WORTHY OF PRESERVATION.

The Chicago Tribune, in discussing
the plan proposed in the Alabama
constitutional convention for the dis
reimbursement of the negro, SAYS:
Should it be adopted few protests
will be heard. There is a pretty gen.
eral agreement now that the 18th
amendment cannot be made to apply
in the states for the especial benefit
of whose colored citizens it was
framed"
The Bloomington Paragraph, an
other republican paper. referring to
the same subject, says:
The southern plan of dealing with
the negro suffrage question is certain
ly receiving remarkable Endorsement
in quarters where only few years
ago 1t was condemned. There is no
other public question in fact in which
there has been such a marked change
of opinion in the north as in this
suffrage question. DR.. Pan khurst. OF
New York, has recently declared that
the s iuthern man has no use for the
negro and tells the truth about it,
while the northern man has no use
for the negro aud lies about il. II
begins to look as though the frank
ness of the southern man in vcicing
his race prejudice is being deemed
worthy of imitation in the north"
These comments from some of the
best republican sources in Illinois are
worthy of preservation for future ref
erence when in the heat of campaign
the republican howl of indignation
and profession of love for the negro
is offered. anent the Alabama case.

THE state board of arbitration has
been officially notified of the strike

IL is probable that the matter will Sbe

VOLUNTEERS PASS INTO HISTORY.

With the mastering out of the vol
unteer army which was raised, under
the authority of an act of congress,
for two years service in the Philip
pines another typical American mi
litant force passes into history. This
force of 35, 600 young Americans was
recruited by voluntary enlistment
from all sections of the union. 1t
was a raw and unframed body, and
yet it was destined for the most ar
duous service that soldiers can know.
There is no more trying campaign
than that in an euemy's country.
where the resistance is conducted
along lines of guerrilla tactics. where
the noncom Blatant population is hos
tile to the invading force. where all
supplies and munitions of war must
come from home base many thous-
ands of miles distant from the scene
of active operations. Add to this the
change from the temperature to the
tropic zone, and the serious nature of
the work confronted by the volunteer
army will be appreciated.
Yet. as the st. Louis Republic we'll
observes: This army of volunteers
gave an excellent account of itself
throughout all the months of it's ser
vice in the Philippines. Officers OF
the American regular establishment
have repeatedly testified that the vel.
unteers camPaigned and fought like
seasoned regulars. Two volunteer
commands in particular, the 20th
Kansas infantry and the Utah bat
terry, covered themselves with glory
for daring service. Other voluntee,
commands were close seconds to these
two in the fine quality of service
rendered. The raw recruits who sailed
for the Philippines wearing Uncle
Sans blue were good soldiers and re-
liable fighting men from the very
start 1t was in their blood.
at is this ability of the young
American to become a soldier at short
notice which largely does away with
the necessity for big standing army.
We have something like 10000, 000
available fighting men who are more
useful in other pursuits until neces-
sity for fighting arises. When need
arises they will make the finest
army the world ever saw"

PROSPECTS, OF THE HARVEST MOON

II the latest advices from France
and Germany are correct, our farmers
who have sown wheat with a liberal
hand will have nothing to do in the
fall but laugh and grow fat" Con-
sui General Mason sends word from
Berlin that ''the cereal harvests of
1901 in Prussia will show the largest
aud most disastrous deficit that has
been recorded in recent years" He
estimates that the shortage of bread
making grain in Prussia alone will be
1.766, 900 tons, worth at the present
price $6I, 900. 900. From Paris comes
the report that the French wheat crop
will be so deficient as to make neces-
sary the importation of at least &c.
600, 900 bushels, worth at the present
price about $26. 900. 900.
Here, then, is prospective foreign
demand for nearly 800, 900. 0C0 worth
of American grain over and above the
demand of last year. In addition the
Russian and Argentine wheat crops
are both reported to be less than last
year. Our own wheat crop Is esti-
mated by the New York World as
promising something over 700, goo. 900

TWENTY years ago it was estimated
that 200, 900 persons crossed London
bridge daily. $50, 900 on-foot and the
rest in vehicles. With the growth of
population these mum bers have al
most doubled, in spite of the relief
afforded by the building of the tower
bridge. half q mile down stream. 1t
has, therefore, become an urgent
matter to increase the capacity OF the
older bridge, and it has now been de-
eided to accomplish this by means of
granite corbels. which will carry the
footway as projections over the water
on each side OF the bridge.

bushels, which is one-shird larger
than the crop of 1900.
Whether, however, the present
price per bushel will be maintained,
increased or lowered, depends upon
conditions that cannot now be fore
seen. But, as things look now, it is
altogether probable that American
wheat will rule the world next fall.
