The Record Union" predicted that the
Cubans would contemptuously scout and
sneer at the pacific offers of Spain. The
dispatches say that just that has been
the result of the announcement that the
Spanish Ministry propose to offer the
Cubans home rule. The latter reply,
and with entire justice, that the home
rule to be extended would be simply
will they accept such humiliating terms.
A representative legislative body select
ed by the crown, with supreme power
reserved in the latter, and it's military
agent as Governor-General at the head
of the army and navy, is a sort of home
rule plan that the Cubans cannot un-
derstand as anything else than an at
tempt to perpetuate huge joke. Since
it has been given out that the Cubans
would not probably accept the terms
proposed, the Spanish Ministry has
busted itself in denying that it intended
to make the offer. 1t now says that in
time it will institute reforms in Cuba,
but that the war must be brought to a
close first, and General Weyler supple
ments this announcement with the de-
claration that inside of eight or Eine
months he will have the rebellion be-
meath his thumb. If it is not ended
long before that in Spanish triumph
Cuba will be free.

HOW MINERAL LAND Is MONOPO-
LIED.

We print in this issue the report of
an expert upon certain lands claimed
to be owned by a gentleman in Mar
quette, Michigan, but bodied up
through the instrumentality of one r.
L. Dunn, Auburn. The entire details of
be interesting to all who desire TO un-
derstand how it is that large bodies Of
land fall into single ownership under
the claim that they are mineral. Re-
Gently a statement appeared in San
Francisco paper to the effect that a
gentleman in Michigan owned 10000
acres of mining land in Siskiyou Coun-
ty. How he came to acquire color of
title to this land is clearly explained in
the article herein referred to.
Attention is also called to state
ment in the article relating to the man
ner in which the reports of the State
Mineralogist are used to bolster up
doubtful mining enterprises. There is
scarcely a probability that these lands
are worth anything whatever for min
eral purposes, and yet the report of
the State Mineralogist for 1894 pre-
sents an elaborate theory on these min
eral deposits. Appearing thus in a
State document, mining locations Of
this kind acquire a false and fraudu-
lent certificate of good character. Prac-
tices of this kind will very soon destroy
all the influence which the report of
the State Mineralogist should have.
The present officer has enjoyed an en-
viable reputation for honesty and ca
pacity, and it is to be hoped that under
his administration fraudulent attempts
TO produce a vast system of land mo-
nopoly under the pretense of buying up
mining claims will find no encourage
ment.

posed in this paper, and relating to a

OLD VIRGINIA AND A NEW ROAD
SYSTEM.

There was a State Good Road Conven-
ton held at Richmond, Va, not long
ago that proved to be very satisfact-
ory convocation, according to the vir-
ginia press. 1t was a large body and a
thoroughly representative one. Among
the conclusions reached after long and
serious deliberation was this, that the
road law should be such as to impose
upon all classes and interests in the
State the cost of road construction and
maintenance in proportion to the ben
efits derived.
We believe that this is sound doc
trine, with the modification, however,
that the imposition of the cost upon all
the State should relate only to State or
State-aided roadways, while as to all
others the equal imposition Of cost
should be confined to the people within
counties. This Is, In fact. the intention,

The Stockton Record" says:
The Republicans of Orange County
have adopted a platform containing
strong resolutions in favor of restrict
ing immigration and against the use
of public money for any sectarian pur-
poses, and demanding a longer term of
residence before naturalization; also,
the enforcement of educational quail
ifications for voters. These are the re-
forms that citizens all over the country
have been insisting upon, nor does
there appear to be any organized op-
position to the reforms. Why should
they not be accomplished?
They will be, if there is no Stacking
of effort; if persistence is the rule in
making the demand. Every living law,
every policy of the Nation, reflects the
better thought of the people eventually
Often there is long delay in reaching
this consummation, but it always is
attained finally. The thought of the
people is strongly in favor of greater
restriction of immigration; more strin-
gent requirements regarding natural
iZation, and in favor of higher stand
ard of intelligence among voters
throughout the entire Union. That po-
litical organizations are recognizing
| the growth Of the sentiment fortifying
these desires of the people is strong
indication that the time is not far dis
tant when they will be realized The
declaration of so small and obscure a
portion of the Republican party as that
. in Orange County may not be deemed
of much importance, but it is a straw
indicating the course of the wind. How
ever, the Republican party has in many
parts been making similar declarations
and even in the national organization
the note has been sounded. In Califor-
MIA such advance has been made upon
the line of the sentiment in favor of
| higher voting standards, that the com
| ing fall the people are to pass upon a
proposed constitutional amendment es-
tablishing an educational requirement
for electors coming to the ballot-box-
that it viii be adopted is conceded.

