An amusing instance of unconscious
soliloquy during tete-a-tete with a
lady is told of the famous physician,
DIR. Friend. It was in the old convivial
days, and the doctor was summoned
one evening from a rather too festive
board to the bedside of lady patient.
He felt her pulse "secundem artem,"
but for the life of him could not count
its beats. Drunk, by Jove!" he
soliloquized, and pulled himself to-
gether sufficiently to order some
harmless mixture. His delight may
be imagined when the next morning.
instead of an indignant dismissal from
further attendance, he received from
his patient a confession that he had
diagnosed her complaint quite cor
rectly.-London Globe.

cratic national convention in its Kan
sas City platform, that all govern
ments instituted among men derive
their Just powers from the consent
of the governed; that any govern

the governed is tyranny" This was
the paramount issue, and the demo
Gratis of Maryland make it still para
mount issue, but with an exact reversal
of partisan position that would bewil-
der and stun any foreign gentleman
who was trying to get line on Amer
lean politics.
They say that peace. good order,
their personal safety, the proper de-
velopment of their material interests

monwealth by its intelligent white

completely at this touch. Govern.

as the prerogative of intelligent

WORLDS FINEST BUTTER.
Danish Product Is Superior to That
of Any other Coun-
try.

The butter of Denmark is consid-
cred superior to that of all other
countries, writes William +. Curtis,
in the Chicago Record-Heral It
brings the highest price in fancy
markets and can be found all over
the world in shops where luxuries
are sold. In South America, South
Africa, in the East and West Indies, in
India, Egypt and in tropical coun-
tries generally il Is used by epicures.
who pay 81 n pound for it in tins OF
No other country has been able to
produce butter that will stand the
changes of climate so well. IN Hol-
land and Sweden attempts are made
to compete with the Danish dairy
men, but the butter from these coun-
tries is worth only half as much, and
does not keep half as well. while the
efforts of dairymen in the United
States have practically failed, with q
few isolated exceptions. There is one
creamery in Iowa, believe, which
produces butter that stands the trop-
ic heat comparatively well, and will
melt and solidify as it passes from a
colder to warmer and then to a
colder climate, like the butter made
in Denmark.
Refrigerator ships are now found
on nearly all the big steamship
routes, and they can carry perish
ables as long and as far as necessary,
but butter shipped by the ordinary
cargo steamer usually melts and re-
mains in liquid state as long as it
is exposed to the tropc heat. When
it passes into the temperate zone
again it hardens and the change usu-
ally spoils it for the taste, entirely
destroying the flavor and leaving it
like ordinary grease or oil. The
Danes, however, produce butter
which will endure this ordeal with
out affecting its flavor or sweetness.
and they are the only people of
whom this may be said.
therefore it is the popular impress
sion that some secret process is used
either in the preparation or the pack
ing of their butter, and l was diligent
in trying to ascertain the facts.
/
that the Danish butter was made in
| the same manner and contained the
same ingredients that are found in
the buffers of other countries, ex-
cept that the Danish dairymen were
more patient and more careful in it's
preparation. There was no secret
1 process; no preservatives were used;
no chemical change was produced be-
fore packing. Nevertheless none of
the several butter packers in Copen-
hagen would allow me to inspect
their establishments. They explained
that strangers were not admitted un-
der any circumstances, although
there was no particular reason why
they should not be; that applications
from American dairymen to witness
butter packing in Denmark were nu-
merous and frequent, and were al
ways denied. This seemed to confirm
the stories of secret processes.

HOW ABOUT BRYANISM2
The Time to Write the Obituary. II
seems Has Not Yet
Arrived.

