Politically the times are uncertain
and full of threatening tOrnadoes. A
Boston completely Of sound men after
putting their heads together over their
ppocketboOks, the other day, resolved
that the times were ripe for a new
party, founded upon the eternal fun
damentalS of gold and free trade. Their
circular to the press of the country is
intended as a menace TO the Chicago
convention evidently, although the
junta do not admit that they are Demo
Gratis. They simply assert that they
are simon pure patriots of the stamp of
his excellency, the chief executive of
the United tates, the honorable Grover
Cleveland. No other mans name is
mentioned nor any other tenets save
gold and ''free trade" The new
party seems intended principally to
give Grover and his followers an easy
place to fall.
Senator Martin Of Virginia by his late
announcement fayOring silver is being
called a Hopper by the New York and
other eastern gOldbug papers. His de-
claration for IS to l and his denuncia-
ton Of the ruinOuS single standard
policy of Cleveland will fire the indig-
nation Of the Boston new party crowd.
Martin designates the administration
as party wrecker. SO Grover seems
TO still have some friends if he has
more enemies.
Nothing short of a single gold stan

but 1t happens to be the latest. This
corn train is only one OF many such
moving exhibitions; IL is only the latest
feature Of some thirty years OF continuous
Kansas advertising. Not for an hour since
the passage of the KansaSNebraska act
in 1854 has the horn of Kansas ceased to
sound some note of veal or woe. Volun-
tarily or Involuntary Kansas has al
ways been advertised.
1t may be said that the corn train
variety OF advertising has been the sue
cessful, indeed triumphant, proclamation.
The tidings Of disaster have been passed
on the road by the messengers of VIC
tory. The word from Kansas has been
that of Napoleon on one of his great days:
I'VE have lost one battle, but there is
time to gain one" The corn train, with
its burden of plenty and its heralds Of
prosperity, always arrives in time to con-
tradict the low-spirited laid agents and
calamity shriekers." Great is Kansas
and great its resource and invention, the
corn train Three cheers and a suitable
tiger are always in order for both. The
shadows of death can never settle in the
glorious eyes of a commonwealth that
can thus advertise.-Kansas City Star.

CUBa,S ALLY.

The Spanish troops, large per cent
of them the youth Of Spain. are dying
of in frightful way. No Cuban guns
are necessary TO a complete victory for
the patriots. Their silent ally, IN
solicited and without cost is laying
their enemies low. The rainy season
with its attendant fevers is doing more
10 decimate Weyler's forces, and to
strengthen the patriots cause than all
the battles that have been fought
There is not only yellow fever every
where, but smallpox is committing
fearful ravages. The Cubans, of
course, being acclimated suffer but
little, not more than a United States
army in a southern state would suffer
from the ague or the bilious fever.
The heavy rains render many of the
roads almost impossible, so that the
Spanish soldiers are cOoped up in their
stations and all active campaigning on
their part has to cease. The expenses
of the war go on apace and every day
makes the task Of subduing Cuba
greater and adds strength TO the cause
of the insurgents.
The silent allies of Cuba are supple
menting the work of the troops with
deadly results. Thousands of unaccli-
mated soldiers who have escaped the
Cuban bullets will go down before the
fever and the smallpox. General Wey-
Ter has failed to carry out the promises
he made, and the time in which he
agreed to close the war has passed and
the insurgents are more strongly in
trenched than ever. Even without the
moral assistance Of the United States,
the cause of liberty in Cuba is likely to
triumph and its prospects are brighter
today than ever before
