Office of Referee in Bankruptcy. Ed. Republican: Dear Sin Your paper has been dsignated by order of tbe U. S. District Court for tbe boutheru Division of the West eru District of Missouri, (which in chides your county) as the official pa per for put.hshiug notices in Bank rupt proceedings. The Court is now orgauized for all voluntary cases, and petitions are now being filed iu tbe Clerk's oflice at Sningfield. Attorneys bringing suit should tilo their petit ions, together wflh schedule of all property aud list of creditors, as pro vided by the act, iu duplicate, one set for the Clerk aud ihe oiher for the Referee, showing property real aud personal, nud that claimed to be ex empt under cur Stale laws; and if property owned atovc exemptions, in triplicate, the third being for the Trustee. It is best iu nM cases, to secure a speedy heating, to deposit Clerk's and Referee'!? costs with Ihe Clerk at the time of filing petition, as the Court requires rigid examina tions if costs be not deposited as re quired by law. Kycry Attorney bringing suit should provide himself with a copy of Ihe acf nud necessary attorney's blanks, and comply wflh the law slrictly. Tbe eutiro cost in each case is very light. 1 have examined Ihe blauks furnished by (icu.. D. Bar uard & 'Co. of St. Louis, aud find them good precedents. The volun tary petit ious ami seheJulcs rnentou- ed are ail that is necessary to insti tute the case, and it will receive n speedy hearing by the Referee. Il will be will to publish this notice for Ihe information of a.l concerned. Very Respectfully, Ceo. S. Rathhuu. Referee Southern Division Western District of Mo. It may be remarked in the light of recent experience that the torpedo is more dangerous iu peace than iu war Admiral Dewey opened the war and ended it with oqu-il abiiiity. His dash and his patient thoroughness arc alike to be admired. Mr. Bland save he is for cxnanslou if the people are. Mr. Bland is there fore for expansion, but perhaps not yet sufficiently awoke to the fac. Perfection is a rare thiug in this world, but Ihe United States navy iu Ihe recent war wax 'so near that degree of excellence that the differ ence is immaterial. Missouri Republicans b lieve in various kind) of expansion. They propose in the next House to have more than three of the fifteen Mis souri Representatives. Spain is afraid tbe loss of colonics reduces It to a third-rate power. In iliteraucy Spain lias long been a six th-rate power, aud ought to wake up lo (he fact, Ihe Cubau insurgents should keep quiet until they can be counted. It is the fashion in this country to con sult majorities, and no change i:i that respect is probable. Gen. Paudo has been heard from iu Mexico. The leading Spanish Geu- era's have a singular habit of leaving theirarmics iu the lurch wheu the situation becomes desperate. The humanitarian object of the war will now become promiueut aud be carried out all the better for their fieedom from military weakness aud the de-uotblug peace spirit. The port of Havana is again open to the ships of the world aud et the Spanish inhabitants arc uot hap py. A change of flags is impending that is fatal to auy further indul gence in mere rhetoric. There are hut 7550 miles of rail way iu Spain, or only 900 miles more than arc built in Missouri. The best thing that couutry cau do is to take leseous from the United Stales iu tbe aits of peace. The German inventor of lite Mau ser rifle is justified iu claiming that it ban a tendency to shoot straight even iu the bauds of ludifTerent marks men. Casualties. at Santiago prove that it is a good gun. Eveu though peace is at baud, the war tat Will continue to run for some time. But when att American licks a stamp he Is reminded that It represents a series of spleuded tic tories and tome valuable new torti tory. FORSYTH, HO., The United Slates, Great Britain aud little Denmark are the only na tions owning territory iu the arctic temperate and torrid cones. Per haps we may yet close with Den mark's ofier to sell her islands in the West Indies. DeUiuy se.vit to'be Hirudin; t"e Philippines upon tin; United Mate 8 n fairly earned trophy of ihe war. Uncle Sam must quit fihtiiiif so hard if he wii-hia lo avoid re spousibiiitcs. The .United ."slates will never know what i:s European enemies would have said in case of nu Ameri can defeat. They had their vitriolic pens ready, but it va- not that kiud of a war. The war has made trouble for one laudablj industry, and that is the making of maps. No maps of the United States is up to date