Chicago has received an advertise
ment thru the Republican Convention
that she did not seek. The delegates
have come away with the conviction
that when it comes to torrid weather
of the real willing kind the desert
of Sahara is not in it with Chicago
They are right, except that they should
admit New York into the running. New
York and Chicago would run dead
heat with one another as to being the
hottest places in Summer and the cold
est in Winter of any under the shadow
of the Star Spangled Banner.

The Department of Agriculture gives
us the gratifying information that the
crops promise to be much greater this
year than last. Last year was not a
bumper year. but the farm products
reached the incomprehensible figure OF
$500. 100000, or enough to buy out
any two or three of the little Kingdoms
of Europe. If Autumn fulfls the
promise of Spring and Summer, our
crops this year will reach a value ex-
ceeding $S,OOO,0OO. 100000. This is
something beyond all comprehension
but we can get an idea of its relative
magnitude by comparison with the
estimated entire wealth of the other
nations of the world. The latest esti-
mates give the following as the entire
valuation of the conn tries.

The report has been started tina
President Roosevelt Will get even with
Speaker Cannon for the latter's con-
tinued opposition by having him lost
his job as the head of the House OF
Representatives. Unfortunately, fol
this report, President Roosevelt will
have no such power. Both their terms
will expire March 3, 1909, when the
President will become private citi-
zen, while the Speaker Will, in, al
probability, be member of the nex1
Congress, and if the Republicans con-
troll it, undoubtedly the Speaker of the

A singular case came before the court
in New York last week. Mrs Harriet
Rionda. who was horn in Great Britain,
can Her husband is a subject of the
King of Spain and does not desire to
change his allegiance. The court, there
fore. refused to issue naturalization pa
pers to Mrs. Rionda 1t is strange that
she should make the application. since
under the laws of all the civilized world
the wife follows the condition of the
husband, and the woman's rights move
ment has not yet progressed to that
point where woman living with hei
husband can have a separate citizen
ship, tho she may have a separate per-
sonal estate.

Military balloons

Editor National Tribune: A military
balloon was in use in the Army of the
Potomac, beginning with Yorktown
until and including the Chanceilors-
vile battle. Accents We're made from
near general headquarters and from
near Falmouth 1t could be plainly seen
above the trees. This was the last bat
tie in which it was used.
Probably the greatest results of its
use were its effects on the rebels. who
certainly believed that every detail of
march could be seen from it. The
results of such observations never
proved Illuminating to the Army of the

RATES TO THE 1sNcaMpMENT.

At the meeting of the Central Traffic
Association June 10, every effort was
made and every argument used by the
Citizens Committee of Toledo and
the officials of the G.. A. R. to get
favorable modification of the rates
to the National Encampment at Toledo
but without effect. The railroads are
pursuing the short-sighted policy OF
trying to make the policy of regulat-
ing the railroads SO obnoxious that the
people will recede from it. Instead
they are only hardening the people to
demand more rigid regulation.

The London papers learn that 16
new Cardinals are to be appointed, of
whom two will be Americans. This
will be some recognition of the Roman
Catholics of the United States, but far
from being adequate. There are far
more real Roman Catholics in this
country than in any other in the world
and they contribute more to the
Church's revenues Yet they have been
allowed only one Cardinal, where Italy
has 81; Spain, 5; France. 4; Germany,
2; Austria, 3; Brazil, 1; Portugal /;
Belgium, i; Ireland. 1; Bohemia, /
The policy has always been to keep the
control of the Church and its reyen-
ues safely in the hands of little circle
of Roman families.

drainage board. The protest
ants threaten, that if the work
is not completed at once, they
will bring an action to compel
the supervisors to have the
work finished and the ditch
opened into Boyer cutoff with
out further delay. The Willow
creek ditch is completed, but
has not been opened into the
Boyer cutoff for fear of flood
ing the lower portion of the
drainage system. Mr.. Cheyne
stated yesterday that he had
been advised that work on the
Boyer cutoff will have suf1i-
ciently progressed in a few
days to permit of connecting
the Willow creek ditch with it..
When this connection is made
the waters in the upper section
of the drainage district will be
released and the property own
ers now protesting against al
legged delay will have no furth-
er cause for complaint.
