The peace treaty has been rati-
fed by the United States senate
aud signed by President McKin-
ley, and as soon as the same
action is taken by the Span
ish government, the question as
to the form of government best
fitted to control and benefit the
inhabitants of the Philippine
islands will be one of the i-Aport-
ant matters to be determined by
the president and congress. The
present administration is fully
competent to meet the emergency
and the people will sustain its
decision.

Fast Mail to Seattle.

The widespread public interest in
contract between Chicago and Omaha
has caused one to temporarily overv
look the similar achievement of the
Great Northern railway in establish
ing quick mail communication from
New York, via Chicago ard ST. Paul,
to- Seattle, and thence to the Orient.
The fast Pacific mail service by way OF
st. Paul to the Puget Sound country is
now quite as remarkable as that via
Omaha. to San Francisco. On January
3 the Great Northern placed in service
u fast through mail and passenger
train from Chicago to Seattle, on
which the mail pouches never once
leave the car after the transfer at ST.
Paul.
From New York to Seattle the time
by this northern route is Just four days
East of ST. Paul the mails are carried on
several roads, but west Of that city-on
"A run exceeding the eastern portion by
800 miles-the mail goes through with
out change across Eve great states on
the tracks of the Great Northern.
Forty-fve minutes are consumed in
transferring the mails in Chicago and
thirty minutes in St. Paul. After that
the Northern Oriental flyer does the
rest without pause until the Asiatic
mails go on board the steam RS of the
Japan Mail Steamship Co. Both the
Importance of Seattle as an Oriental
shipping point and the speed of the
Great Northern transcontinental mail
service make the achievement note
worthy feature of American railway
progress.
The Puget Sound cities have already
become formidable rivals of San Fran
cisco as regards the freight and pas
senger traffic for Japan, China. and
Asiatic ports. The steamer route from
Seattle to the Orint seems to be more
free from storms than that from San
Francisco, and as a large proportion Of
the Oriental exports are products of
the northwest the freight traffic has
naturally taken this course. The fact
that the full capacity of the Japan Mail
Steamship Co.'S boats is engaged as far
ahead as next August, is in itself a
striking proof OF the growing import
auce of the Oriental trade that has it's
outlet at Seattle.
For these and other reasons the fast
mail to the Pacific coast, for which the
Great Northern holds the government
contract. is fully as important as that
which daily rushes across the plains
and mountains TO San Francisco. The
Great Northern has been as much alive
TO the keen rivalry for speed and
honors as have the North western,
Rock Island. and Burlington, and it is
but fair that the achievements of its
fast daily transoontinental mail should
be included in the new chapter of rail
way advancements now being written
by the Western railroads Chicago
Tribune, Jan. IA. 1899.

Yankton Herald. The pitiful,
hypocritical whining of the sena-
torial obstructionists as to the
possible evils which may flow
from the ratification of the Span
ish treaty, is about as whimsical
as that of the girl who after

on the horrors of hell fire, was
found bathed in tears by her
pastor. why do you weep" he

of that crime, the information
which the Cuban .Iuuta received
as a result Of careful, private in
vestigations made by Its friends
in Havana was substantially this,
writes New York correspondent
to the Chicago Inter Ocean:
During General Weyler's adj
miuistration, he caused to be pro-
cured in New York quantity of
dynamite, and the Junta believes
that it can say from whom this
was procured and by what vessel
it was consigned to Havana. 1t
was placed in a mine situated
away from the guns of Moro
Castle, and its position was
known to the harbor authorities
at Havana, or to some of them.
General Blanco did not know the
precise position of this mine, and
he presumed that it would be ac-
cepted as an act of courtesy that
the Maine was requested to with
draw from its first anchorage and
anchor in a spot where the guns
of MORO could not seriously
menace her, while at the same
time the guns of the Maine could
bear upon Havana.
The Junta learned that 1t took
eight men to place this mine in
position. 1t learned, furthermore,
that on the night of the explosion
there was gathering Of some of
the minor officials of Havana,
who drank to the health of three
men whose names were mention
ed as those of the men who dis
charged the mine. The Junta
furthermore learned from friends
in Cuba that it required three men
to discharge this mine; that these
men were known and their names
were placed in the hands of the
Junta of this city. # the Innta
is not deceived it knows today
who touched the keys that dis
charged the mine.
1t was established to the entire
satisfaction of the friends of the
Junta IN Havana that neither
Blanco nor any of the higher Off
GERS representing the Spanish
government had any knowledge,
direct or indirect, of this purpose.
and further than that, that the
government of Spaiu was SINCERE
not only in its horror at the
crime, but in its feeling that
Spain had been betrayed IN this
crime by those who we're her
false friends. IF it be true that
information of this kind reached
our own administration, it may
be surmised that the fact may
have been one of the minor influ-
ences which led the administra-
ton to dismiss the Maine incident
from diplomatic consideration.
The members of the Junta then
and now believe that the plot was
hatched by a small number of
persons, some of whom were ir-
responsible officially, and some of
whom were of minor official po-
sitiou.'

Wanted-an Issue.

If there is any one who has an issue
for sale now is the time to bring it
forth. The great Democratic party is
sadly in need of such commodity,
but it must be an anti-issue or it will
not be accepted by the party of
Bryan, Jones ct al.
The Democratic managers have al
ways displayed wonderful agility in
falling over on the anti side of most
problems that come before the people.
They have been as a rule 'agin'
the Government" If there is no
anti side to an issue they will seek to
find something to which they can at
tach freedom. Free silver and free
noted hobbies. The former is now
dying a natural death, the latter is
destroyed entirely by the splendid
results of the Mckinley and Dingley
bills.
For the campaign of next year the
Democracy appear to be at sea for a
real live issue. Two autis have been
most prominently in their minds eye,
anti-imperialism or anti-expansion,
and anti-trusts. At the present rate
of progress of the war in the Philip
pines it is extremely likely that before
the Democrats can get themselves to-
gether on platform the war will be
over and the cause of anti-expansion
will receive it's death blow.
There remains, therefore, but the
one lone subject of antitrust for the
Democracy to pin their hopes to. AS
it is more than probable that the Re
publican convention will deliver it
self of a plank on the subject of
trusts and as the pushing to the
front of anti-trusts by the Democrats
will ALLEVIATE the Whitneys and other
Democratic trust magnates, upon
whose barrels they so much depend
in the campaign, it can be readily
seen what desperate condition our
Democratic friends are in.
There is another great danger con-
fronting the Democratic party. Mr..
Bryan has determined to carry his
campaign of education into the New
England States. The people OF that
thrifty manufacturing section, whose
looms and spindles have been set
running full time under the Republi-
can administration, are just spelling
for a good educational treat on the
doctrines of Democracy, aud Bryan
is just the one to give it to them.
The elections in New England were
somewhat Of a disappointment to the
anti-imperialists, who regarded that
section as peculiarly their own. II
we mistake not the elections, after
Mr.. Bryan's campaign of education
is over, will be a still more emphatic
endorsement of the policies of Presi-
dent Mckinley and the Republican
administration.
By all means, let Mr.. Bryan talk.
He generally makes votes for the Re-
publican candidates
