The Paramount Issue.
From the Evening " isconsin.

From the Evening Wisconsin
"The trasition from deficits in
peace to SURPRISES in war; from
bond issuing to bond paying;
from hopeless farmers to happy
farmers; from men hunting jobs
to jobs hunting men; from soup
houses to banquet tables; from
poverty to prosperity; is not the
result of accident Or chance, or
famines IN India, butts the result
of having a party in power that
knows how to run the country
and command it's confidence. In
an article on the approaching
Presidential campaign which
Gen. c. H. Grosvenor has con-
tributed to the North American
Review, that experienced and sa-
gacious political leader COM
mends the above form of words
as i'll itself a platform on which
the Republicans could well afford
to go before the country and
take their chances of receiving
next November an overwhelming
majority Of the votes Of the peo-
pie.
When the General advanced
this opinion the Democratic plat
form of 1900 had not been for
mulated. The labored effort of
that platform to put the Repub-
lican party on the defensive is
absurd, and will be so regarded
by the people. Like Parson Ev-
aus, in "The Merry Wives of
Windsor" who was not deceived
by Falstaf's disguise, they will
spy the bread under the muller.
The garments Of the old woman
of Brentford did not conceal the
identity of Falstaf, nor will the
declaration that "anti-imperial-
ism is the paramount issue OBJ
fuscate the American people, who
will recognize that the currency
is again the paramount issue, as
it was in 1896, and who at the
polls will fight the battle out on
that line, and once more rout the
forces of dishonest money.

The wisepoor man who bought
a farm on easy payments, and
the wise manufacturer who er-
eeted factory in Northern Wis
consin a few years ago, when
times were not as prosperous as
they are now, are reaping their
reward. Northern Wisconsin is
feeling expansion in the truest
sense Of the word Opportuni-
ties have not passed, by any
means. There are still thousand
of acres of rich hardwood timber
lands awaiting the settler as
well as the manufactures which
can be obtained at low figures
and on easy terms. Good roads
fine school houses and other i'm
provemef1ts are increasing and
civilization is progressing. The
plentitude of iron ore, clay, kao-
line, mari and timber lands sup
plies the wants of everybody.
The transportation facilities
are unexcelled. The Wisconsin

TWO WOMEN HEATERS.
One Kicked His Wife and the Other
 Assaulted a Neighbor

Kansas City, Dec. 15.-A sad story, though commonplace in the police court, was told in a case there yester day. " $. Mann was arrested upon a charge of asaulting his wife. It was said that he had thrown a stove lid at her. kicked her, and that he had stated that he would make a Jessie Morrison case' out of it. They live at 1292 Main street. Mann was fined $lOO. Until six years ago they lived in New ton, Kansas.
 James McMillan was fined $25 in pol ice court yesterday morning for an as sault upon Mrs. l.. M. Goodman, his neighbor, at 54S Harrison street. Me Milan was fixing a fence that divides his place from Mrs. Goodman's and a small boy taunted him from the Good man lot about his inability as a carpen- ter. Later Mrs. Goodman appeared, and, it is alleged, threw a sauce pan at McMillan. He then struck her with his fist.

impossible to form any final judgment until the senate acts. That war, or ev- en a serious misunderstanding, could ever result from such a cause, receives no official or public credence.
 Though the trouble between Holland and Portugal can scarcely result in war, it is far more serious and interest ing than generally regarded here. Great Britain is concerned in the af- fair more deeply than appears on the surface, for it is due to a British pro- test to Portugal that the eXequatur of Herr Pott. the Dutch consul at Lou renzo Marquez, was withdrawn, and the visit of a powerful British fleet to Portuguese waters is something more than a coincidence. The Lisbon press frankly declares it was warning dem onstration to other nations to keep their hands off Portugal. The British officials also do not hesitate to admit their governments readiness to back up the action which Portugal took at its request. Hence, Holland can do lit tie more than gracefully make the best of bad job, unless she receives the support of some of the great powers, which is a very remote contingency.
 The temporary withdrawal of the Netherlands Minister alt Lisbon and the Portuguese minister at The Hague, though officially belittled, is the se- quence of serious friction. the details of which were known to the British sec retary of state for foreign affairs, the Marquise of Lasdowne, some weeks ago.
 The unusual action of sending the whole British channel squadron to Lis bon is regarded by those who have in side information as being one of the boldest and most successful strokes of aggressive diplomacy in recent history. With Great Britain showing such a strong hand the absent ministers are likely to return to their posts shortly, and the incident will probably only produce an effective illustration of the fact that an alliance exists between Portugal and Great Britain. It was effected when the question of landing South African troops at Beira, Portu- guese East Africa, came up, and was announced at the time in these dis patches. In this connection it is in teresting to note that the French press regards the whole affair as fresh menace to France, and that the
Arizona republican., 1900-12-16

