The Generals Were Here.

The free special train of palace
cars bearing Generals Alger,
Howard and Sickles, and Corporal
Tanner arrived in Garnett last Sat
urday evening, at about halfpast 3
o'clock. Between 2 500 and 5000
people gathered at the N N. & D.
depot to hear and see these agents
of Mark Hanna.
If the speakcrs offered any ar
gument in support OF their cause,
it was not observable. All OF
them appealed to the prejudices of
the people and undertook TO stir up
sectional hatred. They fought. the
war over again, and also abused the
Populists and all who oppose mod
ern Republicanism.
Sickles came out on the platform
with his hat on and a cigar in his
mouth. He did not remove his hat
until he was told to do so by one of
Lis companions. He seemed to i'm
aginc that he owed no respec to the
many ladies who were present. By
the way, Sickles is "A Mckinley
Cleveland Palmer Democrat.
Very little enthusiasm was ex-
hibited. At the close of the last
speech, Gen. Howard told the ladies
to take of their hats and get out
their handkerchicis and wave a sa-
lutte, which they did.
Several persons went through the
train, and one young Republican
remarked that the sights he saw
made him ashamed. There were
two many evidences of liquid re-
lreShmenis 20 suit even a prOhl-
btion Republican.
This junketing tour of generals
who are drawing thousands of dol
lars from the government annually
was hardly calculated to enthuse
the old veteran who carried Il mus
ket, and who can't now ride on
railroad train without paying full
fare, especially when he reflects
that these former officers ride
around in the finest of cars free,
and draw good pay for doing so.
The old soldier who draws his little
oittance of a pension isn't carried |
away by the assumed enthusiasm of
he generals who are living on the
at of the land. One old soldier re-
marked "Well, there was a time

Billy Bryan.

Oh, the sun shall shine forever,
And the world with music ring,
And the winter days shall never
Hush the bluebird's song o
spring
When we've won the fight for sill
By ballot battle fair,
And have seated Billy Bryan
In the White House chair.
For the money kings shall grumble
At the Yankee eagles scheam,
And the factory spindles rumble
To the hiss of rushing steam,
And the British lion cover
In his black and bloody lair
When we've seated Billy Bryan
In the White House chair.
All the land shall glow with
gladness,
From the mountains to the sea.
Aud there'll be no place for sadness
When the workingman is free,
And the shining road to heaven
Shall be up the shining stair
When we've seated Billy Bryan
In the White House chair.
All, the shaggy wolf of hunger
Shall be driven from the land
When the good old "daddy dol
lars"
In the grilay toiler's hand ;
And the earth shall grnan with
plenty
And the poor man have his share
When we've seated Billy Bryan
In the White House chair.

The governorship in Georgia

of the state ticket is probably
Democratic. Tom Watson's dis

Florida went Democratic, but

THE PROSPECT FOR CUBA.

One OF the closest students OF the
war in Cuba is the New York Sun
Rana daily sizes the matter up from
all Sides and the following from the
last issue OF the Sun will prove Of in
terest:
THE two main divisions of the revo-
lutionary army have been separated
from each other for several weeks,
during which time the division under
Gen, Gomez, who is east OF Havana,
has been unusually inactive, while the
one under Gen. Maceo. who is west Of
Havana, has been in constant com bat
with the greater part OF the effective
force Of the Spanish army. 1t had
been the plan Of Spain, after Gomez
moved his division in the easterly di-
rection, TO Concentrate an overwhelm
ing body OF troops against Maceo's di-
vision, crush it completely, and put an
end 10 the revolution IN one half OF the
island. For this purpose the great
Spanish military square was formed
arouns Maceo, and was strengthened
with earthworks, trenches, barbed-
wire barriers, and an abundance Of
artillery. The Spanish military ex-
perts decided that the square could not
be broken, and as the revolutionists
were inside Of 1t, it was only necessary
that Spain should wait for the fitting
time To fall upon them.
Hence when Maceo took the often
sive a few days ago attacked and
broke the Spanish line, fought a
pitched battle in which he was sue
cessful, and routed the large body
upon which he had fallen, he perform
ed an act which Spain had not been
prepared for, 1t was the most sangui-
nary engagement OF the war which
was fought At Labhusa on April Is,
and at the end of it Maceo retired to a
stronghold in the mountains near by,
which Spain is not likely to try to cap.
ture. The defeat OF Spain upon this
occasion was a very serious incident
for her, not only because many hun
dreds OF her men were killed or
wounded, but also because il demon
strated the worthlessness Of the Span
lsh plan Of campaign against the west
ern division OF the revolutionary army.
Numerous detachments OF Maceos
cavalry have recently crossed the
Spanish strong wall in every direction
aud have so often put the enemy upon
the defensive as to give the 50, 900
troops along the wall debihtating
sense Of insecurity. Maceo has given
proof that he is not fenced in; the en-
emy have learned that the war must
20 on for no one knows how long.
such is the condition OF military
affairs to the westward Of Havana at
this time
1T Is very unlikely that the Spanish |
generals will again seek for battle /
there before the arrival Of the day, /
which is close at hand, when the Span. f.
ism troops must retire to their barracks /.
for the summer.
THE spring campaign has closed .
disastrously for Spain, and discredit-
ably for WeYler IL has closed with
the revolution on the offensive, Spain
