Mr. Roosevelt and Mr.. Cleveland.

The President we are told, has misinter-
preted the treaty rights and obligations OF
this government at Panama and therefore
abused his powers The result? They will
be two-fold. First, we shall lose In Euro
pean respect No nation on that side OF the
-Ntlantic will accept the official statement
&c our case, but every one of them Will
mark us down in the scale of their feelings.
Second. we shall lose even more heavily
throughout Central and South America.
The countries 10 the south on this side of
the Atlantic, never too friendly, will now
Thoroughly dstrust and hate us, and cut US
i'm trade to the extent of hundreds of mil
lions of dollars. We shall pay heavily for
our canal whistle-so heavily that the great
est possible success of that enterprise Will
not make up the losses And all from hav-
ing a heady young man I'm the White House.
1t so happens that we heard something OF
this kind a few years ago from these same
gentlemen when Venezuela was the topic
They asserted in the most positive terms
that Mr.. Cleveland did not know the true
meaning of the Monroe doctrine. and that
his letter to the British government. in
effect demanding arbitration for the bound
AIRY line dispute, was a blunder of the first
magnitude. 1t would make us contemplate
in the eyes of the world. and would cost us
not only the friendship of Great Britain but
a good deal of her profitable trade And all
from having heady old man in the White
House.
The country sustained Mr.. Cleveland in
his action, the republicans yielding quite
cordial support as the democrats, and the
Croakers We're COMPOUNDED We lost no
ground in the good opinion of the outside
world and for Great Britain, when were
our relations with her ever so cordial as
now? She Is our best friends among all the
nations. and our trade with her is still very
large and profitable And as for the Mon
roe doctriue, 1t is better understood and
more generally Endorsed today, both at
home and abroad. than ever before. and
largely because of Mr.. Cleve,and's assertion
OF it.
So let us not despair in the case of Mr..
Roosevelt and Panama. Why not stand by
him as We did by Mr.. Cleveland? Why pre-
dict loss of prestige and of trade in Cen
trail and South America, when they are to
profit quite as much by the digging and op-
Grating of the canal as other countries in
proportion to their resources and business
alertness? What more likely than that
they Will soon thank US for our energy in
meeting and solving a very difficult prob
lem? What acre of theirs is in peril
from us?

have a site. Why should he not pay hand
somely for what he gets? Make the old
plutocrat come down literally with the
dust.
We entered into negotiations with CO.
lombia about the Panama canal. We could
not have concealed our strong desire for
waterway had we tried, but We did not try
Colombia knew our feelings in the premises.
and also that we were fat of purse. And so
she decided to hold out for her own terms.
That we were completely In her power she
did not doubt. Her own price, or. no canal.
That in substance was her ultimatunn. She
overreached herself We shall get the canal
without her. Extortfon is sometimes
dangerous game to play.
And nov we have the story Of these
Spanish ars. Their usefulness in the
Philippir Islands was at an end. The in
terests their church as well as Of the
civil go eminent called for their departure.
Their landed holdings therefore came into
the market, and the authorities at Rome
sent special representative to Manila to
conduct the negotiations on the part Of the
church. The friars demanded the whole Of
the purchase money. but the Vatican in
sisted on a portion of it in behalf Of the
church in general Therefore the fore
handed friars raised their figures to four
teen million dollars, 50 as to make Uncle
Sam pay them what they wanted to take
away. The pope's representative. however,
refused to indOrse the raise. and the lands
are to pass into our possession for six mil
lions.
Uncle Sam Is rich and prosperous. but is
not wasting his substance in riotous living.
nor Is he in a trade always the easy
mark that some people imagine.

ital of the country one of the most attract

in an interview in The Washington Star.
wherein he declares himself against any
niggardly policy on the part of Congress
in dealing with the proposition of economy
on short-sighted lines and cutting down the
expenses of the government, for the rea-
son that it tends to curtail the activities OF

Ship-Board Gambling.

Every few weeks story comes from
New York to the effect that card sharps
have been caught at their tricks on the
oceanic steamers, and that indignant pas
sengers, f1eeced by them, are hunting for
means of Furnishing the swindlers. The other
day man accused of tricky play On an
incoming liner leaped ashore before the
ga ng- plank had been secured and escaped
detection. The steamship companies do all
they can to prevent such scandals. They
will even refuse to take the paSsa gr money
of men whom they. recognize as profess
sional gamblers, and on the filing of CON-
plants the officers of the ships warn the
offenders to keep out of the card rooms.
But still the games go on AMI innocent
who find these vessels rich field of opera
tons. harvest many a big roll.
If all respectable ocean travellers who feel
inclined to while away the tedium of the
voyage by card games will refuse 10 play
with strangers the gamblers would he COM

don the ships. They quite sure, how
ever, of being able to strike up acquaint-
ances on board and to wheedla men Of
means into games with them or to insnudte
themselves into the play between friends.
SO notorious are their operations that it is
a marvel they continue to succeed.
The facts of their tricks and their fire.

abroad in the prints. Yet their victims
continue to offer themselves, forsetfal of

Frost gifts sharp
An Norf Win howls.~

Trouble gwineter
Staht dis way.
But Is givin'
Thanks sincere
