1.-THE invention of a successful air

American Review, will cause an en-.
tire revolution in the art of war more
stupendous than that caused by any
invention since that of gunpowder, and
even surprising that, since it only in
creased the distance between the lines
of the com batants. while the principles
of attack and defense, strategy and
supply, were only slowly modified. A
flying machine will nullify strategy,

attack and defense and diminish the

Evansville, Ind.
EVANSVILLE, Ind, Jan. IA. - The
steamboat Royal was burned to the
waters edge last night while tied to
the bank above the city. She had been
run ming all day between this city and
Henderson. About six o'clock she came

the city to tie up to be overhauled and
reprinted. She had not been at the
bank over half an hour when the rear
end of the women's cabin was discov-
cred in flames. 1t is supposed the fire
caught from the stove pipe. The boat
was valued at sec, 600 The insurance
had amounted to SEQ, 900. but some of
the policies had been allowed to lapse
and the insurance will not exceed S12,-

THE campaign in Cuba is being
closely observed by the administration.
In the event that the insurgents attack
the capital of the island in force, it is
possible that the North Atlantic
squadron may be ordered to Havana
to be in position to guard American in
terests during the disturbed conditions
that may be expected to accompany q
siege. It is not probable that excep-
ton could be taken to the presence of
our vessels in such case by Spain. as it
is customary for powers having large
interests and many citizens in a city
so beset to have some force present for
their protection.

whom they are addressed is insuIted by

Judge Catlin is an American clear

which when covered into the treasury

THE ALTGELD WHINE.

We have before US the full report of
Johann Prudhon Altgeld's speech at
Cooper Union, New York, the other day.
Whoever reads its disloyal, communist
ic and revolutionary assaults upon the
courts, the Federal Government, and
interstate rights, the lives and prop
erty of the people, and the mails of the
United States. and it's bitter attacks up
on the judiciary for restraining those
who invade the right of citizens to en-
joy the fruits of their industry, Will
gain a pretty clear insight into the
inner meaning Of the Chicago platform
In the midst of the speech came a
dispatch Of congratulation to Altgeld
from w. J. Bryan
Some idea of the blatant falsifying Of
Altgeld may be gained from his charge
that Judge Ross of Los Angeles at
tempted by court order to compel men
to go to work for an employer whose
service they had quilted, and threat
ened to send them to jail If they re-
fused. Californians do not need to be
reminded that nothing of the kind oc-
CURED in California Altgeld excuses
his position by saying that If threat
ened act complained of is forbidden by
the law. then an injunction Is neces-
saTy; If the law does not forbid the act,
injunction is usurpation
The latter statement IS correct, but
as to the former let Altgeld find men
preparing to destroy his buildings in
Chicago. to prevent him from carrying
on his business peaceably and lawfully.
to take from him possession of his
property-these things are forbidden by
law. Now, he can let the thing go
and sue for damages, it's true, but
meanwhile the property is destroyed
and his liberty throttled. But he may
appeal to the courts, showing that his
p1eserty Is threatened or seized. or that
IL Is about to be destroyed or injured
and that before he can sue at law the
oeed Will be accomplished. Would he
not hold himself unprotected as an
american citizen If he could not invoke
the law to stop the doing of irreparable
injury to his property and rights?
That is all there is in the whine of
the anarchistic Chicagoan, who forgets
that from the time of the thunders OF
Sinai the law always has interposed
TO prevent the doing of wrong by the
mandate, Thou Shat Not!"

Governor Budd does not charge, but
he intimates in ill-framed satire. that
men who work for wages and march in
Republican professions are insincere,
hypocritical and cowardly, and appear
to be for Mckinley simply because they
fear punishment. That insult was un-
becoming the Governor Of the State.
1t was as unbecoming as was his ad-
vice to workers In San Francisco to
make walking lies Of themselves. When
a high officer Of the State comes down
to such denlagogic devices he belittles
himself and his Office. We regret that
Governor Budd should have done this.
more for his own sake than anything
else. for there is not a wage Garner in
the land who does not know whether
he is worthy Of the insult or not.

Governor Budd Charged With Insulting

One Of Them Expresses His Opinion
Of Such Political Methods in
Warm Terms.

(From the San Francisco Call.)
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Oct. "a, 1896.
Hon. James H. Budd, Governor of
California Sir: In your speech de-
ivered at Union Hall Monday evening
as reported in the morning papers oc-
ours the following passage:
This MONDAY parade is outrageous.
What is it for? What Is it for?
Thank God they can't crawl into the
ballot booth and see how you vote
Turn out, all of you. Turn out, say
the more the merrier. You've got a
wife and little ones at home. You must
consider them and yourself. This is
just like the turnout Of men at Sacra-
mento. They We're not 'coerced,' just
requested Turn out, all Of you, and
as you walk think Of the aspect Of en-
ployers marching men through the
streets to spot them. I have seen a
horse parade at the State Fair and
have seen a jackass parade, and I've
read OF parade Of slaves to the block,
but never before have I heard Of such
attempts to intimidate laborers and
clerks as at this time.
March with them, but when you get
into the ballot booth put the holy cross
opposite the names Of the Bryan
Electors. They may march you, but
you can cruelty them with q cross on
election day."
This gratu1tous insult to men who
choose to make a public showing of
their political preference is undignified
and unbecoming to the great Office you
hold. It has not even the merit of
originality. It is the conception Of an
inflated individual who Is striving to
talk himself into a high place, and
whom you with evident reluctance are
compelled to support at the eleventh
hour.
My life has always been and still is
that OF an employe. I never held or
sought a political Office. I don't think
should feel honored by one If secured
by subterfuge such as is currently ru-
mored to have been practiced in 1894
I did not intend to march in Satur-
days procession. but shall now do SO.
And the man who asserts or intimates
that am bribed, coerced or intimi-
dated into so doing is-well, he don't
tell the truth. Respectfully CD

George A. Benham in his able mono
graph well says that industry furnishes
us the key to the present situation; in
dustry offers us safe mode OF escape
from the present evils from which the
country is suffering, and the only means
Of attaining true progress and prosper
ity. We own boundiess natural wealth,
and we have a sure means of converting
that wealth into gold by the aid of in
dustrial enterprises. The highway to
prosperity is always attained through
the pathway of honest and energetic
toll, He might well have added that the
pathway is opened and kept open by
protection from unwholesoqne oompeti-
ton by foreign cheap labor and prod
uctS.

What sort Of Republican is a candi-
date who prints on his card, "Independ-
ent Republican Candidate for the AS
sembly," and tells his intimates that he
is going to vote for Bryan? Is he not a
wolf in Sleeps clothing? Yet that Is
precisely what the independent Re-
publican nominee in the Twenty-first
District says he will do. What straight
forward Republican does not prefer a
straightout Democrat or Populist to a
candidate occupying such a position?
