Tue Evening News says ‘‘the Democrats of Western Kentucky ere willing to give the election bill a fair trial.’’ Exactly so. But will the News please tell us what it means by the word ‘‘fair?'? It’s a new one in Democratic lingo. Sreakine of the County Election Commissioners, the Evening News says, “Men of the highest character for integrity and fairness have beer chosen in every instance’? The News is Goebelized, all right enough.

Farther- more Admiral Dewey had to answer all these questions alone. His oaly communications with the government at Washington have been to state facts, to recount important events, to relate history. Advice he could not ask, nor get. He had a treacherous enemy to deal, with, treacherous allies to restrain and treacherous friends to watch, But he bas performed bis trying duties with consummate skill and unparalleled success. A world is amazed at his wisdom and discre- tion, and his country is proud of his patriotism, pxoud of his great achievements, and has placed the namé of Dewey at the head of its long list of heroes, the stories of whose deeds will live as long as the repub lic endures or patriotism continues to be a virtue. IS ANDREE DEAD, The latrepid Explorer's Balloon Not Heard From But Once in Thirteen Months, London, Aug. 20—A cable dis- patch says the friends of Herr An- dree, the intrepid explorer, have given him up for dead. Thirteen months ago he set out on his perilous journey from Spitzbergen to the North Pole ina balloon, expecting to return in two months. One pigeon returned in 4 few days, telling of bis safe aerial voyage, and. saying other messages would be sent. But naught else has ever come from Prof. Andree, ‘and he is now mourned as dead. PENSION LIST INCREASES. Nearly Thirteea Thousand More Than There Were in 1897. Washington, Aug. 20.—The an- pual report of Commissioner of Pen- sions H, Clay Evans, will show that at the close of the fiscal year 1898, there were 93,714 pensioners on the roll of the bureau, This was a net increase of 12,960 over the previous year. ‘There were dropped from the rolls during the year on account of deaths 33,691, and for remarriage and other causes 12,960 pensions were discontinued. which Mr. McCreary was for severa! terms a member of the house fon | relations committee, therefore would seem to be qualified for the peace commission work, ‘Che former congressman from Blue Gi state denies the rumor, however, says emphativally that not a word in- timating his probable — appoint- ment passed between him and the president. Mr. McCreary talked entertaining- however, of the administration's y and the foreign relations of hited States, id he: The provisions of the peace pro- tocol. seri to be unanimously in- dorsed by the people of the Unites States. ‘The people are also unapi- mous and enthusiastic in their sd- wiration for the bravery and splen- did achievements of our army and navy. “It was expected that Spain would be required to relinquish all claim to Cuba, and it is a logical result of the war that Porto Rico aud other islands in the West Indies should be ceded to the United States. “Tam not infavor of giving up ce over which our flag floats provided in the protocol that the United States shall occupy and hold the city, bay and harbor of Manila pending the determination of the control, disposition and govern- ment of the Philippines. We must presetye and hold forever that which Dewey and his brave men so gallant- D, ‘The problem of the Philippines is not difficult if we consider it from a purely patriotic and American stad point, Progress, wealth, population and the demands of asgriculture, in dastrics and manufacture change the situation. While it was proper for our people to oppose territorial ex- pansion for many years, excep where the territory was contiguous, con- ditions have changed. ‘The days of our isolation are over. To preserve our leadership. smong aations, we must be controlled by great events and the denands” of times. China and Japan and the soutleast- ern provinces of Asia constitute the great commercial theatre of the future, and present attractive marke ets for our agricultural, jndustrial and mechanical products. They are logically our customers and allies in trade, for they are nearer to us than to England, Germany or France. “The war andthe demands of commerce have given us the Hawaii- an islands by annexation. It re mains to be seen how we will utilize and appreciate these important quisitions. nr great navy will h to be supplied with coaling stations and Hawaii and the Philippines will have to be used, “For the benefit of our navy and for the benefit of commerce and trade the Nicaragua cana! should be built, but the United States ehould buy the land through which itis built and own aad operate the canal independ. ently and exclusively. All trade routes from our country for steam vessels pass Cuba and Porto Rico in goiog to the Nicaragua canal. ‘The construction of the Suez canal de- \stroyed the equilibrium of commerce and benefited England apd remote nations. The United States can ad- just this equilibrium and benefit our people by the construction of the Wicketess egnal.’? ly the INDIGNANT REPUBLICANS, They Are Incensed Gyer the Ac« tion of State Election Commissioners, Frankfort, Aug. 80.—-The list of county election commissioners as mailed by the state commissioners, has created the greatest indignation among republicans, gold democrats and populists. Many leading silv ites do not hesitate to say the state commissioners overdid the thing in shutting the republicans out of rep resentation in 22 out of 119 counties, and predict several contested election cases in the next congress and prob ably other unpleasant complica- tions. It is rumored here Commissiover Ellis is not altogether in sympathy with the high-handed and arbitrary course of the two other commission. ers ‘This is said to account for his absence from the meetings, and it is even intimate] he would like to retire from the board, but both of these stories lack verification. ‘The war department is not finding many volunteer regiments that want to be mustered out, and may have to cut down the army by arbitrary or- der, California democrats declare them- selves ‘opposed to the surrender to Spain of any of the territory that has been acquired by American valor,”’ slthough at the same time opposing SOCIETY NOTES.

Deportment of the summer girl at fashionable summer resorts —Ad- vice of a knowing matron : With the advent of summer comes the ever sweet and bewitching “Sur mer Girl."’ Then it is the watering places and fashionable summer re- sorts sre overflowing with idle pleas- ure seekers, the feminine portion ranging in age from the charming bud of sweet sixteen and the some- what passe belle of thre seasons, to the withered acrimonious gossip. Al- though the summer resort is not the only abode of the inveterate gossip, as a general rule it t# here she is in her greatest element. For bere the restraints of social life are somewhat laid aside, and mind and body are reluxed from the strain of business worries and the care of every day life. . Here nature has been lavishly en= dowed with all that is beautiful and pleasing to the eye. The blue ex- panse of the heavens seems deeper, the scent of the {lowers sweeter, and the carol of birds more musical than elsewhere. Then comes the delightful picnics and excursions with a jolly party of pleasure seekers, ang the trips across the lake by moonlight.
