 industrial commonwealth. We saall soon lead in the production of pig iron. Our coal ares exceeds that of any other state. With Nater communication from the mineral section to the gulf Alabama coal III drive every competitor II om the sout -crn field. We have in great abund- ant . coal iron ore. wood and cotton, the foSr raw materials which lie at the base st nearly every branch of industry Mod .rn business conditions demand that the raw material should be converted into the finished product wtere the raw material is found. The industrial and trnnsporta- ton companies of our state are getting mere numerous and more powerful each year. The people will find 1t necessary to demand legislation tending to keep these cor poraticns within their legitimate bounds and to place upon them just share of the public burdens. Already there Is a popular demand for a railroad commission elected by the people and paid by the people One large railroad has met this demand by defiantly throw ing down the gage of battle. Now, why will not all these things result here, as they have result ed else where In concert ed political action on the part of the cor porate interests of the state? Some acute political leader will sooner or later be singled out oy ihe aggregated wealth of the state as its agent He will be fur nished the necessary funds to set up and maintain powerful political machine He will dictate state nominations and control legislative niajorities. No law will be allowed to psss affecting adversely his clients interests.
 The press will now play a much more important role in politics. While few men had the DOW CT to rame the delegates to conventions, the politician had little need of these organs of public opinion With the adoption of the primary sys- tern the press of the state has become a great factor. The press or Aiapama sus tains deservsdly a high reputation for trutn- courage and purity. Let us hope that it will stand as bulwark between the people and the oangers of bossism which now threater- them.

HOW KINGS ILLNESS IMPRESS IBID ENGLAND

ID LNG IIIA1Nl
 Everything seems to indicate that the kings recovery will permit the cor onation to be held early ip the autumn, and perhaps before the end of August. Seeing the circumstances, it is hoped that the coronation ceremony will be Exceeded by solemn service in rSts Paurs cathedral, the king and queen attending for personal and national thanksgiving subsequent to the cor onation, the ceremony in Westminster Abbey being on q far quieter. and smaller scale than the intended gorg- eous pageant of June 26. The king unqueStionably gains immensely in personal popularity by his illness just as did queen Victoria by the national sympathy in her widowhood.
 The bishop of London only express ed the national feeling when, on com ing straight, as he expressly said, from the queens side at Buckingham palace on Monday, he told the congre- gation that God had preached strik- ing sermon to the British Empire" !" He said that he feared that i'll the ex- cifement of a great show, the inner meaning of the coronation as a great national sacrament stood in danger of being forgotten. The incident might also be a rebuke for the love of com fort growing over the nation, among the working classes and the upper classes alike. History was strewn with the wrecks of empires which had neglected the lessons of history, and deserted the will of God. He prayed that the coronation when it did take nIann leo snsnnthiro ars+nrnd into in q. more subdued and humble spirit, be in far greater degree national sac rament. Remembering the close off, cial and personal relationship of the bishop of London With the king, and especially with the queen, these words seem to be almost an echo from Buck itsoi1 na1ona

 Do you think so? The Post would have pretty difficult time in raising the amount The Waterbury end of the fee is big enough to be worth fighting for.

The sensational testimony of Ad- miral Dewey before. the senate inyes- tigating committee is still the talk of the hour. Commenting on it a contrib utor to one of the July magazines writes as follows: Admiral Dewey said that he never gave the Filipino republic the slightest recognition; he had no authority to do so and did not consider it an organized government. He denied emphatically that he had ever saluted Aguinaldo's flag; he did not even address Aguinaldo as sgen- eral' He said the Spaniards feared the Filipinos would enter Manila, and therefore surrendered to him in ad- l vance. There was no need for the loss of man in the capture of the city No gun would have been fired except for the desire of the governor, who said his honor demanded that few shots be fired. 50 had to kill few men, Admiral Dewey added. Practically, the admiral claimed, Manila was sur rendered tor offered for surrender to him the day of the naval enga cement.

According to a decision of the New York court of appeals persons like ness may be used for advertising pur- poses with impunity. The case was suit against a flour manufacturing company to compel them to cease us- ing picture of Miss Abigail Rober- son, . beautiful IS year old girl, as an advertisement. The court ruled that this could not be stopped. If this is law it is pretty bad example and new laws are needed. Very few beauti- ful girls, however. would object to the notoriety. Haven
 Yes, or. very few men, either, for that matter. The presidents picture is published in hundreds of papers throughout the country looking a bottle in the eye. True, it is only summer drink bottle, but it goes to show that even the presidents picture can be printed when and where almost any one or everyone pleases.

THE AMERICAN GIRL.
What a Frenchman Thinks About
 Them

What Frenchman Thinks About
 Them.
 Maude Come the Irish Jeanne q Arc, we'll known ill Bridgeport, where she visited three years ago in search of recruits for the Boer service in South Africa, is now i'll Paris. Tn touching upon her visit to this coun- try she pays a high compliment to the American girl. She says:
 Hughes Leroux, who has just re- turned from a lecture tour in the Uni ted States, falls into the usual French rhapsody about the American girls. Frenchmen are so artistic that they appreciate better than others the rare attractions of the American woman. The extraordinary intelligence of the American girl enhances her beauty. She is as beautiful when travelling as when at home. whereas the women of other nationa1ities look distraught when journeying, which is particular ly true of Parisian women.
 "Then, too, American girls remain longer at school than Parisians. The latter do not begin serious study until they are married. then they study their husbands and books. An Eng fish woman of forty apologies for liv- ing, an American woman of forty has only reached the maturity of her at tractiveness.
 American women possess the pe- culiar charm of pleasing women as well as men, while as hostesses they are perfect I have never been better entertained than by American women When I visited the United States, America was the friend of Cuba pray she will free Ireland also.
