A Key West, Florida, dispatch of September lst, gives an account of n massacre of Spanish troops by Cuban revolutionists, which is an indication that the latter have accepted the gauge of battle (no quarter) presented by the home government. A detachment of 150 picked Spanish troops, oD the way to succor an approaching convoy, were killed The slaughter was most com plcte, as but one of that number re- tained sufficient life to give an account of the appalling disaster, and he was left on the ensanguined field as dead. In the meantime larger force of Gu bans had captured the convoy and ac- companying soldiers. The capture re- suited in securing for the revolutionists 200, 900 cartridges and 300 rifles, be- sides provisions, clothing and medical supplies. The much-needed guns and ammunition, thus obtained, heightened the importance of the respective en- counters. The loss of Spanish troops should not be taken into consideration for the reason that the parental govern. ment has superabundance of material that "would fill ditch as we'll as better men,"

Will Men be Traitors?

Can an American vote for Mckinley and be loyal According to the pub lished report at the time in the latter part of July, the representatives of twenty-one of the largest banking houses in Europe met by appointment at the office of Morgan & Co.,, in Wall street, and agreed from that time forth, in connection with certain associates, in this country, to supply the United States treasury with all needed gold to keep up the treasury reserve until after election, without my bonds, or other compensation; giving as reason that the benefits which would accrue to these foreign bankers by McKinley's election would more than compensate them for this sacrifice from now until election; and that if this was not done until election new bonds would have to be issued, and this would defeat Me Kinley's election; and since that agree iucut WuS IuiuC tuSSc DhuhCiS, and associates Tn this country, have been carrying from half million to a million dollars of gold daily to the United States treasury and taking groenbacks for it, without any bonds. or pay, in order that they may secure McKinley's election and retain the gold standard in the future in the United States. From this it will be seen that the money power of Europe is openly expendiug money in this country to promote McKinley's election, and there by retain the gold standard here. In their opinion the gold standard md McKinley's election is necessary in or der to increase their tribute from this country in the future and that the gold standard will increase their tribute none can dispute. Therefore, any man who votes for Mckinley votes for the gold standard in the interest of Europe and against the interest of the United States, and is as much of a traitor to

summarized their wants, not the least of which is the university tax.
 Identifying the capitol grounds is another expense which the Territory is called upon to defray. 1.-The grounds, " according to Gov. Hughes report, comprise ten acres, which are made attractive with driyeways, walks, we'll kept lawns, flowers, roses, etc., and are a credit to the commission in charge;" and the governor might have added, "and furnish a splendid public park to the city of Phoenix and for the especial benefit of the real estate speculators booming the capitol addition free oi any cost to them whatever"
 Before entering upon further obliga- tions it will be the duty of our legisla- tive representatives to scan the Terri. torial debtor side of the ledger. Their official action should be gauged by the rule, ''be just before you are generous. '

OUR PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS.

The dormitory of the university has been completed, and it is one of the finest and most substantial public buildings in the Territory. It is con- structed of stone of a very superior quality. The interior is also substan- tial and up to the highest workman ship. The university tank has also been completed, it being the largest in the Territory save those of the rail road. It has capacity of 50,000 gal Ions, and is at a height which will give a pressure that will insure protection to all of the university buildings in case of fire. Thus the management is doing substantial work for this i'm pOrtant educational and Territorial in stitution. Star.
 The lovely building described by the Star doubtless is charming picture when contrasted with the shantieF which are gingerly provided by the public for the instruction of youths, sons and daughters of "howers of wood and drawers of water" in rural districts.
 The common schools here referred to, which were inaugurated twenty seven years ago, have not fructifed, by req son of the erection of collosal college buildings where high priced professors are expected to furbish intellectual bumps submitted to their charge, while youths of rustic districts are turned loose after having mastered the three R's-"readin', 'ritin' and 'rithmetic."
 The answer to this will be: "the latchstring of the respective colleges are always within reach of applicants for admission" and in order to keep it there the institutions here referred to, have it in contemplation to petition the Nineteenth Legislative Assembly of our Territory, soon to convene, for more soup.

