Editorial Afterthoughts.

Col Bryan is stlll the Theological
candidate for the Democratic nomlna-
ton in 1900.
President Mckinley will now be ac-
cused Of making political capital out Of
the triumph of our arms in Kentucky
The Jones vote drew from both Nash
and Mclean, but it did not prevent
Nash and Jones from drawing away
from Jones
Gen. Agulnaldo has not only taken
to the woods again, but he is hunting
the very tallest timber.
1. course, Mr.. Jones will remember
the golden rule to the extent of con-
graduating his successful competitor.
President Mckinley was vlndicated
in his home state, Col. Bryan retained
in Nebraska, and Mr.. Donnelly saved
his Bacon.
1t was three-cornered fight in Ohio
and the returns show that the Demo-
cratic hopes were knocked into three
cornored hat.
Whatever Mr.. Mclean may have
wagered on the Ohio election, it is
reasonably certain that he did not lose
his residence in Washington City.
Col. Bryan insists that expansion
has received its death blow in Ne
braska. However, it seems to be very
much alive in the State of Massachus-
etts.
Edward Atkinson was not obliged to
swear his vote in, but he must have
sworn a good deal when he scanned
the pages of his newspaper on We'd
nesday morning TO ascertain how his
fellow-citizens voted
1ne members of the goth Kansas ar
rived home too late to register, but the
returns from the county elections indi-
cate that they must have executed
some sort of coup d'etat, and voted the
full strength of the regiment.
There is hardly state in the Unoin
that has more money in its treasury
than the State of New Jersey. The
Democrats made a desperate effort to
secure control of the funds last Tues
day, but The people decided by a large
majority that it would not be safe to
change cashiers.
Anticipating the result in Pennsyl-
vania the Democratic papers stated
that anything above 100000 majority
for the Republican ticket would be
clear case OF theft. AS the majority
was about 10000 under that figure the
larceny must have been committed by
the other slde-Globe Democrat.

To Photograph the Falling
Weteors.

Princeton, N. j., Nov. 13.-Prof.
Charles A. Young today completed ar
rangements for photographing the
meteoric shower due here Thursday
morning between 1 and o'clock.
Prof Young has adjusted a large tel
escope in the Halstead Observatory
through which Assistant Prof Reed
Will photograph the meteors by means
of camera strapped to the lens of
the telescope Commenting on the me-
teoric shower tonight Prof. Young
said: 1T may be that part of the
shower has already fallen, and that
we have missed them. Calculation as
to the exact time of their appearance
is difficult on account of the move
ment of certain planets. We hope,
however, to obtain some good photos
of meteors which fall on Thursday
morning"

War Is Not a Just One, Nc
Matter. How it Finally
Terminates.

Rightly or wrongly, President Kru-
ger has evidently thought that the real
objects OF those who both in this
country and in South Africa, have ev-
er since the failure of the raid been
carrying on the campaign against his
government were to do away with the
independence of the Transvaal, either
by force of arms or by forcing him to
pass such laws as would in short
time allow the British Outlanders to
vote him out of existence and he has
therefore gone on arming ever since,
and finally in self defense precipitated
the present war.
Whether all the wrong lies with the
stubborn, narrow minded, but, in my
opinion, honest old President history
will determine. No man born and bred
in England that is man at all, how
ever much he may deplore this war,
can fail to have been thrilled to the
very marrow of his bones by the
splendid valor that has already been
shown by our Brlush soldiers manful-
ly doing the duty in South Africa, nor
will the generous minded withhold
tLelr need of praise from tn brave
Dutchmen who are so stubbornly
fighting for what they believe to be a
sacred cause.
But though our brave soldiers will
win honor IN this war, and though
the war may be an expedent war from
the point of view of those who believe
it will bring about an enormous in
crease of material prosperity to South
Africa in the immediate future, be-
lieve in my lnmost soul that it is not
just war, that It could have meen
avoided, that it can bring the country
no honor, and that it Will be the cause
of much future trouble. | would re-
mind DR.. Hitler tnat it is of the ut
most Importance to look upon the cri-
sis in the Transvaal not merely from
a johannesburg but from a South Az
rican point of view.
we lOSl our american colonies
through endeavoring to impose laws
which were distasteful to and were re-
sented by, not all, but a majority of
the cOlonists. The war is resented by
a majority of the colonists of South
Africa-the Dutch Afrikanders-no
one yet knows how bitterly.
According to DR.. Hitler the Dutch

in 20 years. There are now some 5OO,-
900 Of them. In 25 years they will
number million and in fifty years
will have increased to two millions.
