He said, in part: Now that victory has placed the fate of 12,600,000 human beings in the hands of @ conquering nation, with what right does a spirit of criticism which derives its in- spiration from conditions that have ceased, stamp wth the word ‘imperlalism’ the mag- nantmity of this republic in extending the sheltering wings of its protection over those whom the war has Mberated from oppres- sion and misery? “What now will our national legislators do with the territories ceded by Spain to the United States? Will they restore them to the vengeance of the vanquished? Will they leave them to the occupation and par- tition of other powers? Will they abandon them to their own inexperience and inter- nal discord?

From the St. Loais Globe-Demo: Nowad: nearly all high-s teleg raphers cribe their mes direct upon a typewriter. It has been found that the noise made by the instrument greatly interferes with the reading of the “Morse. This difiiculty has been overcome by the in- vention of a novel form of secret sounder which is simply a key and sounder mount ed in an ordinary pocket watch case. Al- though smail in size, and convenient for transportation, this instrument possesses all the practical operative qualities required by the telegrapher in such an apparatus. The sound it transmits can be adjusted in- stantly, from the loud click of the ordinary telegraph sounder down to a tick so neariy inaudible that the instrument has to be hela in contact with the ear when the signals are to be read. The outfit includes a soft, fiexible headband of mohair, which enables the watch to be attached to the ear for se- cret Work, or for employment in locations so noisy that the click of the ordinary sounder would be drowned. its silk conducting cord, equipped with suitable ter- minals, it can be readily attached to or re- moved from a telegraph line. In brokers’ offices, where secrecy of telegraphic trans mission is of the highest importance, this appliance does the work in silence and de- fies eavesdropping. For military operations the instrument can be used with the field telegraph, in the tent or unon outpost duty, without fear of giving information to lurking spies, or betraying the position to the enemy. ~The outfit complete weighs only four and one-half ounces, and can be carried in the yest pocket. —-———+e-_____ Foreigner—And why ees eet zat you Americains have what you cali ze Thanks- giving?
