Jamaica is Aiding Cuba.

New YORK, Dec. 4.-Special cor
respondence to the World from
Kingston, Jamaica, states that
residents and sympathisers of
Cuba In Jamaica have been par
ticularly active of late and have
several times outwitted the au-
thortties, who were on the lookout
for departing expeditions of fill
busterers. The Spanish consul at
Kingston has had the southern
coast constantly patrolled by the
guards but the northern coast, free
of all espionage, has afforded safe
embarkation of men and ammuni-
tion destined for Cuba. On the
night OF the 18th an expedition
fully armed and equipped set sail
from the north coast and carrier
pigeons just arrived being news of
safe arrival.

There is a little muttering
around the horizon because the
few thousands collected in the
way of income tax, by the force of
illegal imposts by democratic
congress, have not been refunded.
Now that the income tax law is
declared illegal its collections
should be returned. The sum does
not figure side by side with the
millions of revenue lost through
other fool legislation.

The democratic cry, which erst-
while was all for free trade in
everything, Is now for free trade in
raw material. By this, they mean
free trade in all that enters into
the manufacture Of the country,
This is policy that our friends,
the farmers, may want to be heard
on. Free trade in farm produce
has not, up to date, proved the de-
lectable thing that it's advocates
have declared. Along the Cana
dian border the hens and the hay
makers and cheesemen, and the
.Jersies and the pea and bean grow.
ers have found that free trade les.
sens their products and their
profits just the same as free trade
in Texas brings over the Mexican
horse and steer to cut the heart
out of Texas cattIemen.
