THE APPROACHING CANDIDATE

The time is at hand when the pub lie spirited citizen allows himself to be persuaded, invariably against his will, to enter the race for office. Up to the present writing. the Revie" has been unable to find candidate who has entered the race of his own free will and accord, and for the emol- ument that attaches thereto. lnvaria- bly, force has been used, and it IS generally with much reluctance that the candidate has finally been pre- vailed upon.
 After. the candidate has finally given his consent, the next move is to pub lie announce his intention through the columns of the local paper and the editor listens long and attentively to the same story from each one.
 With his announcement published, the candidate sallies forth in his store clothes and can be picked out of the crowd on first sight. He is all aiten- tion while Joe" tells the same old story he heard last year. and he may be found at church fairs and charit- able undertakings with unheard-oi regularity. He attends church or Sunday and during the week sets 'em up" to the boys. He develops a sud den liking for babies and small chil- dren, and is not averse to lending his neighbor a hand in fixing his fence or clearing oil the back lot. All around he is a good fellow. and IS pleasant to meet. He wears a number ten smile and is adverse to strenuous arguments that might endaL- ger his chances. He sallies forth early in the morning and returns late at night. He carries a tabulated state ment of the vote cast at the last cleo tion in his inside pocket. He is into the fight against his wishes. but So long as the party wants him, he in- tends to win. He is not making an active campaign, does not think II necessary. so many of his friends have come to him with their assur ance of support The day of the con
 yention arrives and the delegate from the outlying precincts come tc town. He has a nice way of being in troduced to strangers and always diC like to meet men from the country The convention meets and he enter the hall all smiles. full of expectation;
 and whiskey toddies.
 The vote is cast and he loses.
 The next sixty days is spent in es 1 plaining how the play came up.

HANNA IS ALARMED

Senator Hanna of Ohio was the pri.. cipal speaker at the Chatauqua society which met at Urbsna, Ohio. on Wed nesday of this week. The senate. from Ohio is a close observer of trade conditions and is preside of cne civic federation, which has been gOtent factor in the settlement of l. DOT disputes of the past few years.
 Senator Hanna struck the keyno of alarm in the following words
 The prolonged strike in the anthra cite country has brought about a cor dition that is alarming-not only to the peace of society, but to the mater ial interests of our people,
 These words, from Senator Hanna who knows whereof he speaks, are de serving of serious consideration. With each succeeding week the strike in the anthracite regions grows more desperate. President Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers, is determined to make this effort supreme, and so far has the sympathy and best wishes of the great mass of American people
 The condition of the coal miners in Pennsylvania is deplorable Locat- ed at the door where the immigration from Europe enters, the coal miner has been driven to compete with the scum of foreign countries or lose his work. At the best. there is barely a sustenance, and so long as the law is not violated, they are entitled to, and will receive. the sympathy of the American people, in their efforts to better a deplorable condition

OUR SUPPLY OF BACHELORS

The statistical department of any government is a wonderful institution
 That of Uncle Sam is no less than that The census bureau in Wash ington has recently issued some fig ures touching the visible supply of bachelors and spinsters in the United States which cannot fail to be of ab- sorbing interest to those who are seeking ,ife-partners. These figures show at . glance just what part of the country either bachelors or spin sters abound in the greatest number
 In the aggregate there are e,726. 77o bachelors in the United States over 20 yean of age, and 4,1s5,44e maidens who have passed the same age. This must be . little discour
Bisbee daily review., 1902-08-08

aging to the maidens who are more than 2,500,000 in the minority. Still. by the kindly aid of Cupid. they may be provided for. Be it known that some of the unattached males wlll wed widows, while not a few of then. will find partners among girls under the 20-year limit.
 It is interesting to know that there Is not state in the union where there are as many unmarried women as bachelors. Even in Massachusetts where spinsterhood is supposed to flourish and do well, there are 2s2.- 932 single males as against 277.7ll spinsters.
 The natural camping ground of the lone maiden in search of a husband is. of course. in the bounding west. the states and territories offering the greatest advantages being Idaho. Mon- tana, Washington, Wyoming. Nevada. California and Arizona.
 While on this subject it is worth while to mention another pleasing feature of the statistics given out by the census bureau. These figures are to the effect that a baby is born n the United States every twelve sec onds. Every twenty three seconds a death occurs, and every twenty-four seconds some fond couple are made man and wife.
 The fact that there are so many more bachelors than maidens in the United States is noteworthy for the reason that the very reverse is the case in European countries.
 It is to be hoped that the average American young man is not showing a tendency to fight shy of matrimon- ial responsibilities. And yet his Un- cle Sam must be of the opinion that he is fighting shy of these important and necessary responsibilities or oth- erwise he would not go to the trou- ble and expense of preparing statis- tics to show unmarried females just where he is secreting himself. Let him come forth and face the music.

