SAVED.

The country Is saved. Mark Hanna
is to go to the United States senate.
Gov. Bushnell says it, and as he has
the appointing power his word ought
to be final. Now the people Of the
United States can get down to business
and think about the tariff or the Cuban
question or financial reform, since this
great load is lifted from their minds.
For the last three or four months they
have had no disposition to consider
any other subject, in view Of the i'm
minent possibility that, through the
Vaccinations of Foraker, the senate
would be deprived Of the illustrious or
nament proposed for it in the person
of Mr.. Hanna. For what have the Re-
publican masses eft and bled and
died. if not for that? Of what avail
was the bitter campaign of last fall,
and what boots it that victory crowned
the Republican efforts if this triumph
was not to be celebrated by draping
the portly form Of Mr.. Hanna with the
toga of the senate? The election of
Mr.. Mckinley was mere incidental
trif1e. The real concern of the American
nation was to know what was to be-
come of Hanna, and whether he was
to be the right man in the right place.
That he will answer that descrip-
ton when he sits in a senatorial chair
there can be no question. He is of the
stuff of which the modern senator is
made. He is a millionaire and a lover
Of monopoly. Every combination of
capital will receive his encouragement,
and every trust can go to him to claim
it's reward. He will not be an intruder
at Washington, but will be with
fellows of his own kidney and fit into
his place as if it had been made for
him. Now let perturbations of the
political mind cease, and let US get
back to prosperity-making once more
Our institutions are saved Hanna is
to be senator. The great conflict is
over, and the sole important issue Of it
is settled. Hanna and hosanna!

against the harbarous and inhuman
methods" of Spain in conducting war in
Cuba, declaring that this government
should recognize the insurgents as bellig
erents and that Cuba had demonstrated
that it was her manifest destiny that, ike
Mexico. she should be free and independ-
cnt without the payment 10 SPAIN OF any
indemnity
In the course of his remarks Senator AL
len humorousy declared there was no di-
vision in the populist ranks on the ques-
ton of Cuban liberty. In this whole mat
ter he thought there had been too much
sacrifice to the spirit of CommercialtSm,
and it was time this government had a
little more humanity and a little more
AmeriCanism.
Senator Chandler sent letter of sym
pathy and hope for the relief and indie
