FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 89, 1899.
To offset many of hie better gifts, Andrew Oarnegie has given $2,000 to the anti-imperialistic league. Why not give it directly to Aguinaldo?
THE Noblesville Ledger remarks that Hamilton county haB 500 Republicans who could ably represent thiB district in congress. The Ledger is posBibly excited.
PiNflKEE professes to believe that the newspapers drove Alger off the senatorial track in Michigan, but other people will go on believing that the ez-secrctary of war decided he couldn't win while carrying the hoodoo of Pingree'e favor.
THE industrious hens of Missouri laid 36,000,000 eggs last year for ship, ment, in addition to those provided for home consumption, and beyond the number necessary for hatching 70,000,000 pounds of chickens. This is giving the amnt and busy bee a close race for attending to business
THB Republicans of Indiana view with considerable'disgust^ the miserably inefficient fight that is being made by the party in the Indianapolis municipal campaign. The party organ is painfully silent on the outrageous street car scandal, in which Mr. Taggart took such a predatory part, and gives the Republican candidate a halfhearted backing. The whole aspect smacks of dissatisfaction and intentional mismanagement. Considering tbe importance of this election in its relation to the coming national campaign it beiiooves the state central committee to wake up and take a hand.
Tn reply of Gen. Simon Jiuckner, who was the Bound money Democratic candidate fotvlce president in 1896, to Colonel Bryan'B invitation to come /loaclTinto the fold, and the latter's plea for harmony, cannot be very encouraging or gratifying to that young man. The general says: "Not until they shall cease to distinguish between principle and temporary expediency between national faith and national dishonor between the welfare of the people and the exaltation of aspiring political charlatans between patriotism and party servility, will tbe national Democracy consent to he merged with the motley supporters of that mosaic of Populism, anarchy and public dishonor known as the Chicago platform of 1896."
MANIFEST DESTINY.
BxpansionB and triumphs have in the lapse of time profoundly changed American ideas as to the country's ultimate place and purpose among the nations, says Oharles M. Harvey, in the October Atlantic. No civilized nation except Russia has so many inhabitants as the United States. This eoantry's wealth equals that of the United Kingdom and France combined, tbe nations which stand second and third respectively on this roll. In time required for transit, the Phil ippineB are as near New York as Misaouri waa when Jefferson bought it. Oommmnication by telegraph with tbe remote corners of the earth iB instantaneous. Fremont, hoisting the stars and stripes at San Francisco in the later forties and looking through the Golden Gate at the broad Pacific, probably asked, "IB this the end of the westward march of the American race?" Dewey's guns in Manila bay on that fateful May day of 1898 were the answer. A new pathfinder has blazed new patha to the spread of
American civilization, influence, and power. "The settlers in Oregon will open to us the North American road to India. It lieB through the South Pass and the mouth of the Ore gon." The spirit voiced in these words of Benton when the nation was striv ing for a boundary on the Pacific ia more vital than ever, but the goal has been advanced. A richer prize than India lies before us. Dewey has opened to
UB

by way of the Philip
pines, the gateway to China. The world's future IB in the keeping of three countries,—Russia, England, and the United States. In the race for universal empire the two Anglo-Saxon nations, whose paths henceforth are likely to lie parallel, have an immeasurable superiority over Russia, and the larger, more progressive, expansive, and resourceful branch of the race is the American people, '""be hair of all tbe ages, in the foremost of. time."
OUR IMPERIALISTIC ANCESTORS. Fbr eighteen hundred years the Anglo-Saxon march has continued without interruption, and that march has been westward, 6ayB Charles M. Harvey, in the October Atlantic. No ground which they occupied was ever loBt. Wherever their flag went up, it stayed up. Their march's momentum, moreover, was constantly growingEleven and a half centuries passed between their landing in Britain and the landing at Jamestown. A century and three-quarters took them from James' town to the Alleghenies. And now, just as the older branch of the race with which Bonaparte's country had been warring for over seven centuries, had carried its flag from Oanada to
India, encircling the globe, the young er and more vigorous offshoot of the family, bursting through the barriers of the Appalachians, had pushed its vedettes to within

