According to the Washington GORE.
spondent of the Philadelphia Times
secretary Carlisle is a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for presi-
dent The manager of his boom is
said to be William H Pugh, of Ohio.
auditor Of the treasury for the navy
department. Mr. Pugh has been work
ing in his interest ever since the secre-
1aryss Memphis speech last year. He
mas been assiduous in collecting great
lists of men who are regarded as Car
Isle Democrats, and on whom he
thinks he can depend to have organiza-
ton work done throughout the country.
Now the reason there is not a great
and almost unprecedented boom for
Mr.. Carlisle at present is that his man
ayers are waiting for the president to
take action, and so soon as he does
take such action as to allow the Car
Isle boom to take on momentum
these lists will be available and the
machinery will be placed in motion"
It is further stated that Mr.. Cleveland
will not be a candidate. and will not
permit his name to be used in the Chi
cago convention. While this is so
still some of Mr.. Carlisle's friends ex-
press Impotence at the long continued
reticence of the president. Well they
may, for it is thing to try the pa
thence of a Job to be a candidate and
have to wait upon the action or con-
sent Of any one before being able to
announce the candidacy.
1t is interesting to know in this con-
nection that it is understood in the
Carlisle camp that Vice President
Stevenson is the man TO be beaten at
Chicago. It is realized that he is a
free silver man; has always been an
advocate Of Independent silver coinage
by this country. and will be a candidate
for the presidential nomination.
The great objection to Mr. Carlisle
is that he is a gold standard man. He
is also Objectionable because he is re-
garded as Mr. Clevelands man who
has done his bidding in the past and
would do it in the future more or less.
Then Mr.. Carlisle's campaign against
Senator Blackburn whereby the Demo-
cratic party in Kentucky was beaten
should make it forever impossible for
him to receive any consideration at the
hands of a Democratic national con-
vention.

THE srruATroN IN cuRA.

The cause of Cuban independence
seems to be looking UP. Our dis
patches tell of a. decided Cuban vic
tory, in the province of Santiago de
Cuba in which the insurgent general,
Calixto Garcia. routed the Spanish
forces under General Munoz Tt was a
BATTLE between forces numbering on the
side Of the Spanish about $500 men;
and on the side of the insurgents,
about $500 men. From the account of
the affair it appears that if it had not
been for the support the Spanish forces
received from their gunboats that
came UP the river, ON whose banks the
battle was fought. the Spanish column
would likely have been annihilated or
captured AS 1T was, over three hun
bred were killed and some four hun
bred wounded, while the loss in killed
and wounded among the insurgents
was slight
This win be good news to the friends
of Cuban freedom, and will help TO
tighten the prospects of the Cuban.

RELIEF OF BULUWAYo.

Whenever the forces of civilization
and savagery meet ones sympathies
involuntarily go out to the forces of
civilization. The past three weeks
these forces have confronted each 9TH
er at Buluwayo, South Africa, and it
seemed for awhile that the brave Brit
ish garrison there would be surrounded
and massacred by the black Matabeles.
The dispatches, therefore, published in
our issue of yesterday, giving an ac-
count of the arrival of reinforcements
from Cape Colony, was pleasant read
ing. Earl Gray, co-administrator with
Mr. Cecil Rhodes in the territory of
the British Chartered South African
company, arrived at Buluwayo on the
Goth of April with a. strong escort, and
the garrison may be considered as safe
from annihilation.
There is one thing connected with
the colonization of the great continent
of Africa that is remarkable. Africa
has been known to the people of Eu-
jacent to Europe, and has been con.
sidered land of fabulous wealth, in
habited chiefly by savages whose lands
by Europeans have been considered
open to conquest; yet it has only been
within the last half century that the
interior of Africa has been seriously
considered as field of colonization
The Americas were unknown to Eu-
ropeans until about four centuries ago,
but Immediately after their discovery
there set in tide of immigration and
conquest that never ceased until the
whole western hemisphere was sub
dued and inhabited by Europeans. Yet
the Americas were two thousand miles
from Europe, while Africa was as a
next door neighbor. If it is argued
that Africa was filed with warlike
savages, so, too, was America; and
with still more warlike savages than
the black tribes of the dark continent
the Americas were overrun with Euro
peans while Africa, though known for
ages to them, was practically unin-
vaded. Why?
Now. however, Africa's turn of Eu-
ropean colonization seems to have
come. 1t is being invaded from the
north by the way of Egypt, from the
east by way of Abyssinia, and also
from the south by way of the British
colonies.
These invasions may be attended by
much cruelty, and perhaps by some
injustice to the savage tribes; but we
are not sorry the time has come wh,sn
light begins II penetrate the dark
continent. For many centuries it has
been held in the embrace of sayagery;
it is time this gave way to civilization
and enlightenment.

TALES OFF THE DAY.
The Accomplished Hotel Clerk.

