origen no garantiza transmite la siguiente i'm
preston de las re.e'mas:
SAfirmo a2te1oricamente que las refor-
mas no han pOducido ningan etecto en- el
campo enemigo.
Los optiuismos transmitidos & la PENN
sula nacen al calor de buenos deseos y de
sentiments muy patriotioos; pero son contra
rios q la realidad.
Solo ana autonorpta radical pudiera pro-
ducir exosiones en- el campo insurrecto. Las
bases de reformas que ha publicado Ia GacetG
de Madrid son rechazadas unanimemente, por-
que Sc conservan en- elias algunos resortes de
gobierno que tienden q defender laautoridad
de Espaffa.
Las gestiones intentadas por ell aloalde de
Sancti-S Spfritns, Marcos Garcia, fracasaron des-
de ell primer momento.

firmadas, no solo por Maximo Gomez, sino
tambi6n por los miembros del titulado Gobierno
insurrecto Y por varios de los principales ca
becillas.
En- estas declaraciones Sc rechaza de una
manera absolute toda seduction que Sc base en-
ell otorgamiento de las reformas.o
Publican los periodicos una declara-
ci6n ofciosa de Mackinley, en- Ia cual dice subs
tancialmente que al tomar possession del cargo

SOFIA BRUSJ

Isl parece que ell vertigo la gufa!
Paso, paso q la rauda bicicleta,s
Mientras brotan del arpa del poeta
Los ritmos dedicados Sofia:
Su habilidad, su ingenio, su maestrfa,
A probarnos la ninfa Sc concreta,
De manera tan culta y tan discreta,
Que en- ei Sport, jamas Sc conocfa:
Ell publico la admira entusiasmado
Dirijir ell vehfculo con tino,
7 Ia tributa aplauso prolongado -.
Ella, con ese rostro tan divine
Que parece por Fidias modelado,
Avanza sonriente en- su camino.

OFFICIAL NEGLIGENCE.

circular letter to Thomas jeff
reys from the state school superin.
tendent's Office shows how some of
the new state officers are roaring over
retrenchment-the platform upon
which they were elected. The state
superintendent writes to County Su-
perintendent Jeffreys that inasmuch
rs the legislature made no appropria-
tion to his office for the printing Of
questions for the examination Of
teachers, he will not prepare the
questions during his term, and send
to the counties rs usual but each
county superintendent must get up n
list of questions for his own exam-
nations. The lack of appropriation
may make it necessary for each
county superintendent to get the
questions printed, but we cannot see
how it ahrogates the duty of Mr.
Louis N. b. Anderson to prepare
them or have them prepared and sent
out from his office The law makes
it his business to do this, and how is
he going to avoid it? Our present
school law aims to have uniform
set of questions for all teachers ex-
aminations in the state, so as to raise
the standard of teachers, and for this
reason Mr. Anderson's office is made
the source. If Mr.. Louis Nota Bcne
refuses to do his duty, and leaves
each county to rustic its own ques-
tions, there will be no uniformity and
the law is overthrow. He might
not have them printed, but there is
plenty of time and lie has clerk
who could type write twenty one
copies of each set of questions and
send to the counties, from which the
local superintendent could have
sufficient number printed to fill re-
quirements. Lack of printing appro-
priation did not relieve him of this
part of his duties Is all this cry
for retrenchment all hollow sound.
that the first reform set of officers
are going tc refuse to attend to their
business the first time they get few
dollars less than the officials they
have wildly been decrying as having
too many perquisites Strange how
mems heads swell rs soon as they
get into office
