Jensen at all and is wanted by the
government authorities in this country
and Sweden. He Is John Albert Skoog,
q Swede, 35 years old, born in Stock
holm, and the son of prominent and
wealthy parents. He early began a
criminal career, and is pronounced by
officials of the United States secret SER
vice one of the most expert counter
feiters alive. In March of 1897 he es-
caped from the penitentiary at Joliet,
His, while serving sentence there for
making and passing counterfeit $40
bills. Skoog is wanted in Sweden for
making and passing a large number of
counterfeit 100 kroner notes, such as
This work was done early in 1898,
Skoog having gone to Sweden at once
after his escape from JOLIET.
AS a result of Skoog's arrest one of
the biggest raids in the history of the
secret service was made last night by
Chief Hazen. Following a clew which
he got from papers in Skoog's pocket,
the chief went to building in Grand
avenue, Brooklyn, and arrested Emil
Mobert, a Swede. One of the most
complete counterfeiting plants ever
found was discovered in the house.
The long sought plates for the SO
kroner notes of the Bank of Sweden
and the 100 kroner notes of the Bank
of Copenhagen were among those
found.

Great Teacher~

This will apply to the grocer as
we'll as in other branches of business.
Now, when we say that we have
sold half ton of one grade of coffee
without complaint, we mean this
to be the fact.
Well, our experience is just this:
we are not going to give an inferior
article because we have a good sale
ON this coffee; but we are going to
make it better for the same money.
This coffee will cost you 18c. a h.,
6 lbs. for 81.
When you use Chase & Sanborn' S
coffee you get satisfaction, because
they run uniform.

DUTY OF AMERICANS.

We hope that every American who
can attend the memuTIs. sete.>ts Il
honor of Queen Victoria, whom our re-
ligious contemporary, The Friend, fifty
says was the common mother of all
Anglo-Saxons, will make a point of be-
ing present.
The ties that bind the Anglo Saxon
peoples are becoming very close and Sc
cure. Old prejudices have nearly gone
and the late Queen did much to eX-
punge them from the memory of the
American people. To her influence and
that of her husband, the Prince Con-
sort, is due the fact that Great Britain
did not draw its sword for the Southern
Confederacy. Her kindness to Ameri-
can women whom marriage haC
brought into the ranks of the British
aristocracy was appreciated in thu
United States; and her personal mes
sages to the President in times of ma
tional affliction and grief were so full
of kindness of heart and womanly sin
certify that they made all Americans un
cover to her name. None of us can d.
too much honor to the memory of thi
great Queen; and none Of us SHOULD
withhold sympathy or good will to tn
kindred nation whose language, litera
ture. common law and modes of wor
ship are ours and which stand in lin
with us in the defense of the principle
of freedom.

Stowe begins with the sunny side OF

Abraham Lincoln preceded me in say

Niger to America in their ships and
sold him to the Southerners. think IT
extremely unkind that, having got their
money. they come down South In 1851
and annihilated property of their own
creation. But that is neither here nor
there. All the gentlemen of the South
in the days of Washington and Jeffer-
son were opposed to slavery. 1t was a
wholly monstrous and indefensible in
stitution. Even in 1861 the good mer
and women of the South were at heart

FREE sTATEs-AND SUBJECTS.

The Nation, which is as much oppos-
ed to expansion as it is to everything
else that stands for virile American
policy, lays down a current Atkinson
ian sentiment as follows:
Wayne MacVeagh is another of those
prominent Republicans who voted for
Mckinley in order to defeat Organism,
but who reserved the right to light the
policy of Imperialism more vigorously
than ever after the reelection of the Pres
ident Mr. MacVeagh accents the conclu-
sions reached by Froude, that If there
he one lesson which history clearly
teaches. it is that free nations cannot
govern subject provinces; and that II
such nation is unable or unwilling To
llet it's dependencies share its own Con-
stitution. the Constitution itself will fall
| in pieces from mere incompetence for its
duties.
The authorities quoted are hlgh pu'
| their plea takes too much for granted
! 1t is not true that free nations cannon
govern subject provinces; or that the
constitutions of such States must fal
| if they are not shared with dependen
peoples. Great Britain is as free as the
United States; it's sovereign has les:
| real power than the American Pres1
dent yet it rules and has long ruled {
vast, outlying empire, whose inhabl
ltants have no seats in the Imperial Far
Iliament and it has done so successful
lly. To call up vision of Great Britain
and India or Great Britain and tn
lcrown colonies, is TO refute the precep
Eof Froude and the theories of Wayn
McVeagh.
We might add, in the light of history
that the only successful rulers OF sun
Iject provinces are free States. Spain
an autocracy, misgoverned and lost a
empire; Russia, an autocracy, ma
| never taken over province but to rul
it, as Finland and Manchuria are be
: ing ruined today; Germany's coloni;
: tests do not show as good results 2
