AN armed neutrality still exists in the relations between Senator "Billy" Mason and Spain. Spain has her army and navy and guns, but "Billy" has his mouth.

WE continue to spend millions of dol lars preparing for a possible war with some foreign country, while mobs of white men in the south continue to burn inoffensive citizens because they are so unfortunate as to be black, and to hold public offices.

THAT'S a novel use that hypnotism is to be put to in a state industrial institution in Colorado. It is proposed to hypuotize the incorrisjibles, and while they are in that state suggestions will be made to them that may influence them towards leading better lives. If the system proves successful there it will not be long until we will have a state hypnotist, with deputies in every county, to reform criminals by the use of this so-called science.

TIIAT a man is brilliant it does not follow always that he is right. Indiana's most brilliant congressman, so far as brilliancy is concerned, Henry U. Johnson, of Richmond, took a great deal of time on Tuesday, which is supposed to be a national holiday, to register his opposition to the annexation of Hawaii. Mr. Johnson is credited with being able to use more words per minute than any other member of the present House of Representatives, but when he talks in that strain he represents only Henry U. Johnson, and not the people of the district he is supposed to represent.

GOVKRNOB MOUNT is displaying commendable force of character in his efforts to run down and punish the offenders who were responsible for the wholesale lynching of prisoners at Versailles a few months ago, and public sentiment will uphold him in his efforts. No matter how desperate were the characters hanged, their guilt had not been established at the time, and they were entitled to the trial guaranteed them by the law. Wholesome pun ishment of these lynchers would have its effect as a warning to those who feel that justice can only be rendered in the court of Judge Lynch. Ho is justified in his efforts, and it is to bi hoped that they will result in the punishment of those who were parties to this unjustifiable wholesale murder.

TUB sensational correspondents already have us at war with Spaiu, but the conservatism of the president and congress in the present critical juncture will prevent war unless a clear and justifiable cause is given us. If it should come the government is prepared for it, and our army and navy and national defenses will not be found in the pitiable condition they were \vhen the storm of the early 60's broke. The man whose cause is just is thrice armed, and if war with Spain should come it will bo her fault, not ours. And then Uncle Sam won't do a thing to the Spanish murderers who have made a waste of the fairest and most productive island in the world, and aro just as cowardly, and cruel, and murderous to-day as were their forefathers when they helped the inquisition centuries ago. If war ever does come with Spain it will probably not be settled in a day or two, but when it is ended the map makers of Europe will have a new job on their hands. There will be no Spanish monarchy.

ONK of the crying evils of the day, and that is as much accountable for the feeling of unrest that manifests itself, is that of unjust and unequal taxation, taxes levied for the conduct of municipalities and states.. One does not have to go very deeply into an investigation of the subject to learn that the richest citizens do not pay taxes as nearly in proportion to their worth as do men of little means. It an evil that demands a remedy. Ex-President Harrison, in his speech at a Washington Day celebration at Chicago Tuesday night dwelt a great length on this subject, and in the most able manner. He professes to believe that it is not impossible to stir the consciences of our people, so to stimulate the independence and courage of our assessors and courts and prosecutors, as to secure fairly general enforcement of the personal property tax, under which most of the inequalities and unjustness occur. He thinks that we have too much treated the matter of a man's tax return as a personal matter and have put his transactions with the state on, much the same level with his transactions with his bank, which is not the true basis. Each citixen has a personal interest, a pecuniary interest, in the tax return of his neighbor. We are member* of a great partnership he says and it is the right of each to know what every other member is contributing to the part nership, and what he is taking from it. It is not a priYate affair it is a public concern of the first importance. After suggesting that the grand jury should be charged with the investigation and Indictment of thoee guilty of fraudulent returns, and if there are inequalities in the law, they must be remedied by legislation and not by the usurpation of the Individual he makes in closing the most potent suggestion that the men of wealth themselves lead to this needed reform.

SMSS

He says: "It is not within the purpose of this address to propose in detail the needed reforms in our tax laws, but r.ither to emphasize the need and to suggest that our men of wealth and the managers of our great corporations should themselves come forward and take the lead in these reforms that they should not only show willingness, but a zeal, to bear their full proportionate share of all public burdens. If they do not, the sense of injury is so strong that ways will be found to exact more than is equal. To do justice is the best safeguard against injustice."

ITdoesn't take much war talk to hiring out some very silly stories, but there are few as silly as the one that Spain is endeavoring to form a federation with the Latin-American republics on this continent to oppose the encroachments of the United States that they imagine will follow the building of the Panama or Nicaraugua canal. Those republics spent too many dollars and lost too many lives in getting away from Spain to ever enter again into an offensive alliance with her against a sister republic. Spain, with her customary Castillian pride, refused to acknowledge the independence of her former provinces for more than thirty years after they had attained it, and that is something that is not likely to be forgotten. The feeling in the republics towards Spain is shown by a manifestation in the City of Mexico this week, and grows out of the sentiment there in favor of the success of the Cuban revolution. A party of masqueraders, dressed as Spaniards, and singing Spanish songs, were driven off the streets by Mexicans shouting for Cuba. Such people are not lively to enter into an offensive alliance with Spain against the United States.

