POINTS FOR LITTLE AMERICANS

From a speech in Tama, Iowa, by
Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson on
July "a. He spoke at considerable
length, largely on expansion. He re-
viewed the Spanish war and the events
Immediately succeeding 1t. He said
Dewey was driven out of Hongkong at
the outbreak of the war, and compell-
ed to take Manila because "the United
States did not own hitching post in
the China seas to which to moor ves-
sci" He held that the insurrection In
the Philippines had been practically
put down.
Those events" he continued, "have
added Dew issue this fall--the ques-
ton OF expansion. Little Americans
will get frightened at the growth OF
the nation and make opposition. Poll
iticians in desperation for an issue will
call expansion Imperialism. An i'm
perialist is ruler who is not restrain
ed by any division of authority or
written constitution. China is ruled
that way. Countries that have indie

1T is very high privilege to be un-

IDAHO STANDS BY LAW AND ORDER.

Philadelphia Press.l
The result of the Democratic State Con-
vention held in Idaho last week will not
encourage those Anarchistic Congressman,
like Lentz of Ohio, who tried to make a
political issue out of the Occur d'Alene
riots. The control of the convention hung
on the question as to which one Of two
delegations from Shoshone county, the
scene of the riots, should be admitted, but
after the case was fully argued the anti
riot, or Steunenberg, delegation was seated
by a vote of two to one and the law and
order element prevailed.
This is great triumph for Governor
Steunenbelg, who for over year has
fought the dynamiters and rioting miners
both at home and in Washington. Gov
ernor Steunenberg was elected in 1898 on
Democratic Populist Labor platform but
he is able to distinguish politics from an
archy, and when the rioting began in the
Occur d'Alene mines in 1899 and men
under the mask of labor unions resorted to
dynamite, the blowing up of mines and
murder to enforce their demands on the
employers, the Governor at once showed
of what metal he is made. He first tried
to enforce order himself, but finding it inn
possible he appealed to the Government
at Washington for help. This action of
the Governor, the presence Of Federal
troops in Idaho and the arrest of the riot
GUS miners have awakened bitter discus-
sion, and some demagogue Congressman
began an investigation with the purpose of
making political capital out the situation.
Such labor leaders as Samuel Gompers
gave the scheme their countenance.
1t was freely predicted that when the
Idaho Democratic State Convention met it
would rebuke Governor Steunenberg and
80 virtually indorse the course or the riot
ing miners. These predictions failed to
realize, however, and the Governor gained
complete control of the convention by the
rejection of the delegation in sympathy
with the rioters. Some notable victories
for law and order have been gained this
year, but none is more significant than
the one Governor Steunenberg obtained in
Idaho.

Kete's place was in the dining room.
She was not the cook, but she had fine
talent for deserts, and often went into the
kitchen to make up some special dainty.
So it happened that when the mistress
had clerical dinner, with the Bishop and
two or three other churchmen, Kate was
the author Of the pudding. She was very
much pleased when the Bishop praised the
dish and the other clergymen echoed his
opinion, but she masked her enjoyment
of the situation behind the solemn face
which she always wore when waiting on
the table.
"Pray, tell me-" said the Bishop, "whai
is the name of this wonderful pudding2"
81 really don't know" said the mistress
"What is the name of it, Kate?"
Kate. very proud of the importance be-
slowed upon her, but with features un'
moved, said: "Well, ma'am, to tell ye

cial and industrial field, as result of the
policies of the Republican party, which
was put in control of the affairs of the ma
ton in 1897, with the hope that such con.
troll would result in the removal from the
manufacturer, the merchant, the farmer
and the wage.earner throughout the coun'
try, the blast of free trade.
This hope has been realized. Convinc-
ing evidence of it is to be found in the
booming industries in every manufactur-
ing city and town in New Jersey. 1t Is
not necessary for US to go away from home
for proof.
We point to the iron foundries, the

Then he raised his eyes, and, with a
characterize twist of the mouth which
those who have once seen do not soon
forget, added: "When man has de-
cided upon plan Of action for either

ALL KILLED IN AZ YEARS.
The Arctic Sea Cow, Discovered In
1741, Had Entirely Disap-
peared in 170S.

