Private Jones Of Sogod.

In an oflcial report to the Surgeon-Gen-
eral Of the Army. the Surgeon stationed
at Sogod. Cebu. Philippine Islands. calls
attention to the services Of Private JONES
Of the Hospital Corps. stationed at that
place, and commends him for future con-
sideration. The services are certainly
worthy of attention.
A native Filipino attacked his wife with
bolo, and cut her arm badly. also slashing
her face so that the eyeball was forced
out The Surgeon was absent when the
wounded woman was brought to the hos
pital; but Private JONES was on hand.
With only candles for light. he dressed
the wounds. replacing the eyeball and sew
ing up the wound in the face and wounds
In the back The woman refused TO have
her arm amputated. though Private JONES
advised that operation; so the arm was
merely dressed antiseptically.
Two days later, however, the arm began
to turn black: so Private JONES cut It of
above the elbow. by the circular method"
the simpler form Of amputation that makes
no flaps When the Surgeon returned to duty
some days later, he found the patient doing
well, and the arm healing properly.
1t seems at first unfortunate that the
baptismal name Of Private JONES does
not appear in the report yet 1t is con-
ceivable that the Private JONES Of Sogod
is the only person Of his name In the Hospital
Corps If he is. baptismal names would
be superfuous. even to JONES Solong as
he is identified by the authorities. 80 that
no other JONES gets the praise due to JONES
Of Sogod. first names are useless. But
JONES Of Sogod certainly is credit to the
Hospital Corps. and we hope the Surgeon
General will keep a kindly eye on him.

Has Spain a Future?

There are many indications. including the
Increasing weakness Of the Shereeflan
Government and the probability Of a col
lision between its alf-savage tributaries
and the French engaged in building a rail-
way southwark through the Sahara. that
the Morocco question. which BISMARCK
deemed a grave one will soon have to be
considered by the Powers directly con-
cerned. As Spain Is unquestionably one Of
those Powers. the inquiry Is suggested
whether her sole hope Of expansion does not
lie in this quarter, and whether it has a
reasonable chance Of fulhlment.
The political relations OF the Iberian
Peninsula with the northwestern corner Of
Africa have been intimate from Cartha-
ginian times. The close association con-
tinued under the Romans, the Later Empire
and the Visigoths, the latter having held a
coast strip Of Morocco for n considerable
period before the date Of their overthrow.
We need not point out that the history Of
Spain and Morocco was inextricably blended
throughout the eight succeeding centuries
during which Christian and Moslem fought
since the conquest OF Granada. the Span
iards have regarded the country on the
south of the Straits Of Gibraltar az their
natural Inheritance. and, by way Of NUM-
ments of title, they hold at this day on the
Mediterranean coast Of Morocco two for
tresses, Ceuta and Melita. A AMinistry which
should propose TO surrender those fortresses
to any European Power or TO renounce the
dream of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. whereof they are
the tangible symbols. would be swept from
power by whirlwind of popular indgna-
ton. There is not peasant in CASTLE who
does not regard the Shereenan Government
as the usurper Of a territory that Of right
belongs to Spain
The intense and universal sentiment re-
garding the future OF Morocco. which has
long prevailed among Spaniards. IL now
emphasized by the recognition that in no
other direction can their country expect to
extend its boundaries. The vast dominions
Of which Spain was once mistress in the
New World and the insular empire in the
western Pacific which was hers but yester-
day. have vanished Sardinia and Sicily
she once controlled, but she can never hope
to regain them as against the kingdom Of
Italy, In northwest Africa, on the other
hand, the great European Powers have
seemed TO acknowledge the equity OF certain
reversionary pretensions on the part Of the
Madrid Government. When the partition
OF Africa was effected by the Brussels Con-
ference. a spacious tract on the Atlantic,
lying Immediately south OF Morocco and
stretching long distance inland, was al
lotted to Spain. The tract is almost unex-
plored and, consequently, its intrinsic value
Is unknown. but. as It IL the natural
hinterland OF Morocco, the concession Of II
to Spain seemed to involve A recognition of
her right eventually to acquire part at
least OF the Shereef's possessions. That
right. indeed. is undisputed by France and
England. the Powers which. next to Spain.

The convention of western cattlemen
at Denver next Monday will be largely
attended. From it will go up no uncer-
tain protest against the lease law which
proposes to turn over the public ranges
to large cattle syndicates. Stockmen
know the only sure way of protecting
their grazing lands is to leave the range
as it is now-free to all who wish to
utilize it. To lease it to syndicates
to curtail the privileges of the
smaller cattle owners with the certain
ty of having them wiped out altogether
or later. The smaller owners
would be driven from the range and the
great cattle industry of the west would
fall into the hands of a few foreign
cattle syndicates.

