FRIDAY, JULY 28, 1899.

FOB the benefit of Mrs. McKinley health, which continues to be poor, the President will this week take her to Lake Champlain, near Plattsburg, N. Y. How long they will remain there will depend upon the amount of benefit Mrs. McKinley may derive There will be no delay to any public buBinesB of importance, by this vaca tion, as the President will be connect ed with the white house by long di« tance telephone, and will be able to give the same attention to important business that he does while in Wash ington, and all matters requiring im mediate attention will be disposed of before his departure.

E. N. HUGGINS, of Columbus, Ohio, who ie always posted on. the politics of his Btate, said: "This will be a Republican year in Ohio. We will elect our state ticket by at leaBt fifty thousand .plurality. The Democrats haven't a ghoBt of a chance, and wouldn't have, even if they were not split into fac tions. No man the Democrats can put up will be able to defeat Judge Nash.

He is not only Btrong in his own right, but the popularity of President McKinley will bring out a very full vote in the coming election. Our people are enjoying a satisfactory measure of prosperity, and that makes the average Republican very well pleased to con tinue to cast his ballot for the party of his choice."

THE war with Spain abrogated all treatieB with the United States, and the treaty of peace, which ended the war, does not deal with commercial matters. Consequently, United States trade with Spain is now more or less handicapped. For instance, Consul Sprague, at Gibraltar, has just called the attention of the department of state to the existence of a differential duty of two pesetas—a fraction more than thirty-eight cents—between United States and British flour entering Spain, in favor of the British flour. The consul added: "The matter is of some importance, as at present American Hour can undersell any foreign importations in this line." When a new commercial treaty is negotiated with Spain, as one doubtless will be in the near future, such drawbacks to trade will be done away with, as President McKinley will insist that the United States be given every commercial advantage possessed by the "most favored nation."

"COBPOBAI." TANNEB, who haa baan personally intimate with Secretary Alger for twenty years, said, while discussing Gen. Alger's record and hiB resignation: "Whatever measure of failure could be charged to him as secretary of war—and, in my opinion, it is not by one thousand degrees as great as many seem to think—is justly more chargeable to the system in •ogne at the war department, that of bureaucracy and divided responsibility, than to Alger. The historian who Bums up Alger's career dispassionately, with full knowledge of events, muBt put him down as a really great man. He will be known aB a man who fell a victim to the infamous assaults of sensationalism. In all the great crises in the hiBtory of this government, there has been developed a wolfish side in the nature of the American people. This quality, when things do not go to suit the crowd, makes them demand a human Bacrifice. They want to rend and tear. I speak with full knowledge and memory of the days when a portion of the press lampooned Abraham Lincoln as a baboon and CIOWD, and derided Gen. Grant as a drunkard and butcher."

DEMOCRACY AND THE NEGRO. Two or three noisy colored men in Crawfordsville, who receive money from Democratic sources, have been yawping around ever since the last election in the interest of the Democratic party. They have loudly declaimed, with eloquence begotten of bad whisky, that the Republican party "is no friend of the colored man" and have protested that he should vote the Democratic ticket. They have never given any arguments showing that tho Democratic party is tho colored man's friend, and any statement from a Democratic source touching on this point is therefore interesting. Just to •how how beautifully friendly the Democratic party 1B toward the negro we Quote the following from the DemOtratid Louisville Timet of Wednesday, falyBSi "IF THB ADVOCATES OF LYNCHIRG9 FOLLOW OUT THEIR PLAN •V DEALING WITH BLACK BRUTES TO ITS LOGICAL CONCLUSION, THBBB WILL BB NO END UNTIL ALL THB NIGCtBRI HATE •TRBTCHBD HBM9,"

THE WEATHER MAN.

A Comparison of the Predictions for August By the Two Big Gaesaers.

The two weather prognosticators, Hicks and Foster, are agreeing in a surprising way regarding the weather we will have next month. Compare the two. Hicks says: "August opens in the midst of a regular storm period, bringing very warm days, falling barometer and blustering storm clouds, with local rain in scattered sections from 1st to 3d. Partial change to westerly winds and cooler nights from about the 3d to 5th. From Cth to 8th renewed warm wave with lower barometer, more blustering thunder clouds and local rains. Another change to cooler 8th to 10th. A Vulcan storm period is central on the 12th, causing another rise in temperature, fall of barometer and more storms of wind, thundei and rain from llth to 14th. The natural order calls for change to some cooler about 15th to 17th. Reactionary disturbances with moon at full, fall on 18th to 20th. Blustering clouds with show of rain in spots will appear at this and all other August periods. The 23d to 36th brings a combined Mercury and Vulcan period, with heavier rains, cooler nights—much cooler in the extreme north. Warmer the 30th, 31st."

