IT Is said that Secretary Olney is
going to attempt to atone for the past
errors of his Department by policy of
vigorous repression of filibustering. 1t
is claimed that be says that Spain is our
friend, and we must show our friendship
for her by earnest efforts, and if neces-
sary he will put every vessel in the
Navy on the coast in picket-line within
hailing distance of one another. I'm
doubtedly we should carefully observe
the international laws Of neutrality, but
it will be very easy to overdo this mat
ter. An excess of zeal will be worse than
too much slackness. 1t will be an I'M
pardonable crime if we 90 a hairs
breadth beyond the strict letter of the
law in helping Spain rivet her letters
upon the unhappy island 1t is our duty
simply to act promptly and effectively
on any evidence that the Spanish Minis
ter may present to us of the shipment of
arms, ammunition, or other contraband
of war to the Cubans, or the sailing of
any body of men to Join them. But we
are not required to, employ detectives to
ferret these things out, nor are we to put
more ships on guard than Spain herself
does. Let us carefully fulfill all the
obligations of neutrals according to the
strictest Interpretation Of these laws by
European pubiicists, but be exceedingly
careful not to put $50 much as the twen-
tieth of one poor scruple" weight into the
fulfllment of those obligations more than
lawfully belongs there. The Cubans de-
serve TO be freed from the remorseless
rapacity of Spain. We want them to
win their freedom if they can. They
have our fullest sympathies, and while
National comfy prevents our helping
them, we cannot be too careful to avoid
hindering them.

ALABAMA is warming up with a
lively Senatorial fight between Senator
Pugh and Gov. Oates. Both have &c fine
Confederate records " to commend them
to the thoroughly loyal" voters of the
State. Pugh was q member of the
House of Representatives. and with
drew" when Alabama attempted to
secede. He Immediately enlisted in the
LIST Ala. (rebeD, but was elected to the
Confederate Congress, where he served
until the close of the war. He has been
in the Senate since 1880. His term will
expire in 1897, and Oates's friends say
that II years in the Senate ought to
satisfy any man. Oates was a young
lawyer at the outbreak of the war, but
raised company for the 10Th Ala, and
was afterward its Colonel. He claims
to have been in 81 battles, and to have
been wounded six times. He lost his
arm in front of Richmond in 1864.

ACCOMMODATIONS At THE NATIONAL
ENCAMPMENT

ENCAMPMENT.
The matter in the following COM
munication is so important that we COM
mend it to the particular attention Of
our readers:
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Many COM
rades will 80 from this city 10 attend the
National Encampment at Louisville, KY,
in September, and desire in this connection
toSay few words 10 those interested. 1t
may be thai Louisville will be sorely tested
in trying TO accommodate the large number
Of old veterans and their friends now likely
TO be in attendance. To foresiall any trouble
OF this kind and insure comfortable and rea-
sonable accommodation 10 all visitors, the
Committee of Arrangements having the mat
ter in charge have secured the full CO. opera
ton of Louisville's sister city, New Albany,
Ind which is separated from the former 10y
the Ohio River, and connected Herewith by
two railroad lines, over which trains run at
intervals Of 10 minutes night and day at a
fare of five cents each way.
New Albany has thrown open its school
and other public bindings for the free use
of visitors; It's citizens have opened their
homes for the accommodation of those who
| may seek ii, at a reasonable rate.
A committee Of 100, selected from repre-
sentative citizens of the Hoosier city, guar
antee that there shall be no extortion, and
pledge that courtesy and hospitality shall
vie with patriotism. The physicians of the
city have organized, and tender their serv-
ices free of charge during the Encampment
week, and the druggists will likewise fill
prescriptions on that occasion without cost
! to the visitors.
Already many have secured quarters
there and many thousands more will be
welcomed. Everything considered, it will
prove a most desirable retreat during the
days of the Encampment in the Falls City.
Individuals or Posts desiring more definite
information rs 10 terms, etc. should write
TO Comrade Louis Biz, Chairman Committee
on Accom- m dations New Albany, Ind, or
Post committees should be sent to inspect
and select suitable quarters.-JoHN X.

PROBABLY there has been quite a
severe battle in Cuba, with several
thousand combatants on each side. The
carefully censorized dispatches from
Havana admit that the Cubans fought
with such determination that it required
ali of Marshal de Campos's ability to
rescue the Spanish column from de-
struction. The immediate commander
/ of the latter was killed, with number
Of officers and 20 soldiers. The Span
iards were reduced TO such straits that
they killed their own horses and
mules to form barricade behind which
to shelter themselves. The Cubans were
finally repulsed. 1t looks as if the
Americans who have been making their
way TO Cuba are beginning to get in
their work.

THE San Francisco Argonom tells q
story which has much pertinence at this
time. In 1898 the American whaling
bark Cape Horn Pigeon picked up in the
North Pacific an open boat which con-
tanned 10 men who had escaped from
the Russian prison at Saghalien. The
Captain of the bark brought them to
San Francisco, and, not knowing what
to do with them, turned them over to
the United States Commissioner of I'm
migration, who detained them. The
San Francisco papers, particularly the
Examiner, went into spasms over these
victims of Russian tyranny" They
printed their pictures, and published
long interviews with them. They de-
manded with agonized yells whether the
State Department was going to become
can accomplice in Russian cruelty and
injustice, by turning these innocents
back to the dungeons of Siberia" The
Examiner told awful stories of how they
had been logged with the knout in the
dead of an Arctic Winter until the
blood ran down, freezing as it ran
" forming crimson stalactites," to give
the Examiners hysteric English. The
State Department inquired into the mat
ter, and found that the men were des-
perate murderers. The Russians did
not seem to care very much about the
matter, but were rather glad to get rid
of them. The Examiner succeeded, and
the men were turned loose to become
free American citizens, and grow up with
the country. Two days after their re-
lease a policeman patrolling his beat at
night found evidences of dwelling
having been forcibly entered. He went
in and found crouching in the darkness
man armed with slungshot, made of
piece of cloth and paving-stone, and
Y .&u1~.~
butcher-shop. At the station-house the
man was recognized as one of the CIVIC
tins of Russian oppression" A little
later small shop of San Jose
was attacked by footpads as he was re-
turning home, but having knife with
him drove them off, The next morning
a bloody trail was found leading from
the scene of the attempted robbery to a
vacant lot where man lay dead. The
dead man was Cherbahoff, another of
the "victims." Last December an old
grocer and his wife, living over their
store in Sacramento were found dead in
their rooms, their skulls having been
cleft, evidently with a Ratchet. The
rooms and the store were robbed of
every valuable portable thing. The
police have just succeeded in running
down the perpetrators of the deed, and
they are found to have been Ivan
Kobalef, Kikitin, and Cherbakof. Here
are four of the "Siberian exiles," "the
victims of the Russian oppression" ac-
counted for. The ether six have not
been caught yet, but they will probably
show up in the same way.
