THE NEW GRIP.

ThelNsw York Sun comments on the
new grip. as it has been called, and says
it possesses all the Inconvenience Of
the more familiar disease with the added
discomfort that comes from its way Of
concentrating all its suf1erings into q
short space of tima. According to ply
siciansit is not allied in any way with
the famous influenza, but it is merely a
form of cold that happens to be more
common this year than ever before.

said DOCTOR ''and the most striking
feature of it is tbs rapidity with which
all the symptoms of the most serious
influenza are felt.
ssTWa, sr three hours after the patient
has taken cold the pains that spread
through the body and the distress thai
he experiences in every way are com
parable only to the feelings OF a person

AN HONEST STATEMENT.

The following is an advertisement in
the Port Huron Herald of one of the
leading coal and wood merchants of
that city:
''Does the foreigner pay the tax?
Why Of course he does.
''We had a car of slivers come over
from Canada that cost $40 over there.
When it got out to the tunnel, on this
side, U. s. customs collected $29 duty
on that car, and as it has always been
understood that the foreigner pays the
tax, we have been waiting patiently for
some blooming foreigner to come over
and cough up this S29.
"We have kept open house for the
last four days, expecting mad rush of
foreigners, tumbling over one another,
to get in and pay this tax; but that's q
bluff. We have gotto add that 500 onto
that $40 car Of slivers, and the people
will have to pay for the slivers and the
tariff and freight, and that makes them
cost little more than what we have
been selling them for; but we do not
care, we love the people.
"If we advance the price of them they
would laugh at us, so we are going to
sell them little less than cost, just to
oblige our customers; but we think il
blame mean of the old foreigner that be
did not come in and pay that tax. But
when people want things from our Goa
and wood yard they have got to have
them, tariff or no tariff, and we are mo-
going to soak the people because the
tariff laws soak US and the foreigner fail
to perform his duties. But what we lost
on the peanut we make up on the ba
mana; but slivers we must have"

President Roosevelt has not been in
his present position long, but there is no
longer p1etense that the course of the
executive and congress will run in the
line marked out by the late President
McKinley's Buffalo speech. 1t was
ridiculous at the start to assume that
Mr.. Roossvelt's administration would
be mere trusteeship, and it was too
much to hope that the tariff barons
would allow congress to institute any
reform. Cincinnati Enquiries.

We have only one living president,
and we cannot possibly have more than
one more before March, 1905. A pecu-
liar interest thus attaches to the health
of Grover Cleveland, and any report
of his illness arouses serious appre-
hensions-happily dispelled at once
in this case. The ex-president has
now been long enough retired from
active public life for the ascerbities of
political controversies to soften, and
even his most earnest opponents in
the past are steadily coming to recog-
nize the sincerity, courage and patrl-
otism which always dictated his
course. Mr.. Cleveland should have
many years yet before him, and he al
ready has the assurance that old age
will be rendered happy by the general
recognition that he was one of the
strongest executives the nation has
ever had. New York Evening Post.

Affairs in the Philippines are in q
muddled condition and may call for
the Intervention of the president. The
military authorities and the civil com.
mission at Manila have their differences.
There is growing impression in Wash
ington, according to dispatches to the
Philapelphia Ledger, that the president
will find it necessary to undo much of
the work of the Taft commission, and
again put the military in charge. How
much truth there is in these reports it is
impossible to say, because OF the abso-
lutte secrecy maintained by those con-
cerned. This much is plain, that the
fghtingis going on steadily, and that
the Spanish reconcentrado policy Of
starving all the inhabitants of Samar to
death is being effectively carried out by
General j. II. Smiths troops, that
officer having declined to accede to the
requests Of heads OF towns to give rice
to their suffering townspeople. This
"inhuman conduct" as we called it in
1898, is exactly what we went to war
with Spain about.

The voting machine has been used in
several of the smaller cities of New York
with satisfactory results but it was tried
in one Of the Greater New York precincts
for the frst time at the recent election.
The results, in tabulated form were
known fifteen minutes after the polls
closed. The voting machine has stood
so many tests, demonstrated its eff
ciency in every instance that the wonder
is that it is not in general use at every
election. 1t has been legalized in many
Of the states and is certainly device

AnoIr AIR COMPARISONS.

The altitude where the compressor is to operate is an important factor be- cause it effec,S it's capacity to greater or lesser extent, according to the el5- vation. As the density Cf the atm . sphere decreases with the altitude, a compressor located at a high altitude takes in less air at each revolution, that is to say, the air taken in is at lower pressure, hence the early part oi each stroke is occupied in compressing the air from the lower density Gp to the normal sea level prt ssure of l475 pounds, and the vJumetrc capacity of the air cylinder is correspundingly Diminished. The power required to drive the same compressor is also less than at sea level, but the decrease in power required is not in as great q ratio as the reduction in capacity
 Therefore, conipressors to be used at hlsh attitudes should have the steam and air cylinders properly prop rtonsd to meet the varying conditions at diff f-LeEt r.aces.-W Western Mining World

THE SEARCH FOR COPPER.

The search for copper goes on with unremitting zeal. Rumors of the inter- national copper trusts. which have been from time to time floated, only to be contradicted later, stimulate the search rather than discourage it. The irresistible allurement is ever present in the mind of the prospector, promoter and investor that mining for copper is paying larger dividends than the search Tor any other mineral known. Its dis ribution is 90 general in the earth s formation that a monopoly in produc- tiCn is impossible, un:ess accompanied also by a monopoly in consumption. Thus, to organize a trust which would be effective in regulating the searcn, production and consumption of copper. 1t would have to be more stupen6 ous than any other industrial and financial combination ever yet formed in the worlds history.
 Arizona and Sonora are one of the fields in which the search for copper IS progressing with the greatest activ- ity. There seems to be no limit to the amount of capital which is ready to be invested in it wherever there is a req sonable promise of fair return.

FLORIDA'S DIVORCE LAW.

The state of Florida has gained an unenviable reputation for its laws through the marriage of Millionaire Flagier. In no other Commonwea, tn, to our Knowledge, and in no civilized for eign land, is the mental aff'ict.on Of either party to a marriage held to be just or proper ground for divorce. Like physical disease a disease of the mind is q sorry misfortune outside the con- trol of the victim of the malady. Di- vorce fer a lingering disorder of the body is wholly impermissable. and so it must be considered to be in cases of mental breakdown. Florida's law is not founded on principles of reason or justice, which should form the basis for all law. and it seems to have been passed to meet the need and at the be- hest of a single individual. Now that it has served its end the legislature should be manly enough to repeal this unusual statute, that the reputation of the state shall suffer no harm from scandals of the same character here after-Philads slphia Times.
