admiral
SchIey's Force.


An increase of the South Atlantic squad
ron is possible IN view Of the unusual i'm
portance of that station in consequence Of
the war in the Transyaal. The squadron
now consists of three ships, the flagship
Chicago, undergoing repairs at the New
York navy yard, and the gunboats Mont
gomery and Wilmington, cruising in south
ern waters. 1t is expected that Rear Ad-
miral Schley, the new commander Of the
station, will sail on the Chicago for Brazil
tan waters about the middle Of next month,
and it is probable that the battle ship
Texas will be ADDED to the squadron and
will start south about the same time.
Up to this time the administration has
refrained from sending any warships to
South Africa, but there Is strong proba-
bility that international developments IN
the near future may require the mobilize
tion of a small American fleet in that quar-
ter Of the globe. In that event the duty Of
safeguarding the interests Of the United
States would naturally devolve upon Ad-
miral Schley, whose new station includes
the waters of Africa.
Admiral Schley has been invited by the
governor of Pennsylvania to visit Allegheny
on the occasion Of the presentation to that
city of one of the large cannons captured
from the Spanish navy, and the admiral is

WILL MAKE A BRIEF REPORT.
The Philippine Commission VIII Fix
the Responsibility for Hostilities.


The State Department has procured rooms
at the Arlington Hotel for the use of the
Philippine commission. being unable to find
room for the body in the already over
crowded department building. Col DENLY
and Prof. Worcester, members of the COM
mission, are spending much time in con-
sultation with leading officials of the ad-
ministration. Although the plans for the
approaching sessions of the commission
have not yet been fully outlined, and in
deed, cannot be. in advance of a formal
meeting, the indications are that the earn
est efforts Of the body will be devoted to
the preparation of short, concise prelm-
mary report, which will be submitted in
season to serve as a basis for such congress
sional legislation as may be necessary at
the approaching session. 1t is presumed
that this will set out briefly the origin of
the breach between Aguinaldo and the
American forces, fixing the responsibility
therefor with all of the weight that should
attach to the conclusion of a body of this
character. 1t is believed that the attempt
will be made in the preliminary report to
plan a detailed system of government for
the Philippines. and that question will
probably be allowed to go over until the ex-
listing inSurrecti0n has been Quelled. All of
this forecasts a return of the commission
to the Philippines, even before the eXpira-
ton of the present wet season, if the result
of the present military operations warrants
their appearance there, and circumstance
that tends to corroborate this belief is the
fact that the commission has left behind at
Manila, installed in its headquarters, the
entire force Of employees and officials, save
Secretary Macarthur, who is bringing SO
much of the records of past proceedings
are wanted here. The commission will meet
Monday.

SAN FRANCISCO. October 2s-At con-
ference Of Red Cross members, citizens and
army officers held TO consider means for
the relief of destitute soldiers, General
Shafter stated that he would recommend
the discharge Of all men in San Francisco
hereafter, instead of in Manila. They
would therefore receive their pay here in
stead of elsewhere and have chance to
procure transportation before their money
has all been spent. Many Of the soldiers
who have been discharged in Manila have
been in the habit of dropping whatever
pay they receive at the way ports before
reaching this city.
