From the Washington Post
Elk Speaker Reeds brief comment Of
the case of the two South Carolina sena-
tors was circulated In the republican
cloak room yesterday. Mr.. Reed was at
the capitol on law business, and someone
asked him whether McLaurin and Till
man ought to be expelled.
"ExPelledgv drawled the eK-speaker.
NO. A greater punishment than expul-
sion has already been imposed. Two
United States senators have been con-
demDed TO silence.
Then, think Of the catastrophe re-
sumed Mr.. Reed, as his eye twinkled and
his face took on that expression Of list
Iessness, which adds TO the force Of his
humor. SHOULD either Of these senators
die while uuder contempt. his colleague
would be unable to call attention 20 his
eminent services.

If the low paid British labor were as
efficient as Americans, the United
States would find It useless to compete
for the worlds trade The fact that
this country is building up such an en-
ormoUs export business in the face Of
British competition shows that high
priced American labor Is really cheap

Of the United States would be impossi-
bic if the American workman were not
so efficient as to make his labor the
cheapest in the world

Hanna on the Ship subsidy.


From the Kansas City Star.
In his speech on the ship subsidy bill
Senator Hanna revived the old fallacy
that highly paid labor is dear. Wages
in this country, he said, averaged so
per cent higher than IN Europe. Amer
lean built ships cost from % to 80 per
cent more than those constructed in
England as the consequence Of the
greater cost Of labor. Costly labor
has long been the stock protectionist
argument
The United States steel corporation
pays Mr.. Schwab a higher salary than
any independent steel company pays
its president But it does not plead
this as an excuse for charging more for
its steel than its competitors. Mr..
Schwab is high-priced man, but he is
supposed to be worth his salary to the
trust When the American company
installed the great yiaduct in Burmah,
two years ago, it thought it worth while
to pay the expenses Of so American
machinists to Burmah, although it
could have employed skilled native
machinists on the ground. The man
ager Of the work reported that, while
the natives had the necessary skill,
they did not show the intelligence and
initiative Of the Americans, OF the alb

The British and the Mule.

From the Kansas City World.
The mules were stampeded,' wrote
Kitchener three times recently in telling
Of reversss his troops had suffered. Is it
possible that the very feature of assist
ancs from the United States which BOer
delegates are trying to have stopped is
the best ally the Beers have? It seems
that the Missouri mule is doing more for
she Beers than are the signers Of BOer
petitions Would it not be good idea for
pro Beers to chip in and send mules to
Africa. so that the British may attach
them to their columns and the Beers
may stampede them?
The Goodland republic. [volume] (Goodland, Kan.) 1891-1907, 1902-03-14

The bravery Of the Beers and their
tenacity Of purpose to fight the British
to the bitter end, against overwhelming
odds, challenges the admiration Of the
world. LeOnidas and his Spartans
were not more brave. American mules
help toward British defeat and STAN
pede in favor of the burghers. Even
American mules love liberty. About a
year ago Gen. Kitchner declared the
war in South Africa ended But he
still regrets to state" in reporting the

the capture Of Gen. Methuen, the tax
ing Of guns and baggage train. Gen.
Kitchnen should get his field report

should Repeal Vicious Tax

From the Buffalo Courier.
In the hands Of the house ways and
means committee is a bill IN the interest
of practically every newspaper in this
country, for it provides for placing wood
pulp on the free list and and reducing
the duty on imported paper. Probably
it will be opposed vigorously, perhaps
defeated, by the interests which fear any
breach whatever IN the tariff wall. The
New York Evening Posts suggestion IS
worthy Of consideration, that the news
papers tell their congressman that they
will oppose the nomination and re cleo
ton Of every one who votes against this
measure.
The taxing of wood pulp is peculiarly
burdensOme. The revenue derived is in
significant, and the destruction of the
American spruce forests, already well
under way, is FASTENED by the prOhibi-
ton Of access to the great stores of this
wood IN other countries, particularly
Canada and Norway. The main effect
has been to hamper newspaper publica-
ton. The only benefit has been to the
trust which has thrived under protection
directed against the power which could
most effectively retaiite if it chose to
exert itself To many newspapers an
advance of any percentage in the price of
paper is a serious handicap, for they can
not increase their selling price proper
tiOnately.
Wood pulp material is becoming scarce
in this country, and the supply is too
easily available to mOnOpOlistic control.
IL the face of further advances, which
would compel the increase of the price
of all newspapers to their readers, they
are justified In making common cause
against an offensive tax upon the spread
of knowledge.

