Tampa Bay means something more
than the port of Tampa A large pier
runs out into the bay for distance of IA
mile, at the end of which are large ware
houses. Here connection Is formed with
tue steamship lines. The per has been
called the Venice of America, because a
city, limited in extent, of course, is built
upon it. But here all the necessaries of

and wild ducks haunt the place and are
wholly without fear as the use of fire

the piers Is a favorite amusement. The
beautiful Spanish mackerel is found in
these waters and it makes the heart of a
northern man glad to draw one of these
beauties ont.

TAMPA, Fla. Jan. &c

TAMPA, Fla. Jan. 20, 90.
A delightful summer climate is what
| this section of Florida has to offer at this
season. The temperature Is about 20 de-
| grees, aud though this is ordinarily the
rainy season, the skies are cloudless and
| the sun beats down with gentle fervor.
| The night dews are heavy and cooling
| and the drops sparkle in the early morn
| ing as If they were scintIllatIons of the
| sub-tropical foliage. Florida is not a
land of beauty aside from its climate, but
| this gives man bis opportunity aud wealth
enables him to improve it.
Tampa is 4 city of 10000 inhabitants.
1t is not on the bay which bears The same
name. The bay is extended inland 10
lagoon form which may be called an
estuary, though the rivers of Florida are
largely arms of She sea. Tampa Ia nine
miles from the bay proper. 1t is the
metropolis of southern Florida and being
a seaport has no inconsiderable amount
of commerce. Its trade with Cuba is
large and has not yet been interrupted
by the rebellion IN that island. The old
Spanish town known as 1bor is part of
Tampa and has population almost ex-
cluslyely Cuban. Their sympathy with
the Cuban insurgents takes a practical
form, and fully half their wages 60 to AID
their countrymen IN the gap" Twenty
Thousand dollars worth of supplies are
shipped the insurgents every week from
this place by one steamship line. There
Is a heglra of the Spanish sympathizers
from Havana at present and every boat
brings a number OF them to this place and
Key West. They evidently fear trouble
IN the event OF the capture of Havana
which seems to he generally expected.
The chief attraction of Tampa is the
Tampa Bay Hotel, paiatial structure
built by Mr.. Plant who is almost the sole
owner of the Plant Railway System. 1t
is evident the intention was To determine
what money could do In the way of unit
ing magnihcence and comfort The hotel
Is more costly in It's equipment than in
its architecture. II Is oriental in all its
appointments 50 that the antique might
add TO the splendor of modern achieve
ment. Besides Egyptian design has
yoluptuous suggestion winch adds to the
pleasure of sensuous qualification. One
is not overwhelmed by the magniticence
which surrounds one as the richness as
In 1t an element of repose which like pity
makes all the world kin
The party spends two days at this
hotel. leaving this evening for St. Angus
tine, place which has also felt the touch
of Crosses. Ibor. the place before
mentioned is celebrated for its cigar fac
torres. One employs 800 hands,-all

THERE is little new in regard to the
war in Cuba. Both sides make such
cxorbitant claims that the conviction
becomes stronger that both are falsi
flying the situation to suit the emer-
gency of their case. The insurgents
continue their work Of obstruction, the
only plan of campaign possible under
the circumstances. La short time
the whole island will be devastated
But the fact that the Cubans have
held cut so long against disciplined
and superior force would seem to in
dictate that the Spainards are slowly
losing ground
Shall the United States take a hand
by declaring the Cuban belligerents {?
Precedent suggests that such a step
is premature. 1t may be well to await
farther developments. But should the
threat of General Weyler to introduce
barbaric methods of warfare be carried
ont in the near future humanity would
demand the recognition of the Cubans
as belligerents. Even as it IS the
sentiment is growing that the in
surgents have fought long enough
with holters around their necks.

SuPr Peterson, by refusing to appear
before the in vestigating committee to
substantlate his charges against the
University practically comedies that it
was simply nOtoriety that he was after.
The charge that he makes that the COM
mittee was biased in favor of the Univer-
slty Is silly to say the least There is no
man in the state who stands higher in
the estimation of educators than Supt.
Halsey of Oshkosh, chairman of the com
mlttee. Even though Peterson were sus
plclous of the committee he could have
put his proofs in writing and then his
action could have been judged by the trl-
bunal of public opinion. His failure to do
this furnishes material for. the suspicion
that he was actuated by malice in making
his charges. Perhaps it might have been
better # the newspapers had ignored him
altogether.

OUR representatives in congress are
working themselves into stew over
the Armenian astrocities. These are
certainly stain upon modern civiliza-
ton. But if agitation in this country
should result in direct intervention
IN behalf of those down trodden peo-
pie II would open no end of difficult
les and complications with European
powers Such harmless resolutions
as We're recently passed by congress
calling on the powers to enforce the
Berlin treaty may be INDUCED in
without stint. They show our SYM
pathy for bleeding Armenia. if they
have no other effect. However. to
seriously discuss whether the United
States should send fleet into the
Mediterranean and demand of the
sultan cessation of his heinous work
would be intruding into a matter that
concerns us onl y as we desire inhuman
persecution to be thing of the past.
Even the attempt of the Red Cross
ASSOCIATION TO send agents to Armenia
to distribute aid can only result in
tIoNohlLS the Il III n sun more.
The Turk Is true to the instincts of
his race in waging this religions war
of determination. To send into his
country symbol of christianity is not
only breach international courtesy but
direct affront to his religion, at least
IN his estimation He cannot and will
not tolerate 1t unless we are willing
TO back up the movement by force.
We have early in the life of the re
public laid down the broad and fun
damental principle of non interference
IN European affairs. 1t is safest to
abide by that principle. Let us die
tate in our part Of the world. if neces
sary, but avoid picking a quarrel with
foreign nation which can only end
IN weakening our position in our con-
tentions on this side of the Atlantic.
