Carso Gregg, we on the prineiple of expansion and acquisi- tion on their own continent the results are of the best. It is l'ke a fuiry tale to read how the country hus been en- | riched by the early acquisitions of Jefferson and the later ones of Polk and Pierce, They added valuable and pecessary territory, inviting millions of homogeneous population, and in- creasing immeasurably the power and grandeur of the Union, And not only that, these acquisitions have bettered and advanced the whole humsn race. Yet these grandest achievements of cur history actually cost us less than one year's outlay in the Phillipines, where the people do not want us, and where the Americans will not go, ex- cept as soldiers, speculators, gamblers and saloonkeepers, That is the history of the American occupation in the Philippines, As an investment it has brought us no gain, only dishonor an | d sgrace. Our soldiers have fought bravely, but the memory of cruelty, torture, the killing of prisoners, all “ pot under ten,” with the water cure, starvation and thirst, will Jast longer in hastory then the record of Spring Mills. As a sequel to the matrimonial ad- venture spoke n of a week or two sinee, of an odd looking “fish” from the west, arriving here for the purpose of securing a wife, fully armed with all kinds of credentials and testimonials us regards charscter and worldly pos- sesslons—evidently all bogus, fur he actually had the impudence apd as- surance to call upon one of our promi- nent ecitiz ns to solicit a loan until he visited 1 e’lefonte and had an inter- view with his old friends Gen. Hast- ings and Ex Governor Beaver, and either ove would immediately relieve him of his present financial embarras- ment. The gentleman addressed how- ever, was too well informed to be hood- winked by any such popeense and in- dignantly refused the request, so the western fraud left our village without obtaining a wife or even a small loan, and in his perplexities and disappoint- ments, actually npeglected to pay his hotel bill. Miss Theresa, dsughter of H. H. Raclau of our village is at present at college taking a course of eighteen dif- ferent branches in ber studies, ¢m- bracing drawing and painting, also quisition of even far-fl’ snd polar tining our acquisitions to our own con- tinent, Alask cost us $7,000,000 and not a life. The Philippives have cost us $300 000,000 from the start | and not less than 8,000 American lives, with five times that number of Filipi- nos, men, women and children. Alaska promises to become a valuable | acquisition. single Its gold discoveries and | fisheries are of vast promise, railroads are being extended to Alaska and coal N. P—Dmvid K. K¢ W. P—P. B.

The chief reason assigned is the confusion that would ensue from double bookkeeping. The board will recommend, in place of the post-eheck scheme, the adoption of a slightly modified form of the Can- adlan monpey-order system, which fur. nishes engraved notes for different small sume, beginning at 15 cents and running as high as two dollars and fif- ty cents. The board will propose that the United States fractional notes run no higher then two dollars. It is pro- posed that for each note, whatever its size up to one dollar, one cent be charged, so that for two or three cents at the outside almost any sum can be procured by combination, up to the point where the money order proper would come into play. One-half the fee would goto the carrier who sells the notes, the other half to the Govern- ment. a Seaboard Alr Line 2000 Mile Tickets at $40, Seaboard Alr Line Railway sn. nounces that effective May 15th, 1902, 2000 mile tickets of its issue good over a portion of the system, heretofore sold at $40. will be withdrawn from sale, Seaboard Interchangeable 1000 mile tickets, at $25, will interest you.
