standard and high protective tariff poll.
cies of the Republican party.
Brethren" said the speaker, you
must preserve the Afro-Americsn. He
Is power In this country and to lose
his influence and support means the
destruction OF the Republican party.
Compare the treatment Of the colored
man by the two parties. In the south
the colored voter is being degraded
worse each year by the Democrats
The Republican party, especially Presi.
dent Mckinley, has been very kind to
the colored man. He has appointed
them to positions of responsibility. 1t
is with pleasure that we note the ap-
pointment Of a Reverend colored gen.
tleman from Xenia, O., as chaplain in
the regular army.
The speaker concluded by calling all
colored men traitors who do not vote
the straight Republican ticket.
Ex-Treasurer L. @. Miles was the
next speaker. If there is any person
who knows how to jolly the colored
voter, it's Mr.. Miles. He made a
spread eagle speech. His eloquence
was sublime, while his gestures were
SO vehement at times that he had the
greatest difficulty in keeping on his
cuffs. He started out by charging the
Democrats with throwing bricks,
stones and mud at the Republican
leaders. Then he switched and de.
nounced Mr.. Bryan. He charged him
with making a failure of everything
he undertook. He said Bryan failed
as newspaper man, as Congressman !,
as candidate for President, and that
he was dismal failure as a Colonel
in the army. Mr.. Miles was very care
full, however, not to say anything about
the great success Gen. Dick made as
colonel Neither did he say any
thing about the great failures of Mr..
Mckinley. Teddy Roosevelt was
lauded as hero. He had made a
great success In everything he un-
dertook, except prosecuting the New
York ice trust. Mr.. Miles waved the
old bloody shirt for 90 minutes. He
repeated the oft told tale that the col
ored men were set free, and that I'VE"
did it. Imperialism was his next
theme. In substance he said: "The
American army took Manila and the
Philippines by right of conquest, to
say nothing Of the $2o,O0O,O00 we paid
to Spain to clinch our right of posses
sion. We are going to hold them, re-
gardless of what the Democrats say
or do"
Rev. d. +. Combash followed Mr..
Miles, and he spoke for half an hour
telling the voters present how glorious
it was to be patriotic Republican and
stand by the administration. The
meeting then adjourned.

The Clinton correspondent sends the
Democrat the following account of the
Republican rally at Manchester Friday
night:
Last Friday evening the Republicans

without any accidents. In the hollow
one-half mile west of Manchester they
unloaded and 'flined up Doc Harper
acted as captain and J. A. and Pat
Smith as lieutenants. They were fol.
lowed by the Clinton Lone Star band
of nine pieces. Next came 10 voters,
(by actual count) These were follow
! ed by the First Voters clubs of 1904,
1908 and 1912, bearing torches and all
kinds Of banners and pictures.
One banner read: "Clinton pre-.
icnct will give $50 votes for Nc.
Kinley." This conclusion was arrived
at by a straw vote on the way over.
Every man and boy told the number
of bis relatives who would like to vote
for Mckinley. Another banner hur.
rahed for a Full Dinner Pail" of
which the speaker made no mention.
Arriving rather late they heard MIR.
Wilcox conclude and L. Q. Miles de-
claim. 1t was with great difficulty
that the ordinary educated person was
able to follow Mr.. Miles In his elo-
quent discourse, as he scared so far
up among the clouds that his reason
ing became misty. As an orator he
was a failure, according to the verdict
Of the school boys in the crowd. AZ

their faces homeward, fearing some
worse calamity than being compelled
to listen to Orator Miles.

ranks.

Prevention Of Forest Fires.

Washington, March DEMONSTRATION
OF the causes. effects, and means OF
prevention of forest fires in the West,
will be carried on this summer in
Washington, Oregon, California, Ari.
iona. New Mexico, Utah, Colorado.
Wyoming, Idaho. South Dakota. Be-
sides field study, designed chiefly to
discover means OF preventing the evil,
the forestry division is making a his
troic record OF all important fires which
have occurred in the United States
since 1854. Although yet incomplete,
this indicates that the annual recorded
loss ny forest burnings in the United
States is. at the very lowest, 500, 900, j..
600. 1t will probably run far above
this sum. as the Pacific coast states
have been only partially examined.
Accounts of over $500 disastrous fires
have been obtained in the II states
already examined. Michigan. Mime.
sofa and Wisconsin have suffered the
most severely.

described by an English lady. who has

suppose. She is an ardent painter and
her pictures are said to be admirable
specimens OF Chinese art. Strange as
1t may SEEM her Majesty is also said
to be fond Of wrestling. and frequently
INDUCES in this rather virile form of
exercise. She is we'll read. Is fond Of
European music. and has some skill as
a pianist. She ia said both by her
friends and enemies to be absolutely
without any sense of fear. and, need.
less to say, her life has been attempted
an infinite number OF times.

NEEDS OF THE NAVY.
Secretary Long Submits statement to
Congress.


Congress.
Washington, March 5.-Secretary
Long has made statement to the house
naval committee on>the general needs
Of the navy and the desirability of not
building new ships in government
Yards AS to the new ships, he held tc
his recommendation at the time con-
gress met. namely. three armored cruis'
ers of about $4,000 tons each, with the
heaviest armor and most powerful ord
nance; IL gunboats of about 900 tons
each, three protected cruisers OF about
5000 tons each. As to building war.
ships in our navy yard, Mr.. Long said
they cost much more than those built
under contract, and took twice as Ions
to build them.
Admiral Dewey suggested to the COM
mittee that it leave off the l2 gunboats
and give three new battleships instead.
He said that the battleships would he
more servlceable, as General Otis had
just purchased IA gunboats, and had
turned them over to the navy. They
were in fair condition, and the admiral
said that from his experience. ne
thought they were just the vessels
needed for service in the Philippines.

For reasons not altogether apparent
from an American point of view. con.
siderable interest has recently been
manifested in Congress in the Panama
route for the inter-oceanic canal. 1t is
easy enough to understand that the
former promoters Of the Inflated enter
prise which wrecked the reputation OF
nearly every one connected with II
would be glad to have the United States
take the big Panama ditch off their
hands. but there are reasons in abund.
ance why this government should per.
severe in the Nicaragua scheme In pref.
erence. Senator Morgan. perhaps the
best-informed man on this particular
subject in the United States Senate. Is
in favor Of going ahead with the Mica
ragua canal without waiting for the
report Of the commission now consider
ing and looking into the Panama route.
Among other reasons the Alabama SEN
ator offers for preferring the more
northern route is one that ought to have
great weight. In his report on the
strategic relations Of the canal Senator
Morgan puts the case very clearly and
briefly in these words: III after we
had constructed Il canal ut Panama
these republics Costa RIGA and Nicara-
g,la), backed by the other Central
American States. or by other countries,
should open ship canal over this
route, they would cut our line Of COM
munication on both sides OF the 18TH
mus with a shorter line to our coasts,
and. in the military sense. would inter-
pose between us and our base Of opera
tions. That such a condition would lie
embarrassing Is the mildest form in
which to speak Of situation that
would be itnolerable and perilous in
the highest degree. II there are to be
two canals across the isthmus in COM
ing time. one of them must he a canal
under American control, and 1t Is In
dispensable to our safety that 1t should
be located on the Nicaragua route"
