A Volunteer's Appetite.
A Nebraska soldier who served faith
fully in the Philippine campaign, never
missing a scrap his regiment was en
gaged in, says an Omaha exchange,
wrote home to his wife: "I see they are
preparing to give us a grand banquet
when we return to Omaha. That's
all right, but I want something- to eat
before the banquet comes off. And I
want it at home. I want it on the table
when I get home, too. What do I want ?
Well, here's the list: Sirloin steak, rare;
hot biscuit and plenty of them, made
by you; flour and milk gravj-, about
three quarts; mashed potatoes, apple
sauce, corn on the cob, 11 ears; string'
beans, macaroni and cheese, peaches
and cream, ice cream. I want you to
pet all these thing-s ready. We have had
plenty to eat since reaching San Fran
cisco, but when things are camp
cooked, they all taste alike. Cook 'em
yourself, and don't think because I've
been away over a year you can ring in
any hired-girl cooking on me. When I
pet through with this bill of fare I'll
be ready to tackle the banquet."
The Ferris Wheel.
The mammoth Ferris wheel will
probably be taken away from Chicago
before many months have passed.
What is to be done with it is still in
doubt; but the company now owning it
is thoroughly convinced it can no long
er be made a paying amusement invest
ment in Chicago, says a local exchange.
Negotiations have been pending for
some time to take it to one of the sea
shore resorts near New York, prefer
ably Coney Island, and it is more than
likely this will be the disposition made
of it. Though the Ferris wheel was
considered one of the wonders of the
world's fair, it has never since appealed
to amusement seekers in this vicinity.
Ferris \\ heel park, an uncommonly
pretty resort, was built around it on
the present site in North Clark street,
and even this failed to attract the pub
lic until a variety performance was in
troduced. Since then the attendance
has been uniformly large, and the man
agement is doubtless convinced that
the park will be equally successful if
the wheel is taken elsewhere.
Overina mountainous country east of
Echo where CO sleek Jerseys walk with
the regularity of clockwork into then
stalls at 4:30 every afternoon, says the
Hartford (Conn.) Times, lives Amri
Stone, who likes raw eggs with their
shells on. Recently, on a bet, in Flute
ville, he swallowed 25 of these eggs.
This eclipsed all his former records.
In his latest test he is said to have swal
lowed the eggs without difficulty lip
to the twentieth. It took him an hour
to get away with the rest. He won $5
by the operation and his friends ex
pected to find him dead the next day.
Stone, however, was up early and out
and cut a cord of wood between day
light and dark, taking along with him
a lunch of more raw eggs, a loaf of
bread and a few slices of raw pork.
It was rumored in the city of Provi
dence awhile ago that the pastor of the
Center church was about to marry a
certain Miss S , a beautiful society
young woman, but belonging to the
Episcopal church. The good people of
the pastor's church talked it over and
tame to the. conclusion that he might
choose more wisely. Finally it was left
to the elders to wait upon and expostu
late With him. They visited him and
expressed to him the feelings of the
church. The pastor listened patiently
till they were through and then laconic
ally remarked: "Gentlemen, there is
more than one Congregational church
in the world; there is but one Miss

A midway, of course, is it feature ol
the national export exposition at Phil
adelphia. It includes an Egyptian the
ater, a Georgia plantation colony and
a large Chinese village. There is also
a trained animal exhibit, whose man
ager gave a unique dinner a few days
ago. Near the end of the feast a bas
ket covered with flowers was placed in
the center of the table. When the top
was removed three fluffy little lion's
cubs, not much larger than cats, sat
up to blink at the guests, and were al
lowed to wander about the table,
Finally, a champagne basket was
opened, and an athletic monkey came
forth to turn handsprings.
NEXT YEAR'S CAMPAIGN.
Bryan Will Leail the llenim'rnls in nn
Attack on Anirrirnn
Integrity.
As soon as the returns of the election
of 1890 came in, with the vast number
of 6,502,025 votes; polled for ISrvan, it
was manifest that though defeated
then he had only to live to be renom
inated by the democratic party in 1900
and that the issue represented by him
in that election would again be fought
out.
It was not merely because Bryan had
received about 1,000,000 more votes
than were cast for Grover Cleveland at
his election four years before that his
renomination was inevitabl if he lived
until the democratic national conven
tion in 1900, but because also lie repre
sented and embodied a spirit which had
taken possesison of the democracy to
the exclusion of any other. He had
been their leader in the hottest and
fiercest campaign of their history, and
had carried them to more radical posi
tions than had ever been fought for by
a great American party. The democ
racy had been inspired to the greater
devotion to him and the politics he rep
resented because of the very bitterness
of the campaign against them. To bor
row a phrase coined for Cleveland, he
is loved because of the enemies he
made.
