The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1897-11-23

General Blanco has arrived in
Cuba with the olive branch in
one hand and the sword in the
other. General Weyler, the
modern Alva, has gone. Whether
a change will now come over
SPANS fortunes remains to be
seen. We fancy the peace offer
ings come too late, that reforms
granted reluctantly at the swords
point, granted when it became
evident to the Spanish crown
that its sovereignty over Cuba
was slipping away. will not be
jumped at by the men fighting
for freedom, for life, men who
will go down in history as rebels
if they fail, as patriots if they
succeed. And if they have the
stuff in them of which patriots
are made they will scorn Spain's
advances, her proffers of peace.
The Cubans are not reduced to
that subsection which would lead
them to surrender with the hon
ors of war. They should be of
fering those terms to Spain,
rather than having such terms
of surrender proffered them, for
the Spanish are the ones cooped
up in the towns, besieged as it
were. For the good of Spain,
all that General Blanco should
ask of the Cubans is to be per-
mitted to withdraw, with the
Spanish army, with their arms
and accoutrements, unmolested,
to Spain. Spanish pride will
never thus humble itself save
under the stress of dire necessity.
A little firm urging from Mr..
Mckinley might be of service TO
Spain as well as Cuba, might
prevail upon Spain to make a
virtue of necessity.
Meanwhile we have a promise
from General Blanco that the
warfare will no longer be car
ried on in a way to make very
mockery of Christianity, Of civil
lization. My method OF war-

gracious act of the federal gov

nature. 1t is fair to assume that
the crust of the earth in that
section will more readily yield to
internal pressure and will be

territory.
The wise men of the scientific
world tells US that according to
latest information earthquakes
are caused by great masses of
rock-boulders, SO to speak, as
large as Notwithstanding
detached from the interior of the
earth's crust and falling with
terrific force against another
portion of the interior, causing a
jar or tremor that we call an
earthquake. Occasionally the
blow is so hard that the surface
of the earth is cracked, and
sometimes the pressure causes
volcanic vents to vomit forth
the melted lava that is lubricat-
ing the axis upon which the
earth revolves. This process,
repeated at intervals, is more
likely to strengthen than to
weaken the portion of the world
where the shock is felt by ulti-
mately thickening the crust at
that point, whereas the locality
losind tho huge boulder is cor
respondingly weakened and is
rendered more susceptible to "a
shock when it comes later on.
No doubt, underground Montana
has played its part bombarding
the bottom of India and the isles
of the sea ard Thursdays little
shock was merely a return com
pliment, carrying out in nature
the spirit Of reciprocity now
generally recognized in the
diplomatic relations of mankind.
Western Mining World.
The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1897-11-23

Thursday morning, Nov. 4th.
at 2:30 the ntermountain sec
tons of Montana enjoyed brief
entertainment in the shape of an
earthquake. The sensations in
spired by these exhibitions of
nature are indefinable, but they
bring out the characteristics OF
people in a way that strengthens
the belief that each man lives in
a little world of his own, in so
far as his mentality is concerned.
This was illustrated in the city
of Butte. In this great mining
camp the natural inference of
many was that mighty subter-
ranean explosion had taken
place, the perpendicular ellipse
described by the wave line Of
the seismic disturbance giving
the momentary impression of
falling as if the surface grounds
had sunken suddenly into some
great excavation. Many slept
profoundly through the entire
performance and had to take
their information second handed
while others felt an elevating
sensation, it being their first
earthquake, and they were proud
of it. Scores of people were
much alarmed, and while they
we're hastily debating as to
whether they could best employ
the brief time left them on earth
in bidding goodbye to friends,
making their peace with God, OF
exchanging their night shirts
for their pantaloons, the danger
passed away. An interesting
study would be an analysis OF
the varied sensations produced
on the human mind by an earth
quake shock.
1t is well to bear in mind, how
ever, that the dangers attending
an earthquake shock in this re
gion are more imaginary thar

perience anything greater than {
