OUR COUNTRY : First, Last and Forever.
As a dispenser of patronage in this
county, County Treasuror Davis
knows neither Democrat nor llepubli
can. The applicant, however, must
be of the Davis brand of patriots.
Zinc and lead ore in Missouri and
Kansas has reached an output of $300
000 a weok, or over $15,000,000 a year.
The Klondike nt our doors is far more
valuable than that in the dreary
wastes of the Arctic region.
Thrrh are indications that the
Democratic county convention will
adopt a platform with an anti-trust
plank as the leading issue. It should
go farther and tell the people what
that party did to down the trusts
with the presidency for eight years.
Mahanoy City authorities will
start a crusade against bad pave
ments, and if they are not repaired
within the time specified the borough
will make the repairs. Similar action
is necessary in this town. Burgess
Tabor did good work last year in this
respect, and he should follow it up
now that the weather is favorable.
It is reported that postmasters of
the United States will be required by
the department to wear a uniform
hereafter, consisting of light blue
trousers with red braid running down
V, the legs, a white blouse with gold
shoulder straps and a skull cap with
a silver star in front. 1 n behalf of
the local force we herewith enter our
objections.
Thkrk are indications of another
clash between the silver and gold
wings of the Demooracy in this
county, 'and it would not surprise
those on the inside to record another
knock-out for the Bryanltcs. The
last county convention refused to en
dorse the Chicago platform, and if
the result of the meeting of the
Standing Committee on Saturday
can be taken as a criterion the rabid
Bryanites will receive another set
back in the convention on July 10.
There are already threats, in the
event of a milk-and-water platform,
of an independent ticket in the field,
supporting the Bryan dogmas.
Thk Republican Mayor of Heading
has inaugurated a crusade against
the proprietors of pool rooms who
keep their places open on Sunday, in
violation of the law. This action is
taken on complaint made by the
Ministerial Association. The atten
tion of Chief Burgess Tabor Is called
to similar violations in this town, and
he cannot offer the plea that he has
no knowledge of such violations,
Pedestrians in passing these places
on Sunday eyenings hear the click of
the ivory balls, and. In some instances
the law is violated so openly that the
blinds are not even drawn. The Bur
gess is supposed to enforce the or
dinance.
Thk "father of Nebraska Popu
Usui," Lucien Stebbins, calls Bryan a
"political pirate" and ex-Senator
Allen "a political assassin." These
characterizations are rather harsh,
but they show that there is a pretty
strong feeling growing up against
Bryan in one element of his support
ers of 1890. The Populists are turn
ing against him, and against all the
Popnlist bosses, like-Allen and Mar
ion Butler, who are still on Bryan's
eide. As Bryan himself is a Populist
rather than a Demoarat, this defec
tion is somewhat serious. There is
still a chance that the Democrats will
b compelled to put up Bryan in
1900. That 0,500,000 votes, although
far behind the number obtained by
MeKiuley, gave Bryan a certain pres
tige1, and a the Democrats wilt up
parenty be forced to declare for free
silver andagainst expansion in 1000,
lie is as good a man to lead them to
the defeat whicli Is certain to coma to
them as they could find. Tills time,
however, the Democracy will have to
"go it alone," in the canvass. The
great bulk of tho Populists will un
doubtedly put up a ticket of their
own next year.

OPPOSING ARBITRATION.
I'owoni of tho Triple Alllunco Atralnst
America nud Himlund,
London, May 22. The Dally News
publishes a dispatch from The Haguo,
supposed to be inspired by William
T. Stead, editor of the Iteviow of Ro
vlews, which is in part as follows:
"Regarding arbitration the personal
position of the delegate seems to bo
this: Germany and the other two
powers of the triple alliance are en
tirely against It, and Turkey follows
in their wake. Great Britain and the
United States aro entirely In favor of
it. Prof. Von Stengel, of the German
delegation, said today: 'Arbitration is
impracticable when two nations are di
vided by a vita issue, while in less
Important questions Jt exists already.'
"France is hesitating, ami will prob
ably agree with Russia. Several .dele
gates confess that they cams to the
conference unprepared, and have al
ready learned much,"

