V
Take Counsel of Reason.
EVERY MAN who amounts to
unvtliliur makes enemies.
Their number and activity
constitute a tribute. The more
i man does for others the larger risk
he runs of Incurring Ingratitude. Vn
doubtedly the bitterest enemy that any
man has la the one who lias received
favors without the nature to apprccl
ate them.
The present canvass for the nomina
tion to congress has afforded to the
enemies of the Incumbent another
chance to rally nnd exercise. They are
much the same as In former yea is.
Their chief maishals are men with
grievances. Their right to fight Is In
contestable; but the average voter
whose chief concern Is efficient repre
sentation at "Washington has no call to
Join In their Intrigues.
Choosing a congressman Is something
to be done with care. Above all, It Is
something to be done without prejudice
or passion, but with counsel of reason.
William Connell has represented this
district well. Even his enemies con
cede this. He is entitled to a re-election.
Vote next week to give one to
him.
A good licking would undoubtedly be
n. good tiling for Senator Bailey, of
Texas. It is a pity that senatorial cour
tesy prevents him from getting one.
Immigration.
THE RECORD of Immigration
arriving at Ellis Island, New
Yorl for the year which
ended Monday is complete.
It shows a total just a little less than
half a million 493.3S0, to be exact. It
xceeded by more than 30 per cent, the
'mmigration of the previous year nnd
there Is reason to believe that In the
year to come It will be largely sur
passed. Experts have estimated that
nearly a million Immigrants of nil kinds
will enter tho United States during the
calendar year 1902; an addition of one
clghtleth to our population, largely re
cruited In Central and Southern Em ope.
Of tho 493,380 arrivals In the last fiscal
year practically one-halt were Italians,
while of the other half the majority
were Hungarians, Poles and Russian
Jews.
Most ot these newcomers become, In
time, fair citizens; some become very
good citizens. Their children or their
grandchildren at the latest will largely
be Americanized and accustomed to our
speech and ways of living. In the
meantime their labor has had and Is
having Its part In forwarding the enor
mous industrial and commercial de
velopment of tho United States u de
velopment which has within a low
years put our country In the foremost
place among the nations of the earth.
1 Tho part which most of them take at
'tho beginning Is that of rough labor,
hnrd'rihybleul but not skilled toll. It is
work, from .which nutlvo labor shrinks,
,j;ct It Is necessary work; the country
vould prosper III without It. In coui'be
.of years they may qualify for higher
grades of work; many of their sons
certainly will. Hut tho strain Imposed

A Record of Stewardship.
THERE AllE things more Im
portant thnn money, but
money Is not to bo nnd 1h
not by most men despised.
We are going to quote from tho Wash
ington correspondence ot the New York
Sun a nnrrnllvoaboul money; a record
oj Republican national stewardship In
tho cltlclent conduct , of tho publlo
business of tho republic. It Is some
thing which should be rend nnd pon
dered by every voter.
"At the. end of tho fiscal year which
clo?ed Juno 30," the Sun nrtlcle snys,
"tho available cash balance In the
United States treiiBtiry Is larger than
ever before In the history ot the gov
ernment. It stands nt $208,030,022. The
excess of receipts over expenditures for
the year Is also very large, the treas
ury surplus of $92,103,390 being larger
than In any year since 1888, nnd ex
ceeded In only ten years Hlnce tho
foundation of the government. In
nearly every one of these ten years tho
revenues of tho government hud been
swelled by extraordinary taxation to
meet the expenditures of a past war
period. At this time, also, the general
fund in the treasury Is enormously
larger than ever before, the amount
being more than $289,000,000 ns against
about $158,000,000 one year ago.
"The United States government now
has u stock of gold In the treasury be
lieved to bo larger than any similar
stock anywhere In the world. The
amount of gold coin, bullion nnd ccr
tlflcntes in the treasury is $G0S,173,412.
