CRITICAL
By Union Associated Press.

hy Union Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Novl4 The Cuban
war has reached critical point
WeYler has taken the field in per-
son and those best informed assert
that eight weeks will end the CON
fliet and that one side or the other
viii be practically defeated at the
end Of that time. Meanwhile rela-
tons between Spain and the United
States are so strained that one
breath will start the war flames
which have been smaldering for
months. While war may be ex-
pectgd, officials don't deny that
everything is being put in readiness
and the Navy department being
rapidly put il condition TO move at
short notice. The situation in Cuba
however is no more critical than the
governments condition IN Spain,
where the present condition OF
affairs means either revolution or
war with the United States.

DEAR EDITOR
Will you permit me space in your
highly esteemed paper to ask what
has become Of the Pops? They
seem to have vanished away in our
part of the county. There was
Pop candidate for the legislature in
the last campaign from our town
ship-and before the State election
he could be seer. on every corner
crook and turn Since his defeat
he seems to abandon society Of all
kinds. He and his friends did not
turnout to atte national acction
They failed to vote for Mr.. Watson
aaaWill some one explain this matter
to ine2 Was he Just trying to ride
into Office on the the Pops horse,
and when he found out it was too
weak to save him, he kicked cut?
1t seems to clearly show that he
-wauted the. office, aud when be
failed to get i, he said by election
-thathe didn3t.giye. a9dagn for the

The Yukon District May Yet Bring
asa About Serious Controversy
CHICAGO, Noy. IA dispatch from
Ottawa, Canada says there are rumors
of serious controversy between tho
United States and Canada over the
troubles in the Yukon district. III places
such as Forty Mile creek, where the
boundary line IS supposed to pass. and
where some OF the creeks in Anieri-
can and nominal Canadian territory. it
is impossible to determine those which
belong to Canada aud those which do
not. IN reference to the charges CON
corning the United States trespassers on
British territory III the Yukon district
and the Wishing Of gold in Canadian
waters, the treasurer says that this state
of affairs arises from the fact that the
commissioners appointed to define the
boundary line between the two eonn-
tries have not yet submitted their re-
port to the government
The districts reported to have been
invaded is a Canadian town named
Cadahy, at Forty Mile creek There is
United States postoffiee there, but il

WASHINGTON, Nov I7.-The postof-
flee officials are anxious to secure legis-
lation during the next session of con.
gress to regulate the use Of private let.
terboxes. which, it is said afford great
facilities for persons engaged in fraudu.
lent enterprises
In Chicago, New York, Philadelphia.
Boston and other large cities the private
letterbox has become a fixed institution.
They are rented to anyone willing to
pay for the convenience. The system
has grown to wonderful proportions in
New York City, and the boxes are used
by mon and women for claHdestine cor
respondence and by criminals.
We are not trying to regulate the
merits of the postoffioes, said First
Assistant Postmaster General Jones'
1--WE are simply trying to protect them
from frauds We object to the use of
these boxes by those whose sole aim ID
to fleece people When these people
hide behind the private iettcrbox | can
not understand why the department
should be criticised for following them. I"

Lighterage business about the har-
Dor of New York has been consider
ably damaged by new labor saving
device in the building trade. 1t used
to be that many lighters were en-
ployed in transporting from point to
point the sand and lime that go to
the making of mortar. A new con-
Germ, however, is now sending down
soowloads of ready mixed mortar
from Cow bay This mortar, of
three qualities, is ladled out into iron
carts and sent to all parts of the city
where building operations are going
on, and the lighters are less and less
employed for carrying the materials
that go to the making of mortar
