Thirteen thousand . immigrants from Europe arrived in New York last Fridav aud Saturdav. This breaks all previous two-days records in the history of the immigration business.

Congressman Crumpacker believes that the anti-suffrage cure practiced on the negroes of the south needs investigation as much as the Filipino water cure. Crumpacker 's head is level. Poisoned spears and hidden pits filled with poisoned lance were one of the difficulties experienced by our soldiers in Samar. The observance of ordinary rules of war against such an enemy is a simple impossibility.

In every speech President Palm makes in Cuba he mentions in sincere terras the debt of gratitude the island owes the United States. It is much to his credit that Palma gives so prominent a place to this part of his subject. The president's determination to investigate the charges against the beef trust and other combinations is in keeping with the interests of his party, no matter what position congress may assume. The people are behind the president. They ask justice to all.

When General Grant was President he negotiated a treaty which, if the senate had ratified it, would have annexed Sajito Domingo. If he had succeeded that island would have escaped in the past few years, several revolutions ruinous to its growth and prosperity. At present the capital is in the hands of an insurgent leader.

The American flag will never come down in Alaska, yet when it was put there no one expected Alaska would ever be a state, and no one expects it now. Yet no one talked about imperialism when it was purchased or about imperialism now. when it is known that it will be held with something like a territorial government.

It was only because of sheer necessity that the expedition in Mindano which resulted in a bloody battle was planned. The president did not want war with the Moros, but after these people had murdered American soldiers engaged in friendly explorations in the island and the chiefs had refused to surrender the murderers it became necessary to punish such offences.

The laws of war promulgated by Abraham Lincoln in 18G3 by general order 100 say: "The more vigorously wars are pursued the better it is for humanity. Sharp wars are brief." The new theory is that the more, vigorously hostile insurrections against the United States government are pursued and the milder the efforts to put them down the better it is for humanity.

The elections which took place in all of the cities of the state this week were affected largely by local rather than party issues. Both parties appear to be somewhat shattered in several cities. In Terre Ilaute for in. stance, the democratic paper did not support the democratic candidate for mayor. Neither of the state committees has taken any part in these local canvazses.

The North Manchester Tribune gets a good deal of truth into the following: 'In about two-thirds, of the small sized cities there is more energy wasted by the citizenfe in fightiug each other than ia doing things that will do the town any good. You can decide for yourself on which side of the line you stand, and if you are on the wrong side, quit your foolishness at once, and use your energy where it will amount to something." "

MetsXtr'f Instructions to Voters. The democrats, of the first ward have it in for Metsker, the new editor of the Democrat. Some of them followed his instructions and their votes were not counted. Here is how t "smart" little man told them to vie; "To vote the straight democratic ticket make a cross within the circle enclosing the rooster. In. case ycu vote a split ticket do not make a cross within the circle enclosing the rooster but make a circle with pencil to the left of the name of the canüfdates for whom you desire to vote. If yon will bear this in mind, and follow the directions closely, you may rest secured of your ballot being counted."

America's Financial Supremacy. . New York as the world's financial center is the subject of an article in the current number of "World's Work. Many years ago England notified the nations of the world that a pound sterling, no matter where received, would be worth so many grains in London, and thus London became the banker of the world. Being bilker, it w easy to spread trade. And thus she became the creditor of the world. Realizing that her position as creditor would not be secure unless she developed the sources of the world, she invested her surplus capital in foreign countries and became the world's great lending nation. Now we are on the same path, and New York is overtaking London. Throughout nearly the whole of the nineteenth century until 1890 England was so fortified bv exchange remittance that she led the world. But now English manufactures are having trouble with the tyranny of the trades unions. False economics and stubborn conservatism hamper the use of labor-saving devices. Exchange on London is made to carry all that the traffic will bear, and the merchants of all nations are crving for relief. Meanwhile, England's commerce has stood comparatively still. In 1900 she bought 8500,000,000 more than in 1890, while she sold but $200,000,000 more. The United States, on the contrary, bought only $60.000,000 while she sold an excess of $525,000,000. The overwhelming balance of our trade has been neutralized bv the fact that we are a debtor nation. In 1890 Great Britain bought from the world $l,000,00(-,000 more than she sold, and although it is estimated that her investments in foreign countries

are $10,000,000,000 it is not possible

that the dividends on these added to

the revenues of her carrving trade and commissions will yield $1,000,000,000.

