A READY INDORSER.

President Roosevelt's guide and ally in the Panama coup, former Minister Bunau-Variila, writes letter in Paris sustaining the Presidents course in that affair. He declared that in pro- tecting the state of Panama against the Republic of Colombia MT Roose- welt performed his bounden duty, his whole duty, ard nothing but his duty"
 This is somewhat like a man indors- ing his own note or a general 70. K" ling his own bulletin. Besides this Panamaian who got a canal for the worlds commerce cut through his country at no expense to it's people, with a guarantee of perpetual protec- ton, and in addition a s10,000, 900 bonus n cold cash, would be an ingrate indeed if he wouldn't certify to any thing to help his benefactor.

THE LESSON OF MAINE.

The Democratic vote cast in Maine on Monday Sept. 12) was larger than in any previous election within eight cen years, and larger, it might fairly be said. than the straight Democratic vote at any election in the history of the State There was a short period, from 1880 to 1886 inclusive, when the Maine Democracy cast more votes, but that was due to the temporary Green back fusion. which carried the state in September. 1880.
 Of course it would be easy to exag- geTate the importance of the Maine re turns. They give no certain assur- ance of what other states will do, any more than those of Vermont It would be folly to suppose that the 175,000 voters in these two rural states can settle or can indicate the decision of fifteen million voters in the nation, more particularly the million and half voters. largely city dwell CTS, in the State of New York. But in the absence of any better guide there is some interest in applying the Maine proportion to other parts of the country.
 The latest returns. which are not quite complete. indicate a Democratic gain of 30 per cent and a Republican gain of 15 per cent over the vote of 1892. Similar changes elsewhere would give New York to Parker by a plurality of s7.OOO. New Jersey by 5000, Rhode Island by 6,000, Maryland by 32,000, Nebraska by 5000, and Utah by 300 These, with the States car ried by Bryan in 1900, would be ex- actly enough to elect. In addition, Delaware, West Virginia and Indiana would be in doubt if these percentages of gain were to prevail.
 The actual results in November are likely to be considerably different from these interesting possibilities But there is in the Maine result, and in the state of Democratic and inde. pendent thought in the nation which it and other signs reveal, the inspira tion of moral courage, of political cour age-an inspiration for men who be lieve their quarrel just to strive witt new courage that their principles, theil ideas and their convictions of Tigh shall prevail.

TO RUSSIA AND JAPAN.

InterparlianAentary arrangements for the preservation of peace through out the world. for the cessation and prevention of war, will acquire prac- tical status if the conflict between Russia and Japan can be stopped. There is now such a crisis in the war that the restoration of peace is at least a possibility. An opportunity exists for the attainment of the greatest vic tory of peace-the victory of ending a narrowing war.
 The InteTparliamentary Peace Con gress at St. Louis aGopted a resolu- ton appealing to the Powers signatory to The Hague treaty to intervene, at the proper time. to restore peace. The resolution requests the Powers, sepa- rately and collectively, to proffer their best offices. This resolution was of fered by Count Goblet d'Alziella of Belgium, and was approved by the rep resentatives of fourteen Governments.
 Some method should be discovered whereby the resolution may be urged upon the Powers and directly upon the belligeTents. It is not improbable that the appeal would produce effect as there are indications that peace i would be welcome to both. And ii the resolution be urged upon the Pow CTS and the belligerents, the Twelfth nterparliamentary Peace Congress ! may become memorable for havins done the most practical work towa-t
 making universal peace a permanen condition.

THE TWIN BUTTE MINES
They Look So Good That Railroad
 VIII Be Built to Them.

Will Be Built to Them.
 Tucson. Sept. 15.-The Star says Mayor Rose, of Milwaukee, who ad- dressed the Democratic meeting here tonight. is the president of the Twin Buttes Mining Co. He is satisfied from the reports of experts and his own personal examination. that his company has about the biggest thing in a mineral way in Arizona. So sat isfisd is Mayor Rose of this that ex- tensive work will be begun immediate ly.
 Without any delay, work on three compartment shaft will begin. and within a few months the work will be gin on the construction of railroad between Tucson and Twin Buttes.
 Mayor Rose will have a conference with the officials of the Southern Pa cific within few days and efforts will be made to induce that company to build a branch to Twin Buttes. If the Southern Pacific will not undertake the enterprise, the company of which Mayor Rose is president will build the railroad. Mayor Rose is determined on this.
 The Twin Buttes mines" said May or Rose today. "are always beyond what our most sanguine expectations were when we took hold of the proper ty. We are now satisfied that we have a great mine. We will begin taking out ore as soon as we can ano we must have a railroad between Tue son and Twin Buttes. If the South ern Pacific will not build branch, We will build a road ourselves. We are entirely satisfied that the mine is rich enough to justify the construction and operation of a railroad"

SAFETY ON THE HIGH SEAS.

In the times of Henry Morgan and
the other buccaneers Of the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries the name
of a Spanish galleon was always signi-
cant of a treasure-ship conveying al
most incredible wealth across the At
lantic. How eager was the quest of
the British freebooters for the vessels
which we're laden with precious car
goes of silver, gold and gems consign-
ed from the old world to the new!
Those we're days Of daring adventure,
of slaughter and massacre, the Span
iards almost invariably becoming the
prey Of the British vikings. Nova
days many millions Of gold are sent
over the ocean in a single steamship
without dreao of peril. Upon the At
lantic ferry a leviathan Of the deep
may at any time transport gold bars
worth a dozen millions of dollars and
the captain OF the boat does not lose
wink of sleep because he has such
store of riches on board. His ship
and his cargo are fully insured and
there are none to modest him or to
make him afraid.-New York Tribune.

oUTWITTlNe THE SANDS.

