There will be general satisfaction
over the announcement that John w.
Mackay and other officers OF the Com.
mercial Gable Company have deter.
mined to span the Pacific Ocean with
u cable, and that the portion between
California and Hawaii IL to be com.
pleted within less than year. From
that point the submarine line will be
extended to the Philippine Islands as
rapidly as possible, so there IL a prOba.
bility that by the beginning Of 1904 1t
will be possible to send dispatches di.
rect from Washington to Manila over
an American cable. A cOmmendable
feature of the enterprise Is the fact that
the company disclaims any intention
OF asking for subsidy or guarantee OF
any kind. II this attitude Is maintain.
ed, and II the Commercial Pacific Com
pany goes ahead and completes Its
project without seeking any favOrs
from the Government. 1t will deserve
the popular approval ana interest
which will attend the undertaking.
There Is no reason why the Pacific
cable should not be profitable as a
strictly business enterprise. 1t will
open up direct communication with
Japan and China as well as with the
Philippines, and will shorten the dis
tance by about One-half. The owners OF
the new cable can afford to reduce the
rates from 30 to 90 per cent, which will
increase the volume of business and
attract much of that which now comes
by way of Europe. The Hawaiian link
is needed urgently by business interests
in the islands, and II the rates are not
eXorbltant this part of the line should
be specially remunerative. The Govern
ment dispatches both from Hawaii and
from the Philippines will be numerous.

law, an attorney has the right to
browbeat that witness, question his
truthfulness and in divers ways in

any attorney. He said further that
the attorney and he could settle
any differences outside the court in

previous tax mandates, contained

are not mistaken, was just as i'm

one third its value. 1t is most
plain that if the law be carried out

TO THE PUBLIC.

In pursuance to request of the Mckinley
National Memorial Association whose
statement to the public is published in
another column in this paper, we take
this method OF calling the attention of the
psople of Brunswick to the subject and to
ask their cooperation in this very lauda-
BILE undertaking.
1t is the purpose of the Association as
defined in the certificate of incorporation
to crest and maintain at Canton, Ohio, q
suita bic memorial to the late president,
aud to raise the necessary funds for that
purpose by popular subscription. AS
stated by the Board of Trustees of the
Associstio "the memorial is to be in the
highest sense the sincere expression of all
the people of the country of their love for
President Mckinley and of their admira-
tion for the qualities ex crossed so emil
nently in his life and deeds" AS they also
express it "It is the purpose to have the
offerings of the p ople voluntary with a
full opportunity to all to contribute"
Feeling confident that the people Of
Brunswick, who have shown that their
love for the late president and their grief
over the tragic ending of his noble career
was as sincere and heartfelt as that which
found expression elsewhere throughout
our stricken land, will desire to participate
in this great national undertaking, we do
not hesitate to ask in behalf of the associa-
tion, their hearty corporation.
The following we'll known citizens of
Brunswick have been selected as a COM