The aggregate vote for McKinleyand
Bryan in IS9G was 13,607,704, or 2.874.-
078 more than Ihe aggregate for Cleve
land and Harrison in 1892. This great
increase in the number of votes polled
at two successive quadrennial elections
was unexampled in American history.
The increase during the whole period
fiY>m 1870 to 1892 was only 2.414,191, or
nearly half a million less. The gain of
Bryan over Cleveland in 1892 was ex
plained by the circumstance that the
populist vote, which was over a million
in 1892, went to him; it nearly account
ed for the difference. But the increase
in the republican vote since 1892 was
the most remarlyible incident, McKin
ley receiving 7.104,779 to Harrison's
5,176,108, or nearly 2,000,000 more.
That is, the election of 1896 was the
most remarkable in our history; it
brought out the greatest vote propor
tionally, and therefore was the elec
tion in which the interest of the peo
ple was shown the most profoundly.
It can never be forgotten; it left both of
the contending parties in new shape.
The republicans became specifically t Lte
champion of ihe single gold standard
and the democratic party of silver free
coinage. It was too bitter a contest
to be ended by a single election. The
spirit which expressed itself in the
Chicago platform was too radical and
the Bryan campaign kindled by it was
too hot for it to be subdued by a single
defeat. Free silver was fur the first
time the battle cry of the forces of rad
icalism, bent on experiments which in
volved the very reorganization of so
ciety and the destruction of property.
The platform adopted by the Massa
chusetts democrats had reason to pro
nounce the Chicago platform a "politi
cal code written not for one year, but
for all time." It.was distinctively a
new and radical departure.
The renomination of Bryan anil the
renewal of the contest are consequent
ly inevitable, and the indications row
are that he will be nominated by accla
mation next year, and that there will
be no opposition to him which will dare
express itself, however feebly. The
platform he will stand on will be the
Chicago platform, with added planks
which will be more rather than 1 ejs rad
ical than it was originally made, tr'l
the subsequent campaign will repeat
that of 1890 in intensity of feeling and
interest. It is a revolution that Bryan
leads, and in 1900 he will carry the re
pudiation of national obligations and
his assault of 1890 on the financial cred
it of Ihe nation to the further repudia
tion of the moral obligations and the
honorable name and prestige of his
country imposed and won by successful
war. It will be a shameful canvass
against American integrity and patriot
ism; but it will occur.
That is what is before us next year,
and wisdom dictates that every man
Should look calmly at the prospect and
prepare to be counted for or against the
repudiation with which the democratic
party is now inseparably associated.—

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1599.
DELUDED DEMOCRATS.
Nothing I'pnn Which to lln*o Tkel*
Hysterical Declarations
ii n<l thnrcei.
The Atkinsonians are overstating
their case. There is nothing to justify
the hullabaloo they are trying to raise.
The question of lariff reform as orig
inally stated was not a demand for free
trade, nor yet an unqualified denuncia
tion of protection. The specifications
made afforded a good basis for discus*
sion, and some prominent republicans
were inclined to support the proposi
tion, the gist, of which was that tariff
duties, by reason of the growth of the
country and the development of busi
ness, should be rearranged. But this
did not satisfy the extremists. They
assumed leadership, and forthwith be
gan to talk about a Chinese wall, the
reign of robber barons, and generally
lo substitute the extravagances of ihe
stump for the figures and the sober
vocabulary of business.
The country was slow to respond.
Several nat ional campaigns :vcre fought
before the change was voted. Then
came an exposure, the humiliation of
which has never been exceeded in our
politics. The men who had pledged
themselves to destroy protection root
and branch were now forced to take
shelter under that policy. The busi
ness of the country, as they found
was so intimately connected with pro
teetion that ihe destruction of the lat
ter, as promised, would bring about
wholesale bankruptcy. They dared not
keep their pledges, but shuffled and
dodged and cut the schedules in so un
skillful a fashion in a lame effort tr,
cover their retreat that confusion ev
erywhere prevailed. The people turned
them down at the first opportunity, ard
that ended an agitation which had con
tinued unabated for nearly 20 years.
It may be admitted with regard to
our new possessions that they afford
a legitimate topic for discussion. How
shall they be developed? Precisely.