STATISTICS are not as dry reading as they sometimes seem, particularly when calculated to show the progress we are making towards prosperity, and showing the advancement we have made since the war. A recent statistical abstract issued by the government for the year 1897 contains some very interesting statements regarding the nation's present condition. In this work the population of the United States is given as 72,807,000. Thirty years ago, in 1867, the population was 32,211,dtK), just about one-half what it is now. We are increasing at the rate of 1,500,000 a year. The pensions cost now $1.94 per capita yearly. That is slightly less than the cost for any year since 1891. The pension list is growing, but not quite as fast as the population. The expenditures of the government are now $5.02 per person. The money in the country is $34.25 per capita. That is more than the per capita of any but six years in the thirty past. It is $1.'87 more than it was in 1896. The largest amount of money in the country for any year since the war was $36.21, in 1892. The public debt is now $13.63 for each one of the population. In 1867 it was $69.26. We now use of the products of other countries $10.84 worth in a year. In 1867 the consumption of foreign goods was $10.44 per person. There has been but little variation. The per capita of products of other nations consumed has been below $10 only five times in thirty years and above $15 per capita but once. We buy of other nations $10.84 worth and sell to them $14.17 worth. The average resident of the United States consumed in 1897 these amounts: 18.46 pounds of ootton, 3.8S bushels of wheat, 28.91 bushels of corn, 64.5 pounds of sugar (the greatest in the history of the country save one year), 9.95 pounds of coffee, 1.55\gounds of tea, 1.01 gallons of whisky, 14.69 gallons of beer. The per capita consumption of whisky is less than it has been for thirty years, while less beer was consumed last year than for six years. The tariff is not such a dreadful tax, according to this report, for the duties now collected are only $2.43 per capita. In 1867 they amounted to $4.65. The progress of the country is shown in its population and in its exports. In 1867 the United States sold of its products $7.73 worth per capita, and in 1897 $14.17. There have been only six years in the thirty during which the per capita of exports reached $14. Only in 1892 has the export per capita been greater than that of 1897 since 1883. These figures demonstrate that while we may not be enjoying any particular boom, we are getting under mighty good headway, and once fairly started our momentum will be suoh that we will be easily carried past the "dead center" of the hard times that have been harassing us for the past few years.

The Equitable Life.

The Statement of the Equitable Life Assurance Society, published to-day, is noteworthy for the extraordinary increase in the Assets,—over twenty millions of dollars in a single year. The Surplus, although millions of dollars are paid out of it each year to those whose policies become entitled to it, has now increased to over $50,000,000 a fact that gives great significance to the guarantees of the Society. This Surplus is ascertained by the New York Insurance Department on the standard which assumes that the Company will earn 4 per cent, on its Assets throughout the future, but the advantage of the Equitable is that on the more exacting assumption that the prevailing rate of interest will be as low as 3 per cent., it still has a Surplus of over $29,000,000. In this particular of strength the Equitable teems to be unique. The Income was $4&,~ 572.380.53 the Assets amount to $238,876,30&(M, and total amount of assurance in force is over $051,000,000!,Sp

THE OLD SCHOOLHOUSE. J,

The scboolhouse waits beside the road, But dosed are ail Its crumbling shutters, And in its yard, by breezes sowed,

The thistle and the ragweed flutters.

And high above the blackboard gray, Within convenient musty niches, Are hidden from the light of day

A bunch of ancient birchen switches.

The spider spins his fragile web Across the grimy window glasses, While day by day the slow weeks ebb,

And week by week the dull year passes.

Where now aro those who gathered once To taste the fruit of knowledge brought them Where now the scholar pud the dunce,

And where the red lipped maid who taught them?

Why, as they lived be sure they died, Whatever else time's passing gave them, Forgotten by all else beside,

Unless, indeed, my song shall save them.

The mice along the rafters squeak Or gnaw the leaves of some old primer, And loose hung clapboards rasp and creak,

While fades the twilight dim and dimmer.

And so it stands from year to year, Deserted, reminiscent mostly, And, what with all that lingers near,

Sadder than death and quite as ghostly. —Ernest McGaffey in Woman's Home Companion.

A CALIFORNIA FEUD.

