The British losses in Africa in
the last ninety days are officially
reported at over 1000 men, killed,
wounded and captured. This is
many times as great as the entire
losses of the United States in the
eighteen months since the war
with Spain began and was followed
by that in the Philippines. Yet
there is still found, occasionally, a
man with the iron nerve to continue
to criticize the conduct of our war.

The public can have little respect
for the Presidential candidate who
spent an entire campaign on the
stump urging people to vote for
himself, and they must have less
for one who spent an entire four
years following that failure in ask
ing to be given a second trial.
There is feeling that in a position
OF this dignity the office should
seek the man, or at least that the
man is hardly justified in making
a five years personal campaign in
his own behalf.

increased their importations of raw
material for use in manufacturing
33 per cent. over the busy year Of

year under the Wilson law, while
exports of manufactures increased

Ex-Governor Churchill of Ar

emphatically for expansion, and
warned the Democratic party, to
which he belongs, that it is folly to
war against an accomplished fact.
II am a loyal Democrat" he said,
"but an American citizen, and
stand by the flag and the soldier
who is fighting for it. Expansion
is a Democratic doctrine and we
'2anMot honorably recede from it.
I do not see for my life how any
Southern man can take any posi-
ton other than for expansion.

is simply used to scare the ignorant.

that he can find no evidence to

Olmsted Argues for Sound noney.

Representative M. f. Olmsted,
of Dauphin district, delivered in
Congress an able speech on the
currency bill, and was listened to
with marked attention. The fol-
lowing are some of the strong
points he made in support of the
measure:
"Those who would tamper with
the currency or render it's condition
uncertain do not take into con-
sideration the potent influence of
credit. Whatever impairs the in
tegrity of nation, of corporation
or of an individual, impairs it's
credit; whatever impairs credit
and weakens confidence lessons
commerce; and whatever lessons
commerce results injuriously to all
the people," declared Mr.. Olmsted.
He then drew Il comparison of the
industrial condition of the country
following the election of President
Cleveland in 1892 and the present
era of prosperity under Republi-
can administration.
WORK IN PLENTY FOR ALL
Mr.. Olmstead read from advance
sheets of the annual report of Fac
tory Inspector Campbell, of Penn
sylvania, that 1928, ,O0S more per-
sons were employed in 1899 than
in 1896; 293, 3,915 more persons were
employed in 1899 than in 1897;
1S2, ,2O7 more persons were en-
ployed than in 1898, and if the
demand for skilled workers and
laborers could be supplied, the in
crease would be greater.
II have just read" he con-
tinued that in certain parts of
Philadelphia there is great activity
in real estate, caused by the fact
that workingmen who have hereto
fore been content to live in humble
rented tenements, are, as a result
of improved conditions, beginning
to purchase homes for themselves. )"
Mr.. Olmsted also spoke of the
increase in money in circulation,
since the defeat of Bryan, from
sol. 10 in 1896 to S25 per capita in
1899, the highest ever known.
CONFIDENCE IS RESTORED.
In answer to Mr.. Newlands'
(Nev.) argument that the present
prosperity was due to large crops,
Mr.. Olmsted said: but nature is
not entitled to all the credit for
putting at work 32S,00O ad-
ditional factory hands in Pennsyl-
vania. Nature is not wholly re-
sponsible for enabling the great
Pennsylvania Steel Company at
my home, which went into bank
ruptcy under a Democratic adj
ministration, to pay out $780,
O47.64 in wages to employees in
| 1899. The restored confidence in
proper protection to American
labor and in the maintenance of
the integrity of our currency and
Of the governments S obligations and
Of private obligations has had even
more to do with it. The Federal
government borrowed money read
lily at 3 per cent, i'll the midst OF
war with foreign nation, while
the preceding Democratic admins
tration paid 4 per cent. in a time
Of profound peace. "
Mr.. Olmsted declared that it was
necessary, however, to enact legis-
lation that would make it impos-
sible for President or Secretary
Of the Treasury, without action by
Congress, to change from the gold
standard basis.

WHY HE LIKES MUSIC.
A Physician Whose Reputation ms a
Critic Was Blasted.


There's physician in Baltimore who
adOres music. His taste, to be sure,
runs rather to "Old Black joe" "Su-
wannee River" and such classics. but
still any sort of music will do, and he
listens to it all ecstatically and with a
properly intelligent look on his face.
1t was therefore believed that he had
fine taste for harmony, and his repu-
tation as a critic was established and
grew apace as regulations will. good or
bad
The other evening as his daughter
approached the house In which this
physician lived she heard the strains
of Home. Sweet Home" proceeding
from the library.
"Father's at it again." she said to
herself softly. Il wonder who he has
coerced into playing for him now?'
A glance disclosed the fact that he
had bribed three street musicians. two
viOlinists and a harpist into giving
him a private recital. They finished
the air just as the young woman enter
ed, and the physician turned to her
WIN a ONdiliillS ldtt. hat Nearer,
My God, to Me- is beautiful thing
isn't it?" he asked
1t was the first time he had commit
ted himself on the subject of tunes. -
and his glory began to diminish from
that moment. for his daughter told the
incident as what she considered an ex-
cellent joke.
Now the worthy man says that he
likes music solely as an incentive to
thought and listens to ii when he wish
es to solve some knOtty problem of ar
terry or bones. just as those who suffer
from insomnia go to church and listen
to the sermon to be put to sleep.-Balti

Evidence multiplies that the whole
course of studies in the public schools
of this country will have to be revised
and that return to first principles is
necessary. The fad propaganda has
assumed the proportions of acute
mania. The reaction is going to bring
us back to the proposition that reading
writing and arithmetic are the studies
essential to a public school and that
anything else is surplusage.

One of the dangers that threaten
this country is the disinclination of its
people to till the ground. From the
looks of things there will be no far
mers within fifty years. The farmers
son is not content to be farmer. He
must be a professional man or, in any
event, he must have some occupation
in the city. The American farmer is
disappearing. Who is to raise food for
this country half century hence?

does today. Young men paid heavy
premiums to get in as apprentices un-

would compare favorably in general
intelligence with the graduates of our
modern universities.
