AVhetlier or not tho editor of the

the position of postmaster of l'otts

does not say, but we freely endorse
all it says as to the merits of Mr. Cole
us an oiliclal. Ho is certainly de
serving of the recognition from every
standpoint. But if we are to judge
from tho past, so far as the gentle
man who has the appointing power
is concerned, wo have our doubts as
to favorable consideration upon our
editorial brother's application, should
lie decide to enter tho contest, for a
position which is his by every right.
No one labored more faithfully, in
beason and out of season, for the re

friend Cole; and none but a news
puper man can fully appreciate the
task that was before him in dealing
with the sul jeet matter. Tho name
of tho Hon. Augustavus Schrink, de

is also mentioned in this connection,

A Gentle Hint.
The next four weeks comprise that
season of the year when every one
not positively poor spends an unusual
amount of money. Articles for
which few of us feel able to pay out
our cash at other seasons of the year,
will be bought, and many purses that
are kept pretty closely drawn at other
times, will now bo opened and kept
open until the glad season is once
more numbered with the past. This
isn't a theory, then, wo are discuss
ing it is n condition, and the wise
merchant conducts himself accord
ingly. In this town and vicinity there are
merchants not a few who have made
a name and it business that is large
and profitable. They will make heavy
Bales the next few weeks even if they
do not spend a penny with the news
papers. And among them nil there
isn't one no, not one who will not
sell a great deal more, if he calls at
tention, to Ids store and to his tempt
ing wares at tempting prices through
advertisements in this paper.
Of course, we are personally inter
ested in this view of tho matter. Hut
not ono whit moro than the mer
chants. They desire to sell their
goods. Wo want to help them sell
through our advertising columns, anil
tho experience of many years, and
the testimony of many shrewd mer

profitable to both parties. Come

"My gain was steady: my return to

" In ail I took eighteen boxes of the pills
before I was entirely well. At first I paid
50 cents a box, but afterwards I saved
money by getting six boxes at a time,

EXPANSION PROBLEMS.
Wlint Slmll lip Dono With Clilnono-
llnwulluns unil HrltlHli Clulnihf
Washington, Dec. 3. The United
States government Is being called) upon
to race some nuestlons of interest re
suiting from the expansion policy. The
British government some tlma before
the unnexntlon of Hnwalt to the United
States filed with Hawaii a number 0
claims for redress for the 111 treat
ment nnd Illegal confinement of Hrlt
Ish subjects, involved in the levolu
tlonnry movement which overthrow the
queen. These amount to several huii
dred thousand dollars In the aggregate,
nnd the question Is. the Hawaiian gov
eminent having failed to settle them
whether the United States government
does not Inherit liability. The claims
are Just such as were Hied by the late
Secretary Greshnm ngalnst the Ha
wallan government In behalf of a num
ber of alleged American citizens, most
of whom afterward turned out to be
aliens. None of our claims was pressed,
but they formed the foundation for the
British claims.
Another question of more Importance
Is tho determination of the status of
some of our newly acquired citizens or
subjects. Alieady a Chinaman by birth,
but a Philippine by citizenship, has
applied for recognition as an Ameri
can citizen. Another Chinaman In Ha
wull wants a passport showing that he
is a citizen of the United States. The
annexation prohibits the coming Into
tho limits of the United States of Chi
nese persons from Hawaii, but the con
stltutlonnllty of any act that proposes
to discriminate among American cltl
zona has been raised, and this China
man Is a citizen by ndoptlon. These
are a few of these questions thnt have
already arisen and others aro expectea
to follow In the near future.

Washington, Dec. 3. Senator Eugene

It Is by no means unlikely that within
six months or a year everybody, In

The people of the United States
will find out thnt the commerce of the
Philippines is very limited in extent;
that they nre Inhabited by a people
whose habits and wants forbid an ln-
rense of trade, and that under the
scheme of annexation presented to us
this trade Is to be shared equally with
Spain and nil other competing nntlons.
What Is called the 'open door' policy
cuts down the Interest of the United
States In the Philippine trade to a
point where It makes no figure In our
commerce. The entire trade of the

derived from It, but the whole amount
of trade will not, in any year, pay the
expenses of the army and the navy

New York, Dec. 3. It. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade says: The re
port of failures for the month of No
vember Is extremely gratifying, be
cause It shows not only a decrease In
number and a smaller amount of lia
bilities than In nny other month ex
cepting three summer months since ,the
monthly record begnn, but because
careful analysis shows a striking Im
provement, both In the small and In
the large failures and In nearly all
classes of Industry and trade. Consid
ering that failures nre usually smaller
In summer months than In November,
the monthly icturn may be considered
about 'the best over made, and shows
a condition of financial soundness
rarely surpassed. Failures for tho
week have been 281 In the United
States' against 300 last year, -nd 19
in Cnundn, against 28 last year.
Bradstreet's review says: Tho busi
ness world enters on the closing month
of theear with so many favorable and
so few depressing features In sight as
to leave little doubt that the year 1898
us a whole must hereafter furnish tho
bnsls for estimate when comparisons
of large business nre to be made. Near
ly all obtnlnable statistics and reports
as to the volume of business point to
the present year as having exceeded
any former year In the amount of
business done, and though comparisons
ns regards prices are not so favorable
as In earlier years, notably 1892 and
1S90, when quotations of most staples
were considerably higher, still the ex
pansion in trade, duo to Increased pop
ulation nnd enlarged foreign demand
for our products, has resulted In an
aggregate volume of business consider
ably In excess of any former year.

Kx-('oiicroHsinaii CoiTiptoii Dead.
Laurel, Md., Dec. 3. Ex-Congressman
Barnes Compton died at his home
In this place yesterday from the effects
of a paralytic stroke sustained two
days prevjous. His wife and several
children survive him. Mr. Compton
was successively elected as a Democrat
to both houses of the legislature. From
1871 to 1884 he was state treasurer of
Maryland, and In the latter year was
elected to congress, serving two terms.
A Honib la lli'lirniitlno City.
Atlantic City, Dec. 3. A bomb was
exploded last night beneath the resi
dence of Councllman-at-Large Edward
Johnson, of Ilrlguntlne City, tearing a
hole In the ground and shattering win
dows, but doing no Injury to any per
son In tle cottage. Mr. Johnson thlnles
It Is the work of his political enemies,
whom ho was Instrumental in turning
out of ofllce by proving that fraud had
been perpetrated In one ward. The
bomb was made of lead gas pipe, two
feet long, and charged with dynamite.
Francis Joseph's ,7 lib 1 1 00.
Vienna, Dec. 3. The illuminations
last night In honor of Emperor Francis
Joseph's jubilee wore superb. They ex
tended Into the remotest suburbs of
Vienna, every window In private
houses being lighted. The effects at
the rathhaus and the Commemoration
church were grand. The emperor's
bust or portrait everywhere figures
alone, and not, as formerly, side by
side with that of the Empress Eliza
beth. This gives a note of sadness,
which Is heightened by the decorum
of demonstrations usually noisy. Huge
crowds are parading the streets, but
there Is no shouting and very little
cheering, the populace thus Indicating
its sympathy with the emperor's be
reavement. No Wo mint For Governor Tanner.
Carlinvllle, Ills., Dec. 3, The excite.
ment over the findings of the Virden
grand Jury Is somewhat abated. The
legal processes have been Instituted
against all the parties Indicted for par
ticipation in the riot except Governor
Tanner. State Attorney Vaughn stated
that no bench warrant would be Issued
for Governor Tanner, at least not for
the present. He stated as his opinion
that when the executive was wanted
for trial he would appear voluntarily.
This would be decided by mutual agree
ment.
