AID For CUBA.

There are two reasons why the appeal is
sued by Secretary Sherman for aid to the
suffering Cubans should be responded to
with some degree of liberality. First, there
can be no doubt that aid is needed. For
nearly three years the island has been the
scene of a devastating war. It's industries
have been destroyed, it's crops ruined, its
commerce broken up and its people driven
and herded together for the avowed purpose
of starving them. Sickness and starvation,
plague and famine have worked together
until the condition of the people must be
truly miserable. There is abundant evidence
that this is the case and that outside relief
is sorely needed. Being needed, it should be
extended, but an additional reason why it
should be is that large part of the popu-
lar clamor for interference by the United
States in the war has been that humanity
demanded that the sufferngs OF the people
be brought to an end. 1t has been urged that
the government and people would be ever
lastingly disgraced if they did not come to
the relief of the suffering Cubans. If this
was a good argument for engaging in war
with Spain it is much stronger one in
-
volve war; If humanity demanded that the
government should mobilize its army and
navy for the relief of the Cuban sufferers,
much more does it demand that the people,
especially those who have been urging this
view. should mobilize themselves to extend
relief by peaceable methods and through
the ordinary channels Of philanthropic ac-
ton. In fact as a relief measure, the peace
able method has decided advantage. War
with Spain would have involved months of
preparation and delay, and it might have
been quite long time before the desired
relief would have come. Under the pres
ent method the Spanish authorities in Cuba
will do all in their power to facilitate OPP
erations, and contributions will reach the
people as soon as they can be forwarded
A line of steamers plying between New
York and Havana has agreed to carry con-
tributions free of charge, and the Spanish
authorities have agreed to admit them free
of duty. A Washington dispatch says
Consul General Lee tonight cabed the
state Department just what is wanting at
this JunctUre, and his list is as follows: Sum-
mer clothing, second-handed or otherwise
principally for women and children; medi-
cines for fevers, including large proper
ton OF quinine; hard bread, cornmeal, ba-
con, rice, lard, potatoes, beans, peas. salt
flsh. principally Goldfish; any canned goods,
especially condensed milk for the starving
children. Money will also be useful to Sc
cure nurses. medicines and for many other
necessary purposes.
Under these circumstances the Cubans
have right to expect that their friends and
sympathizers in the United States will come
to their relief, and the press and people of
other countries will be apt to wonder if
those who have been so clamorous for the
relief Of the Cubans by war will be as
anxious to aid them by the more effective
methods of peace.

THE OUTLOOK FOR CURRENCY
REFORM.

A Washington special in the Journal of
yesterday defines with approximate ac-
curacy the position of President Mckinley
in regard to currency reform legislation. 1t
shows that he is entirely sound on the
money question and in full sympathy with
the present movement for currency reform,
though perhaps more in favor of making
haste slowly than some advocates of the
movement are. The main points are that
he would approve of an international BIZ
metallic agreement if it were attainable,
but he believes it impossible; that he is
therefore in favor of the single gold stand
ard and of moving steadily in that direction,
gaining and holding as much ground
possible and taking care not to risk losing
any by trying to gain too much at once or
by forcing the issue in such a way as to
get out of touch with public sentiment. The
position ought to be satisfactory to the
friends of currency reform, for it leaves
them free to continue the campaign of agi-
tation and education until such time as
public sentiment will unite in demanding
all they want That time is very near at
hand, if not already here. Public sentiment
in favor of currency reform has been grow
ing very rapidly of late, and there is reason
to believe it will derive fresh impetus from
the forthcoming report of the monetary
commission and the discussion which will
follow. The conservative business senti-
ment of the country is already practically
unanimous in favor of the principles which
are likely to be embodied in that report,
and the Endorsement and adoption of the
report by business organizations throughout
the country will contribute materially to the
growth of sound money sentiment. There
is reason to believe, too, that Congress is
about ready to fall into line in support Of
such a measure as the commission will sub
nit. Then, when the President sees that
public opinion and the time are ripe for
forward movement, he will favor it. All
things considered, the outlook for currency
reform on Republican lines is very encour-
aging

