The American says: "Senator Car
mack insists that the Philippine ques-
tion be made leading campaign is
sue. Not at all. Senator Carmack
says that the Philippine question is a
leading campaign issue. And every
body knows that it is. The Ameri-
can continues: ''Senator Carmack has
many friends and supporters who regret
to see that he is displaying more inten-
slty of feeling ON this passing question
than clearness of vision. That is
not true either. Mr.. Carmack' s
friends and supporters are not only
satisfied, but highly gratitied at the
record he is making in the Senate.
And the American being neither a
friend nor a supporter of Senator Car
mack, has no right to speak for them.
Truth is, the American is political
bushwhacker. 1t pretends to be a
Democratic paper, when it is not, and
it essays to lecture prominent Demo-
Gratis the latchet of whose shoes it is
not worthy to loose.

The Courier Journal says that pub
lie opinion is the real ruler in
America. The Courie Journal said
that, perhaps without thinking. The
trusts rule this country, though public
opinion is strongly against them.
This is plutocratic government. No
intelligent person seriously DOUBTS or
denies that. 1t is government con-
trolled by the rich and for the rich.
The people know that, and talk it, and
public opinion is bitterly against it.
But it goes on just the same. Public
opinion was opposed to the election of
Mr.. Mckinley both times. But men
by the thousand who privately talked
for Bryan and honestly hoped for his
election, for a money consideration
joined Mckinley clubs and wore Nc
Kinley badges and marched in McKin-
ley demonstrations and voted for Nc
Kinley. The administration is Re-
publican, but the heart OF the people is
Democratic. This is a plutocratic,
minority government we are living
under.

Last year there were l.s46 marriages
between whites and negroes in New
York State. 800 white men married
negro women and 926 white women
married negro men. Good looking
mulatto negroes who want to throw
themselves away on low down
white folks, ought to go to New York
state to live. When it comes to a
question of work, however, it is quite
different. Union labor controls
everything up there, and no negroes
are admitted in the Unions.

It is related of Senator Hoar, that he
once undertook to take the place OF a
Young friend and teach her Sunday
school class. During the course OF the
lesson the Senator explained with great
detail the story of the Pilgrim lano-
ing on Plymouth Rock, and then
asked. "Who can draw me a picture
of Plymouth Rock?' Hen or rooster
inquired little by. to the Senator s
infinite disgust.

President Roosevelt admonished
Gen. Jacob HI. Smith and then
retired him from the active list in
accordance with the finding and
sentence Of the court-martial. Gen.
Smith was convicted on the now IA
nous orders to "kill and burn issued
to Maj. Waller. The President
tone was soft as that of a dove, and
the Generals salary goes on just the
same. An officer who is retired "for
cause, D." before his time, ought to for
felt his salary.

The Chicago papers are making

forced economy staring one in the

The Bailey Beveridge- Penield incl

to fight. Beveridge talked too muc h

Then Penfield published" Bailey.
Now If Bailey were to smack Penfield,

a chance) some new tongue warrior
would lambast the Texan anew. For
there are lots and scores of creatures
who would be willing to take thresh-

tleman and figure in a sensation. In
the DAYS of the code duello, gentlemen
only fought with those OF their rank
1t ought to be so now; and in a large
measure it is.

STREET CARS COLLIDE.
One Hundred and Fifty People in .

Many Injured.

Chicago, July IA Wentworth av-
enue car, carrying 100 passengers,
and Thirty-first street car, with so
passengers, collided at their inter-

smaller car, which was knocked from
the track, was cut or bruised, but the
most serious injury was broken ell
bow sustained by a woman passen-
ger. That several passengers were
not killed is considered remarkable.

Deceitful Appearances.

Once again the fact that appearances
are ofttimes deceitful has been proved
true. The interest of a number Of
those in the audience at a local theatre
one evening was evenly divided be-
tween the action on the stage and the
conduct of a couple seated in the sec
Ond row of orchestra chairs. During
the intermissions between acts, as well
as a goodly portion Of the time, while
the curtain was up, the two folks re-
ferred to gave evidence Of being more
concerned about themselves than in
the play. Each gazed lovingly into the
eyes Of the other as a whispered con.
versation was carried on TO the extent
that the people sitting nearby felt
warranted in making mental comparl-
sons with turtle doves
All the romance was ruthlessly
dashed from the situation, however,
when those In the row of seats directly
In the rear Of the couple CHANGED to
overhear portion Of what was under
discussion. The man was describing

ter-of-fact manner and with much ear.

A Very Clever Swindle.

For some years a little wagon has
come into Paris daily from one of the
suburbs and in accordance with the
regulations it has been examined at
regular intervals by custom house of
ficers.
Their task, however was easy, for
they never found in it anything but
fruit and vegetables, which are free Of
duty, and so they naturally regarded
the driver as an honest countryman,
who was taking to market the produce
from his little farm.
The other day through a mere acci'
dent they found out their mistake. A
brewers wagon came in collision with
the little cart, and, as the heavy shaft
shattered one of the sides, stream Of
rich oil gushed out ON the sidewalk. AS
there is a heavy duty on oil the custom
house officers arrested the innocent
looking cOuntryman and discovered, to
their amazement, that there was a
false bottom in the cart, and that con-
cealed from view was tank capable
of holding several quarts of oil.
Subsequent investigation showed that
oil had been brought for a long time
in this surreptitious manner TO dealer
in Paris, and the authorities are now
carefully examining every little wagon
that enters the city, in order to find out
whether it also has a double bottom or
not.

The last census Of India tells o
tragic tale Of the ravages Of famine in
some OF the native States. The total
population of British India in 1901 was
20. .3G0,356, an increase in ten years OF
7,l36,93S. In the native States, how
ever, there was a total decline Of $685..
13e. In Baroda, for example, the pop.
Ulation last year was Oh GAS. In 1891
Il was 2,415,39G. In the Rajputana
agency the population decreased in ten
years from 12,O1G,102 to 4,Gl0,OJ5, and
In the Bombay States from S,OoJ, ,29S to
e,9OS.6lS. The total population OF the
native States in 1901 was GGOlT, ,4ST,
and in 1901 It was O. ,iGl $40. This de.
crease the authorities attribute entirely
TO the devastating famncs of the last
ten years. Tho total amount expended
for famine relief in 1000.1901 was
Ia.125, 80. nearly double the expeudi
Surc Of the preceding year.