Bippi.
of the Miesis'
Terror at this menacing move
ment was one of the reasons which incited Spain, as a protection to her Mexican territory, which she valued far more highly than Louisiana, to throw France as a barrier across the path of the American advance.
To the imagination of Bonaparte, the soldier and the fatalist,
thiB
march
without retreat or reverse was majestic, tremendous. On the banners of this oncoming host, headed by the men of the western wilds, he read Orecy, Agincourt, and Quebec. And, still more imminent and portentous, there were the names of Bunker Hill, King's Mountain, and VincenneB. The Hengist, Horsa, and Cerdic of the western legions were there,—Boone, Robertson, and John Sevier. There, too he discerned the westerners' Arminius, George Rogers Clark. Jefferson, the civilian, had seen in tbe shouts of the Kentuckians and Tennesseans for im mediate war against France upon the news of the transfer of Louisiana by Spain to France, only a restlessness and an irritation which the possession of the Floridas and New Orleans by the United States might appease. If he could get possession of the east bank of the Mississippi, Jefferson would be willing to guarantee to France the west bank. Bonaparte, clearer-eyed and larger-visioned, knew that the weBt bank would be wrested from France within a few years, even if circumstances permitted him to occupy it then. It was not Jefferson who gained tbe territory west of the Mississippi. Nor was it Santo Domingo's war, or the war then about to open between Franca and England, which was destined to last a dozen years, and to end at Waterloo. These merely determined the time and
ttotr
conditions of its acquisition. It was the might of the American people, particularly of theic western contingent, the heirs of the traditions and fortunes of a world-maBtering race, which won Louisiana for the United States.
A CURIOUS and extremely interesting fact iB discovered by BtudyiDg statistics of our export trade. More than one-half of our exported manufactures go to the great manufacturing countries of the world. Of the $6,500,000 worth of agricultural implements exported in the past nine months $3,250,000 went to Europe alone. The agricultural (implement manufacturers of the United States mget the competition of Europe by excellence of workmanship. This line of manufactures already enjoys a large1export trade.
COLONEL BBYAN opposes tbe putting down of the rebellion in the Philippines because such a proceeding "means militarism, and militarism means government by force." Mr. Bryan gravely tells the people to whom he talka that an army of 100,000 men, scattered through different states and among the various islands under our control will prove a menace to the seventy million inhabitants of the United States—they are in danger of militarism and government by force
LOUISVILLE Times: General Harrison ia going ahead arguing Venezuela's case before the arbitration board at Paris, but he may be getting uneasy about his fee in view of the fact that the government which employed him IB in imminent danger of being overthrown. However, it is not unlikely that his native Bhrewdnesa and Hoos ier thrift moved him to draw his pay in advance.
THE Chicago Tribune says that John R. McLean, of Washington, is not the man to heaitate when the voice of the people callB him and that if he ia elected governor of Ohio, he will move to Ohio. The Tribune should understand though, that Mr. McLean has rented his, Washington house for the fall months only and has no real idea of remaining longer in Ohio.
AT St. Loqis, as at Ohicago, the discussion of the trust problem is largely lamentation of the dread possibility that, no matter what we may deaire to do to the octopus, he will nullify all adverse legislation by buying us up.
THE news account of the St. Louis •oaference gives the startling information that "there seemed a great difference of opinion as to the best method of remedying the so-called truBt evil."

AN ELOQUENTOADORESS.
Delivered by Governor Mount Tuesday on tbe Battlefield of Chlckaruauga, Where He, as a Private Soldier, Fought S5
Thirty-Five |\ara Ago
At the dedication of the Wilder Brigade monument on the battlefield of Ohickamauga, Sept. 19, Governor JameB A. Mount was the principal speaker and! bis was an able address. From the following extract of the governor's Bpeech one is able to form soma idea of the part (Indiana soldiers took in that battle: "I esteem it* a signal honor to stand upon the very^apot where I fought thirty-five years ago as a common sol dier and speak in| memory of the brave men of a great state. To-day the aur viving heroes of that mortal combat clasp hands in fraternal union acrosB a once bloody chasm. The combatants of then are comrades of to-day. Indiana furnished two divisions and eleven brigade commanders in the battle of Ohickamauga. Twenty-nine regiments of infantry were engaged in the battle, BB were also three regiments of cavalry and eight batteries of artil lery. The first field officer killed in this battle was Ool. W, B. Carroll, of the 10th Indiana. The only confeder ate battery captured at Ohickamauga was by the 10th Indiana, and the laat volley fired from Snodgrass Hill was by the 9th Indiana. Indiana Boldiers were the first to engage in this terri ble conflict and the last to retire. In diana had more men actually engaged in the battle of Ohickamauga and BUS tained a greater IOSB in killed and wounded than the United States lost on landgand sea in defeating the Span ish armies and destroying their fleets."
Clothing to Be Higher.
A. New York dispatch says: "AB result of the rapid advance in the price of wool winter clothing will be more expensive!this year than it was last The increase in the cost of a suit or heavy overcoat will be about $5, on the basis of the advance in the price of clothes already made, and there is general expectation that prices will go higher. Material for heavy beaver overcoats, which coBt $9.50 a yard last year, now costs $12. Ready-made clothing dealt in by the large firms will not feel the advance until next spring, as the present stock was made six months ago.

