Tho Russia continues to act sullen and
stiffen up .Servia to make trouble there is
every hope that peace will be preserved N
the Balkans. The powers have agreed to
represent to Servia that she must not ask
for anr territorial compensation. Austria
agrees 10 pay Turkey S10,000,O00 which
viii be very welcome 10 her empty treasury
and will retain not only Bosnia and Herr
goyinia but her privileges in Novibazar.
This latter is an effective repression Of the
Serrian and Moptenegran aspirations.

Again we have the fact pointed out to
Us that there are no monuments to the most
useful things in the world. A Pennsylva-
MIA hen passes into history, and possibly
to the spring chicken broiler, with a mem
DRY of having laid 1860 eggs, or one a
day for 10 consecutive years. There ought
also to be testimonial to the man who
kept tab on her. After all he employed his
life more usefully than If he had sat on a
store box and saved the country by dis
ctIssing free silver.

There is pleasant little dilemma for
Bryan in Nebraska. The Legislature Is
Democratic in both Houses and if events
are allowed TO take their natural course
will undoubtedly send the Peerless One
TO the Senate. On the other hand it is
hard to see how he and his supporters can
resist the logical plea that the Oregon plan
should be introduced and the question sub
znitted to the voters OF the State. If this
is done there is possibility not to say
likelihood, that the voters will prefer a
Republican. So there you are
