BAROMETER OF PROGRESS
Why the Pan American Will E
clipse All Preceding
Exhibitions.

When the Pan-Amerlcan expo
sltion opens, May 1st, 1901, just
eight years will have elapsed
since the opening of the great
Chicago Worlds Fair. In this
marvelously progressive era and
within the period thus included
amazing and substantial progress
has been made by American gen
ius, and in many directions. OF
this, III every direction and de-
partment, the Fan American Ex
position will be found to have ia
ken fullest advantage. AS most
brilliant illustration of this, the e.
lectrical display, with its two hun
dred thousand lights turning
night into a veritable day OF fairy
land enchantment, was scarcely
thought of eight years ago. In
every way, shape and form. the
display of electrical machinery,
appliances and new inventions, as
we'll as the celestial radiance born
of the mysterious and unsolvable
power, will be upon an altogether
unparalleled scale of force, mag
nltude and perfection, alone worth
a long journey to see, and not
likely to be equaled for at least a
generation to come.
Within these eight years, too,
what immense strides have been
made in the development and
betterment OF railroads. as illus
trated in the faster trains and bet
ter service, which will bring mil
lions of visitors from remote sec
tions, with speed, safety and com
fort, and at exceedingly cheap
round trip excursion rates.

Measure of Enterprise.

The merchant ls best rated as

The army of occupation in the
Philippines is about to make a
general forward movement. With
force OF 10000 men, the rainy
ses son ended, roads in good
condition, General Macarthur
should be able to wage vigorous
warfare on the guerrilla bands
that infest such a large portion OF
the archipelago. The insurgent
leaders understand bv this time
that they have nothing to hope
tor from America In sustaining
the insurrection. The people de-
cided by an overwhelming vote to
uphold the flag In the Philippines.
Such conclusive expression of
opinion mnst have demonstrated
to Agulnaldo the futlllty of pro-
longing his resistance. II he per-
slsts it will be because personal
considerations blind him to the
best interests of himself and of
his people.
1t has been repeatedly pointed
out that the Flliplnos have trans
ierred their feeling against Spain
to the United States. Spanish
rule was corrupt, inefficient and
oppressive. Naturally they have
feared continued oppression from
America. 1t Is only when they
have come IN contact with the
government of the United States
that they have begun to under
stand that American possessions
are under very different regime
from that OF the colonies Of Spain.
AS this fact becomes better ap-
pretended the islands will cause
less and less trouble, and
the military force may be reduc-
ed.
The Maylay protectorate OF
Great Britain shows that peo-
pie kin to the Fillplnos may live

The official count OF the vote of
the few states that have reported
shows several interesting features.
One OF these Is that in Nebraska
the BRYAN electors received 1874
more votes than Dietrich, the Re-
publican candidate for governor,
who was elected. About 5000
persons voted tor president in the
state Yho failed to indicate their
choice for governor. 1t had been
expected that Poynter's lack of
popularity would make him run
behind Bryan, 30 that the an
nouncemspt that the presidential
candidate was defeated by 1000
votes, while the Fusion candidate
was beaten by 2 margin OF less
than 1000. created surprise. The
official count, however, shows that
Poynter ran 1000 behind the ma
tional ticket, as had been pre-
dicted.
Outside of Nebraska the out
come was numerically far more
disastrous to Mr.. Bryan. On un
official returns it Is calculated
that, IN the six states of New
York, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois,
Kansas and Minnesota, his plural
tiles fell behind those of the Dem
ocratic candidates for governor bv
more than $50, 600 votes. In Kan
sas, where 4,4OO of those who cast
their ballot for president failed to
vote for governor, Breldenthal ran
5000 ahead OF BRYAN. In Indiana
Bryan ran 1000 votes behind the
Democratic candidate for COVER
nor; in Michigan, 10000; in MIN
pesota, So, 900, and i'll Illinois, 1S,
900, while McKinley's plurality in
the last state was $4,000 above
Yates. Ohio, which showed a
detection of 100000 votes for
"Golden Rule" Jones last year in
the state election, returned to Its
normal condition and gave only
10000 to the various minor par
ties, including Socialists and Pro
hlbitlonists. Mckinley gained 49,
600 votes there over the results of
1896. Maryland is a curious in
stance of a southern state, return
ing solid Republican Congress
sional delegation. Massachusetts,
almost as strongly Republican by
tradition as Maryland is Demo
cratic, sends three Democrats to
Congress.
The state results all point to
the inavailabllity of Mr.. Bryan as
candidate for a third nomlna-
ton. The fact that the Republi-
cans made gains in the House as
we'll as in the electoral college can
be no consolation to him. The re-
sult OF the Congressional elections
simply showed that the people
wanted Congress to uphold the
flag and the policy of expansion.
The outcome In the state balloting
showed that thousands OF Demo
Gratis refused to vote for the head
OF the national ticket.-Kansas

There is some interest here regarding
the further action of the Lackawanna
company on the question of agreeing to
maintain the 10 per cent increase for the
next six months. 1t is believed, how
ever, that it will fall IN line with the
action of the independent operators.
