The striking and important events of the last year have established the overw helming value of the THRICE-A- WEEK WORLD to every reader For an almost nominal sum it has kept it's subscribers informed of the pro- gress of all our wars and, moreover has reported them as promptly and fully as if it were daily With our interests still extending throughout the world, with our troops operating in the Philippines, and the great pres ident'al campaign, too, at hand, its value IS further increased.
 The motto Of the THRICE-A-WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better than it was the year before, and public confidence in it is shown by the fact that it now circulates more than twice as many papers every week as any other news paper, not a daily, published in America.

these are the ones who are hatch ing up the rumors, false and par tiaIly false, with which people are being regaled in theoppositlon and free trade press. l don't fl d any of the American free trade papers denouncing the subsidies and bounties the foreign ships in com. petition with our own receive. They reserve their denuncIations for the suggestion that American ships be put upon an equality of conditions. 1t Is the same kind of situation that we have confront- ed several times on the tariff bill, and the country hasn't been ruined by that. 1 believe there is no bill before congress today that means so much of material benefit to the nation and to the people in every part as this shipping bilI."
 There seems to be an almost unanimous sentiment in congress in favor of ending this session be- fore the national conventions meet, and unless that something not now expected shall turn up. and cause a1 extension of the session the ad- Ijournment will probably take place about the first of June.
 Senator Allison was paid high compliment when he was chosen by the republica caucus to. bs chairman of the steering committee of seven, charged with arranging and controlling the legislative pro- gram in the senate for the remain der of the session, and authorized to choose the other SIX mem bers of the committee; but the republican, senators know Senator Allison's sterling qualities; that his exper- fence fitted him for the. place given him and also for choosing the right men for his associates. :. The house this week took up and 1 passed the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill. As usual the discussion of this billj which carries tho money for the pay of the civil employees of the government, provoked several more or less spirited dialogues about the civil service law and its administra. ton, as applied to the government departments in Washington.
 Senator Chandler has not yet called up the Quay case, although he may do so at any time, But, in view of the importance of speedy action on the Porto Rican and Ha- waiian bills, it is not likely that the senate will find time to dispose of the Quay case until after both of these bills have been acted upon. although some speeches. on the Quay case may be made from time to time after it is called up when ever opportunity occurs.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

(From Our Regular CorrespcndentJ
 Washington, Feb. T6 -The sec ond stage of the financial legisla- ton by this congress was reached when the senate passed the repub- lican finance bill by healthy and substantial majority. The bill passed is substitute for the bill passed earlier in the session by the house. Both bills will now go to conference committee, composed of senators and representatives, which will decide which bill will be finally put through, or whether it will be more advisable to make composite bill, composed of parts If each. There are differences in the bills, but inasmuch as they both have the same object in view 1t will not be very difficult for the conference to reach an agreement, and there is no doubt that when an agreement IS reached 1t will be promptly ratified by the house and senate.
 Chairman Payne, of the house ways and means committee, has given notice that the Porto Rican tariff bill will be called up next Monday and kept before the house until disposed of. The democrats are busy circulating rumors of re- publican opposition to this bill, but the most careful search has failed to find single republican, membe of the house who will say that he will vote against it. The bill will pass.
 Senator Davis, chairman of the senate committee on foreign rela tions, which is still considering the Nicaraguan treaty, never tx- presses an opinion without know Ing what he is talking about. Therefore when he expressed the opinion that the treaty would be ratified, it carried more weight in Washington than the stnries circu- lated largely by paid lobbyists, to the contrary. The stories of the strength of the opposition of the treaty have no better foundation than those alleging that President Mckinley contemplated withdraw ing the treaty from the senate, and the last had absolutely no founda- tion. President Mckinley believes the treaty is good one, and that 1t will be ratified.
 Representative Grogvenor cl Ohio, chairman of the house com mtttee on merchant marine and fisheries, which has charge of the shipping bill, gave out statement concerning the numerous fakes published about this bill, in which he said: "It proposes to put American vessels in the foreign trade on an equality with the for eign vessels HOW doing our carry ing. When that is done we ex- pect to see American shipyards turning out the shipping that is needed to do our foreign carrying. There are some people who are so afraid that this bill will give a chance to American ships to SC. cure a share of our foreign carrying that they can't sleep nights, and

American labor is smore productive
because it works with American
machinery. Instead Of a sickle the
farmer frequently cuts the grain
with a reaping machine; instead
Of failing or treading it out he
threshes:it with a steam thresher ;
instead Of pounding it in a mortar
with a pestle he hulls and cleans
it in a modern mill, where a few
clean and polish as much rice in a
day as five thousand men could do
with the primitive tub and FOUNDER
still used in the East.
Rice is peculiarly susceptible to
cultivation on large scale. To
raise it successfully, the farmer
must have at his command an
adequate supply OF water Of uni
form temperature and under such
control that it can be used in the
right quantities at the right times.

Leprosy In the Philippines.