Added to this Is gold In circulation
throughout the country which raises
tho total amount to not less than $1,
200,000,000. "Aside from the great Increases in
the available cash balance, the treas
ury surplus and the stock of gold, the
notable things in the condition of the
treasury today are that since a year
ago the amount of national bank cur
rency in the treasury has increased by
nearly $2,000,000; the amount of stand
ard silver dollars, silver certificates,
bullion and subsidiary silver coin from
about 32,000,000 to about $39,000,000, and
the government funds In national bank
repositories from $101,000,000 to $127,
000.000. "The large amount of the cash bal
ance and of the treasury surplus is re
gjrded by the treasury officials as the
more notable from the fact that many
million dollars of revenue were sacri
ficed during the fiscal year by the xe
penl ot war taxes In the spring of 1901,
and that effoi ts were made both by
Secretary Gage and Secretary Shaw so
to manage the treasury administration
as to reduce the- volume of both the
cash balance and the surplus. A yeur
ago Mr. Gnge, then secretary of the
treasury, predicted that the surplus for
the coming fiscal year would be not
less than $100,000,000, despite the fact
that many war taxes had been repealed.
Within a few months, however, he set
to work to reduce the prospective
growth of the cash balance by con
tinuing the purchase of government
bonds, nnd he made liberal deposits of
government funds la national bank de
positories. Secretary Shaw discon
tinued the purchase ot bonds soon after
he came into office, but he soon In
creased by thirty or forty millions the
deposits in national banks. Despite
these measures, however, the enormous
prosperity ot tho country caused the
growth of the cash balance and tho
surplus to go on almost unchecked.
"It was estimated early In 1901, at the
time the measure for repealing the war
taxes Was under consideration by the
senate finance committee, that the pro
posed amendments would cause a fall
ing off In Internal revenue receipts dur
ing the fiscal year of not less than $10,
000,000. The prosperity of business has
been such, however, that the reduction
In Internal revenue receipts for tho
fiscal year has been only a little more
than $34,000,000. The total receipts ot
the government from all sources during
the Inst year were $."iC3,40.",1S7. Of these
$234,450,927 were from customs, an In
crease of nearly $10,000,000 over the rec
ord of the year before; $272,f;03,214 from
Internal revenue and $30,445,040 from
miscellaneous sources.
"The Increased surplus for the year
was due, however, not so much to In
creased revenues as to decreased ex
penditures, the total disbursements
being $471,211,797, as against $309,907,333
last year. Owing 10 the practical ces
sation of fighting in the Philippines and
the consequent less expensive adminis
tration of the war department, the
military establishment called for an ex
penditure of only about $112,000,000 dur
ing the last fiscal year as against about
$146,000,000 In the fiscal year of 1S01,
Tho navy department, on tins other
hand, cost about $3,000,000 more this
year than last, but tho payments on
account of Interest on tho national dobt
wore about $4,000,000 less, and on ao
count ot pensions about $2,000,000 less
during the last year."
If tho United States were a private
corporation, such management of its
affairs us this would earn for the men
who are responsible for It the continued
confidence and esteem of Its stockhold
ers and there- would bo no question of
their letentlon In otllce, TnxpayJng
voters may well feel that they are
stockholders In such an ably managed
government and that their dividends
uro satisfactory,

In certain foolhardy circles the mil
lion cracker will no doubt be missed,

will enjoy the glorious Fourth Just us
well in its absence,
Now that nominations do not seem to

dently proposes to huvo the satisfac
tion of speaking his mind.
Mr, nall&y bets us though he had
mistaken theCloslng days of the FiftyT
seventh congress for a Democratic com
ventlon.
It now looks as though tho spring
overcoat would yet liav'o a vacation.
LITERARY NOTES.
With tho July-September Issue llio
Forum, enlarged from 123 to 1C0 pages,
evolves "as ii quarterly rovlow. It Is di
vided Into nine departments, each con
ducted by a specialist who writes a crltl
cnl exposition ot such events ot tho Inst
three mouths us come within his own
sphere. These tovlows Include, In most
cases estimates of general tendencies as
Welt as comments on spcclne Incidents.
In the Isbuo for July-Soptember "Ameri
can Politics" are discussed by Henry
Litchfield West, "Foreign Affairs" by A.
Mtuulce Low, "Finance" by A, D. Noycs,
"Applied Sclenco" by Henry Harrison Su
pice, "Tho American Drama" by John.
Corbln, "Literature" by Frank Jewett
Mather, Jr., "Architectural Art" by Pro
fessor A. D. F. Hamlin, "Educational
Events" by Osslan It. Lang, nnd "Edu
cational Research" by the editor, Dr. J.
