At the exercises in connection with the
presentation by the Navy Department to
the city OF Canton, Ohio. OF a cannon
captured at Santiago, the President, at
ter repeated calls, responded as follows
on July 4. 1900:
"My Fellow Citizens-I win not con-

The composite chairman Of the Popu-
list Democracy, Senator Jones Of Arkan-
sas, is still resenting with considerable
cheat the charge that since he is such an
important officer OF the American Cotton
Company capital S7,000,000; John L.
Searles, ~lately treasurer Of the sugar
trust, grand moguD, It must be that he
is high priest in the trust temple, or,
at least, that he is reckless, abandoned
plutocrat. To do Mr.. Jones entire JUS
tice, we suppose that the American Cot
ton Company is not vicious trust which
deserves to be destroy"d any more than
number Of other corporations of ST.
100000 capital in the hands of former
officers OF more monopolistic trusts. Pre-
sumably the American Cotton Company
win make all the money it can, will make
dividends, indeed, upon its $4,000 of
stock. Mr.. John Il. Searles can be trust
ed to look after little thing like that,
even il Mr.. Jones deyotes all Of his at
tention for the next three months, or for
the next three years, for that matter, to
Populist Democratic politics exclusively.
The phase of Mr.. Jones' connection
with the American Cotton Company
which we would like him TO explain is
this, rather: How much of the $1,000
600 OF the stock OF the company has he
got. how did he get it, and what did he

How Did He Get His Trust Stock and What Did He Pay for IT.

give for It? Is his name, undoubtedly
a. eminent one in some quarters, used in
the board Of directors as bait to catch
investors? Did Mr.. Jones himself pay
par in cash money" for the stock that
he holds? Is his possession OF it, or any
part of ii. due to the fact that he is In
1uential in the finance committee of the
United States Senate, and by virtue Of
his position there could do his company,
or Mr.. Searles', or almost any company
Of the kind in which he or Mr.. Searles
might have an interest, very important
service at a very critical time?
We have never known a gentleman OF
Mr.. Jones' financial prospects to grow
rich suddenly except by some means Of
this kind. In other words, and TO be
plain, il is fair TO infer, until Mr.. Jones
denies it, that he is 'it," neither on ac-
count OF his cash, nor his property, nor
some invention of demonstrated value,
but rather on account Of his pull or his
swing. We say that il is fair to infer
this until Mr.. Jones denies it, because
Mr.. Jones, by reason OF his unjust at
lacks upon leading Republicans puts
himself very much in the public eye and
invites attack from any quarter. Mr..
Jones has no business to live in a glass
house with perfect safety il he is going
to keep throwing such large stones.

MANUFACTURERS have
A VERY BUSY Year.
Exports Under the Dingley Law
Show Vast Growth.
The DEMAND for Raw Material Is So
Great that Imports Of Manufactur.
ers' Material Have Also
Greatly Increased.

The manufacturers Of the United
States are making their greatest record
in this closing year Of the century. Busy
workshops, smoking chimneys, factories
running on double time and, in some
cases, the full twenty-four hours with
three shifts Of hands, are an evidence OF
this; but exact proof is found in the re-
port Of the chief of the bureau Of stats
tics, Just issued, which shows an enor-
nous increase in the importation OF the
raw materials which they use in manu-
featuring and an equally enormous in
crease in the expectation OF finished man
ufactures. Importations of manufacture
ers' materials in the fiscal year 1900
were more than double those in the fiscal
year 1894 and, during the three fiscal
years in which the Dingley law has been
in operation, have exceeded, by more
than 100000 900, the imports OF raw
materials in the three years in which
the Wilson law was In operation, while
the expectations of finished manufac-
lures, in the three years under the Ding
ley law, have exceeded, by more than
$500, O00, 900, the expectations of manu-
features in the three years under the
Wilson law.
Evidence from c.dciaI Sources.
Here are the official figures showing
the importation of manufacturers ma
terials and expectations Of manufactures
in the fiscal years 1895, 1896 and 1897,
all OF which were under the Wilson low
tariff, contrasted with those during the
fiscal years 1893, 1899 and 1900, which
were under the Dingley tariff. The VIII
son tariff, It will be remembered, went
into operation Aug. 2S. 1894. and the
Dingley tariff on July PC, 1897, so that
the fiscal years ending June 80, 1895.
1896 and 1897, were practically all with

Who has his way OF doing things,

But why does Bryan hate him so,

Is it because he's old and slow,
And isn't up to date?
Oh, no, my son. you bet your life
He's not so very slow,
For when his shoulders to the wheel
The cart is bound to 20.
The reason why she Popocrats

Growth of Foreign Conn mcrce.

