Senator Beveridges speech on the
Philippines proves him to be an earnest
believer in American destiny.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.
Mr.. Beverages speech contains many
Of those striking passages which get
into books Of orations useful to young
men and women studying the elocu-
tionary art-Indianapelis News.
The speech delivered in the Senate
by Mr. Beveridge Of Indiana is the
clearest exposition Of the Philippine
question that has yet been made. 1t is
a complete statement of the American
position.-New York Sun.
Senator Beveridge puts the issue with
a force, backed by such facts as are
given in his speech, that will be con-
vincing to many minds that have been
in doubt as to the duty of the govern
ment in the premises.-Topeka Capital.
Mr.. Beveridge, in treating this sub
iect. has the advantage of careful, per-
sonal observations in the Philippines.
No amount Of reading or of inquiry
makes so deep or so accurate an i'm
preston on the mind as actually see
Washington Post.
Mr.. Beveridge's address is ore Of the
most intelligent, sincere, and authorita-
tive yet made on the Philippine ques-
ton, and it will have special weight, in
asmuch as it comes from a man whose
investigations have been based upon
desire to inform himself thoroughly on
the most important question before the
country at tie time of taking his seat

Mystery of Missing Books.

1t has been discovered that the missing
books of ex-Sheriff Isenring, who is also
missing, were in the county jail at Mil
waukee until few days ago. They were
in trunk in the office of the sheriff and
the vaults and rooms were ransacked in
search of them. The other day man
called with a note alleged ito be from ex-
Deputy Bottenberg asking for the little
old trunk in the sheriff's Office. 1t was
delivered to him and he at once drove
away with it. After that it was discov-
cred that the much-sought for books were
in the trunk. 1t is now estimated that
the shortage will exceed $1,000.

AnI1nwise Suggestion.

The prospect of a large surplus at the
end of the present fiscal year has al
ready started talk as to the propriety
of reducing the revenue. This is al
ways plausible suggestion because it
implies reduction of taxes, but when
the taxes are easily borne and little
felt, then repeal Is of very doubtful
wisdom, especially if the revenue thus
cut off may be needed in the near fu-
ture. The repeal of the duty on tea
and coffee did not reduce the price of
those articles to consumers a particle,
and there have been times since it was
done when the government needed the
revenue thus unwisely cut off. The
prospective surplus this year may ba
due to exceptional conditions, and next
year or the year after may show
much smaller surplus, or none at all.
Indeed, says the Indianapolis Journal,
the surplus may not be nearly as large
six months hence as it now promises
to be. The suggestion for speedy re-
duction of revenue is unwise.

The Bryan Anomaly.

'The Bryan situation" says the
Springfield Republican, lis strictly
unique. The less his prospects Of cleo
ton the tighter grows his grip on the
nomination. For the first time in our
political history great party sits wor-
shipfully at the feet Of a man and does
little or nothing to oppose leadership
which few believe can result in vic
tory"
The very impossibility Of success
with Bryan explains the general ac-
Quiescence in his candidacy. Demo-
Gratis like Croker and German and
Morgan have not been hypnotized nor
enthralled by Bryan. They would
have no hesitation in organizing a re-
volt against him if they could see any
profit in such a movement. But they
understand that the effect Of that pol
icy would be to displease and ALLEVIATE
the Democrats who really believe in
Bryan. That result may return to
plague the anti Bryan Democrats when
the time comes to reconstruct the
party.
The seeming pliancy in the hands of
Bryan of the Democrats who are at
variance with him on various policies
of government means simply this:
They know that the Democrats are
bound to lose in 1900. Bryan is the
man they have chosen to go down with
his party. A second defeat will wipe
him out utterly as political factor.
He will be buried under free silver and
anti-expansion, and then the Democrats
who favor conservative economics and
who believe in the United States can
reorganize the party on a rational and
patriotic basis.
That is really all there is to what the
Springfield Republican appears to re-
gard as wonderful political anomaly.

Snow Is Timely.

Snow in the northwestern part of the
State proves of great benefit to loggers.
1t relieves an embarrassing situation
among sawmill men, log jobbers, tie and
stave men, who were becoming alarmed
lest it would be impossible to bank the
enormous cut of logs and bolts now on
skids, owing to lack of snow. This in
sures good business in all lines for the
coming season. 1t will prevent hard
wood lumber famine.

cashier Of a Hayward bank at a. NJ,

to Nelson and left together. Nelson has
never been seen alive since. Buell. re-
turned to his home the morning OF the
18th, claiming that Nelson was hidden IN
the woods. He took pail containing
breakfast for Nelson, and, with shot-
gun over his shoulder, started to carry
his breakfast to him. Buell. returned
home after noon in a nervous condltlon.
About three months later Buell., who had
been very poor, bought farm for $4OO
and showed other significant evidences
of change in his financial condltlon.
Several months afterward a skeleton was
found in the woods. The shoes on the
skeleton and trousers and other clothing
