The report of the United States geological survey on the".Mineral lie.sources of the United States'" shows that the gold product of 3000 was worth $79,000,000, tin- silver product $36,000,000, while the value of the copper product was $98,- 000,000. More surprising still is the statement that the value of building stone taken out during the year ex ceeded that of silver, $48,000,000, against $36,000,000, while that of clay products was $"2,000,000 greater than that of gold, being $96,000,000. it is further asserjed tiiat "two-thirds of the output of silver in the United States is obtained as a byproduct from mines which would be operated no matter what the price of silver might be." The superior capacity for work cf j American mechanics has often been ■ noticed and an explanation of it is suggested by J. 11. Schooling in The Fortnightly. lie gives figures which show that while each Frenchman drinks an average of 33.6 gallons of j spirits, beer and wine in a year, and ! each l'riton 33.t! gallons, and each Oer- j man 30.09, the American people aver age but 14.7 gallons. While the aver- j age Frenchman drinks 31.6 gallons of J wine and beer, the Itriton 32.1 and the German 29, the American drinks but | 13.6 gallons, and he drinks but a little j more than half as much distilled spir its as either the Frenchman or the (lerman. No wonder that a temper- ! nnee revival lias been well started in ' Europe. An anti-snitch campaign is going on in Kansas City. A "snitch," according to one of the papers, "is a cheap law yer, very frequently a young lawyer, a man of small practice and precarious income, who is excessively active in drumming up trade. His specialty is the individuals who have suffered a supposed or real injury, and his meth od is to induce such individuals to bring damage suits, or to threaten suits, with the object of extracting money."

Applies to tlie <nni|iiliKii of ISilli anil Not to 'I lull of Four I cur* Later, 'Hie following interesting paragraph appears in a late issue of the Com moner: "An agent reports that one democrat re fused to subscribe for the Commoner be cause he had read in fome pain r that Mr. Bryan had gone over to the gold bugs and was booming Hill for president. If the aforesaid democrat read the Commoner he could not be deceived by sueh absurd ru mors. Those who take this paper know that the editor neither has boomed, Is booming, nor will boom any one for the democratic nomination who was against the party in ISIC or even doubtful." And so the liryanite test of democ racy applies to the campaign of 1896 anil not to that of 1900, says the Wash ington Star. This is important, be cause there are men -some of consid erable prominence—who have been nursing the notion that, by their sup port of Bryan in 1900 they washed away the sin of opposing him in his first race. Their awakening to the real situation will be a little bitter. They may hold a conference and decide that they are being unduly punished— something forbidden by the law of the land. But while Mr. Hill alone is named by Mr. Bryan, lie is not the only man to whom the Bryan decree applies. There are others. Mr. Ilill very well heads the list. He sulked all through the campaign of 1596, and, while be supported Mr. Bryan in 1000, his stumping was done in Virginia, where the republicans had about as much of a chance to win as the democrats had in Maine. He had no heart in the cam paign, but was a democrat merely for regularity's sake. Mr. Watterson is ruled out. It is true he was not in the country during the campaign of 1896, but the influ ence of the newspaper over which lie presides was thrown against Mr. Bry an that year, and Kentucky, for the first time in the state's history, cast all but one of her electoral votes for the republican national ticket. Sub sequently Mr. Watterson returned to the fold, and in 1900 carried his state by a few thousand for Mr. Bryan. But that, according to this latest edict, | does not clear his title sufficiently to | recommend him to Mr. Bryan as a man ! to be boomed for the presidency. And there is Mr. Olney. It lias nl j ways been understood t bat he opposed j Mr. Bryan in 1896. But by 1900 this j accomplished attorney for syndicated | wealth had become alarmed at tlie | growth of the power of syndicates in ; the United States and voted for Mr. ' Bryan. And yet the Bryan rule ex ! eludes him. The Olney boom has never ; been very promising, but there is i something that goes by that name. It j may not survive this frost. Mr. Gorman escapes. He supported | Mr. Bryan in both campaigns, and with the same serene ineffcciutility. Mary land gave her votes in both years to Mr. McKinley. But Mr. I'ryan under j stands Mr. Gorman, and. regularity or no regularity, would not boom him for president under any circum stances. OPPOSITION IN DEFAULT. Democrat* Have No OHior StatoNinan- Mliip Tliaa 111 i 11< 1. I'iu-llrad <*« l Con (ra r i neam. The function of a capable and pa triotic opposition party is of high use and even of necessity. It is to the distinct advantage of the coun try that there should be intelligent and honest criticism of the party? Hi I power. Otherwise that party may not always be held tip to its highest j standard or be faithful to its largest J opportunity. Despising its adver sary, it may grow too secure, and ; err both in the direction of under taking too much and of neglecting too much, says the New York Sun. The democratic party, incapable at i present of injuring the republicans 112 in any direct and legitimate way, may yet bring upon them ultimately some of the consequences of power i unchecked > y a reasonable opposi j lion. Judged by the general tone of \ the democratic speeches on the Pliil j ippine trriff bill, the leaders of the I democratic party have no apprecia tion of the immovable