What form of government will be best
for them and best for us? We are re
sponsible for them, and should exert
ourselves to do a good part by them
Men may differ as to these matters
and serve public interests by discuss
ing them. But when an alarm is sound
ed that the country is on the high road
to perdition, and v\tll shortly reach that
destination unless it executes a right
about face, withdraws from its new pos
sessions and snuggles up within its old
borders again, hysteria is permitted tc
take the place of reason.
Just as the free traders, having won
their fitfht by playing upon fears and
prejudices, were exposed and repudi
ated, just so would these shouters about
Caesarism and imperialism fare if it
were possible forthem to win. Noparty
iji office would, dare to surrender the
fruits of our victory over Spain, or even
seriously to temporize with the duties
imposed by national pride and national
development. A campaign cry is one
thing. The responsibility of office is
another thing.—Washington Star.
THE SILVER SCARECROW.
Antl-KxiinnMlonldta Trylnx to Itnlne
the Ilntrnbon of "Im
perialism."
The reported failure of the Bryan
spellbinding tour in Nebraska, the man
ifest indifference of the people of lowa
to the declamatory alarums of Candi
date White and the dull thud with
which McLean's anti-American attack
upon the president's Philippine policy
fell upon the people of Ohio are all sig
nificant straws indicating the direction
of public sentiment on the "expansion"
issue.
It was a most inopportune time to
inaugurate the campaign against "im
perialism" in these states, when the
people of all parties are engaged in gen
erous rivalry for precedence in the pub
lic ceremonies arranged with lavish
elaboration for the reception of the
naval hero who, more than anyone else,
is responsible for the «udden revival
among the people of the sentiment of
expansion—a sentiment that has been
coexistent with our national growth
and progress. It. is a poor time to ask
the people to pull down the flag when
the people are covering with honors un
paralleled the man who raised it in the
Philippines.
But even though Admiral Dewey had
remained in the far Pacific it would not
be possible for I try an, White and Mc-
Lean to persuade the American people
that our determination to honorably
discharge the national obligation im
posed upon us by the victory in Manila
bay is the forerunner of any policy of
"imperialism" on the part of the pres
ent administration. The people are in
telligent enough to know that there is
no "dream of empire" involved in our
efforts to set up law and order in the
Philippines. No man who has person
ally investigated the condition of af
fairs in the Philippines or who has any
accurate knowledge of their people has
yet claimed that the Filipinos are ca
pable of self-government. If the sup
pression of insurrection in thes* is
lands* and (lie establishment of a stable
and humane government under our flag
is "imperialism" then the present ad
ministration should welcome the issue
and the people would sustain it over
whelmingly at the polls.
But there is no such issue before the
American people. The campaign in lowa
is already old enough to demonstrate
that the people will not be stampeded
away from national expansion and na
tional duty by the silver scarecrow, "im
perialism."—Chicago Times-llern id.
cnepublienn interest is on the alert
and will have the hearty aid and ap
proval of every class of a progressive,
patriotic people, who hold principle
above partisanship. There is no doubt
of republican victory in Ohio in Novem
Ver; the vital point is to make it over
whelming. Cincinnati Com

Sun Francisco, Oct. 12. —The Twen

charged soldiers who arrived lieie
Tuesday night on tiie transport Tartar
landed yesterday. When the quaran
tine inspection was finished and the
word was passed among the soldiers
that the vessel would lie docked im
mediately a great hurrah greeted the
announcement and the soldiers com
menced their preparations lor debar
kation. The water lront was black
v\ith people. As the Tartar passed
slowly along the water front the sol
diers were cheered again and again.
Flags were dipped and whistles and
calliopes added to the din.
The march to the l'residio reserva
tion was a continuous ovation. The
streets were thronged with excited
people, all anxious to honor the re
turned heroes. Cheers upon cheers
pased up and down the lines of people.
Cannons were fired at intervals, bells
clanged and whistles and steam calli
opes added their noises to the occa
sion.
(ien. Funston marched with (lov.
Ktan'.ey, of Kansas, and escort. 'I ho
throngs surged around (ien. Funston
and he had great difficulty in making
progress. llounds of cheers greeted
him.
The crowds simply would not let the
soldiers pass in peace. Relatives and
friends broke into the ranks and
marched with the soldiers, some smil
ing and laughing and others crying.
The regimental colors, little the
worse for wear, in spite of the ardu
ous campaign through which they had
passed, called forth tremendous ap
plause whenever they were sighted.
Taking it all ill all the soldiers looked
to be in fair health, but of eoursu
there were some who showed the ef
fects of the severe campaign. Infring
ing up the rear of the regiment were
the hospital wagons, not very heavily
laden with sick.
