TUESDAY. FEBRUARY IS, 1902.

Senator Hoar, in a tilt with Sena- tor Platt of Connecticut, over the Philippine policy of the administra- tion. said of some of Governor Tart s statements: "I have learned to trust men, even the greatest and the best men, not by what they say, but what they do, and when Governor Taft says that the Filipino want indepen- dence, and says at the same time no- body shall express that desire above his breath, distrust his opinion and look for evidence of the fact. When he says that people are enjoying American freedom, when he promul- gates law which at the same time makes it q penitentiary offense to read the Declaration of Independence on the Fourth of July, I confess I am very little impressed by his judgment and very profoundly impressed by his edict."

The senator does not con sider that the United States owes anything to Cuba, nevertheless ne IS willing to vote for any measure which will afford relief ito I neigh bor," provided it will work no hard ship to a few classes of American pro- ducers. 1t cannot be gainsaid that there is considerable anxiety over the Cuban industrial situation and many members of both houses of congress regard the situation as critical. Of course. in the event of anything in the nature of riots or an instruction against the government which has ac- cepted the Platt amendment, the Unit ed States would be compelled to im- mediately increase it's military forces in the island and there might be pre- cipitated q situation similar to that in the Philippines.

FINE VENETIAN LACES.
A Great Advance Has Been Made on the- Methods of Primitive
 Needle Workers.

The stamp of perfected elegance which all Venice lace bears is the re- suit of it's having been evolved in period and environment of luxury and constantly widening art development, says the Chautauquan. Primitive needlewomen display no art ingenuity in getting beyond the simpler twisted effects in thread work. The product of native Indians, of Syrians, of South Americans, and even of the Mexicans, is all flat. Twisted threads forming meshes similar 10 those seen in reil- ings and with ''star" ground, are the sole resource of these workers, to whom even the open buttonhole stitch as an embe ellishment is unknown.
 Though often most complex in de- sign, the early laces of Italy and Spain, were equally flat until the workers began to initiate with the needle the raised and knotted effects of the hard reticella or bone laces of Greece. Once the method of applying the buttonhole stitch became known among them, however, the experimenters among the more enlightened workers of those countries, and later of France and England, were untiring in testing the possibilities. Soon this stitch became the basis of all Venetian laces. It was used for the making of every portion of the pattern, including the plain and ornamental brides that connected the closely placed, but irregular, motifs; for the cordonnets or raised borders and edges, and even for the filling-in stitches
Waterbury Democrat., 1902-02-18

To q close observer, the trend of the tangling alliances with foreign powers and the attendant naval and military development is necessarily a source of anxiety. The sentiments expressed in the senate lobbies when the news of the Anglo-Japanese alliance was made known were more than straWs in their indication of the direction in which the country is drifting. The military strength of the country, al- ready weakened by the distant posses sions which must be protected in time of war, must now be augmented and the country placed on the highway toward a standing army and a navy that can compete with the European nations in rivalry into which we have entered in the new struggle for colonial possessions and aggrandize- ment. As is well known, the efforts of our delegates to the PanAmerican congress were hampered by the belief of South American countries that this government regarded them with a covetous eye. The fear was ridiculed by the press, but on Friday member of the senate committee on inter oceanic canals stated that permanent ownership of the land through which the Panama canal might be built was unimportant, as long before the 300 year lease would have expired this country would town all that terri tory ;

Representative Bell of Colorado has bill before the house ways and means committee that the republican bosses could not stop if there was a chance for record vote on it. It provides that national banks that have deposits of government funds exceed ing $5,O00 q month shall pay interest not exceeding one-foufth of one per cent and not less than one-tenth of one per cent month on the same, the deposits to be made with those banks which offer the highest interest. MT Bell has been looking over the books of the treasury. He finds that a few favored national banks now hold government deposits amounting to $115,000000 upon which no interest whatever is paid. Speaking of his bill, MT Bell said Under my bill the secretary of the treasury in desig- mating Repositories for public monies shall cause the money to be deposited III tIlC ucdIC5L ou1t OGpOSlL WutIC lI4c collections are made to avoid, so far as possible, a plethora of money at one or more places. know the banks that have government money on deposit will howl against the pro- position to require them to pay inter- est, but if the government would of fer to distribute it's deposits among the national banks offering the largest premium there would be no lack of bidders. do not know what action the ways and means committee will take in reference to my bill. but I feel confident that the subject will come up in the house for debate before a great while.n
