DA great many persons bould find less fault with Unole Sam if they would stop for a moment and think of the faot that Unole Sam has nothing better to work upon but the people themselves, and inasmuch as in those days most people give more time to denouncing hi m for this or that apparent delinquency or tins or that imaginary oase of misconduct —inasmuch as most people give more time to the abuse of him thaa to be helping” him in any way, it is difficult to •ei how he can do muoh better than he does —and it seems to ns that he is doing fairly well, especially when we compare him with John Bull or the t professional spirit of any other nation of people

A revolution haa broken out in Panama, with the purpose of making that state independent of •Columbia. There has been trouble brewing there ever eiDce the Columbia senate rejected the Panama canal treaty with the Doited States. The rejection of the treaty was a high-handed outrage, and done purely for the purpose of holding up this country, and the old Panama Canal Com panv, for more money, than the $10,000,000 which the treaty gave Columbia, and which wfs just $10,000,000, more than they nought to have had.

The proper thing to do will be to land enough mariaee to protect th* Panama railroad, and to itsk a p of the isthmus, huu piooeed to d g the yaual, after pnyiug the French company to* £IO,OOO 000 »preed <bu for the r work already done Columbia shod d be t ild to u bisile for their $lO 0 0.000.

The * renewed activity of the Democrats in Indiana is a thing that Republicans will do ’well to consider. Of course there is no special reason to be alarmed'about it, it is a fact, nevertheless, not~[to be disguised that in the last few Tnonths the Democrats have acquired a confidence in the result of the next campaign in the state that is worth noting. While Indiana has fallen into the', habit ofj going! Republican the last few] elections, yet it is not'a matter to be taken for'granted. Indiana is goingjßepublican in the next campaign if the Republican do their duty, but not otherwise. There are a good many things to think about in connection with this. We waut not only the state ticket, but also the legislature. We must have both and there is just one way to be tore of this, and that is for every K p’iblican to be on the alert, not mer. 1 y next year, but now] and from new on-
