II is very evident that the Spanish gov
ernment does not want any war with the

war with the United States means certain
defeat FOR Spain. At the same time there is
no occasion for any bullying on the part of
the United States. What the people of
this country object to in the course of
Spain is bullying brutality to Cuba, and it
is no more than is due TO humanity that
this country should not permit a resort to
savagery in our neighboring island. At

Sunday Street Work

How dangerous is the mixing of church
and state is just now shown in Los Angeles
in row over Sunday street work. Re-
Gently petition was presented to the
council protesting against the doing of
street work on Sunday. This seems an
innocent enough proposition on the face
OF it, and if another view of the matter
had mot been presented, would doubt
ess have been adopted. But now come
the Seventh Day Adventists and protest
against any Sunday legislation. because
they keep Saturday, and not Sunday,
and any restriction against Sunday work
would operate TO their detriment. Their
opinions. of course, are entitled to consid-
Grafton. the same as anybody s else, and
the Probability is that the council had bet
ter let the matter alone and not legislate
about il at all, for action in favor of one
faction is sure to be against another, and
nation whose pioneers have left other
countries for religious freedom had better
go slow about abridging that freedom
themselves. Pasadena Star.

of delegates and spectators wnen the
chaplain of the occasion offered q pray
er in moderate tone of voice. When
the reverend gentleman concluded and
stepped back to his seat he was greeted
with storm OF applause from about
three-fourths of the audience. They
supposed he had been making a speech,
and therefore the proper thing to do
WAS to applaud him.
A similar ridiculous episode is liable
to occur in any great political gather
ing.
In the interests of consistency, de-
cordm and true religion the public
chaplain, whether paid salary out of
the peoples treasury or invited to pray
gratuitously on some special occasion,
should be respectfully dispensed with.
His services have too long been USE
less formality, q waste of time, reli-
glous burlesque and an un-American

Upon young, untroubled face.

VENEZUELA has some trees, the area
of its unbroken forests being estimated
ct 200,000,000 acres, including the finest
mahogany, rosewood, ebony and satin
wood forests in the world. The exports
from that country consist largely of
these woods, coffee. hides, cocoa and
cattle. The value of the annual coffee
crop is more than $13,000,O00. The
country is also rich in minerals, but
its resources of this character have
been but little developed. Still,
about $l,00G000 in gold was
mined during 1895. Venezuela is

many $2.100,0O0, and from France
100000. There is little doubt about
the country affording wonderful
field for enterprising capital, but it
is altogether probable that great ex-
ploitstion of its possibilities will be
deferred until governmental stability
