H Frm our (ReguUr jCorripondent (ieneral (rood'H report as iiovernor .Genprul ot Cuba, Iiwh just beetK made to the Wnt Department. It reviewn the ndmmistration of the af fairs of the islands during the past fiscal vear, .paying attention to resources, edu cation, the judiciary, the steps taken for u new govern ment, etc. Hut the most eig nihVaat portion of the whole document contains an uncon scions arruignment of the high tariff policy of the Uni ttd States Government. He says that the present system does not favor good commer cial facilities on account of unfavorable duties on tobac co and sugar. They keep the prices up in this country and if they ure persisted in in regard toCubuitwill mean that development of Cuba will be slow if at all, as the changed conditions in com mercial relations since the time the Unite States, and she must have lower duties "if she is is to live and pros per." Comments of this kind are the best arguments that low tn i iff can have, and they a r, -a rticula rly forcible when they concern the vital wel- tare nf an inianl that our pnuaiseK and national hoik r compel us to tester and protect. The summer Uncle Sam's house-cleaning time, w h e n there is nothing else in Wash ington to distract his, .atten tion, from i.this; imperative task; During the, hot, months the annual renovation takes place, and about the first of September sees the work com pleted. This year the changes have been particularly 6weep ing, almost all the interior of the interior of the capital building being repaired and made modern. TheSupreme Court room, was about to e- merge from u chaos of plas ter, when only h few days a- go the temporary plaster ceil ing, under the new steel one, fell and hurt several women. A party of tourists under the direction of one of the Capi tol guides, got out in the nick of tinie.JOne of the movst ticklish jobs has been the putting in of a steel counter part of the plaster ceiling of Statuary Hall. This hall has peculiar acoustic properties, there being many "whisper ing galleries" that are the de light of the young married couples that make Washing ton their honev-moon Mecca. These galet if s are also prolif ic sources of income to the Capitol guides who reveal their mysteries to the uniniti ated. On account of all this there was a clause in the ceil ingbuilder's contract that the change should in no wise impair the whispering prop erties. A recent test shows the rajstic echoesstill in tact. The usual new carpets will appeur in the Senate and House the, old ones having been removed. Absolutely unique carpet designs, tho, uIwhvs in red. are luxuries that Uncle Sam fallows his legislators. The Schley -Sampson con troversy is attracting but lit tie attention notv, and every body isjetting.it drop, for a breatinng "spfll until the CiMlrt of Inqnirjr convenes at the Navy Yard, the 12th. On account of the derth of new just now, the yellow journals ar trying to keep tim. feud alive, but the public is apa thetic. . . The politics of Virginia are attracting some local atten tion, foroneof thecandidates fot lieutenant governor. Mr IVillnrd, who is furnishing the cnm"paign;"bar'l"is a bus iness man of this city and ownpr of the historic Willard InM. He gained a legal resi dence in the Old Dominion it is said for the express pur pose of getting into politics, and seems to have succeded. The Treasasur Bureau of Statistics, and the other de partments of thegovernment service, continue to receive proofs of the growing foreign trade of this country, and of the increase of cordial rela tions between this and ather na tipns. This neghbpi liness is shown particularly in re gard to the adjacent islands of the West, Indies. Ilorma tion from the Treasory De part ment shows a growing disposition on the part otthe island of Jamaica to trade with the United States, until now we have the bulk of the islands's commerce. The facts and, figures given out have an added interest begause Ja maiea is a British colony, and the data comes from the British colonial report The value of exports shows aeon stant increase from the is ignds .to the. United States and where Great Britain has utmost a third of the Jamai can exports in 1890 she gets now less than one-fifth, A pier icons taking the rest. Her im ports to the island are also decreasing steadilrin propor tion to the volume of trade while the United States gain. Another trade gain for this countrj is shown in the lat est advance sheets of Conpu- lar Reports;- obtained from the State Department. One of them shows the largest sin gle item of trade between our country and Korea is kero spne, which for the past year amounted to almost a ii)iJ ion dollars. The Americans have lately been annoyed by the importation of inferior oil into Korea, in the tins and cases in which t heir own product haH beeu importci into Japan. Orientals have no respect for unregisterei trade maiks or laws agains adulteration, so the only re dress is to employ reliable a gents and maintain a strict eurvilance over them. The importers of ktrosene other than American amounted to about $100,000; or a little more than one tenth of the American trade. THE HAGUE MIGCORKLE IMPORTERS AND WHOLESALERS -GREEA'SL!01lO,N.L.