The Republican conference in this city
was not expected that over two hundred at
the outside would attend, and it was
thought those would be largely from the
counties nearest the city. When those who
came to attend the conference got together
it was found that every part of the State
was represented, and what was expected
to be a small gathering assumed the pro-
portions of state conventions a few years
ago. Morrison Hall had 300 chairs, but it
would not hold half of those who sought adj
mission. During the day, until late in the
afternoon, the attendance in the Criminal
courtroom was as large as the hall could
well accommodate
The spirit of those in attendance was such
as is only inspired by courage and deter
mination. The feeling and purpose of the
Republicans present must have been pain
full surprise to the opposition, who have
been pleasing themselves with the idea that
the Republican party in Indiana is anguish
ing in Indifference and uncertainty. So far
from that, the men who came up to the con-
ference reported general Improvement of
business and industry in all their COM
munties--fresh evidence of the wisdom of
Republican policy. They believe that Re-
publican success is essential to the general
prosperity of the country. One of the best
evidences of Republican confidence is found
in the large number of able and well-posted
Republicans who are aspirants for state
offices.
The Journal presents its readers several
Of the speeches made in the conference by
those who are esteemed and have a right
to be regarded as party leaders in Indiana.
On the broad aims of the party in regard to
the administration of affairs and the legis-
lation which is essential to the welfare of
the whole people, there was never greater
difference of opinion regarding the scope of
the civil-servce law, but the most expert
enced and nearly all those who have poten-
tial influence in the party believe that
Republican Congress and President have the
wisdom and patriotism to adopt a wise
course upon what must be of small personal
Importance except to a very few of very
worthy men.
The Republicans who met yesterday go to
their homes with fresh courage and assur-
ance, since in attendance and spirit the
meeting was a surprise to those who came
as we'll as to the committee that called it.

haps imperil the result. Indiana Repub-
leans are not of the suikjng kind, and the
party at present is conspicuously free from
fractional spirit. but we must reckon with
human nature as it is, and no one will deny
that the party is more apt to have the ac-

AN INFLUX OF TEACHERS
THEIR VARIOUS ASSOCIATIONS AND

MANY of the Visitors WOmen-Presi-

ans of the state.

The annual gathering of the schoolteach-
ers Of the State has brought to the city
an unusually large number of the men
and women interested in educational mat
ters AS usual there is also d large num-
Der of publishing houses represented by
men who are adopts in getting themselves
into the good graces of those with whom
they come in contact. These men are most
ly at the Grand Hotel, where they have
opened sumptuous quarters for the recep-
ton of those who may become their pat
irons Monday afternoon the teachers be-
gan tc arrive, but it was not until yeSter-
day that they were in sufficient numbers
to make Il apparent that their annual meet
ing was about to be held. In this State
there are between eight thousand and nine
thousand teachers of the district schools,
and there are probably half as many more
teachers engaged in the graded and high
err schools, making 4 total CT nearly ffteen
Thousand sctoCItee cheers from which to
draw for the attendance at the annual
meetings. 1t is not surprising then that the
hotels and lodging houses should present
an unusually animate scene at this time.
Another thing that adds largely to the at
Effectiveness of the crowd is the fact that
so many of those in attendance are wom-
en-. The usual attendance at these meetings
is about six hundred, but it is thought this
year there will be many more than that
number here
The meetings began yesterday morning
with the annual meeting of the Township
Trustees Association. and in the afternoon
there were several other meetings of the
different sections of the Teachers Associa-
ton. The first meeting of the general asso-
citation was held last night in the House
of Representatives. Section meetings will
continue to-day and tomorrow and the
general association will also hold meetings
both DAYS.

IRVINGTON HAS LIGHT.
The Electric Lights Turned on for
First Time Last Night.

Irvington has electric lights. They were
turned on at dark yesterday evening.
Workmen have been busy for several days
attaching the fixtures, but Irvington citi-
zens did not expect electric light until next
year.
AS the arc lights blazed out on Washing
ton street, from National to Central ave-
nue., citizens turned out en- masse, antici-
pating a fire or a meteoric shower. They
could hardly believe their eyes as they
gazed at the lights. They stood about in
crowds and were reinforced by other peo-
pie of the suburb until Washington street
was turned into q promenade of surprised
and happy citizens. The moon, on which
Irvington people have been depending on
for light, went under a cloud and remained
there all evening. The Town Council men,
bers walked arm in arm with one another
and surveyed the result of their labors for
light, and there was general rejoicing in the
suburb.
