STANDARD OIL STOCK.
Chicago Record.

Standard oil stock paid dividends
the other day amounting to $4,000
900. Standard oil stock is more
desirable thing to have than a city

and the emoluments are about equal.
but there are no campaign assess
ments with the oil stock, no uncertain
ty at election time, and no sitting up
all night for the returns to find out
whether reform and an office have
| triumphed or whether the empire and
the other fellow won. The man with
small bunch Of Standard oil stock
never fears rainy day. On his
rainy days it rains oil and he just

WILLING TO WAR WITH RUSSIA
Japan, However, Is Unable to Secure
Money to Pay Powder Bill.

WASHINGTON. March 23.-Russia
and Japan have been on the verge of
war several times within the last five
years, since Russia interfered in 1896
and prevented Japan from enjoying
the fruits of the victory over China,
but they were never so near hostili-
ties as now, and in the opinion of well
informed diplomatists would be fight
ing this summer II Japan could get
the money to pay the powder bill
1t so happens that the mikados cab
met and parliament are at odds, par
ticularly the hose of lords, which re-
fuses to vote the military supplies
desired by Count Ito, the prime min
lister, or authorize a loan, which is
necessary to furnish the sinews of
war.
Great Britain is equally embarras-
sed and cannot interfere in Manchu-
ria because her fighting force is oc-
cupied in South Africa, and her re
cent experience extending the bless
ings of civilization down in that coun-
try has been so expensive that the
taxpayers of England cannot stand
any greater strain. Arnold Foster,
secretary of the admiralty. in explain
ing the navy estimates in parliament
the other day, showed that it cost Is
shillings per capita for every man,
woman and child in the United King
dom to maintain British supremacy
upon the seas. without taking into
consideration the expenses of the gov
ernment. This is equivalent to an
average tax of 1915 for the British
navy alone, while the average in the
United States for all branches of our
government, even with the 81 100000
appropriations of the current year, is
only $639 a year. and before the
Spanish war was only about 50.
There is no doubt that Great Brit
ain. Germany and Japan have vigor
ously protested against the Manchu
ria treaty. both to the Chinese and
the Russian governments, and have
notified the Chinese envoys at Pekin
that If Russia is given Manchuria each
of them will expect an equal slice of
the empire.
Japan is particularly determined in
opposition to Russian aggression, and
IL matters go much further Count Ito
will call for a dissolution of the pres
ent parliament and appeal to the peo
pie for the election OF another in the
hope of getting one that will be more
willing to vote money for war pur
poses.

FRENCH ARTILLERY PRACTICE.
Recent Tests Show High Degree Of
Perfection In Gunnery,

Artillery experiments. which have
Just been carried out at Harneur. In
France, In the presence of represent
atives of the ministers of war and
marine. were watched with eager at
tention by foreign military and naval
attaches. The opinion of experts is
that the French artillery in precision
and rapidity of fire. is at present un-
auestionably in advance OF all 9th.
ers.
Secrecy is maintained in regard to
the several mechanical points of me-
chanism, but professional paper
gives some highly interesting details:
and results of the experiments. Four
guns were tested-the 120-milimetcr
siege gun, which throws 47-pound
projeotile; the new 75-milimeter field
gun. with its f7-pound shrapnel, ami
two howitzers. The rate of fire of
the new field gun attained the uopre-
redented average OF thirty shots in
one minute and fifty seconds.
Even when fired at this rate the
shells do not necessarily fall on the
same spot, in spite OF the automatic
position. By mechanical manipula-
tion of the copper cage, which deter
mines the explosion of the shell, it
can be made to burst little earlier
or little later, and to deviate to the
right or left. 1t is possible in this
way, without sighting the gun or inter
fering with the rate of fire, to lot
with she'll in zig-zag fashion, a space
of ground 300 meters square. A sin
gle gun firing almost continuously
can thus spread havoc in "A column
of troops.
Special interest was taken by the
experts in the experiments with field
howitzeis. the utility of which. against
an intrenched enemy, after being con-
tested for time, is now considered
to be fully demonstrated. The dim-
Guilty of regulating the plunging fire
OF howitzers has been removed. and
absolute accuracy is now obtainable.

CHANGES OF PARTISAN BASE.

There has been shifting OF partisan
affiliations recently ameng prominent
personages S:.nators Harris OF Kan,
sas, Heitfeld OF Idaho, and Turner Of
Washington, all Populists. entered the
Democratic caucus in the recent ses.
sion of their chamber, and have de-
clared that henceforth they will act
with the Democrats. Senator Du-
bois of Idaho. recently Silver Repub-
lican, has taken similar step. Tur-
ner and DUBOIS were Republicans un-
til 1896. when they seeded with Tel
Ter and went over to the Bryanltes.
But the shiftings are not all to-
ward the Democratic side. Senators
Stewart and Jones Of Nevada, OK
Republicans, have returned to the old
faith. Senator Kyle of South Dako-
ia, previously a Populist and Inde.
pendent, has also allied himself with
the Republicans. Senator McLaurin
OF South Carolina, has left the Dem
ocracy and Joined the Republican par
ty. Ex-senator Caffery Of Louisiana
worked with the Republicans In the
election for state Offices last year.
He has been against his party on the
silver issue. It was said by his pO-
litical enemies that he voted for Nc
Kinley In 1896 and 1900. In fact
the drift to the Republicans in the
past few months has been much
greater than it has toward the Demo
Gratis.
The two most important minor po-
litical sects are thus In process Of dis
integration. Indeed. of one of them.
the Silver Republicans. there is scarce
ly anything left. All those who be
longed to that contingent have either
come back to the Republican party or
have allied themselves permanently
| with the Democrats, except Teller
| and a few others In this dissolu-
tion the Republicans have made
greater gains than the Democrats.
The Populists probably will never fig
ure in another canvass. AS all OF
them, no matter what their anteced
| ants were against the Republicans in
1892, 1896 and 1900, those. who. like
PETER and his element, come to the
Republicans are clear gain. The
disintegration of the Populists will
put the Republicans In majority In
Kansas, and Nebraska and all the 9th
er western states. The Republican
ascendancy which was regained in
1900 in Kansas and Nebraska prom
ises to be permanent 1t Is easy to
see that in this realignment Of the
partisan forces throughout the coun
try the Republicans are reasonably
certain to be large gainers.-St. Louis
