two parties by referring to those
supporting the Chicago platform as
the Populist Democratic party.
There was a conference before the pro.
visional national committee met at
which it was decided to call a conven.
ton and
Nominate Another National Ticket.
Some of the Eastern and Southern
members opposed a third ticket at first,
but when they were told that in the
Middle states party feeling was 81 re.
garded that many Democrats would not
vote unless there was a third ticket.
then all objections from the East and
South were withdrawn and the decision
to hold a convention was unanimous.
1t was argued that as the campaign
proceeded and the Republicans began
to say harsh things of Democrats, many
of the latter would vote for Bryan and
Sewall, distasteful as the Chicago plat.
form was to them. AS the Eastern
and Southern gold standard men said
they We're for anything to defeat the
Chicago ticket and platform they
Readily Consented to the Plan
that had been outlined by the executive
committee consisting of Bragg of Wis.
consin, Bynum of Indiana, Haldeman of
Kentucky, Broadhead of Missouri and
Robbins of Illinois. The strongest oppo.
sition to a third ticket came from Rhode
Island and T~exas-from the smallest
and largest states. They We're given
the fullest consideration because of the
desire for unanimous action, which
was finally secured.

There was objection from all to holding

This leaves the Sunday law in force.
One of the leading men of the borough
explains the appearance of the OPP
ponents of the meeting, by stating that
the sentiment of the borough is so over
whelmingly in favor of quiet Sundays
that the opposition knew that there
was no sort of use in attempting to
make stand at the meeting. He
thinks that the battle was won and the

determination.

A few years ago the Hon. GEORGE GRAHAM
VEST of Missouri challenged the protected
industries to war of determination. The
protected industries declined to be exter-
minated. The Hon. GEORGE GRAHAM VEST
is now roaming obscurely over Missouri,
making speeches for BRYAN, and strug
Cling to he reelected to the Senate.
At Cincinnati last Friday the Hon. Will
LIAM JENNINGS BRYAN also went into the
determination business:
I'VE are opposing tho gold standard. Wo have
commenced war against II. II is a war to extermina
tion. We ask quarter and we give no quarter"
Fine words for n Boy Orator, but the
gold standard will decline to be extermi-
mated. The merciless BRYAN will find
something else to exterminate. VEST has
given up exterminating the protected in
dustries and is now exterminating the gold
standard himself. There is always some
thing for an ambitious exterminator to turn
his hand to.
Personally, however. we are inclined to
think that Mr.. BRYAN will not be exter-
minating next winter. 1t is much more
likely that he will lecture.

Cuba's Now Campaign Begins Well

A noticeable activity on the part of Gen.
WEYLERs forces marks the return OF the
season favorable to campaigning in Cuba.
Hard fighting in pitched battles between
bodies of considerable size has, dur
ing the last few days, taken the place
of the desultory skirmishing which
had long prevailed 1t is as II the
Captain General, encouraged by his reen-
forcements, and feeling also that 1t Is now
or never for the Spanish cause, had started
in confidently and vigorously upon his prof.
ect Of putting the insurgents henceforth on
the defensive, and ending the rebellion by
or before next May.
But more marked and suggestive still is
the way in which this onset has been met.
The patriots not only have not given way,
but have Enthusiastically assumed the aggres-
sve, here and there, while MACEo's victory
in the province of Pnar del Rio BODIES i'll
for WEYLER's campaign at the very start.
The opening of that campaign appears to
have been intrusted to Gen. MELGUIzo, who,
ut Marajal and elsewhere, made great
effort to gain the prestige of n successful as
sault as an omen of the autumn operations.
But the latest accounts indicate that this
attempt was repulsed with heavy loss.
Again, the Havana tidings tell Of n Wig
orous night attack of MACEo upon the
trocha, near Artemisa, which resulted i'll a
surprise Of the camp and n serious loss to
the Spanish column of Gen. ARoLAs, both
artillery and small arms being captured
Gen. WEYLER has reports of two severe
combats northeast Of the city of Pinar del
Rio. in which he was successful; hut the
impression given by the news as a whole, ms
it comes to us is that the patriots are strong
in numbers and resources, ready 70 attack
in force, untirng in activity, and joyfully
looking to the campaign now begun as the
one that will bring triumph to their cause