LOST ROYAL CLOAK.
How it Fell Into the Hands of Sec
ond- Hand Clothes Dealer.

How it Fell Into the Hands of a Sec
ond- Hand Clothes Dealer.
An amusing story of how a royal cloak
once fell into the hands of an obscure
secondhand wardrobe dealer at Ports
mouth is just now going the rounds of
naval circles of this port AS is well
known, there are periodical sales of "con-
demned stores" at the various dockyards,
and on the occasion in question among
tie "lots" brought under the hammer
were some of the cast-off furniture and
appurtenances of the late Queens yacht
Victoria and Albert.
A local dealer purchased some of the
smaller lots, and upon unpacking them
on his arrival home he discovered that
among them was Il neatly tiedup bundle
containing a magnificent cloak of purple
velvet, lined with silk of rich crimson
hue. While he was cndeavoring to de-
eide what he should do with the precious
raiment a sailor belonging TO the ship
called i'll. and upon being shown the cloak
he identified il rs one he had seen the
late Queen Victoria frequently wearing
while on the yacht.
Jack went pack 10 the vessel full of
the story, which quickly spread from
lower deck to gun room, and from gun
room to ward room. Here the officer
responsible for the cloak's disappearance
heard of it, and visions of breakers ahead
We're followed by determination TO get
it back at any cost. But the task was
not so easy. TO his chagrin the officer
found that since its disposal the value
of the cloak had risen by leaps and
bounds, and his offer of a fve-pound note
for the garment was received with scorn.
After great deal of arguing and beat
ing down" the dealer was dazzled by the
twelve bright sovereigns in the open palm
of the officer, and he consented to accept
that sum for the cloak. Thus it was
restored TO it's rightful place. and, al
though minus his twelve sovereigns, the
officer had the satisfaction of seeing the
cloak again donned by her late majesty
shortly after, she little suspecting since
she had last worn the garment it had
been temporarily located in second
hand shop near Common Hard.-London

M OST people think that catarrh is a
1Nl disease confined to the head and
nose. Nothing Is farther from the
truth. 1t may be that the nose and throat
is the oftenest affected by catarrh, but
If this is SO it is so only because these
parts are more exposed to the vicssitudes
of the climate than the other parts of
the body.
Every organ, every duct, every cavity
of the human body is liable to catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend on ca
tarrh. This is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many cases Of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the

Pulcue is made from the juice Of the
agave. or American aloe plant which
is also known as the maguey. The
agaves grow to height Of about twelve
feet and are planted the some distance
apart in big plantations by those who
make business OF preparing the drink
for market. The agave plant, by the
way, is simply a large edition of the
prickly pear or ornamental cactus, famil-
lar to us as the century plant

agave-or pulque-is obtained only from
the flower stalk of the plant. The
agave blossoms only once in ten or
twelve years, 50 that il can be seen that
large grove Of the plants is necessary
to obtain anything like regular supply.
When the Mexican attendant finds a
plant ready to send up the long straight
shoos which would bear the flowers Of
the agave, he cuts away with his
matchete the spiny leaves of the plant
until he is able TO comfortably reach
the center of the plant. Then he care
fully cuts out the but and upper leaves
OF the plant and hollOws out the cavity
so made until he has formed a hole like
a deep basin in the center Of the plant.
INTO this cup the agaye pours all the
ishment Of the flower shoot. the flowers
and the seeds. So abundant is this
flow Of sap that it is supplied at the
rate of from two to five gallons 81 day
for several months. The sap abounds
in sugar and when first drawn is very
pleasant to the taste.

make pulque in this way is 10 be made