A good hota clerk must know every
thing. He must be able to read the in
nernost thoughts of every guest that
comes to his house. He must be ready
to answer every question that is asked,
whether concerning railroad trains, pc
destrianism, politics. law, science, geog-
raphy, astronomy or theology.
Houston has one of the brightest hotel
clerks in the world. He is always af-
fable, ready with any kind of information
whatever, and never has to be asked for
anything.
Two drummers were sitting in the lobby
of this hotel few nights ago, and one
of them was telling the other about the
clerks readiness, and said:
III bet the drinks that if you open that
newspaper that you have in your hand,
select the first phrase that meets your
eye, and then walk over to the clerk and
say it over to him, he will respond In some
way without moments hesitation
The drummer opened the paper by
chance at a political article, and the first
words he saw were: 1.-THE greatest good
to the greatest number"
He walked over to the clerks desk,
leaned his elbow on it, and said seriously:
The greatest good to the greatest num-
ber"
The clerk smiled pleasantly, tapped a
bell. and said to the bell boy:

del Rio, western Cuba. is critical. The
brave soldier has all along ueen con-
fident that he could cross General Wey-
ler's trocha whenever he pleased, but
it is serious business.
The trocha is a line of trenches ana
other Notifications extending clear
across the island, occupied by Spanish
troops, and is said to be eighteen miles
wide. This trocha now separates the
insurgent forces, Maceo being weet of
it, in the province of Pinar del Rio,
and Gomez east of it, south of Ha-
vana
The insurgent generals have per
formed wonders in crossing these Span
ish lines in the past, and it is to be
hoped they will be equally successful
in the present instance, but one can
not but feel anxious about IT.
If Maceo cuts his way through the
trocha and joins General Gomez, that
maneuver taken in connection with the
recent victory of General Garcia ought
to be rewarded by a declaration OH
the part of the United States recog
nizing the insurgents as belligerents,
for it will demonstrate not only that
a state of war exists in Cuba, but the
inability OF the Spanish government to
put down the rebellion.
The recognition of the Cubans as
belligerents has already been too long
deferred, and ON Maceo and Gomez
fighting their way through Weyler's
trocha there should be such demand
by the people of this country for Gu
ban recognition that the Administered
tion would no longer dare to delay its
plain duty. 1t viii be a sign of weak
ness and a. disgrace for this country
to longer defer the recognition which
the Cuban patriots have so richly earn
ed; for it will show that we value
peace so much that we have not the
spirit to say a cheering word to brave
men fighting for freedom.

THE NEW HERALD coapANY.

On the 2Stn of last month the old
Herald company made complete
transfer of its property and business
to Mr.. r. c. Chambers, in liquidation
of the company's indebtedness to him,
and for two days that gentleman alone
owned The Herald. On the 3Oth of
April, however, a new Herald com
pany was Incorporated, with Mr.
Chambers as President, Mr.. A. w. Nc
Cune, yice-President; and these two
gentlemen, with Hon. Joseph l.. Raw
Inns, constitute the new Board of Di-
rectors. Mr.. c. L. Rood is the Score
tary and Treasurer of the company,
and Mr.. E. A. McDaniels. Business
Manager.
1t is the determination of the new
company to make The Herald the
first newspaper of the state, and of the
mountain west. To the accomplish
ment of this purpose there will be
spared neither money nor effort.
The new company recognizes the
tact that Utah's location in the west
ern mountain empire is central, and
possesses the wealth and variety of
resources to make her the chief state
Oh the group. 1t is the section of our
great country that will grow more
imam any other. It's population will
increase more rapidly; it's villages will
grow to towns, its towns to cities, and
its cities enlarge their borders. This
promise of growth in the mountain
west makes this section splendid
Held for journalism, and it is the pur-
pose Of The Herald to be identified
with this development by devoting it's
best energies and influence to bringing
it about.

While the government of the United
States may be lacking faith in the
ability of Cubans to win their indie
pendence, it is quite clear that the
American people in some localities do
not share that doubt. Speaking of the
bids that were opened in New York
last Saturday Tor the Cuban bond loan
of $1,000 600, the Washington Evening
Star says:
American faith in the ability of Cuba
to set up a government on its own ac-
count was demonstrated very en-
phatically Saturday when bids for a
two million dollar issue of Cuban bonds
were opened III New York. The bids
aggregated more than nine million dol
lars, and the average price offered for
the entire issue was sixty-two and one
half cents on the dollar. Capital is
proverbially timid and it might we'll be
excused for an extraordinary exhibit
tion of tiqnidity in connection with the
Cuban cause, in view of the position
taken by this administration as to the
recognition of the Cubans es belliger-
ents. Financiers, however, seem to
have paid comparatively little atten-
ton to the presidents attitude, pre-
ferring rather to pin their faith upon
the almost unanimous expression of
American sympathy with the strug-
Cling revoiutionists. If Spain desires
to institute a comparison between its
financial standing and the standing of
those TO whom it terms bandits and
highwaymen it might try the expert
ment of a bond issue in the United
States