and persons who have been pronounced

nails among the merely unfortunate is
wrong. beside being dangerous to the
community. AS insane asylumS
are now constituted they do not give as
surance that unusually dangerous lu-
natics NAV not escape as easily as those
who are considered comparatively
harmless. and one of them should be

The Bakersfield Californian" gives
notice that no more free advertising
tices-will be given in its columns to any
association, person or society sending
away from home to have its printing
done. The Fresno Republican" sec
onds the motion, and advances sensible
reasons for it. To these the Riverside
Press extends sympathetic concur
renee, and wishes especially to include
the class that gives the printing with a
chance for profit in it to an outside
office, and that on which nothing is to
be made to the country newspaper Of
fee. Country newspapers do greatly
more good for the communities in
which they are located than the COM
munities do, or can do for them. The
test of the truth of this assertion will
be best made by supposing the taking
away from county or an interior town
of its newspapers. What time would
elapse before the people would be clam
oring for their return or for others in
place of them. We despise the boycott

ties are within the sole jurisdiction of

is no obligation to notice them at all
1t follows, then, thai if a local society
sends abroad for its printing when it
could have as good done at home, it is
simple justice to refuse to help on the
organization in its mean discrimination
II is simply a question of reciprocity.
However, there should never be any
thought of obligation in the matter of
local notices. The local columns should
not be less Independent or less free
than the editorial But it does not fol-
low that if one gives to the local office
his printing for an entertainment or for
a society affair, that therefore he buys
a right to the commendation of the To-
cal paper. A very large number of
country newspapers are obliged to con-
duct job printing offices in connection
with them. By all right and reason the
ordinary printing patronage of the COM
munity upon which the journal depends
for support belongs to the paper. 1t is
not difficult to understand, therefore,
the Indignation of the publisher who
sees orders for work go abroad that is
intended to serve an entertainment or
business which he is asked to boost to
success in his local columns as a pure
gratuity.

A few days ago the Record Union
at considerable length told the story of
the Matabeles and their troubles with
the English. The dispatches of the last
few days have given new interest to
that romantic recital Whoever, being
free from bias, reads the history of the
invasion of South Africa by the English,
the trespasses upon the lands of the ma
tive tribes, the trickery by which they
were cheated of their possessions, and
the cruelties connected Herewith, can
not fail to blush in shame for civiliZa-
ton, and feel an honest sense of anger
at our English relations. The dis
patches represent the Matabeles as a
most warlike people, cruel and merci-
less, yet the truth is that they sprang
from tribes peaceful, generous and mild.
and that the extension of English in
fuence, the tricks of English invaders,
the robbery committed in the name of
civilization, and behind which was the
covetous greed for the gold placers and
the fat pasture lands of the Mashnas,
Bechuanas and the Matabeles made
them what they are. When the history
of these troubles is written in the calm
of reason, and by impartial pens, it
will visit upon the Englishmen of the
middle and close of this century judg-
barbarities of the South African con-
quest.

the impression it was hoped it would.
Mr.. Bryan, however, met with a
much more cordial reception outside of
New York city. He visited many
places and made speeches which were
received with so much favor that
he is encouraged to believe that he has
an excellent chance for carrying the
state. He may be altogether too SAN
guine, but it must be admitted that the
crowds that greeted him at all
the towns he visited were very
large, and that the enthusiasm that
was shown wherever he delivered
