A CUBAN SENSATION.

The dispatches at this writing are
that Spain has directed General Wey-
Ter TO close out the war in Cuba inside
of three weeks, even if he has to con-
clude a peace with the insurgents by a
sale of the island to them. 1t is added
that fears of a Carlist uprising, and al
SO of the probable attitude of President
Mckinley have operated to bring Spain
to this state of mind
We shall expect to see the dispatch
denied, but We shall continue to think
that there is some bottom to it. About
i've weeks ago the ''Record-Union" at
considerable length set forth it's reasons
for believing that the followers of The
Pretender, the head of the Carlist fac
ton in Spain, were preparing to rise
again. One of the most significant in
dications was the resignation of his
claims by the present head of the Car
lists, in favor of his son, he being in
duced to take that step by the family of
, his second wife, who is related to a
Royal house that is antagonistic to
his pretensions
In that article the rise and progress
of the Carlist cause We're sketched and
reasons alluded to for the belief that
the party now sees the opportunity to
again call its following to arms. Since
then We have been at pains to note
Spanish press expression, and the
movements of leading disaffected Span
1ards, and are now more than ever Of
the opinion that the Spanish Govern
ment fears just such rising. Should
1t take place Spanish credit would be
hat on its back. 1t could not rally with
the Cuban insurrection on hand and
without European credit the integrity
OF the reigning house would be in peril
1t Is reasonable to believe, therefore.
that there is some truth in the story
mat the Spanish crown has resolved to
get rid of Cuba and secure the best
possible price for it, or to crush the re-
peilion at once. if it is possible for the
present Spanish forces on the island To
accomplish that work Either outcome
would restore Spanish credit. free Spain
from possible complication with the
United States and enable her TO nip
Cariist ambition once more. which if
not crushed at once. may develop into
home revolution. with which there is
reason to believe a very considerah bile
portion of the Spanish army above the
H4nk OF non-commissioned officers
would sympathfze.

HE DIDN'T OBJECT TO SMOKE.

He was travelling in France, and he
had comforted himself down in the cor

so easily, so elegantly-he was a gen.
tieman-an American gentleman.
He placed handful of papers by his
side He produced jeweled cigar case
from his breast pocket. He put a cigar
between his lips. He closed the case
with a snap and returned it to it's rest
ing place-slowly, calmly. From his
trousers pocket he produced a pearl
uenknife, with which he clipped the
cigar and then returned the knife to
its resting place-calmly. slowly. From
the waistcoat pocket-what a host of
pockets men have, to be sure-he pro-
duced a silver matchbox and struck a

The gentleman paused. The gentle

The train glided out of the station.
The young lady arranged her skirts.
and as she did she saw the match burn
to the end She saw the match fall
from the gentleman's hand. She saw
the cigar case produced, the cigar re-
placed among its fragrant companions,
and the case returned to the pocket.
She chuckled--almost aloud.

Several arrests have been made in
san Francisco of parties charged with
selling impure, adulterated and spur
ious food. This action promises to
bring the whole question OF food adul-
teration to the fore again. If it re-
suits in evolving the truth, great good
viii be done. That there is much food
adulteration Is true, or else the United
States chemists appointed TO the Office
of inquiry, are greatly mistaken. We
are convinced that the adulteration is
great and general 1t is dangerous to
health in some cases and in others it
is simply a robbery OF the consumer
by selling him something of little value
for a more costly article.

The dispatches from Europe are of a
character that render formation of sat
isfactory judgment as to what will be
the outcome of the Cretan question alb
sOlutely impossible. All that the cool
reader can conclude is that almost any
thing may happen within this or the
following week, either collapse of the
excitement or war, either a breaking up
of the relations between Russia, Eng
land and Germany, or the drawing of
those nations into new compact; eth
er the dismantling of the Turkish
power, or the reinforcement of the tot
tering throne of the Sultan. 1t Is a good
deal as the old-time almanac used to
read, About this time look for a

