Las NovedadeS" is a Spanish newspaper
published daily in the city of New York.
1t Is curiosity. 1t believes and declares
that governmental control of the press
should be Encouraged and Is evidently de-
lighted at the action Of Captain-General
Campes In the matter of Cuban insurrec-
tionary news; that official having an
nounced that hereafter no news of the in
surrection emanating from any other than
Spanish administrative sources should be
printed in the Cuban newspapers Las
Novedades says:
General Martinez Campos has not gone
through dozen campaigns for nothing.
He krowS that while keeping a watchful
neglect the enemy in his rear, who is seek
Sg to aid the insurgents by disseminating
81 sorts of rumors injurious to the Spanish
cause. Take away their occupation, Gen.
sral, and put pollock on their lips
If the situation in Cuba were turned up
side down and a Cuban general were to
issue such proclamation as that which
Las Novedades now applauds, it is reason
able to imagine that the editor of Las
Noyedades would, either publicly or pri-
vately-as policy might dictate-regard
such high-handed measures as UNANIMOUSLY
tyrannical and impossible in any country
laying claim TO superior civilization. In
another column of the same issue it Is
said that General Martinez Campos hav-
ing. very properly, put an embargo upon
the circulation of false and sensational
news in Cuba, our readers may from now
On look for redoubled efforts on the part of
insurgent sympathizers in the manufac-
ture of insurgent victories and expeditions
from these shores. The sensation mill is
set to work to grind out a plentiful supply
of victories and filibustering expeditions"
Parallel with that warning is the an
nouncement that reinforcements to the ex-
tent of 10000 men are being organized in
Spain and will be at once sent to Cuba. If
the victories which the insurgents claim
have in no case really been victories, and
if tine flibusterins expeditions which ex-
cite the sneers Of Las Novedades have all
been bootiess errands. then why does Spain
continue to send large forces of we'll
trained troops to the little island in which
just now there Is bloody conflict between
monarchy and repubiicani6m?

Strangely enough there seems to be wide

Strangely enough there seems to be wide
spread local impression to the effect that
the action Of the coroner's jury last Friday
evening interposes to prevent investigation
by the grand jury of the shooting of young
Green. The impression is entirely without
support either in law or in common sense,
for 1t Is not within the power Of coron-
er's jury to so declare itself in a verdict
that grand jury may not investigate and
pass upon the acts alleged to be Illegal but
condoned by the coroner's jury. The few
men who are hastily summoned to act as
agents, in the first instance, of the commu-
nifty. are required to give expression to
their belief as to the cause or causes which
contributed to the decease of the person or
persons whose untimely departure seems to
call for official inquiry before much Of the
material evidence is buried. Having put
itself upon record as to what it believes
brought about the sudden death. the coron-
er's jury has fulfilled It's duty; If anything
more remains to be done it Is within the
.province of the District attorney and the
grand jury. In the present instance the
jury found Ernest Green was killed by
bullet fired from revolver by Miss Eliza
beth Flagler. but as the jury did not be-
Heve that Miss Flagler intended to injure
the little boy, though It believed that she
had fired carelessly and indiffersntIy. it re-
turned a verdict which permitted Miss
Flagler to remain at liberty so long as the
grand jury should refrain from bringing in
true bill. No one who is acquainted
with the facts In the case can possibly
come to any conclusion other than that
Miss Flagler in discharging a loaded pistol
in close proximity to a dwelling house and
a public street and in such manner as to
destroy life committed an act which must
necessarily be examined as to Its legal
quality by some higher judicial tribunal
than coroner's jury; by body that will
have an opportunity for investigation Of
the NEST searching description. Unques-
tionably the circumstances of the homicide
will be brought to the attention of the
grand Jury. Eelief that the severest
punishment for her carelessness which
Miss Flagler may suffer is her mental dis
tress at destroying life should have and
will have no tendency to cause a different
method of procedure to be followed in this
case from that which would ordinarily be
adopted.

Political Suspicion.
From the Lewiston Evening Journal.

Soa.e of the democratic papers are bound
to have it that Mr.. Manley is "ostensibly'
for Mr.. Reed but really" for somebody
else, while Chairman Carter is supposed
to be a Harrison man. but at heart for
Reed. This being the howde-do what
boots it who Is for whom? IT'S stand
OF. anyway! Shallow gossips think sus-
picion of duplicity is proof of their own
tremendous acumen, but there is more
loyalty in the world than they think, and
less treachery in politics. The man who
reckons that everybody is trying to cheat
him does not get on very fast, either in
politics or business.

were somewhere, that the streets were
thronged with women rather than
with ladies, or that a woman rode on
horseback where formerly lady
rode. The women have taken the
place of the ladies in the dance; the
woman doctor has superseded the
lady doctor; and we hear more frea
quently of the women than of the
ladies who frequent the theatres,
churches, and stores. There are wo-
mems clubs and societies, women
politicians, women writer's and bicy-
clers.
The change does not mean that
women are less ''ladylike" than they
used to be, but perhaps that they are
more womanly. 1t does not mean
that men are less polite than they
formerly were, or that chivalrous
manners have fallen into utter decay,
or that the gentleman as well as the
lady is a back number. 1t would be
cause of profound regret if the
change had any such significance.
We are disposed to think that it
has been brought about largely by
growth of the sense of equality be-
tween men and women; by the ten
dency of the times toward the equali-
zation of the rights and privileges of
women and men; by the entrance of
women into competition with men as
money-makers, and by the momen-
tum of the women's s rights movement.
Perhaps that last phrase itself has had
large influence in causing the change.
Since the word woman is essential to
it, one cannot very well speak of
''lady suffrage" or the ladies rights
movement or lady office holders.
The word woman" was often used
contemptuously or in an unkindly
sense by old English writer's. In this
country only generation ago, would
it frequently have been unsafe to
speakof 'lady" as a woman" es-
pecially if there were ladies or gentle
men within hearing. The toast, "The
Ladies, God bless 'emp' was always
given amid applause: but there would
have been trouble if the POSTMASTER
had put the word women" for
''ladies."
In our time, the word woman seems
to have attained a new dignity. The
woman-the right kind of womanAis
all the lady ever was, and more, too.
