While the fall of Santiago denotes

While the fall of Santiago denotes
the beginning of the end of one task
in Cuba, it does not mark the finish
of all that falls to the lot of the
UnitedStates there. When the Span
ish government has been removed
from the island, another government
must be set up, and it is not only a
duty the United States owes to Cuba
to see that good government is es-
tablished, but our own welfare re-
Quires sue step. The Cuban is nu-
trained in the art of self-government.
At the same time he is bitter against
the rulers who have held authority,
He would be justly suspicious of ad-
ministration of affairs by the United
States unless it should permit him
ample latitude in making and enforc-
ing the laws. Therefore, another re-
sponsibility falls upon the victors of
Santiago.
Cuba must be provided with stable
government, and with one that will
avoid the annoyances that the rule of
Spain gave rise to. Cuba must be
made a country in which life and
property are safe. Cuba must cease
to be a menace in any manner to the
United States. A high order of intel
ligence in the administration of af-
fairs on the island is desirable, but
those who will now come into author
ity in the natural order of affairs are
men who have not had the slightest
opportunity to fit themselves for the
duties that will be required. In time
Cuba can be trained to govern herself.
But for awhile the United States may
expect to have on its hands a ward
which, while not anxious to be hedged
about with many restrictions, will
have to be held in with firm rein or
make trouble for both Cuba ano this
country.

The Issue rs Before Us.

The issue between the Republican
and the Democrats in the present
campaign is just as clearly defined as
it was two years, Notwithstanding
the efforts on the part Of the former
to conceal it. Chairman Treat, o.

The following circular letter:
tsThe issue for the present cam
Daign IN the state of Wisconsin IS now
clearly set forth. The Democratic
state convention endorsed the Chi

platform upon which their ticket
went down to defeat in Wisconsin
6wo years ago 1t is the same free
silver reputation principle for which
the silver Democrats stood / n 1896,
and no amount OF talk or sOphlstry
can obscure it.

Upon state issues the Republicans of
Wisconsin can meet them eagerly and
gladly with a record which will put
them to shame; but the Repu blicans
mnst not forget for onemoment that
the purpose of the Democrats IN talk
ing of state issues at this tire is to
obscure the real issue, which is the
financial one.
"Do not let this be forgotten for a
moment, that the free silver men are
IN contorl OF the Democratic party in
this state. Wehave ten congressman
to elect in Wisconsin this fall, and it
would be a calamity for Wisconsin to
send a single silver Democrat to
Washington. Hereis the silver plank
in the Chicago platform which the
Democrats of Wisconsin endorse:
w demand the free and unlimited
coinage of both silver and gold at the
present legal ratio of Is to l. In
contradistinction OF this, read the
following money plank, adopted by
the Republicans at their stateconven-
ton In Milwaukee on August II:
"We believe that the declaration in
the St. Louis national Republican
platform for the maintenance of the
gold standard and the parity Of our
forms of money should be enacted
into law, and themoney of the Ameri-
can people should be made and kept,
like all it's institutions, the best In the
world"
"The friends ofsound money desire
no clearer issue than this. Remem-
Der that not only have we to Ell ct
ten congressman, but Il senator will
be elected by the coming legislature.
Altogether the most important issue
that this country or state has had
to deal with, is the question of hon
est money, and a state that has sc
nobly for years stood for sound
money cannot afford for one O.
ment to permit the real issue to be
obscured or the friends of cheap
money and reputation to gain any
advantage.
1--WE shall have with US in this con.
test, as we had two years ago, all the
sound money Democrats, of whom
thirty-fve.thousand voted the Repub-
licau ticket in 1896. Ii the issue is
properly kept before the people, the
Republican ticketPthis fall, congress-
ional, state and legislative, will have
an overwhelming majority"

Dives From a Tower.

The st. Louis Post-Dispatch of May
rs, 1898, gives the following account
of K. ?. Speedy's dive from a high
bridge. Mr.. Speedy will be at the
county fair and make two dives each
day on Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day from an SO-foot tower:
Kearney P. Speedy, who claims to
be, and doubtless is, the champion high
diver of the world, dived from the sec
ond span of Merchants bridge shortly
after 9 o'clock Wednesday morning.
The distance was 128 feet and was
made without mishap.
There were present on the shore to
see Speedy's leap, Mrs. Speedy, F. B.
Manning, his manager; Capt, manager
of the new Klondike garden; Dr.. Chas.
E~ckstromer, and the newspaper men
invited to witness the dive.
The Mississippi was muddier than
usual. For this reason the dive was
made from the middle of and not the
top of the arch, as it would have been
impossible to see the driftwood from
the top, and that was one thing the
diver feared.
Mrs. Speedy showed no sign of being
afraid of the result. She said she had
seen her husband dive too many times
to be frightened at d ''little dive like
this"
At 9:10 o'clock Speedy, who was
dressed in a bicycle suit, went down to
the river shore and climbed up the
iron trestle work, a distance of 60 feet,
to the track bed of the bridge. Moving
along beneath the platform at one side
OF the track he kept behind the pillars
and uprights until he reached the
center of the second span. There he
climbed up the center post, after re-
moving his coat, shoes and hat.
Walking out on the slender thread Of
steel he stood for a minute with his
arms outstretched. Slowly he fell
forward until his body was almost hori-
zontal and then shot downward.
Twenty feet above the water he be-
gan to wave his right arm like a wing.
At 9:12 o'clock he struck the water
with a splash that sent the muddy foam
upwards in a spray, and a second later
his head showed above the water.
A boat vas waiting, he climbed
aboard and was soon on shore. He
experienced no trouble in making the
dive, he said, as soon as he reached
land, except that he had to change his
course for a piece of driftwood, which
he narrowly missed.

his musket was aimed to kill a Union pick
ct the latter, suddenly inspired with a
sense of his own defence1ess condition,
began to sing those beautiful words: "Cov-

life was saved.
Death sometimes spares the one who
