A correspondent Of an eastern
paper gives in brief the reasons
why the Cubans fght-taxes,
debt, discrimination against them
in trade, oppression, disfranchise-
ment. OF the TWEEN ty six millions
paid in taxes, barely 2 per cent
goes to the island itself. The
Cuban pays twice what Span
lard pays in Europe and gets abso,
lutely nothing in return. A debt
of four hundred millions is laid on
the people of Cuba, the heaviest
tax by nearly twofold of any
country in the world. And mean
while the ports are practically
closed to foreign commerce. Ship
ments, even Of American flour, go
first to Spain and afterwards to
Cuba. All the cost is added to the
goods the Cuban buys. It is shown
further, that by the election laws
only about three in a hundred of
the Cubans have a vote. Scarcely
one has ever sat in the Spanish
Cortes. All the offices are held
by Spaniards, and the corruption
among officials is almost beyond
belief. Even the reforms some
times reluctantly granted by the
Cortes are not carried out. Cam
pos himself did not dare guarantee
their enforcement. Farmer s

BicyclitiS.

Ricyclitis is the name of new
disease induced by excessive BIZ
cycling. It's symptoms are extreme
nervousness and a craze for riding
the wheel at all times. The vi
bration of the wheel does it, and
the effects are serious. But no
one has anything of the kind from
using the st. Paul & Duluth Rail
road. The comfort of the ride
and the freedom from worry cause
one to want to ride again and
again, but there is no nervousness
only a sense of comfort and
enjoy ment. This has made the
Duluth Short Line very popular
with the travelling public, for
this line has fast trains equipped
up to date, and they run smoothly
at hours convenient to the bust
ness man as we'll as the tourist.
Always take the Duluth Short
Line and be in with the people.
Ticket agents will cheerfully fur
nish maps, circulars, general in
formation, ETC., or they may be
obtained direct by writing to ".

The Constant1nople correspon-
dent of the London Times writes,
under date of July 10: Among
the symptoms of the prevalent
economic prostration may be
mentioned the fact that the num-
Der OF sheep and oxen killed by
Constantinople butchers in May
and June was less by 40 per cent
than it was in the corresponding
months of 1895. Merchants, and
indeed, all business folk, are re-
ducing their establishments;
brokers who a year ago had fpll
work for ten clerks now scarcely
employ two, and shopkeepers have
dismissed half their ssistants,
male and female. This loss of
occupation to so large a number
of bread winners necessarily causes
much distress IN the class to which
they belong. Farmers Review.
