This bank of Spain lias decided to make all payments in silver. Prosperity ought to be the result according to the ailverites, but the Spanish talk is of hard times and an unpromising outloort. Dominican Republic So many rtvu.-o have occurred In that country in the past quarter or a century that no one would be surprised it a rising should occur at this time. The assassination of its Presi dent shows that the connitions which or- inarily lead to revolta are at hand. There are a comparatively large number ol Europeans and Americans in the Do minican Republic, and almost all or them it is understood favor annexation to the United States. If that annexation pro- ect of thirty years ago which President Grant fa-vored, and which the people of the island agroad to, had been carried out it would undoubtedly have been a bene fit to all parties. The present disturb ances may lead to another annexation movement. This time it would aucced. he country in 1S!9 is a littlo wiser than was in I860. Thkhb are a tew Puerto Rican cranks among American ne.vspapers still, but they are diminishing rapidly. The Porto Ricans, howover, spell their island and themselves in the United Slates way. Dkmocrats must not forget that Thom as Jefferson, who wrote the Declaration of Independence, annexed the Louisiana purchase without giving the slightest at tention to the consent ot the governed. Now that Gen. Wood has stamped out yellow fever in Santiago his methods ought to reoeivo prompt attention at Hampton Roads. . The measures he en forced wero followed ty immediate im provement. The Democratic Boston Globe remarks that "we are making vast strides in home manufacture and gradually taking first place in the world's open market " No body talked that way when the Wilson lnw was in operation. Many people who read the present clamor in the yellow journals against General Otis in command In the Philip pines, will be reminded by these tirades of similar ones against our generals in the Union army during the war for the nion. Almost every commander of the rmy of the Potomac came In for his full share of abuse. General Hallack was called an "old fossil ;" General Sherman as accused of being of unbalanced mind nd Grant was said to be a drunkaid. President Lincoln was importuned re peatedly to relieve Grant of his command as ho was a butcher and drank too much. Lincoln asked one of the faultfinders one ay who complained that Grant drank too much, if be knew where Grant got his hiskey, as he would like to get some of the same kind to furnish to some other generals in the army. Lincoln had con- dence In Grant a-.d his confident was justified by after results. The country should take no stock in this clamor against army officers, in most instances is jealousies and disappointments and not worthy of consideration. Keystone Gazette. Tub Montgomery Advertiser, a Dem ocratic paper.says the people of the South aro learning that "good money can't be made out of poor material." Perhaps some unpleasant surprises are in store for the silver party in that section. Somk years ago all the silk used in this country was imported. Xow Pennsyl vania alone i producing f.12,000,000 worth of silk products a year. The industry bus increased in the state S3 per cent, since 1805 and is constantly growing. IP the Democrats aro so much imbued with Mr. Ilavemeyer's notion that "the tariff is the mother of trusts," why don't tliey nominate him for President and give the whole country a chance to pass upon the case, and see how much of a following this Idea would have, anyway? Thb liellfonte Watchman suggests: "That the unpopularity of the McKinley administration has come to stay is evi dent by tho fact that it has taken Hoot." It might also have added that the whole thing has gone to seed. Clarion Demo' erat. Aud will bear the biggest crop of votes in 1000 that the Democrats of this country ever heard of. Tub Deuiocratio press is trying lo make some capital out of tho statement made by Sugar King Uavemeyer, that "the tariff is the mother oi trusts." The facts are Mr. H. is sour because he did not succeed in securing a highor 'a. ill on sugar, so that his trust could not be in terfered with. The policy of the Repub lican tariff is to give consumers the com modities of life at the lowest possible price consistent with the demands of rev enues and the protection of American labor. No one, Democrat or Republican, will have any sympathy with Mr. 11. when the animus of his expression is understood. In a recent interview Congressman elect Charles II. Burke, of South Dakota who is at the Xormandie Hotel, Wash ington, said: "South Dakota gave Bryan a beggarly majority in 1890, but last year it went Republican by over 6,000 votes, and there is no danger of its tailing to support the Republican national ticket in 1!HX). The fusion between Democrats and Populists, that was so strong three years ago, will never be effected again. Out side of Colorado I do not believe there is a single Northwestern State that Mr, Bryan has much prospect of carrying, I consider that President McKinley's re nomination and re-election are in the n tnreof a foregone conclusion. The ad ministration is popular Id the North west." A man once had a contract, at a stipu lated price per load, for hauling garbage, in a town of about 5000 inhabitants. At the eiid of a week lie had hauled away about all the rubbish in sight, and began to'query about what he should do next week. Ho soon hit upon a plan which worked all right for a while, when it was discovered that he had been re-weighing the garbage pile to the extent of some f80 worth. Only a slight change in the tur faco or each load served to decieve the man at the scales. Atide from the injury to the city exchequer of the town, thi incident serves, not only to illustrate the proverbial chicanery of mankind, but also to remind one of the verbiage in the platform of a Democratic National conven I,"", i ne mm nas only been re-sr tanged on the surface. rttnx'y Spirit Having U'ou served wiiu strict notice from the county and liorough authorities that I am expected to settle all tax dupli cates at once, and there being still a large number of delinquents on my books I wish, respectfully but very positively to notify all such that each and every one must pay up by Sept. 1st. 1S99.

