A PRETTY PICTURE.
Imagine a Union Between
lea and England.
Amer
Tlie Preposterous Proposition of
English Theorist Xctlonsl
Elements That Would
Slot. Assimilate.
Mr. and Mrs. Will Wright, of Lyle,
came up ' on the Regulator last night.
Mr. Wright, who runs a sawmill near
that place, reports that milling business
is good this fall.
Mrs. T. J. Seufert and son, Roger, left
for Portland on the Spokane local this
morning, where the little boy is to un
dergo a course of treatment under Dr.
Dixon. For some time the little fellow
has been bard of hearing, and an opera
tion may be necessary in his case.
A writer in on English journal under
takes to show that the union of tne
United States and England into one
union, wrth one governmen t, would be
an untold blessing, and advances
number of reasons for his belief, "la
time of war," he says, "the combined
fleets would be able to defy any posst
b'.e conibination, and with coaling- sta
tions within the readiest reach they
could sweep the seas of their enemies'
shipping, and . convenient ports for
prizes would abound. As for the armies.
it is said that the United States could
put 5,UOO,OCO men on a war footing.
Add that to our own total of, say 800,-
000, which, in time of war, could be
greatly added to, we could provide a
united military force of some 6,000,000
men, and face enormous odds by vir
tue of the Incalculable resources of the
two richest nations in the world. Com
nkrcially we could almost absolutely
control the trade of the world, and be
independent of supplies from other na
tions, seeing that what the states lack
in shipping they provide in boundless
tracts of land that can furnish every-
thing that can be desired. The surplus
population of Brisain, too, would find
abundant scope in the undeveloped soil
of America. Then, in respect to size,
he new nation would present tin area
of 12,541,433 square miles (United
States, 3,470,000; Britain, 9.071,000)
more than the whole of Africa, and
more than three times the advantage of
oneness of interests, the oneness of
language, the sympathies of blood
Unship, similarity in almost every con
ceivable direction. The united nation
would be able to dominate alike the
world's councils, its trade, its doings
in fact, what the Anglo-Saxon people
said would practically be the law of
mankind."
Nothing, of course, could be more re
mote than the possibility of such a
union. However, it brings up questions
and conjectures that are most inter
esting. In the first place there would
have to be a compromise between the
two countries as to the form of govern
ment. Every one of Uncle Sam's sub
jects is a sovereign unto himself, and
nothing could be more odious to him
than to acknowledge allegiance to one
who rules by divine right. Likewise
would it be difficult to engraft in the
breast of the average Englishman that
love of independence, liberty and rev
erence for free institutions that is born
in every American. It is hard for the
Briton to understand that the strength
of a nation may lie in the unified loyal
ty of all its citizens, without, depend
ence upon any family born to the pur
ple, upon tradition, upon the glamour
that, in a monarchy, surrounds the gov
ernmental head. Hence a modification
of the two governments that would best
equalize the widely divergent condi
tions would have to be effected. Xatur- '
ally, some of the features'' of this gov
ernment would be retained, and no
doubt civil service would be one of
them, as it is essentially an offspring
of royalty. Imagine, if you can. the
prince of Wales or the duke of York
eagerly scanning the newspapers the
morning after an examination to see
if they had passed. Or, with equal
solemnity, try to picture our own Dr.
Depew in all the gorgeousness of gold
lace and knickerbockers, bowing- and
scraping around the ruler neither
president nor king-, but a portion of
both as a gentleman in waiting.
It is ridiculous to suppose that, with
all these incongruities, and with noth
ing w hatever in common Between the
two systems of government, that their
union could by any possible chance ever
be brought about. Since the 13 little
colonies dissolved from the mother
country something over 100 years ago.
this nation has made a phenomenal
growth in everything, but in no one
thing has there been a greater expan
sion than in patriotism. In a com
mensurate degree has grown the dis
like for monarchies and the trappings
of royalty.
It's a roseate picture this theorist
across the water paints, but it can
never, never be realized. Cincinnati

Custom in Vlncennes That Destroys
Mnch That Is Grcwsomc at Crave.
People in Vincennes have been wit
nessing what is called "a gay funeral,"
according to a paradoxical phrase, re
ports the London Telegraph. Mr.
Ferret, a resident in that sub
urban borough for many long years.
died recently' at the age of 80. He left
instructions in his will that the local
brass band should be engaged for hts
funeral, and that lively music was to
be played during the journey to the
graveyard. The octogenarian's rela
tives fulfilled his wishes to the letter.