Hence the conclusion is irresistible

that she is paying out her principal. On the other hand for five years we have annually sold $500,000,000 more than we have bought. It is estimated that in 1S9S we had $2,000,000,000 of foreign monev invested in this country. The dividends on this could not begin to amount to $500,000.000 annually. Hence we have unquestionably been liquidating our obligations abroad. It will not take an annual outgo of $500,000,000 many years to equal $2,000,000.000 with interest added and the world will soon owe money to New York as it has heretofore owed it to London. The nations will settle their balances through New York banks. The deposits in the clearing house banks last year in New York 81,000,000,000 in non-clearing house banks about $80,000,000.. In 1890 they were 8400,000,000. The savings banks of the city had 31,131.000,000 which was more than double the amount in 1890. The trust companies had $969,000,000 which was three times the amount they had ten years ago. Granting duplications, it is estimated that there is $2,000,000,000 available for investment the greatest amount of money accumulated in so short a time in the history

of the world. In 1890 both London and New York cleared about $37,000,000,000. lu 1901 London exchanges amounted to $46,000,000,000, but New York's to $79,000,000,000. The building of the isthmian canal will make New York geographically the most important financial point in the world. The probable" future of trade with the far east and our rd vantages by location with reference to it will be an additional help. Meanwhile financiers and statesmen are tending toward an accommodation to our banking methods to be equal to our opportunity. Mrs. Roosevelt's House Cleaning. The news that Mrs. Roosevelt's has begun her spring house cleaning, notes the Milwaukee Sentinel, will touch a sympathetic chord in the hearts of American women. All winter the reports of magnificent banquets . and superb social entertainments have awakened feeling of envy in the hearts of millions of women. Mrs. Roosevelt, attired in brocades and laces, receiving princes and entertaining statesmen, was a person who necessarily seemed aloof from the every day women of the land. But Mrs. Roosevelt counting her broken china, Inspecting her moth eaten rugs and attending to the general renovation of the white house is suddenly put into a ' kinship with hfi American sisters.

A Disagreeable Duty. The Journal has seldom had to perform so dir agreeable a duty as that of announcing that William J. Bryan will not be a candidate for president in 1904. He says he will not be a candidate on any ticket under any circumstances. He will not run as a Populist, a Dem .-Pop., a 16-to-l candidate nor as a Bryanite. He says: Even should the democracy. in 1904 indorse and accept the Kansas City platform as its platform for the battle of 1904, 1 should not be a candidate for the nomination." Republicans have got so used to beating Bryan that they would like to do it afew times more, but as he seems to be tired they will probably not have the pleasure. Perhaps he will change his mind. Indianapolis Journal.

The Flag Will Stay ..There. "The republic has puts' ' its flag in those islands, and the flag will stay there. The flag will stay put!" Such is Theodore Roosevelt's answer to the successors and Imitators of Clement L. Vallandigham in the United States senate and out, and it is a true American answer. If any of our soldiers, in dealing with barbarous Malays, has exceeded the legitimate usages of warfare with savages, he will be punished. The republic's justice and the government's power will take care of him. But the flag will stay there. The Pattersons, the Rawlinses, the Carmacks, the Duboises, and their like assume that the American people care more for low-browed Malav savages than for th.sir own kinsmen. The asassumption is false. Argument with those who make assumption is vain. But the flag will stay there. The president did well to voice the feeling of the nation before a gathering of men who take pride in their descent from those who fought to make this republic. His words are filled with the spirit of '76 and of '61. In every national crisis in the past there have been men who counseled cowardice in the name of humanity and submission in the name of peace. But in every case the American people rose and said. "But the flag will stav there." And the flag did stay there, victorious at Yorktown, triumphant at Appomattox. The flag is in the Philippines. The American people sent it there, and they will keep it there. Inter Ocean.

$1,585.000,000 in Farm 1 roducts. During the fiscal year 1901 foreign countries purchased American farm produce to the value of $952,000,000. This was an iucrease over 1900 of. over $100,000,000, and was $560,000,000 in excess of onr agricultural imports. For the eight months ending February, 1902, we sold abroad farm products to the value of $633,673,000, giving a total for the twenty months ending with February of $,585,673,ooo. Of the exports in 1901. cotton had a value of $315,105,047; bread stuffs, $275,594,618; meat products, $186,106,073: live animals, 852,058,870: dairy products, $9,403.722. The figures for breadstuff's represented the highest value recorded since 1898. Measured in value, the exports of meat products during 1901 were the largest on record, although there was a falling off ia the quantity of hog products. There was a loss of 56,030,988 pounds in bacon, an increase of 20.157,928 pounds in hams, and an increase of 5,443,928 pounds in pickled pork. For the eight months ending Feburary, 1902, there was a falling off of 32,0' 0,000 pounds in our exports of bacon as compared with the increase in value. There was an increase of 22,500,000 pounds in our exports of hams and an increase in value of $1,886,000. There was a falling off of $21,500,000 in the exports of bread stuffs, the marked decrease being in corn. The last reports of the agriculture department show that, notwithstanding the phenomenal increase in our manufactures, the products of the farm are our main source of wealth.

