The execution of Col. Ruiz by the
Cuban insurgents must remove the last
lingering hope that they would accept
Spain's offer of autonomy. 1t was bar
barous act, as the Spaniards tell
1T, comparable only to the doings
of savages, and stamps the insurgents as
quite as inhuman as the Spaniards whose
cruelties have so fired the hearts Of some
of our congressman. 1t is conclusive
proof, however. that the olive branch can
not be rendered to the rebels without
having it trampled under foot and the
tenderer of it put to death If he is caught
Spain will undoubtedly accept it as such
and attempt no more parleying. The con-
test will have to be fought out with pow
der and ball, and If the rebels are brought
into submission it will be by force and
not by Cancellation. This example of bar
barity on the part of the rebels is sure to
provoke imitation on the part of the
Spaniards, and in all probability before
long the war will have taken on again
all the inhuman character it had while
Weyler was in command. 1t is altogether
probable too that Ruiz's murder (for it
was nothing short of that will weaken
the support of Sagasta, and make it
harder than ever to carry out his polio y
of reconciliation and reform.

The cotton spinners of New England
may be taking too lugubrious q
view of things, and closing their
minds to certain considerations which
have an important bearing upon the
future of their industry. All they can
see just now is the lower wages and longer
hours at the South, and they hasten to
the conclusion that unless New England
wages can be reduced to Southern wages
and. New England hours increased to
Southern hours cotton spinning will soon
be thing of the past in this locality.
This view leaves entirely out of account
the question of efficiency, and neglects
also to take into account the fact that
human nature is no different
at the South from what it is
at the, North. Because one mill
pays twice as much to its operatives as
another mill, it by no means follows that
its products are costing twice as much.
To determine that point the comparative
productiveness of the operatives of the
two mills must first be determined. 1t
may be that the mill that pay its opera
tives twice as much is getting its product
at a lower price than the other because
Of the superior efficiency of its operatives.
1t by no means follows sither that if a
man works twelve hours a day he will
produce more than another man of just
tie same deficiency who works but ten
hours. Man is machine with feeling. He
gets tired and constant work for twelve
hours each day may SO reduce his energy
that he will really produce less than if
he worked but ten hours. Some of the
economists have got SO in the habit
of treating man as if he Were
a machine made of iron and stee
that they often in estimating
what he can produce forget that he is
made of flesh and blood with limit to
his endurance. The first thing that
economists of that kind see is the wages
of labor per day and the hours of work
per day, and that is all that good many
Of them ever do see. If the wages of Fall
River are in excess of those at the South
and the hours Of work shorter they jump
to the conclusion that competition is i'm
possible unless the wages and hours of
thesformer be placed on an equality with
those of the latter. We can not absolutely
say that the Fall River people have
jumped to this conclusion in this way
in the pending case but we think it more
than likely that they have not given con-
siderations that may tend to Offset diff
ferences in wages and hours all the at
tention they are entitled to.

The danger of Hawaii being admitted
as state after it had been annexed as
a territory might perhaps be securely
guarded against by constitutional amend
1nent, but that it can be in any other
way is highly improbable. Certainly a
resolution passed by the present Senate or
by both houses against the granting of
statehood to Hawaii in the future could
have o binding force on future Senates
and Houses of Representatives. Attention
might be paid to 1t as piece of advice,
but it certainly would not be regarded as
imposing an obligation. If Hawaii
comes in it will come. in-no matter what
the understanding may belize all other
territories, free to be made into state
whenever the majority of any Senate and
House may wish to make 1t one. When
that will be nobody can predict exactly,
but with lot of ambitious Americans
anxious to become senators and represen
tattves, there will be constant pressure
to hurry up which Congress will not
resist very long.

The commissioner of excise in the state
of New York shows that under the opera
tions of the Raines lasv for one year, the
number of licenses issued fell off 1868
while the net revenue increased 4,441,-
900 as compared with the results
under the statutes previously regu-
lating the liquor traffic in the last
twelve months of their operation. AS a
revenue producer the Raines law is a
decided success.

The reelection of Mayor Quincy is I'M
der the circumstances not surprising.
Boston is naturally strong Democratic
city. To be sure the Republicans have
carried it in the last two state elections,
but that was because the financial ques.
tion was uppermost, and the Democratic
candidate espoused the free silver side
Of it. No doubt the hope the Republicans
cherished of winning on Tuesday was
due largely to the expectation that the
Williams Democrats would cut Quincy
and rally around Riley, but Riley appears
to have been rather too unattractive a
candidate for rallying purposes. Never
theless, tn e smallness of Quincys major
ity as compared with the normal Demo
cratic majority shows that there was con-
siderable detection from the Democratic
candidate.

The iron and steel business of Pitts.
burg for the current month shows so far
that it will eclipse the famous December
Of 1892. All mills and blast furnaces are
running on full time, and orders have al
ready been placed for late deliveries in
1898. Within ten days 40,0o0 tons of pig
iron and 100000 tons of bars and billets
have been turned out. With every blast
furnace ofsthe Pittsburg district running
full, stocks of pig have decreased 10000
tons within a week.

Despite the veto of the Mayor the
gang" in the ooun Gil of Chicago passed
the ordinance which provides that each of
the sixty four alder nen shall have Sec
rotary at salary of $500. These score
taries are of course mere 'stool pigeons
and the whole thing is the merest subter-
fuge for looting the treasury. Yet the
corporation counsel gave an opinion that
the council had the right to vote the ap-
propriation.

ga Senator Allison. the Iowa Republican
leader, says in an interview that he does
not take the despairing view concerning
the currency which President Mckinley
presented. While there were some i'm
provements which might be very desira-
BILE he was strongly Inclined to the belief
that the country could get along if there
was no additional currency legislation for
while at least. Half hundred or SO
Republican editors in Iowa were asked
for an expression of opinion in relatio n
to Senator Allison's attitude and twenty
four endorsed his declaration, five were
non-committal while twenty four de-
manded prompt monetary legislation.
