Among returned officers who know
the condition in the island of Samar
well, especially the dangerous char
acter of the insurgents there, it is be-
lieved that knowledge of the assas-
sination of President Mckinley had
something to do with the attack on
our troops near Balangiga. Fuller
reports may show this view not to
be tenable. but it can be said at least
that similar attacks, and in fact a
general encouragement of the whole
insurgent movement, have been due
to knowledge of our political hap
penings sent to the Philippines. 1t
is not unlikely that President McKin-
ley's death, which the insurgents in
Samar must have heard about, may
have given new hope of success to
their insurgent and excited minds.

Dear Sir: You know chemistry
Lead and zinc is a better paint than
lead alone or zinc alone. Lead chalks
off; zinc peels off. Lead and zinc stay

and zinc is the paint. ltisground fine
and thoroughly mixed. A painter
ought never to mix lead and zinc: it
wants grinding; mixing isn'tenough.
A streak of lead and streak OF zinc
is not lead and zinc.
The object in grinding Devoe is to
grind the lead into the zinc and the
zinc into the lead, which a painter
can't do, with a stick in tub.
And yet lead and oil will wearlong-
er with 20 or 80 per cent of zinc mix.

But Devoe has lead ground in with
zinc. The lead is fine enough; so is
the zinc. The grinding is to grind
the two into one, and grinding costs

over the ability of two bright YER

commissioner to the st. Louis ex-
position, and Lawyer Smith OF Wells

famous" after his eloquent speech at
the Fish and Game banquet. The at

traffic, and its attendant evils. That
the attitude of the state towards
this traffic affects favorably or ad
versely every interest of the people;
taxation, production, pauperism,
crime, insanity, public peace, pro-
lection of persons and property, the
interest Of labor and capital; the
