The Cause Of s1ain's Anger.

A correspondent of the New York Her
aid has found out that Spain is angry
with the United States, and why she is
angry. On Jan. he cabled this very i'm
portant news to the Herald, and that pa
per gave it to the public. The Information
was obtained from a young fellow in Nal
aga, the civil governor of that province.
If the Herald's correspondent is relia-
bic, and it is only reasonable to suppose
he is, Spain is angry with the United
States because the United States govern
to the Cubans, and doesn't put down the
Cuban junta which manages Cuban af-
fairs in New York and Washington.
Just why this information was cabled
from Malaga doesn't appear Probably
the young civil governor of Malaga de-
sired to see himself in print or was anx
ious to furnish news little more reliable
than the average Cuban news is, or per-
haps the Malaga correspondent of the
Herald aimed to score what newspaper
men call a beat"
AS to the Importance of the news there
may be a difference of opinion. Probably
the same sort of news could have been OBJ
tanned from the Spanish minister in
Washington, and it would have been more
satisfactory, since the Spanish minister
is closer to the Spanish government than
the civil governor Of Malaga However,
the Spanish minister would not have made
the mistake of supposing that this gov
eminent has authority to stop the ship
ment of properly cleared cargoes of arms
to Cubans or to run the Cuban junta out
of the country as long as it does not vio-
late any of our laws. Still there may
have been a purpose in getting an express
sion of opinion from the civil governor of
Malaga which will be disclosed later on.
Col. Perry Carson the colored politician
of the District of Columbia, will apply to
President Mckinley for an appointment
to some nice, easy foreign place, he does
not care particularly what place, so long
as it is in a climate that will relieve him
from the asthma, from which he is con-
stantly suffering. In other words, Col.
Perry Carson looks upon the republican
party as an almoner of government boun-
ty for the benefit of sick or needy repub-
/ licans. He evidently thinks tits the prop
err function of the government to take cog
NANCE of his asthma and to provide him
gratis with a remedy for it. Col. Perry
/ Carson evidently remembers how, during
! past republican administrations, favorites
/ have been sent away to foreign countries
/ for their health at government expense,
and hopes for return of those flush and
lush times for the republican politicians.

The Belgian chamber of the upper house
! of parliament has been provided with a
set of electric bells, with wires leading
to push buttons upon the presidents desk.
/ When the members become boisterous in
debate the president will ring little sill
yer bell, to call them to order. If they
continue their noise in disregard of the
warming, he will set the whole lot of
bells ringing, thus drowning out the voices
of the speakers. This excellent idea
should be adopted in the Senate of the
United States. A chime of bells might
be arranged, upon which the president of
the Senate could play airs appropriate to
the occasion while ringing down the de-
baters
