SCRANTON, NOVKMRRR 22, 1300.
Ot'iicrul MmcuIioIom, u foinu-r Filipino
chief, has been ticpullised to convey
ncHH of election to Agulimldu. .Miiou
IoIoh will be nucompnnlud by 100
picked men. who Impe to convince the
yellow nsltatnr that the ofTnils of IiIh
wood Amcrlciin friends In the way of
hi'iiipprlnrr proRi'CHH at Manila, will
always be conllnecl strictly to talk.
Possibilities of Invention.
A"f"" HK MAN who piofeseeM hi be
I able to luu ni'M.i the ocean
JL and acquire mechanical
power fiom the waves Is
.Willi at the fiont confident Hint the
problem of milking the seu do the
world's work without letting the wat
ers wreck the ocean-motor whenever
they become "troubled," lias at
lavi been solved. Heretofore, the
uncertain conditions of the surf
have been an obstnele In the way of
success whenever a machine has been
set In motion. AValer engines that
looked well on pnper anil even worked
to the theorel'ical limit of smoothness
and elliclcney In calm weather would
go to smash In the first heavy surf. The
latest essay In this line, according to
the Washington Star, proposes a series
of submerged pistons, worked by buoys
whose constant motion Is expected to
compress air. The question is whether
the piston machinery can bo anchored
.sufllclently to prevent It from being
swept away by the heavy undertow of
the surf. The beaches avo always
changing their formation, and It may
prove a serious pioblem to secure an
adequate foundation for the compress
ing mechanlclsm.
Some day this great invention may
be perfected, and then it will be In
order to see a transformation of our
seashores into continuous mechtno
shops. There is no doubt that power
derived from such a. source would be
much cheaper than thut derived from
fuel. The fuel problem is not yet piess
Ing. but If industries multiply In the
coming century at the ratio that has
prevailed during the closing century
the generation of a hundred years
hence may sorely feel the pressure of
this need. Increased use of cataract
water power. such as at Niagara, has
served somewhat to chock the develop
ment of this crisis, and doubtless in the
course of a few decades the water pow-.-r
will be utilized to the limit now
dreamed of by enterprising promoters.
Meanwhile the sun-power inventor is
at work, hoping some day to transform
the sun's energy into mundane motive
force. But little progress seems to
have been made along this line of late,
as few announcements of discoveries
and perfections of mechanism have ap
peared. As between the sun-power
and the sea-power machines there ap
pears to bo a decided advantage in
favor of the latter. Although the sea
Is occasslonly calm to such a point that
it would probaly hardly "earn its salt"
in the production of power, these peri
ods are Inslgnlllcant compared with the
number of hours in each year that the
sun is not available for work. In other
words, the question of storage -of power
is by no means as pressing In the casa
of a machine driven by the waves as
of one driven by solar heat.
Tlio unconsured dispatches from
Manila show that the correspondents
did not have much up their sleeves
after all.
Army Recruiting.
K
lIIOM PRESENT Indications
the United States recruiting
offlcois have no light task
ahead In filling the ranks of
the aimy, soon to be depleted by the
discharge of a large number of men
who have seived their time, and unless
the high standard of qualifications for
legular army service la modified it Is
dlftlcuit to see how men can be secured
to take the places of those who will In
a few months quit the service, At the
present time there Is Mich a demand
fur ablp-bodied men In the rejuvenated
industrial world that the recruiting
stations offer no Inducements for the
acrage young American.
The man who can earn two or three
dollars a day at employment that he
can leave when It suits him Is sonic
wlTat averse to taking up with army
llfpj at ?lf, a month. "lie overlooks the
rati Mint he gets his food and clothes
In-lfieurmy, and medical attention nnd
little th'.ings of that sort that he must
pay for, In pilvate life. Kiguivd up ut
the eniT1 of the year, the volunteer Is
not fur behind In the matter of earn
ings, and ho has in addition an excel
lent opportunity to see much of the
most interesting part of the globe at
tin; expense of the government. Yet
the recruits, are not coming so plenti
fully as they might and the problem of
attracting recruits may piove moro
serious than now anticipated, It Is
possible that the establishment of ie
cnjltlng offices In tlio country districts,
where' wages ate not so high as In the
Industrial centeis, may help out, but
the drawback in such places Is thut
thero are not mi many men from whom
to select.

The. secretary of the treasury, In his
forthcoming report, will without doubt
1 commend the abolition or reduction
of war stamp tuxes to the extent of
fiom $15,000,000 to 3O,OOO,O0O a year,
The difllculty in determining what
taxes ahull be discontinued will prob
ably be the only obstacle. In the wav
of a satisfactory arrangement of the
chunge. The gleutest objection to the
stamp tux in most Instances conies
from tint .fact that -,U ' " nuisance
rather than from the trifling expense.
In rase of Iho bonk chock, where the
stamp Ii usually pilntcd upon Iho
blank, but lltllo trouble Is experienced
In fulfilling tho mandates of Uncle
Sam, but In the telegram blank! the
small note or lease, the stump busi
ness become nn annoyance. While It
may not be possible to please ull In
the reduction of tho revenue tux, It Is
piohablo that the public In general
Would merer the abolition of taxes
that urn a nuisance rather than a
sllcht reduction upon all or the tax.
Latest news from Turkey eonllnns

