lost the whele territory, and its officials

the part OF the Spaniards has ceased. In
ITS place we are confronted with "a
saturnalia OF fiendish outrage, torture and

How the New Administration Pre-
poses to Save Millions.
The new Naval administration will soon
take under consideration plans already
matUred by naval experts for laying up
some OF the United STATE warships in
reserve, according to the practice of every
European navy. Last year, exclusive Of
the coast survey vessels, sixty one ships
were kept in active service at an expendi-
ture of SIS 900 900, aud in many instances
with little regard to economical business
methods.
The Asiatie squadron, which had been
re-eDforccd TO six ships during the China
Japan war to protect American interests,
was maint tained intact after the necessity
for sucn strength had disappeared. -Four
OF the finest ships were kept in the Netii-
terraDean, most OF the time in the single
port Of Smyrna, when, in the opinion OF
experienced Naval officers, one good vessel
would have accomplished the same result.
on the Atlantic home station the Cuban
complication led TO wise exhibition of
Naval preparedness, TO use Capt. MabanS
coinage, which caused severe strain on
the amount held in a precarious Treasury
for Naval exigencies. The question OF
holding ships in reserve is one Of EaTa-
mount Importance. when it is considered
that the cruiser New York cost 81 ,131
per day last year
The following table shows what would
be saved by putting the ships in reserve:

THE DEMOCRATS CONFIDENT.
VIII Wage Vigorous silver Cam
paigu This Fall.

The visit which Chairman James K.
rnittec and Daniel j. Campau, chairman
OF the campaign and finance committees of
the national committee, are making to
Denver and the West is one that may
have an important bearing Oh the party.
1t is the desire Of prominent Democratic
leaders to continue the national organlza-
ton and have il be of assistance III the
campaigns OF this fall.
The trip 10 the West, undertaken by
Senator Jones, and his right-hand man
in the campaign will, it is understood,
embrace visits to several large cities in
the Bryan states, conferences win be had
in each with leading men in the silver
movement or all parties, and a plan of
permanent organization will be discussed
1t is regarded rs particularly desirable
that the national committee continue it's
activity IN view Of the persistence Jf Chair
man Hanna, VINO means to maintain head
quarters in this city and keep up the agi-
tation for the preservation OF the single
gold standard as long as single Collar
remains of the thirteen million dollars coa-
trfbUted TO The campaign fund last year.
The Republican committee is already
thoroughly organized FOR business, and is
paying salaries to all its officers, which
are so szeabie and satisfactory that men
like Major Dick, of Ohio, prefer these
places to anything the President has at
the pie counter.
IL Is believed bere that the Republican
national committee viii this fall be little
more than an auxiliary of the Ohio COM
miJtcc aud devote Itself almost wholly
to helping out Mr. Hanna's campaign for
the Senate.
The Democratic members of Congress
from Ohio say that there are excellent
prospects of carrying the State this year.
They anticipate no difficulty in securing
harmoHious alliance of all the silver
forces. The expectation is that James E.
Campbell viii again bead the ticket for
governor, although the names of Paul j.
Sorg ard F. c. Layton, ex-Congressmen,
have been mentioned.
There are fail elections In New York,
Massachusetts and Iowa this year In
a little over two weeks there will be
State election in Michigan and a large
number OF municipal elections, including
these in Chicago and Cincinnati. The sill
yer men are exceedingly hopeful OF carry
ing Chicago, where they have united on
Carter II Harrison, son OF the famous ex-
mayer. who was assasSinated during the

The New York Suns Havana correspon-

abandon all further effort TO hold Cuba, in
the hope that what few men can be fur
nished otherwise may serve to save the
Philippine Islands to the crown. Gen
Weyler's withdrawal OF all troops into the
few seapoTts left under his control vir-
tually surrenders the struggle; but the

Imperative Warning From Havan.

Imperative Warning From Havana.
According to the Havana correspond
ence OF conservative New York papers,
there can no longer be any doubt that
famine, sickness, mutiny and anarchy pre-
vail generally within the Spanish lines
on the Island OF Cuba. The troops, being
unable to supply their necessities with
the worthless paper currency In which
they are paid, are permitted TO plunder,
and the results may be imagined. Mer-
chants are in revolt against Weylcrs
orders compelling them to accept scrip,
and even if they did take il. they could
not use it to replenish their stocks. Thou
sands of country people are naked and
dying of starvation and fever around the
environs Of Havana. Thirty million dol
lars, face value, OF discretlibed bank notes
are sfloat in the territory within the cap
tain-general's jurisdiction, and nothing
short of substitution OF good money can
relieve the situation.
As nothing of that kind is possible, the
condition Of affairs which must ensue In
another week or two may be judged by
that at present. over 900 Spanish SOL
diers are admitted by the officials 10
have deserted since tie troops were paid
IN paper, and probably the actual num-
Der is many times that.
The end is so near, If we may credit
appearances, and the scenes and horrors
that must accompany it SO readily con-
ceivable, in the light OF antecedent cir
cumstances, that we earnestly hope the

Our Trip 10 Little Rock.

While ordinarially the trip of del egate to the Masonic Grand Lodge wound not be of general interest to our readers. yet incidents of the trip might be of interest to all.
 By the way the Masonic Grand Lodge of Arkansas is no omall affair. It is the largest body of representa- tive men that ever assemblies a the State capitol. The annual vislt of the Masons from over 500 lodges in the State is looked forward to by the citi- zens of Little Rock as an tenn of con siderable consequence. It taxes their hotels and boarding houses to their utmost capacity to care for the over 600 delegates and visitors.
 By attending the Grand Lodge per son has the opportunity of meeting men who figure most prominently in State affairs, either relgiously, poliric- ally, educationally or professionally. In fact men sent to the Grand Lodge are generally representative men.
 The Masonic Temple at Little Rock is one of the finest in the South. cost ing the handsome sum of S145, ,000. The structure is seven stories and towers high above any other building in the city. For architecture and con- yeniences. the State capitol building pales into nsgnifcance when compar- ed with this magnificent temple. There IS, however, bonded indebted ness hanging over the temple of $45, ,000 which is going to take consi derable fnanciering to save it from the mort gagor.
 The Grand Lodge is composed of a Grand Master, his fourteen subordinate officers, together with the Past Grand Masters and three representa- tves from each of the subordinate lodges in the State.
 C.C. Ayers of It. Smith was the retiring Grand Master and J. B. Baker of Melbourne is the present one. MT. Baker enjoys the unique distinction of also being Grand Master of the Odd ! Fellow order of the State.
 During the past ten years we have i had the pleasure of attending five ! sessions of the Grand Lodge and during i these visits have made many acqnaint- ] ances, many of which have grown into | warm friendship. Among those We would mention Dr. J. w. Sorrels, P. G. NJ of Mansfield, Scott county, 5. T. Rowe and Judge Edgar E Bryant of Sebastian county; II. P. Cleveland and Mrs. A. c Cleveland, his wife, both attorneys at law, of Judsonia; Congress man J. x. Little of Ft.

To Cure Catarrh.

Do not depend upon snuff, inhalents or other local applications. Catarrh is constitutional disease ane can be sue c1ssfully treated only by the means of constitutional remedy like Hood' s Sarsaparilla, which thoroughly purifies the blood and removes the scrofulous taints which cause catarrh. The great number of testimonials from those who have been cured of catarrh by Hoods Sarsaparilla prove the unequall- ed power of this medicine to conqer this disease. If troubled with catar1h give Hoods Sarsaparilla fair trial at once.
