No Reciprocity with Tariff.
From the st. Louis Post-Dispatch Dem

trouble with reciprocity. Reciprocity is
in conflict with the high tariff idea. Real
reciprocity is free trade, and is as dam

bounty. II the tariff theory is of any

The Reformed church of Highland Park,
N. j., evidently believes that
physical strength and health
are the next thing to spiritual
grace. The second floor of the church is
fitted up as a gymnasium with punch bag.
Indian clubs and dumb-bells, and now the
pastor, Rev. Alexander S. Van Dyck. is
preparing to add base ball nine to the
bicycle club, which the members have al
ready formed. II am convinced" the
pastor says in speaking of the matter,
that spiritual degeneracy is akin to ply
steal degeneracy, and in my case restora-
ton of physical power gave me spiritual
aid" The pastor is going to put up a BIZ
cycle rack and invite all of the members
and his friends to ride out to church.
There is no doubt that good bodily health
is conducible TO a better religion and mo-
rality. where the cultivation of it can be
confined within the proper bounds. Rev
Mr.. Van Dyck's new move, however, will
no doubt furnish a new theme for a dis
course from Charlotte Smith.

The dispatches indicate that affairs have
been moving briskly in Cuba during the
past few days. Both the Spahiards and
the insurgents have displayed unusual ac-
tivity. AS far as results go, it seems that
the insurgents have more to show. Ban
dera has demonstrated once more that
the much vaunted trocha between Juca-
70 and Moron offers no real obstacle to
the Cubans when they wish to cross it,
Maceo used TO cross it at pleasure; so did
Rivera, and the lesser lights of the in
surgent commanders do not seem to find it
any more annoying than did their gener-
ais. The insurgents have burned Bahia
Honda, which lies in the "pacihed" prov
ince of Pinar del Rio Ducasse, who sue
ceeded Rivera in command of Maceo's
troops, captured the town and applied the
torch to 1t. Bejucal has been attackeN
during the past few days for the fifth
time. AT the latest assault the insurg-
ents captured provisions and medicines
which they will find good use for The
port of Banes has been seized by the in
surgents and fortified by them in antici-
patton of attack by the Spaniards.
1t is asserted positively, and with de-
tails which seem conclusive, that the lat
est expedition on the Laurada was safely
landed, and that the arms, ammunition,
medicines and stores carried on that YES
sci We're taken into the interior by Ca
lixto Garcia. This is undoubtedly the in
surgents' best stroke for some time, since
it will give them arms and cartridges for
men who have heretofore had only cane
knives to fight with. Maceo said, and
Gomez has affirmed, that the insurgents
do not need men. They have already
more men than they have guns for. Co
mez wrote only a few weeks ago that if
he had a certain additional number of guns
mot mem he could sweep the Spaniards
off the island" The Laurada expedition
gave him 2,4OO of them, and 100000 cart
ridges. Since the sinking of the Spanish
gunboat on the Rio Cauto by insurgents,
the Cubans at the eastern end of the is
land have become strong and bold. The
battle near Guamo, reported in Thurs
days dispatches, In which the Spaniards,
under Gen. Rey lost Al men, and were
compelled to retreat, was near the scene
of the Cauto affair.
On the other hand, the Spaniards seem
to have cut to pieces numerous small
insurgent bands. Both sides are evident
ly putting in the best ticks possible before
the rainy season comes on. In the mean
time, the rumored negotiations for peace
seem to have dropped out of sight

With the approaching completion Of the
battleship Iowa. and several of the small
gunboats, Secretary Long of the navy finds
that the service is short on men, and he is
about to put out of commission two of the
cruisers for the purpose of using their
men to make up the crews on the newly
acquired vessels. The cruisers TO be laid
up are the Columbia and the Minneapolis.
What is the matter with finding new men
to man the new ships? 1t would seem to
be rather a bad policy at the present time
to take out of commission several of the
best vessels of the navy. And incidentally,
while Secretary Long is looking around
for men to man new American ships he
should make an effort TO get American
crews. Heretofore there have been too
many foreigners admitted to the service.
There seems to be no good reason why the
government should not secure young
Americans to enter the service. 1t would
be a great feather in the navy's cap, if
the Iowa, the queen of modern battleships.
could have an entirely American crew.