It had lasted:for the seven years during which tho Garrys and the Slades had lived and raised oranges, strawberries and raspberries on adjoining farms. The Garrys bad ten acres, the Slades had three. The Garrys had been laying by a little money each year and improving their property. The Slades bad run behind a trifle more each year. Their little square frame house had not been repainted or repaiied since they bought it and their outbuildings were half ruinous. The Garrys could afford to hire Mexicans to holp turn the water on the trees when tho monthly irrigating day came. The Slades had to depend on their own family—mother and father, eight children and an uncle who was dying of consumption. These 11 people lived the year round in a seven roomed house, and at harvest time or when the precious two or three "miners' inches" of water had been bought and must be served, they all turned out into the fields.

Tho Garrys and the Slades quarreled about the etornal question, which embitters the life of the Californian farmer, whioh makes deadly enemies of people who live next door to one another, simply by reason of that proximity, and sets every man's tongue and hand against his neighbor—the question of water rights. The Slades attributed tho undue prosperity of the Garrys to the fact that they got more than their share of the water. The Garrys considered it part of the general cussedness of the Slades that they stole water whenever they got a chance. Criminations and recriminations flew constantly back and forth across the zanja whioh separated the two places, and suspioion regularly became wrought to frenzy as the middle of the month came round. Garry, who was a hot blooded Irishman, swore fearful oaths that if he once caught any of them at it he'd blow them off the earth. He placed his neighbors on the level of the Chinese coolies whose vast strawberry fields stretched beyond him to the east and who would lie all night in the ditches, waiting for a dhnnce to slip agate up an inoh or so when the zanchero had passed on his round.

Garry posted up a hand written placard on his tankhouse, offering $5 reward for the capture of any Slado caught where he should not bo. Ho could not keep it,there however, for three times some one slipped at night through the orohard, tore half the card off and covered the other half with opprobrious remarks concerning the Garrys' ancestry.

No one had the least doubtWto the author of these reflections, for Minta, the 18-year-old daughter of the Slades, was known to be the only one of the family who could write two words together. Garry threatened before his men to horsewhip her if he caught her on his property, and, hearing this, Minta sharpened a kitchen knife on the grindstone in the riokety woodshed and carried it in the pocket of her dross—when she had a pocket —or stucK. it.in .hor belt—when she wore a

She was small, wiry, restless oreature, with light hair, bleached almost white by the sun, always stringing into her eyes, face and bands tanned copper brown and a 6ly, bright, rodent look. She seemed to concentrate in herself all the energy, all the vitality, which might have been distributed among the ten other members of her shiftless Virginian family. She was always abroad in the fields working like a man when she chose «r playing boyish pranks. She wore generally an old skirt and a man's coat and went barefoot and hatless. She used to climb after birds' nos »into the tops of the tallest eucalyptus trees and cling there to be tossed about by the wind. She might be seen very often walking the ridgepole of the Slade mansion, balancing herself with shrieks of delight, and then she would jump down into tho green spray of the great pepper tree that grew back of the house. Her father used to smile when he saw or hoard of these performances.

Girls will be girls," be would say indulgently, "and ef they want to be boys, why, so much the better for the ranch. We need boys, heaven knows. And Minta's the only one of y' all that does a day's work."

Minta helped prune the orange trees, tearing her clothes and sometimes her brown, calloused hands on the needlelike thorns. When it came to picking berries, she was cheerfully admitted by all the other Slades to be equal to any two of them. She made desperate war on the gophers, which are the pest of the orchards, used to visit her traps night and morning, dragging the struggling, chattering animals out cf their biirtows, to smash their heads with a stick. Sometimes she held them for a few moments to laugh at the queer faces and noises they made, or put her finger in their mouths and laughed still more when the sharp teeth drew blood.

When, once a month, the xancbero came at night and unlocked the Slades' water gate, the whole family turned out to work by lantern light till dawn. Then Minta discarded skirts and assumed the garb which she vastly preferred—trousers, a flannel shirt and long rubber boots, and standing deep In the running water she wielded spade or hoe like a man. But the Joy of her life was a boms. To ride with only the bridle and a girth looped for her: foot, throwing herself flat along the back of the brute and shouting into his ear as ho tore at full speed across the mesa—this was a pleasure for which Minta would at any moment cheerfully risk her life. She had been thrown half a hundred time*, team pled on, all but rolled on, and her left arm showed the marks of a hone's

1»J rf IfFil

vicious teeth, but never had she been known to show fear. She had broken in the mustang whioh formed the whole equine stock of the Slades.

The desire of her heart for the last six months of her life was to ride a horse belonging to the Garrys and having a record of one man killed, three broken legs and a fractured skull, which last be had achieved for bis rider by bolting with him rough a low barn door. Minta longed trcely to try her hand on this animal, a

Cfre blue gray with a white rolling eye, and in the end she did ride him and kept her seat, slipping off only when he crouched to roll over on her, and swinging herself up by the pommel of the huge Mexican saddle as he recovered and started to run. George Garry, the eldest son of the man who had offered to horsewhip Minta, stood in the road and applauded. "But mind," be said sharply as she finally got off, flushed with joy and thanked him, "don't let this get to my father's ears."