unless the boundaries are lilted with appar atus for extension. For a in in accused ot peace intend cucies Mc Kiuley has made a remark ably cuergctic war President. Tic Spauiards hope they wil! never !c opposed to anot. icr such expositor of the anti-jingo spirit. Admiral Cevera comes out of the war wile more credit than any oilier mah on the Spanish side. He resell ep an Amerlciu who led a fwrlorn hope, and weut him self into an un dertaking almost as risky. Some of our ships arc still picking up gunboats aud war material i t Philippine ports where the protocol cau not reach them for several days There is lit lie danger, however, of auy further serious lighting. The annexation of Hawaii was not a radical form ot expansion, yet only one of fourteen Democaris iu Congress from Missouri voted for it. One-tenth ot Ihe whole negative vote iu I lie House came from this Bourbon-bedeviled stale. The. iiisiirgeitis in t'ult.-t and the Philippines have a ehuiiee to show that they were li;liiitig lor freedom and not pi ini.-irii y lor ollicc. Tin ' would be extremely f".oiitli to lose sight of the fact that I hey owe their liberation to 1 lie United Mates. Senator Jours, of Arkansas, be lieve!' that the fruits of .he war ought lo be restricted to the origin al purpose ot freeing Cuba, Has Ihe Senaiar never h nrd of removing liic limit after the game was iu wook iug order. The Democrats ot .Missouri say iu their platform that a o.iling t-tuliou aud harbor iu the Philippines will be enough, aud any thing more too much Expansion suits Ihe llurbous, pro vided il is sullicicntly small and in significant. The Merchants' Association of New York has sent to President Mc Kiuicy a letter saing: "By your calmuess, your patience amid iiiot exciting and exacliug circumstances your strong apparent determination to do fully aud well everything which would help Ihe cause of thin couutry, you have becu an inspiration, uot only lo the troops in the field and the men on the ships, but to the citi- ueus win; have remained rtt home watching your course daily" The tribute is well eari.cd nud expressed with discrimination. Unquestlanably the Loudon Times will prove to be correct in its predic tion that "Cuba twenty years hence willbe a prosperous and tranquil is land," a few years will be required to undo the distructive work of Hpaiu's barbarous rule, but the change will cooii be apparent. Tran quility is what CuVi needs, and this she will get tL rough her American connexions. It is estimated that ovor 500.000 persons died in Cuba between the begluulug of the rebell ion early iu 1895 and the opening of the war betweeu the United States aud Spain. This destruction has now ended, nud the island will have a chaurc lo recuperate. The probabll' ity ts that within a doSen years Cu has population, which is now put at 1.000,000, will be up to tho ,000,000 mark. Iu several very important resbects Dewey resembles Grant, lie is or iginal aud audacious. Nobody ever heard him grumbling about any in adequacy of means at his command or tbe character of the task to which he Is assigned. . He does his Work promptly and cheerfully With tbe forces at hit disposal. He does It ao thoroughly that it will never have to be done over again by him or any body else. Dewey, will, In bistofVi bato tbe primacy nmOBg the fighters THURSDAY. -AUGUST, 25, of the Spanish war which Grant had anioug those of the war of secession. The contest for second aud third plare among Ihe great personalities of the war of 1898 may be keen, but the Hist p ace belougs lo Dewev. It Is an odd circumstance (hat Ihe first aud the last battle iu the war which was started about Cuba took place ou the opposite side of "he globe from that island. Kich battle, moreover, was a glorious victory. Tha real naval hero of the war is Dewey aud not Sampson or Schley. These, of course, as well as the com manders ol several of Ihe other shi,is under them have wou deserved fame but the naval oilicer of the Jlispauo- Americau war of 1898 who will be best rciu.iiiibered iu 1998 and 2098 is Dewey. - His victories nlao will have greater iuliucnee on the countries political future than will those of the other naval commanders. Upon these victories American empire in tha Pacific ill depend. Thi victory of may 1 made Hawaii's muiexatiou in the recent session of Congress certain. The victory of Augut 18 siippieiiientidg thai of May 1, will give us the whole of the Philippines, provide us with important interests in Asia aud place us iu the list of the great world . powers.
