The Washington Post, in calling atten-

cussing the question, Shall Canada become
annexed to the United States or form a
closer commercial union with the United
Kingdom" unlike many newspapers. con-

of papers which would have the United

United States. Particularly. such papers
would have us give our farmers market

the British writer sets forth with the
declaration that this preferential duty has
failed TO increase British importations ap-
probably. In 1866 Canada bought of the
United States s2S,500.O0 coo worth of merchan-

WATTERSON IN THE WEST.
Brilliant Bird of Passage Along the
Irrigation Canals.

Butte Inter Mountain.
Since Colonel Watterson passed through
the West scintillating and singing his songs
of praise, the rains and the floods have
ceased and the voice of the turtle is heard
in the land. Nature has taken on her
gladdest smile and the spring crop of lambs
gambol on the range and never looked more
promising. Colonel Watterson barely
touched Montana in passing, alighting here
and there for wood and water but the
wool crop, instead of SO,OOoOOO pounds, is
more likely TO be 35, 100000 pounds.
The passage of the eloquent and observ-
ing. colonel through this neck of woods is
certain to do him good, as we'll as the
country generally. The gifted Kentuckian
can see for himself wherein his party hath
done this land a great injury from which
il is rapidly recovering under Republican
policies. Colonel Watterson's bluegrass
environment has not been such as to lead
him 10 a full appreciation of irrigation.
Living by the blue fields and the sweet
waters he has not seen the need of reser-
voirs and canals aids TO agriculture,
but even his meteOric flight across Mon
tana was enough to impress him deeply
with this important fact.
The colonel is no shepherd. He does not
know crook from a golf stick, but he
knows the difference between Scent wool
under Cleveland and 15-cent wool under
Mckinley and Roosevelt If he doesn't a
wool-gathering constituency can readily in
form him.
If Colonel Watterson is TO be the Demo-
cratic candidate for President-and a for
lorn and foot-sore party might do worse
ne should note these facts on his cuff in
red ink. They will aid him in forming new
tariff views and are therefore highly i'm
portant.

COMPLAINT OF A RUSSIAN.
Consul Says His Government Was
Treated with Contempt.

NEW YORK, July 21.-Paul Kosahevitch,
who represents the Russian government as
consul at San Francisco, declares, says a
Herald dispatch from that city, that Capt.
Abraham S Beckham. quartermaster of
the United States transport Logan, has
treated his government with contempt He
notified the Russian embassy in Washing
ton of the alleged slight upon the govern
ment of the Car. When the Logan ar
rived at NagasaH the United States consul
notified Captain Beckham that three men
had deserted from a Russian warship and
that they might make an attempt to reach
the United States. The troops on the trans
port obtained shore leave, and after they
had embarked and the ship was about 70
sail, the Russian consul at that port is
said to have demanded of Captain Beck
ham the privilege of searching. the Logan.
mo man will be allowed to search this
vessel" Captain Beckham is said to have
replied The Russian consul insisted that
he had the right TO search the ship for the
men and when Captain Beckham again re-
fused the consul declared that he would
bring the matter to the attention of his
government After being two days out from
Nagasaki three Russian stowaways attired
in the uniform of American troops are said
to have been found on board.

farmers Of the north and central northwest
it would be a sacrifice of a market with
out return, which would be an injustice.
1t would be the reciprocity of taking from
a man that which is his own and giving
him no return whatever. AS to the future
of Canada. whether it joins the United
States or clings to Great Britain, is a
matter of indifference to the American
people. 1t would take some time for
people which never lets an occasion escape
to show its intense loyalty to the home"
government and the British throne to be-
come patriotic American citizens. The real
controlling element in Canada's public af-
fairs is composed of the descendants Of
those who left New York and other
provinces during the war of the revolution
because of their loyalty to the British
throne. The ruling element in Canada has
inherited the loyalty of its forefathers and
also their dislike of the United States.
Controlled by such an element, Canada will
be a long time in coming TO the United
States, but doubtless its leaders will con-
tinue to be disagreeable in regard to
Alaskan boundaries in the hope that they
will finally badger the United States into
sacrificing valuable market to Canadian
farmers, while Canada will continue to
collect a third more tariff duties from
American products than from those of
Great Britain.

CHAFFEE'S HOMECOMING
The Logical Result of His Work in the
Orient-No Successor.
Milwaukee Sentinel.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
The homecoming of that sterling Amer
lean soldier, Maj. Gen. Adna r. Chaffee, is
the logical result of the close of the war
in the Philippines. General Chaffee has
performed most creditably the work he
was sent to do. and has added fresh laurels
to those he won at Santiago and in China.
Should the suffrages of the people be taken
on the question, who is the premier prac
teal soldier the fighter par excellence of
the American army to-day?" the answer
would undoubtedly be "Adna r. Chaffee"
There is no professional flummery, no mill
tary fuss and feathers, no turn for pomp-
Gus and contentious loquacity in the make
up of General Chaffee. From first to last
he has bent to his work with the grim and
business-like energy Of a Grant or a Kitch-
ener, never relaxing his efforts till the Job
was done, and thoroughly done His wei
come nome by his countrymen should be
popular recognition of the great value
of his services and the rare pith and sta
bility of his character. General Chaffees
official or professional reward has already
been decided on. BY right of merit and
seniority he has been appointed to succeed
General Brooke as the commander of the
department OF the East, post second in
importance to that Of the lieutenant gen.
eral of the army. The appointment is dis
tinctly a reward of merit and of service
rendered, and there is absolutely no room
for talk OF department pull or favor
itism.
Strictly speaking, General Chaffee will
nave no successor in the Philippines. The
work he was sent there to do was finishing
work-the stamping out of guerrilla war
fare which followed the insurTection prop
er. The part he has played in the island
was generally like that of Kitchener in
South Africa, and its close marks the open
Ing OF a rev phase and order of things-the
phase OF reconstruction and of organizati ton
on peace footing. To the command of the
division of the Philippines Major General
Davis, former governor of Porto Rico and
late commander in Mindanao. will succeed
Tor term or one year, or until his retire
ment in July next. General Davis should
fill the post creditably, and after his re-
tirement it might be ideally filled by Gen.
Leonard Wood-a man whose name would
be one TO conjure with in the Philippines.

PUBLIC LEDGER SOLD.
Old Philadelphia Newspaper Pur-
chased by AdOIph =. Ochs.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. July H.-The
Philadelphia Public Ledger was to-day pur-
chased by Adolph S. Ochs, from George ".
Childs Drexel and the Drexel estate, and
possession was at once given Mr.. Ochs. The
purchase includes all the Public Ledger
estate, comprising about half block OF
improved property on Chestnut and Sixth
streets, facing Independence Hall. The
price paid is not made public, but il IS
stated on good authority that two and one
quarter million dollars are involved in the
transaction. Mr.. Ochs has no associates in
the deal except that "A substantial interest
has been acquired by James NJ. Peck, Of
Philadelphia, who represented the pur-
chaser in the negotiations. There is no UNI
derwriting, and with the exception OF Mr.
Beck, Mr.. Ochs is the sole owner. The
new owners say there will be no radical
changes in the appearance or policy or
