The December numbe, Of The De-

Der, and with its beautiful new coy
er md innumerable illustrations is
certainly one Of the most artistic
magazines ever sent out. Aside from
being the leading fashion publica-
ton, it contains much choice literary
matter from the pens of well-known
authors. The household and social
discussions are ably dealt with and
are of real worth. The delightfully."-
humorous fantasia Over the Plum

thoroughly witty and enjoyable. A
very clever and instructive article by

Ing that every day on which the sun
sets until the establishment OF the
republic Is an Injury TO the Cubans.
Every reasonable person who has
been In Cuba, however, knows that
the Cuhans are not yet ready for

who has investigated the matter on
the ground, and who was relied ON to
give great aid to the antl-anne Nation

an injury to Cuba at the present

the annexation side will have a ma.

An industrial census for 1899,
taken by the American Protective
Tariff league, shows that under the
Dingley tariff law there has been a
gain Of nearly 40 per cent in the
amount of American labor employed,
a gain OF "a per cent in the money
paid to wage-earners, and gain OF
OF nearly III per cent In the average
American wage rate per capita. Re.
turns were received from 1857 EN-
ployers Of labor, in thirty-nine lines
OF industry, located in forty-six
states and territori s, so that the
census IS fairly representative OF all
sections of the country. In fact, the
beneficial effects of Republican tariff
legislation are so much in evidence
that no Democrat mentions free
trade. Chicago Inter-Ocean.

The political sentiment of the
United States at this time is decis
lively Republican. Any one can &c
over the list Of states and see that
the Republicans hold more than In
1896. Three general elections have
taken place since that year and the
net result is strengthened Republi.
can position. The four states gained
are Kansas, Washington, South Da
kota and Wyoming. Kentucky
which divided its electoral vote in
1896, is more strongly Republican
now than it was then. The single
state regalned by the Democrats is
Maryland, and this was managed
only by platform silent on silver
and the rest OF the Chicago platform.
Compared with 1895 the Republican
gain of electoral votes is twenty-five,
the loss eight. This change would
make the electoral college stand Re-
publican 2S5. Democratic 1872. 1t is
as close an estimate in actual figures
as can be made. These are accom-
plished facts. Through three social
ed of years the opposition has done
it's utmost to turn the political tide.
But it runs more powerfully than
ever. The Democratic party itself
has crumblec in an attempt to de-
velop weak spot in the Republican
lines.

England has agreed to the modus
vivendi on the Alaska boundary
question. The United States did not
insist on getting all the territory to
which 1t is entitled, but this Is not
a final settlement. The modus vi
vendi, OF course, will make a provis-
ional adjustment merely. The nego-
tiations will be continued, and a
settlement will ultimately be reach
ed which will recognize all the United
States claim and be satisfactory to
the country There need be no
doubt on this point. The American
position in this controversy is so
reasonable that England will be won
over to its recognition eventually,
and all disputes henceforth will he
averted. This temporary adjustment
removes, for the time, an irritating
issue, and gives an assurance that
the full American claim will soon lie
satisfied. --Globe-D Democrat.

which comes to us as result OF the

entered into between the United
States, England and Germany In Sa-

1t, which still has to go before the
