Cuba is divided naturally-into three
sections. says Golfers Weekly. The
eastern country. rugged and wild. is de-
voted to iron and copper mining and
herding. great deal of American
money is invested in the mines near San
tiago. The central belt, extending
through the provinces of Puerto Piin-
cipe, Santa Clara, Matanzas, Havana
and into Pinar del Rio, is engaged in
sugar production, and the latter state,
which is the most westernly. is famous
for it's tobacco.
Cuba sends abroad, in normal years.
sugar. molasses, tobacco and fruits to
the value of more than $50,000,000, 10
per cent. of which comes to the United
States. If Cuba we're free to make her
own bargains she would take her pay
nearly altogether in trade, but through
the workings of the laws devised in
Madrid she is permitted to spend in the
United States but % per cent. of her
receipts, and that sum for coal, petro-
leum, machinery and commodities
which Spain cannot furnish.
The present rebellion originated in
the eastern end of the island, and with
in year has covered all of the six
provinces. There are but two parties
the Cubans and the Spaniards. Only
the want of munitions of war prevents
the present Cuban force from increas-
ing two, three or fourfold. With coast
line of some $500 miles the chances Of
landing men and arms are at all times
greatly in favor of those who wish to
help the Cuban cause. The recent de-
cision of an American court in the case
of the steamer I.aurada seems to settle
the question of the right of Cubans in
this country and of adventurous Amer
leans to give active aid and comfort to
the forces of Gomez.

Another Attack On Honest Farmer

Rutland Herald:

There is malicious whisper going
about to the effect that Honest Far
mer Grout runs some scale works at
Moline, ILL.,, that he has passed his
winters there regularly and that he
only stays at home this season to
"chop political cordwood." In a
word it is declared that this "repre-
sentative farmer" is in fact manu-
facturer and that in the matter Of res
idence be is in the same fix as Mr..
Klmball Of Randolph, who is told by
the newspapers that he cannot have a
place on the st. Louis delegation be-
cause he has business and a summer
residence in Brooklyn. In fact the
most shocking things imaginable are
said.

BOOK OF NUTFIELD.
Important and unique contribution to
New Hampshire Historical Literature.

One of the most interesting of the ear
ly New England settlements was that
made in 17l9 by the little band OF SEQ CHI
irish emigrants no came from London
derry, Ireland, and founded colony III
New Hampshire. Their blood now flows
in the veins of about 100000 Americans
and among their descendants have been
many illustrious men. Theirs has been
strong and distinctive influence in Amer
lean life. They first called their settle
ment Nutfed, subsequently changing
the name to Londonderry, and the his
tory of this unique colony has been told
most delightfully."- in "Willey's Book of
Nutield,' work OF about 400 large folio
pages and embellished with nearly 1000
engravings. Covering as it does field
which has hitherto been but imperfectly
cultivated, and being written from origi-
nal sources, it is the most important his
torical work that has appeard in New
Hampshire for many years. 1t has placed
its author, George F. Wiley in the very
front rank of New England historians.
1t should be in every city and town libra
ry throughout New England and where
ever New Englanders have settled, for
it is reference book replete with rare
information for the historian, while the
general reader cannot fail to be interest
ed in its graphic pictures of colonial life.
The numerous genealogical sketches have
special value for those seeking creden-
tials emitting them to membership in the
various colonial organizations, and in
the index are thousands of surnames.
The work has attracted widespread at
tention and has met flatteripg reception
everywhere. Hon. Henry w. Blair, ex-
United States Senator, says of it: I'VE
having nothing in the line of local or
even state history which at all approach
es it in attractiveLess of general appear
ance nor in comprehensive as well as
minute historic value" The edition being
limited, the work will surely double in
value two or three times within the next
year or two, and it is to be hoped that
our public library will secure copy be-
fore the edition is exhausted. The au-
thor, George f. Wiley of Manchester,
N. H., will mail 20-page prospectus of
the work post free to any address.

The statistics from the Congre,

The statistics from the Congrega-
tional churches in the state, as fur
nished to the compiler of the year
book, show that the year 1885 was
an unusually prosperous one among
the churches of that denomination.
Reports were received from every
church. Forty of the churches in
the state are served by installed pas
Tors, lis by pastors that are not in-
stalled, IL by supplies, Is by licen'
tiates and ministers of other denom-
nations and - ale vacant. This
showing is somewhat better than that
for 1894. The total membership JAN
uary l, 1896, was 81 ,543, gain OF
400 during the year.

