about preparing it's literature. Each
year it issues a new edition of it's
.sWonderland" book, which is rewritten
and contains entirely fresh and orig
inal matter. Mr.. Chas. S. Fee. the gen
eral passenger agent, believes in let
ting people know what Il great country
they have out there, and Mr.. Wheeler,
who writes these books, delights in
hunting out new places and going
through new experiences for the pub
lies benefit. even at the risk of his
neck. For instance, in 1894 he climbed
Mt. Rainer, on the Pacific coast be-
tween $4,000 and $1,000 feet high and
related The story of the ascent in
Sketches of Wonderland published in
1885. In 1895 he made a terrific climb
in the Bitter Root Range in Montana,
to hunt wild goats so that the sports
men of the land might know where to
go for such game. That a railroad
road company is ready to bear the
heavy expense of such trips aud a man
is willing to make them for such pur-
poses, is evidence that the books will
be read as we we'll know these are.

The Youngest Soldier in the Army of

LIBERTY,
Since the beginning of the revolution
one privileged character has shared the
tent of the president and vice president
of the Cuban republic He is little
Yenancio Verona. or "Veronita." He is
the youngest soldier in the army of
liberty" and has passed through all the
dangers, trials and hardships of that
awful struggle. a few months after the
war broke out boy not more than Il
years old rode into the insurgent
camp at Najassa. He had escaped from
the city Of Puerto Principe the night
before Hating in trent of President
Cisneros' headquarters, he said. Il
have come to join the insurrectos. The
Spaniards have killed my father and I
am the only one left in our family old
enough to fight. If I can have a gun 1
would like, as far as possible. to take
my fathers place and fight for Cuba"
He got the gun, and with it the love
and protection of Salvador Cisneros,
that grand old man who gave up all TO
battle for his countrY's freedom. 4
special order was sent to the United
States for one light rife for young
soldier OF IL years, When the gun was
placed in Veronita'5 hands he was I'M
doubtedly the proudest boy in Cuba
The president became very much at
tached to him, and each night had a
pile Of Sarones Qarge bags made of
plain leaVes) placed under his tent for
Veronitas bed The bond OF affection
between them grew to be as strong as
between father and son. Many times
l have seen them, the boy of IL and
the man of Y, asleep in the same ham
mock. While on the march Veronita
rides one Of the presidents spare horses
and never complains, no matter how
fatiguing the Journey may be, or how
sharp the pangs Of hunger may become
Many attempts have betn made by the
Spariards to ambush and capture or
destroy the provisional government and
its escort of so men, but so far without
success. These dangers. as we'll as
those at the battle of Saratoga, were,
of course, shared by Veronita When it
became apparent that the administra-
ton OF this country was not disposed
to assist the Cubans. and that the war
for Independence might drag on for
many weary years, President Cisneros
determined to send little Veronita to
the United States to school.
Accordingly he embarked one night
from the coast of Cuba in an open boat
with II companions. Escaping the vigil
lance of the Spanish gunboats, he
crossed the 200 miles of ocean and
reached the city of Nassau. on New
Providence Island. From that port he
was brought 70 New York by one Of the
Ward liae steamers. and is at present
attending school at Hampstead. L. l. If
Cuba does not gain her freedom this
winter he wants to go back and fight
for independence until it is an accom-
pliShed fact

ciple OF survival Of the fittest. Where
parties battle for supremacy of princi-
pies We have the best form OF govern
ment- Where there are sincere and
courageous Tivalries and no non-partt-
san flirtations the results are always
for the best. The partisans of the ma
ton have always upheld the govern

Individual affairs. The non-partisan
press say that partisanship is dishonest
and unfair. Is living with fidelity the
truths we believe dishonest and unfair?
If you are Democrats you will be such
in sunshine as well as in storm. The
Democratic party of year ago has
not changed its principles. It is still
devoted to the peoples rights and in
terests. If you may be q Democrat and
vote the nonpartisan ticket, why not
as consistently be Democrat and vote
the Republican ticket? With fidelity
Democrats should support their party S
ticket When you dispense with par
ties you confess that the American peo-
pie are incapable of governing them
selves. Viii the non partisanS perpet-
uate their organization in case of VIC

you into some other party. The super

and their primaries and conventions.
IF it is proper to permit 90 men to
select candidates for office and for US
to vote, it is proper that we should
permit them TO so to the polls for US
and elect their selections, thus confess
ing that we are deficient in patriot
ism and intelligence, This is but one
step toward the destruction Of q free
government. When the Democratic
party is menaced il is not right to vote
with those who are seeking to over
throw it. National questions are the
same in theory eas local Questions-the
same theories apply Democracy has
come out of bad governments. Its
principles and its candidates stand for
the rights of the people and their prop
erty interests. 1t stands in opposition
to the aggressions of the rich the
strong and the tyrannical. 1t is the
duty of the hour to stand by the Dem
ocratic party. If we are true to ou1
faith the Democratic party win fulfill
the pledges in the platform of prin-
cipIes and give the people a form OF
| local government such as no other
party can give.