Are the ingenious gentlemen. dem
ocrats and republicans, who are say
ing that Organism is dead. absolutely
sure of their ground? Ohio recently
rejected Bryan personally by refusing
to indorse him or his platforms of
1896 and 1900, but il adopted plat
form which in many particulars was
equally as bad as anything which he
ever favored. Several other states in
their democratic conventions are ex-
pected to deny recognition to the Ne
braskan. There are great whoops of
ioy from the democratic reorganizers
all over the country at what they are
calling the death of Organism, but
are they sane or sincere in all this?
There is a strong probability that
in the states west of the Mississippi
there is powerful sentiment still in
favor of Bryan Missouri has many
Bryanites. Probably the Bryanite Sec
ton of the democracy in this state,
in Kansas, in Nebraska and in most
of the other commonwealth between
here and the Pacific is dominant in
that party. There are reorganizers in
the democratic party in Missouri. but
they are confined to st. Louis, Kan
sas City and St. Joseph. In the rural
districts they cannot be found.
Omaha may have many of them
among it's democratic element, but in
the rest of that state they are likely
to be scarce. The same Is true as re-
l. ha ..it IN fn N IL ~
gions of the rest Of the trans-Missis-
sippi states.
Then. too, If the democracy rejects
Bryan in 1904. as il probably will, it
will still be under the necessity of
framing radical platform. 1t can
not make conservative deliverance,
for that would be an imitation Of the
republican creed, and the people do
not like limitations in politics. The
democracy will be forced to combat
the republican party on many lines,
and this necessity will compel it to
put forward many follies and absurd
tiles which will be as bad as Bryan
ism, and some of them will probably
have to be taken from the Bryan
platforms. Moreover, Bryan himself
is going to stay in politics, as he has
frequently informed the country. and
he still has spell over the minds OF
many of the 6,5OO,OOO of men who
voted for him in two successive can
vases. The time to write the obitu-
airy of Organism will not, at the ear

DISGUISED WITH FREE TRADE
The Protection Policy Is Coming In
to Favor with English
Journals.

The economic policy of free trade,
which in this country has found it's
apologist i'm the democratic party, has
been fought off in the United States
by the arguments of facts and by
the facts of ballots. Great Britain
has been the standing illustration
used by free traders, but Great Brit
ain is getting the tired feeling over
that once-vaunted policy. So. con-
spicuous journal as the London
Daily Express openly declares for pro-
lection, and presents arguments
therefor which will be particularly
interesting to Americans because,
when presented by the republican
party. they have been accepted as the
basis for the protective policy of the
United States. The London Express
says:
The protective policy is worthy of sup
port:
l. Because there is no such thing as free
trade, ard other nations refuse 10 ADMIT
our merchandise free into their markets.
2. Because, under the aegis of protection
other nations have developed industries
which would not have been developed. or
not to such an extent, had they grantee
free admission to foreign manufactures
g. Because by so doing these other ma
lions have become wealthy and self-sup-
porting communities,
4. Because Englands Industrial suprem-
acy has vanished and her prosperity Is
gravely thre atened under her free Import
system and under the attacks OF protec-
ZIONIST nations, which attacks must DE
met by counter attacks. ~
5. Because economic self-containment,
particularly In the matter OF food supply,
is asnecessity to the well-being of any ma
zion, and in this country can only be Sc
cured by a return to protection.
s. Because the experience OF other ma
lions shows that manufacturing greatness
ard a big foreign trade are not incompati-
BILE with protection. even to agriculture.
I. Because the national revenue can best
be raised from import duties.
g. Because customs union VIII. as moth
ing else will, draw the empire together ana
promote the mutual prosperity and Loyal
cohesion of Its component parts.
Those who remember the great
tariff. debate between Elaine and
Gladstone will observe with special
interest the signs that the country
of Gladstone is beginning to approve
the policy of the party of Blaine.
Every such indication Is renewed
tribute to the wisdom of American
institutions as conducted by the re-
publican party and an added condem.
nation of the suicidal policy which the
democratic party would have fast
ened upon this country.-Troy Times

streaIxs ON Neptune.

Neptune, the most distant known
planet of the solar system, presents
to the telescope only small, green
ish disk on which no distinct mark
ings are visible. But during the past
year the great telescope of the naval
observatory, at Washington, has re-
vealed indications of the existence
of streaks on Neptune bearing re-
semblance to the belts of Jupiter. A
few years ago similar streaks were
seen on Uranus. Saturn also pos
sesses them, so that IL may be said
that cloud-like belts are q feature

THEY ARE CHANGING.
signs of n shift In the Democracy on
the Expansion Ques-
tiOn.


