CUBA.-For ten days or more the
most encouraging reports have been
coming from Cuba. 1t is said now
that the Rebel armies are advancing
on Havana, the capital city of the
Island, in three divisions and are
nearly in sight Of the city. If this
be true the claim that Cuban indie
pendence is near at hand does not
seem extravaganza. While our gov
eminent has been neutral the SYM
pathies of our people are with the
insurgents.

WHEN the Morrison tariff bill pro.
vldlng for a horizontal cut in tariff
rates was under consideration in the
House some years ago, the Republic.
cans denounced it as an absurdity
and as showing Incidence on the
part Of the Democrats of the WAYS
and Means committee. Week be.
fore last the Republicans Of the
House passed tariff bill the leading
feature of which is horizontal
raise of 10 per cent. in tariff duties.
This OF course was all right. The

The TARIFF BILL.-Judging from
recent speeches made by Senator
Sherman and other Republican Sena-
tors, 1t is more than probable that
an attempt will be made to pass the
tariff bill recently sent over from
the House, to which, however, many
amendments may be made. And
whether the bill will pass the Senate
or not depends entirely on the posi-
ton OF the P0pulist contingent in
that body. They hold the balance
OF power, but we do not see how.
under the circumstances, they can
consistently vote To burden the peo-
pie with additional tariff taxation.

measure why didn't the Republicans

THE MONROE DoCTRINE.-Here
it is as first declared by President
James Monroe i'm his message to
Congress Dec. End, 1928:
In the wars of the European
Powers, in matters relating to them
selves, we have never taken any
part, nor does il cOmport with our
policy TO do ST.. II is only when
our rights are invaded or seriously
menaced that we resent injuries or
make preparations for defense
With the movements of this hemis-
phere we are, Of necessity, more inn
mediately connected, and by causes
which must be obvious to all en-
lightened and impartial observers
The political system of the Allied
Powers is essentially different in
this respect from that of America
The difference proceeds from that
which exists in their respective gov
ernments. And to the defense of
our own, which has been achieved
by the loss of so much blood and
treasure, and matured by the wis
dom of the most enlightened riti-
zens, and under which we have en-
joyed unexampled felicity, the whole
nation is devoted. We owe it,
therefore, to candor and to the ami
cable relations existing between the
United States and those Powers, to
declare that we should consider any
attempt on their part to extend their
system to any portion of this hemis-
phere as dangerous to our peace and
safety. With the existing colonies
or dependencies of any European
Power we have not intcrtered and
shall not interfere; but with the
governments who have declared
their independence we have on great
consideration and on just principles
acknowledged, we could not view
any interpOsitiOn for the purpose of
them, or controlling in
any other manner their destiny, by
any European Power, in any other
light than rs the manifestation of an |
unfriendly disposition toward the
United States.

Ice FROM THE UPPER ARA
Yankee farmer in Brazil uses a kite
for the purpose of obtaining ice
from the upper air. He fills tin
can with water and sends it to the
height of three miles, where it is
promptly frozen. After sufficient
interval the kite is rapidly hauled in
and the cake of ice is secured. The
inventor is so pleased with his toy
that he now proposes to send up a
kite $50 feet long by a steel wire ca
BILE. Under the kite will be sus-
pended pully, over which runs an
endless chain bearing cans attached
to hooks. The cans will be filed
with water, and the speed of the belt
upon which they run will be regu-
lated so that the topmost cans will
be converted into ice sufficiently hard
to stand the downward journey
This is certainly the most original
ice-machine of which we have ever
heard. We have the authority of
the South american Journal for this
kIte-hying.
HERE is what the papers are say
ing: The hotel Keepers of st. Louis
have determined to make hay while
the National Republican Convention
shines. The managers Of one PreSi-
dental candidate will pay $500

the Reed management will each
have to pay not less than $40, 900 for
the accommodation of their boom

Kinley and Reed headquarters will
be paid for at the rate of from $3.50 |
to $500 day. Sleeping rooms will |
be fitted up with from six to ten cots
and they will be charged for at the

brand was only human, and he had al
ready learned enough of Hester's char
acter to make him fear that she might
suspect his motive in shifting the re-
sponsibility. AS a matter Of fact, he
did her an injustice in this; but when
,cowardice, or venality, or vice, or any
other human weakness or wickedness
once undermines the fortress of char
acter, there are many uncanny shapes

aimlessly about the village, trying to

compromise between his weakness and

that curioasly insistent urging which
finds a parallel in the desire to see how
near one can creep to the brink of
precipice without being oyerbalanced.

would make brave one hesitate, and
