FRIDAY, JULY 26, 1901.

MR. ADDICKS, of Delawai'e, asserts that "President McKinley has no backhone." Condemnation from Addicksis nraise indeed.

THE new census reportsi of France show a total population of $38,600,000, an increase in four years of only 330,000, of which all but 38,000 is in Paris. France finds but little comfort in the figures that again prove its population to be practically stationary.

THIRD ASSISTANT POSTMASTER GENERAL MADDEN followed up Post-master-General Smith's orders for such execution of the law as will shut out all publications not clearly entitled to the privilege of second class mail, with a letter to postmasters, informing them that their bondsmen are liable to be 'held for any losses incurred by the government through their failure or neglect to carry out the law in accordance with the postmaster-general's orders.

FRED D. HEUSTIS sends THE JOURNAL 6ome figures from his custom office for the Puget Sound district showing how the export business has picked •up under the McKinley administration. The first column below shows figures for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1897, and the second column for the year ending June 30. ls)01: 1897 Value of exports 811,811,431 .Receipts from all sources 271,531.29 Expenses o£ collection 83,710.98

IF Mr. James L. Norris, the District of Columbia member of the Democratic national committee knows what he is talking about, Mr. Bryan has lost his hold upon that committee, although he had been generally supposed to thoroughly dominate a majority of its members, as well as upon the Ohio Democracy. Mr. Norris declares very positively that he has received letters from a majority of the members of the Democratic national committee endorsing the action of the Ohio convention in throwing Bryanism overboard. That declaration ought to furnish Mr. Bryan with material for a little serious Election, because, if it be true, it means that he has been deposed as the Democratic leader.

MB. WILLIAM VAUGHN, chairman of the Alabama Republican state committee, said: "It looks as though the Republicans in the constitutional convention of Alabama might have a deciding vote, although they are only 15 or 20 out of 155 delegates. It is already evident that the Democrats are badly divided among themselves. On the suffrage plan they have presented two different reports, and the best Democrats in the convention and of the state are against the 'grandfather' clause. Senator Pettus has declared that its adoption wouid be unwise, and Senator Morgan has said quite as much. Then there is perplexity about the payment of the poll tax as a prerequisite* for voting. One uf the Democratic members of congress ha9 investigated and found that the negroes in the black beit pay 14,000 poll taxes where the whites only pay 0,000. To be sure, the negroes are largely in the majority there, but the Democrats are net certain that the poll tax provision will give them any great aid in

suppressing

the negro vote. The convention will probably be in session un'.il

FREE TRADE FOR PORTO TilCO.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat: On Thursday next, the thi'-d anniversary of the landing of American troops in Porto Rico, the President will issue a proclamation declaring free trade between the United States and Porto Rico. This progress is quite as rapid as could have been expected. Under the Furaker act the inhabitants of Porto Rico have enjoyed decided trade advantages, the rate at which duties on sugar were fixed operating as a bounty to planters in that island. These planters had allowed their property to run down, but are now active and hopeful. Much new capital has been put into the business by Americans, who have carried with them the latest machinery and processes. European capitalists also have been investing in Porto Rican sugar lands. The President's proclamation will place the Porto Rican planters

considerably in advance of the Cuban sugar raisers. The latter must depend upon reciprocity, which, at best, is but prospective.

Future progress in Porto Rico may be judged by that in Hawaii. In 1871 this country sold to Hawaii goods valued at $1,000,000. Our sales to the island this year will reach $20,000,000. Since the reciprocity treaty of 1876 with Hawaii, then a kingdom, the output of Hawaiian sugar has increased 2000 per cent. Porto Rico's chief productions are sugar, coffee, and tobacco, all wanted in the United States at good prices. It may be assumed that American refineries will have in Hawaii, Porto Rico, and Cuba the practical control of the raw materials in cane sugar, giving the United States a position in this article it has never had before. Sugar lands will also be more extensively sought by investors. Free trade andj confidence in stable conditions will be a great and immediate boon to Porto Rico.

HOW TO TREAT A MAN.

