A Prominent Democrats View.

Judge Lambert Tree of Chicago, a
democratic war horse of that city,
while in Washington last week, talk
ed very plainly to Walter Wellman,
the noted correspondent, concerning
the mistake he thinks the democrats
in congress are making, in attacking
the American army in thePhilippines.
Democratic senators think they are
not attacking the army. But they
are. At least that is what the peo-
pie believe. The people resent it.
Attacks upon an army in the field
have not helped a political party in
this country and never will. The
people believe they have the best, the
most humane and trustworthy army
in the world, and they will stand by
it. Our army comes from among the
people, and carries the popular con-
fidence and affection wherever it goes.
Our soldiers in the Philippines labor
amidst great difficulties. They wade
the mud, force the jungles, face
treachery and savagery, endure the
tropic sun. A great majority of the
American people believe they are do
ing the best they can and that they
should not be assailed at home,
never knew anything more foolish
than the attempt to make political
issue out of the wrong doing of a few
of our soldiers in the Philippines.
Every man of sense knows the United
States could not in honor scuttle out
Of the Philippines if we wanted to, be-
cause the people there are mere chill
dren and incapable Of self government.
Every man who is honest with him.
self knows that we have not the
slightest intention of doing SO. The
Anglo-Saxon has always been a land
getSer, and when he acquires real
estate, with possession and good
title, he keeps it to the end of time,
and for the good people who dwell up
on it. In trying to go against this
racial instinct the democratic party is
whistling down the wind"

Teaching Docs PoIiteness.

A school for dogs has been establish
ed In Paris with the object Of teach
ing not letters but politeness. The
schooIroom is furnished with chairs,
tables and rugs to give the necessary
slocal color" to the surroundings.
The dog pupils are trained to welcome
visitors by jumping up, wagging the
tail and giving a low bark. When
the visitor leaves the dog accompanies
him to the door and bows his farewell
by bending his head to the floor. He
is trained likewise to pick up hand
kerchief, glove or fan that has drop

Take Care Of the Apples.

Growers are urgently advised by the
trade to spray and otherwise protect
and care for their trees, as it will un-
doubtedly be labor we'll repaid; for the
fruit will surely all be needed this
year. The crop of apples in the east
will not be near SO large as was expect
ed, as advices from there say that
much damage was done by frost and
ice about the 9Th to 10th of this
month, something very unusual for so
late in the year, which will curtail
the output largely; besides the amount
of apples, both green and cured,
carried over from the preceding sea-
son was the smallest for years. Our
western growers are altogether too
neglectful and careless about this all
important dnty of the care OF fruit
trees, which is carried on with such
good results in the eastern and north
ern orchards.

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

The democratic voters of Marshall
county have named the ticket which
that party is expected to vote in No.
vember.
This ticket was nominated, not be-
cause it was believed by majority of
democrats that these men were the
best men for the places that could be
found in the party, but because the
party wished to emphatically inform
the leaders that no democrat will be
allowed to remain in office more than
four years.
If Miller and Brooke had refused to
be candidates and had declared them
selves in favor Of one term only, there
would have been a half dozen candi-
dates for auditor and clerk and sever
al candidates for each of the other Of
fees. Neither Singery nor Jones
would have been nominated and the
ticket would have been very different
from that which democrats will now
be asked TO vote.
This paper will not abuse any can
didates. While we think that the
democrats ought to have nominated a
better ticket, we are willing to ac-
knowledge that it might hive been
worse and we give the voters credit
for trying to do the best they could
with the material they had to select
from.
This paper expects to advocate the
success of republican principles rather
than the advancement of individuals.
We believe it is a good time for
hundreds of democrats to join the re-
publican party, the party to which
they have naturally belonged for many
years, but they have not had the cour-
age to leave old associations and vote
for the principles which are best for all
of US.
Principles, not men, should be the
battle cry this year. There are hun
dreds of young men who should this
year align themselves with the party
OF progress, the party that does some
thing in opposition to the party that
does nothing.
Anybody can find fault, and the
democratic party has done nothing
else for more than forty years. When
the people placed the government in
its hands in 1892, it was as incapable
IN managing the affairs of government
as baby would have been in manag-
ing farm or business, and it was
glad to let 60 of the reins and 60 back
to fault finding again.
All democrats know that this is
true and most democrats know that
the present policy of abusing Ameri-
can soldiers and the president and his
advisers and lauding the enemies of
the government is wrong, therefore
we invite all good democrats to join
the republican party and vote the re-
publican ticket.

The London Statist thinks, after a
careful review of the business outlook
in this country, that unless some great
mistakes are made it will probably
continue to prosper for an indefiuite
period. "Never," it says, ''has the
country accumulated SO much wealth,
never have its industries and its rail-
ways been as well administered, and
never have It's farmers been as free
from debt" 1t seems strange, no
doubt, to people Of other countries
that there should be a party in this
country in opposition to the policy
which has given us this prosperity. =.

News comes from Washington that
the ship subsidy bill will not be called
up again in this congress. 1t should
be called up and be defeated or passed.
The bill could be so amended as to
make it acceptable to the mass of
voters, but If it is neither defeated
nor passed the democratic party will
hold it up as bugabOo which republi-
cans are afraid of and get more re-
publicans votes that they could if the
bill was passed in it's present shape.

that its determination came too late,
as a competition followed which
brought the trust to grief with its
excessive capitalization. 1t is merely
the old story which it would seem
intelligent men would learn sooner or
later, namely, that an advance Of
prices on the assumption of monop-
oily is certain to incite disastrous COM
petition. The only policy by which
large combinations called trusts can
hope to succeed is BY proving an abil-
ity to produce more cheaply than the
small individual concerns and sharing
with the pnblic the benefit of this
ability. This policy is pursued by
thu billion-dollar steel trust, which
prevented an advance in prices when
they could have sustained for a time.
