Augustus G. Buell. the author of the elab-
crate life Of Paul Jones that the Scribners
are publishing, though shipbuilder in the
great Cramp firm, has already written an-
other book, a history of regiment in the
Civil War. He is said to have acquired
tluency and an appreciation of the value of
a good story in newspaper work many
years ago 1t is a curious fact that he is a
lineal descendant of member of the Bon
Homme Richards crew. ~ York Tribune.
This will interest people down Isle au
Haut way, where Buell. was a summer So
journer years ago, and where he built big
cutter of the English type that later was
sold by the sheriff, and is now the property
of a summer resident of Camden and is
named Sunbeam. Buell. came to Washing
ton, ID. c., from St Louis in the early -Os
as newspaper correspondent; later became
connected with the Cramps, and now it ap-
pears is winning laurels as an author.

Very strong. The Chairman of the Demo
cratic national committee frequently
visits New York to consult Croker Oh
national affairs. Croker's support of
Bryan i'll case he would be elected would
no doubt give him control of d vast
deal of patronage. and there is now be
fore the people Of the United States the
prospect OF democratic llallollal
machine built up similar to the Tam
many machine in New York city, in
which every employee of the govern
ment will be compelled to pay heavy
tribute for maintaining the Democratic
power. That would be Crokerism carried
out to its logical ends, and the position
of the Democratic party regarding the
civil service is certainly based upon the
Tammany idea.

Gen. John NJ. Palmer, who died Sept.
oath at lis home III Illinois, was man
who had the courage of his convictions
and had the respect and confidence of
all VINO knew him. -Four years ago he
was the candidate for President of the
true Democrats, who declined to com
NIT themselves to populism and Bryan
ism: and here is what he said after
Bryan nomination this year at Kansas
City:
Imperialism is false alarm The
country is not, nor are Mr.. Mckinley
and his followers, believers in imperial
ism. Nh. Bryan is the high priest of
Popuiism. a faction that is already
strong enough to menace the best in
terests of a safe government. Between
Mckinley and Bryan there is but one
course-to vote for Mckinley.
This is in line with a recent letter from
Abram 5. Hewitt of New York, life
long Democrat, the next friend of
Samuel J. Tilden III the Presidential
contest of 1876, Mayor of New York,
member of Congress- and for years at
the head of large business enterprises
The letter was called out by a CORE
spondent, whose questions are frankly
answered by Mr.. Hewitt. For example,
when asked whether Democrat who
should vote for Mckinley and Roose-
welt could be considered false to Demo-
cratic principles, Mr.. Hewitt responds
| do not see how Democrat who is
true to the interests of Democracy can
in the present exigency take any other
course than to vote for the Republican
ticket. ] propose myself so to vote, and
] do this because / am Democrat who
feels that Organism and all that it
stands for is Numerically opposed to
the principles of the Democratic party,

The development in the Philippines
of two islands which will produce
enough rubber to supply not only this
country, but the world, will be great
thing for the United States. We now
send abroad about $50 100000 annually
for rubber. If all of this can be pro-
duced in our own dominions, besides
sending all equal amount to foreign
nations, so much the better for the
United States, and this is also further
proof that there should be no 'scuttling"
policy in the Philippines.

American diplomacy has out
shone that of Europe in dealing
with the Chinese question.
While the other powers have
groped helplessly waiting for

government is the only one
which has seemed able to see its
way. Secretary Hays master

put the state department in COM
munication with Minister Con-
ger surprised and delighted the
world. While loath 10 believe
that the message from our minis
ter is genuine, the powers are
following the example of Secre-
tary Hay and are asking for mes
sages from their representa- yes.

Kinley's answer to China's re-
quest for this country to act as
mediator Ill the settlement OF
the present difficulty: "The ad-
ninistration's answer to China
is piece of frst-class diplomacy.
We will mediate as you suggest,
but the first step in any such ar
rangemeut must be for you to
put US into communication with
our representatives in Pekin. II
is an answer to which no posi-
BILE exception can be taken by
China, and yet it puts the en-
pire in the position of having tc

A German paper states that in
determining its attitude toward
China, the United States has had
to consider the great influence OF
the Chinese population of this
country. This is in line with
the announcement of a Spanish
paper during the late war, that
the president was a Chinauan
named Magnify, and that he was
a native of Canton.
