MORE and more varied are becom-
ing the uses OF the telephone. Last
week the cots of Samaritan hospital in
Philadelphia were connected with
Grace Baptist temple, more than .
mile distant, and the whole service
was transmitted to manned and sick,
The apparatus in the temple consisted
OF five megaphones suspened by wires
with the larger ends near the pulpit
and the smaller connecting with the
transmitters on lines that led to the
fifty telephone receivers in the hos.
pital. So pleased we're the patients
that it was decided TO make the ex.
pertinent a permanent appliance Of
the hospital.

Mr.. HEARST may not be President
the next term. but if he lives fou r
more years of his consistently correct
lille, with the great opportunities be
holds for doing good for the masses,
there is strong probability that the
will OF the people may then be able to
assert itselfitself in logical way for
securing radical reform. Nothing
could conduce more surely to that re.
suit than four more years OF Roosevelt.

An American Abroad.

A letter written by Oscar S. Brown
at Sidney, New South Wales, to his
brother T. L. Brown, of this city, dated
April 25th, betrsys the fact that no
matter how far an American may be
from home, he holds prominent all the
prevailing traits of his nationality.
No place is like home to tie true
Yankee, though he be in land of
plenty with sunny skies and the air
redolant of the perfume OF tropical
growth. A few extracts from the letter
will be interesting to most of our read
ers.
cit hardly seems possible that you in
the northern hemisphere are just begin
ming to enjoy your summer, while here
we have had ours and winter is coming
on.
The first thing l noticed, after pass
ing the equator, was that as l faced the
south the sun was behind my back. and
when facing the MONDAY sun it rose on
my right instead of my left, and upon
landing at Auckland, N. T., the next most
important thing l noticed was that the
people were "hooked" backwards as
bad or worse than the sun.
occasionally look myself over to
see if in crossing the line had not be-
come slightly twisted on the bias. l
found l had to learn everything over,
from Harvesting a horse to eating my
"kie," and being rather settled i'm my
habits think l will move on before q
complete Formulation of ideas and tastes
occur.
How little we realize the immense
lead our country is giving the world, in
the race for better civilization until we
are thrown in actual contact with the
world at large! How proud am to be
known as an American while listening
to the biting vituperations of the dense
and jealous.minded beings here, who
could not follow our lead, no matter how
hard they tried! There is not much
danger of my settling in British colony,
as think even less of Australia than
do of New Zealand.
IL will soon make my way up through
the Suez canal and around the world to
America, in time to vote for "Teddy."
So rest assured that Uncle Sam has not
lost citizen nor you your brother"

A" CHAMPAGNE" FAcTORY.-An i'm
mense cider mill is to be erected on
Moran prairie, near Spokane, by the
Evergreen State Fruit Co., which owns
GOO acres of land, 200 of which are in
bearing apple trees. Prof. VIM. d.
Carlisle has been secured as Superin.
tendent OF the factory, and he is said
10 be an expert in the business that will
be established. He says that as fine
"champagne" (cideD ~ ever was i'm
ported from France can be made from
Washington apples, which run about
four gallons to bushel. A great deal
OF the champagne ostensibly imported
from Europe is made from American
apples, not always shipped over the
ocean to attain an epicurean flavor,
and Mr.. G. thinks that if we could
produce a quarter million gallons this
year we could find market for every
pint Of it in Chicago alone. The work
on the factory will begin the middle
Of summer and it will be ready for Cd.
Grafton about the LIST OF October.

"Politics and Business. !"

Oly, in an article on the general
outlook, entitled Politics and Bust
ness" takes the ground that as the
President has very little to do with
the conditions of trade, there is really
no good reason for attributing depres-
sion during so called Presidential wears
to that cause, as it is Congress which
formulates policies which bear upon
all forms OF business. One fact seems
to be lost sight of, however, by that
veracious little advocate of political
economy, and that is that the same
wave of popular sentiment which car
ries President into power is likely to
sweep Congress of like party sffilia.
tions into place, and ii thea is auy
truth in the belief that it :. possible
change of policy in public matters that
affects the delicate arteries of trade,
the cause is in no way removed by
attributing the responsibility to an
other branch OF the governmental SER
vice equally under popular control.
And when the conditions are intensi.
fled, at the general elections, the prob
ability that one may possibly be a
check on the other, is considerably
lessened, if not removed.
Then again, we must consider the
probable perversity of mankind, mani.
tested in a policy likely to bring to
the surface all the sordd selfishness of
human nature. The deliberation with
which great schemes for controlling
the politics of the country have been
planned, as in the Presidential steal of
1876, every detail of which was ar
ranged long before the election was
held, indicate most clearly that like
incentive may cause similar means for
producing a desired result now. It is
easy enough for those having control
OF the manufacturing interests to give
another turn to the screws affecting
labor at the critical moment, and make
specter of the empty dinner. pail a
menace for support of party and prin.
ciples not approved by the goldbugs in
power. The threat OF hard times has
been SO often followed by realization,
that very little doubt remains either
that the power exists or that party
zealots do not hesitate to use it when
ever patriotism is supplsnted by the
narrow impulses OF personal greed.
The unrest at the present time is
caused much more by the distrust felt
in the possible election of Roosevelt,
than in the probability that a totally
different rule will be inaugurated. A
large proportion of our people are lit
orally between the devil and the deep
sea, in making decision, under pres
ent conditions. and that undoubtedly
conspires to produce hard times.
The cessation of work in several of
the mills and camps" is not the cause
Of hard times, Is our contemporary
seems to believe, but il has a founda.
ton at the very root of the evil, and
is the result of conditions of unrest
incident to abandonment or adoption
OF policies which affect the very s,abil.
ity of free government.

THE Toledo Blade, in noting Oh.
jections to Cortelyou as Chairman of
the Republican National Committee,
considers the most important one to
be that he had never been q Republic
can till 1896, when he followed the
example of his chief, Cleveland, in re.
fusing to support Bryan and "free"
silver. While the Blade regards the
intent of this objection, would be OF
great importance, under other circum.
stances, it regards those who deserted
the Democratic party in 1896 and
made the success of Mckinley posi-
BILE, Is being Republican to the core"
It very naturally follows, however,
that if the disciples OF Cleveland and
the Palmer.Buckner movement were
Republicans to the core" surely the
whole apple must have been afflicted
with the blight. William McKin.
ley" it affirms, chad no doubts con.
corning their political beliefs, for he
made Cortelyou his private secretary,
although acknowledging that he had
been up to that time, a Democrat"
The less objections, passed over by the
Blade, are as to bis competency, but
it doubtless considers that the danger
from that cause is minimized by the
fact that Roosevelt intends to walk 10
Cortelyou's shoes and wear Cortelyou's
hat, during the coming campaign.
