We are told that the aggregate ex-
penses of Admiral Schley for the court
of inquiry will be fully $4,000 alb
sorbing all his prize money gained by
his alertness and ability at Santiago
and almost absorbing his little private
fortune. II this is true it is a shame
full thing. This grizzled admiral has
served the republic for forty years.
Aud when he is about to
retire from active service he is
confronted with the ch srge Of neglect
of duty and cowardice. Can one i'm
agine the heart burnings and wound
ed sensitivenesS the hero of San
tiago must have suffered. The
name Of the brave admiral has been
rescued from obloquy, but at great
cost. 1t is the old illustration OF the
triumph of virtue twice won-won in
the deed and won in the name. But
virtue pays the bill both times and
thereon justice falls.

johnny on the Camel.

The camel is a large and homely ami
NAL and has warts on it's knees. You
can ride camel if You want ~, hut I
would rather pay 10 cents and walk.
Still, if anybody needs exercise and
has camel think he ought to ride
him. The camel is a very patient ami
NAL. He will chew his victuals five
minutes and still not have them ready
to swallow. but keeps on chewing. The
camel freQuents deserts and caravans
and has one or two Jumps on his back.
He is often spoken of in the Bible and
in "Ben-I Iur." We ought to read our
Bibles every day and be good. Once
there was a lion that dared a camel to
run race, and the camel took him up.
They ran three times around the gilt
tering arena, and neither one was
ahead, but when they dashed under
the wire on the homestretch the camel
Strengthened out his neck and won by
nearly six feet. The camel has three
compartments In his stomach, and his
hair is rNscful for making shawIs aud
paint brushes. JOHNNY.

The Pan-American congress, OF
which so much is expected, convened
in the city Of Mexico last week Near.
ly all the American states are repre-
sented. Venezuela and Colombia are
really in state OF war, though no
declaration of the same has ever been
made. Yet these countries will also
send delegates. James G. Blaine has
been in bis grave many year but he
it was who gave the initiative to all
Pan American cooperation. He
would have rejoiced to see this day.
Westward the course Of empire has
taken its way until westward has be-
come eastward. The Occident has
gone around the world to meet the
Orient. The next movement must be
southwark ard Mr. Blaine was the
first to see this inevitable tendency.
1t has taken years to educate this
coudtry into an understanding of the
possibilities of South America. And
while the United States has waited
E rope has gone in and won the trade
tne former ought to have. While We
have made a conquest Of Europe with
our manufactures Europe has made a
CONQUEST OF South Africa. The big c N.
tinent already has trade Of 1857, 000-
900 in imported goods and the United
States furnishes only about 10 per
cent of that amount. The showing
is humiliating. Germany, France and
England have cultivated our cousins
In the south to good effect. 1t is their
ca pital that has gone into the devel-
opment of the South American states.
They hold 80 per cent Of the trade
The congress ought to bring about a
better understanding between the big
republic and Its sister republics. The
latter cannot but be grateful to US for
for the protection afforded them by
our strenuous adherence to the Mon
roe doctrine. And yet there appears
to linger In the minds Of our Spanish.
American neighbors suspicion that
we have designs on them. The con.
gress ought to remove all vestige of
such suspicion.

Progress at Pekin.

Commissioner Rockhills report to the
State Department today that the final draft
of the Chinese protocol has been agreed
upon marks another of the stages through
which the negotiations at Pekin have been
slowly progressing for months. The other
day the reports stated that England had
balked at the draft of the agreement and
fears were aroused lest another serious
hitch had occurred. Today's bulletin allays
these fears conclusively, for Mr.. Rockhills 8
announcements have throughout been con-
servative and entirely trustworthy. He
states that the tariff of per cent Is to
be made effective on all goods shipped after
ten days after the signing of the final pro-
tocol. This will place China at once upon a
basis Of financial security, preventing a
crisis In her affairs through inability to
meet the requirements of the indemnity
agreements. An important concession to
American trade Is involved in the inclusion
Of -four in the free list, which will be Of
great advantage to the shippers of the Pa
citic coast.