The London Daily NeWs prints letter
from an Enclshman in Cuba. He makes this
remark about the Spanish leaders:
Warfare In Cuba is turned into a money y.making
Transaction. Every man IN authorit, hiackmaiis or
openly robs all those whom h" compel by force
fear to nccede to his demands"
When the English writer was AT the town of
Batabano a fight took place there in the night
time. when 1t was pitch dark. and he tells of an
incident which followed IL;
Three rebel ngGers were captured by the Span.
ish, and shot morn!nS. They their fate very
bravey. one Garky hnEing open his Jacket and
pointing 10 his heart as he shouted Shoot here You
Spanish Dogs"
The EnGl!shman speaks ofsundry Cuban hor-
rors which WEYLER has made familiar TO the
world. He is unable to describ be the misery and
deso!aton the ravaGes Of pestilence and war:
"Whenever fghting has taken place. skeletons both
human and animal are scattered over the ground At
Cienfuecos found things in horrible condition The
pestilence is work terrible havoc the Span.
ish troops. The dead travels around aI night
long, and. the bell rings the dead bron hit out
and cart"d away for burial. SO many young and
unseasoned. and succumb almost soon as they
arrive in Cuba"
1t seems that some Texan rangers have gone
to Cuba to help along the revolution. The Eng
lish writer tells of their style OF fighting. They
even go so far as to lasso the riders off their
horses. This playful mode OF warfare nntur-
ally strikes terror into their adversaries, though
their colored comrades admire II greatly.
Surely this abhorrent war of Spain upon
Cuba ought to be ended at once for the honor
of America, in the name Of humanity.
The sun., 1896-10-08

From time to time Mr.. BRYAN's boyish
impulsiveness gets the better OF his attempts
to be judicious and polite. Then he kicks
the cover off his feelings, and they rush out,
right and left, sometimes hitting unexpect-
ed heads. In his speech at Martinsburg the
other day the cover was kicked off, and the
whole gang of dough faces who are meekly
supporting BRYAN and the Chicago plat
form, although they despise the one and
abomnate the other, got good square
blow in the face. ~ had rather have the
support of n Republican who has been
against us heretofore, but is with us now,
said Mr.. BRYAN at Martinsburg "than to
have the support of Democrat who has
been with us before, but who stays with us
now simply to use the Democratic party to
depart from the principles of the fathers"
That was blow in the face of every man
who intends to vote for BRYAN although he
does not believe in the free coinage of silver
or in the other Objectionable parts OF the
Chicago platform. BRYAN has none too
much sense, but he has enough to know
who his real friends are; and moreover, hs
has an unusual collection OF self;esteem and
firm belief in his infallibility and high
destiny and Is indignant with those persons
who propose to vote for him for the sake of
regularity, and not for the sake OF him and
his platform. He tells them, in SO many
words. that he has no use for them and that
he despises them and understands their OBJ

fall, to the last man, upon the field OF bat
tie than to surrender to Spain, or, for ex-
ample, to WEYLER, who assassinates prison
ers and burns the hospitals for the wounded,
and rnvages the villages OF the pdctf-
cos and outrages women. They know
that the executions would begin when the
surrender began, and would not end until
wEYLER fell drunk with Cuban blood.
They have witnessed scenes, and hundreds
of them, like those which Mr.. DAwLEl re-
ported, scenes that madden the Cuban soul,
as they awaken the wrath of all honorable
men, every man of spirit and mrttle.
Cuba, therefore, is engaged in war to
the death, in fight to the last ditch, which
will serve as a grave for the one side or for
the other.
The feature OF Spains war in Cuba here
spoken Of does not belong to the wars of any
country other than Spain, not to those OF
any of the great powers of Europe, not GER
tainly to any of those in which the United
States have ever been involved. Unmiti-
gated cruelty and useless carnage character
lied all Spain's wars with her former de-
Tendencies in America, ms it characteri2es
herwar upon Cuba. 1t had full play during
the determination of the original dwellcrs
in Cuba centuries ago, as it again has
among Cuba's present inhabitants
Spain has truly had bloody career for
ages, upon this side of the sea, as at home.
She ought not to be longer permitted to
wage war as now she wages it in Cuba.

another point Of view. On the other hand,
the fees at Harvard are materially
higher than they are at British medical
schools. Passing over the fee for matricu-
lation, S5, and that for graduation, $50,
we observe that student must pay during
his first three years 5000 annually. and
500 during his fourth year. During the
first two years there are tho following addi-
tional expenditures: Two dollars for each
o. the three parts required for dissection
and four dollars year for chemical ma
terial. in addition to the charge for breakage
of glass apparatus. II student cannot
afford to buy microscope, he can rent one
from the school, but this will cost him
three dollars terrd Altogether, 1t appears
that a medical education costs considerably
more at the Harvard Medical School than in
Great Britain, owing to the difference in the
fees; but it should be noted by way of offset
that ut the American institution fourteen
fellowships and scholarships, as we'll as n
certain amount of pecuniaryaid, are open to
meritorious students.