A SHARP CRITICISM.
A trenchant writer in the Indiana Weekly has the following to
H. R. TINSLEY CO.
Bay
about
the modern Sunday school: "The association of Sunday school workers has just discovered what the majority of laymen long since learned, that the present Sunday school methods and teachers are calculated to instill a hearty dislike of the Bible and the Sunday school in the pupils. The average Sunday school teacher knows little about his subject. He is given a tiresome lesson leaf on which stand a few verses wrested from the sacred text for no apparent reason, the page .filled out with a few scattering questions on the text, a list of references, a hymn, likewise without connection, a diagram of a bleeding heart or a broken lyre, and—always a golden text. An inspired teacher might furnish forth from these dry husks a bounteous feast for the hungry BOUIB, for the genuine teacher needs few tools—as Garfield realized when he said that Mark Hopkins at one end of the log and the pupil at the other, equalled any university. But the average Sunday school teacher fails to arouse any interest in the lesson among his pupils. He can not give the ancient narrative a modern interest. If tbe Sunday school is to inspire a love for the Scripture, itB directors should study, as other teachers have done, the art of making the lesson books attractive and instructive, and ifoey should Bee that the teacherB are teachers in fact, as well as in name."

UNITY IN HAMILTON COUNTY
Is Like the Irishman's Fits-Fan With the Central Committee Last Saturday.
A special from Noblesville says: "For many yearB this county has been handicapped at the congressional convention by having two or more candidates, resulting in defeat each time. Recently petitions signed by several hundred Republicans were presented to Chairman Smith, asking him to call a meeting of the central com mittee to arrange some plan of select ing ono candidate from the half dozen now in the field to be represented by the county at the next convention. The committee met Saturday and called in the various candidates and asked them if they would abide by any arrangement that might be made. They all agreed except T. E. Boyd, who insisted upon the right to have his name presented to the next con* vention. After a fruitless discussion of the matter and voting down motions for a delegate convention the committee adjourned without taking any action."

They Look Alike.
YOUNTSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 25, 1899 George M. Cowan, the traveling Bales man, and stockholder and manager of the woolen mills at this place, has a double here in the person of the Rev. Daugherty, recently sent here by tbe late M. E. conference held at Frankfort. So striking is the likeness that one is taken for the other almost every day. The wife of one of the operators at the mill tackled the minister one day last week for anew fence and other repairs about the house the family rent from the mill owners. Not a few of the M. E. brethren have stepped up to Mr. Cowan during the last few days and given him a genuine, old-fashioned Methodist hand shake, thinking him Bro. Daugherty. As Bro. Daugherty will not be with us next Sunday, Mr. Cowan said he would fill the pulpit for him. Waveland friends, please take a note. Shouldn't be surprised if George gave the steward a at the first quarterly meeting. 'BOB CHIESBHIBB.

It IB hard to say new things about Doan's Kidney Pills. They cure the lame and aching back, the sufferer from kidney diBorderB, and the troub les of those whose urinary-organism is wrong in its action. That they do this is so easy to prove that not a ves tige of doubt remains. Public endors3 ment of local citizens is easily proven Read this case:
Mrs. Adam Guntle, of No. 701 south Plum street, says: "As soon as learned about Doan's Kidney PillB went to Moffett & Morgan's drug store and got a box for Tommy Davenport, who lives with us. He is now sixteen years old and for a good part of MB life has suffered with a weak back and kidney complaint. At the time got the remedy he WBB complaining very greatly of his back aching. AB soon as he commenced taking Doan's Kidney Pills he commenced .to grow better, and after he finished the box got him two more. He took them both and they completely cured him."
Doan's Kidney Pills are for sale by all dealers price 50 cents a box Mailed on receipt of price by Foster Mil burn Oo Buffalo, N.Y., sole agents for the United States.
Remember the name—Doan's—and take no other.
