R. BURTON ON A WHEEL.
The Abilene Man Finds the Machine
WobbIy but Sticks to It.

The Abilene Chronicle says:
]. r. Burton took out an accident pol
icy this morning and then engaging the
services of Frank Quinn and a bicycle
started out to learn to ride the wheel.
That he hadn't as much confidence in
his ability to become a successful rider
as he has in himself as a politician was
in evidence from the start, though,
through the care of his teacher, who
kept a firm hold on the machine, he
got no falls The wheel. however. was
as wObbly a member of the legiSla-
ture in the heat of a senatorial fight
and took up as much right of way as
a hot sport carrying a hop tea jag. Mr..
Burton did not master the wheel in his
first lesson, but will be on deck again
tomorrow if it doesn't rain.

tainly that sounds we'll. II is sOnorous;
and there is a pleasing contrast between
costs and lasts" We suspect the
speakers ear has deceived him in this
matter. Look at the remark how we
will, il is impossible to give it an intelii-
gible meaning.
And. as q matter Of fact, 1t is the
sheerest gibberish. The cost of capital
and wealth is the same now that it was
az the beginning. They are created by
labor. and labor is their cost. That
man was wise who said that money is
the blood of the poor. II is more than
that. 1t is their bone and muscle. Into
it has gone thousands of years of sur
fering and sorrow
LabOr-the labor Of the toiling masses
has dug wealth and capital out of the
ground, and the cost of it is the hard
ships the toilers have endured. the bur-
dens they have borne and are bearing.

A Cuban Victory.

Information has been received from
Havana within the last few days stating
that Victoria de Las Tunas. one of the
Spanish stronghods on the island. has
fallen into the hands Of the insurgents.
This information establishes the fall
sity of General Weylor's recent declara-
tion to the effect that he had virtually
succeeded in reducing Cuba 10 submis-
sion.
But this is not the only contradiction
which events have placed upon the dec
laratiOn OF General Weyler. Some two
or three weeks ago it was announced
from Madrid that the first official act
Of the new premier would Re TO send
over to Cuba a supplemental force Of
1000 men. Why put the government
OF Spain to the embarrassing necessity
of sending over this supplemental force
to Cuba if there is any reliance what
ever 70 he put in the claims of General
Weyler? This question clearly suggests
its own answer.
Still another proof of Cubas vitality
in spite OF the long war which has de-
vastated her fields and destroyed her
population is furnished by the returns
of the recent election. In that election
over 10000 Cubans marched to the poIl,
and declared by their ballots that Cuba
was still independent of Spain. Had il

Our industrial Grow+h.

While farm products still constitute
the bulk OF our American exports, il is
gratifying to observe from the extended
character of our foreign trade relations
that the old world is beginning TO recos-
nize the superior quality of our manu-
factured articles.
This recognition has been forced upon
our patrons across the water solely by
the commanding excellence which our
manufactured products have attained in
recent years. Since the late war be-
tween the states, the people of both sec
tions of the country have devoted them
selves more largely 70 Industrial enter
prises. and the result is that the United
States is today recognized as one of the
greatest industrial powers Of the globe.
IN 1860 the value of all the manufact-
ured articles exported by this country
to foreign markets amounted TO only
SAC. .345S92. or barely 1876 per cent 0f
our total exports. In 1870 the value OF
our manufactured exports aggregated
S6S,277,164. or Is per cent Of our total
exports. showing a decided gain over the
record for 1860. In 1890 our manufact-
ured exports aggregated S151 .102.376 IN
value. or 1877 per cent of our total eX-
ports. Since that time the record OF
our industrial growth as disclosed in
the character OF our foreign trade rela-
tiOns has been as follows.
