vote was compared. The plurality OF
Judge Nash exceeds that Of President
Mckinley in 1896. and is almost double
that OF Gov. Bushnell in 1897. The
Jones vote. although the largest ever
polled for a third candidate, is not re-

wild aud uncouth screed of Mister
Johnson" from Indiana, he declared
that if such talk had been INDUCED in
at Manila as had characterized some of
the speeches on the floor of congress the
previous day, the speakers would have
been court martialed and shot. Mr..
Cannon was right; and not only the
speeches of such men as Johnson, of
Indiana. but of Senators Hoar and Cor
man come fairly under the charge of
treason. These men from their seats
in the national legislature have beer
literately openly aiding and abetting the
enemies of their country, enemies who
would massacre every American in the
Philippines if they could, and whose
rebellion against the lawful authority of
the United States, is encouraged by the
utterances of the alleged statesmen men
toned above. If this sort of talk con
tinues, the president will be expected to
take some decided steps to stop it.

The BRAY Of the ASS.

The Democratic opposition in con
gress does not yield any in its attempt
to injure the regular army, notwith-
standing the lesson taught at Santiago,
that on the outbreak of a war in which
this country is a party, it is the regular
soldier who is to be depended upon, for it
takes six months to break in volunteer
organizations sufficiently for them to be
relied upon as much as regular troops.
The volunteers in the Philippines are
now seasoned soldiers, and troops to be
relied upon in any emergency. But
they have been in the service for nearly
a year. have been under constant train
ing, and their heads are clear, and their
grasp of military requirements is up to
the regular standard. But should the
United States engage in war with
another nation in the course of the en-
suing 10 or 10 years, the experience of
the recent war in regard to the trouble
and time required to break in militia
and volunteers, would have to be gone
all over again. The Democratic party
knows this well enough. But the slogan
of the party is to do anything to worry
and embarrass the administration. in
vain hopes of making points with the
public. However, the bray of
the ass is plain enough from beneath
the lions skin, and the discerning pub
lie will not be laid astray. If there is
any angular, queer, unreasonable, I'M
seasonable, unnatural idioticism or
quirk in any national or political issue,
every time to embosom such an issue, |
and make it it's own.

doned, for it would not work. Some
people like Mr.. Engey may object to
the law of one days rest in seven, but
their objections carry neither convic-
ton or weight of influence; and while
the prominence of directors in the COM
munity may give them public attention
for a time. their efforts to break down
this. one of the most cherished of Amer
lean institutions, and substitute the
free and easy, rollicking, carousing
European Sunday, will not meet with
any encouraging response. Mr.. Eng
ley's idea of Sunday may be ''the thing"
in Creole, Colo. where he comes from,
but the manners of that mining camp
are not likely to be accepted by the re-
mainder of the state or the country at
large with unanimity. because Repre-
sentative Eugene Engley happens to APP

The Mount Vernon Ladies' Associa-
ton, founded in 1854, has accomplished
a good work in the restoration of Wash
ington's home and the surrounding
grounds with fidelity to nature, and his
toric articles have been restored. The
home of Washington has, in this restora-
ton, become more than ever, the shrine
of liberty loving pilgrims from home and
foreign lands. and his tomb is ~religlously
cared for by women who love and revere
his memory. The marble sarcophagus
can be seen from without the tomb rail
ing, but the great form within is gone to
dust. The coffin was opened in 1885 by
a carpenter making repairs about the
premises, and he afterwards stated that
the face was exactly as he had seen it in
Stewards famous painting. But the
view was hardly more than a glimpse,
as on exposure to the air, the body
crumbled and Immediately went to
pieces. At least that is the story.

General Miles does not appear to be
losing any sleep over the investigation

him regarding the meat furnished the
soldiers in Cuba last summer. So far
the evidence given the investigators has
substantiated every thing the general
has said, and another report is going
the rounds of the eastern papers that
Secretary Alger will resign from the
cabinet. But the people of the country
have been disappointed so many times
by these resignation rumors, that they

one until a new secretary takes charge

The Continental Sunday.

EX-Attorney General Eugene Engly
of Colorado, now a member of the lower
house of the state legislature, has created
something of a sensation by attempting
to secure the passage OF a measure
making Sunday a legal holiday, and a
day for rest, recreation and amuse-
ment." His performance has brought
down upon his head caustic criticisms
from various parts of the country, and
the condensed sentiment of this criti-
cism is epigrammatically expressed in
the report of the minority of the judi
ciarv committee of the house to which
the bill was referred. The minority is
adverse to the measur on the grounds
that it is against the general and social
welfare of the people; it would destroy
the value of the Sabbath as a day of
rest; it is against the interest of the
laboring masses, as it tends to rob them
of their day of rest; the opening stores
and workshops, and in continuing the
weeks toll; it would have a malignant
influence on society, and encourage
license and immortality; the result of the
holiday Sunday in other lands has been
detrimental to the general welfare, the
moral and physical condition and pros
perity of the people. The report goes
IN to show that the physical well being
of the people i%ustifies the legal protec-
ton of a day of rest, and their moral
welfare iustifies guarding a day OF wor-
ship.
Within the last few years there have
been numerous protests from labor
unions against the establishment of the
so-called Continental Sunday in the
United States, as tending to p%rolong the
regular operations of the week through
the Sabbath, thus destroying the day Of
rest; and actors associations have been
wen more pronounced in their opposi-
ton to ENGRAVING the Continental Sun
day into American institutions, as the
double duty they are now called upon
to do on Saturdays and holidays, would
be insisted upon by managers, on Sun
days, If that day were made a legal
holiday. And in general, in order that
a part of the community might spend
the day in pleasure and hilarity, a very
fair sized part of the same community
would be forced to endure a long day, a
siege of labor in ministering to the de-
mands of pleasure seekers. One days
rest in seven from all secular labor and
toll is q natural and divine provision for
mental and physical recuperation, and
violation of that law is sure to be fol-
lowed by distressing consequences.

carrying a carpetbag of the vintage of
1S49. He came up to the desk in an
a%pologetic sort of way and cautiously
asked me if he could get a place to
hang out for the night.
81 assured him he could and, turn
ing the register around, requested him
to register.
What fer?' he asked suspiciously.
81 informed him that it was custom
airy for all guests to register upon their
arrival, and at last l succeeded in con-
vincing him that I was not trying to
get his name for any base purpose. He
took the pen gingerly in his fingers and
had laboriously succeeded in getting
half of his name down, when he sud
denly dropped the pen and demanded
what the tax would be. 7 answered,

Putting his carpetbag on the floor,
and anchoring it there with one foot,
he drew out of his trousers pocket an
ancient looking wallet, extracted a
greasy 81 bill and handed it over with
the remark that it was pretty steep.

writing his name on the register l
handed him over to the bellboy with
instructions to see that the old mar

him.
"About noon the next day a cham
bermaid sent down word that the old
