Whew ! That was a chilly blast
from the Iowa House of Repre-
sentatives. But the delegation
in Congress turns up its coat col-
lars and says that it doesn't mind
it a little bit.
The Loud bill has been defeat-
ed. Now let Mr. \Loud devise
some plan to reform railway rates
for carrying the mails and he will
be surprised to Gnd how enthusi-
astically it is received.
There seems to be a misunder-
standing somewhere. We were
under the impression that it was
the duty of the Supreme Court
and not of the Senate to deter-
mine the extent of the constitu-
tion.
Poor Beveridge. He has ex-
perienced the "Mailed Fist" of
Mr. Hanna and the other leaders.
It was only what might have been
expected. He is a bright boy,
but he is too young to monkey
with the old fellows as he has
been doing.
Ms. Foss, of Illinois, chairman
of the House Committee on Na-
val Affairs, has prepared a naval
appropriation bill which is $18,-
000,000 in excess of any ever pre-
pared before. Mr. Boutelle of
Maine bad better come back and
take charge of his committee once
more. He may have been delir-
ious, but he was never so delir-
ious as that.
The army budget for last year
reached a total of $118,000,000,
exceeding the appropriation by
<38,000,000. The appropriation
for this year is $112,000,000,
which is $18,000,000 less than the
estimates, and it is believed that
the final cost will reach a total of
$140,000,000. Contrasted with
the ante-MoKinley figures, rang-
ing from $28,000,000 to $25,000,-
000 for the annual cost of the
«rmy, these figures are some*
What startling. ^
Special Notice: "All patent*
look alike" to the inventor who
has made hie first invention and
looks forward, with visions of un-
told wealth, to the blue ribbon
and red seal of the patent docu-
ment. It is only when he begins
to "exploit" his patented inven-
tion that he learns that there is
just as much difference between
patents as between any other
species of property — that the
"claim" ie the life of the patent,
and by its construction the patent
ttast stand or fall; become valu-
able or valueless. "Patents for
Protection" is the cardinal prin-
cipie of the business of E. G.

Raised to Bemove Chilton from the United
State* Senate.
Washington, March 26.—"It is
true that C. P. Huntington and
the six transcontinental railroads
are trying to prevent my return
to the United States Senate.
Huntington is also after the seat
of Senator Chilton of Texas."
This statement was made to-
day by Senator John T. Morgan,
the foremost promoter of the con-
struction of the Nicaragua Canal.
It appears from the tenor of the
above dispatch that Joe Bailey is
to be backed in his race against
Chilton for the 8enate by Mr.
Huntington, the greatest trust-
promoter this country has ever
known. Large sums of money
are being spent in Alabama by
this syndicate to defeat Senator
Morgan for re-election, and a
similar course may be resorted
to in Texas to defeat Senator
Chilton simply because he is op-
posing monopolistic trust opera-
tions and favors the construction
of the Nicaragua, Canal both of
which measures are believed to be
detrimental to Mr. Huntington,
but highly beneficial to the gen-
eral public.
TWO MSH.
Many a man has made a for-
tune through judicious advertis-
ing. Take two men starting in
business at the same time. One
uses all the money he makes in
living well and sometimes even
extravagantly. The other invests
all the surplus oash that he can
l«y his hands on in advertising
here, there, everywhere that he
thinks will attract publio notice.
What is the result? The man
who advertises has crowds flock-
ing to his shop to see the beauties
Of the advertised goods, and as
the public begin to run so will
they oontinue from sheer force of
habit. The first shop-keeper will
in the meantime be sitting, un-
thought of and uncared for,
aghast at the orowds which daily
throng the counters of his com-
petitor and bitterly bewailing the
bad luck which has followed bis
own venture into trade. Yet he
has no one to blame for it but
himself.—Chauncey M. Depew in
N. Y. Journal.

The average weekly wages of
the men employed in the cotton
mills of Maine are $7.88, of the
women $5.00 and of the children

There are 1,170 paper and pulp
mills in the United States, pro-
ducing annually 1,000,000 tons of

Reliable information from Mi-

ters are plowing up their young
corn and planting the land
in cotton. Next fall they will
sell 4 cent cotton and buy 40 cent
corn.—Austin Tribune.

Hon. Joe Bailey will address
the Austin people at the court
house on April 3. Everybody

After the election he will proba-

Judge Jno. H. Reagan has been
asked to write a history of the
civil war. This he can do and
ought to do. The southern peo-
ple are entitled to, and ought to
have written an impartial history
of that terrible conflict. Judge
Reagan is the proper man to do
this work.—Tyler Courier.

If the new doctrine of the repub-
lican party is true, that the con-
stitution of the United States ap-
plies only to the states within the
union, and that the inhabitants
of our territories and colonies
have absolutely no constitutional
rights except such as congress
may give them by statute, what
is the logical consequence? The
district of Columbia is not in the
United States. The city of Wash-
ington is in the District of Colum-
bia. Hence the capital of the
United States is not in the United
States.—-Albany Argus.

Bailey makes a good ex-parte
case against Chilton, but wait till
you hear the other side of the ar-
gument.—Hallettsville Herald.

Bailey says the difference be-
tween Chilton and himself is raid-
ical. Certainly; we all under-
etand what the radical difference
is. Bailey wants Chilton's seat
in the senate.—Baird 8tar.

The attention of Attorney Gen-
eral Smith is called to the open
and flagrant violation of the anti-
trust law of the state by the in-
surance companies doing busi-
ness in Texas. He could secure
all the evidence he would need
right here in Greenville. These
companies today have a uniform
and effeotive discrimination
agiinst this town in force and are
otherwise violating the law with
impunity.—Greenville Herald.

The Waeo Tribune says:
4'Chilton'8 intellectual qualities
may not be as irridescent as Bai<
ley's, but Chilton's mentality is
strong, well-balanced, matured
and trained. He is capable in a
high degree; he has been faith
ful, he is in line with Democratic
sentiment in this State. We be
lieve he is a safe man, capable of
greater usefulness, and do not
see why heehould be retired sim
ply because Bailey is weary of
the lower and desires to go to the
upper house of oongress. For
those reasons we ehall support Mr
Chilton's candidacy."

of those diseases which come to so
many women. Had she taken your

Naval authorities have arrived
at the conclusion that the Island
of Guam, stratagetically speak-
ing, is of scarcely less importance
than Hawaii, and preparation is
to be immediately begun to make
it one of the most important na-
val stations on the Pacific. The
army transport service has dis-
covered that a whole day can be
saved on the voyage to Manila
bay by re-coaling at Guam and
these ships will stop there regu-
larly as soon as rapid coaling
facilities have been provided.

twisting him »round, he wonldn't
be so easy. Details and fit go a
