HOME RULE FOR CUBA.

Under pressure from Mr.. Cleveland,

have been often promised by Spain, but
have never been carried into effect, and
the only guarantee the Cubans will
have that those atpresent proposed will
be put in operation will be the frm In
sistenee OF the United States on their
enforcement.
Spain has discovered that the subjsc-
ton OF the insurgents is q herculsan
task, and she has also found out that
the interest OF the people OF the United
States In the affairs of Cuba is intense.
Indeed, so strong are the sympathies of
our people fox the struggling Cubans
that 1t is probable. II left to free and
full expression Of their desires in the
matter, armed Intervention would be
demanded without delay. President
Cleveland, however, at present stands
in the way of carrying out any such
programme, and if Spain ia wise she
will accept his suggestions without
question.
Even then, encouraged by the gu pport
and sympathy of the American people, Il
Is very doubtful whether the Insurgents
would accept anything but acknowl-
edgement OF absolute independence
which the Dons will never consent TO-.
unless compelled by the strength and
resources of the United States. Alto

AS ALREADY foreshadowed by the
dispatches from Massachusetts. OK.
Governor William e. Russell has re-
ceived the endorsement of the Demo-
Gratis OF that State as the nominee Of
the Chicago convention for President.
Governor Russell is very popular in the
Bay State, and is altogether an able and
promising young man, but from the
present trend of Democratic politics, so
far as the Presidential nomination is
concerned, he has hardly a shadow Of q
show for the position to which he as
pires. Besides. President Cleveland,
the great Democratic promoter of
''sound money" doctrines, through
Secretaries Carlisle, Smith and Morton,
has not yet said that he would refuse
a nomination for third term, and
until he does speak 1t would seem the
height Of presumption for any one else
OF that party on the same side of the
money question to aspire to the honor.

The Republican tickle. for city offices,

The Republican ticket for city offices,
like the Democratic ticket put in the
field last week, has some pretty weak
spots in it. II vigorous campaign is
to be conducted by both the contending
elements 1t is more than probable that
some Democrats, as we'll as some Re-
publicans, will be deprived of tasting
the sweets Of office life during the next
two years. The weak spots are not hid
from the people; they are pretty clearly
defined, and the people Of Roanoke will
have only themselves to blame II they
fail to select from the two tickets off,
cials who will faithfully and intelii-
gently administer the affairs of the city.

which is to enter the field of Chinese

Two Englishmen are directing the
formation of the syndicate from oppo-

now in Chicago concluding the deal and
the other is in China. where a personal
acquaintance with Ii Hung Chang and
the members of the Tsung Ii Yamen
will be the basis, it is expected, of the

is Louis Spitzel, who since the worlds

The man who is attending to the
formation of the company in Chicago
is John P. Grant, who for the last six
weeks has been a guest at the Virginia
hotel. Mr.. Grant is brother of Sir
George Macpherson-Grant. of Balm:

he is son of the late Sir John Macpher-
son-Grant. He is railroad promoter
aud a man of considerable commercial
interests in his own country.
The object for which the English
American-Chinese Railway Construc-
ton company was formed is one of the
most stupendous railway projects ever
entertained by any country. It's COM
pletion will mean $500 miles of railway
