Blowing her up cost Spain some 35 battle ships and cruisers worth 50 millions, in addition to her best islands and the expenses of keeping up the war. This was a dear blow-up. ror —————— It was entirely amusing how the result of last Saturday's Republican primaries is credited up. The Quay people claimed a victory and so did the anti-Quays. Arnold is claimed as the candidate of Quay and also of the opposite faction. Jack Dale smiles and that settles it as having been a Quay victory. a————— A A AAAS The Spaniards at Santiago not hav- ing time to bury their dead, piled them up, soaked in kerosene, and burned them. Vengeance overtakes the evil doer, finally. This proves true with nations and individuals ; men who will wrong and seek seek to injure a fellow man, will find, sooner or later, that vengeance will overtake them et ——————————— President McKinley, for the credit of his administration, needs to give sec- retary Alger, an invitation to resign. Neglect, hunger and fevers, are the re- sult of Alger's incompetency and the President erred greatly in not giving him his walking papers weeks ago, thereby saving the lives of many of our brave soldiers. The unauthorized matter put in Dr. Warren's report amounted to $65,000 ! The useless and unauthorized insect matter put into the State College re- port without the authority of Dr. Ath- erton, amounts to about the same sum. These jobs were vetoed by Governor Hastings. If Quay’s man Stone elected governor. these bills, along with the mileage and other steals, will be approved and paid. If Jenks is elected governor, these attemptéd steals will be headed ofl. iia imi pvt imi All of the Leiter holdings of wheat in this country, as well as that held in joint account in the Northwest, have been sold. On the wheat there was a loss of nearly $2,000,000 but it was dis- posed of at the prices at which it was turned over to Armour and Peavey to sell. There is but one more chapter to Joseph Leiter's wheat deal, that is the payment of his indebtedness to com- mission houses, It isa large amount and is only partially guaranteed by the elder Leiter. Bo far the Leiters are out over $10,000,000 on the wheat deal. Ee - It is reported that the Spanish gov- ernment is going to hold an investiga- tion to determine who is responsible for the disasters. The United States can have no objection. If the inquiry is vigorously and searchingly made it may discover the man who blew up the Maine, thinks the Pittsburg Dis- patch. Yes, and if the search is kept up it will show that a fellow by name of Dewey, out at Manila, and another by name of Schley, down at Bantiago, had some connection with Spain's dis- asters, A Washington estimate puts the cost of the war up to the signing of the protocol, last week, at $150,000,000, of which $98,000,000 has been actually paid out. The total by the war de partment has been $65,300,000 and by the navy $32,700,000. Congress appro- priated $360,000,000 at its late session for war expenses on the basis of carry- ing on the war to January 1, 1899, A great deal of this money will be ab- sorbed, as war expenses still continue on a large scale, and will be until the military and naval expenditures are cut down by the mustering out pro- is Quay victory. The fight was a bitter one, and the supposition was that Clem Dale would carry the county ov- er Arnold for congress, and thus it should have been. But floods of mon- ey are hard to fight, nor are a great dle proof, Col.

At night he puts the shavings and wood in the fire pot and has in front of it a plate of steel with a hole through which protrudes a parlor match. Next to this is a flat file with a string at- tached, which runs to his bed up stairs. Pulling the string draws the file over the head of the mateh which ignites the shavings and sets things going without one’s getting out of bed.
