WE have, according to the views of the
masters of the armed nations of Europe,
the best possible proof that Japan means
her empire shall have peace. She has En-
glish, French, German and American con.
tractors building vessels for her navy.
She has ordered battleships, armored
cruisers, torpedo boats and torpedo boat
destroyers. OF course, she wants peace.
She means to have the strongest feet in
the Pacific ocean, just to keep the peace.
Mr.. Cramp, just from London, says: "Of
battleships, she has contracted for three,
each Of 14,SOO tons, or larger than the
United States battleship Indiana, and

ALONG with the report of terrible mas
sacres in China, the footing of missionary
stations, ETC., comes the report that the
progressive party in that country pro-
poses to establish at Shanghai univer-
sity for the instruction of Chinese youth
in western arts, science and literature. 1t
is to be regretted that this progressive
party is not strong enough to put down
mobs and stamp out the piracy with
which that country is infested.

the CUBAN SITUATION.

The Spanish situation is desperate and
there must be decision by the govern
ment before long-what course to pur-
sue. There are many disturbances in
Spain, showing the excitement, and al
most the despair of the people. The
Cerlists are in the saddle. The anarchists
are threatening. We do not get the full
particulars, but at intervals there are
newspaper articles and speeches by pub
lie men that amount to confessions that
the resources of Spain are at low ebb,
and she has nothing to show for her ex-
penditures of life and treasure. The
Spanish military system is such that
Cuba cannot be conquered without
changes that it is not in the character Of
the officers to consider, or the capacity of
the men to execute. The thousands of
forts, and the hundreds of towns that are
gsrrisoned swallow more than half, per-
haps two-thirds, of the army, and the rest
are columns marching with uncertain
porpose and accomplishing nothing
This is the rainy season, and there
cannot be much done; but SPANS last
scraps of money are devoured at the rate
of $10000,OO0 month.
The insurgents have recently been
amusing themselves by pretending to
attack Havana, and the Key West bureau
works up the material. One thing is
shown that there are bands of guerrillas
near Havana, who make raids at night;
but the talk that they use dynamite and
rapid firing artillery is sheer nonsense.
They got the Spanish passwords, and
made a fine display for few hours. They
seem to have done some mischief at a
small town IL miles from the city, and
they claim to have assassinated the mayor
on the steps of his residence. OF course,
the city of Havana is not seriously men
aced, and it is equally clear that the
country is not paoifoated The Spanish
cause in Cuba is hopeless, and the Cubans,
as Mark Twain says, exaggerate.

The fruit men of the San Juan valley
will have better market for their fruit
than heretofore by way of the Farming
ton. Gallup road which will be completed
within few days. This is one OF the
most promising fruit sections of New
Mexico. The great drawback has been
lack of adequate transportation facili-
ties, and this is not entirely removed by
the Gallup outlet although the opening
of this thoroughfare will afford vast
improvement over former conditions.

A Matrimonial Bureau

Among the many marriage customs OF
different countries Germany now comes
forward with her marriage schools. And
not to be outdone, we are to have a
Matrimonial Bureau put into practical
operation here. The manager says he
has for some time been impressed with
the idea that there are many young and
middle-aged ladies who would willingly
marry could they find congeniaI compan-
ions. The gentlemen will not be slow
to appreciate and embrace the opportunity
thus offered them to become acquainted
with ladies whom they WOULD not other
wise meet. These bureaus are every
where, in Europe as well al this country,
and thinking people will commend them
as tending to purify the Social and moral
life of a country. Investigation has
proven that the average lives OF married
persons are greater than those OF single
ones. 1t