Is the democratic party preparing
to change front on the expansion
question? The signs of the times in.
dicate that il is. Editorials in dem
cratic newspapers and incidental re-
marks by party leaders all point that
way. 1t is true the Ohio democratic
convention, in repudiating Bryan and
Organism, declared against the an
nexation or retention of territories
''that imperil our national safety
without promoting our national well
fare" and announced that the demo-
cratic party always has opposed and
opposes now any expansion of the ma
tional boundaries not meant to carry
speedily to all inhabitants full equal
rights with ourselves. But it was APP
parent week after the convention
that this guarded statement of policy
was not to be accepted by party lead
ers in other states.
A newspaper supposed to speak for
the democratic party in Illinois says
that democratic reluctance to deal
courageously with the question of ex-
pansion is due to the fact that the
party is in opposition; that if demo-
Gratis were in power in Washington
they would have policy in regard
to newly-acquired American terri
tories which would be in harmony
with the practice of the party in the
past; that. as the case stands, demo
Gratis have fallen under the influence
of a respectable but undemocratic ele.
ment which is of the same caliber as
the class which during the GO years
Of democratic supremacy resisted ev'
cry stride which the republic made
toward it's natural and inevitable de-
ve,opment.'
Just so. That Is what republican
leaders said in 1898 and in 1899. Roose'
welt said very much the same thing In
1900. Democrats who voted for Me-
kinley on "the paramount issue" last
Year insisted that expansion was not
a party question. but an American
question. And yet 6,000,000 democrats
voted against the traditional demo
cratic policy. simply. as the party or
gan now explains, to be in opposition
But the organ goes further and in
sists that the democratic party shall
announce an expansion doctrine which
"they will not find in the walls of the
ancient federalists nor in the emotion
al cries of the anti-imperialists of this
day." but in the ordinance Of 1877. Oi
this it is said st is an interesting
fact that the government of the north
west territory. which sufficed for thou
sands of Americans for many years
was as arbitrary as any which has beer
established of late in the new posses
sions of the United States"
Two years ago such statements were
common in republican newspapers

THE OPIUM CASES
Che Yung, An Sing, An Wing and
 Fling Fling Tried Yesterday.

Two or three weeks ago four Chin csc were arrested by Deputy Consta- bes Porterie and Berreysa, three of them on the charge of buying opium, and one on the charge of weighing and selling the same and collecting money in payment for it. Trial of the cases has been postponed from time to time by agreement or consent of the at torneys.
 Yesterday the cases came up. the defendants being represented by Messrs. Cox and Franklin, and the dis trict attorney being assisted in the prosecution by MT. Morton. Che Yung is the name of the man arrested for keeping the joint, being the same Chinaman arrested on similar charge in January. The other defendants were An Sing, An Wing and Fling Fling.
 The prosecution introduced as wit nesses only the arresting officers. Mir. Porterie testified that he saw Che Yung sell the opium. weigh it, take the pay for it and put the money in the cash drawer. He also told how he rec

There was also on ex- hibition a small scale or balance which was captured at the same time and is used for weighing out the drug as the smoker buys 1t.
 The defense maintaired that, even if it were proved to the satisfaction of the court that Che Yung had sold opium, he was not amenable to the law, as he runs a store and pays li- cense for selling drugs and other mer- chandise. The case was taken under advisement and decision will be rem dered today.

A NEW FL DORADO
Rich Find Said to Have Been Made
 Near Tombstone.

A gold excitement Is reported near Gleeson. about twenty miles from Tombstone. which is destined to create quite furo in mining circles here abouts, says the Tombstone Pros pector. The strike caused a stam- pede in that direction. and all the available country has been located by the swarm of prospectors and miners who headed for the new field as soon as the news was heard,
 The strike Is reported about one mile from Gleeson in the foothills in that section. The gold is found in a tale formation, which is literally filled with the yellow metal. and when banned out leaves a surprising string err of gold in the gold pan. It is es- timated some of the gold found will easily assay into the thousands of dol lars per ton, and some of the enthus- lasts claim for 1t from S2,0O0 to $50C0 per ton.
 Some years ago party of prospec- tors were engaged in dry washing in this vicinity and made good wages from their clean-ups. and it Is now believed the discoverers have uncover ed the ledge from which the placer gold was found. The fortunate discov- erers are three miners whose names could not be learned, but who began on a good surface indication and sunk a shaft some thirty or forty feet, strik ing the find which has created the ex- citement. A few feet of work on the new discovery has shown it to be a bonanza, the extent of which is not yet known.
 The country has all been staked out and rush from Gleeson. Pearce and. hereabouts has resulted. Several shafts have been started and further developments are awaited.
