CUBA AND VENEZUELA.
London Papers Talk About the
Amazing Con idence of
Americans.

Amazing Confidence OF
Americans.
LoNDJN, Oct. 18-The Globe this af-
ternoon published long jingo letter
upon what it describes as ex-SolicitOr
General Sir Edward Clark's iil-timed
and insincere remarks upon the Vene-
zuelsn dispute that mo honest and im-
partial commission could decide in favor
of Englaud's claim upon the evidence"
In the course Of the editorial the Globe
says:
at is simply astounding he should so
greatly increase the difficulties of the
Marquis of Salisbury's diplomatic &C.
ton, both regarding the United States
and Venezuela by pronouncement
based on evidence which is still Incom-
plete. The United States would not
have tolerated such an sffront as Great
Britain received from Venezuela. Our
power of endurance has limits which
may be quicker reached as regards the
URited States than Venezuela. While
deprecstiug any other than peaceful re-
atiOns we have certainly less reason
than Americans to dread, and We will
not permit our rights to disputed terri
tory to be DETECTED hairs breadth by
Venezuela's obstinscy or American in
tsrveutiop."
The st. James Gazette commenting
on the dispatch from Washington re-
gsrding Venezuela and the expected re-
cognition Of belligereDcy OF the insur-
gents of Cuba, dwells uprn what it
terms "The amasing confidence OF
Americans" adding:
"We venture to consider Americans
are much in error in thinking the
Spanish will take their intervation In
Cuba by lying down. On the contrary
they will tight for the last remnant OF
their greatness. Neither is it to be
taken for granted they will be left en-
tirely withou. support when they are
contending for the right to be treated
as an independent nation. Others are
interested IN the seeing the United
States does not establish domination
over those seas. America is also con-
vinced. apparently, that SIR Julian
Psunceforte returns with q British sur
render in his pockets. We do not be-
lieye this"

J. K. Gooding, toreman:-
Your committee appointed to
investigate the office of super
visors, have the honor to re-
port: That we hnd the
affairs of the office apparently
all right but that the work of
the clerk is behind. The clerk
complains of his inability to
keep it up although he claims
to be obliged to work day and
night. Yet We find he has
plenty of time to devote to
playing faro-bank and your
committeerespectfully ullysuggests
that in view of public opinion
the honorable board of super
visors would do well to employ
as clerk a man who will re-
frain from gambling.
Very respectfully submit tied.

You and the public know tho deadly
thrusts made in the Chicago platform at
the supreme court, at the presidents pow
er to suppress riot affecting federal proper
ty or authority, and at freedom OF con.
tract. You and the public know Of the at
tack on the public credit and honor, on
the present monetary standard, and the
threat Of unlimited issae Of paper money
by the government. The world knows
them and is amazed at them.
No nation has ever been led by govern
ment in defiance OF commerce to adopt a
measure of values and medium of ex-
change. While silver may answer the
needs of an effete or nascent civilization,
it would not answer the needs of the most
progressive and most energetic race ON the
globe-the America Of today.

Patriotic Utterances of the Republican

We never had greater prosperity in this
country in every field of employment and
industry than in the busy years from 1880
to 1892, during all of which time this
country was on gold basis and employed
more gold money in its fiscal and business
operations than ever before. We had, too,
a protective tariff under which ample rev.
enues were collected for the government
and an accommodating surplus which WAS
constantly applied to the payment of tie
public debt. Let us hold fast to that
which we know is good. 1t is not more
money we want. What we want is to put
the money we already have at work. When
money is employed men are employed
Both have always been steadily and re-
muneratively engaged during all the years
of protective tariff legislation

The WEST.

[By General Palmer, DEM, Of nlinois.l
The real expectation of tho great body
of supporters of the free coinage of silver
and one in harmony with the experience Of
mankind is that the unlimited coinage of
silver would give to tho country depreci-
atcd and cheaper dollar, which would en-
nance nominal values and he used tn the
payment of debts, but would be attended
and followed by the ruin of all industries,
the destruction of public and private credit
and irreparable mischicfs.
Many Of our associates, deluded by de
ceptiye sophistries, are supporting coali-
ton which disavows the traditional faith
Of the Democratic party. The best we can
hope for them is that they may be defeat
ed, and when defeated they may return TO
the safe paths that they have heretofore
trodden.

GOOD MONEY.

The Timbermen Want Their Wages in the
Best Money.
From The Timberman, Chicago.
A correspondent from Minneapolis,
Mimi, writes:
''In the absence of other business, the
money question is having a large share
of attention these days at the hands of
timbermen. For some reason or other
the opinion seems to prevail that there
is large preponderance of silver senti-
ment among the laboring classes Last
week a test was made among the men
employed in the A. Kelley Lumber COM
pany's mill and yard. A straw ballot
was taken of all the employees. Fac h
man was privileged to cast blind bal
lot SO that there was no opportunity Tor
the employers to know how any man
voted The straw election was carried
on upon the Australian system and the
result was Il surprise to even the most
ardent supporters of the gold standard.
''There We're 1850 votes cast and of this
number $50 were for Mckinley and 103
for Bryan A similar vote has been
taken in the shops of the Chicago, Mil
waukee and St Paul Railroad in this
city and with about the same results.
Editor Will r. Burnside of Buckhan-
non is evidently sure that Mckinley viii
be elected and as an evidence of his
conviction PAGES this offer III his paper;
$40 the business men Of this town, The
Delta makes the following offer; IL Will
furnish its advertising columns, from
one column up, to any advertiser, at
regular rates, and not ask for payment
until 10 days after Mckinley is elected. "
Mr.. Powderly, former Master Work
man of the Knights Of Labor, and Chief
Arthur Of the brotherhood Of Locomo-
tive Engineers, are earnest supporters
Of Mckinley and honest money.
