American Guns Against Free Cuba.


The seizure of two Cuban trading
vessels by the United States cruiser
Raleigh was a result of direct orders
from the state department at Wash
ington. and it is in fragrant violation
of our neutrality.
The vessels fired on and seized We're
used in transporting supplies pur-
chased in the United States from
dealers and manufacturers who have
the same right to export flour. pro-
visions. arms and medicines To be used
by the Cubans that they have to ex-
port them to Spaniards through the
port of Havana.
In no sense does the traffic in such
supplies constitute organizing a
military expedition from our terri
tory. When the government uses the
navy to capture the Cuban vessels en-
gagged in trading with us it is helping
to wipe out the little we have left OF
what was once a fiourishing Cuban
trade.
But although our trade interests and
the rights of our manufacturers are to
be considered. our historic policy OF
sympathy with all people Struggling
for freedom and against oppression is
the matter of primary Importance.
And that is abandoned when the navy
for which the people of the United
States are taxed is used to support
Spain in it's atrocious war on Cuban
liberty.
Americans have a right to demand
and they do demand change of the
policy through which the influence of
this government is exerted against the
extension of freedom and self-govern-
ment. We are scandalized before the
world when we are made to appear the
ally of Spain, using our navy in its ser
vice and firing on the vessels of a
friendly people engaged in commerce
with our own manufacturers.

ROW TO SETTLE IT.
Only One Way Out Of The SILVER Question.
says Congressman Warner.
Ex-Congressman John DE Witt War.

'fit Az Nv@A
ner opposes ex-Congressman Richard p.
Bland IN u discussion Of the money
question in the New York Journal OF
July L. Unlike many eastern men, Mr..
Warner has q high opinion Of the abil-
ity, character and r86tives Of the silver
people. He thinks that both the leaders
and those in the ranks OF the Is TO
army are earnest, industrious, sober and
God fearing American citizens, who are
smarting under actual grievances astr
the real of which they are greatly
mistaken. We quote the following as a
part of Mr.. Warmers views:
This proposed law TO make people ac-
scept silver is not asked for by anybody
who wants silver. 1t is just because
people do not want silver and will not
take it unless compelled to do so that
our free silver friends want a law to
make them take it. The only people
who want the law are, therefore: not
those who want silver, but those who
want to get rid Of silver, or who, owing
gold and thinking they can buy silver
more cheaply, want to make their cred
ttOIo thAS IL llstCdi. ~ Ludy DC sdlu
that, as to future matters, we could
make special contracts calling for gold.
That is just what they can do now in
regard to silver. As a matter Of fact, a
large and increasing proportion Of con-
tracts do provide specially for payment
In gold 1t is significant that no one
hears of silver contracts. The reason is
M N prefers silver except for the pur-
pose Of forcing it upon some n else.
The most serious feature of the pres
emit situation Is not 80 much the predica-
ment In which we find ourselves as the
apparent disposition in both parties not
to take the only way out, which, II ]
may suggest it, Is to accept the situa.
tion that the commerce Of the world has
created for itself. to recognize Its gen
eral acceptance Of the gold standard,
and, leaving to commerce the things
that belong to commerce, to resist any
attempt at interference either by our
own government Independently or by
any combination between it and those
of other nations.
Personally / believe gold to be far
superior to any other standard that is
even remotely practicable, but if our
commerce preferred silver l should con-
siderit measureless impertinence on the
part of congress to interfere with that
preference. And SO, certain as / am that
our commerce finds it more profitable
and natural to use gold as a standard, l
am all the more opposed to any attempt
by congress to interfere with the natural
course of business. = y Bad as would be
the effect Of free silver, more and more
of us are concluding that a few years of
apprehension and financial paralysis,
such as we have had, would be more
damaging than the actual experience of
free coinage Of silver, a trial of which
would at least establish certain facts
aud destroy sundry delusions.

African Treo Crabs.

In Africa there exists a tree-crab
which has a trick of crawling up a
cocoanut tree. biting off half dozen
launches and then creeping down again
backwards. The theory is that the nuts
are shattered by the fall, and the crab
thus enjoys a hearty meal. Now the
natives try to stop these depredations.
which often ruin the cocoanut crops,
and take advantage of the fact that
the lower portion of the crab is soft
and sensitive. When they are heard in
the tree the native climbs half way up
the tree and drives in q circle of pixies
made out of thorns. The consequence
is when the crab comes down he en-
counters the thorns, and. supposing
that he has reached the ground, he let's
go, and is so crippled by the fall that he
is easily dispatched and eaten in his
turn.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Over-fat hens are in danger of apo
plexy.
Wheat is among the best foods for
laying hens.
Generally it is not a good plan to feed
stimulating food to poultry.
Except for feeding soft food troughs
should not be used. Always scatter
grain.
While sour milk is relished by the
hens, it should not be made to take the
place of water.
The goose will lay about as many
eggs as the turkey and can be raised to
maturity at about ene-half the cost
A goose is not fully matured at one
year old, but sometimes breeders will
couple old males with young females.
Avoid getting them too fat, and give
them plenty of oppo1t unity for exercise
