Who foots the Wat Expense? Quay's candidate for governor, William A. Stone, is a patriot. Can didate Stone wants the people to up hold McKinley and the war against Spain. Well, are they not doing it ? and if not, who is ? It requires money to make war on a grand scale and this money can be obtained by taxation only. Is there any war tax ? Yes. Who pays it ? The plain, common people. Don't the brewer pay his share ? No. It is paid over the bar by the beer drinkers. , Don't the rich tobacco firms pay their share ? No. It is paid by the small dealers, smokers, chewers and snuffers. Don't the rich monopoly express companies pay their share ? No. It is paid by the senders of ex press packages. Don't the telegraph companies pay their share ? No. It is paid by the sender of messages. Don't the wealthy bankers pay their share ? No. It is paid by the maker of bank checks. Don't the tea merchants pay their share ? No. It is paid by the drink ers of tea at the rate of 10 cents per pound. Don't the taxes fall upon any of these rich nabobs ? No. A Republican congress, of which William A. Stone is a member, did not pass that kind of a tax bill. Who are under dogs in the war anyhow ? The under dogs are the farmers, small traders, laborers and mechanics, both in Spain and in this country, who foot all the bills and furnish the fighters, while the dons and dudes do all the shouting and get all the glory and the spoils. Don't the dons and dudes pay taxes and fight ? Nit I—Johnstown Democrat.

London, Aug. 16.—The foreign office, It is reported here, though the report ai yet lacks confirmation. Intends to de mand that the Chinese government dis miss Prince LI Hung Chang from pow er on the ground that he Is responsible for the recent antl-Brltlsh attitude ol the Tsung-11-Yemen. The foreign office. It Is also asserted, has had under special consideration the question of seizing the Taku forts, on the Qulf of Pechin. at the mouth of the Pekln river, and the.Clty of Tien-Tain, the port of Pekln, In the event of China holding all until comifctance is aseured. refusing to comply with this demand. Meanwhile the semi-official Journal de St. Petersburg. In to-day's Issue, deprecates the tone of the British press and says: "Russia does not contemplate fresh acquisitions in the Far East. Her only object is to preserve the advan tages recently gained. The Russian government does not desire to Injure the economic Interests of Great Britain any mor than those of any other pow er. LI II UNO CHANG. The controversy between England I and Russia Is over the possession of a new railroad which is being built from I New Chwang to Shouhla-Kwan. At ' New Chwang this line connects with the Manchurian railroad, which in turn connects with the Trans-Siberian rail road. At Shonhai-Kwon connection will be made with Tientsin by the rail road now being built. These various connections make the road the link in the great system which is to unite Siberia with the rich valley which Is the main source of China's wealth* The control of this road is therefore of great commercial import ance, and would also carry with It a strong BtrategJc advantage. Since the beglnhing of the operations looking to the building of the new road Russia and England have been watch ing each other closely, but in all the diplomatic contests thus far England has been worsted, and M. Pavilof, the Russian minister, has succeeded in having his way. His peremptory de mand that English capitalists should not be permitted to control the new road was granted by the Chinese au thorities, and it has been understood from the first that LI Hung Chang has exerted his great .nfluence with hi* government in support of the demands of Russia. SUPPLIES FOR CAMPWIKOFF Th Commissary Department Sending LOIR of Fresh Meat and Good Dread. New York. Adg. 17.—1n order to ex pedite the work of completing Camp Wikoff at Montauk Point the quarter master's department In the Army build ing sent two boat loads of trucks and teams to the Point. Officers of idle quartermaster's de partment were out yesterday engaging trucks wherever they could do so. Fif ty were finally secured, each with four horses and a driver, and were all sent to Caimp Wikoff on a barge and a ferry boat. Colonel Amos S. Kimball, deputy quartermaster general, said yesterday. "The ferry boat and barge will be re tained at Montauk Point for service there. The trucks will be used In un loading and distributing baggage and stores, and In the work of completing the construction of the ea,mp. So far as this department is concerned every thing is progressing rapidly." Reports from the commissary de partment at Camp Wikoff are also fa vorable. Colonel Wells WlllarU assist ant purchasing commissary of subsis tence, when