Schrader is native of Wisconsin, Of
German descent, rs years old. He is The
seventh son, and claims to have been
born with supernatural power. He says
he began healing ct the age of IA years.
He makes up to resemble the Re-
deemer, and dresses in Christ's garb.
He says he never changes his clothes
until he dons new raiment; then thank
full patients remove his old clothes and
preserve bits as bars to disease and
cures for aches and pains. His garb
is black gown, over an ordinary cler-
zeal suit. He has an overdress like u
wide sash made of red material. His
beard is of reddish tint, his hair long
and dark and parted in the middle. He
carries cruciiiX, but denies allegiance
or connection with any church, talks in
subdued tones, breaches occasionally
and is very ignorant.
An average of 800 people visit him
daily, many coming 100 miles. These
patients are chronic sufferers from
blindness, rheumatism, paralysis and
every form of disease, which he claims
to cure. and if he fails he charges the
patient with a lack of faith. He has
promised to place new eyes in place OF
punctured and sightless orbs. He has
told deformed patients he can grow
arms and legs from stumps; there is
nothing impossible with him.
When through with certain class of
patients he makes them believe they
feel better, but day or two shows them
in the old state. After several weeks
sojourn be has not effected simple

For President-Who.

1t is generally conceded, on all
hands, that the next President will be
nominated by the Republicans at St.
Louis, and many are anxiously in
quiring "who will it be'Y' The S1F-
TER would be glad to answer if it only
knew, As it doesn't possess actual
knowledge upon the subject it can only
give the outlook as it appears at pres
ent. Unquestionably the two leading
candidates are Reed of Maine and
Mckinley Of Ohio. There are a num-
her Of other side shows, not one Of
whom are likely to receive the nomin-
alton under any contingency that may
arise. The Morton boom is lotbinp
more than a Tom Platt move to get
the New York delegation under his
thumb so that he can trade them off to
his personal advantage. The same can
be said Of the Quay movement in
Pennsylvania. Neither of these men
stand ghost of a chance and their
boomers know it. The race is between
Reed and Mckinley and one or the
other will be nominated unless tbeir
forces should be SO nearly balanced as
to produce deadlock. This is moi
likely to occur, leastways that is moi
the present outlook. 1t is becoming

FIGHTING FOR LIBERTY;
Some Intqrostins Facts About the
Island oi CUBA.
Decadence Of Spanish Power in the Went
srn II hemisphere Present Struggle May
End In the Emanc ipation Of the
Gem OF the Antilles.

One hundred years ego Spain, in con-
Junction with Portugal, held all Of
South America, Central America and
Mexico, together with more than half
of all the territory now included within
the limits of the United States. To-day
she is engaged in u bitter struggle to
keep the final fragment of her Ameri-
can possessions, and il is manifest des.
tiny that soon Spanish arrogance and
cruelty will be but a memory In the
western hemisphere. The present he
roic effort to shake off the burden OF
the taskmaster's heavy hand in Cuba
HAY fail and another group of luckless
patriot leaders may be destroyed in
torture, like Quesada, or left to rot
in the living grave of Cabanas, until they
are forgotten; but still others will
take up the cause, and the crown will
find her sacrifices of men and material
as costly and futile in the future as in
the past.
Cuba has always been, during the
greater part of the present century,
in a condition Of incipient rebellion.
Her failure to follow the example of
Mexico in 1910 and then declare her In
dependence was afterward rewarded
ny oppressive laws, depriving the in
sular residents of representation or re-
dress. Nothing but the fact that the
soil of Cuba is of wonderful fertility
has enabled her people to pay the taxes

which the home country collects at the

81 promising rebellions were organ

signalized by the bloody incident of
the Virginius massacre at Santiago de

too late, some of his old-time nerve.

self now by advocating the nominal
ton of Maj. Grout who is as finished
q product of the machine as ever en-
tered upon canvass-self-oiling,
safety blow off, patent connecting
rods aud polished brass mount!ngs.
Every intelligent observer knows
that for quarter Of a century few
men have named the principle State
officers. These have been taken
from among themselves-the ring
each in his turn. Hence we now hear
from newspapers that are loyal to the
ring, it is Maj. CIRCUITS "turn." Yes,
he has long been a member of the
combine, 10 good standing. He has
fought nobly for all the faithful who
have gone before and have entered
into the political Ravens prepared fol-
them and now it is his "turn." And
when nominated, if he is, these gen.
tlemen will say, voters, we have given
you a ticket; all you have to do is to
walk up to the polls and ratify our
work, done for your good and to save
you bother. Furthermore we have
arranged matters for you into the
next century. Two years from now
you must vote for Stranahan and two
years from that for Mansur. We
will not confuse you further but we
have the man picked out for 1902.
You will not have to worry bit !; you
will only be required, as loyal Re-
publlcans, to 60 to the polls and ratl.
fy the ticket that we have SO kindly
made up for your accommodation.
Upon these precise lines has Maj.
CIRCUITS candidacy been launched.
He has labored faithfully among and
for the faithful with an eye single to
the time when Josiah's '.turn' would
come. With pitchfork, hoe and rake
and smattering of Chicago law he
has labored day in and day out tc
bring this "turn" about. The ma.
chine says it has come. The people
are yet to act.
The SITTER does not question the
ability of Maj. Grout nor does il
doubt but that his experience with the
affairs of state would qualify him for
the position he long has sought, but
for the above reasons, it there were
no others, it cordially supports
Speaker Stickney, whose qualifica.
tons, in every respect, equals, to say
the least, that Of his opponent, and
who is not of the ring, otherwise be
