island the situation there is very different
from what the Spaniards are claiming.
General Campos is represented as being
very much disheartened not only because
of the sufferings of his troops from disease,
but because he is receiving no help from
Cubans supposed to be loyal to Spain.
1t is known that there are IA, 600 well
armed men in the insurgent ranks, and
they are wearing out the Spanish troops
very rapidly. During the last revolution
the Spanish clement in Cuba contributed
large sums of money to help put down
the insurgents, but now, in spite of the
brilliant and touching addresses of
Campos to all the commercial institu-
tions of the island. he has failed to raise
dollar. The Cubans are more than ever
determined upon independence from
Spain and there is a very general senti-
ment among them in favor of annexation
to this country. In estimating the value
of this account it must be borne in mind
that the Cubans have strong motive
for exaggerating the extent of the
rebellion, since they can hardly expect aid
from their sympathizers in this country
unless they show that their cause has
fair chance of succeeding.

1t is great treat to find an executive
who has convictions and the courage to
express them in the face of the danger
that they are likely to render him I'M
popular and interfere with his chances of
subsequent political preferment. Ex-
ecutives are plenty enough who will
preach long and well upon subjects
which there is only one side to, but those
who have the courage to espouse what
appears to be the unpopu lar side of a
question and run counter to the over
whelming sentiment of the legislative
body by means of veto are rare
Massachusetts, has an executive of the
latter kind. He has just vetoed several
bills to establish State police commits
sions in several towns and cities, and
what indicates more courage, has re-
turned with his disapproval a bill to al
low veterans of the war to be appointed
without examination to places in the
civil service, for which all other people
must undergo a critical scrutiny.
We do not say that he is altogether right
in vetoing this latter bill, but the fact
that the veto was destined to be very I'M
popular, and that the Governor must
have known it, makes it certain that he
acted from a conviction of what
he believed to be his duty, and that, too
in the face of very strong temptation
to yield. For this he is entitled to great
praise. Perhaps his convictions in this
case may be wrong but even in that
event he is entitled to far greater credit
than if he had put them aside
and trimmed his sails to catch what
seemed to be the popular breeze. In the
long run the man who has ideas and the
courage to follow them wins more re-
spect from the public even if he OCCASION
ally goes wrong, than the man who is
always calculating how many voters he
is going to offend or conciliate

Senator Blackburn is on the stump in
Kentucky telling the voters that the op-
position to free coinage is inspired by
England, that Great Britain having
failed to conquer us by arms, is now
undertaking to enslave us by the more
insidious and more dangerous method of
buying us with gold At the same time
many British economists and manufac-
turers insist that England is in danger of
becoming industrially the inferior of
China and Japan by her adherence to
the gold standard, and are clamoring for
an international conference to enlarge her
use of silver; and Mr.. William c. Whit
ney, fresh from abroad, declares that there
is stronger bimetalic sentiment in Eng
land than in the United States. 1t
would look, therefore, as if the British
gold which Senator Blackburn thinks is
going to be poured out for our enslave-
ment might have to be kept at home to

of officiousness, and of writing in uncom-

made against him. Mr.. Morton's oppo-

We osberve that one of the Democratic
State committeeman of Illinois SAYS that
if the Democrats of that State were polled
the result would show decisive majority
against free coinage If they believe that.
then the leaders of the so-called sound
money wing are very pusillanimous
lot in allowing Altgeld and the free coin
age folks to control the State convention
which met yesterday On the assumption
that they were bound to be beaten it NAV
have been good policy for the sound
money Democrats to ignore the call for
this convention, but it, as this committee
man says, they had it in their power to
elect the majority of the delegates to it,
they are pretty weak lot Victory, they
say, was within their grasp, yet they beat
an ignominious retreat without firing a
gun. If the sound money Democrats all
over the country are of the same stripe as
those Illinois people free silver will win
an easy and overwhelming victory in the
Democratic party.

The good citizens of Gils county have become disgusted at the pardon oi Apache Indiana from the penitentiary and have forwarded to the governor a petition asking that no more Indians be phrdoned. The SILVER BELT says tbRt every man to whom the petition was presented signed 1t, and that one hundred and fifty names were ap- pended, There is large clement in Graham county who feel; on the matter of pardoning Indians, as do the people of Gila. The remembranees of Indian atroeity in this county are too fresh for sympathetic appeals for executive elem ency to avail much On general prin- ciples it is safe to say that when an h. dian from the San Carlos reservation becomes an inmate of the penal insti tuition at Yuma he should remain there unhl released by death. -- Graham County Guardian.

On Sunday, June 9th, the members of Globe and Rescue Lodges, I.O.O.F., and their friends gathered at St. Paups M E. Church to pay loving tributes of respect to the memory of deceased Odd | Fellows. Noble Grand Vim. Wilson, of Globe Lodge, presided, and the beautiful and impressive oeremony of the Order was read. This consisted of prayers by the Chaplain, H. Jewell the singing of appropriate songs by the choir, and the reading of the names of the dead by the Secretary. Grand Representative to tho Sovereign Grand Lodge and Past Grand E. II. Cook was the orater of the day. His ad- dress was anasterly effort. A smooth diotion, coupled with forcible yet graceful delivery, marked the entire speech. Mir. Cook spoke of the object of the day, of the principles of the orderg and in an eloquent peroration in which he recalled the names of dearly departed, conclnded.
 After the exercises at the church, Grand Marshal r. Shields Collins formed the line and the lodges, pre- ceded by the Globe brass band, marched to the cemetery. Past Grand Job At kins had charge of the services held in Gods acre. After an invocation by the chaplain, the brethren visited the various graves of Odd Fellows and performed the last of the sweety sad duties of the day, strewinG flowers upon their graves, while recalling the nobleness of character and the good. ness of heart of those who have gone before.
 The Odd Fellows who are buried in the cemetery at Globe and whose graves were decorated, are Past Grand Alex. Graydon, II. A. Isaac, John Lang, Jerry Ryan, Glen Reynolds, Charles A. Smith and Louis A. Ham, mono.

FLORENCE, ARIz., June 10, 1895.
 EDS. SILVER BELT A portion oi the Globe contingent to the Federal court, those summoned as grand 1ur- ors, arrived here yesterday afternoon, having experienced little discomfort further than the ordinary fatigue of . seventy mile journey. The road, es- pecially that portion in Pinal county between Dripping Springs valley and Riverside, is in bad condition, but sew eral light showers and a good breeze tempered the atmosphere and made the trip tolerable.
 At Riverside we were well cared for by Eugene Middleton, proprietor of the Station, who appears to be pros pering, notwithstanding the discon- tinuance of the mail service between Riverside and Globe. The abandon ment of that portion of the route was mistake, loss not only to Riverside and people living along the road, but also to Globe. The importance of maintaining a passable highway and direct communication between the county seats of Pinal and Gila coun- ties is sufficient to justify the re-estab- lishment of mail service, especially as the United States court for the second judicial district. is held here. When the mail was carried the road was kept in fair condition; now, since it's abaud- Oument neither Pinal nor Gila think it worth while to keep it in repair, and wiJhin a few months it will be well nigh impossible.