M. Rico. In addition to these reviews, the
new number contains three special ar
ticles of the type that appeared In tho
former scries, namely, "Chinese Exclu
sion," by Hon. Charles Denny, "Germany
ns a World Power," by Wolf von Hchler
btand, and "Sir Walter Besant," by Pro
fessor W. P. Trent.
Tho North American Review for July
Is a number of striking excellence. In
the opening nrtlcle, "Tho Storngo Bat
tery and tho Motor Car," Thomas A. Edi
son describes the storago cell' just per
fected by him, through which automo
biles may be equipped for running long
distances without renewal of power.
Charles If. Cramp, tho noted shipbuilder,
discusses the "Effect of tho Steamship
Merger on American Shipbuilding." Wolf
von Schlerbiand points out the circum
stances which account for the "Personal
Influence of tho Kaiser on German Pub
He Life.'' T. V. Powderly calls attention
to "The Menace of Immigration to tha
Public Ilenlth," and tells something of
the measures that aro taken to avert It.
John Hnndlboo Insists that "Strikes and
the Public Waif are" nre inconsistent with
each other, and that legislation should
provide for the compulsory arbitration of
Industrial disputes. Lewis M. Haupt.
formerly a member ot the Isthmian canal
commission, asks "Why Is an Isthmian
Canal Not Built?" expressing a strong
preference for the Nicaragua route; and
there nre n number of other Interesting
articles.
AInslee's for July is well stored with
Illustrated articles nnd stories. "Tho
Great Lakes," by Richard Llnthlcum, Is
comprehensive In view and picturesque
In treatment. A most valuable and per
tinent contribution Is "Rest and Fa
tigue," by G. Stanley Hall, president of
Clark university. "Luxuries of the Mil
lionaire," a new series of articles. Is be
gun with by Allen Sangrce, who writes
entertainingly about horses of the mil
lionaire. "The Fight Agnlnst Smallpox,"
by Charles Fl.etcher Scolt, is a well writ
ten informative article. "Our Farmer
Aristocracy," by W. R .Draper, Is short
and meaty. "The Realm of Sleep," by
Nelth Boyce, is Intel estlng leading, and
"F. Aug. lletuz. Copper King," by Rob
ert Harlowe. Is a graphic pen portialt
from tho hAid of ono that knows his
subject thoroughly. "Topics of the Thea
tre,", as usual, has the double attraction
ot text and picture. The l)ctlon of AIns
lee's for July is notable.
There aro four particularly notnble il
lustrated ai tides In tho Outlook's Maga
zine number for July. One of these is
an appreciation of the king of England,
under the tltlo "Ills Britannic Majesty."
The wilter Is Cfeorgo W. Smalley. An
other is called "A Hundred Years of
West Point," and is written by James
Barnes; it Is devoted not so much to the
history of the century the close of which
has just been commemorated nt West
Point, as with the splilt and tradition of
the place and the II fo of tho students.
Tha third article Is "A Talk on Birds,"
by W. E. 1. Scott, tho curator of ornith
ology of Princeton university. Finally, ot
great industilal Interest Is tho paper
called "Our Ships of the Sea" by John
It. Spears; It describes llio Immeuso ad
vance made In shipbuilding In this coun
try lately.
Perhaps the most sti lltlng nrtlcle In the
Woild's AVork for July is Commander
"Dick" Walnwrlght's story of the naval
academy at Annapolis, of which he Is su
peilntendent. Donald Murray, the well
known Inventor, tells, with Illustrations,
the vividly Intel estlng story of tho great
cable systems of the world how they
draw together the various nationalities
nnd countries with a band of wile. Time
ly articles that add to an unusually full
series of editorials aro those on Martin
ique, Tho Heal Issue Ot the Coal Strike,
nnd a fair piesentatlon of tho Philippine
problem from President Roosevelt's me
morial day address, Senator Hoar's fa
mous opposition speech, and a clear state
ment of conditions in the Islands by
James A. Lo Roy, who has just letuined
to America.