In the black -bordered invitations to the
interment sent out by them they an
nounced the names of the airs to be
heard during the funeral. As the coi
tege started for the cemetery, the band
struck up the appropriate "Chant du
Depart," to the intense astonishment
of the master of ceremonies sent by the
Pompes Funebres, who knew nothing
about the last wishes of the deceased
octogenarian in the matter of music.
Then the bandsmen played a series of
polkas and mazurkas, and wound up at
the cemetery with the "Marseillaise."
After the funeral all adjourned to a
tavern, where drink was ordered in
abundance. The instrumentalists, having-
been refreshed, played more lively
music and then everybody returned
home, apparently satisfied with the
day's outing. This is the third funeral
ef the kind which has been organized in
France within the past 12 months.
HINTS ON FRUIT CANNING."
Few Thinars That the Honaewlfa
Should Remember.
In canning- fruit, remember that it in
hard and disagreeable work at beet,
and unless you can, come within sight
of its highest possibilities, "the game is
not worth the candle," Whether it is
good, bad or indifferent depends upon
your own knowledge and skill. Exclud
ing the air to prevent fermentation is
only the A B C of success. Fruit must
look as well as taste delicious, and, in
order to do this, it must retain its nat
ural flavor and appearance, and be
sweetened with- granulated sugar.
Fruit for canning must be freshly
picked, and a little under rather than
over ripe.
All berries except strawberries should
be large and firm. With these the
smaller the better. Blackberries, no
matter how fine or of what kind, are
never satisfactory and palatable.
Cherry pits add much to the flavor,
and when, removed from the fruit a
handful should be tied in a piece of net
and put in the center of each jar. Pear
seeds, should be used in the same way
if the core is removed. Cherries are
richer and handsomer colored if the sir
up is made of half currant juice.
The skins of green gage plums should
be left on and pierced with a fork be
fore they are cooked. The skins of all
other common varieties should be re
moved. If plunis and peaches are im
mersed in boiling water to loosen the
skins, only a few. should be treated at
once, and those should first be put in
a wire basket or sieve. "After remaining-
two minutes or so dip in cold war
ter and gently rub off the skins.
A silver knife should be used to shred
pineapple and pare pears and quinces.
Peaches should be put in sirup as
soon as pared, and pears and quinces
into' cold water, to prevent discolora
tion. Peaches are firmer and richer if
allowed to remain over night in the
simp before they are cooked, i-ive or
six pits
each quart
The most delicate and natural fla
vor is obtained bv cooking tne fruit
in the jars. This method also does
away with the breakage from handling,
and adds greatly to its appearance.
Pears and quinces are no exception to
this rule, but, as both arc more quick
ly c ooked tender m clear water, it is
more convenient to do so before they
are put in sirup,
All old jars should be. thoroughly
cleansed with soda and boiling water.
and the ajr-tiprhtness of every jar
should be tested with water before
they arc filled with fruit, which should
be placed in the jar as fast as jt is
prepared, and the jar filled to the neck
wjtli sirup.
A flat-bottomed kettle or an ordi
nary clothes boiler are convenient lor
cooking, and a board fitted to the bot
tom loosely and closely filled wit.h inch
auger holes obviates all danger of break
age. Put the rubber and cover in po
sition, leaving the latter loose; fill the
boiler in warm water to the neck of
the jars and boil gently until the fruit
can be easily pierced with a fork. No
definite rule for cooking can be given.
Ten minutes is usually long enough
for berries, while the time required for
arg-cr and more solid fruits depends
upon their ripeness. Experience soon
makes one expert. Take each jar out
onto a hot plate, fill to overflowing
with boiling- water, and screw down
the top. Tighten as it cooks, and in
vert to be sure that it is air-tight.
The jars should be wrapped in paper
to exclude the lignt, which is more in
jurious than one is apt to think, and
kept in a cool, dry place. The flavor
of fruit is more improved if the oxygen
is restored by removing the cover an
hour or two before it is needed.
If rich fruit is desired, the following
quantities of sugar for each pint jar
will be satisfactory, but as sugar is not
the "keeping- power,"much less, or
even none, may be used: Strawberries,
seven ounces; raspberries, four ounces;
whortleberries, four ounces; cherries.
six ounces; peaches, five ounces; Bart
lett pears, six ounces;, sour pears, eight
ounces; plums, eight ounces; quinces,
eight ounces. X. Y. Times,

They .want vegetable boots, vegetable Chicago