Contributions to Our Wealth.
AN KXC'HANCIK has under
taken to give an explana
tion of some of the elements
that assist In muklng this
rnuntry richer, In following the com so
of securities:
At least one-half of all the American
securities held abroad four- years ami,
It Is said, have come back home, it
muy be added that they have come
buck at a lower price than they went
away, nnd mna of them at lower
prices Hum now prevail. Under tho
llrst threat of Hryanlsni and fiee sli
ver In 18UG, there was a perfect nanlc
among European holders of American
shares and bonds. American capital
iccovercd confidence long before that
panic subsided and took over largo
lines of securities at the bottom prices,
the Increasing American exports sup
plying European credit for the ab
sorption. Since the late election, however, there
have been marked evidences that
Europe Is anxious to recover Its Amer
ican holdings. The stock market flurry
began In London, nnd during the most
aotlve days there were heavy buying
orders from abroad, the sellers belnc
on this side of the ocean. In as far
as stocks have been going abroad
again this year, or may go next year,
there Is a large profit on the American
side a credit in addition to the heavy
excess of exports over Imports. Europe
is contributing to our wealth.
A surprise Is doubtless In store for
those who imagine that the vice-pre,sl-dency
will prove the political sar
cophagus of Colonel Roosevelt.
The Butter War.
N THE MINDS of. candid observ
ers of the trend of events in
agricultural lines, there seems no
I
question that the cow Is In
danger of following the horse on the
road to extinction. It is scarcely with
in the possibilities of natural history,
says the Chicago News, that this noble
animal can long survive the machina
tions of the makers of oleomargarine.
The butter men deny with scorn that
there W any plan to form a creamprv
trust or that, in the nature of thines,
any such trust should be formed. They
point out that the creameries are too
numerous to be bought up and con
solidated. Then they show that the
high price of creamery butter Is prob
ably due to the oleomargarine makers,
who are 'buying up the product and
advancing prices in order to prejudice
the mind of the consumer and to create
the impression that ereampry butter
Is an aitlcle of luxury, obtainable only
by the rich. Thus it appeals that while
the creameries are so numerous that
nobody could buy them all It Is quite
feasible for somebody to buy all the
butter.
The end Is plain. The malevolent
oleomargarine men will go on buying
butter and advancing the price until
the people cannot stand tho tax and In
despair will resort to tho cheap sub
stitute, "bull butter." But every cloud
has a silver lining. By the time this
Is accomplished all the creamery men
will lie millionaires through selling
butter at exorbitant prices and the
oleomargarine men will be bankrupt
through having Invested all their
money In high-priced butter which no
one can buy. Then the rich creamery
men can whip the poor oleomargarine
men at their leisure.
It has been announced that Secietary
Long, In his next annual icport, will
advise the formation of a naval reserve
out of the seafaring class to strengthen
the navy quickly In case of war. This
Is common enough hi other maritime
nations. Merchant s.illois are paid a
small sum, like millt. '-y icserves, to
submit to peilodl.'ivl training and hold
themselves icady for seivice In time of
need. This would be very different from
the present state organizations of naval
militia. Members of these belong to the
samw social class ns tho National
Gun rd. They are no more sallois than
tho others are soldiers, They me en
thusiastic young men of a dozen dif
ferent callings, none of which perhaps
Is related to the sea or llts them for
the hard labor and stern discipline of
shipbouul. The young gentlemen of the
naval mllltla thai got on men-of-war
In 1S98 had tho expeilence of their lives,
and the bravest thing they ever did
was to enduie it without a whimper.
The secretary proposes to leave the
mllltla to the local duty of coast de
fense and to get lake mid coast sailors
Into tho reserve,
A specimen of tho Inequality of
representation in. cougicss Is given in
the offlclul vote of Mississippi, which
with tho results In from other states,
have put Into thu hands of those who
wane to reduce representation in con
gress to it basis of quulilled electors u
weapon of an effective character. The
volu was 51,70(1 Democratic, o,7.":i Re
publican, and 1,611 1'npullst; 5D,103 In
ull, Thesu W.OOO votes eleot seven
members of congiess, The population
of Mississippi In IS'JO wus 1,'.'S!),G00. In
the Fourteenth New Vork district, for
Instance, with a population of Silfllis,
one member of congress was elected
this year by u vote or about CS.000,
neglecting the scattering candidates;
or some 10,000 juore tlutn chose seven
members of congress hi Mississippi.
This "is a condition of inequality and
Injustice thut will rankle continually
In the American mind, whutever fear
there may be thut to take uny specific
remedy proposed would perhaps make
a bad matter; worse.

LITERARY NOTES.
Itudyjrd Kipling's new novel, "Klin," will dp
gin in the December isue of McClure's Maga
zine. Tills Ls a tale of life in India, and In it
the lller.trv genius gives a profound study of
Oriental life. Tills is the author's masterpiece,
sinel It fulfills In lis larger scope all (be promise
of bis earlier and shorter works.
One of Hie most exltaordinary. yet permanent,
successes of contemporary literature was that
made by Anthony Hope In the "Dolly Dialogued.'
America and England alike rejoiced in the ie
fined and subtle humor, the clear insight, tlie
pervasive human interest of these; conversations.
McCltnis magazine for December will contain
tlie first in a series of "Moie Dolly Dialogues,"
In willed all tde cdatni of the earlier work is
continued.