Ue has Ions been a close friend of ex-President Cleveland and in the latter's last canv paign he contributed largely of his pri vato means to effect his election. A few days since, in conversation with leading Democratsofthatcitv.be made the de claration that America's present gr-at ness is the result of the Republican poli cy ot protection. He said : "Yes I did tell General Tracy, that within the past year I have changed my views completely, that I am now coiv vineed that the prosperity and stupend ous srowth of this country is due In no small measure to the principles which are at the bottom of the policy of protec lioti, and I have recently felt free to say it to others. I was nev ir ashamed of my convictions when they were in perfect sympathy with the tariff views expressed by Mr. Cleveland In his famous message, and with those held by the great body of the Democratic party, and I am not ashamed now to say that in the ligut of recent events I have completely changed those views and now see, as I believe, clearly that the amazing growth in all that makes for permanently prosperous conditions and in all influences that have so recently established the United Sta tes as a first power among the nations of .the world, not only political but financially ard commercially, is due in a great mess- ure to the policy of protection. "I have dreamed that the time would come when I should be willing to make an admission of this kind. But facts are stronger than theories, and the fact re mains that in the past six years we have bad abundant proof that there is Rome fallacy so far as the United States is con cerned in the doctrine which the Demo cratic party held, and which Mr. Cleve land proclaimed in his message. On ibe other hand, there was truth in the claims made by McKinley, by Dingley, by Mor rill and by the other great protectionists, and so understanding this, I am now ready to say that I see the truth and am ready to acknowledge it." -Don't miss reduction sales at Miles A Armstrong's.

If we mistake not, the first appearance of trusts, the modern trust, in this coun try came by way of Great Britain, the lovely free-trade country. We believe it was the Britons who organized great moneyed syndicates to buy our brewer ies, railways and warehouses with a view to controlling them. Those syndicates were peculiarly monopolistic and arbi trary dnd it is due the American people to say that they revolted against the in trusion and in most instances tli syndi cates turned out deficits I r stead of divi dends, and few if any of them are doing business in this country. The general public having knowledge of these facts, have small patience to read academic discussions of the charge made by the preposterous Havemeyer. Tbey aro content with observing that he migh as truthfully have charged that the war of the revolution or the policy of expan sion, or the defeat of Jerry Simpson is the "mother of trusts," as to bleat that the tariff Is the maternal source of all the evils which follow in the wake of trusts.

C. SciiAKi'ER, Pennsylvania" distinguished Superintendent or Public IliKtrnction, delivered au address before tho Nationr.l Educational Ansociatio convention at Lob Angole.", recently, say ins in part: "The Great Teacher did not despise the arts that win bread, for He worked at the carpenter's bench, but when He told the tempter that man shall not livo by bread algne He clearly point ed to a higher life, which rcita upon the other as a basis and which alone can lift men and women to their destined place as lords of creation. It ia the province of the school not merely to fit tbepupi! bet ter for bread winning and to increase his earning power, but to prepare bim to think the best thoughts ol the best men as eiislirin'-d in literature, to see and think God's thoughts as they are embodied and expressed in all creation, to enjoy the things of the mind, to appreciate the true, the beautiful, and tho good, to live the life of thought and fait:i and hope and love." American prlnar Waters. An excellent move in the right direc tion is that of bringing prominently into view the virtue of American spring wa ters by means of a public exhibit and sale under exceptionally attractive con ditions. It Is with American spring wa ters as with American wines: familiarity breeds respect; tbey need only to be known to be appreciated. To promote a wider knowledge on this subject the plan has been adopted of establishing stands In many of the largo commercial build Ings of New York, where native spring waters in many varieties are dispensed by the glass at a moderata price. The water is displayed in a handsome glass recepticle so constructed as lo contain the ice in a central cylinder, while the crystal water, kept from contact with tue ice, and cooled to a natural spring temperature, is shown through the outer circumference of the glass jacket. A con aiderable number of concerns handling spring waters have adopted this method of securing the favorable introduction of their waters, and with excellent rosul's. Any plan is to be commended that tends to impress upon Americans the fact that in their own country are found waters equal to any in the world alike, for by gienic and for potable purposes.
