An interesting fact in connection with the new overland train which the Burlington is about to put into service between St. Louis and Puget sound, by way of Billings, Mont. is that for nearly the entire distance of 2,5O0 miles it will run through coun- try acquired by the United States at the time of the Louisiana purchase In 1894. When Napoleon Bonaparte, oD behalf of France, sold the territory to us for about 21a cents an acre. he little dreamed, in ais endeavor to an- poy England, what a magnificent em- pire he was practically giving away.

Cheap orIrIn of Dear Hrandv

When we pay s4 a bottle for brandy we are apt to overlook the fact that 1t is made of the surplus wine, the cheap. cent-a-quart stuff that nobody but peasants can stomach. This year over s5,000.000 gallons of eIaret will be dis tiled into 2.500.00O gallons of brandy. Wine growing and stock raising are the life of France, more acres being put to vipes and grass every year.

The nomination Of William Jen-
nings Bryan is won. He has over
900 votes instructed for him, and as
it only requires 621, there is no long
er any doubt about his being the
standard-bearer of the Democratic
party. 1t requires two thirds of the
votes of Democratic convention to
nominate candidate for the Presi-
dency. AS there are $50 delegates
to the convention it takes the 62l 70
make the two.thirds for the nomina-
ton. Thirty-four States with over
700 delegates have declared for Bry-
an and he stands now as the candi-
date of the democratic party. Only
the formality of meeting in Kansas
City and casting the ballot is to be
gone through.

Mckinley and Roosevelt.

Mckinley's denomination for the
Presidency aud Roosevslt's nomins-
ton for Vice President was the work
of the Republican National Conven-
ton in session three days at Phils-
delphia last week. Each nomination
was made by reclamation, and no
surprise was sprung in either case
If this convention goes down in
history, it will be due to the total
lack of enthusiasm and absence of
applause. Never were the delibers-
tons of National political conven-
ton so perfunctory and received with
such GOODNESS and indifference by its
participants in the history of this
country as was in this case. Every
effort to stir up the feelings of the
delegates fell fat. It's no wonder.
however. BOSS" Hanna, with his in
genuity to plan such affairs, had
everything cut and dried, and showed
his iron rod on more than one coca

the peopleto believe that he was beaten

hind the throne partially broken, and
thus sidetrack any'reference to his con
trOl.of the"whole thing''in his partv's
wigwam. He outwsrdly opposed the

himself said be didn't care for the
nomination. AS a result the field
was full of Vice President aspirsnts,
and all the bombast INDUCED in by
these was for the purpose of awaken
ing enthusiasm and attracting the
attention Of the country. OF the
latter they succeeded, but failed dis
mally in the former. Hanna is a
slick article, but the democrats will
know how TO meet his tricks in the
coming campaign.
The platform is treated in another

Charlottesville

The Charlottesville Chronicle
wants the "best men" sent to the con-
stitutional convention, but thinks
that the "best men" the people can
consider for delegates are those who
will give "before they are elected,
full publicity to their views" on all
subjects likely to come before the
convention. What the people of
Virginia need, and what they should
demand, adds the Chronicle, is that
every man who consents to the use
of his name as a candidate for the
convention should publish his views
at the same time that he publishes
his consent.

1t now turns out this pay was voted

the policy of imperialism the New
York Herald asks, "What is the mat
ter with Cleveland for our next Pres
ident:" The Herald saws:
After an existence of a century
and quarter where the Government
derives its authority solely from the
consent of the governed, the United
States is turning its back upon its
own history and traditions. From q
free democracy il is In danger of be-
coming a tyrannicsl, imperialistic OIL
igarchy. The sdult Republic seems
TO be entering its second childhood as
a baby empire.
GAS a sign that it has deserted the
principles Of individual freedom upon
which 1t was founded it is at this
present moment trying 70 cram its
rule, at the bayonet's point, down the
threats of the people-Filipinos, Gu
bans and Porto Ricsns-who the
Declaration Of Independence say were
created equal. with certain unaliena.
ble rights, among which are life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
As far as the Filipinos are con-
cerned the United States is doing its
'damnedest' to ALLEVIATE all three of
these 'unalienable rights Their lives
have been taken, they have been rob
bed of their liberty, and instead of
pursuing happiness they are being
pursued ike wild beasts into the saw.
age interior of their native islands.
and all because they believed, like
the American colonists Of 1916, that
they were justified in trying so insti-
tute a new government in conformity
with their Legitimate desires and
needs when the old one imposed upon
them by Spain had become intolera-
bic.
1T is about time to face the situa-
ton squarely. The United States
cannot, will not, allow the war to
continue much longer
"In the fret place, it does not pay.
Eight or nine hundred thousand dol
lars day for military and naval ex-
pendlture is more than the Job of
grating the American Constitution
upon the Philippine Islands is worth.
Ia the second place, the national pas
sion for freedom ia the United States
Is violently opposed to the forced sub
Iugation Of people, be they MALAY
or BOer, that have backbone enough
to fight for their independence"
The article concludes as follows:
"Mr. Cleveland is Just such man.
His statesmanlike presciance and de-
termined will kept the country from
taking over Spain's troubles for two
years. 1t was from no lack of cour.
age. Mr.. Cleveland, in fact, proved
this, for he is the only American
President who eyer went fearlessly
into the British lions den and twist.
ed its tall as he did over the Vene-
Zueian question. In both the British
and Spanish difficulties he showed
sound judgment, shrewd common
sense, firmness and breadth of view.
He refused to bully the weak or to
cringe TO the strong. lie was the
rudder of the government, not the
fgurehead.
"This is why the Herald asks,
What is the matter with Mr., Cleve-
lana for our next PRESIDENT"