hostility to breaking the integrity of American ; territory, no appreciation of the j services of American soldiers in the | Philippines, no other statesmanship than a blind and pig-headed opposi-j j tion to republican policies. Through | all the splenetic and violent speeches ! of Tillman and Money and Dubois, with their coarse insults and their preposterous whoppers, runs the im potence of a partisanship which lias nothing practical to propose, noth ing even honorable to propose. | There was a democratic party once j that was ready enough to win new territory for the United States and never cowardly enough to wish to give it up. There are plenty of democrats now faithful to the great, traditions of their party who will nut throw away their patriotism simply for the sake of butting ngiiinst the republican party. In the senate itself there are demo crats who don't believe in the let tlie Pliilippines-go-to-the-devil policy. But the speeches of the advocates of the runaway programme seem to represent the slate of mind of the majority of democratic leaders. Not only have they not learned anything since 1900, but, if possible, they have lost something of what, knowledge they retained. They don't, know enough to respect the territorial rights of the United States or the soldiers of the United States. An opposition so led must continue to flounder in the mud. The repub lican party roust depend upon its own members for intelligent criti cism. THE MAN IS WANTING. \ o One in S lull I W Imi «'nn Hntore tin Democracy to Saner Method*. About 40 years ago the democratic party confronted the issues of the civil war. Jt had every opportunity to acquit itself honorably and loyally. But the party turned away from the great Douglas and settled back iu Ilia hope that the war would be a fail lire. Three years later the same party had the opportunity to reconsider itfe disloyalty and disastrous action- to recall the war democrats to their party allegiance and togo before the people, once more as a thoroughly American organization. Vet again it turned its back on the men who would save it, and declared that the war was a fail ure. On this declaration, says the Chicago Inter Ocean, the democratic party was banished by the people from llie white house for 20 years. For 20 years it carried the burden of the declaration that the war was a failure. For 20 years it fought the old tight on one result of the war or another. Then it dropped the issue and was rewarr ed by a temporary restoration to power. Four years ago the democratic party was confronted again with the issues of the war. At first it met them hon orably and loyally. Then, unwarned by t he disasters of 20 years, it wavered and faltered. Finally, on the main question of the war that of annexa tion —it took the old familiar position —the war was a failure. On this issue the party divided and went down in 1900. Vet now the cau cus of democratic senators in Wash ington has gone back—back to the broken idol of a generation since—and decided that the party shall again go before the people on the issue of 1900 —the issue that the results of the war with Spain were evil, and hence that the war was a failure. Among the vivid questions pressing for settlement just now are reciproc- ] ity with Cuba, the construction of the j Nicaragua canal, tariff concessions to ' the Philippines, and the upbuilding of our merchant marine. l!ut, as repre sented by its senators, the democratic party has no time for these. Why heed them? The Philippines are a bur- j den; the war was a failure. Is there really no sane thing left in the democracy of to-day? Must the j party remain without policy and with- j out leadership? Must it goon indefi- ' nitely staking its hopes of success on ! a moan and a protest? Must the I democrats wander in the wilderness again for 20 years, while their so-called leaders croon over a dead past. "It j was a failure—a failure—a failure?" I Every good citizen must hope not The country needs two really great 1 parties. But, then, where is the mar ! to restore the democracy to saner ! methods? ONLY THE REAL FACTS. SeiiNeleMM ('ttcrjincPN of Deniocrntn I iteuardiiik tlif Appointment of Secretary Shaw, The attempt of some newspapers to assign political reasons for the selec tion of (iov. Sliavv to be the successor of Secretary Gage is senseless. Surely, if President Roosevelt had formed the intention to gain some real or fancied political advantage through the tilling of the place to be left va- 1 cant by the resignation of Secretary (lage, that intention would have been discernible in his first choice for the position. But not even the most dili gent seeker after political motives would have been able to find the sem blance of one behind the selection of a man from Massachusetts. And no- | body will readily believe that Presi dent, Roosevelt suddenly took it into i his head to make a political point with ! the filling of this cabinet posit ion, aft er (iov. Crane had declined the offer of the appointment, says the Albany Journal. The simple fact of the matter is that it has been the President's aim to find the right man for the rigtli place. Tie had found him in Gov. Crane, but Mr. Crane did not feel inclined to sac- j rifiee his personal interests in order j to enter the service of the government. ! Now the president has found another man just as well fitted for the seere- ' taryship as Gov. Crane, and he will accept. These are the simple facts of the matter. The best evidence of the excellence | of the president's choice is the com plete absence of criticism of it.even on the side of the political opponents ' of the administration. The confident j expectation that Gov. Shaw will fullv meet all requirements that will con front him in the discharge of his new duties seems to be unanimous and firm.

