WAIT FOR CONGRESS.
CUBANS DELAY IN MAKING PLEA
FOR RECOGNITION.
They Believe They Have a Better
Chance of an Acknowledgment of
Their Be1ligcrent Rights by Such
Action.
Policy of Cuban Leaders.

Gonzales de Quesada, secretary of the
Cuban revolutionary party, with head
quarters in New York. has been in Wash
ington recently on private business. He
did not see Secretary Olney. nor were any
steps taken toward securing the recOgni-
ton of the Cuban insurgents as belliger-
ents. The policy of the Cubans in seek
ing recognition of the United States has
been outlined substantially rs follows:
No application will be made To the execu-
tive branch of the government until Con
gress assemblies. 1t is the feeling that
even if the executive authorities were dis
posed to recognize the CubanS. the action
would involve such grave responsibility
that the executive branch would desire
to have the cooperation and support OF
Congress. Care will be AIKEN also to see
that there is uniformity in the steps pro
posed to Congress. I'm this way the mis-
takes made at the time of the last Cuban
uprising will be avoided. Al that time
there were no less than forty different
Cuban resolutions referred to the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs. proposing
recognition, arbitration and many other
plans. all intended To favor Cuba. In the
end this diversity of proposals prevented
an agreement on any one course.

PRACTICAL euaeEsrIoNs.

Unbelievers try to find, not the truth
about Christianity and the Bible, but
only evidence against them.
There is time to be silent, under
false accusations, and refute them only

We should openly confess our pur-

An Incident and an Illustration

A few days since one of the
prominent and popular citizens Of
the State announced his convers-
ion to the free silver panacea. He
did this in a speech of considera-
bic length and the incident has
been hailed with extreme exulta-
ton by the free silver press. In
the course of this speech, which
has been so much applauded, the
citizen in question said:
eve want deprecated cheap
money, because we are debtors and
not creditors; we want that money
to pay our debts with"
This seems to us to be the most
candid and accurate recognition Of
the logic Of the 16 to l free coin
age idea that has been formulated.
1t is, we believe, an undeniable
presentation Of the issue and it is
upon this point that argument
should be directed. Passing by
its undemocracy, for Democracy
has always proclaimed sound mon
ey; its violation of the axiom that
honesty is the best policy, the Me-
ridian News thus punctures even
its assumed benefits:
"Let us illustrate the idea by
supposing an individual, practical
application.
A is creditor, holding a mortgage
due January l, 1896, for $1,000 on
the home of B. In December, 1895,
the Congress Of the United States
passes a law, and the President
signs it, in obedience to the Ge-
mand of the debtor, that the mon
ely of the country shall, in the
course of a certain time, be derre-
clated fifty per cent in value.
AS mortgage is due Jan. |. B
is poor man and has not 81, 900.
He asks A to renew the note; he
can pay the interest but not the
principal; times are hard and he
must have time. What will lie A 5
answer? Will it not be something
like this: II cannot and will not
be indulgent; because | know your
property will bring $1,000 in good
money today whereas if ! grant
you an extension you will pay me
Just S 600 in deprecated money"
| would rather take the property
and either sell it now for 81, 600 in
good money. or hold it year or SO
and get s., 00U Of cheap money for
it. DON'T you see?" Its human
nature you know.
What advantage does that debt
or enjoy from deprecated money?"
# seems that debtors ought tc
understand this That not dollar
Of existing debts can be paid in de.
prcciated money. And as to the
future transactions, they will most
surely be predicated upon future
conditlons.-Greenville Times.
