The council of the village Of Wellington
Gentlemen: The health department
wishes to call your attention to the very
bad OdOrs escaping from the sewers
through the inlets. Last fall this escap
ing sewer gas was almost unbearabl'
and it is sure to be the same as soon az
warm weather comes. This is caused b!
many inlets into the main sewer by pri
vate drains. The graded inlets on tn
streets should either be trapped or all in
lets, of a private nature, be cut off.
Yours very respectfully
NJ. W. LANG,
Health Officer

Mr. UTLLER'S OBJECTIONS.

One of ok Senator Warner Miller's objections
70 The Bliss plan for charging the State Com
mittee by having that body consist Of one mem
her from each Assembly district. Is that it would
nut the control Of the committee into the hands
Of the cities Of the State. "New-YOrk.' says Mr..
Miller. has 81 Assembly districts, Kings Coun-
..ty II. Erie :. Albany I. Monroe and Onondaga
II That makes a total Of I6. or one more than
..holf the entire committee. Add Utica in Oneida
County and Troy in Rensselaer, County and that
would make 81 members from cities whose AS
'.scmbly districts are more than three-fourths
.Democratic" This sounds formidable TO those
who forget or do not know that Mr. Miller's
argument applies with just much force 10 the
committee rs at present constituted. That is to
say. The State Committee. as made up to-day OF
one member from each Congress district. is con-
troed by the Representatives Of the urban con-
srituences
There are "a Congress districts in the State.
or these the Id. Hid. WITH. With and Win are
part Of Kings County; the With Is part Of New
York and Richmond: the With. INth. Nth,
NIth. NIIth NIIIth. XIVth and XVIII are por-
lions Of New-York City; the XVIII comprises
part Of New York City and Westminster County.
The XIXth includes Troy and Columbia County.
the XXth Albany The NXXIst Rochester, the
XXXIId and XNNIlId Buffalo and Erie Co'ln-
~. Thus Of The - no less than 20 are city dis
rricis-c constituting an overwhelming majority
of the present State Committee. SO mulch for
Mr. Miller's argument. II Is Il fair sample OF
what has been urged in opposition 10 the change.
The State Committee should be enlarged, and
while we favor the proposition 10 have the com
miiler consist of the chairmen OF the various
county committees instead OF one member from
each Assembly district. tx proposed by Mr.. Bliss,
we have no hesitation in saying that the Bliss
Committee in agItatlng this matter Is perform
ing n most valuable service TO the Republican
party. We do not understand. indeed. that the
committee Is welded TO the particular idea which
It Is advancing. lis members simply desire to
have the committee enlarged. improved and
made more representative Of the party than il is
AT present. In that good work they are entitled
to The support Of every reputable Republican
throughout the State.

THE STATE or CUBA.

Rumors are rife concerning General Martinez
de- Campos, the chief Spanish commander In
Cuba. Some are 10 the effect that he has
signed or Is about TO resign his place. and will
return 10 Spain and recommend that home rule
he at once granted 10 the insllrgcnt island
These mas may not be- well founded; and the
same may be said Of Il multitude Of current re-
ports from and about Cuba, often vague and
sometimes contradictory. Amid them all how
ever one fact seems clear and ndspuiablc
That is. that the Spanish cause is in a bad way
Probably IL would be no eXaggeraiiOn TO say il
is in a desperate extremity. The fact is appar-
ent in both Havana and Madrid. II is rccog-
nized in both. 70 attempt to conceal il would
be folly
Let us look at the situation as 1t presents itself
at this time. The Spanish forces I'm Cuba are
commanded by Generator Field Marshal-Alar-
tinez de Campos He Is confessedly the foremost
soldier Of Spain. lie came 10 Cuba expecting
confidently 10 suppress the rebellion in n few
weeks He did not do SO. The weeks have
grown 10 months. and the rebellion Is not
crushed. II il not even checked. II Is today
more widespread and aggressive than ever be-
fore. General Campos has not suppressed II I'm
any quarter. On the contrary, he has himself
been PM 10 flight by the rebels he has NARROWLY
escaped capture and he has been compellod IA
beg fayors from the nsurgent chiefs He has
had AT his disposal 10000 Of Spain's best vet
eran troops and he has lost one-ihird " them. ON
the battlefield or In the hospital. Instead Of
sending home reports Of victories won he has
sent only requests for relnforcements A short
time ago he planned TO suspend active oporo
lions for couple Of months. until the yellow
fever season was over. Then he would get
new army Of 10000 more from Spain. take the
field In earnest and wipe out the instruction
bur that plan did not work. The rebels would
not let him rest so for fear the truculent and
triumphant patriots VIII beslege him in Havana
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1895-08-15

,tsolf or drive him and his decimated followers
into the Gulf. he frantcally appeals to have the
now army sent TO him at once, in the very midst
~ tbe fever season. No wonder he Is said to DE
disheartened
Two other circumstances are highly signifl-
cant. The Spaniards in Cuba. who in former
,rsurrectIons were more royal than the King,
are now seriously disaffected. They no longer
offer money. limb and life for the suppress'o"
Of the revolt They look on at best with IN
difference. many Of them with illdisguised hos
fifty to the Government. some with actual sym
pahy with the revolutonists. Cuba Is no more
the .EverFaithful Isle" The only people in IT
faithful to Spain are General Campos ana his
old soldiers. As for Spain itself II Is almost apa-
tbetlc We hear of no popular enthusiasm Tor
the prosecution Of the war. There Is every rea-
son 10 believe that the people as rule do moi
care a fig whether Cuba Is kept Hnder the Span
isb flag or not The new troops who are now being
hurried over 10 face machetes and yellow Jack
are actually mutnous. They have no stomach
for the war They have to be- driven aboard the
transport ships like cattle. at the point OF the
bayonet. in one case even fired upon. That Is
not the way in which men go forth to victory
There Is on the whole Spanish side OF the
struggle not one suspicious feature. There Is
not one hopeful promise Of success. On the
Cuban side there is much encouragement. and
every day adds to II. Men are not lacking. nor
IS money And. somehow or other. the money
gets transformed into munitions Of war, and
