As scon as the strtkinR cal miners begin to use intimidation and violence, the sympathies of the public will case to be theirs. The Republicans will probably remain unterrlPed. notwithstanding the skulls and crussbones displayed on the ban ners of the riffraff of Cuba. It is too bad that the recount of the Seattle census was not deferred until the arrival of the transport Lawton with her overflow cargo of stranded Nomers. The raising to the surface of the un derflow of the Gila river, for the benefit of the Fima Indians. Is another instance of the awful imperialism of our government ' For far-reaching effect, the hurricane which devastated Galveston has proba bly never been surpassed by any meteorological disturbance. Reports of serious damage to shipping In the North Atlantic, by the tail end of the game storm, continue to come In. Despite Pryan's lurid pictures of our extensive imperial ambitions, we are evidently on friendly terms with Mex ico, our next-door neighbor. " Such an Inference might be drawn, at any rate, from the $30,000 appropriation of the Mexican congress for the Galveston suf ferer. The officers of the hospital ship So lace evidently thought they deserved a little solace themselves. If the amount of loot they brought away from Tien Tsin can be taken as any criterion. The customs authorities should allow them to solace themselves by paying duty on the stolen goods ,ln their possession or by surrendering them to the gov ernment. AMERICAN UNGULATES.

" '. The mule Is on of the greatest In ventions cf man and wisest dispensa tions of Providence. The fame of more than one great general has depen led upon the eifidcncy of the army mule, whose place Is with the supply train, no less than upon the more urlst cratlc horse, bestridden by the dash Intr, slashing cavalryman. It matters not what new fanglod machines containing the alleged power of self-propulsion are Invented and the attributing of self-motion to them Is no loss of an Invention the horse and the mule will never be superseded by .hem, for army uses at any rote. The world Is experiencing the truth of that claim right now; there is a large and urgent demand for horses and mules, largely for army purposes, and It is to Ameri ca all turn for the supply. Great Ftrit aln has already called upon us large ly for mules for her baggage wagons In use In South Africa, and the necessity for mere rapid transit than is possible to men on foot Is so great in that wllil, rough and extensive country that horses have been called for In unusual iiiantiUej, and our Western and South western prairies supplied them In abundance. Uorjes are also In d--titand for the Philippines and China, and mules, for Cuba and Porto Rico, the latter, however, for peaceful agri cultural purposes though. Indeed, the mule was a fighting contingent In ths Cuban war with Spain In the absence of the horse. It Is not so very long ago that West ern horses were almost a drug on the market, and there were great herds of them in some parts of the land "run ning to waste." shjt by "sportsmen" for fun, or, like the bison, killed for their hides. There is no longer ned for this wasteful slaughter. Horses are horses now, and muUs are mules. Automo biles or bicycles cannot fill their places for the work required, and America has the call for supplies. For the rough work to be done there Is the sturdy, hardy stock of humble origin, lacking a recorded pedigree, no doubt, but en dowed with speed and endurance, while for fine work the "Blue Grass region" furnishes animals that delight the soul of man. This country now has the opportunity to supply the world with mounts, and the opportunity is not likely to be lost. "I had a running sore on my leg for seven years." writes Mrs. Jas. Forest, cf Cheppewa Falls, Wis., "and spent hundreds cf dollar In trvlnv n it healed. Two boxes of Banner Salve entirely cured it." CHAS. ROGERS. Druggist Most people who try to ride the wheel of fortune, manage to puncture the tire before they get very far. A good many consumptives would be cured and the worst cases comforted and relieved by using Foley's Honey and Tar. Suggest it to those afflict ed. Tou should do this as a friend. CHAS.