seen in the Army building yesterday, said: "Fresh meat is furnished dally for Camp Wikoff by Nelson Morris & Co., with whom the government has a con tract. The meat Is furnished according to telegraphic statements of the needs of the camp. Major John 8. Duval, chief commissary at the camp, attends to this work. "It takes from 15 to 20 cents per man per day to feed the troops. This sum includes everything In the army ra tions. The fresh bread furnished is as good as I eat myself. It Is taken up every day from Brooklyn. Monday 3,000 loaves were sent and yesterday between 6,000 and 8,000 loaves were sent. "The delicacies at the camp are in cluded In the commissary. department and are sold to the soldiers at cost. "All the storehouses have not been put up. They should have been finish ed last Saturday, and fhey ought to be finished this Saturday." "Has the commissary department de cided to give the men cold tea?" was asked. "We furnish tea," said Colonel Wll lard, "and If the soldiers want to cool It they can do it themselves. We can't go around cooling tea. "The food given the troops at Camp Wikoff is better than that enjoyed by the average laborer, and Is better by far than the rations furnished any ar my in the world." All Quiet Mt Havens.'"' l ' Key West, Fla., Aug. 17.—There is apparently no foundation for the report that there have been special disturb ances in Havsaa within the last day or two. According to the latest advices fro id reliable sources the olty Is very tran ltl ' ■ _j THE OOLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. SITUATION IN CUBA 'Cbb.n Will Abide by Anyihluf the Hulled States Sajra New York, Aup. 17.— T. K!rala i"al ma. president of the Cuban .'urita, Is it Washington, and Mr. H. fi. Rubens counsel to the Junta, Is also out ol town. Few of the members eared tc talk on the reported agreement to dis band the Cuban army and of the ap pearance of agitators unfavorable tc America In Santiago. One of the mem bers said, however: ~ "1 have not heard of the reported ap pearance In Santiago of agitators whe seek to stir up the Cubans against the United States; but If such have made their appearance I do not think thsll talk will amount to much. There have always been dissatisfied people whe desire to further their own ends or to change existing conditions The Cuban government hoe experienced this klnJ of thing before, and even the presenl form of government has been opposed by certain agltatora These things art to be expected, for the man or party who attempts to do good for a people or advance the cause of humanity will always be opposed by hoodlums. "These breathers of sedition may have made their appearance In Santia go now that peace has been declared, but they will neither command respect nor meet with much attention. They are of the game class as the rabid po litical orator, who sometimes makes his appearance In this country around election time. Our government Is pled ged to co-operate wiKh the United States In securing a stable government, as they were in defeating the armies of Spain and they will do all In their power to fulfill their pledges, believing that this country will be, as It has ever been, the champion of the oppressed and a lover of Jurtice, and that all Its pledges to the people of Cuba will ba fulfilled. "We have said before that Cubans will do all In their power to assist the United States in the settlement of all future Cuban questions, and I repeat that they will still do so. Yet If an In flammatory clique of agitators, who de sire to stir up the people at this time, have come on the scene, th'-y will re ceive neither the attention of the better classes nor t£e favor of the majority of the masse*, and they will meet with severe treatment at the hands of the Cuban government. "The report that the Cuban army will attnek Santiago when the United States garrison is weakened there is absurd. The Cuban army Is undei brave and faithful officers, who have been fighting for the future prosperity of the island and the *ndopendence if the people. They are under orders to assist Che American general: they have done so and will continue to co-operate with the Americans. The Cuban gov ernment has accepted the armistice, anil I know nothing of the reported dlsbandment of the Cuban army. Mr. Palms is in Washington, but I do not know his mission there." WHEELER LEAVES CAMP. " Fighting Joe" 1m Suddenly Summoned to WoHhlngton. New York, Aug. 17.