Abandoned Camps.

Some of the old and abandoned min
ing camps in the west are richer in
mineral than are some of the new
camps which are attracting scores of
mining men. In New Mexico every once
in awhile an old Spanish mine is found
that is very rich in mineral, and sever
al camps which We're declared dead are
enjoying a fresh boom. There are many
old camps in the west which will well
bear investigation. Fashion seems to
go in the mining world as well as in the
social sphere. A certain camp becomes
popular, people rush there just because
it is popular, and yet, in many in
stances, an old camp which has pro-
duced it's millions is deserted, although
it is richer in it's deposits of precious
metals than is the new and fashionable
camp. The fault with many mining men
is that when they do have a good thing
they do not hold on to 1t, although on
the other hand some mining men go to
the extreme to spend a fortune and
their life in sticking to a worthless hole
in the ground.

Men OF Convictions.

The mar who says he has no political
opinion is a fraud or an ignoramus. The
man who shouts that the American flag
is all the platform a national party
should have evidently Ices not know
that civil government is based on GER
tain principles and upon certain theo-
ries. 1t is in the application of those
theories that parties differ. The Amer
lean people demand hat their candi-
dates for public Office shall be men of
known convictions, and with the cour-
age to maintain them. They wan men
who have a fixed political belief, and
they must know precisely what their po-
litical belief is before they elect them.
The flag of the United States is a glo-
rious emblem, and in war stands for
courage, for freedom and for victory,
but as a political platform it stands
only for general principles accepted by
all, and not for the different principles
and theories which must be applied in
governing a nation like the United
States.

Faithful Officials.

The fatal wounding Of Deputy Sheriff
George Scarborough of Grant county by
outlaws in Arizona calls attention to
the fact that officers of the aw have a
very perilous calling in New Mexico
and Arizona. where there + many
sparsely settled regions Astounding in
natural hiding places for desperadoes.
To be a good sheriff of a southwestern
county requires a man of courage and
indomitable energy. Within the last
few years several officers of the law in
the southwest have given up their lives
in their eagerness to protect their COM
munities from the outrages of murder
ers and thieves. To these officers be-
longs much of the credit for the pres
ent comparatively safe condition that
the residents of the southwest are now
enjoying. The territory at large and the
counties W a debt of gratitude, which
money will not pay, to their sheriffs
and their assistants If they are men who
do their duty without fear or favor.

Reform Of National Guard,

The English government promises to
reform it's national guard or volunteers
as they are called. The English in their
present war, the same as the Americans
in their war with Spain, have been
taught that a good national guard Is a
bulwark Of strength in time of neces-
sity. Both in the United States and in
Great Britain 1t was discovered that the
national guard, with a few exceptions,
was far inferior in discipline and knowl-
edge of tactics to the regular army.
There was nc unity in the organization
as a whole, and the weapons which 1t
had used in its drills were ~antiquated
and obsolete. This Is to be changed in
Great Britain and in the United States,
too, If the appropriation recommended
to congress by the committee on mill
tary affairs Is passed, and the national
guard will then become but little infe-
rior in discipline to the standing armies
Of Europe.

A resolution has been introduced in
congress requesting the secretary of
agriculture to report whether horseflesh
is being canned, cured or otherwise pre-
pared for human food in this country.
The inquiry is to pave the way for leg
islation against the use Of horsefiesh for
food purposes in the United States. In
most European eountries, while horses
are not especially bred for that purpose,
horse meat has become a staple article
of food, and no satisfactory scientific
or culinary reason has ever been ad-
vanced why it should not be. In the
United States there exist one or W
canning establishments that can horse
meat for export. but not for home con-
sumption, as the prejudice against it is
very strong in this country. The day
may soon come. however, even In the
United States when a tender horse
steak will be preferred by many to a
tough beefsteak.

Another Democratic Falsehood.

The Democrats have been making
considerable political capital out of the
return of Governor Leary from Guam.
They asserted that the president re-
moved him from the governorship be-
cause Leary endeavored to extend the
United States constitution over the is
land. OF course, all reasoning men de-
clared this to be rot. but the average
Democrat is rather unreasoning. So it
has become necessary for the war de-
partment to publish the letter which
Leary sent to the president asking to be
relieved of his duties at Guam, as fam
lily duties demanded his presence at
home. This letter pricks another bubble
of Democratic falsehood, but there is no
limit to the inventive skill of the follow
ers of Bryan, and a new campaign lie
is now in order.
