Not wnIIng to Accept the Consequence
From President McKiDeys letter Of accept
ancal

Not willing to Accept the Consequences.
From President McKiDley's letter OF accept.
anc..l
There were those who two years ago
we're rushing us ON to war with Spain who
are unwilling now to accept its clear con-
sequence, as there are those among us who
advocated the ratification of the treaty Of
peace, but now protest against its oblga-
tions. Nations which 60 to war must be
prepared to accept its resultant obligations,
and when they make treaties must keep
them.
Those who profess to distrust the liberal
and honorable purposes Of the administTa-
ton in its treatment of the Philippines
are not justified. Imperialism has no
place in It's creed or conduct. Freedom is
a rock upon which the Republican party
was builded and now rests. Liberty is
the great Republican doctrine for which
the people went to war, and for which a
million lives were offered and billions of
dollars were expended to make 1t lawful
legacy of all without the consent Of mas
ter or slave. There is a strain of ill-con-
cealed hypocrisy in the anxiety to extend
the constitutional guarantees to the peo-
pie of the Philippines, while their nullifi-
cation is openly advocated at home. Our
opponents may dlstrust themselves, but
they have no right to discredit the good
faith and patriotism of the majority of the
people, who are opposed to them; they
may fear the worst form Of Imperialism
with the helpless Filiplnos in their hands,
but il they do 1t is because they have part
ed With the spirit and faith OF the fathers
and have lost the virility Of the founders
of the party which they profess to repre-

QUESTION OF FAILURES.
r.. G. Dun q Co. Discuss Their Effect
UDOn HUSineSs


NEW YORK, July 13.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say:
IF the great increase in failures to
$lOO,57O134 in the first half of 1900 against
S49, 664,6 61 last year, and especially to
S43,S93,Ol9 in the second quarter, against
21,695, 635 last year, gave no occasion for
diligent search, failure returns will be
worth nothing. But today it is shown
that thirty banking failures for $25, 1872, 6S2,
against thirty last year for $7,6O1, 723, ac-
counts for much Of the difference; that
go brokerage and real estate failures for
so, l22, 346, against Jas last year for only
$2,32S,2l5 accounted for another part and
that in building and lumber working and
trade other large failures distinctly con-
nected with those in real estate explain
much more Of the difference between
manufacturing and trade failures last
year and this.
I'm these and much less important
changes in a few other lines are seen
substantially all the commercial disasters
In prices last year, followed by weary
but largely successful efforts during the
past few months to get back to normal
state of business. When this is seen
and the remarkable steadiness in number
and size of the great majority of failures
not for exceptional amounts there ap-
pears ground for especial satisfaction
that business has been on the whole so
soundly conducted under conditions of
unusual danger"

No gold has been shipped from here to
Europe since June q, the total exports
for that month from America having
been $4S15,000, most of which ($3,5O0,0OO)
went to Germany. Berlin was at that
time in financial straights, its money
market ruling at SIS per cent and 3 per
cent, and it's exchange on London having
fallen considerably. The market has cas-
ed since then, as today's reduction of II
per cent in the Imperial Bank Of Ger
many's official rate shows But Paris eX-
change on London, which in June stood
at % francs 1213 centimes to the pound
sterling, about the usual point when gold
comes to London, has fallen centimes
further, and it is estimated that on "a
triangular operation" this very low Paris
rate would offset the low rate of New
York exchange, as the special induce
ments offered by Berlin did last month.
The last gold shipment to Germany was
arranged with sterling at $4.S678, or 1sc
above today's rate.

and hot winds in the western portion
Of the corn belt have furnished material

during the week. The Chinese troubles

In fact, the market, though a narrow
and at times very dull one, has shown
g. remarkable degree of underlying
strength, and the chief activity was in
connection with the advances of several
prominent trading stocks, like Union Pa
cine, Baltimore & Ohio common, Illinois
Central, Northwestern and Sugar. In
the case of the two first mentioned Sc
curities the movements were based on re-
newed reports of favorable action in con-
nection with dividends the expectation
being that both stocks will be placed on
per cent basis. The declaration of a

STATE PROFITS BY II

SCHEME HELPS MINNIE.

SCHEME HELPS MINNIE.
State Auditor Dunn, at land Gale held
at Grand Rapids July II, sold a tract of
land on the Big Fork river, near Sturgeon
Falls, for $36.66 per acre. The land is Sit
uated in town 1855, range rs, section Sc,
and is eighty miles north Of the terminus
of the Brainerd & Northern railroad. On
the entire tract of 600 acres there are
but few pine trees, although the land is
good agricultural land, but very inaccessi-
BILE. Tams Bixby, Harris Richardson
and syndicate of Twin City men bid in
the land, paying the state, in round fig
ures, $23, 900 for the land, advancing $4,000
in cash to bind the deal. Just what
shrewd politicians like Bixby and Rich
ardson should want with a section of des-
olate land so far remote from civilization
is best explained through the report that
the Brainerd & Northern Minnesota is to
build a branch line to Rainy lake, tap
ping the country tributary and opening
up a large area that has future as an
agricultural locality But BiXby and
Richardson have a small map, showing
town lots, and the town, which has not
been named, because there is nothing
but raspberry bushes and brush to desig
nate it from the surrounding country,
will have a first-class hotel, an opera
house, general stores, public buildings and
a few saloons. The town will be boom
! ed" as health resort, With tame Indians
in the vicinity to guide travellers through
| the primeval forest.
The raspberry bushes and the brush
| came high, but the Bixby- Richardson
syndicate had to have it, even if the
state auditor did drive hard bargain
for the land. The minimum price at
which the auditor can sell land is S. per
acre, and surely the land Itself was not
worth more, but its position of vantage
on the surveyed route Of the Brainerd e.
Northern Minnesota extension makes it
the probable future site of a second Be
midi. The road will pass right through
the town, indeed 1t will be a central point
between Brainerd and the Canadian boun-
dairy. Very few settlers have penetrated
this far into the forest of Beltrami coun-
ty, but the new railroad will make the
country accessible. The price paid is the
largest ever paid for so remote a piece
Of land that is not valuable for it's tim
