The Spanish inform us that Gen. Wey-
Ter will be civilized in his methods of
warfare If the insurgents will refrain
from burning the crops of the sugar plan
tations, thus shutting off the Spanish
revenue from that quarter. The cool
impudence of this appears when one stops
to remember tina. the Union generals,
toward tho close of the Rebellion found il
expedient to leave the Shenandoah valley
in such destitute condition that it was
commonly said a crow dying across would
be compelled to carry his rations 1t may
be. as reported, that the insurgents will
find it more to their advantage to gathcs
the crops than to prevent the raising OF
them. But whatever they choose to do in
this matter will afford the Spaniards no
excuse for shooting innocent people and
entering upon the atrocious warfare,
which Gen. Campos refused to wage.

Explanation That Doesn't Explain.

President Cleveland and Secretary Car
Isle both express themselves as greatly
delighted at the results of the bond bids.
No one will begrudge them whatever de
light they derive from the transaction
They evidently do not expect that fly in
the ointment, with which they would
besmear themselves, to be overlooked for
Mr.. Cleveland is reported rs saying that
matters were altogether different when
the syndicate deal was made. He does
not go into detail to explain wherein they
were different which he surely ought to
do if he expects to eradicate the prevalent
idea in the public mind respecting that
unfortunate dicker. He contents himself
| merely with this glittering generality
that contract helped us out at time
when forty eight hours delay might have
produced serious results. - Unfortunately,
| too, he does not explain how such colossal
| firancers as he and Secretary Carlisle

that forty eight hours menaced the
financial standing of the country and
made it his imperative duty to sell to a
bond trust for 1.04 |. bonds worth at the
very least estimate 40. Perhaps after
all it is better that he didn't go farther in
his explanation. 1t would have done no
time and words. The public long since
decided that it must make the most of the
poor bargain consummated in 1892 that
| those who dance must pay the fiddler,
| though the Kidding be as expensive as
Nero's of old.

bringing prosperity to this country but
the reverse

Since Prof. Roentgen discovered that
the bones of human hand, for instance,
could be photographed almost us plainly
as though they were not covered with
flesh, there have been many who claim to
have done the same thing before.
Strangely enough they had forgotten to
mention their wonderful discovery to any
one, SO it seems but proper to regard
Prof Rocptgen as the discoverer. But
there is now probability that his
discovery is not just what he supposed it
to be- A New York chemist has been
making experiments without the vacuum
tube and without light, by placing the
plate holder between two brass plates and
turning on the electric current. He
thinks the so called Cathode photographs
are due to the action in the magnetic
field.

Presidential Electors Must all be
Chosen in State Convention.
HEADQUARTERS
REPUBLICAN, STATE COMMITTEE,
AUGUSTA, MAINE, JAN, IS. 1896.

To the Republicans OF Maine:-Prior to 1882
two Presidential electors at large, correspond
ing to the two United States senators, were
nominated in State convention, and the re-
naming electors, corresponding to the men,
bers of the United States House of Represen-
tatives were nominated by the several con-
gressional district conventions.
The passage of the Australian Ballot law en-
tirely changed the procedure. Under the law
all Conventions are portion of our election
system, and this ballot act requires that can
didates to be voted for by the Vote RS through
out the whole state must be placed in nomina-
ton by Convention representing no less a
constituency than the whole state. Hence. all
the candidates of party for Presidential cleo
tors must be nominated in State Convention
and have therefore included in the call six
electors.

Inc iatest statistics regarding our i'm
ports show that the past year raw wool
imports increased over $50 per cent over

wooden manufacturers in this country
hasn't increased as compared with the
conditions existing under the normal
operations OF the Mckinley tariff.