Washington, Dec. 26.-An ap-
pended report Of General MacAr-
thurs review of the past fiscal year
gives some rather startling facts
regarding the introduction and pre-
valence Of leprosy in the islands.
According to the estimates Of the
Franciscan fathers, says Major Guy
L. Edie, the writer Of the report,
there are no fewer than 10000
lepers in the Viscayas. Leprosy
was introduced in 1888, when the
emperor Of Japan sent ship with
$50 lepers to the Philippines as
presentto be cared for by the Catholic
priests. Thus the seed was planted
and as no practical methods were
ever adopted to eradicate the dis
ease or prevent it's spread, it has
taken firm root. A house-to-house
inspection, began last January,
found more than 100 lepers con-
cealed in dwellings. These were
sent to San Lazaro hospital. in
Manila, but many others escaped
into the surrounding country. A
commission is now engaged in the
work Of selecting suitable island
or islands for the purpose Of isolat-
ing all the lepers in the archipel-
ago.

TWO THEORIES OF GOVERNMENT.

From the beginning of time, men
have taken two Numerically oppo-
site views of the governments to
which they have given willing or
unwilling allegiance. While race
is yetin the full pride of its strength,
stern joy is gained from every
crisis which presents opportunities
for self sacrifice and self-efface-
ment; for it is then clearly perceiv-
ed that the government is but the
shadow, of which the national char
acter is the substance. In such
times, great men make their ap-
pearance with unfailing regularity,
and deeds are done which history
will not willingly let die. 1t was
thus that Rome brought forth the
Cincinnati and the Reguli to hold
the reins of dictatorial authority,
whenever the commonwealth was
in peril; it was thus that France
was made illustrious by the achieve
ments of long line of soldiers and
statesmen who, with all their faults,
were yet colossal, in the intellectual
as in the moral sense; it was thus
that Germany rose from the dust
after Jena, to lean upon the strong
arms of her dauntless sons, Of the
type of Scharnhorst and Stein; it
was thus that England won world
wide dominion, through the state
craft of her Cecils aud Pitts, as
through the valor Of her Croinwells
and Nelson's. And in our own case,
the movement has been along pa
rallel lines. During the first GEN.
tury of our national existence, there
was no relaxation of the struggle
for the supremacy Of great ideas,
and men gave their money and
blood, without the semblance Of
regret.
When once the fabric Of a nations
power has been established on foun-
dations that seem unshakable, the
other view begins to be taken. The
exploitation Of the government
then becomes the predominant idea,
and the citizen does not ask him
self how much he can do for his
country, but how much his country
will do for him. In such q deca.
dent era, politics insensibly take on
the aspect of sordid trade, and the
poison of selfshness courses
through every vein Of the body po-
lite. The taxing power is wrested
from its primal purpose, to be the
tool Of the schemer, and the legis-
lative halls become exchanges in
which the transaction concern things
that should be beyond price. Men Of
the heroic mold are not bred in an
environment so full Of moral mala-
ria. The statesman gives way to

the placeman, and the soldier de-
generates into the martinez.

the placeman, and the soldier de-
generates into the martinez.
One need be no pessimist to fear
that this country of ours stands at
such parting of the ways. Certain
it is that an appalling proportion
of the proposed measures of legis-
lation are conceived in the interest
OF syndicates which seek to aggran-
dize themselves at the expense Of
the toiling masses. Subsidies are
demanded by shipowners; makers
of armor-plate combine to extort
millions from the nations need :;
the pensioners clamor for addition
al millions. On every side, the
prayer for largess goes up, and the
Treasury is thought to be the pro-
per spoil Of him who is astute
enough to enter under the forms of
law.
The history of the worlds victor
ious races shows that such greed
brings about it's own punishment,
with unfailing precision. The out
ward semblance of prosperity and
power is maintained for time, but
the chain is ultimately found to be
as weak as its weakest link. After
a while, the hour of doom is sound
ed, and the sceptre passes into the
hands of some other race which has
not yet been enervated by the cares
ses of fortune. Are we to tread
the old pathway, and quickly find
ourselves at the old goal? Heaven
forbid. Yet the signs of the time
are not to be mistaken. We are a
great people, but the laws of the
universe have not been repealed
for our benefit. 1t is, therefore,
certain that we must return
to the altruistic view of the purpo-
ses and powers Of government, if
we would escape the fate which is
reserved for the self-seeker, in the
public as in the private life of the
world. Times Democrat.

These conditions are best secured
by powerful pumping machinery
and extensive irrigation works,
and the result is systematized pro.
duction on a large scale. In such
industries American people lead.
There are several other reasons
for believing that we are to become
an important factor in the world S
production of rice. Hitherto we
have been cultizating a very ex-
pensive and undesirable variety,
but recently the Department of
of Agriculture imported a large
supply of Japan, or Kiusiu, rice,
which yields about one-fourth
more to the acre and loses about one
fourth less in milling than Hon
duras rice, the usual American
variety.
Moreover, it looks as if rice
straw will become a valuable com
mercial product. The price of pa
per particularly of the grade used
by newspapers, has of late been
steadily rising. TO meet the i'm
mense demand for cheap paper ex-
tensive experiments have been con-
Quoted, with the object of invent
ing cheaper method of manufac-
turing paper from rice straw.
These experiments are said to prom
ise success.
All these facts point to cheap
er and larger production in the
South and in other suitable regions.
From 1879 to 1889 the yield per
acre in the United States increased
twenty-six per cent. In recent
years number of Northern farm
ers have undertaken the cultivation
of rice with modern machinery in
Louisiana, and their success has
the industry in Texas
and elsewhere.
