uKeoIsM WILL NOT 10.

The powers -that-be seem 10 be kept busy
denying statements that the Spanish min
lister has been recalled because Of his al
legged diplomatic ind iscretions or that
there is disagreement in lie Cabinet as TO
our foreign policy The Spanish incident
amounts TO nothing. Tie Spanish ministry
are not fools, and Secretary GreshaE's
bravado was unnecessary If a mistake
was made in firing on the Anianca ample
amends would have been made without
a Jingo demand.
But the Nicaraguan question presents
a different and more complicated aspect.
il England insists upon enforcing her
demand for the payment OF indemnity for
the expulsion OF British Consul Hatch,
the United States must either protect
Nicaragua from conquest or abandon the
Monroe doctrine. =st is generally conceded
that Nicaragua cannot pay the $4,000 de
manded within the time specified. And in
that event, should England adopt violent
measures, this country may be involved.
The Monroe ooCtrine, as promulgated in
the annual message OF President Monroe
December 2. 1928, cannot be misunder-
stood. 1t reads as follows:

ANOTHER CUCKOO REWARDED.

President Cleveland made another ex-
cenent and meritorious appointment from
a cuckoo standpoint yesterday when he
nominated Congressman Outhwaife for
the board OF ordnance and foTtifications,
at a salary OF 81 600 per year.
According to his Congressional bi
ogrRphy Mr.. Cultivate has never seen a
moments military service. although old
enough to have served in the war of the
rebellion. Nor does he hardly know a
cannon from a pig trough. Some time
in his political life he has probably seen a
Notification. but il is safe TO assert that
he knows more about stump-speakfng
than he does about the building OF de-
fenses.
Mr. Outhwaite's political rvUerd is as
follows: He was born in Cleveland,
Ohio. in le4I: was admitted to the bar in
1865; was elected prosecuting attorney
OF Franklin county, Ohio, in 1874. and
served in the Forty ninth. Fiftieth, Fifty
first, Fifty second, and Firty-third Con-

he is lu=keting in Florida with II 81.
Taylor, the STANDARD Oh maFnate, and is
alleged 10 have said that If The Republican
party declares for free silver he VII get
out OF it,
No one has ever credited this living
effigy OF the man who conquered Europe
with being politically discreet, nor has he
lately been deemed a formidable candidate
for the nomination, but when Mr. Nc
KinIey makes such a silly utterance as the
one reported, lie has given up the contest
or else needs the attention OF an expert
in brain diseases.
Notwithstanding The opposition in the
East. the silver question VIII largely in
nuence both the Democratic and Republican
Presidential nominations. The South and
West arein favor OF nat 5onal bimetallisn and
their demands cannot be ignored More than
half the delegates 10 both conventions VIII
ask for the recognition or silver, and Mr.
Mckinley or any other candidate who de-
liberately goes on record to the contrary
prematuTely announces his defeat.
il now looks as if some Republican st.
Helena would have to lie provided for the
early retirement OF our Ohio Napoleon OF
politics.

I WALK ALONE.

walk alone where evening shadows lower,
Peering through the crimson cloud of fate,
Ny heart beats out the weary, tagging
hour.
Speaking to my soul too late, too late Z"
walk alone where morning beams are
shining
And winds are blowing DER the dark blue
sea;
1 look aloft and see a silver lining
That thrills my soul with thoughts of
Deity.
L walk alone where mountain streams are
leaping
And snow-capped SUBMITS reach unto

And still my nightly, silent watch I'm
keeping,
Gazing into worlds beyond that never die.
I walk alone this rugged road of life,
Where human Mayflies flutter, fly, and
fan
battle still with everlasting strife
Ambition, glory. and the graye-that's
all
But far on the deep there are blIlows
That never win break on the beach,
And j have heard songs in the silence
That never will float into speech.
And have dreamed dreams in the valley
Too lofty for language to reach.

crosses: he was defeated for election to the
Fifty fourth Congress.
The nominations OF Buck Kilgore and
Chairman Springer to jrdgeShips in the
Indian Territory were bad enough because
neither of them knew anything about law,
but their ignorance was partly compensated
10y the Iawlessness OF the country 10 which
they We're appointed.
This Illumination Of Mr.. Outhwaite. how
ever, is absolutely without excuse. The
board of ordnance and Notifications should
consist of educated, practical experts, men
competent TO deal with our coast and Earbor
defenses. and not OF defeated, political
hacks.

Cleveland, "A public office is a public

"coMmERcIAL ANkEx.TEoN."

Senator Proctor is right when referring
10 the annexation OF Cuba, lie said: Il
am for commercial annexation and not
for territorial annexation" In order
to be prosperous this country must foster
policy of commercial reciprocity and
stop driving trade away by discriminat-
ing against foreign products.
The 10 per cent. dlfferentlal on refined
sugar put millions OF dollars into the
treasury OF the sugar trust and closed
the ports OF Europe against our meat
products. 1t also shut American flour
out OF Cuba and cost our mllers valuable
market.
BY allowing trusts TO dictate the tariff
law instead of being guided by the wei
fare of the public, Congress made a vital
mistake. II is a general trade with all
countries that we need to provide pros
perity for every class, and this can only
be done by cuItiyating friendly commercial
intercourse