REPUBLICAN INCONSISTENCY
 TOWARD SILVER.

The cardinal principle of the Repub- lican doctrine Is protection to Ameri- can industries, and the keystone of protection IS the home market. The theory of the development of the home market through discriminating tariff which encourages home industry has been elaborately developed and has proved an effective argument. Theo- retically it is benign principle, and would be in practice if its benefits were equally distributed; if capital remained satisfied with the generous profits which the monopoly of the home market gives it and did not endeavor to destroy home competition also by the formation of trusts, and at the same time to lower wages through the importation of cheap labor from Europe. The duplicity of those who have grown rich under the guise of protection to home industry has been pretty thoroughly exposed, and the inconsistency of the Republi- cans in the present campaign is glar- ingly shown in their hostility to silver, pre-emiuently an American product The United States produces more than one-fourth of the worlds output of sil- yer, and the countries of North and South America together, more than three. .fourths of it, and yet We permit England, non-producer, and a con sumer of silver to fix the price
 The importance of the mining of precious metals is not fully appreciated even in mining communities. The value of the wheat and corn crops, and of some other natural products and of manufactures, while greater than that of the silver or gold product, never theless, presents this important differ snce. While the products of the soil and of most industries are perishable, the precious metals are indestructable, and every ounce of gold or silver pro- duced adds to the permanent wealth of the country and the world.
 Silver is in no sense "a raw mater ial, |" as much labor and many processes are represented in its production, and the accruing industrial benefits are i'm perfectly understood and appreciated. The mining, sampling, milling, concen- trating, smeiting and refining of silver and its by-products, and freighting the ores, fuel and supplies by team and railway, represent diversified interests and the large employment of labor. Then consider the number of foundries and machine shops where the fires would never go out nor the music of the hammer never cease while the silver industry prospered.
 Considered from this standpoint alone the eastern states would be benefited by the revival of silver mining almost to as great an extent as the western states. It IS here that the home market theory is exemplified. The revival of silver mining would give profitable em' ployment to eastern capital, and would set the spindles and wheels of eastern factories in motion, for tue western people are consumers of eastern pro ducts, and when prosperous they are liberal spendcrs. No more profitable market could be found in the world than the western states, fl the free coin age of silver was restored. Every in dustry would be benefited, and general prosperity would follow.

ALLIANCES SLOW PROGRESS
Scarcity of Business Before the
Convention This Morning.
Committeest to Report This Afternoon,
and the Financial Question VIII
PrObab be Disposed OF.

The Supreme Council of the National
Farmers Alliance aud Industrial Union
transacted but little business at their ses-
sion this morning.
The delegates were not in the humor for
business Maybe that silver resolution
which they knew they must face, either this
afternoon or tomorrow, has cast a shadow
over their spirits. Still the shadow has
Il silver lining. and that is what majority
of them want.
An hour was spent in informal discussion
and il was IL O'Clock when President Will
let's called the assenblage to order. After
the newspaper men had made graceful
retreat from the room and the door was
,-.,.rtI ~. Alliance was ready for business.
But business was a scarce article.
None OF the principal committees were
ready to report and there was nothing TO
discuss. The report of the secretary and
treasurer has been prepared, but the finan-
ciai portion OF this will not be made public.
shortly before noon recess was taken
until O'Clock.
Immediately after adjournment the com
mittee appointed yesterday TO go Dciore
the House Committee on Banking and Cur
rency started for the Capitol.
Al th. session this afternoon the COM
mittees on resolutions and also on consti-
tuition ar. expected to report. The former
committee may not prepare its report uhti
after the return of the committee. which
visited the Capitol.
Secretary Duncan said this morning that
the Alliance would probably finish lis
business tonight, although great deal
vet remains To be accomplished. Among
other things is the election OF Officers.
And then there is that awfulsilver debate.
But few delegations arrived last night
and the total list will not exceed hall
hundred.
A handsome banner was presented the
Alliance last night by Mr.. Bladonburg oi
Texas. 1t was embroidered by a lady MEM
ber of the order and contains the inscrip-
tons: The Farmers State Alliance oI

In the center of the banner is the design
