The story tina Americans have struck
rich gold fields In the island OF Luzon is
clouded by the recollection that the Span
ish. who possessed the islards for four
hundred years. were gold hunters and. in
their time. good miners. Had there been
gold in the rocks or I'm the streams OF the
island OF Luzon IL would seem that the
Spaniards would have discovered the
mines n would, as in Mexico, Peru and
other countries. have driven the natives
into them TO work. The fact that no ancient
mines or remains of reduction works have
been reported would indicate that the
Spaniards have never considered the Phil
ippines a gold or silver producing country
However. old as the world Is, and long as
has been the search for gold. great finds
continue to be made. South Africa. Alaska
ard Colorado may be said to have begun
their yield In the last half century, and
California and Australia are but little
older. 1t would be rash TO say that there

Notwithstanding losses variously esti-
mated at from 5000 to $1,000 killed
wounded and captured. They have
able men in command, and as they fall
back to positions long since selected
and fortified it is to be expected that
the English advance will be warmly
contested.
In addition the Beers have an adj
vantage in the coming winter season.
The South African summer Is over and
the autumn is far advanced. Winter
is even now making itself felt, for frost
and snow appear on the velts and kop-
jes from April to September. The
ground is generally high, and the keen
winds from the south will be severely
felt by the British army, many thous-
ands of which must still be clothed in
kaiki. The T%ransvaal winter is about
such a one as we in America exper-
fence along the latitude of st. Louis,
Cincinnati, Wheeling and Pittsburg.
The mean temperature at Pretoria for
June is 40 degrees, and at st. Louis, In
January, it is 81, SO a comparison may
be made. Further south, In the Free
State mountains, 1t is colder still. 1t
will thus be seer that the English are
about to enter upon a task which will
involve much of hardship. The war
is by no means over.

THE CASE OF EATON.

The decision of the State Pardon
Board that William Eaton was not en-
titled to a pardon, will be endorsed by
the business men Of Wheeling with
out reserve. Eaton's career has not
been one to entitle him to considera-
ton. He was dangerous to the COM
munity as we'll as a knave. 1t was
through no fault of his that the elab-
crate preparations he made for a con-
flagration. at the southeast corner of
Main street and Alley nine did not
involve the destruction of blocks of
buildings and the loss of millions of
dollars, and lives as well. The proof
of his guilt was overwhelming and
there is no reason why he should not
serve out the punishment inflicted up
on him by the law. An impartial jury
found William Eaton guilty of a grave
crime, and he has no legitimate claim
to mercy.

FAMINE

The immense corn shipment to be
made by America for the relief of
the starving millions in India Is very
creditable to our people, but after all
it may fail as a competent measure
of relief because of the nature of the
food. Rice would have been very
much better. The native of the fam
inc district of India is not familiar
with the use of hard grains" What
he wants in "~paddy"-rice, and he
will often sit down In a corner and
starve within sight and reach of I'M
limited corn, wheat, oats, rye or bar
ley. Paddy" he understands and can
use, for his forefathers for countless
generations lived upon practically
nothing else. But corn to him is a
strange and unknown means OF susie
nance, and as a rule your real India
native wants none of it. Corn would be
a good thing to send to the hill tribes,
if they were in distress, but scarcely
to the people of the plains-the rice
eaters.

GAMBLING WITH A TRUST.

New York Mail and Express.
When the executive head of a great cor
p~orat.on engages in a conspiracy that has
stock-jobbing or price-wrecking as its pur-
pose, it rests with the Board of Directors
to say, and say promptly, whether they
condone or condemn his actions. They
cannot evade responsibility. They must
either openly sustain or as openly denounce
such a policy. It is not only their prov
ince but their imperative duty to do so.
This IS precisely the situation that con-
fronts the directors of the American Steel
and Wire Company. Within the past week
they have seen twelve of their mills unex-
p~ectedly shut down and 10000 or 1900 men
deprived of work: they have seen the Sc
curities of the company drop from 10 to %
points, and they have listened to the pes
simistic u%tterances of the president of their
corporation regarding future trade condi-
tons.
The facts are that there Is nothing in the
condition of the iron and steel trade to
warrant such talk. On the contrary, pros
perity was never so well assured as it is
to-day. Hence the temporary closing Of
mills and the predictions of lower prices
could have had but one purpose in view,
and that was a gamble in stocks-a shame
less, coldblooded wrecking of prices for
the sake of personal profit. Wall street,
familiar as 1t IS with selfish schemes, has
seldom witnessed quite the like of this
one in the deliberate manner in which t
was carried On.
1t is not surprising, therefore, that there
is widespread condemnation Of the pro-
ceed.ng, or that a vigorous emand has
been made on the management to declare
whether 1t approves or disapproves. If
such scandals are to continue, then the
moral sense of the business community
will undoubtedly take the matter in hand,
and If that fails to bring about a return
of honesty and fair dealing, there remains
the final appeal for a law that be adequate
10 the situation.