Hart Not After Governorship. Auditor of State W. II. Hart, who has been prominently mentioned as a possible candidate for the nomination for Governor on the republican ticket in two years, says that he is not and will not be a candidate for that office. Hi l Rtatfmpnt wnsrirawn c. hr nn

editorial in an insurance paper, which announced that Auditor Hart had been a candidate for governor before the late convention, but had been defeated, and had consequently lost the renomination for auditor.' Hart wrote to explain that a governor vras not nomiuated at the convention, and that even an angel in Indiana could not get a third nominatson for a state office. Incidentally ha stated his position on the governorship candidacy question. Indiana's Oil Fields. Indiana people are hardly awake to the great possibilities that exist in the state's oil fields, It is 'said. Recent reports show an increased number of wells and an increasing product of oil. Other people are not slow to see the richness of the state's fields, if Indiana people are. An oil man recently said that the proportion of Indiana capital invested in the state's oil fields was comparatively small; that people somehow were more easily attracted by distant propositions; that they were willing to invest in oil or mining enterprises in California, Wyoming or Texas, but could not realize good opportunities close at hand. Indianapolls News. ' ' Over 2,500 Commercial Men. Over 2,500 commercial travelers were welcomed to South Eend Friday, the occasion being the twelfth annual convention of the Travelers' Protective association of 'Indiana.1 The delegations were - accompanied by several bands. The chief event was a banquet and ball at the Oliver hotel, 1,200 guests being present. '

First Sunday Service of the New Rector of St. Thomas' Episcopal Church.

Dean W. S. Howard, who has accepted the call to the Episcopal church of this city, Sunday formally entered upon his ministerial labors. At the morning service the church was well represented and the responsive parts were entered into by the congregation with new zeal and gladness. The choir was exceptionally strong and the music was of a high order. Several changes were noted in the arrangement of the pulpit and chancel and in the placing of the choir. Before proceeding to his sermon the rector took occasion to speak of a number of things pertaining to the conduct of the services and government of the church and indicated plainly the lines upon which he purposed to move. Religion, he said was both a science and an art. As a science it represented a principle that contained the thought and purpose of God In regard to the church which he established on earth, and art was the wise and comprehensive understanding of that principle and carrying it out in the management of the church. He therefore was there to cam out, not his fancy nor personal preference, neither an individual interpretation, but the true meaning and principle of the church. The observance of certain occasions and memorable davs important to the church would be faithfully observed. He stated his position clearly and wished to be fully understood, and asked the prayerful support of the church in his work. The sermon was a practical talk upon the text, "Workers together with God." The real nobilitv of work was traceable back to God. He had set us the example. "My Father worketh hitherto and I work," said Christ. The energy of God was displayed in thej creation. He himself dignified labor. We were long past

the day when tte word "gentlemen"

meant one that did not labor. The

man that accomplishes something is

the man who stands high. Tlie idea

of nobility depends upon the ability

to perform something. We are meas

ured, both on earth and in heaven bv what we accomplish. But we had been

talking about the man side of this

working. There was also a God side. The text speaks of God working with us. God wants to work in us that he

may work out selfishness and ungodli

ness, and he wants to work through

us to extend the Kingdom of God and

for the salvation of souls. And this

work will not be done unless we do it.

Bringing the subject to a practical

application, the new pastor asked his

congregation join with him in taking up all the lines of work that belong to

the church.

The congregation of St, Thomas'

church has evidently been fortunate in its choice of a pastor. They are all

encouraged and their impressions of

their new pastor are highly satisfactory. They feel that they have got one of the strongest men in this diocese. "It took a great deal of faith, " said one of the members, "to reach out as we have done, but our parish, which occupies a central position in the diocese, has never occupied the the place which its position ought to demand; but we believe we have entered upon a larger field of usefulness

than we have ever yet enjoyed." Rev. W. S. Howard was born and reared in Michigan, where his parents still reside. He entered college at Rochester, N. Y.. where he graduated with honors from the University of Rochester in 1891, receiving the degree o B. A. Atter two years of religious work in Detroit Mr. Howard entered a divinity school in Chicago. He graduated from the Western Theological seminary in Chicago in 1896 and was ordained both deacon and priest by Bishop McLaren and was made rector of the Church of Atonement the same year. This position he resigned to enter the work of the Associate Mission, Omaha, Neb. This work Mr. noward left two years and a half ago to accept the position of Dean of Trinity Cathedral, Michigan .City, Ind., and he now comes to Plymouth, at the request of Bishop White to assume the rectorship of St. Thomas Church

Lite Governor Matthew. Chief Justice Alton B. Parker, of the New York court of appeals has refused to grant a certificate of reasonable doubt in the case of John Most, of New York, found guilty of having published an article which had a tendency to Inflame the public mind and in consequence of that decision Most must go to prison where he properly belongs. Judge Parker gave that foulmouthed anarchist to understand that the red flag of anarchy, must not be displayed in the state of New York and that the publication of articles inciting to assassination will not be tolerated. It may be stated, by way of parenthesis, that Judge Parker is a democrat and a particular friend of David B. Hill.
