WHAT IS ADMITTED ABOUT CUBA

The Qualifications for the present re-
volt against the Spanish rule in Cuba.
The existence of rebellion in the
island which Spainsfor two years has
m ade no progress in subdueing.
The brutality and inhumanity with
VIII ich the war is conducted by Spain.
The destruction of the property Of
Ameri can citizens to the amount of
$50, ZOO, 900.
The subsection of American citizens
to arrest and incarceration upon mere
suspicion of sympathy with the in
surgents.
The inability of this government to
properly protect the lives, liberty and
property of it's citizens.
The degradation of the contest into
war of indiscriminate devastation
and slaughter.
The utter worthlessness of Cuba to
either Spain or the insurgents if the
war is continued.
No other great power similarly stu
ated would have manifested the same
patient endurance that the United
States has shown during this rebel
lion or the one which preceded it.
All of the foregoing statements and
others are admitted facts in the Gu
ban question. They are asserted by
the Cubans and their friends and sym
pathizers, and not even denied by
Spain. They are admitted by Grover
Cleveland and Richard Olney in their
communications to congress, as will
be seen by even casual reading of
those documents Yet in the face of
this Indictment, Grover Cleveland has
the hardihood to defy congress to
provide remedy after he has con-
fessed his in ability to suggest one

THE CUBAN TROCHA.ucs


The war reports from Cuba have a
great deal to say about the trocha. 1t
is a new term in military. science, and
tn ere is more or less confusion in the
public mind as to what it means. In
a general way, it signifies strategic
line across given scope Of territory,
separating one army from another.
The line in the present instance ex-
tends fnom Havana to the southern
coast o the island, and it's original
purpose was to divide the insurgent
forces, part of which were in the
western portion of the island under
Maceo, and the rest in the eastern
portion under Gomez and Garcia. 1t
consists principally of barbed- wire
fence feet 6 inches high, with senti-
mel detachments Immediately behind
it. About 40 yards back of it is a
trench 5 feet wide and 4 feet deep,
with a breastwork of palmetto logs;
and SO yards further back are log
houses in which the troops are quar-
tered. The number of soldiers re-
quired to guard the whole line is
about $1,000. It's construction cost

ELEPHANTS IN INDIA.

Nobody may shoot an elephant on
the Annamulle or Tipperah Hills, or
anywhere else throughout India and
Celyon, without special permission,
unless it be ''rogue" Or plainly dan
gerous and destructive. The capture
of the wild elephant and his careful
training are things carried out under
an admirable and scientific system,
which gives to the administration in
all it's branches, and to the native
courts, superb staff of massive and
faithful servants, the commissariat
and artillery elephants.
Although they seldom or never
breed in captivity, the grand crea-
lures are easy to keep and manage,
invaluable for many special purposes,
and at their demise whatever tusks
they may carry go to the worlds
stock of ivory. The older it is the
better generally it's quality. But in
any case, how senseless it seems to
extripate the living source of this
beautiful commodity as the reckless
hunters and ignorant native chiefs
and merchants are still allowed to do
in Central Africa! When shall we
see the governments Of these vari-
Gus regions sensible enough to per-
ceive and proclaim that live eieph-
ants are very much more valuable
even commercially than DEED ones,
and that the preservation of these
stately and serviceable animals shall
be henceforward fixed policy for
African benefit.
1t has been truly remarked that di-
rectly the native and foreign hunters
are convinced that one live elephant
is worth dozen tusks, they will be
as keen to preserve the animal as
they are now to exterminate him.
We might plead earnestly, even upon
the ground of aestheticism and natu-
raj science, for the protection in flu
ture of the noble beast, whose ma
jesty and tranquility of mein SO well
become his silent haunts and philo-
sophie, harmless existence. The ears
of those, however, who massacre the
innocent giant to emit from him TWEEN
ty or thirty pounds of material for
paper knives and shoe horns would
be closed to such remonstrances. The

Some of the Vermont newspaper
quilts, which are short of other sub
jects etc. just now are busy in trying
to show how this State is suffering
from unequal representation in the
lower house of the legislature. Their
efforts in the line OF what they would
call reform would be of more avail if
it were possible to change matters in
their generation. Looked at from
some standpoints they are probably
correct, from other points they are
wrong. Try whatever scheme can be
devised representation cannot be ex-
actly even and any attempt to change
it in Vermont will be beset with
difficulties which are as great as any
which now exist. While the larger
towns have less representation they
have larger men, or should have them
and they make Up in influence what
they lack in numbers. The hue and
cry arises largely from some cranky
heads, which are trying to start up
something new every now and then
to give themselves notoriety. Yer
mont has prospered tolerably well for
a hundred years or more under the
present system and can probably
stand it while longer the same

The store is practically a commercial
school, where the boy or young man gets
his sole knowledge of business. The en-
ployer should never forget that he is first
of all a teacher and an example. In the
school or college the teacher counts for
more than the system. The most success
full of these institutions have been those
whose teachers have been men of strong
personality, who have Influenced pupils by
the force of personal contact. The same Is
true in the commercial schooling boy gets
in a business house. It's the strong per-
sonality and inspiration Of some employer
that influences the career of the boy, and
furnishes him with a stimulus and an ideal.
The employer cannot escape this great re-
sponsibility of example. and the speaker
considered this the first and most impor-
tant requisite in the training of a sales
