GEN. WOOD AND FAvoRITIsM.

The Philadelphia Record has been
looking up few facts in regard to the
extraordinary and rapid advancement
of General Wood over the heads of old
army officers.
Leonard Wood was appointed AN as
sistant surgeon in the army in 1886, and
became a surgeon five years later; he
assisted Mr.. Roosevelt in recruiting Il
volunteer regiment in 1898, and was
commissioned it's colonel in May of that
year. He participated in a three
months campaign, being in action twice
at Las Guasimas, where he led his
command into an ambush, and at San
Juan Hill, where his part was probably
praiscworthy, but by no means conspic-
uous. He was, however, made a briga-
der general Of volunteers in July. In
December he was created a ma jor
general of volunteers, having risen from
captaincy in precisely eight months.
General Lawton, a hero of many wars,
was removed that Wood might be made
governor of Santiago, and later General
Brooke, soldier whose gallant services
ran back to 1861, gave way that he
might become governor of Cuba.
| In 1901 he was entered as a brigadier
general in the regular establishment
| On August next, it is announced, he
will be made a major general. In the
regular course Of events, even if nc
further exceptional favors are pressed
upon him, he will in 1909 succeed to the
grade of lieutenant general and the
command of the army; if the presidents
favor continues, he may reach this
supreme honor earlier.
Promotion at this rate has never be-
fore been heard of in the military ser
vice of the United States. If it were
the result of the most brilliant military
achievements, of great conqucsts, mar
Vicious strategy, mastery handling OF
armies, it would still be astonishing
But it is the result, according to the
only justification advanced for it, OF
civil administrative work. If he lives
General Wood will command the army
of the United States at least fifteen
years. lie is without military educa-
ton; he has never displayed any spec
ial military ability.

LOOK TO THE WEST.

Chas. A. Walsh, Of Ottumwa, OF this
state, secretary Of the democratic ma
tional committee, says the democrats OF
the United States can win the next
presidential election if they will noml-
nate man such as Tom L. Johnson, OF
Ohio, or William r. Hearst, Of New York,
Mr.. Welsh was down in Kansas City
last Saturday when he made this pre-
diction. Now Mr.. johnson and Mr..
Hearst are good men in their way and
both would have a strong following.
But there are others. Judge Parker,
OF New York, has friends in every sec
ton and he comes from state that is
the most important of all states in the
electoral college. Senator Arthur p.
German, of Maryland, is a leader Of
leaders and he should be carefully con-
sidered before a decision is made. EN-
Attorney, General Olncy, of Massachu-
setts has a record that is true and
straight.
But why look to the east exclusively?
This great middle west, known as the
valley of the Mississippi River, has
some strong claims to attention. 1t
offers ex-senator Villas, Of Wisconsin,
one Of the ablest Of democrats and one
of the most acceptable Of men. He has
record in congress and in the cabinet
a record that will stand the closest
scrutiny. Already a movement has
been started i'll the Badger state that
gives signs of spreading.
To come little nearer to the center
of population there is busy MAJ
in st. Louis who measures up tt
the presidential caliber. His name
is David r.. Francis. AS governor o
Missouri he gave that state one o
the best administrations ithas ever had
, In other positions in public life Mr.
, Francis has proved that he has resour
} ces in reserve that makes him a remark
, able man.
5 The time has come for the east ant
south to look to the west for men witt
2 the capabilities that are called for
e men who have not been associated witt
r factional differences; men who ar

Silence has been the order of the day
recently regarding the scandals in the
postof1ice department. The party hacks
have perhaps been telling the suscept-
ible gentlemen who are still voting to
abolish slavery and not to reform the
condition of the country that every
thing of the graft kind has been stopped
and white dove might fly through the
department corridors without having
its immaculate feathers smudged. But
along comes the Indictment of Beavers,
and the charge translated into ordinary
English is that he charged employees
graduated sums for promotions, which
would draw different amounts from the
treasury. In connection with this true
bill it appears that former Congressman
briggs, also under Indictment, had rela-
tions with Mr.. Beavers. Heroic
measures are being used to prevent con-
gress ordering a full Investigation of
the postofiice service, but every indica-
ton is that the disease has progressed
too far to be thus arrested.

Interest in the biennial election
amendment that will undoubtedly be
submitted to the people by the coming
Legislature is being revived. The state
voted once biennial elections when the
Titus amendment was up. But the
courts decided that the Titus amend
ment was not legally submitted. There
is no reason to believe that there has
been any change of opinion since that
time, and the second amendment will be
adopted by probably increased major
ity. Elections once in two years come
often enough. Register and Leader.