THE PHILIPPINES CROPS
l'lio Inlands Do Not I'rortuco 'Food
Suniolcut For tlio Untlvon.
Washington, May 22. A report on
tho plant products . of the Philippine
islands issued by tho agricultural de
partment Is authority for tho state
ment that the Philippines, although an
agricultural country, do not produce
enough food for the consumtlon of Its
Inhabitants. In order to supply tho
deficiency it Is the custom to draw
upon other rice producing countries,
notably tho French colony of Cochin
China. No explanation of this condi
tion Is offorod, the report dealing ex
clusively with tho agricultural re
sources of tho islands as thoy now
exist.
Ono of the most importnnt food pro
ducts of the Islands is rlco, which
forms tho stnple' food of not only tho
native population, but also of tho
numerous Chinese Inhabitants. More
than a hundred varlotles are grown,
and by planting alternately an early
and a late variety two crops a year can
bo secured. The ordinary price of
rice in the husk is from 60 to C5 cents
per bushel, while shelled rice brings
from 90 to 95 cents por bushel. Tho
annual production of this commodity
Is about 30,000,000 bushels, an amount
far below the actual requirements of
the population, even when supple
mented by maize, sweet potatoes, ba
nanas and other native fruits and
tubers. In some years the quantity of
rice imported into Manila from Sai
gon has exceeded 3,200,000 bushels.
With a value of nearly $2,000,000.

Ncnr nt Ilnnrt.
Buffalo, May 22. Everything was
quiet along tho docks yesterday, and
few of tho striking grain scoopers and
freight handlers wore to be seen in tho
neighborhood of their respective head
quarters. President Keefe, of tho International
'Longshoremen's association, who ar
rived in town shortly after Saturday
midnight, held several conforenceswlth
tho strikers' committees, but at a late
hour last night ho was unable to glvo
an expression of opinion as .to what
the outcome of these conferences would
be. Mr. Keefe Bald that ho would not
be surprised if the men wero all back
to work within tho next 48 hours, pro
viding that the contractors lived up to
the concessions made to them abolish
ing all the abuses complained of with
the exception of the abrogation of the
contracts.
So far as tho freight handlers are
concerned, their differences aro prac
tically ended, and the men will prob
ably return to work at once. Tho
scoopers have also been advised to do
likewise, and the majority of them are
In favor of taking Bishop Qulgley's
advice. Some of their leaders talked
of making Individual contracts for the
unloading of vessels and working ele
vators, but this was declared to bo
impracticable and Impossible by some
of the most prominent elevator pro

A WEST VIRGINIA CLASH.
fiovornor Atktnnon nnd Ohio County
Tiidlclnry nt Odds.
Wheeling, W. Va.. May 20. There is
nn interesting clash between the Ohio
county Judiciary and tho chief execu
tive of the state, Governor Atkinson,
Two years ago William Eaton was
tried and sentenced to servo ten yeara
for burning an over Insured stock of
goods 'hero. It was known at the time
that he was merely tho tool of a dan
gerous gang of firebugs who mado Chi
cago their headquarters, nnd the con
viction of Eaton was received with
satisfaction by Insurance people
throughout tho central west, Eaton's
attorneys havo made several futile at
tempts to secure his release, but the
last attempt, made before Governor
Atkinson, seems to bear some promise,
for the governor wroto to the criminal
court officials here giving notice that
he would pardon Eaton unless tho
moro culpable persons in tho conspir
acy wero brought to tho bar of Justice.
As a result a special grand Jury was
called yesterday and Eaton went be
fore that body and turned Informor,
implicating Frederick Schmidt, alias
Smith, and Cowie, alias Gordon, both
of Chicago. Evidently tho grand Jury
did not placo any faith in Eaton's tes
timony, for it promptly brought in a
report in which it found threo true
bills against Eaton for perjury, and
found no true bills in the cases of
Schmidt and Cowio. In addition, tho
grand Jury addressed a strong letter
to tho governor, protesting against
his proposed pardon of Eaton, whom It
unanimously believed to bo guilty. The
case is exciting great interest and the
insurance peoplo nro particularly
Worked up.
