The Times-Herald OF Chicago expresses
in a cartoon an opinion as TO why Europe
is ueglecting American railway securi-
ties and investing millions Of dollars in
the wild cat mining shares in South At

books are hurry.ng into the building
where the securities are offered for sale
On the other side is seen a desk piled
high with American railway bonds and
stocks. Behind the desk is a masked man

dica,sye OF the scandalous manner in
which the owners Of American railroad
securities have been victimized by rail-
road wreckers and spectators.
So many millions of dollars have been
lost by investors in American railroad Sc
cuuues within the last half dozen years
that it is matter Of wonder that honest

And the unfortunate feature of it all
is that many of those who are mainly
responsible. for the wrecks Of railroads
have not been punished They are en-

of their crimes. Because Of their wealth
they command a certain amount Of re-

Our Duty in the Cuba Matter.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem.O


The duty of the government of the
United States, in so far as it affects
the struggle in Cuba, is strictly confined
to the enforcement of the laws of the
United States, which prohibit the fitting
out of armed vessels and the recruiting
of men to be employed against a power
with which we are at peace. So long as
Spain shall persist in the pretense that
a state of war does not exist in Cuba our
government cannot even prevent the ship
ment of arms and ammunition by private
individuals to the island. In times of peace
gunpowder and guns are as legitimately
articles of commerce as bacon and beans
A different aspect would be given to the
case should the belligerencey of the in
surrectionists be acknowledged by Spain
or become fact which could no longer
be ignored. In that event the law of ma
tions would come into play, and it would
thus become the duty of this government
as a neutral power, to prohibit the use
of its ports and waters for the renewal
and augmentation of military supplies
and arms" in accordance with the Amer
lean contention before the Geneva tri-
bunal

AIrrnxs Polite.

Illustrating a case of real politeness, a
story is told of a famous New York cler-
gyman, as he tells il. One Sunday, not
long ago, he was going up the steps of
his church, when he was asked by an old
lady (who, of course, did not know him)
to help her up. With his usual courtly
grace he complied with her request. on
reaching the top steps, she halted, breath
lessly, and asked him who was going to
preach that day. The Rev. Mr.. Blank -

Senator Chandler of New Hampshire is
like the school boy who cannot keep still
The Senate takes too long a vacation to
suit him, and he is not content to let his
highly original mind lie fallow until con-
gress meets. One never is surprised to
hear an expression of opinion from Mr.
Chandler He recently came into notori-
ETY. as the defender of poor, outraged
silver, but, as nobody paid serious at
tention to his plaintive protests against
the policy OF the government, he has now
unlimbered himself and come out for war
with England. II is inevitable, he says
because of Great Britain's eneroacnments
upon our rights; it should be well
coined; Russia will be our ally
and we will take possession of Canada,
After that we shall want only the Sand
witch Islands and a foothold in the West
Indies. 1t was very accommodating of
Senator Chandler to arrange the affairs
of this country and to rehearse the pro
gramme in ample time to give congress
its cue. With naughty England brought
to her knees and Hawaii and Cuba safe
within the fold. Mr.. Chandler will then
have leisure to resume Sis advocacy of
the coinage of silver and the rasping of
his political opponents in the yitriolic
style which is his speciality.

The Jackson's Hole settlers who muir
dered several Bannock Indians some
weeks ago are to be brought to trial for
their acts. according to the dispatches.
The chances for obtaining convictions
are thought to be not very good The
common far western idea of Indians is
that they are not good for anything ex-
cept TO shoot. or to furnish an excuse for
the calling out of the troops. in order

for teams may be created. Still, it is

From the New Orleans Picayune Dem

All things considered, the management
of the Atlanta exposition should not feel
very much agreved, as there is an APP
pearance of justice in the governments
action. The government has no power to
interfere with individual, or even popu-
lar, demonstrations in favor of Inc Cuban
patriots; but the giving of official char
acter to any such movement. either di-
rectly or indirectly, without the sanction
and improper. The considerations which
prevent the use of the exposition as the
place for the holding of a Cuban demon
stration do not apply to monster popu-
lar demonstration, either in Atlanta or
any other part of the country, where the
government is not implicated, either di-
rectly or indirectly.

have declined to permit the ship to be
locked at Port Royal. 1t is particularly
unfortunate that there is so much doubt
and uneasiness with regard to the Port
Royal dock. At present it seems to be a
white elephant upon the government s
hands. Still there appears to be no good
reason why there should be so much dis
trust of it. The specifications provided by
the naval. constructors have been COM
piled with and the dock has been accepted
one naval vessel has been put into it
without accident or untoward incident
But bad reports have got abroad about
the dock. and there is an all-round hest
fancy about putting one of the great ships
into it. 1t seems that an accurate sur
vey by a competent board of inspectors
would set all doubts at rest. Such a sur
vey viii probably be ordered by the Secre-
tary of the Navy shortly.

Our dispatches of yesterday reported
that Maxine Gomez. the commander-in-
chief of the Cuban insurgents, was pre-
pairing to leave the island temporarily. for
the purpose of having his wounds attend
ed to. The dispatch left some doubt as
to whether the wounds were really giving
Gomez much trouble, and also as to his
destination. 1t transpires that the Atlanta
people have been making special efforts
to have some big man from among the
insurgents. and fresh from scenes of the
struggle, in attendance upon the Cuba
day. exercises at the exposition. 1t may,
or may not, be that Gomez will himself
take the job of stirring up enthusiasm in
Atlanta. If he were to visit this country
and attend Cuban sympathy meetings. the
effect would probably be considerable.
