PROUD OF HIS WIFE.
Burt Benwarc, of vilIisca, Brings
Home from Manila n Charming
Filipino Bride.

Mrs. Carmen Benware, the wife of
Burt Benware, of Nillisca, is perhaps
the only Filipino woman in Iowa. She
was married to Mr.. Benware in the
Philippines and accompanied him on
his return to his native state. Mrs.
Benware is short, petite and alto
gether charming. Somewhat of a bru-
nette, but not by any means lacking in
beauty. She is possessed of an unu-
sually bright intellect, is vivacious
and intelligent conversationalist, and
it is said takes to American institu
tions with marked aptitude and avid
ity. The story of the courtship that
preceded the wedding of Mr.. Benware
and the beautiful Carmen de Perfectos
La Azora would read like compo-
site of "Paul and Virginia" and one of
Zola's novels. Mr.. Beware is very
much in love-with his Filipino bride
and proud of her beauty and intellect.
The story is as follows:
Benware went to the Philippines as a
private in the service of his Uncle Samuel.
and has the reputation of having been
good soldier and brave man. According
to the story, he fell madly In love, not
with Carmen, but with her sister, Sonora
Chica y Portuendo. Chica, being mar
ried, failed to respond to the affections
of the American. and his heart was cap
tured on the rebound by the charming Car
men. After his discharge from the service,
Benware, who was before enlistment an
engineer in the employ of the Burlington,
obtained employment as an engineer on a
Philippine railroad, married Senorita Car
men, and for a year ran an engine and
hearkened to the song of the nightingale
in the suburbs of Manila. Some six months
since, however, he returned to Iowa, bring
ing Carmen with him, and is now firing
on Co." engine out of Villisca.

BURN A BUILDING.
Meet Victory by an Unusual
Denomination.

Students at Grinnell, enthusiastic
in the result of the state meet, were
not satisfied with anything but the
widest expression. It required pan
demonium of noises, huge bonfire,
speeches and the burning of build
ing to furnish an outlet.
Upon the arrival of the team the
athletes were met by the entire stu
dent body and escorted to the cam
pus, where material for huge bon
fire had been prepared. All the whis-
ties and bells in the city were in full
operation and working overtime. At
the bonfire speeches were made by
faculty and alumni and the athletes
were greeted with tremendous ova-
tons, but this was not sufficient to
satisfy the graduates enthusiasm.
In South Grinnell was creamery
building which caught fire few days
ago and was partially burned. Per-
mission was obtained from the may
or to complete its destruction by fire.
The fire department. was called out
to prevent any danger to surround
ing buildings and the evening ex-
ercises were closed with wild DEM
onstration. The boys bought the
right to burn the building from the
owner,

Those lniunctions.

In the Delaware District Court last
week Judge Blair used some very
pointed remarks in dismissing the
cases against the Delaware county
druggists. The Judge refused to
listen to the arguments of the attor-
neys, but the cases were dismissed
and costs taxed up against the plain
tiffS.
The Judge, who is life long tenn
perance man, in his remarks dismiss
ing the cases censured the temperance
people very severely for importing
foreign attorneys and detectives to
ferret out violators of the law. He
expressed himself as having All album
dance of faith in the Delaware people
to enforce the law without the aid of
outsiders.
He also expressed surprise that
temperance people would attend court
for the purpose of influencing the
court in making his decision. Ac-
cording to the Delaware Co. News,
the Judge reviewed at some length
his former decisions on the liquor law
and made some very pointed remarks
on present methods. : Fayette County

IMPERIALISM AND SUGAR.
to the Annexation of
Cuba, and Why.

There seem to be some powerful
ened annexation of Cuba-and they
are influences with which we are all
familiar. The New York Press, which
holds the record as the most passion
ate protectionist publication in this
country, if not in the world, express
es the opinion that the annexation
of Cuba would be fatal to our pro-
tected sugar interests. Commenting
on statement in census bulletin
that "beet sugar manufacture is
commercial success in the United
States," the Press declares:
''This settles the larger part of our trop-
ical and colonial questions 1t prohibits
the annexation of Cuba to the United
States. 1t bans the abhorrent bargain
which the Planters society seeks to make
of the exchange of political freedom for
commercial monopoly. There will be no re-
duction of so per cent. or any per cent. of
the United States tariff on the chief Cuban
products"
We can think of nothing that
would do more to check the expan-
sion movement than decision of the
supreme court that the American
tariff extended throughout the length
and breadth of any territory subject
to the jurisdiction of this govern
ment. The fight for tariff on inn
ports into this country from Porto
Rico was made by men interested in
sugar and tobacco, who feared, not
merely free trade with Porto Rico,
but the probability of free trade
with the Philippines. And if these
gentlemen find that we cannot hold
territory and at the same time main
tain discriminating tariffs against
the people occupying that territory,
they will promptly join forces with
the Boston anti-imperialists. 1t is,
therefore, clear that the tariff ques-
ton is going to give us a good deal
of trouble in the work of carrying
our civilizing influence around the
world. We shall have to consider, not
simply the welfare of the people to
whom we propose to minister, and
that of the people of the United
+States generally, but also that OF
those for whose benefit we so cheer
fully tax ourselves. Thus the COLI.