In his article From Coast to Coast
in an Automobile" in the May Worlds
Work, NJ. c. Krarup describes how
the motor car was gotten over a sand
hill. The means devised for this emer-
gency consisted of two strips Of can.
vas, six feet wide and twenty-four feet
long. Where the sand is round-grain-
ed, loose and dry the driving wheels
of car can get no hold, but spin
around as in water or Shiny mud. Our
strips of canvas, laid on the ground
for the wheels to run over. held the
sand together, and then the motor
power was sufficient to drive us ahead.
In this manner the two strips, each
laid down three times, took us over
Wadsworth hill, much to the astonish-
ment Of a number Of citizens who had
assembled there with team Of horses
and stout tackle to help us.

Through his friend, Elliot Danforth,
formerly State Treasurer of New York,
Judge Parker has authorized a state.
ment of his views concerning ques-
tons that are to enter into the ma
tional campaign of 1904. Restrained
by his judicial dignity from the ex.
preston of his political sentiments in
public speeches or in open letters,
Judge Parker has maintained reserve
that by some people-notably his op-
ponents in the race for the Democrat.
ic nomination-has been construed to
indicate neutral state of mind and a
lack of the positive assertion which
is regarded as essential in an asplrant
for the Presidency. Grounds for this
criticism disappear in the light of the
Danforth declaration. Certainly no
fault can be found, on the score of
vagueness, with the candidates posi-
ton regarding the tariff. He is a
Democrat and he would therefore lend
his aid in the ripping up of the Ding
icy tarlH' mat much Is clear from
Mr., Danforth's authorized exposition:
I'm conversation recently had with
him at Esopus, Judge Parker made it
clear to me that the question of taxa.
ton, now, as always, is of vital i'm
portance to the people, and that the
great mass of American producers and
consumers demand a revision of the
tariff that will equalize the burden of
taxation and distribute equitably its
benefits.

of reducing customs duties wherever
they shelter the trusts and wherever
they enable lawleS hasiSsl 10 wiring

"Diary" has not yet reached this coun-

tain selections from this amusing
store of anecdotes. The following
story the diarist got from Mr.. Robert
Lincoln when he was American minis
ter to Great Britain:
Only three persons were present
when Lee surrendered; Lee himself,
Gen. Grant and |, who was the aide
de-camp Of the latter. What really
passed was this: Lee came in superb.
ly dressed, and wearing the sword
which had been given him by the ladies
Of Richmond. Gen. Grant and l had
been separated from our baggage, and
had on the clothes we had been wear
Ing for a week. Gen. Grant jotted
down the heads Of the terms of sur
render upon piece of paper. Lee made
one or two alterations, also in pencil,
and gave. tie paper back to Grant,
who said: Eyes, that'll do. Now let

DIFFERENT MACHINE GUNS,

The first machine gun of any note
was the Calling. The original Calling
had ten barrels placed in a circle
with a breech mechanism so arranged
that by turning crank these barrels
were successfully fired, the cartridges
being placed in small hopper stu.
ated on the top of the gun.
The Hotchkiss was a similar gun
having a similar arrangement of bar.
rels, but totally different mechan.
ism. The Hotchkiss system, however
was used for larger type Of ammu.
milton than the Calling. The French
mitrailleuse had thirty barrels. They
were all loaded at the same time and
all fired simultaneously. The recoil
was so great that it had to be mount.
ed In the same manner as fieldpieee,
on a heavy carriage, requiring six
horses. The apparatus was clumsy,
difficult to operate, and had a COM
paratively slow rate of fire.
The Nordenfeldt gun consists of a
series Of barrels arranged side by
side, like organ pipes. The Norden-
field gun generally has five barrels,
and the mechanism is worked by a
lever, the cartridges falling down
from a hopper on the top of the arm
into position, where the mechanism
thrusts them into the barrel, fires
them and extracts the empty case.
This gun is of great simplicity, and
for a time went into extensive use.-

LOSS FROM TYPHOID.

The Michigan physician who puts
the annual money loss to the United
States from typhoid fever at $50,000,-
900 is far from setting forth the full
truth. He reaches his estimate by
assuming $1,000 as the average value
of the lives sacrificed and he omits
all account of the money spent in the
care of non-fatal cases. The real val
ue of the lives lost-so far as such
value can be expressed in money
might more properly be rated at $5,-
900, and at least 500 on the average
must be spent on victims who re-
cover. On this calculation, assuming
that the Michigan physician is correct
in his number of cases, the annual
loss to the country from typhoid is

High FINANCE"

In his most interesting testimony
at the gas hearing, Thomas w. Law
son, testified that he and his friend
Rogers had for nine years been on
very intimate terms. Business trans
actions aggregating more than $780,
100000 had been carried on without
any writing having passed between
them. There were $46,000,0O0 made
without stroke of the pen.
That so little gas escaped with such
careless leaving open Of the win
dows is the real wonder. Such con-
fiding brokerage has seldom been on
record. BY sort of wireless telegra-
ply these great sums of money seem
to have been passed around while the
real thingness Of the thing remained
profound mystery.
The secrets of reorganization thus
grow more and more profound. Trans
actions can be made out of wind and
gas so fine that they transcend the
science of accounts and intricacies of
bookkeeping.
Those who attempt to make some
thing out of nothing naturally find
themselves encountered with such diff
ficulties. That in the midst of their
tolls they smite so serenely and carry
so supreme an air of innocence only
shows the high financial strata in
which they live, move and have their
being.
How thigh finance" can thus re-
solve itself into grotesque shapes and