Committee of:«< ,tlct at New York Cltf to I'IIIII tor Arbitration. New York, Feb. 20.—The first meet ing of the executive committee of 3G, appointed by the National Civic Fed eration to arbitrate labor troubles, was held here Wednesday with Sena tor llanna in the chair. The object of the gathering was to receive a ieport on a working plan by means >f which strikes, lockouts and other forms of disputes between capitalists anil tlu- laboring class may be settled. This plan was presented by a sub committee in the form of a set of by laws, whicu provide that the chair man of the executive committee of the federation shall appoint a com mittee on conciliation to consist oi uine members, three of whom shall oe selected from each group of the executive committee, representing capital, labor and the general public, whose duty it shall be upon informa tion of threatened strike or lockout of more than local magnitude, to use its good offices iu restoring harmo nious relations. Should the efforts of the concilia tion committee prove ineffective, and should both parties to the dispute desire the service of the executive committee, it is directed that they may be invited to select two employ ers and two wage earners from the executive committee, to serve as an arbitration board. Should the four find it necessary to appoint an um pire to finally decide the dispute, they may select a fifth member from the division representing the public. Should a controversy seem of such magnitude as to justify such action, the officers of the executive commit tee shall be authorized to call a meet ing of the entire executive commit tee to consider the situation, and take such action as may be required". The executive committee may appoint auxiliary committees to deal with lo cal disturbances, the rules governing the same to be in harmony with the general purpose of the industrial de partment. At the close of the meeting Sena tor llanna said: "The meeting was very satisfactory. Thirty out of the 36 members were present, and the j spirit displayed was splendid. We j feel delighted with the results of our j efforts toward utter harmony be tween capital anil labor." MONSTER COMBINE. It Would 'fry to Control the Soft <oai Trade in tile Middle Slate*. Pittsburg, Feb. 20.—The Post says: Plans for one of the greatest coal | mining company mergings in the his- J tory of the country, which includes ' the consolidation of the Pittsburg Coal Co., the Monongahela River Con- | solidated Coal and Coke Co., and prac- } tieally all of the competing interests 1 of these companies in the Ohio, West Virginin and Illinois fields are again j attracting attention in financial cir- i cles. Recent rumors of the consolidation j of the river coal combine with the j i United States Steel Corporation have I been officially denied. That there are j other plans, however, has been ad- j mitted and conferences have been i J held in the east during the past week ! j by officials of the two Pittsburg coal • | combines and at these conferences representatives of leading New York financial houses were present. From 1 some of the Pittsburg stockholders of the river combine it is learned that L the plan for one gigantic combine of nil of the larger bituminous coal j companies had been revived. The [ preliminary steps to this end are said < to lie in the recent incorporation of j th • combines of the Central PennSyl- i i vania and West Virginia companies, | such as the Fairmont Coal Co. and t'le proposed consolidations in Oiiio and Illinois. One of the next steps, according to j t the coal men, will be the merging of I tie two big Pittsburg coal companies j into a single-headed corporation, the j i river combine with a capitalization of j $:i0,000,000 and the rail combine with ! $(>4,000,000, or a total of $94,000,000. I I The other corporations that are | slated for this final merger will, in i the rough estimate make a combined j capital of over $250,000,000. DIED UNDER A WALL.

Dulutli, Minn., Feb. 20.—The re count of the mayoralty vote in Du lutli was completed yesterday and the result is more sensational than was the original count.