This, however, is exactly what happened —impossible to say just how. Garry heard that "that Slade girl" had ridden his horse, spurring him till the blood came, and he grew wild with rage. After a violent scene with George he went out to vent his temper on the Moxican hands, for, as it chanced, hie oranges were to be served with water that evening. He drank a glass of whisky before he left the house and carried a flat bottle in his pocket to counteract the chill of tbo water. The men said afterward that he was half out of his senses with drink and anger, and, in fact, he admitted later that he had been drinking through the day.

As usual, be was "looking for trouble," one of them said, from the Slades. When the water was running full head, and he bad exhausted his vocabulary of abuse upon his neighbors, nothing would convince him that they were not at that moment stealing but a personal inspection of their water gate and ditch.

He went stealing along in tho shadow of the trees, out o&tbe red, flickering flare of the lanterns reflected in the shallow flood. A moment later the men whom he had left behind heard a pistol shot, and a hoarse cry from Garry. They dropped their tools, caught up their lanterns and ran. He was standing by the Slades' water gate, the smoking pistol in his hand, looking stdpidly into tho ditch, where something flopped about in the few inches of stolen water. "Look here, boys, I swear I didn't know it was anybody down there!" he cried. "I saw the gate was slid up a little—durn 'em, I knew they were up to it—and then I saw something move, and I thought maybe it was—well, I shot before I had time to think, that's a fact. I never aimed to bit anybody, I swear—only to frighten 'em

Some of the men drew out a limp, quivering, wet figure and laid it on the bank in the light of the lanterns. It was Minta, draggled with mud and breathing hard through her open mouth. Her right hand fell at her side and clutched feebly the handle of a knife. "Hey, what's this?" shouted a voice from over the ditch. The zanchero gave his horse the spur and leaped, with a jingling of silver chains. The superb black brute landed four feet from the body of Minta and stood, glittering in his silver mounted housings, while his master put a series of quick questions. "Don't you be hard on me, senor," pleaded Garry shakily. "I'm goin to give myself up straight. But look there, she'd broken the zanja, and the water's been running in here—you can see. And then, look—she had a knife! Look there, she's got it in her hand. You knoW what these people are."

The Mexicans stood silent, with hardly a glance at one another. The zanchero, after a short pause,'said slowly "Well, of courso, you'll have to take your chances. Still, Mr. Garry, there are certainly some circumstances—provocation—which will probably tell in your fa1 vor. And, as you say, the girl has a knife —yes, freshly sharpened, too—certainly murderous looking!"-—New York Commercial Advertiser. &

W! Good Story of Tom Reed. "This story," says tho Washington Times, "is told in relation to the recent visit of the Hon.

D. Edgar, speaker of

the Canadian bouso of commons, to Speaker Reed. After Mr. Reed had escorted his distinguished guest through all the interesting portions of the house end of the oapitol, on the gallery and house floors, they descended to the basement, explored the different departments and even went down under the terraco. Leaving the terrace they olambered up the stairs, instead of going back to the elevator. 'We will now enter the rotunda,' said the speaker, 'and go from there to the senate, for I want-you to meet Vice President Hobart.' To this the guest acquiesced. Gaining the rotunda, Mr. Edgar expressed a desire to look at the pictures, and in doing so they made a half circle of tho place, and preoccupied with thoughts of entertaining his guest, the speaker did not notice that when they entered the corridor it was the one leading to tbe bouse This fact did not dawn on him until be stood directly in front of tbe main door, which a messenger opened to admit him. Gazing about in amazement, tbe speaker exclaimed, 'Bless me, if this isn't the house,' and, turning with a comical twinklo in his eve to Mr. Edgar, he added: 'It's no use. I've been trying to get to the senate for 20 years, and I fall down eacb time-s'''

"Cbuck him out!"cried some one, but Lord Charles invited tbe man to come up to the platform, and they would listen to what he had to aay. Tbe man struggled forward In great excitement.

The Reward of Valor.

Perhaps tbe most dramatic reward Lord Charles Beresford ever got for valor was a few years ago. One bitter cold night, when his ship was off the Falkland islands, there wasacry of "man overboard." Tbe sentry bad disappeared beneath tbe floating ice. Though clad in heavy garments, Lord Charles instantly seized a coil of rope and leaped into tbe sea. "I •went down and down and down," said Lord Charles when relating the incident, "until I began to think that tbe other egd of the rope was not fastened to anything. At last I grasped my man, the rope became taut, and I began to ascend. Tho ship's corporal helped us both out."