, "
In Oplo Head's latest novel, "Tho Star
bucks," are many charmingly expressed
Ideas. Could one Imagine any nectar
more refreshing than "Wine fiom tho
press of Paradise'.'" And when bus tho
old southern mammy iccelved more ten
der tribute than this; "Sho Is passing
over tho threshold Into tho 'big house' of
eternity, this mother ot lovo and charity,
who bang tho llttlo children to sleep,
whoso ebony fingers bound tho wounds
of youth. Sho know enough of God to
bo all love of Christ to forglvo all
wiong." Rich In unconscious humor,
touched with geniilnii pathos, "Tho Stnr
hueks" Is a truly delightful and rcpio
sentutlvo American book. (Laird & Lee,
Chicago,)

THE MAN FOB THS PLACE.
From the Cnrbondale Leader.
"Ono good term descrvoj another'' Is
the few rending of an old axiom that np
pllosipiutlcularl.v to llio candidacy of Wil
liam Connell for congress. Mr. Council
has como to bo n power among tho na
tional law-makers nt Washington. Ho
wleldn nn influence and commands a re
spect nt the capttot that Is being con
tinually seen In tho behcflts derived from
Ills efforts to advance tho Interests of the
dUttlct. lid has accomplished mora thnn
any of his predecessors nnd no new hand
can nt once take up tho work ho hns
been carrying on. He Is the right man In
the right place and should bo kept there.
It requires several years oj acqualntnnco
and exprrlencu at Washington, coupled
with natural ability, to place a congreBW
man In position to bo of full service to his
constituents. Mr. Connell Is now nt the
height of his usefulness nnd It would be
n grave mistake not to return him to the
seat In tho house of representatives
which ho lm filled so well. Carbondnlo
expects during tho coming year to put
forth its claim for a new postofllco build
ing, and It ts such Inllucnco as he nlono
possesses that will cause tnc moasuro to
bo favorably considered by congress and
"the powers that be."
PERTINENT QUESTIONS.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The question of subsidizing Amorl
enn steamship lines Is ns yet "under ad
visement." If wo keep our ship Biibsldy
question "undor ndvlsoment" much longer
our chance to overtake and pass tho oth
er nations In tho matter of nn ocean ma
rine, bo nccessaiy to the extension of our
foreign trade, will bo gone. Tho first
question Is, how long can wo go on, great
as 'our homo consumption Is, building
new factories nnd Increasing our product
without more foreign outlets?
Tho second question Is, how can wo se
cure and hold i these necessary foreign
outlets without a very largo lncrcaso of
our ocean marine?
Tho third question Is, hrfw can wo In
duce capital to enter tha ship building
and ship operating tlelds without a meas
ure of protection (subsidies) equal to that
afforded to other lines of Industry?
The fourth question is, bow long will
congress dllly-dnlly with this most Impor
tant requirement?
Tho fifth nnd most vital question of all
Is, how long will the American voters
submit to this dilly-dallying?

THINGS WOBTH NOTING.
Compiled for The Tribune by Walter J,.
Ballard.
Census figures prepared by S. N. D.
North show that we have nearly ten bil
lion dollars' capital Invested In manu
factures; that tho annual output Is worth
thirteen billion dollars; that from 18.",0
to 19,00 capital Increased nineteen fold,
wage-earners five und one-half fold,
wages paid ten fold, and value of pro
dutcs, thirteen fold. These Increases ate
remarkable, considering that our popula
tion Increase was two and one-quarter
fold (only half the increase In wage
enrners) and products of agriculture wero
about four and three-quarter billion dol
lars, of whlchone and one-sixteenth bil
lions "was Increase, or less than three
fold. Says Mr. North: "The total money
volumo of tho wholesale and retail tran
sactions in tho manufactured) products of
the United States Is unquestionably
gicater than tho volume of the Interna
tional trade of the principal countries of
the world, which equals tho sum of $20,
O03,8S4,334." Ex-President Cleveland, In his Tllden
club speech, came out strong for tariff
revision and against the present system
because It "encourages huge Industrial
aggregations that throttle Individual en
terprise." Well, the country had a tasto
for several years of complete Democratic
domination in national affairs and of
Democratic tariff reform. And Its recol
lection of the way "Individual enterprise"
and enterprise in every other direction
wero throttled fiom 1S93 to 1S97 Is still
very vivid. A man less bold and Inde
pendent than Mr. Cleveland would huvo
hesitated before reminding tho people and
his party xpf that unhappy experience.