What is the meaning of that great
slump in stocks which occurred in Wall
street the other day? 1t is said that
there has not been such a falling off in
the quotations of stocks in years, all
along the line. The republican papers
are taking CHEEKY view of the situa-
ton, and tickling themselves over the
fact that there We're no failures con-
seGuent. Is it not significant of 4
shortage of money in the country to
handle the business, and calling in of
loans by the monied men of the coun-
try made to spectators? We think it
is. While the country has passed
through this slump without serious
trouble, how many more of similar
slumps, where spectators arc ruined,
and fortunes pass in the twinkling of
an eye, can be weathered, without a
serious crash, is question. 1t is no.

For fear tho oil would get scarce
Rock efellar has ordered another adj
vance in price. 1t is stated for the truth
that the supply of oil is decreasing, in
other words the demand is greater than
production. Some months ago there was
a surplus on hands of 6l,O00,000 barrels
while today that has been reduced to
21,000,000. The daily consumption of
oil in this country is 100000 barrels.
The men who own good oil wells have
splendid prospects before them.

The Philadelphia North American
remarks that 1.-The Morgan trusts and
other concerns similarly organized are
in a condition analogous to that OF a
country which has issued paper money
far in excess of it's ability to redeem
and which has no intention to make its
paper good. Nobody will take such
money, and the public declines digest
or even to swallow trust 'shinplasters.
The bubblechasers have had their dream
of avarice, in which they saw them
selves wallowing in millions, and they
have awakened in panic to find their
wealth only the stuff that dreams are
made of. All their beautifully en-
graved securities in excess OF actual
capital might as we'll be counterfeit
confederate scrip so far as their ability
to dispose of it to the public for hard
money is concerned

DOES 1T PAY?

A report for the eleven months Of the
fiscal year 1903 shows the total value
of our exports and imports with the
Philippines to be S14,6SS,507. For the
fiscal year 1903 shows the total exports
aggregated S4,47S,336.
Three-fourths of our trade with the
Philippines represents imports. The
republicans have been telling us for
To-! these many years, that an excess of
imports over exports is a very bad con-
dition indeed, and to be avoided as one
would guard against smallpox.
The Philippine ledger shows trade
increase in four years Of $10,210170 per
year.
Now the question arises, what has it
cost us to get this business. We paid
Spain S20,000,0O0 to start with for the
privilege of shooting the natives and
making those we didn't shoot trade
with us. We have spent within the
period of our occupation about $780,
100000, which is conservative esti-
mate-in pacifying the islands. We are
spending at the rate of S40,00O,00O
yearly to keep them pacifed. There is
about ss,oOO,Ooo representing the bal
ance Of trade against us.
Does it pay?
OF course we have said nothing
about the loss we suffered in prestige
about the 10000 or more American
soldiers whom we put on the auction
block and sold their blood for this trade
We have not dwelt on this simply be
cause we are only discussing the ques-
ton Of wether expansion pays. The
conclusion is SO obvious that it need

A wise exchange remarks that much
OF the disorder in the country no doubt
is directly attributable to popular con-
yiction that the law is often inadequate
to reach or fifty punish it's violators,
and that still more frequently it is not
fearlessly and fairly administered by
incorruptible men on the bench. The
fact will bear constant repetition that

BURIED FACE DOWNWARD.
Negro superstitions Carried out in
Alabama.

The negroes have many supcrsti-
tions in regard to the burial of per
sons OF their race who have been
slain.
ON Saturday in the burial OF ne
gro woman who had been murdered
at Sayrcton, one Of the most peculiar
OF these beliefs cropped out.
The negroes would not allow the un-
dcrtaker to lay the body in the conn
IA is ordinarily done with the face
upwards They insisted that the corpse
should ho laid on its face, and II
was so placed they all refused to have
anything To do with the funeral.
The reason they gave for insisting
that the face he turned downward In
stead of upward was that 1t would
certainly make the murderer return
to the place and give himself up,
They claim most positively that when
the face is turned downwards that the
murderer can not possibly stand
against the cravings Of his conscience
and that the thought OF the crime viii
haunt him day and night until he is
forced, even against his will, to re.
turn TO the place and give up" to
the police.
Another peculiar circumstance came
to light in this burial Although "a,
