feeling in reference 10 Spain and 80 extend the
idea that this revolutionary enterprise for
Cuban independence is exhausted.
This opinion. however. has been frequently
repeated from the Hobbies of the State Depart
ment for the last three or four years,
during which period some sixty or seventy
thousand Spanish troops have been sacrificed
in suppressing the Cuban insurgents; and still
they are not suppressed. But assuming that
the rebellion in the island is virtually extin-
guished, the President, in his December Mes
sage to the two houses of Congress, may still,
in our relations with Spain and Cuba, find
abundant matter for some reasonable and
generally desired recommendations. For in
stance, we want an end to this Spanish
espionage over our citizens at home and in
Cuba, we want further securities than are
now given under the Spanish laws and au-
thorities for the lives and property of our
citizens in the island, and something in the
way of reparation for the wrongs suffered by
our citizens there. particularly during the last
four years. In the next place African slavery
in Cuba and the African slave trade to say
nothing of the coOlie traffic with the island,
have become public matters, concerning which
the President Of the United States, in the
cause of modern civilization, may properly
urge a definite settlement with Spain. The
idea which was so extensively entertained
in the public mind of the United States of the
feasibility and expediency of purchasing Cuba,
even at an outlay Of hundred millions of
dollars, has been displaced by the conviction
that our absorption Of the island, without
money and without price, is but question Of
time, and that we can await the ripening and
falling of the fruit into our possession.
But still upon the questions we have indi-
Gated there are ample materials for o new and
bold departure in the Presidents Message on
our relations with Spain and Cuba, not for
getting the embarrassments of our trade with
the island. Nor are we without the expecta-
ton of some emphatic propositions from
General Grant in the line suggested, and for
this reason, among others, do we anticipate
such propositions namely, that as the ''mas-
terly inactivity policy of Mr. Secretary Fish
has settled nothing and satisfied nobody,
General Grant must be convinced that his
administration can lose nothing and may gain
much in abandoning the timid, temporizing
counsels of Mr.. Fish, even though the first
result may be his retirement from the public
service Indeed, assuming that General Grant
will be reelected for another term, we think
that Mr.. Fish will retire and should retire, in
order to give the President an opportunity for
the reconstruction of his Cabinet on the 4th of
March, and for a new departure in our foreign
relations

AProposition-stock on Greeley.

Mr.. A. Waddle, OF Leetonia, Colum-
biana county Of this State, who has
been travelling through the western
portion OF Pennsylvania, through
Knox, Ashland, Holmes, Columbisna,
Summit, Stark and the counties along
the river for the past few months says
that Notwithstanding reports Of the
Radical papers Of defections OF Demo
crats, he has not found q Democrat in
his travels since the nomination at
Baltimore but what will support the
regular ticket, and, on the contrary, be
finds that nearly all Of the original
Republicans are for Greeley. The
politicians Of to-day and office-holders
are for Grant, but the people are for
the farmer Of Chappaqus.
Mr.. Waddle makes proposition TO
the Grant men TO back up their opin'

PITHY POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS

Reform and retrenchment-down
with the thieves and up with honest
men, is the watchword OF the Greeley
ties.
ITO reunite the people Of this coun>
try heart and soul is what this move
ment tends to, says Greeley.
"For one Democrat in this State
who will vote for Grant, ten Radicals
will vote for Greeley" says a Aenia,
Ohio, paper.
Senator Logan is said to receive fifty
dollars each for his political speeches.
Money seems to be no object to the op.
position.
Of the thirty.four State officers which
the Radical party has had in New
York State, seventeen are out against
Grant.
The last Congress appropriated S5O,-
600 for the expenses Of the White
House, making Grants salary this
year $4,000
Twenty-one tons OF Grant campaign
documents have already been sent
through the mails. They reckon on
two tons 10 q convert, and won't get

said OF Grant year ago. HE is not

He went on to speak OF the bad man
sgement Of affairs under the present
Administration. He said there was a
Senatorial ring that combined with the
President for their own selfish purposes
and against the good OF the country.
He said that large sums were upjustly
paid out; that one-fourth Of the revenue
of the United States was consumed by
the officials in connection with it. A
revenue of 1888, 100000 was collected
last year, and one.fourth, according to
Grants funds, had been absorbed in
the collection. The people were 80 at
tached to the Republican party that
they forgot to take any extreme action,
but they had been offered to come out
and separate themselves from the ADJ
ministration that permitted this abuse.
The speaker referred to the tendency
toward military despotism, and said
when Gov. Oglesby said he would sus-
tain the Administration in sending
troops to Chicago, as it had once done,
he stated that be would break down the
Constitution, which, if he was elected
Governor he would be sworn to support.
He warned them that they must protect
their own rights. The officers were
the servants OF the people, but when
they were allowed to usurp the powers
and become the masters then the peo-
pie became slaves. The Administra-
ton sought 10 perpetuate it 10 power by
controlling elections and had prostituted
their positions for selfish purposes.
No people could preserve their liberties
and allow a military Government to
usurp them. The speaker continued
his remarks until half-past ten, de.
nouncing the Administration, advising
all to forget party differences and
hatreds and unite for the purpose OF
reforming the Government and intro
ducing honesty and purity into high
places. S
