GROWTH OF THE COUNTRY
National Expenditures Have Simply
Kept Pace with the Nations
Unique Development.

If Mr., Parker would consent TO de-
scend to particulars instead of dealing
with generalities when on the subject
Of national expenditure the American
people would have more respect for
him. 1t is all very we'll to denounce
extravaganza, but such denunciations
have little or no effect on the public
mind. II is absurd to institute compar-
lsons between expenditures of different
periods, for they depend upon the ma
tiOnal growth and could only be fairly
compared if the country were in an
arrested stage OF development. Judge
Parker points out that during Mr.
CleYelands S hrst term the average an
nual disbursements OF the government
were much less than they are at pres
ent. but he does not let us Know
whether anything was accomplished
in the way Of properly meeting the ma
tional needs during the democratic ad-
ministration. 1t may happen TO have
been the case that the smaller sum eX-
pended during Cieveland's term repre-
sents greater degree Of extravaganza
than the larger disbursements OF later
years. At any rate, 1t IS up 10 the
critics of republican expenditures to
point out in which items extravaganza
IS displayed, and not to cOntine them
selves TO wholesale denunciation Of to-
tails.
The reason why Judge Parker does
not particuIarize is known to everyone
who has anv familiarity with the sub
ioct of national expenditure. If he
shouId attempt, saws the San Francisco
Chronicle TO furnish 4 bill of details
# would he posstbIe for renublicans 10

charua is orourdIass IF for instance

The quantity of wheat retained for
consumption in the United States
never reached 275,Oo0Oo0 bushels
prior TO 1880. In 1881 it passed the
300,OO0OoO line and slowly increased
with the population; in 1899 it was
over 400 100000 bushels; In 1902 it eX-
ceeded 500,O0O.00O, and in the fiscal
year ending June so, 1904, was 517-

Lady Eleanor Wickham, the London
society leader, has craze for wearing
little grass snakes for bracelets. She
entices the reptiles to twine them
selves around her wrist, then she
plunges her hands and arms into icy
cold water for a few moments, with
the. result that the serpcnts become
torpid and remain in a more or less
comatose state for some hours. Thus
she is able to preside at afternoon tea
with her arms covered with living
snakes as bracelets.

A POINT FOR YOUNG MEN.
Do They Agree with Judge Parker
That Our Flag Should Come
Down in Philippines?

The young men Of the United States,
by tens OF thousands, bravely volun-
teeTed to put down insurrection in the
Philippines Our treaty with Spain
touching the great archipelago on the
far side of the Pacific was clnched by
the valor and sacrifices of armies com
posed Of young Americans. Judge Par
ker has just said in letter that he is
in favor of telling the hundreds of
tribes in the Philippines at once that
they will eventually be given indcpel-
ueuce on the same basis as the Gu
bans. That is to say, argues the St
Louis GlObe-DemOcrat, we should now
assure the Filipinos that their nag will
so up and the United States flag come
down that we retain only a naval
station by treaty; that the Filipinos
conduct their own independent govern
ment imposing a tariff against our
goods, and, doubtless, increasing ii. as
Cuba has just done, and negotiating
national loans to be distributed amCng
Filipinus, also on the Cuban plan. Was
it for this pulling down of the flag
that the noble arimes of young Ameri-
cans fought and hiked in the Philip
pines? Judge Parker's proposed sur
render of the islands has not yet been
discussed in this country. He has
pledged himself TO act now without
any popular debate or congressional
consideration. His convention tele-
gram and his letter on the Philippines
show that he is an extremely unsafe
man, erratic, premature and generally
dangerous in his egotistic movements.

CAR BARN
J ! IS BURNED

!. fife broke out at o'clock last
snfsM in the old Lidgerwood car barn.
4 fTte building and contents are a
6ta loss. When the fire was dis
covered the building was mass Of
flames. The building was occupied by
IL. j. LaClair, who conducted grocery
store. 1t was with difficulty that
LaClair and his family escaped.
The fire department had a difficult
time in keeping the fire from spreading
The nearest fire plug was 1900 feet
from the building. But one line of
hose was laid but the pressure was
fairly good. Grass fires continually
started and it was only through the
efforts of the citizens and the depart
ment that the Lidgerwood sanitarium,
directly opposite, was saved.
Ten minutes after the first alarm
was turned in second alarm was
sent in from Mussey Hill. This call
ed out practically the entire depart
ment The alarm was intended for
the first fire.
The old car barn was owned by
David Glass. Mr.. Glass states that
the building was worth about $4,000
with $500 insurance.
The loss of La Clair amounted to
about $500, with $500 insurance. The
fire was reported at sos o'clock.
