It is now in order for our Hawaiian brothers to show their patriotism and their regard for tlie new llii, by or ganizing u few regiments for the re lief of Dewey und Otis at Manila. Now that the treaty has been rati fied, the next question to be deter mined, so far as tlie Democratic, mi nority is concerned, who is secured a victory, lJryun or Uoruinn, Oroker &: Co.? The Missouri House ' has passed a resolution favoring a direct vote of the people for United States Senators. Any reasonable senatorial change would be an improvement on these monotonous deadlocks. SPBAKINU of quo warranto pro ceedings, isn't it about time to set down on these chronic office-seekers, who, failing to get whut they want, rush into court and attempt to set aside the verdict of the people ? We think so. No item of American export is in creasing more rapidly than that of agricultural machinery. Tlie Thresh ennan'a Review mentions one concern that turned out last year 100,000 mow ing machines, so, now binders and 00, 000 reapers. It might be pertinent at this time to state that during the two years Councilman John P. Boeinu was Chief Burgess of tiiis town he clearly demonstrated his usefulness. During Ills two terms the borough actually paid out but fifty dollars for salary. He made up the balance by collec tion of fines. He was the most efficient Burgess the town ever had. mid he has carried his reform ideas into Council. For these and other reasons, pertinent at this time, the voters of the Second ward will re turn him to Council. WllKN a man has been whipped three or four times, as In the case of Corbett, the civil service rules seem to consign him to the position of a bartender, that being the only place left where he can mix things up with any degree of satisfaction. And still lie is foolish enough to put up his money for another "go." A FBRIODICAI, published in the in terest of advertisers says : "There is but one way to advertise and that is hammer your name, your occupation, your business ho thoroughly into people's heads that if they walk in their sleep til ay will constantly turn their step toward your place of busi ness. Tlie home local paper is your friend. It helps to build up the com munity that supports you."

SunntorH ' Mol.ntirln, MoKnory nnd .lomm Cut no to the, Aid oT tbo Ad niliiMnitlon Wlieii the Domtment Itmiulii'il the Votltur Htniru. Washington, Feb. 7. The treaty of peace negotiated between the commis sioners of the United States and Spain at Paris was yesterday ratified by the United States sente. the vote being 57 ayes to 27 nays, or one vote more thnn the two-thirds majority necessary to secure senatorial concurrence In a treaty document. The vole was taken in executive session, and until the In junction of secrecy was raised the re sult was supposed to be private, but the vice president had no more than announced the figures before senators rushed out of every door leailng from the senate chamber, declaring that the treaty had been rutliled. No vote has been taken In the sen nte since that on the repeal of the pur chasing clause of the Sherman law that has been followed with ns close atten tion as the vole of yesterday. The anx lcty wns due not alone to the magni tude nf the (mention at Issue, but to the uncertainty which attended the matter up to the last moment. Only the select few knew how Senators McKnery of Laulslana and Jones of Nevada would vole half an hour before their votes were cast, and not even these knew when the bell rang for the executive session. In advance of the voting speeches were made by Senators Hoss, Money and Fairbanks. Senator Stewart, who had Just arrived from his successful campaign In Nevada for re-election announced Informally during this pe riod of the session that during hlsentlre trip across the Sontlnent he had not encountered one hiun who was opposed to the ratification of the traty. Senator Itoss read a brief written speech announcing his intention to sup port the treaty as In the Interest of peace. He entered somewhat Into the legal questions Involved, saying that he saw no obstacle In the way of ratifica tion from that source. Senator Money reiterated his opposition to the treaty, and made a last plea for a modifica tion of the agreement. He asserted that If the friends of the treaty had agreed to a modifying lesolutlon the vote could have been secured much sooner, and that as It would have car rled assurance of pacific Intentions on the part of this government it would have prevented the hostile conflict at Manila. Senator Teller here Interrupted the Mississippi senator and there was quite an exchange of words. Teller announc ed his belief that the opposition to the treaty were responsible for the Manila battle, and Mr. Money declared this view to be absurd. Mr. Fairbanks spoke at some