Uncle Sam as cnnid.
Globe, Arizona

One of the little details that fall to the Phillipine government is that of finding husbands for the orphan girls of the institution bearing the name of the Hospicio de San Jose, and to do this is no easy matter. Before the Fiji ipino will consent to go to the altar he has to be shown a monetary advan- tage-in fact, bride without dowry wouldn t get a husband in a thousand years. Uncle Sam s agents, after won- dering why there was such dearth of bridegrooms for their pretty charges of the HospieiO, finally discovered that in order to marry them off dowries would have to be found. As the result a matrimonial brokerage commission nas been formed. Through this, $50 is offered to any young Filipino of good character who will take one of the or phan maids as his life mate, but no bar gain is closed until after official cu- pids have Thoroughly examined into the history of the -to-be.-Phil- adelphia Press.

COST OF CANAL WORK.
Figures Show Government Is Getting
 a Lot for Dollar.

It is common enough nowadays to hear people remark that the government is certainly going to build the canal; and that the work is going ahead rapid ly and well; but that the cost will be "out of sight, "because government work is always SO costly, you know!'
 While 1t is too soon yet to say what ynit prices will be reached for the bulk of the work, when the whole plant is in place and the operating force is "tuned up" the figures for cost of excavation in the Culebra cut for the past year are certainly interesting. It appears that the average cost of ex- cavating about 5,500,000 cubic yards, three-ffths of it rock, hauling it some ten miles by train, and distributing it on the dumps, was S2E, cents per cubic yard, which figure includes an arbi- trary allowance of 12 cents per cubic yard for the cost of the plant used. Remembering the tropical conditions, the reavy rainfall, the eight-hoIr day, the high cost of labor, fuel, materials, and everything else, this indicates that they are not only "making the dirt hy' at Panama, but making dollar do the most work possible-which has been set down by high authority as proper function of the engineer
 Again, in dredging work, we learn that at La Boca, on the Pacific end, an old French ladder dredge excavated during the past year 1,213,000 cubic yards, at an average cost per cubic yard of about 10 1-3 cents, the material being lowed out to sea in' hopper barges.
 Certainly figures like these deserve consideration by those who make rash generalizations as to the extravagance of government work.-Engineering News.

BRYAN AND THE TARIFF
Significance of the Opposition Move.
 ment in Alabama.

In commenting upon the movement
 started at Birmingham, Ala, to defeat
 the nomination of William Jennings
 Bryan for the democratic nomination
 for president, Hon. S. B. Cooper, rep.
 resentative in congress from this dis
 trict, said:
 ''I am not one of those who believe
 that the success of the democratic
 party in the next presidential election
 depends upon the nomination of any one man. I do not subscribe to the doctrine that the Democratic party should be orphaned in case one or even two men should die. I am not an idolatrous admirer of Mir. Bryan or in. deed of any other leader of the party. What is more, I do not agree with and cannot be induced to concur in Mir. Bryan s views regarding governmental ownership of railways and other public utilities. l believe, however, that al. though our party is plentiful in men of presidential caliber, Mir. Bryan is now easily in the lead for the nomination. and that unless conditions greatly change he will be the most available man. that can be nominated and the one that would most likely be elected
 All democrats have the right to ex. press their opinlon on this question, but when these gentlemen in Alabama who profess and call themselves democrats link their opposition to MT. Bryan with the avowed opposition to tariff revision it seems to me it is high time that the rank and file of the party, not to speak of the leaders, record their emphatic protest. Tariff revision or tariff reform has been the rallying cry of the demo. cratic party for the past forty years. Upon that issue we elected in 1884 and reelected in 1892 the only demo- cratic president chosen since 1856. There is, in my judgment, greater and more immediate need for tariff revision now than at any other period of our his. tory. True democrats recognize this and are determined to make concert ed and united effort to relieve the reople of the increasing burden of un- just taxation imposed upon them by the Dingley tariff. It will not escape the of democrats that this latest opposition to MT. Bryan and to tariff | reform, of which he is an eloquent and logical advocate, is voiced from the | center of the coal and iron industry of | labama and at time when that in dustry has but recently passed into | the coutrol of the steel trust, cor | poration that is one of the greatest | 5enefciaries of the Dingley tariff rates. | --Dallas News.
