But az for me my quest shall be
The dearer gold that CLEANS

The brow Of her whose smiles
Would melt the drifts Of blizzard Sits
Through Chilkoot's dreary miles.
When pain or perils nigh.
Who braves the cold for Klondike gold
Dares vastly less than l.
For though her smile be melting sweet
Her frown is colder far
Than blasts that sweep from mountain

ADDITIONAL COUNTY NEWS.
HUMBOLDT.
A. W. CuNNrseHAM. Reporter,

The fine weather after 80 many
days of storm brought out n fairly
good crowd to hear Senator Farrelly
of Chanute Saturday evening. Con-
gresham Peters failed To- arrive, and
Senator Farrelly had TO spread out
y naturally thin speech IN order to
take up the time. He denied that
the Populist congressman of Kansas
had voted against the war measures.
They bad only voted against the
method of raising funds. Uncle Sam
ought to borrow money without pay
ing interest. The Republicans were
making q flag campaign out Of this
anyway. The Senator handled the
State administration with gloves
Leedy hadn't done anything that he
was ashamed of. Boyle was COM
pared with ali officer who had been
asked, for consideration, to endorse
SONS bonds, and had done 50 by
endorsing them Ms mo good" He
didn't apply the story, but then he
didn't say anything of the non-en-
forcement Of the stock yards law
either. The legislature was praised
up and the bills it had passed enum-
Grated, among them the banking law
Of 1891, passed by Repu blican leg
islature. AS q whole the speech was
pretty fair. considering the tact that
1t is pretty hard for Pop to make
speech anyway this year.

WARSHIPS FOR HAVANA.
one or Two Vessels May Be sent 10 AnchOr
in the Harbor During the Transi-
tion Period.

Washington, Oct. 26,-The navy will
not be called upon to take any part in
sending the army of occupation into
Cuba, which movement will begin in
the early part of November. The navy
has gone out of the business of trans
porting troops, United States ships,
however, will before long be seen in
the harbor of Havana. 1t is thought
very desirable that United States
warship or two shall be in Havana har-
Dor during the time when Cuba is in a
state of transition. The navy will not be
called upon to do any of the work Of
administering affairs in Cuba, for that
is naturally the province of the army,
but it is believed to be wise thing to
place both military and naval re-
sources in plain sight of Havana and
other Spanish towns for some time to
come. The president and the members
of his cabinet decided yesterday that
the United States would take formal
control of the affairs in Cuba on jan
uary /, 1899, and thus begin the new
wear by giving Cuba the benefits that
go with the American flag.

AS result of consultations between

rotary of state was directed to send a
note to the French embassy, explain
ing that this government could not
permit the sale of cannon or the re-
moval of guns from the Notifications
of Cuba, as reported by the American
commissioners, and that such proceed
ings must be stopped at once.

lessons We have learned. A late report
to the state department from Consul
General Dubois, OF St. Gall, Switzer-
land, shows US that the great republic
of the west is spreading her influence
abroad in ways of which we have lit
tie dreamed. Mr.. Dubois says:
Heretofore we have been looked up
on as . nation whose chief aim was
making money, but now we are recog-
nized as q potent element in the high
err civilization. The press here con-
tains frequent and intelligent articles
concerning our public school system,
our colleges and our universities, our
hospitals, our asylums for the insane,
the deaf and dunn b, and for those Deepen
dent upon public and private charity
for support. To these Institutions IL
given the highest praise. Recently
much has been written about our public
libraries. In late number of
the Lausanne Bibliotheque Univer-
selle ct Revue Suisse" an article was
published. by Albert Schinz on libraries
in TIE United States. He described 10
an interesting manner the very as
tonishing increase of public libraries
in our country, and says that not only
does the United States publicly and
privately contribute five times as much
annually for public library purposes as
any other nation in the world, but it
spends nearly as much annually for
educational purposes as do England,
France and Germany combined.