Our foreign commerce under Republi-
can administration in 1900 was worth
S2,244, 1913, 543; under Democratic free
trade administration In 1895 It was worth
only 81 ,539.50s, 1S9, an increase Of seven

in the year ending June 80. 1900, was
500, S79,SS9. In the year 1896 the fail

be seen that the amount lost Is only

Total SIPS, SCI, $50

The above table Is worthy of careful
study. We have been hearing, for years,
from Democratic orators first, that free
raw materials would help the manufac-
turers, and, second, that protective
tariff destroys our chances In foreign
markets, yet It will be seen by this table
that the importations Of articles in a
crude condition for use In domestic in
dustries' amouated, In the three years
under the Wilson free trade law, to $685.
405, 1852, while in the three years under
the Dingley protective tariff they amount
to SIPS, S21 ,352. Look also at the narrow
column, which Indicates the percentages
OF the total imports which these raw ma
terials form. and you viii see that they
form a much greater proportion OF the to-
tai Imports under the Republican system
Of protection than under the Democratic
system OF free trade. Why? The an
swer Is simple enough. Under the Dem
ocratic low tariff, absolute free trade In
some particulars, many manufacturers
were compelled either to close their
works or reduce their output owing to
the heavy importation of manufactures
from abroad under the low tariff rates.
Hence the small consumption Of raw
material in manufacturing. This differ
ence OF more than sf00.Oo0,000 in the
quantity OF raw materials imported In the
three years means difference OF several
hundred millions OF dollars in the amount
Of goods manufactured and hundreds OF
millions In the amount OF money paid to
wage earners in the various manufactur-
ing lines.

New Department at Yale.

New Haven, Gonna new depart
ment has just been opened at Yale
where students of limited means can
secure an education by their own labor
Prof. c. L. Kicell has been appointed
head of the new department, which is
a sort of employment agency. He Will
be a go-between the Yale men who need
assistance and the merchants who are
willing to give them work. Professor
Keel will also investigate applications
for remission of tuition, scholarship,
fellOwships, the kind of employment
offered and the manner in which the
work is done by the Yale applicant
The opportunities for paying ex-
penses at Yale are classified as follows
by the faculty: Prizes and scholar
ships, memberships and choir work,
tutoring, remission of tuition, waiting
on table, organizing eating clubs, act
ing as subscription agents, newspaper
writing, typewriting and stenography,
teaching in the schools, positions as
clerks, telegraphers, conductors and
|, motormen on street cars, ushers, ticket
sellers at theaters and concert halls,
and caring for yards, furnaces or resi-
| dences of private families in the city.
The force of men employed for cleo
trical work by the Yale athletic organ
2 ization is now recruited almost entire
g ly from undergraduates. In the theo-
! logical school a new system goes into
l effect today in the distribution of the
money paid to the undergraduates. The
S divinity students will make pastoral
: visits, lead prayer meetings, call upon
+ the sick, take charge of city missions
y and will be paid part or the whole OF
+ their scholarships expenses, according
e to the amount of the work they do.
n This policy of distribution of scholar
S ship funds was made at the demand of
S President Hadley, who believes that the
system formerly in vogue tended to
pauperize the students.
The Yale officials state that never
> before have there been as many chances
: for earning a part or all of the college
expenses as at present The class
o which was graduated last June shows
that of 327 members Is entirely paid
their expenses, 10 others nearly all and
= total of 50 paid large part of their

the way through two claims, and Civ

The Spokane Industrial Exposition,
will be held this year from Octo-
Der I'd to the 10th inclusive. The man.
agement is new and many new features
are to be added. Mr.. w. f. Hawley,
secretary of the Chamber of Commerce,
is secretary and manager. The work
of preparing for the Exposition was
commenced earlier than ever before and
in consequence many improvements are
promised. 1t has been decided to re
duce the admission fee from the twenty
five cents of last year to fifteen cents,
which will undoubtedly make the at
tendance larger than ever before.
Many new entertainment features al
ready have been secured, the greatest
of which is the Royal Marine Band of
Italy, forty pieces, twelve soloists and
one tenor singer. This is the finest
musical aggregation which ever came
west and only was secured because they
desired to make trip to San Francisco.
Music lovers of the east have gone mad
over the magnificent music of this
band.
Among a long list of entertainers

as well as instruction of the visitors to
the fair, in addition to the band. two
or three famous performers have won
worldwide regulations. Among these
is Atlantic. who in beautiful flowing
robes performs wonderful feats of fire
dancing. all the while posing upon a
large globe of fire which rolls about the
stage under the control of the beautiful
dancer. Little Nero, the wonderful 4
year-old tight-wire walker, is another
big attraction.

of money has been appropriated fol
cash prizes, and in addition some splen
, did special premiums are offered. As
usual generous cash prizes will b'
