Gen. Blanco is credited with
having entered into negotiations
for peace with the insurgentfOrces
on the basis of autonomy, but
the truth is that he has done it on
the basis of bribery. His real eff.
fort is to buy off the leaders of
the insurrectiOn. the generals
whom Weyler was so unable to
meet in the field and then when
the army of the rebels is without
adequate leadership, come down
on them and destroy them
There is no intimation that he
will be successful.

Figures may or may not lie, ac-

the statistics of production and

policy is indicated by figures.

When the newspaper is put into
the public school as text book
it will be in order to have
a censor appointed to select the
newspaper, then a committee to
make a selection from that select
ed newspaper, else there will be
a queer tumble of rapes and Sc,
auctions and murders and lynch
ings and all manner of devil
ment placed before the young
idea for it to shoot at. My, wont
there be a time of it selecting the
political character of the news
paper to be read. Perhaps in
the fullness of our advancing civ
ilization the time will come when
the average newspaper will dc
but not now. The taste of the
public cOmpels the publication OF
news, happenings of every kind,
and the paper that does not cater
to this morbid desire for all, good
and bad, particularly the bad, is
not in it.

Foraker refuses to discuss the
Ohio senatorial question. Forak.
er is wise, for everything that he
may say or do would not prevent
the reiteration of the so often de-
MED report, that he has a knife
up his sleeve for every man in
Ohio who stands in his way, or is
supposed TO. First it was Sher-
man and then Bushnell and now
it is Hanna. There is no use in
trying to change it.

AMERICAN PRODUCTIVE
NESS. p

| England is beginning to bear
testimony to the wonderful pro-
ductive power of the United
States. She realizes that we are
yet in the infancy of our posi-
bilities, and yet our farms raise
food for 1O0,00O,000 every year
our meat supply has increased u
per cent in twenty years and our
grain supplies n per cent in the
same period, cotton has increased
in that time 125 per cent, very
sufficient reason for its present
low price. These are British fig
ures, and while they afford little
comfort to the free trader they
are full to the brim
of encouragement for the prOtec-
zionist. The years of increase
thus marked have been frosted
with eight years of Democratic
free trade legislation and admin
istration, and yet there is this
marked increase There is not a
reasonable doubt of the great ad-
vance that will yet be made in
the productions of the agricultur-
al lands of this country. Double
the consumption by the labor in
all of our mills and factories, and
of all our professional and mer-
camille workers, and all others
who are nOn-agriculturists and
the resources of our farms will
not be even remotely approx
mated. America can feed and
clOthe population that is equal
to that of the entire globe today.
1t will be ages in the future before
this country need fear that she is
approaching the limit of her abiir
| ity to provide food, homes and la
Dor for her natural increase. 1t
is wisdom to see that her lands are
not occupied with the millions of
other lands, against the time
when these now unOccupied acres
will be required for the popula-
tions that will grow upon this
home soil. There is a home poll,
cy and home duty and a home
necessity to governments and
states and nations, as well as to
families and individuals, and to
look out for these and provide
against the needs of the future is
the greatest duty of the statesmen
of the present. All see the now.
Few consider the then.

There is a hue and cry made
over the Negroes hunger for Office.
He is not a bit more hungry for
pie than his white exampler.
Wereit not for the crowd to thepie
counter of the white politicians
the colored brother would not be
so previous. Accustomed to
hear pie spoken of as the Great
American dish, the colored poll
tician puts in his claim, believing
that what is nightly striven af-
ter by the leaders of the great
political parties must be worth
having. Put it down as a rule
that the man, white or black,
who plants his everlasting all on
the acquisition of pie, is out at
something else. To the success
full man of affairs the time spent
loafing around the pie counter
is entirely too valuable to be
thrown away, and he is 'cOnspic-
uOus for his absence. AS to the
hOnors of Office, there are none
attaching to positions that are
fought over and begged for.

+ Weyler has not been sudden in
his movements since reaching
Spain. He holds aloof alike
from the Republicans and the
Carlists, and does not say much
save to justify his course in Gu
ba, but he does not conceal his
undiminished opposition to the
autonOmist scheme, and on his
coming to Madrid about the mid
die of this month will no doubt
attempt to make common cause
with the Conservatives who OPP
pose the present administration
of the government. He has the
wisdom of patience.