One of the most remarkable animals
on the Pacific to disappear before the
advance of man within the past $50
years was the rbytina or sea COW
rhytina gigas-which was discovered
by Behring in 1741 on the island that
was given his name, says the Scientific
American.
The surgeon of the wrecked party
has left an interesting account of this
Arctic manatee-an extraordinary ami
NAL, which attained length Of 30 feet
and weight of 5000 pounds.
The animal was found in herds about
the mouths of streams, and being a
clumsy creature, with no means of de-
Tense, easily became a victim to the
party, who speared them for food.
So vigorous was the warfare against
1t carried on that in nine years the five
herds on Copper island were extirpat-
ed; in 1863, those on Behring island
had been destroyed, and in 1868 the
last one paid the penalty and the
rhytina became memory, the skeie-
tons in the National and Russian
museums, the San Francisco academy
of science and few others alone tell
ing the story.

T0OMBs AND STEPHENS.


Atlanta Constitution.
DIR. F. H. Orme told me several good
stories the other day about our Outline
statesmen.
Among other anecdotes and incidents
the doctor gave me some piquant remi'
niscences of Toombs and Stephens.
Toombs always tried to impress people
with the belief that his genius made him
equal to any emergency. Even when be
studied hard, or availed himself of the
labor of others, he encouraged the idea
that his most splendid efforts were the
result of the inspiration Of the moment,
entirely offhand, without any special
preparation for the occasion.
Once, when q very important debate
was going on in the Federal Congress,
Toombs made a magnificent speech which
attracted eyerybody's attention.
1t was not only an eloquent speech,
but 1t was remarkable for its mastery ar
ray of facts and figures and its convincing
"You must have devoted considerable
time to its preparation" said one of the
statesman's admirers.
"Well, l gave about two hours to it."
Toombs replied, with careless, indifer-
emit air. II
Somebody repeated this to Stephens In
the presence Of several Congressman.
1.-TWO hours !" he exclaimed, some
what irritably. Prepared that speech
IN two hours, did he2 Irpent two weeks
On it. That's all l care to say"
Stephens had patiently and laboriously
the statistics, and Toombs bad
merely added the fiourishes.
The two great Georgians attended
National Democratic convention shortly
before the war, and Stephens was con-
ined to his bed just when he could least
ford to be laid up. !

PPlzE MONEY IN SANTIAGO FIGHT,
Court of Claims Recognizes Sampson
as Commander.


A decision just rendered by the Court
of Claims puts an end, 30 far as the law
goes, to several controversies regarding
the destruction Of Admiral Cevera's
feet. 1t leaves others exactly where they
were before. The question presented for
adjudication was the amount Of bounty to
be paid to the American officers and
crews that participated in the fight and
the settlement of this question necessi-
tated determination just what warships
did the work and their strength as COM
pared with the Spanish vessels. The
Court hold that Rear.Admiral Sampson
commanded the American feet and that
Commodore Schley was under him in
command of division or squadron. Not
only is it asserted that the New York as
sisted in winning the victory, and that
her men therefore are entitled to O share
of the bounty, but similar credit is given
to the Harvard, Resolute and Fern, on
the ground that they were within signal
distance Of part of the ships engaged
and would have rendered effective aid if
their services had been required. In e.
timating the relative strengths Of the hos
tile fleets the Court, as in the case of the
Manila engagement, takes no account Of
the land Notifications and harbor torpe-
does possessed by the Spaniards, and de-
clares the American forces the stronger of
the two. The total bounty awai ded,
consequently, is $l66, 700, or 500 for ev-
cry officer and man serving under Ad-
miral Cevera. OF this amount Admiral
Sampson will get twentieth, or 1886,
and about $1,000 will go to Admiral
Schley. 1t is said that the friends of Ad-
miral Sampson are highly delighted by
this decision, especially by that part of it
which names him the Commander.in-
Chief and speaks of the subordinate rank
held by the then Commodore Schley.
