PUB The Boise Capital News makes the following very sensible comment on the present hysterical sympathy which is being shown for Japan In its war with Russia: One of the curious features of the war is the ease with which English statesmen and the English press have controlled public opinion in the United States, converting a friendship that reaches back to the Revolution and through our Civil war Into a hatred of Russia. During our Civil wnr when the English government and press were arrayed against us; when she permitted the Confederates to build war vessels to destroy our commerce, Russia, to show her sympathy nnd friendship, sent her fleet here and tendered it to Lincoln. It was that act which prevented England from recognising the Confederacy. Now we turn against her, applaud Japan's treachery DAYS. FORTY FOR FAREWELL grains of salt. As there are none but Russians left in the town, of what use would water tie, anyway?

CLARK, Manager Bar- nard's recommendation, and there Is little doubt that Canada will do the same through its representative. Congress has appropriated $100,000 for America's share in the erection of these monuments, and Canada the same amount It Is probable, .however, that an Increase of appropriation will be necessary. Two more Ainericnn warships got into a mix-u- p off the Cuban coast yesterday apd as the result both will have to go Into the docks for repairs. The ocean doesn't seem to be large enough for some of the American commanders to maneuver their boats In without hitting something. Yesterday's accident Is a reminder of the way the Russians have been putting their warships out of commission at Port Arthur. President Roosevelt and Czar Nicholas might very aptly exchange messages of condolence. So It seems thnt the assertion that Grover Cleveland while president entertained a gentleman of color In the White House Is a lie pure and simple. Cleveland has passed over many charges against him without notice, but he hns taken the trouble to make personal and plain denlnl of the negro entertainment calumny. He objects to being put In the Roosevelt class In this respect. Can a Republican administration be trusted to handle the enormous appropriations necessary In the con- struction of the Panama canal? Let the conscientious American voters look at the postofllce department and of the exports from the United States In 1903 went to British territory, and practically one-thiof the Imports Into the United States came from British territory.

Both England and the United States, when it comes to grabbing territory, can give Russia cards and spades, and then beat her all to pieces at the game. Ha American patriotism got to such a low standard that what Is virtue for Itself becomes a crime for other nations? Or having experienced the benefit of grabbing.