Itesalt of a Bad Impression. Several years ago n father was visiting his sou in an eas tern college. In the evening our students dropped into he room wheie father and s.m were staying, and one of lie boys confessed with some embarrassment that he had 'skipped" a recitation that morning. "I wouldn't let a little hing like that bother me," exclaimed a certain student whom we will call John. The father of John's friend ooked at John sharply, and ook a mental estimateof his character on the basis ofthat mark. The father happened to be an official of a large railway corporation. Some years later, in the course of events, John was u candidate or a desirable position with that railway, and was in a fair way to gain it. He had made a good record after leaving college as a young railway mm, hisfrecommen dation for the position in question was high, and he seemed in every way qualifi ed. The decision rested with the father of his friend. That gentleman told his fellow -directors that hecould not consistently give the young man the place, as he had once heard him make a remark indicating nntrust- worthiness. Jahn failed to se cure the position and all be cause of a remark he made in tboughlessness. It does not help the matter to ?ry unfairness, injustice. He alone was responsible foi the impression he had given. Young People's Weekly. Cured of Chronic Diarrhuaa After 30 Years or Sufferlug. "1 suffered for thirty years with diarrhoea nnd thought 1 was past, being cured,' says John S. Hallway, of irench Camp, Miss, "1 had spent so murh time and money and suffered so much that I had given up all hopes of recove ry, I was so feeble from the effects of diarrhoea that, I could do no kind of labor, could not even travel, but by accident I was permitted to find a bottle ofChamberlains Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after taking sev end bottles I am entirely cur ed of that trouble. I am so pleased with the result that I am hnxious that it be in reach of all who suffer ns I have. For jale by Blackburn.

France is her ally and is there fore compelled to look and act pleased, Germany is indif ferent. England is unable to even show her teeth, because, as Lord-Salisbury said with grim sntiie the other day. "All her teeth are in South Africa." So . Russia is push ing cheerfully on the absorp tion of Northern Oina, is crawling up through 'the Hi malayas in England's Indian frontier nnd is closing in up on Persia, IUis not strange that England is growling. But Russia is not disturbed- And as Russia is better adap ted to control Asiatic people than is any other European power, because she is at once Occidental and Oriental, the cause of civilization and trade development will be ad vanced by her triumph, and England's discomfortnre can be viewed with equanimity. The direct cost of the war up on the South African Repub lie is huge. But it is a trifle in comparison with the many and mighty items in the indi rect bill. New York World.

Once we read about tho honors of Spanish "concen tration camps" in Cuba, ao i called Weyler a "butcher," but now the reports from British concentration cumpa in South Africa makes him seem like an angel. Tbedeath rate among the women and children iu their concentra- tion camps in South Africa is 150 per 1,000, nnd in one camp, according to a British official report, 25 per centjjof the prisoners died in three months. At that rate the Boer population wjll be ex terminated in a year, and England will have an unob- structed field for her "mission ary labors in extending "the blessings of civilization t o that country. The truth is that this si rug gle has entered a phase which was entirely absent trom it a year ago. and .which even those engaged in it would have contemplated with hor ror when hostilities fi r s t broke out. Even British sym pa timers are beginning to transfer theii sympathies to the Boer side and to ask if histor may not come to curse England as it has so lone cursed Spain. And well may they ask it. The Boer war is incontestably thegrea test tragic drama, the world has ever seen since the Amer ican Civil War, and as time passes, the prospect grows that iis ultimate consequen ces may be as disastrous to the British empire as the wars of the Netherlands were to Spain of Phillip II and the Duke of Alva.