Foster says the next storm wave will reach us on the 30th inst. or August 1, following a warm wave which will close the present month. The first cool wave is announced for August 2d. He CIOBCB his bulletin as follows: "Temperature of the week ending 8 a. m. August 7, will average below normal in the northern, above in the southern and about normal in the west of Rockies country. "The last half of July was calculated to average higher eaBt of the Rockies and lower west than the first half and of the laBt half of the month we are now near the coolest period east of the Rockies and warmest part west. "The coming winter will be of great extremes. A three weeks' early winter will be severe. Then three or four moderate weekB. A second winter wave will be long, with blizzardB and zero. A thaw will follow and thus keep'ng the unweatherwise guessing and suffering by not better understanding the faithful and never changing laws of nature."

WARNED IT IM

Exciting Scene Takes Plfioo In the Spanish Senate at Madrid.

REVOLUTION IS PROBABLE

The l:x irpl It Had Never Boon liusy l-'oi- tin' Army jind the IVople to Muiitt Common HUSO.

Scored by the Minister oi' the interior. Madrid, July 27.—The disovissicm of the army bill in the seuate yesterday led to uu exoiting scene. General Weyler, arguing against any reduotion of the strength of the army, warned the government that the present situation made a revolution highly probable, since it had never been so easy for the aany and the people to make common cuuse. He himself, he said, had never thoftght of heading a rising, but it must be confessed that revolutions sometime* cleared the political atmosphere and accomplished the work of regeneration.

Senor Dato, minister of^he !ntaftar, replying, severely censured (Janeral Weyler, declaring that a geuarai ifho, with 800,000 men, had foiled to aagpPMK the Cuban rebellion, had no right to make such threats, arfU that any attempt at revolution, no ntifttsr whom, would be proceeded againM vtih utmost rigor of the law. The sedataM warmly applauded Senor Dato's ijweoti. The army bill was adopted.

The Worst Plague Ttmt Ev L'poik Cuba, Says Gomee. Havana, July 27.—€n an ioterYUrw with General Gomez, printed in Ic Ajuolia the Cuban commander was quoted assaying: "Neverjhas a plague xn&e at flicting fallen upon Cuba-than the $3,000,000 asked from President for the Cuban soldiers. The money 1"* been the cause of ill will airocg thoae who, by right and justice, should be eternally united. "The history of the men is curious. It was thought at first that it ought not to have been received, as it was a dishonor to the Cubans. The aspect ie chaugsed now, anrl it should cause pain to see, wandering through Havana, soldiers begging for what it was supposed they would refuse. "The formation of the suf^emeotary lists of persons incapacitated in the war and the work of payment lAe already cost $0,000. This money was Jfauraiahed by Governor General Brooke, the Cubans do not possess tiie ground an which they trend. Tho#e who 4o act know the work and ecpfense involved are naturally impatient and hold responsible some one who in no way helped to get tho motley nor asked anyone to receive it. "Those whose nomas appear wi tfee supplementary lists sksuid not to ftmd before those who are en tfie lists, so as to preserve ortUr. "As the money was the g(ft at the American governmea4 I an pdnod ty the noninterest jhmafc taf ~^J^ai¥i who were trained to go kmmgvy an fbpr march to liberty. The republic iJUl pay them, but when is moertain. Impatience will not farther matters."

A prominent official here FMtavdqy said, regarding the annexationist papore started at Puerto Principe a Dmt day* a«?o, that two things were to be oanaidered first, that no tropical couttfrjr has eyer successfully administered a government without everlasting figktf aod revolutions and, secondly, tttffc no country had ever successfully colonized a tropical country, citing in tha latter oonnection England and India aad the West Indies. The official addufl that England had merely sent good men to India and the West Indies fi- a term of years, and was continually sendia# new blood to replace those leaving the coiony. "If," said the official, "tho Cubans are unfit for selfgovernment, they are equally unfit for statehood. Tho sentiment of the Cubans desiring annexation Is probably in favor of statehood or nothing."

Workmen Walk Out at Anderson on a Question of Honrs. Anderson, InG., July 87.—Sbiling to have their working houA obanged from a 10-hour turn in day and 13 at tffcght, the employes of the tinning department of the tinplate works walked out yesterday afternoon.
