(NK of the facts which lms a (lis couraging effect on the leaders of tho Democratic purty is the great increase in industrial activity in tho AVest. Everybody, Democrat as well as Ite publican, who tells anything nowa days about the social conditions in the Western states mentions tho prosperity which is diffused through all of them. Business is more active in all of them than was ever known before. July is more than half over tho year is more than half gone. Push ing merchants have had a successful season. They have encroached upon the territory of the man who was "known to everybody and did not need to advertise." Now is the time -when the pushing merchant looks back over a season of gradual ad' vance the slow and conservative man can see where he lost here and there from following a wrong policy. The progressive man is still enthusi astic, and while he has not subsided during the hot weather, he is plann ing for greater things in the fall. At last the Supremo Court has reached a decision in the Erie Soldiers' Home case. It has been the custom for the managers of the Home to take from the inmates all the money they received as pensions, in excess of $4 per month. Some of the old soldiers protested and brought suit to recover the money so with held from them. The Supreme Court decides that when the old soldiers enter the Home as inmates they agree to abide by the rules of the institu tion, and one of the rules being to re quire pensioners to turn over to the juonngers a certain proportion of their pensions, they will have to comply. Alger's Resignation. The people of the United States were startled by news that Secretary Alger had placed his resignation in the hands of the President. Only a few days ago Gen. Alger was re ported as saying that; he would not resign his position until after the first ot--fche year. The pressure for his resignation has been so great that he was probably unable to longer resist, President McKinley, despite tho severe attacks of the critics of the administration of the War Depart ment, has Btood solidly behind its chief, and, as far as known, has neyer requested or hinted that he should re sign. Secretary Alger in the conduct of the war with Spain had a most diffi cult task to perform. Tho country was suddenly plunged Into war with out time for proper preparation, and the work of mobilizing, equipping and feeding an army of about 275,000 men, -which had been put into the field in a few months' time, required a tremendous amount of detail Whether any one else under the cir cumstances could have done better is only problematical.- It is always easier for the spectators on the bleachers to play a game of base ball correctly than it is for the men in the field who have been employed for that purpose. Secretary Alger's resignation will please those who have felt that the President in retaining him in his Cabinet was carrying a load which would, if not gotten rid of, result in disaster to his Administration and would seriously affeot his chances for re-election next year. The Demo cracy, on the other hand, will be de prived of a large amount of ammuni tion, as they fully expected to make Algorism one of the issues in the coining Presidential campaign. Speculation will now be rife as to the successor of Secretary Alger. Wnoever it may be he will find that lie will have no easy row to hoe, and that tho position will be anything 3ut a bed of roses. In the conduct of nny war those in official or executive positions have always been the sub ject of assault, not only on account "Woman's Work ts Never Done. ' The constant care causes sleeplessness, toss of appetite, extreme nervousness, and thai tired feeling. But a 'wonderful hange comes when Hood" s Sarsapsrilla Is taken.

While the Bullfinch was running at her full speed of 30 knots, the con necting rod of the starboard engine broke, and striking the cylinder knock ed off Its end.

Lamborton and Flag Lieutenant T. M. Brumby, of tho United States cruisor Olympla, landod bore yesterday to ro turn Thursday's visits to tho admiral and to call officially upon tho governor of Ktistmland, Count Goess. Tho American officers also called upon tho mayor of Trieste. Tho United States minister to Austria-Hungary, Mr. Addison C. Harris, gave a banquet last night at the Hotel de la Vllle, In honorof Admiral Dewey, After a toast to President McKinley had been drunk, Mr. Harris proposed the health of Admijal Dewey, who, In reply, said simply: "I thank you sin cerely nnd drink to your good healtn." Captain Fass responded to tuo toast, The American Navy." Mr. Harris then proposed "Tho captain and crow or the oiympia, and renuested Ad miral Dewoy to relate something of the battle of Manila. Tho admiral ro- plled: "I only know that, havlnu nsked tho steward for something to drink, ho gave mo lukewarm, weak coffee, which made me feel quite sick, but my flag lieutenant kopt the record and I in vite him to speak." Flag Lieutenant Brumby said: "I was a midshipman under Admiral Dowoy and he taught me not to talk, so I will only say Dewey did It." Admiral Dewey rose again and said: "You ask me about tho guns and tho superiority of our firing. We fired ten shots a minute with our five inch guns against three shots a minute. I lound at Manila no more neutral flac than the Austrirfn." At this point Mr. Harris interposed saying: "Austria Is sincerely friendly to the United States." Admiral Dewey then, addressing him self to the Olympla's chief engineer, said that he had contributed to tho success of the ship in entering tho Hay of Manila by admirable steaming. THE NEW WAR SECRETARY. Oonoral Oroono Not tho President's Cbotco, Hut Sir. Plntt Is Sntlsflod. Washington, July 22. The name of the successor to General Alger as sec retary of war may be announced today. The president has made his selection, and it is understood that Ellhu Hoot, of New York, Is the choice. The ques tion of the appointment of a successor to Secrotary Alger was tho subject of a conference last night at tho White House between tho president and Sen ator Thomas C. Piatt, of New York, who came over on a lato train. Tho con ference lasted about an hour, and afterward Mr. Piatt said that tho president has about decided upon tho person to whom ho will tender the po sition and that an announcement of his name will be made very soon, prob ably today. Tho senator was non-communicative as to who the appointee probably will be, saying that he did not feel at liber ty to talk of what passod at tho con ference. Tho senator spoke to the president of the fitness of General Francis V. Greene for tho war port folio, whom, 14 said, was his choice for the position, but it is understood that General Greene Is not the presi dents choice. A good understanding, however, exists between the president and the senator regarding tho secre taryship, notwithstanding General Greene was the senator's first choice, as Senator Piatt said in Bpeaklng of tho prospective appointment that "We did not disagree as to the man for the position." Secretary Alger has abandoned the intention he entertained of quitting as soon as Mr. Melklejohn arrived, and has concluded to discharge all of tho duties as secretary of war until the dato set for his resignation, Aug. 1.

It lias already become, the National Disease, Are we to become a nation of Catarrhites? It looks like it. The Aboriginal Indians are said not to have known the disease.
