+ JOHN SHERMAN thinks it unbe-
coming for a Senator or Congress-
man to go spying about Cuba to try
and find ont the true situation OF
affairs in that country in regard to
the war, and wiz not visit Cuba.
OF course, it is, John, and it is dan
gerous, too. You and Cleveland and
Olney can make more money by
staying home and allowing the
massacres of Cubans to take place
as they have for months past There
is nothing unbecoming about a ma
ton like the United States standing
idly by and allowing the people of
a little island, who are fighting for
independence, to be butchered, their
homes destroyed and the mothers,
wifes aud daughters of the patriots
ravished, slain and thrown i'll a
heap to be burned by the Spaniards.
It is the proper thing for this gov
eminent to keep all it's actions, if
any are taken, close to itself, and if
Congress wants to know how about
it, and proposes to stop such butch
cries it must rely on information
from such men as Cleveland and
Olney for information and how to
act. Great is Grover the fat, the pig

NEVADA.

SENATOR CALL, of Florida, de.
Jared on the floor Of the Senate that
a nation which failed to protect its
citizens justly deserved the execra-
ton Of the civilized world.
This remark was made in con-
nection with the reading of a letter
charging that American citizens
had been butchered, without a hear
ing and without opportunity to
communicate with the representa-
tives Of their Government, by the
Spanish authorities in Cuba.
There is no jingoism or false
pride in the Senator's observation.
The essence of good government is
the protection Of the citizen from
injustice abroad as well as at home.
If the flag of his country is not a
shield to guard the rights of a citi-
zen in every part of the world, it is
a thing to be spit upon. If there
is any point of honor beyond the
pale Of arbitration it is the obligat
tion of government to enforce the
rights of its citizens. The whole
honor and value of the flag is bound
up in this. Even commerce de-
ponds upon it.
Are the charges true? That is
the only question to be determined,
and the question that the Govern.
ment is bound to determine as
promptly as possible. We may not
be the keepers of the rights of the
Cubans, but we are the keepers OF
the rights and the lives of American
citizens in Cuba.
If Spain is trampling on the flag
and numbering or maltreating
American citizens, she, and the
world through her, must be taught
lesson, regardless Of consequences.

THE funding bill was beaten in
Congress this week by a decisive
vote. Nobody now seems to know
exactly what will be done in regard
to the Central Pacific road. It is
hardly probable that the govern
ment will take the road and operate
it. Any way the matter is fixed the
government will be the loser. If
the government forecloses it will
first have to satisfy the first mort
gage bonds of about $70,000,000;
then it is doubtful if the road will
bring at sale more than $4,000, 600
or $4,000, 900, and it would prob
ably be bought back by the same
owners, but there is possibility
that some of the eastern companies
might bid for it. However, the
price would not reach a sufficient
figure to make the government
whole on the deal, while it would
be cheap way for the company to
square up. In the meantime it
might not be out of the way to re-
mark again that the only way to
get cheaper freight and passenger
rates for this State will be to have
direct competing line of road
across it, and that will never come
until our mining districts are again
opened up.
