Seldom has tbe secoul half of a
year opened as auspiciously in a

says the Globe-Democrat. In all
particulars tbe record of tbe first
half was encouraging. Secretary

to congress last December that tbe
deficit in tbe D?cal year which ended
on June 30, 1833, would be 112.

George Evans, former deputy state

of a trial, when he pleaded guilty to
forgery. His example is a refresh

was about $0,000,000 in excess of
those of the year which ended twelve
months .tgo. The number of busi
ness failures between January 1st
this year and June 30th and the lia
bilitie3 involved have been smaller
than in the corresponding period in
ny other year since 1881, and
making allowance for the number of
persons in trade and the amount of
money invested, the record is much
belter even than it was in 1881.

THE KAISER ASD AMERICA.
It is easy to believe that the
Kaiser may be induced to visit the
World's F'air in St. Louis in 11)03.
No monarch of a great nation has
ever come to the United States.
T :e I'.mperor of Brazil, in the clays
when Brazil had a crown-wearer,
visited this countiy more than once.
So did the King of the Sandwich
Is'ands. Heirs apparent of a few
great monaichies, like the present

and so have pretenders to great
thrones, like Don Carlos. Czars,

country to the other in Europe.

Nearly fifty naval vessels are
under construction in this countiy,
including a number for foreign
powers. Our big sbip-yr.rds arc
certain to be kept busy for a long
period of years.
It will not take the primary classes
in Manila long to learn that tbe
American dollar is worth twice as
much as tbo Mexican coin to which
the Filipinos have long been accustomed.
On tlie Oraili of Judge Martin.
"tlone before in the Uniled States,
and it is being done under safer
conditions. There is a solid financial
prosperity throughout lhe country at
the present time which was never
-exceeded in the best business eras of
"the past, ami was seldom closely ap
proached. All this is due to the fact
that the political conditions are
sound and permanent. The Ke
publican party makes no reckless
experiments in financiering, but is
governed by the lessons of experi
ence and the most enlightened judg
ment of the world. By its victory
in 180C, it defeated the last formid
able assault which will ever be made
on the gold standard. The fight will
be renewed in 1900, for tbe Demo
cratic party is bound to make one
more canvass in favor of repudiation.
This time, however, tbe Republican
party will gain a more sweeping
victory than it got in 1890, and tbe
victory will be final. No intelligent
person feels any doubt that the de
feat of tbe Democracy in 1900 in its
championship of debased money will
finish that folly as a political issue.
This is wby the volume of industrial
expansion throughout tbe Uniled
United States.
In many very important respects,
Iiiwcvcr, William II. is c law unto
himself. He is tbe most versatile
potentate whom Europe lias seen
since Napotcon I. He is the most
original monarch which any great
nation of the world has bad since
Peter the Great. No crown-wearer
since Charles V. talks and thinks in
so many languages. He can as
easily and as gracefully adapt him
self to circumstances and conditions
as Henry of Navarre. He cares less
for the prejudices and predilections
cf political prudes than any other
monarch of a great nation since
Diocletian. A weak and cowardly
regard for the traditions of his guild
would have dcterreJ every other
monarch since Bonaparte from mak
ing the proffers of the olive branch
to an avowed enemy which the
Kaiser has recently done to France.
His purpose to visit the Paris expo
sition in 1900 will undoubtedly be
carried out.
William II has good reason to be
in an especially amiable mood
toward tbe United Stales. More of
bis race are citizens of this country

On July 9th at Pound Ridge, New
York, the former home of Mrs. Jennie
Haight, deceased, a memorial service
was held for her. An article published
in the Stamford Telegram says In part:
"The services at the Pound Ri lge
church were conducted by Rev. Isaac
Brown, the pastor, who made the open
ing prayer, and Mr. Theodore Dibble
made the address. Both spoke in the
highest terms of the deceased both as a
Christian woman, a faithful guardian of
the trusts committed to her care and
her charitable nature. There were many
carriages on the East Woods urounds
showing th great interest taken by the
community in the services.
"In her will she devises that one-tenth
of her sayings shall U given to the Lord
and her relatives will faithfully carry out
the rsqnesf A portion will be given to
the church at The Dalles, of which she
was a faithful me niber, and a portion
goes to the church at East Woods from
which she took her letter to the ehnrch
in The Dalles thirteen years ago. Mrs.
Haight visited here about two years ago
and tier friend sand relatives endeavored
to persuade her to remain here but she
felt that her duties called her hack, and
th ere she settled op everything and pre
pared for the passing away she knew to
