Ex-U. 5. Senator Hill, in an in
terview recently, stated the differ
ence between the two political parties
of this country as mildly but as
tersely, as any other man could have
possibly done. He said:
lone party favors large standing
armies, immense public expenditures,
a government of grandeur and mag
nlticence, high protective tariff, a
British colonial policy, great comb
nations of corporate wealth and a
centralized government. The other
party favors continuance of the
plain and simple government of our
fathers, public expenditures limited
to the actual necessities of the gov
eminent, tariff taxation for public
purposes only, an army for defense
and not for conquest, and competi-
ton in business free from monopo-
listic combinations"
Of the two, says the Alexandria
Gazette, it is hard to tell how any
poor man, with the slig htest interest
IN the welfare of the country, could
hesitate a moment which to choose.

NO TIME FOR FRIENDSHIP.
That Old Fashioned Quality Is Said
to Be Out of Date.

Friendship is said to be out Of date.
We certainly have not much time to
spare nowadays. even TO reflect on
what the rush and hurry and hustle OF
modern life are costing us Now and
again. however. there is borne i'll upon
us the sad realization of the losses we
sustain as we tear and scramble
through what we now call life. And is
not one of these the power of establish
ing close friendships
1t is Il sad reflection. but the more
we think OF it the truer we shall find it
to be, that we no longer have time to
knit together those bonds of true
friendship and affection which bound
our predecessors together and made
life sweet TO them
We are always i'll a hurry. rushing
here and there. We meet and know
many people in crowds and yet never
have time to understand them. to give
them or gain from them sympathy. We
can scarcely spare an hour that Is I'M
connected with some form or enter
tainment or some business matter to
those we call our closest friends
Letter writing has been reduced 10
its least common denomination as time
presses on us heavily. and we have no
pursuits that we can share with our SO
called friends that enable us to study
each others characters. Friendship, In
fact. has become Il mere term with the

Teller Would Ignore Entirely the Clayton
Bulwer Convention.


Washington. Dec 1.-THE senate
spent almost five hours yesterday in
executive session considering the Hay
Pauncefote treaty. There were five OF
six speeches made. Morgan returned
To his former speech, celebrating some
what his position as To the effect of
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. He took
issue with Teller as TO the purport of
the first clause of that treaty. Teller
replied at some length, and elaborated
his views upon the general subject, de
claring that the United States should
construct the canal. if at all, regard
less of the English position and with
out going through the fOrmality OF
ratifying the pending treaty.
Stewart announced that he was for
the treaty without amendment. and
Money that he was against the treaty
i'll any form. He wanted the canal
built 3S much as any senator could,
he said. but he considered the pending
treaty little less than an insult to the
intelligence of the \ 'uerican people.
He had no doubt that If proper dip
lomatic efforts should be made il would
be possible to secure the complete
abrOgatiOn of the Clayton Bulwer
treaty, and that was what he wanted.
There also should be new conventions
between the United States and both
IL
lutte control of the waterway 10 this
country. He wanted no partnerships
with any country in ownership or
management of the canal when built.
The possibility of Secretary Hay
re>iguing in case the foreign relations
committee amendment to the treaty
should prevail having been alluded to.
Frye said h, was in position 10 make
official denial of that report. The sec
rotary had no such intention. Frye
announced that deny the effect of the
Clayton Bulwer treaty as much as We
may ii still is on the international rec
OrdS of this country and is given more
or less recognition by every admins
Iration that has to deal with the ques-
ton of the construction of an isthmian
canal.
Chandler asked Frye 10 make Sec
rotary Hays position with reference
TO reslEning public. but the Maine sen
atOr declined. saying that he was only
authorized 10 make the statement TO the
senate. Chandler retoTted that to do
that was equivalent to giving il 10 the
public. and the senate then lapsed into
4 discussion of the ways in which
their executive secrets get into the
newspapers.