Gen. Funston, in an interview, said:
'"This is America, you know—and I am
an American. That tells the story
best of our delight in reaching home
cgain. There is nothing like tne
great joy of being back here again,
among people whom we know are our
countrymen and kin. I have only
this to say of the campaign in the
Philippines —everything is being donft
that could be to carry the war to an
early and sueeesful conclusion. r ! he
report that 1 am an anti-expansionist
is ridiculous and not worthy of seri
cus consideration. 1 never intimated
such a thing and have been wrongly
quoted in the matter.
"The people must stop to consider
when they are passing judgments that
there are countless conditions to be
constantly overcome before headway
can be made. I fear that the exact
difficulties of the situation are not ful
ly understood.
"Some mistakes may have been
made, but the campaign has been con
ducted in a most able nner conscien
tious manner and every man ha? done
his best. No grave errors Tiave oc
curred, but it is always easy to look
back and comment upon what has
been done, even though that might
have been accomplished under trying
circumstances."

London, Oct. 11. —The ultimatum of
Transvaal is the absorbing topic of
conversation and the late editions of
the afternoon papers containing the
text of the ultimatum met with a
good sale in the central parts of Lon
don. There was no apparent excite
ment, however, but a general feeling
was expresesd that the Boers had
made a mistake, as their forcing mat
ters would tend to alienate the sym
pathy which might have been extend
ed to them had they thrown the stig
ma of declaring war on England. The
text of the Boer ultimatum was sent
with all speed to Lord Salisbury,
who came to town in the afternoon,
and a dispatch box wns sent to the
Prince of Wales, which is only done
in cases of special urgency.
War preparations by England are
being pushed with the greatest en
j ergv. The Woolwich arsenal lias al-
I ready forwarded to South Africa over
3,000,000 cartridges for rifies and ma
chine guns and the reserves continue
to respond eagerly to the mobilization
proclamation.
The Transvaal ultimatum, which is
signed by F. W. Beitz, secretary ol
state, concludes with the following
four demands:
First —That all points of mutual dif
ference be regulated by friendly re
course to arbitration, or by whatever
amicable way may be agreed upon
by this government and her majesty's
government.
Second That all troops on the bor
ders of this republic shall be instantly
withdrawn.
Third- That all reinforcements of
troops which have* arrived in South
Africa since June 1, IS'Jt), shall be re
moved from South Africa within a
reasonable time, to be agreed noon
with this government, and with the
mutual assurance and guarantee on
the part of this government that no
attack or hostilities against any por
tion of the possessions of the British
government shall be made by this re
public during the further negoti
ations, within a period eif time tei be
subsequently agreed upon between the
governments: and this government
will, on compliance* therewith, be pre
pared to withdraw the armed burgh
ers eif 1 his republic from the- borders.
Fourth —That her majesty's troops
which are now on the high seas shall
not be landeel in any part of South
Africa.
To these demands is appended the
definition of the? time limit for a re
ply: "This government presses for
an immediate and affirmative answer
tei these four questions and earnestly
requests her majesty's government tc
return an answer before eir upon Weel
neselay. October 11, 1899, not later than
i o'clock p. m.
'lt desires further to add that ill
the unexpected event eif an answer not
satisfactory being rcceiveel by it with
in the interval, it will with great re
gret be compelled to regard the action
of her majesty's government as a
forma! declaration of war and will not
hold itself responsible for the conse
quences thereof."

One of the most delightful women in New
York is one who discarded her waist line
years ago. She is built on the order of the
tub, but she has a genial and accommodat
ing disposition and laughs heartily when she
tells this story on herself:
She had been to the Catskills for a few
weeks, staying at cine of those mountain top
houses that it takes you four hours to drive
up to and half an hour to come down from.
She was met at the nearest railway station,
•he and half a dozen others, by a stage that
set oft' up the mountain road. It was hot and
the stout lady had a kind heart. (She pitied
the horses and as the road grew steeper she
volunteered to get out and walk. The driver
helped her down and she trudged along as
far as she could. Then she was helped into
the stage again and at "the next steep grade
she insisted on being helped out. She had
returned to the carriage another time, when
they came to a still steeper stretch of road
way. The stout lady was just too tired to
walk another step.
"Well," she said, "I'm not going to get out
•gain. I'm too tired."
The driver turned to her with a look of
gratitude.
"That's all right," he said. "Set still. I'd
a lot rather haul you thau heft you in and
out so often."
And he "hauled" her to the very steps ol
the hotel. —N. Y. Sun.
