The new silver party has been form
ally launched on the political seas by
the American Bimetallic league. now
in session at Washington. The address
accompanying the birth of the new
party is temperate in tone and will prob
ably be very well received by the friends
of silver whether they approve of reach
ing the desired end via new party or
not. The address is signed by the
league officers and the new organiza-
tion is already attracting to its standard
large numbers from the ranks of the
disintegrating Populist party, fact
which will not add materially to itspres-
tage at the start.

More than two thousand years
ago the results of Alcohol on the
body were compared to the bite of
a serpent and the sting of an adder
and alcohol has not changed its ma.
ture since. At the present time al
coholic beverages are certainly thu
most injurious, deceptive and dan,
gerous elements of death and de
struction that exist, aud the annals
of criminal court prove that they
are an aggravated public nuisance
generally. Yet the beverages are
so fascinating, and the poison in
them so insiduous that the whole
human race has been deluded and
cheated for thousands of years, anC
more injury has resulted from their
use than has been Occasioned by al
the woe OF war, famine and pesti-
lence combined; and now the science
and experience, and enlightened rea.
son have so largely dissipated sucl
delusive cobwebs of appetite, anc

Maxine Gomez, general in chief
of the Cuban insurgents, issues an
order that all must stand from un-
der, as he will use the torch where
ever he sees it necessary on friend
or foe. He has gone in to win the
independence of Cuba and he does
not propose to fight and see big
landed and house holders stand idly
by with folded arms and reap the
benefits of what victory will bring
them, should he be successful, or
should Spain gain the victory, be
the passive tools that they would be.
Maxine is not that kind of a gener-
al, and he will burn as he goes, just
like Sherman did in his march to the
sea. They say all things are fair in
war, and If this be so, Maxine is
making the most of fighting a real
and imaginative enemy. The war
should be stopped and peace patch
ed up between Spain and Cuba look
ing to a cessation of hostilities. Let
the great nations step in and give
Spain or Cuba one to understand
that they must settle their differ
ences in other ways than by the
torch or dynamite.

ROBINS AND THEIR NESTS.
saw Il robin i'll one apple tree one
day. She flew away before l could look
at her long time. When shs came back
she had string in her bill, and what do
you think she did with it? She flew to
the ground and had in her bill some
dried grass. The next time she had her
nest all finished. She sat IN her nest to
make it nice and soft. When it was all
finished she LAID tour blue eggs in it.
The tree was near the wind,w of my
bedroom. And what do you think there
was in the nest the next morning? There
were Jour little birds in the nest. They
had no feathers. They looked very hor-
rid without feathers. Their mouths
were wide open tor food. One day Mrs.
Robin dug IN the ground to get some
food. She found a worm and broke it
into four pieces to give it to her little
ones, while Mr.. Robin sat ON branch
and watched. That is the end of Mrs
Robins and Mr. Robins story.
