The tariff question seems to be turtll-
er out of politics than at any time for
many years. The cause Of protection
has won permanent triumph. There
is still discussion rs to certain sched-
ules. but the free trade idea has passed
out for this generation, at least. DEM
oerats are ready to talk most anything
but that. The Dingley tariff continues
to show improvement in revenues each
month. 1t will not be tinkered at the
present session. Before six months
more the treasury will be selt-sustain-
inc and an this talk about deficits viii
be forgotten. All the Republican party
has TO do is 10 LET things take their
proper and natural course. squelch
any meddling with the currency and
keep the ship Of state sailing on the
course set by the st. Louis platform.
Prosperity is here. The trade reports
show it. The volume of business was
never rs large rs last month. II beats
even the high tide of %. Our surplus
of exports over imports is immense,
which means % handsome net income
for Uncle sam. OF course some are
still dissatisfied. Those who hope the
time will come when all that will be
necessary will be TO open their mouths
and mamma will be rained down from
heaven will never be satisfied but these
form only Il small proportion Of our
whole people.

sufficient, no meeting WAS held, but

A Spanish officer named Ruiz was
shot by the Cubans recently under pc
culiar circumstances The Spanish
offer of autonomy had been spurned
by the insurgents and notice was given
that any person entering the Cuban
lines to offer it or any other terms ex-
cept independence would be shot.
Ruiz approached a Cuban colonel, with
whom he was on terms OF friendship,
but that did not protect him and he
was executed. There are two views of
this act. 1t was a savage order, in
deed, but the Spaniards knew the pen
atty and ought not to have courted it
The Cubans had formally rejected the
offer and took severe measures to pre-
vent their enemies from tampering
with any of their subordinate COM
manders.