From an exchange we clip a clever bit of satire, which we earnestly commend for the perusal and consideration of all our readers. It was written by a horse and entitled "How to Treat a Man." «It is as follows: "When a man drops from sheer exhaustion or illness, promptly seize an 6nd-board or & cart stake and pound him on the head or on the ribs. If this does not recuperate him, kick him violently. This treatment will restore him if persistently administered. "If a man finds his load too heavy and feels that it will seriously strain him to proceed, kick off a fence board, knock, him down and hammer him thoroughly with it. This will give renewed energy, and he will make no more fuss. But do not on any account reduce the load. That would look too much like common sense, or humanity, and he will be likely to 'balk' again when overloaded. "Ply the whip frequently on a man who is at work. No matter if he is doing his best, hit him often, on general principles, lest he take some comfort. If his load is not heavy, oblige him to go faster to make up for it. Work, starve and abuse nim enough to reduce man's average life one-half as is done with horses. "Fasten your man's head in an unnatural position, with his eyes up towards the sun. This will give him a 'fine appearance' and 'prevent stumbling.' Of course he will not be able to do much work in this fix, but it makes him wretched, and 'it's stylish!' "Make your man 'mind or kill him,' whether he understands what you want or not. If he don't understand, clubbing will improve his intellect. Don't manifest any patience or sense, for that ruins your authority. The more wretched you can make your man the better. "If a man refuses to drink when you offer him water, don't give him any water for two days. That will 'teach him' to be thirsty at any time you choose to water him. He should learn to do without water. "In winter, hang "a blanket on hi9 back, with his head and limbs exposed, same as with clipped horses. Men thus treated are 'much healthier,' because 'it's the style!' "When your fman is frightened, do not speak to him lest it soothe and assure him, but saw his mouth violently and lash him severely. Nothing allays fright or nervousness like abuse. "If not convenient to feed your man at noon, let him go hungry and by active use of the whip secure as much work as food would do. Of coursc this wears him out fast, but men are cheap now, and 'feed costs money.' "Put tight shoes on your man and keep them there until he is lame from corns. This will make him thoroughly miserable.

When you hire a man get all you can out of him, and don't be hampered by huraane sentiment. Nobility consists not of wisdom and kindness, but in manfully overriding the rights and feelings of all-other beings. I am sure these rules are correct, for I learned them whenta colt from mv master, and don't he know what's what? And does not man 'do as he would be done by?'

The Indiana Census.

The total population- of Indiana as given by the census is 2,516 402, of whom 1.285.404 are males and 1,231,058 are females 2*374,341 native and 142,121 foreign born. Indiana has 57,505 negroes, 207 Chinese, 5 Japanese, and 243 Indians taxed. Iowa has 12,693 negroe?, 104 Chinese, 7 Japanese and 382 Indians taxed. Given by percentages in Indiana, 51 1 per cent of the population are male^, and in Iowa 51 8 percent. In Indiana 4 per cent, of the population is native born and 5.6 per cent, foreign born.

May Discharge Entire Crew.

Danville Comm-rctal: The accident at Tile Siding a few days ago, in which John Mathers was killed, was one of the worst the & E. has had in years. It will probably mean the discharge of the entire crew .of train 92, as while it is alleged that McCauley failed to do his duty and follow the passing track clear out to the switch, the railroad will assume that it was the duty of all the crew to know that everything was all right.

Battle Ground Camp Meeting.

Lafayette Journal: The twentieth century meeting of the Battle Ground camp meeting association opened Thursday. Rev. D. Tillotson, of Lebanon, will have charge of the evangelistic work during the meetings, and the first service was held in the Tabernacle last evening at 7:30 o'clock. Friday will be observed as Sunday school day, and the programme will be in charge of the Tippecanoe county Sunday school union. The ministers of the northwest Indiana M. E. conference will have charge of the services throughout thfe camp meeting, and several special days have been arranged. The cottages on the camp ground are being thrown open to entertain the people who own them or who have leased them, and the camp ground has assumed a lively appearance.

The Cook Wins Out.

A special from Linden says: "Chas. Aiken, operating the Hotel Linden for six months, has gone away, leaving a number of creditors his indebtedness, it is alleged, aggregating several hundred dollars. Aiken was formerly of Owensboro, Ky., and he came here to work in the cellulose factory. "After being here some time he leased the hotel building, bought the furnishings on the installment plan, and borrowed money with which to start his bar, giving his individual notes, which are still unpaid. He also pressed his credit with business men. Through inadvertence his trunk was left at the depot, and it was seized by the hotel cook for arrearages in wages."

A Whopper.

Ol Gill and Dan Pickett went out on the creek Tnesday night after frogs. While wading in the weeds near the shore they heard a heavy swishing in the water. "Muskrat," says Dan. "No muskrat could make that noise," replied Ol, and thereupon he went to see what it was. It turned out to be an immense carp, and Ol secured it after some trouble by laying flat down on top of it. The carp was two feet and five inches long, nineteen inches in circumference, and weighed twelve and a quarter pounds. The two men had carp for breakfast and both pronounce it as fine as any bass they ever tasted.
