ScHLEY IS CONDEMNED.

The decision of the Naval Court of
Inquiry which has been celebrating
on the merits and dement's of Rear
Admiral W. s. Schley for almost three
months, was made public on Saturday.
Admirals Benham and Ramsey for the
majority of the court, lind against
Schley on eleven counts. Their decis-
ion is summed up in finding that Ad-
miral Schley's conduct of the Santiago
campaign was characterized by vacilla-
ton, dilatoriDess and lack Of enter
prise.
Admiral Dewey, the greatest hero In
Naval history, submitted a minority
report. He says Admiral Sehley is en-
titled to the credit as commanding Of.
ficer for the capture and destruction of
the Spanish feet at Santiago.
In law and ethics the majority report
stands, but with the American people
Dewey's decision operpowers that OF
both of his associates.
The majority report might be ex'
planned from the fact that Admiral
Schley is q democrat.

When the order first went
into effect barring the APP

mails, unless one cent pos.
tage on each paper was paid,
j. A. Wayland, editor of the
Appeal, sent money to a
number of republican papers
and asked them to send him
a certain number of copies of
a certain issue. The papers
came but they did lot bear
postage stamps, but postage
was paid at the usual second.

ed the postmaster's attention
to it and that fellow Madden,
up at Washington, who is
doing the dirty work, was
put in a hole. He rescinded
the order. Things are COM
ing to a pretty pass when
papers are excluded from the
mails simply because they do
not sing republican music.

message Mr.. Roosevelt refers
to the deep and heartfelt
sorrow" occasioned in the
United States by the death
of Queen Victoria and of the
genuine sympathy" of the
American people because of
the death of the empress dow

have added, without doing
the least violence to the
truth, that the grief of the
American people because of
the death of the wife of
President Kruger, and the
American peoples sympathy
with the bereaved president
of the South African repub-
lie, were no less sincere than
the grief and sympathy felt
because of the death of eth

Such an expression from the
president would have been
entirely appropriate, because
the empress dowager was the

We CAN IGNORE

America Independent of the World
in Food Products,
50 SAYS SECRETARY WILSON
Any Effective Combination Against
the United States ViIl be an
Impossibility.

New York. July S.--secy Wilson of
the department OF agriculture is quoted
in a Washington dispatch to the Trib-
une as saying in an Interview about
the work his department is doing;
There is no doubt that this country
within few months will be in a posi-
tion to ignore every other nation on
the globe In the matter of food prod
ucts. We will produce within our own
domain everything that goes upon our
tables and upon our backs We will
then be, commercially and industrlally,
almost independent Of the other ma
lions Of the world. Hence any trade
combination which may be effected
against us Will count for nothing.
Whenever we get ready We can come
pretty near starving any other nation.
Therefore an effective combination
against us viii be an lmposibility."
Mr.. Wilson then went on TO say that
steps are being taken TO begin the rails
ing Of hay in the Philippines, primar-
lly for the horses and mules which the
government has there. The depart
ments experts are experimenting with
coffee, and IL is expected that some
thing viii be accomplished toward its
cultivation during the fiscal year in
our insular possessions. Rubber will be
cultivated extensively, the secretary
says. before long in Porto Rico, Hawaii
and the Philippines.
