Col. G. A. Lincoln, of Cowley coun-
ty, is engaged in making series of
lectures in the school houses of the diff
ferent western and southern counties
of Kansas. AT present he is working
in this county. He devotes two even
ings at each school house whenever he
hnds it possible. On last Friday and
Saturday nights he lectnred at Forest
City and onMonday andTuesday nights
he was at Sharon. The Colonel is post
ed on the issues of the day and is a
good speaker. He has the records of
national affairs of the past forty years
in his possession and has them so com
pletely studied that they are constantly
on his tongues end. We have spoken
with a number of PERSONS who have
heard Col. Lincoln and they all pro-
nounce him as power in the reform
field. Everywhere he goes he has good
audiences but he says there is room for
Improvement. This is thing that the
people OF the county as we'll as the
state should not overlook, /. D.. to at
tend these public meetings. Turn out
to hear the issues of the day discussed,
study these matters after you have
heard them discussed and conclude for
yourself as to whether what has been
said is true or false. Col. Lincoln says
be intends to lecture at every school
house in Barber county and this will
give all our citizens an opportunity to
hear him. He carries recommends
tions from GhSi-Ian Breidenthal and
other prominent men who are capable
of determining what or who good lee
turer is, which proves that he is among
the best men OF the state in this par
ticular calling. He is related to our
martyred President Lincoln aud his
speeches show that he is indeed chip
out of the old block. GO and hear him
when he is in your neighborhood.

in regard to Cuba, President Cleveland
replied that the position of this Gov
eminent was as stated in the last an
nuaI message to Congress-one of ira
ditional sympathy with people strug-
Cling for autonomy and freedom-but
nevertheless, this Government felt its
plain duty to be to honestly fulfill
every international obligation.
The President further said that every
precaution had been taken that if occa-
sion should arise in Cuba the United
States could assert itself with force,
but he did not think that the occasion
would arise.
Secretary Lamont expressed his indi-
vidual opinion that some authoritative
statement should be made to put an
end to these disturbing and unjusti
fed rumOrs of wars
MADRID, Nov. 14.-United States
Minister Taylor has issued note de-
claring that the Spanish Minister of
Foreign 9ffairs, the Duke of Tetuan,
has always acted in a manner calculat-
ed to prevent a disagreement between
the United States and Spain.
La Epocha, publishes a statement
denying the report that Senior Dupuy
de LONE will be retired from his post
as Spanish Minister in Washington.

RECOGNITION OF THE CUBANs.

Resolution Passed by the Bolivian
Congress.
LIMA Peru), Nov. Something
of a sensation has been caused here by
the news received yesterday from Su-
ere, Bolivia, of a favorable report made
by the Committee on Foreign Affairs
of the Bolivian Chamber of Deputies
on a resolution of recognize the Cuban
insurgents as belligerents.
Upon hearing the news, the Spanish
envoy to Peru, Senior de Vanello, who
is also accredited to Bolivia, immedi-
ately set out for Sucre to look after
Spanish interests in that capital, and
presumably to lodge a protest on be-
half of his Government against the
proposed action.
Further advices received to-day from
Sucre show that the Congress had an
exciting and stormy session to consider
the resolution. The President of the
chamber declared the resolution adopt
ed and the Senate proceeded to approve
it in the midst of loud protests from
excited members and great confusion
in the Senate chamber, so that the ses-
sion finally had to be suspended.

1.-The fuse will burn out" said the
superintendent lin the event OF one OF
our wires falling over one of those be-
longing to the electric light company.
The fuse burns out and the connection
is broken and danger prevented to the
switch, to which the wire runs after
leaving the fuse.
Il found when / investigated the
plant after my arrival in Honolulu, that
it was in a deplorable condition. The
poles were nearly all old and rotten
and in many instance the wires, in
stead of being fastened to insulators,
were wrapped around the cross arms.
So far we have erected about sixty
poles on King street and these will have
cross arms with porcelain knobs affixed
for holding the wires. Twenty of these
are on each arm. This will obviate
much of the difficulty now experienced
by subscribers.
You have noticed, perhaps, trOu-
BILE in getting Central" l mean by
that that you find dozen or fifty
people calling over the same wire at
once. This is because in some sections
of the city there are from fifty to seven
ty-five telephones on one calling wire.
l propose to reduce the number to
eighteen. As it is if anything should
happen to that one wire the fifty or
seventy-five subscribers would find it
impossible to communicate with the
office.
I'VE have in stock ready for the i'm
provements to be made about 125 poles
and $50 more on the way; 20 miles of
y inch galvanized steel rope and 100
miles of telephone wire. The cables
are of two-inch lead pipe, each con-
tanning 100 wires. The cables are
hung on the heavy steel rope and held
in place by pieces of galvanized iron
in circular form. The company has
fourteen linemen at work and they
are working hard
In the work room at the company's
building several men were engaged on
different things connected with the
improvements and though it may take
some time the subscribers to the tele-
phone may feel certain that the service
will be improved.

Induction Will be Materially Re-
duced - Changes in the
Methods of Work.

When Superintendent Gillespie of
the Mutual Telephone Company arriv-
ed here four months ago, and in an
interview stated that ''to rid the wires
of induction, was the least of his trou-
bles," he did so, either with a
Pickwickian sense of humor or
through ignorance of the condi-
ton of affairs. The Telephone Com
pany had been paying dividends and
to do so expenses must be cut down.
The plant could not be maintained at
a high standard of excellence and pay
dividends; the stockholders were to be
conciliated Then the subscribers, and
even the subscribers who were stock
holders began to kick and Cancellation
was again needed. The officers finally
determined that the best way to earn
money for the stockholders was to i'm
prove the service for, to use an I'M
classical expression, the service was
rotten. When it is improved there
will be more subscribers and the wear
and tear on the operators and the In
struments will be materially diminish
ed.
1.-The improvements are to be made, y
said Mr.. Gillespie, without regard
to expense. The induction so much
complained of can never be entirely
gotten rid of with the present system
in use but 1 am well satisfied that by
the changes I am making 1t will be
much less"
The cables at present enter through
the roof of the telephone building and
then come down into what appears to
be an immense switch board. Under
the new order of things the wires will
enter the roof and distribute along
hard rubber strips, each wire passing
through a hole in a copper cross piece.
Then they are stretched over a metal
frame and through another board pass
ing through a fuse.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14-In answer
to inquiries as to the foundation of
certain sensational stories in circula-
ton recently as to the trouble with
Spain, Secretary Lamont said today:
THE stories about the movement of
troops in the South are untrue and the
assumption that work on coast de-
lenses has any Significance or is being
expedited in any particular or for any
unusual purpose has no foundation.
This work has made most excellent
progress in the past year, and 1 am
making an effort to show some return
in completed defenses for the large
amount of money appropriated for
this object"

OLD Uncle Britton, who goes about the
etate publishing newspaper temporarily
in each town, has unloaded his press and
his mortgage ut Bottineau and will stop
there until the people get tired of him.
He formerly lived on the Missouri Slope,
and few tears were shed when he depart
ed. In the past ten years he has issued
newspapers at Steele. at Washburn, at
Edgeley and at Bottineau, sll defunct ex-
cept the one at Bottineau. He has been
most unfair and malicious in his criticism
of Senator Hansbrough, and last week he
turned his squirtgun on the Burlelgh
county delegation to the state conven-
ton. Britton probably doesn't like the
Missouri Slope because the Missouri
Slope didn't like Britton.