—General Joseph Wheeler came to down yesterday, en rou*e to Washington, on a sudden order frojn the secretary of war The order was received in Camp Wikoff Monday night, and the general started for this city on the 5.40 o'clock train from Montuuk without getting any break fast. His going caused grea; anguish among the medical men In camp, whose quarantine regulations were smashed to general wreck by the order from Secretary Alger. It called merely for General Wheeler's Immediate presence In Washington. In the camp the ru mor spread that General Wheeler was to be one of the peaae commissioners not yet appointed, and was hailed wltli great enthusiasm. If It Is so, the ap pointment will be accepted by the army as a most happy recognition of the ser vice of the brave volunteers, whom the old general with the Iron will and un bending spirit weU typifies. The train that carried the general ran off a switch at Amagansett and it took half an hour to get It back again. General Wheeler went out to the train men and watched them work, dropping a word of advice where It would be of use. The rest of the way to the city he was the object of much attention, being promptly recognized by the pas sengers. In the depot at Long Island City and on the ferry boat the work ingmen came up, brushed their hands clean on their aprons and asked the privilege of shaking hands with the old hero, which was readily granted. When he got Into a Thirty-fourth street car newsboys hung on behind and shouted for "General Joe" and there was an In formal levee. The general went to the Hotel Wal i dorf to meet his children, to whom he had telegraphed his coming. He left last evening for Washington New Cup Defender. Bristol, R. 1., Aug. 17.—Oapt. - Nat Herreshoff refuser to discuss the mat ter of a cup defender to meet the chal lenge from across the water In a con test for the America's cup, saying noth ing has been settled. A man well known In shipping circles who visited the Herreshoff works on Monday, claims to have seen the plans and model of the boat to be built for the great race. 'They are for a boat very much after the style of the 1596 defender. The lines of the new craft are finer than those of the Defender, and show a hull cut away a little more In the foro foot and a little broader of beam. But she will be a keel boat and of a form very familiar to those acquainted with the last American cup races. Killed HIM Wife and Himself ' San Franelsoo, Cal., Aug. 17.— R. J. Corbett, father of James J. Corbett, the heavyweight pugilist, yesterday morning shot and killed his wife and then turned the weapon upon himself with fatal effect. It Is believed that the murderer was demented. He had been in extremely poor health for some time. Death was Instantaneous In both cases. I The shooting occurred at the resi dence of the Corbett family, 520 Hayes street. i 1 ] bin), Blanco Ordered to Stay ' Madrid, Aug.

The Home Paper- Said an eminent divine : "Your home paper tells you when to go to church, to county court and probate court and when to send your children to school. It tells you who is mar ried and who is dead, who is sick, who is bom, and many other things you would like to know. It calls at tention to the public enterprises and advocates the best of schools, and laws in town. It records the marriage of your daughter, the death of your son and the illness of your wife free of charge. It sets forth the advantages and attractions of your town and in [ vites immigration, and is first to wel come newcomers. Yet in spite of all these and numerous other benefits, some people say home papers are not half as good as city papers, that they have no interest in their business or success. The home papers are like the home church—too often neglected by those who are benefitted thfe most. Weather Tor August. Rev. Hicks Says There Will Be Storms, Cooler Winas, etc. Rev. Hicks, in "Words and Works," predicts that summer heat and storms will prevail in the west and east the forepart of August. He also states that the autumnal equinox will be a factor in weather and storms during the last half of August, the period be ing ushered in by excessively warm weather. The 12 th will be the first period for the east for perceptible high temperature and storms, followed by cooler winds and fair weather. New moon on the 17th will as usual cause a change. A storm period will pass over the country from the 20th to the 24th. We should look for many storms of wind, thunder and rain. At this period the main centers of severe disturbance will be coast towns, cities and the gulf regions. The 27th-29th will be the next storm period, accom panied by much warm weather. A Mercury equinox is in force the clos ing days of Aug. Moon is at perigee on the equater on the 31st. Rev. Hicks concludes his August forcast as follows : We firmly adhere to the belief that from the last half of July through August and September, heat and general dryness will be the rule especially in sections to the west and north, and admonish our readers so watch for them.