Spanish papers interpret it similarly, as regards their own country.
 The Chinese problem is so wrapped up in the contradictory dispatches, and so complicated by the multitude of notes and amendments thereto, that even the keenest diplomats frankly confess they scarcely know hCw the situation stands. From one of these particularly interested in the Ameri- can plans for China, it is learned that the negotiations going on at all the capitals may be well summed up as an effort Ito get the Chinese court to return to Pekin. At last, the powers seem to realize that all the able notes they could have formulated are not worth the paper they are written on, until the powers are in touch with the Chinese court. Providing this is ac- complished, which, it is hoped, will be the case, the powers are willing to make the question of repara tion secon- dary to the establishment of stable form of Chinese government. When this is done, the question of indemnity will come up. The method of its exac- tion has not yet been decided, though all agree that it cannot be secured territorially.

GERMAN FINANCES
Gloomy View by Secretary of
 Imperial Treasury.
Gradual Shrinkage of Inflated Condi- tions Predicted - Increased Ex- penditure of 53,000,00O Marks in 1900 to Be Provided For.

Berlin, Dec. 15.-In the Reichstag to- day, during the debates on the esti- mates, the secretary of the imperial Treasury, Baron von Thielmann, took a decidedly gloomy view of the econ omic situation in Germany. He said the situation had been undergoing radical change since summer, and per sons must be prepared for a number of years to see gradual shrinkaGe of the inflated condition. The decline, how ever, would not take the form of a gen. eral financial crash, as in 1873. This period of diminished tradc could not pass without affecting the imperial budget. Therefore it will be necessary to strengthen the reserves of the treasury.
 In regard to the abolition of the su- gar bounties, the secretary of the treas ury said the negotiations between Aus tria, France and Germany had not been concluded, but they would prob ably provide a basis for def1dite agree ments.
 The secretary also announces that d bill taxing sparkling wines would be presented to the richstag, and that another bill taxing saccharine was in course of preparation. In 1901, he ad- ded, an increased expenditure of 53,000,- 900 marks must be provided cOr. Con sequently the transfer of surplus rev enues to the federal states would cease. A general survey Of the present estimates afforded a less pleasing Pic- ture than last year.

BY THE U. s. SENATE
It is Given Out That England Has No Better Terms to Offer Than Those Included in the Hay Pauncefote Understanding -Rn- glish Diplomacy Confused by the Chinese Puzzle.

London, Dec. 15.-The Nicaragua ca hal creates only mild interest in Eng land The long cable dispatches deal ing with the action of the United States senate are read by the general public with comparatively little interest and less understanding. The report that the British government has in any way indicated it's willingness to accept the senate amendment is utterly false. In fact, the indications such as they are, point to Great Britain refusing to con- slider any amendment to what the for eign office already believes to be a gen. erous concession. To quote a high au- thority:
 We would not have abroSated the Clayton-Bulwer treaty for any other nation in the world. Unless all the traditions of British foreign policy are recovered, fail to see how we can af- ford to give away any mole advantag- es, even to America

TO THE INSANE ASYLUM.

Kansas City, Dec. 15.-Miss An- ma Grain, the operatic singer, well known in musical circles in Kansas City. will be taken from the city hospital to Missouri insane asylum No. ?, at St. Joseph, today. Miss Grain came to this city a few weeks ago, suffering from acute melanchOlia, and she was given treatment in the city hospital. It was found that her re- covery depended upon more scientific treatment than could be given there, and her removal to the state asylum was considered desirable.

NORTH POLE IS IN PERIL.
No fewer Than Four Expeditions to Go
 in Quest of It.

London, Dec. 15.-Evelyn B. Baldwin, formerly of the United States weather bureau, who is preparing an expedition in search of the north pole. has arrived here to consult with scientists and in spect ships. He will go to the con- tinent at the end of the week. MT. Baldwin informed a representative of the Associated Press that he had defin- itely decided to adopt the Franz Josefland route. and that he hoped to get away next summer.
 The famous Russian ice crusher, Err mack, which is to attempt to reach the north pole in 1901 under the command of Vice-Admiral Makaroff, of the inn perial Russian navy, is SOw being fitted out at Newcastle for the expedition, and Captain Bernier. the Canadian eX- plorer, is busy in London fitting out the Scottish King. What with these expeditions and the German expedition. the year 1901 promises to be eventful in the history of searches for the north pole.

QUEER ACCIDENT SUIT.

Kansas City, Dec. 16.-Mary Dezell has sued the Fidelity and Casualty In surance company for $5,OOO on policies held by her husband, who died in Sep tember, 1896, from an overdose of mor- phine. She claims that the overdose was an accident and that therefore sine is entitled to recover the accident poli- cy. The company resists payment on the ground that he took narcotic stim- ulants, which is prohibited.