HANNA IN INDIANA

St. Louis Republic: Now that 1t seems to be settled that Senator Hanna will talk for a week" in h. diana during the approaching cam paign. the oratorical deluge with which the country has been threat ened by Republican managers is evi' dently so certain that many wary per sons will take to the woods.
 Nevertheless. it must be confesse that the situation is sufficiently seri- ous, from the republican viewpoint to justify Mir Hanna in his six-days- so-as-ypu please windjamming stunt in Indiana
 Thanks to a more fully enlightened -,:..... sentiment, the monopoly cor porations whose interests Mark Hanna represents in public life are in consid- erable danger, in so far as perma' nent enjoyment of their monopolies is concerned If ever there was need of the crafty Hanna tongue to talk it's cunningest in behalf of the trusts that need exists right now.
 The chances are, however, that it is too late for even so shrewd a cam paigner as Senator Hanna to turn the tide of the political flood now setting against the Republican party. Recent events have taught the people so con vincingly that the tariff is but an op pressive tax which they must pay, ana that the trusts, created by the tarif are robbing them to the bone undci ! the protection of the tariff, that eve' six days of uninterrupted gab iron the great apostle of the trusts will b. without avail to save the trusts.
 Senator Hanna will be wasting hi breath on the stump. The time 10 talk has passed. The American peo pie are prepared for action.

Harry Tracy, one of the most notor- ious outlaws in the history Of this country. and who has terrorized the state of Washington for the past sixty days. has met the inevitable fate that overtakes the desperado. Tracy's death was perhaps more tragic than the ordinary. but 1t was the same in the end. The capture and death of Tracy is cause for congratulation on the part of all friends of good society. If this red-handed murderer had made good his escape, after his sensational race across the state, others of his ilk would have been keen to equal his record Tracy received his just deserts. The wages of sin is death.

That was a just and proper resolu- ton introduced at the city council meeting on Tuesday night by Council man Bowen, providing for the free use of the scavenger wagon. It would seem from the amount of the license tax imposed on business men, that the city could afford to maintain the scav- enger service free of charge.

STATE AUDITOR.

Senator Lewis, of Allegany, or Monday
night introduced a bill amending the so
called State Auditor law. AT present the
expert accountant employed by the Gov
ernor, q: 4 cost of 81 COO Il year, is empow
cred th examine into the accounts of all
officials whose excess Of fees are by law
required to be paid into the State Treas
ury Senator Lewis bill proposes to
establish Il State Auditor at an annual
salary of 81 800, with the same power now
exercised by the present accountant. In
addition to this he is to be charged with
the duty of prescribing a proper system
of bookkeeping for all County Commits
sioners and other court officers. All such
officials are to report annually to the
Auditor their receipts and disburs ements,
and he is to keep proper records of them
all, so that it may be known at any time
what it is costing to govern the State.
The auditor will also be required, upon
demand CT the bondsmen Of any public
official, to examine into the accounts of
such official. Mr.. Lewis esteems this bill
as one of the most important of the ses-
sion. Such law, he says, saves the State
of Wyoming $15000O year, aud if Mary
land had had it heretofore it would have
saved the people of Allegany county from
| large floating debts and the State from
| great losses.

THE MARYLAND AGRlCUL-
TURAL COLLEGE.

The Maryland Agricultural Collie &c
is State Institution that deserves
recognition at the hands of the General
Assembly. 1t is undoubtedly in a
more prosperous condition now than
it has ever been. Its equipment is
excellent; its officials are acknowleds ed
to be unusually capable and efficient
and the attendance of students is such
that ample accommodation cannot be
provided.
The State has already expended
large sums of money upon the institu-
ton. But this is no reason why it
should not continue its help. In fact
because through the generous aid OF the
State, the College Las reached so high
degree of usefulness, there is greater
reason why this help should be con.
tinued-in an economical and prudent
manner. The bill making an appro
priation for the College, now pending
in the Legislature, has been amended
at the suggestion of the Attorney Gen.
eral, in such a manner as to secure the
States interests, and, unless over.
whelmed by the press Of business dur.
ing the closing days Of the session, it
NAV be enacted into a law.