length, his speech being the first he had made since the debate began. He made an appeal for unanimity of action in order that the country might present a har monious front to the outside world In dealing with so Important a question. Referring to the legislation In the early stages of the war, and Instancing the placing of $50,000,000 as an emergency fund ut the disposal of the president, he said It would be a matter for deep re gret If the same unanimity, harmony and absence of partisanship could not be made manifest at the close of the war and In the preparation of the treaty of peace. Promptly at 3 o'clock the vice presi dent Interrupted Senator Money, who was then speaking, to announce that the hour had arrived for a vote. But one amendment was offered, that pre pared by Senator Vest placing the Philippines on the same footing as Cuba In the treaty. In ths temporary absence of Mr. Vest It was presented by Mr. Gorman and promptly defeated, The vote was announced and pages were sent scurrying through the cor rldors to announce to the few senators who were not In their seats that the culminating event had arrived. The call proceeded quietly until the name of Senutor McLaurln was announced. He created the first stir by a speech In explanation of his vote for the treaty. This was the Initial break In the ranks of the opposition. Mr. McLuurin made a brief statement In explanation of his change of position, giving tlie open hostilities In Manila as the reason for It. "I am, as I have been from the first," he said, "Irrevocably opposed to the expansion of our "territory and should have voted against ratification but for the news that has come to us over the cable In the past two days.1 The announcement brought Borne of the opposition to his Bide with remon strances, but he replied to them that he could no longer see his way clear to cast his vote against the treaty. Continuing his remarks to the sen nte. Mr. McLaurln said he was not will lug to embarras this government at so ciltlcnl a time. If after the ratification the administration should fall to pur eue the proper course towards the Isl ands the fault would be that of the government, and not his. He had hardly concluded when Sen atar McKnery approached him with word of congratulation, saying that he had decided upon the same course, Mr. Jones, of Nevada, did not vot In the first roll call, but came In from the cloak room before the vote was an pounced, and by unanimous consent made a brief and feeling speech. He said that he was against expiiulsnn und if he thought the ratification of th treaty meant expunslon he would not vote for It. The events In Manila dur ing the past two or three days, In hi Judgment, were likely to do more to discourage expansion than anything that nau nappenea. After the ratification of the treaty the senate in open session took up Joint resolution offered by Mr. McRn ery, of Louisiana, declaring a policy for the Philippines, and an effort was made to adopt it, but the debate ou cupled so much time that the resolution went over. During the debate Mr. Hoar moved an amendment to the McRnery resolu lion that whatever government Is es tuhllshed In the Philippines shall be with the consent of the governed.

Waihlngton. Feb. 7. Hon. Robert P. Porter arrived In Washington Sunday night, having come directly from Ha vana, after his successful mission to General Uomez, whom he met at Ileme dlos. He submitted his report to Sec retary Cage yesterday. Aside from the successful outcome of his mission the most interesting part of Mr. Por ter's report relate to his observations as to the conditions In the Island as they exist today. From Havana to St. Domingo, near ly 00 miles," says Mr. Porter, "your commissioner went over the Buma route as he did last September. The difference, however, In the condition of the country now and then Is very markpd. In September the whole dis tance Was one scene of desolaton. There were literally no signs of life, human or animal, except at the rail way stations, which swarmed with starving humanity. Never wus there such abject misery seen as then. To day conditions are Improved. There are beggars, but of the .chronic sort. A decided change for the better is noticeable In the country Itself. Tho people are beginning to work again. The quick growing crops have been planted nnd some are ready for har vest. For ten hours In September, trav ellns on the pame road, but one yoke of oxen was seen. Today In some fields large herds of several hundred cattle greet the eye. This is the surest Blgn that Cuba is pacified." Church "It lot In liutmlo. Buffalo, N. Y., Feb. 7. A squad of police were called out yesterday to pro tect Father Martlnelll, priest at the Italian ehurch of St. Anthony of Padua, from the violence of several hundred men and women.