victs of the United States are short
term men, it will be seen that the effect
of prison discipline is to be manifest
outside the walls soon and constantly.
plining the convict mind is to give it oc-
cupation, and this is best when related to
manual labor. 1t follows that such Ia
Dor must be of an order that will keep
the mind healthily employed and turn
it as much as is possible from the direc-
ton of the criminal tendency in which
it has momentum.
Holding these things to be true, we are
compelled to take issue with the state
ment of Mr.. Wright that it cannot be
safely argued that the short-term man
is particularly benefited by employment
in one or another particular class of la
Dor. We think that the order of labor
good of the short-termer. The labor
ought to be of an order that is not NOR
ally debasing, of course, as Mr.. Wright
comedies, and the employment must en-
gage the mind. Now, if in order to Sc
cure these essentials, it is necessary to
establish costly plants, then the State
should provide them.
However, Mr.. Wright agrees that all
experience is one in the judgment that
the labor shall not be-as stated already
-debasing. and that it must engage
the mind. The short-term man is not
expected to remain long enough to be
taught in the higher order of manual
machine or part of machine, it cannot
be of much use to him when discharged
The work of such convicts must there
fore be of rather low order Of manual
labor as compared with higher order
of skilled labor
There is nothing, then, that so nearly
fills the bill as the preparation of rock
for road material 1t is productive Ia
Dor; it is not skilled labor; it employs
the mind because the convict can con-
template it's uses and realize their bene-
ficence. 1t is heavy enough to keep the
physical man in order and to develop
the muscle and strengthen the frame.
We conclude therefore that the Legis-
lature has decided wisely in maintain
ing the rock crushing plant at the Fol-
som Branch Prison.

So far as investigation of the State
Printing office is concerned in the effort
to show default and malfeasance on the
part of it's administrator, the affair has
collapsed. Not single thing has been
shown indicating even the shadow Of
Printer. There may be honest difference
of opinion as to exercise of judgment
in the matter of his applying or
not applying for deficiency con-
sent from the State Board of Elk
aminers. But not so much as the
suspicion of stain has been established.
Those who preferred charges against
the State Printer have failed to sub
stantiate them in any respect, and since
il is shown that he handles no money of
the State, and that all of his demands
pass under the scrutiny of an auditing
board independent of him, and superior
to his office, it is clear that the sensa-
tional allegations against the printer
have fallen fiat and stale. There pro-
State Printing Office. Indeed, that can
scarcely be questioned, and even the
printer himself has said there is need
of reform in some respects. One of
these was noticed yesterday, regarding
the mutilation of proofs. But so far

Printer was concerned, it has evaporat-

A German Cavalier Raced with Rail-

The young German cavalier had
failed to pop the question, and the
young lady left the house in dudgeon,
telling their mutual host that her moth
er had no use for such chicken-heart-
ed son-in-iaw, says the New York
Herald.
A little later the host repeated this
"a the youth. who really loved the girl.
and had merely delayed proposing until
he could do so at her own home. His
horse stood near the door. and he sprang
into the saddle and galloped after the
train. which had left quarter of all
hour before. Owing to benign provi-
dence and the management of this
country railroad, he caught the train
before it had reached the next station,
which was Kraow. He spied the young
lady at the window of a first-class com
partment, and riding up to the train be-
fore it came TO full stop, almost shout
ed breathlessly: my dear Miss -,

Old Mexican Mines.

Whenever cave is newly discovered
in New Mexico or Arizona the finders
first hope is that he has unearthed an
old Spanish or Mexican mine, but this
seldom or never has proved TO be the
case. Generally these holes in the
mountains are natural caves in lime
stone or sandstone formations, but
sometimes they lie between walls of
hard rock, which perhaps contain
mineral deposits, indicating that the
primitive civilized Indians may have
dug their way in following soft
streak in search of tale to use in pot
terry making with no thought for
precious metals. Stalactites, snowy
white. hang from theirroofs, and where
mineral water has percolated these
crystallizations take on gorgeous me-
tallic hues Human bones are some
times found in these caves and other
evidences of human work or former
occupancy The Coffee cave and Rob
insons cave. i'm the Black range, in
southern New Mexico. have been ex-
plored for several hundred feet and
other large caves in that region remain
to be explored.
