years, and the breaker will be rebuilt
at once.
The company will provide places at
other mines for as many of the SOl
hands as can be. accommodated, The

Secretary Shaw Addresses til
Syracuse Chamber of
Commerce.

SYRACUSE, n. Y, April 2I.-Secre
tary Of the Treasury Leslie NJ. Shaw
was the guest of honor and chief
speaker at the annual banquet of the
Syracuse chamber of commerce last
night More than 800 merchants and
business men from this and neighbor-
ing cities were at the table. The sec
rotary was accompanied by General
Horatio c. King of New York
Secretary Shaw was given hearty
reception when lie arose TO speak on
"Nonpartisan Craftsmanship" In part
he said:
'SOme of the best work of the repub-
lie has been accomplished nonpartisan-
ly. Permit reference to few in
stances During the administration of
James Madison a law was passed Civ
ing the American shipbuilGer and the
American shipOwner monopoly of
our cOastwise trade. While this law
has bten many times assailed, no party
has ever dared repeal it, and its pres
cnce on the statute books is therefore
with nonpartisan approval What is
the result? We have the largest and
most prosperous, the cheapest and best
coastwise trade in the world.
About forty years ago there was in
augurated policy of internal improve
mcnt. BY noupartisan votes large
grants Of land and large appropriations
of money were offered as an induce
ment TO the construction Of translate
aud ranscontinental railroads
For more than hundred years
statesmen have dreamed and TALKED
and planned for an isthmian canal, and
now the hope of century bids fair TO
be realized. The government Of the
United States willingly pays $4,000
900 for the right of way, then promises
to spend probably $200,0O0,0OO in the
construction and other millions in the
maintenance and perhaps other mil
lions still in the defense of the canal
and then pledges itself to permit the
commerce of the world to enjoy this
short cut between the oceans on equal
terms. Fortunately the parties vie
with each other in ENTHUSIASM over the
prospect of making this the greatest Of
all contributions to the. worlds com
merce. wish nonpartisanly the par
ties would be as enthusiastic in their
efforts to create merchant marine to
the end that American material pro-
ducers and American shipbuilders and
American sailors might get their fair
proportion of the worlds, carrying
trade. The Spanish war, with its un.
expected results, placed the Pacific
ocean logically If not actually where
she has always been naturally, under
the sovereignty of the stars and
stripes. The opportunity is before us,
and sooner or later the American peo-
pie will appreciate it, and future gen
erations will not be slow in rendering
their need Of praise to the statesman
ship, partisan or nonpartisan, which
secures to America the legitimate
fruits of this enormous expenditure"

IT is announced that the board

fair has decided to have a woman 5
hall of fame at St. Louis This
announcement itself would be
enough to show that the ladies of

trouble for themselves, but when it
Is further stated that every woman
represented III the hall of fame will
be required to be prominent
member of the Pre- ient ultra-ff siion-
able society in one of the represen
tative American towns, it is ap-
parent that the dear things are pre-
pairing to tempt fate itself. When
the board gets through selecting
representatives for the feminine
hall of fame according to this re-
quirement, it will surely have inn
mortalized itself on account of the
enemies it will have made, and
will deserve to have an individual
hall of fame devoted solely to the
perpetuation of the memory of the
board of lady managers themselves.

THE spirit of progress hovers
impartially over both sides of the
lower Rio Grarde. l sation en-
te prises are springing into ex-
istence on both sides of the historic
stream, and acre by acre the rich,
alluvial soil of this valley is being
reclaimed from the region of prick
~ pear and chapparal. to be coll
verted into waving fields of rice,
corn, cane, or cotton, and thriving
truck farms. The latest irrigation
enterprise of importance to be
launched i'll this valley is that of
Las Rusias, on the Mexican side,
six miles above Matamoros. This
plant represents an expenditure of
SOC, 900 by its enterprising owner,
who is Juan H. Fernandez, the
well known merchant of Browns
vile. An extensive report of this
new enterprise is published in THE
HERALD this afternoon. The paper
takes pleasure in according to its
friends Fotyo lado credit for max
ing such a great stride in the line
of progress as this new develop
men represents, and is also gratified
to have the assurance that it may
soon have the pleasure of publish
ing accounts of at least two more
extensive irrigation enterprises
which are on foot on the Mexican
side of the river near Matamoros.
