Mr. Allen referred to the great loss OF
lives and suffering in Cuba in the last
few years. He said It was the evidence
of incOmpetency on the part OF Spain
that she must leave the Western CONT
nent forever

Mr.. Allen declared that the rising gem

that kingdom and characterized il as

years.

The speaker declared that he had no

Senator Allen of Nebraska delivered a
lecture last night at the Peoples Church.
He was advertised to speak on Our
Children and the Worlds Unfortunates. :"
He began his remarks, however. by
stating that since he had consented to
speak on that subject, war had been de-
clared, and we had fought few battles
His head had been so full of this latter
question, of wars and rumors of wars,
and means to raise revenue to carry on

inhabitants. He gave a histery of the ten
years war and of the final compromise

the beginning of the present struggle and
traced the progress made by the army
of liberation to the present time.
Spain has sown the wind and under the
flag you are going to raise she will reap
the whirlwind. That flag is the emblem
of freedom; it sprang like a Minerva
from the brain of Jove. Its colors were
taken from the bow of promise and It
waves in the interest of advanced civiliza-
ton. 1t is the emblem of independence

A GALLANT SOLDIER.

A good many old soldiers now liv-
ing in and about lola have an affec-
tionate remembrance of Col. w. +.
Cloud and: will read with pleasure
the following from the pen of John
Gilmore in the Fredonia Citizen:
Senator Baker has introduced a bill in the
senate to pension Colonel William +. Cloud, Of
Wyan3otte. The proposed amount Of the same
per month is not stated in the dispatch. Col.
onel Cloud, for whom Cloud county was named,
is verging on 70 years, and is one of the few
surviving Kansas soldiers Of his rank. He
served in the Mexican War at IS We recall
with the vivid memory of boyhood his inspir,
ing appearance in his long raven locks and
bright sash, as marshal. on horseback, at the
Fourth OF July celebration in Emporia in 1850.
He had tailor shop In that town, and as the
fourth one of six brothers we also recall rat a
pair Of corduroy trousers he made was worn
in turn by each, as growth in stature made the
garment appear tolerable fit. Colonel Cloud
enlisted in May, 1861. raising a company OF
Lyon county young men under the first call
for troops. That was Company II, of the Sec.
ond Kansas infantry Cloud became major OF
the regiment; Colonel A. J. Mitchell. now liv-
lug Nv Onhuulet lueu DeChlne captain OF lne
company. and the first lieutenant was Charles
s. Hills, afterward lieutenant colonel of the
Tenth, and now residing If olive, in st. Louis
Company II, out of the thirty odd present In
the battle of Wilson creek, had fifteen killed
and wounded.
Why Cloud did not become a brigader gen
eral during the war, through which he served
to the close with distinguished success, was
mystery to many other Kansans of Jesse
ability as soldiers, energy as fighters and popu
larity as officers were so pro noted. Jim Ian,
probably saw fit not so to will in favor of thu
veteran of two wars"
But Colonel Cloud never became embittere,
nor sulked nor dill his fervor or activity as
soldier abate. There is not man in Kansa
to-day who feels deeper and more genuine de
votion to the country or intenser patriotism
We hope Senator Bakers bill will assure tn
white haired hero the ample benefit he de
serves.

Good Words About Our Cy.

The mid-winter edition of the Los
Angeles CALI Times, magnificent
example of newspaper skill and enter
prise, has portrait of Hon. G.. NJ.
Simpson and the following apprecia-
tive sketch:
One of the widely known members of the
Los Angeles county bar is Hon. c. M. Simpson
OF Pasadena, who has served two terms as State
Senator for the Thirty. sixth District and dur
ing the last season was chairman of the Judi
ciary Committee, the most important committee
Of the Legislature
Capt Simpson is native of Rockville, Ind,
where he was born in 1874, but In his boyhood
he migrated TO Kansas. At the outbreak of the
war of the rebellion he went into the service
OF the Union, at first as a scout and subsequent
ly as member OF the Ninth Kansas Volun-
teers. He served in the war for four years, and
then went on farm. Latter he engaged in
mercantile business, and from 1870 till 1876 he
was clerk of the District Court OF Allen coun-
ty, Kansas. He also was elected Mayor of the
city of lola, and for ten years served ss post
master.
| Senator Simpson was admitted to practice
law In 1877 and afterward he served two terms
as City Attorney His health again falling he
came to California in 1886 and located at Pasa-
dena, Los Angeles county, where he has since
been engaged in the practice Of his profession.
| In 1885 he was elected president of the Repub-
| lean Club of Pasadena. and in 1889 a member
of the city Council. In 1892 he was elected to
the Assembly from the Seventy eighth District
and in 1891 to the Senate. as has been stated.

a recent interview, he consented to be a candi

censured by the San Francisco Chronicle and
Sacramento Bee for his valiant opposition to {

PHILADELPHIA AGAIN.

Mr.. Earnest Jordan, of Carlyle, has
Il cousin who has been city engineer
of Philadelphia for eight years. Mr.,
Jordan visited him last summer and
he told him that as long as that city
operated its own gas plant the price
was high, the gas poor and the city
lost money. Finally the city leased
the plant to private corporation
which not only furnishes good gas at
the same price formerly charged by
the city, but pays the city an annual
rental of 81 100000 besides. This cor
roborates the article that appeared