Fourteen of the disputed bal lots have not the initials of the judges on the back, as required by law, end all of them are for Hugo. The Truel son faction claim the court must throw these ballotsout.

Sumption Wan In <'ommaiid--l*rcMidetit Itoonevelt Alno Sayft tliut Neither Sampson or Sell ley Did Any thing to I»e*erve I'll-. tiHiiai Reivard, Washington, Feb. 20.—The presi dent yesterday made the following statement public: I have received the appeal of Ad miral Schley and the answer thereto from the navy department. I have examined both with the utmost care, as well as the preceding appeal to the secretary of the navy. I have read through all the testimony taken before the court and the statements of the counsel for Admirals Sampson and Schley; have examined all the of ficial reports of every kind in refer ence to the Santiago naval campaign, copies of the logbooks and signal books, and the testimony before the court of claims. It appears that the court of in quiry was unanimous in its findings of fact and unanimous in the expres sions of opinion on most of its find ings of fact. No appeal is made to me from the verdict of the court on these points where it was unanimous. I have, however, gone over carefully over the evidence on these points. I am satisfied that on the whole the court did substantial justice. It should have specifically condemned the failure to enforce an efficient night blockade at Santiago while Ad miral Schley was in command. On the other hand, I feel that there is a j reasonable doubt whether he did not j move his squadron with sufficient ex- j pedition from port to port. The court | is a unit- in condemning Admiral j (richley's action on the point where it seems to me he most gravely erred, his "retrograde movement" when he abandoned the blockade. It should be remembered, however, that the majority of these actions which the court censures occurred five weeks or more before the fight itself. The question of command is in this case nominal and technical. Four of the five ship captains have testified i that they regarded Admiral Sampson j as present and in command, lie sig | nailed "( lose in"to the fleet as soon I as the first Spanish ship appeared,! but his signal was not seen by any I ! American vessel. He was actually un- ! ! der fire from the forts and himself fired a couple of shots, at the close | of the action with the torpedo boats, ! ' in addition to signalling the Indiana ! just at the close of the action. But during the action not a single order from him was received by any of the J j ships that were actively engaged. In short, the question as to which I j of the two men, Admiral Sampson or Admiral Schley, was at the time in command, is of merely nominal char acter. Technically Sampson com- J mantled the fleet, and Seliley, as ! usual, the western division. The actual fact, the important fact, is that after the battle was joined not a helm was shifted, not a gun was j fired, not a pound of steam put on in the engine room aboard any ship ac- | tively engaged, in obedience to the j order of either Sampson or Schley, ' save on their own two vessels. It j was a captain's tight. Therefore, the credit to which each | of the two is entitled rests on mat ters apart from the claim of nominal ' command over the squadron; for so far as the actual fight was concerned neither one nor the other in fact ex ercised any command. Sampson was j hardly more than technically in the | fight. His real claim for credit rests ; upon his work as commander-in ! chief. Admiral Schley is rightly entitled j ' —as is (apt. Cook—to the credit of what the Brooklyn did in the light. On the whole she did well; but I agree with the unanimous finding of the three admirals who composed the court of inquiry as to the "loop." It t seriously marred the I'rooklyn's otherwise excellent record. Hut. as the loop had once been ! taken. Admiral Schley handled the Brooklyn manfully and well Cnder such circumstances it seems to me that the recommendations of i President,MeKinley were eminently proper and that so far as Admiral Sampson and Admiral Schley were concerned it would have been unjust for him to have made other recom | mendations. Personally I feel that in view of (apt. Clark's long voyage in tiie Oregon and the condition in i which he brought her to the scene of ! service, as well as the way in which i he actually managed her before and during the fight, it would have been j well to have given him the same ad j vancenierit that was given Wain wrlght. Hut waiving this, it is evident that Wainwright was entitled tore ! eeive more than any of the other | commanders; and that it was just to j Admiral Sampson that he should re ceive a greater advance in numbers than Admiral Schley—there was noth ing done in the battle that warrant ed unusual reward for either. ißotli Admiral Sampson and Ad miral Schley are now on the retired list. In concluding their report the members of the court of inquiry unite in recommending that no further ac tion be had in the matter. With this recommendation I most heartily con cur. Hunted Down. Montreal, Feb. 20.—'Charles Savage, a negro, was arrested here Wednes day, charged with the theft of a trunk full of jewelry valued at SIO,OOO from the Portland hotel, Portland Ore., last November.
