SUPERVISOR Branch's little per-
sonal organ proclaims that he was in
no wise to blame for the equalization
of last fall. Like the guilty small
boy trying to shield himself, he cries
out, "Johnny Mutchler did i'll" Let
us see; Supervisor Branch was a
member of the equalization commit
tee, wasn't he? Will some one kind
ly tell us where to find his minority
report dissenting from the report of
that committee? He submitted no
such dissenting report, but on the
contrary signed the report that was
adopted and was equally responsible
with other members of the committee
for that report being unanimous from
the committee. 1t would be a wise
thing for Lawrence to elect a re-
publican this spring, who will not
shirk responsibility for his official
actions. 'Johnny Mutchler did it!'' is
the veriest child's play and school
boy excuse.

London Chronicle.
Whether such action precipitates
war or not, the NoRrHERNER believes
it is right for the United States to
recognize the belligerence Of the
Cubans at this time, and our govern
ment should not be swerved from
the plain course of duty by any idle
threats or even by genuine rumblings
of the possibility of war.

War Not Probable.

The passage of the senate resolu-
ton calling upon the president to
recognize the Cuban patriots as bel
ligerents, and the angry threat
enings Of Spanish mobs and the
stoning of the American consulate at
Barcelona because of the probability
that this country will recognize such
belligerence, have furnished fresh
occasion for certain American news
papers aud statesmen who play upon
the patriotic passions of our people for
their popularity, to try to excite the
American public to a warlike fever.
Such talk of war is as premature and
improbable of realization as was the
scare over the relations of the United
States with Great Britain concerning
the Venezuelan matter. The fact is,
we are peace-loving people, and do
not desire war with Spain or any
one else. On the other baud, we
will certainly not permit Spain or
any other country to so impose upon
our good nature as TO stone our
coDsulates abroad and trample on our
national dignity and honor with
safety and impunty.
In the present instance, however,
it seems most improbable that Spain,
who has her hands full with the Gu
ban insurrectionists and who is al
ready in severe financial straits, can
be so foolish as to seriously contem-
plate entering upon war with the
United States. Spain has already
declared that the government is in
no wise responsible for the work
of the lawless mobs, and has
been prompt in its disavowal
of responsibility for the outrages
. and in proffering the usual
diplomatic amends for mob vio-
lence of this character. Such action
on the part of Spain will end all
thoughts of war because of the Bar
celona incident, and that without
any loss of honor or dignity on the
part of either nation. AS to the rec
ognition of Cuba, hot headed Spain
will indulge in a great deal of bra
vado and buster, but it is not likely
that she will go to war because Of
the United States exercising its
national and international privilege
in this respect. In event, however,
of the complications being more SER
ious than they at present appear and
war being incurred, there could be
no doubt as to the outcome. The
United States would be the victor
and would be in position to dictate
the terms of peace, in which case
Cuba would doubtless be added to
Uncle Sans domain. None knows
this better than Spain herself, and
this of itself would be powerful
deterrent to prevent Spain from fore
ing hostilities. 1t is interesting to
see what English journals say would
be the outcome of such war:
at would be sheer madness to
kick against the pricks and inaugu-
rate the costly comedy of ruinous
war with the United States" LON

SPAIN was very prompt to recog-
nlze the beIligerence of the Confed-
crates during Uncle Sans late un-
pleasantness, and Cuba was made
the convenient rendezvous of Con-
federate privateers all during the
war of the rebellion. Now the
situation is reversed; it is SPANS OK

THE Telegraph says Michigan
wool growers have the five republic
can senators from the silver produc-
ing states to thank for preventing
them from getting prices for their
wool during the next year or two.
If the Telegraph refers to the pro-
lection proposed to wool by the def
cheney tariff bill, such is not the
case. Had all the FIVE silver senators
voted for consideration of the bill
when it was last before the senate, it
would still have lacked one vote of
receiving majority of all the votes
cast. The Michigan wool growers
have the democratic and populist
majority to thank for the failure OF
the revenue measure.

lT is a strange coincidence that
the amount of the national debt that
was paid during President Harrison's
administration, is practically the
same as the amount of new bonds
issued during Cleveland's present
term. s259,074,200 was paid be-
tween March 4, 1888, and March a,
1892, and 62,315,400 is the in
crease of the national debt from
March 4, 1892, to the present time.

IT is not strange, nor is it any evi.
dence of crookedness that a report Of
expenditures made by the superin-
tendents of the poor in October and
covering a year ending with October,
should not agree with a report of the
county treasurer of expenditures for
the same purpose made in January
and covering year ending with
January. And then the superintend-
ents report all orders drawn, while
the treasurer only reports the orders
actually paid; and this variance, at
times, is necessarily quite large, as
vouchers often remain out for a
considerable length of time before
they are presented for payment.
Parties who profess to see in this
matter any discrepancy, show clearly
their ignorance of public affairs.