DEATH CHARLES
BROADWAY ROUSS,

The story of the life of Charles Broad
day, (Monday), reads almost like ro-
nance, says the Balti..,ore San. Born in
Maryland, Mr. Rouss spent his boyhood
and early manhood in Virginia. where he
established himself in and became sue
cessful merchant. At the beginning of
the Civil War he enlisted in the Confed-
crate Army and fought for the Lost
Cause until the end of the conflict Then,
almost penniless, he went to New York
to begin life anew. His pluck and capac-
ity enabled him to achie5e success be.
yond his most sanguine expectations. He
built up business which brought him
fortune and reputation. The man who
landed in New York with only few
dollars in his pocket became one of the
merchant princes of the metropolis.
Mr.. Rouss never forgot the State of his
adoption, in which he had won his earlier
successes as merchant, and his heart
was ever true to the cause for which he
.-do SlNCu SolAC VI IuC OCSG yCdIS VI AiS
life. Many old Confederate soldiers
whose lines after the war were not cast
in pleasant places have been the reclpi-
cnts of his generous bounty. He gave
100000 to the fund for building a memo
rial hall in honor of the gallant and devo-
ted men who died for the Confederacy
To the University of Virginia he gave
$50, 900 to establish physical laboratory.
The city of Winchester, where he first
engaged in business, owes much to his
munificence. He established a competi-
tive art scholarship in Paris for the bene-
fit of Southern students. These are some
has knowledge. Those who were intimate
with Mr.. Rouss say his life abounded in
kindly deeds and that his generosity was
unbounded.
The last years of Mr.. Rouss' life were
clouded by affection, but he bore it man
fully. Although he was blind, he attend
ed to many details of his business. The
success which he achieved should he an
inspiration to young men who have to
make their way in the world under APP
parently adverse conditions. Grit, intelli-
gence, integrity and persistence are the
foundations upon which success is based.
The man who possesses these qualities
ought never to despair. The world must
have looked very blue to Charles Broad
way Rouss when he went to New York
nearly 81 years ago to begin life over
again in strange land, among strangers.
But he was determined to succeed, and
honesty, energy and grim resolution
brought him the fortune he was bent upon
acquiring Mr.. Rouss was type of the
young men of the South who fought the
battles OF the Confederacy and then,
when defeat came, set to work to re-
trieve their fortunes.

ANOTHER SLAP AT SCHLEH.

1t is apparently the purpose Of the sub
committee of the House Committee on
Naval Affairs, to which the Schley reso
lutions were referred, to take its turn at
giving slap to the Admiral.
Representative James E. Watson, of In
diana, chairman of that sub committee,
said Monday that the committee intends
to get to work at once on the different
bills and resolutions. This sub committee
he says, will first consider the testimony
submitted to the Schley Court of Inquiry.
After that it will take up the decision of
the President. 1t will then peruse the de-
cision of the Court of Claims bearing on
the matter of prize money claimed by the
American fleet for its work off Santiago,
and will then study what President Nc
Kinley said of the case when he recon-
mended the promotions of naval officers
engaged in the battle.
In the meantime, Mr.. Watson says, the
subcommittee is willing to grant hearings
to any person interested in the case. 1t
has been suggested that perhaps Mr.. Ray
ner, of counsel for Admiral Schley, might
desire to GO before the committee. Mr..
Watson said that the committee would be
glad to hear Mr.. Rayner or anyone else
interested in the case.
He added: ''My own view of this whole
case is that Congress should take no ac-
ton. think it has been settled to the
satisfaction of the people. do not speak
for the committee, but for myself alone.
In my judgment nothing is to be gained
by further proceedings"
When Mr. Watson's remark was re-
ported about the House there was great
deal of comment. Representative Sydney
E. Mudd thought the idea of hearings a
preposterous one "Watson's observa-
tion,' said he, recalls the case of dis
tinguished judge who was hearing Grim
inal case. The judge had heard all the
witnesses and had given notice to counsel
to begin arguments. After the argu-
ments,' remarked his Honor, L will give
the case due consideration and at the end
of 10 days will find in favor of the de-
PENDANT "