When is a Philippine an American?

Wany interesting if not embarras-
sing questions are certain to arise out
of the befuddled state in which the
Supreme Court has left the conun-
drum, "When is territory Of the
United States not territory"
Ambassador Choate at London has
already had to say II pass" upon an
application made by Filipino for a
passport to travel on the continent.
When Mr.. Choate, who is not easily
nonplused by any new proposition,
was confronted by this everyday re-
quest he had to purse his lips and say
he would have to walt until he heard
from Washington.
Evidently he has not seen the text
OF the recent ruling of the Supreme
Court which makes Porto Rico an
American territory so far as foreign
relations are concerned, and foreign
to the protection Of the Constitution
FOR the purpose of taxation.
The ambassador finally issued the
passport sc. o. d. 49," with provist
that if the court decided that a Fill
pino is man without country thu
fee would be refunded and the pass
port would be in. G."

What is the object Of the presi-
dents tour?" is needlessly asked. Its
object is obvious. AT the cost of
private corporations the president is
electioneerlng for himself and the
party to which he belongs. A more
austere sense of propriety would have
forbidden such a junket except at his
own cost. But William Mckinley
has never shown that sense. He is
young enough to hope for another
presidential term even after going out
four years. He is complacent enough
to expect to break the unwritten law
of "no third term. Chicago Chron-

L The United States can now speak of
its colonies, it's dependencies if you
prefer. The flag which was hoisted
in the name of justice, humanity and
broadcast national liberty, is not back
ed up by the constitution, and stands
for taxation without representation,
corporate interests and trust privi-
leges. The constitution does not fol-
low the flag is the Republican doc
Urine of the new century, and that
the government that was instituted
"by the people and for the people" is
too good for our colonies. The Re
publicanism of Abe Lincoln has been
rutblessly assassinated by the red
hands of politicians who regard pri-
vate gain above public good, and has
been inferred with his hallowed dust.

Our recent acquisition of new terri
tory, which is justified by many on
our Possible Pom. the score. OF our
necessities as q
'',o"' rapidly multi p l y
ing race, has revived popular interest
in the discussion of the question as
to how many people, under present
condition of arts, could be supported
on the soil OIL the United States. By
the greatest possible economy and
utilization of our natural resources,
how large a population could supslst
on the products of our soil? Of
course, says the Chicago Record-Her-
aid, those who are familiar with the
vast unoccupied and undeveloped
tracts in our domain are not appre-
hensive considering the future SUBJ
sistence of the race. But the posi-
BILE population" of this country is
none the less interesting as topic
of economic investigation. The
Yangste valley in China, wi.A an area
of 60O,OOO,0O0 square miles, has pop
ulation of 17O,OOO,0O0, or over two per-
sons to the acre. Belgium, the most
densely populated country in Europe
has about $40 people to the square
mile, or less than one to an acre. For
the United States to support one per-
son to the acre would mean deep
and far-reaching transformation IN
utilization of the natural resources OF
the continent. According to the cen
sus of 1900 there are 152 persons to a
square miles in New York and 102 20
the square mile in Ohio. The Ohio
average if spread over the republic
would raise the population of the
United States to 400,000,0O0. 1t we
could reach the Chinese standards OF
economy, industry and temperance,
the United States could support on Its
1890, 100000 acres population OF
$500 100000. But at least 600,0OO,Ooo
| of these acres are arid, irreclaimable
and untillable and unfit for homes. II

this spring. He was a milk dealer
among the neighbors and becoming a
little short of milk one morning put
in some whiskey. The next morning
his customers took all the way from
three to five quarts each and he had
fifteen. chances to sell the cows that
gave that milk. On the succeeding
morning he found whole families Sit

They all had dishes with them and
took all the milk he had. There was
