Fire and Water.

Water will extinguish fire because
the water forms coating over the fuel,
which keeps it from the air, and the
conversion of water into steam draws
off the heat from the burning fuel. A
little water makes fire fie1cer. while
large quantity of water puts it out.
The explanation is that water is com
posed of oxygen and hydrogen. When
therefore the fire can decompose the
water into its simple elements, it serves
as fuel TO the flame.

4 Unique Sign.

A sign which was productive of much
discussion was read by the patrons of a
small laundry establishment In Mas
sachusetts town.
1t was printed in large letters on a
piece of brown paper and pinned to the
door of the shop. 1t ran thus:
"Closed on account of sickness till
next Monday, or possibly Wednesday. 1
am not expected to live. Shall be un-
able to deliver goods for at least a
week in any case.

Fact vs.. Theory.

The old and oft repeated assertion of
tariff reformers, that a protective tariff
has resulted in barring the products of
the United States from foreign markets.
has received Il Knockout blow in the
increase of exports from this country, in
manufactured goods as well as farm
products. and has set the free traders to
thinking. something they do not always
do.
The ground the assertion. that a
protective tariff always closes foreign
markets to our products is based upon.
is that the cost of raw materials is in.
creased, rendering it impossible fol
American manufacturers to sell then
products abroad in competition with
goods of foreign manufacture. Yet the
free traders find that cargoes of Ameri-
can manufactured goods valued at hall
u million dollars were recently shipped
er cargocs valued at equally as much
were sent to Australia and British
South Africa, while still other cargoes
| were consigned to Hull. Liverpool.
| Manchester, Bremen. Bristol. Glasgow
Hamburg, Havre. LONDON. Marseilles
and Rotterdam. The goods sent to Eng
land, France and Germany will be solo
in direct competition with goods mann
featured in those countries.
OF course, the shipment of manufac
tured goods to foreign countries knocks
the free trade theory endwise, for ac
cording to that theory such IA thing il
impossible. The free-traderS are now
willing to admit the truth, for they can.
not very well deny facts. yet they say
orr position would be ever so much bet
ter if we admitted all raw materials free.
for that would reduce the cOsto of produc.
ing still lower. For Il fact. however
free raw materials" is a fallaciouS cry
1t has been demonstrated that. notwith
standing the higher wages paid tt
American labor. it is the cheapest in tho
world, because it is so much more pro
ductivc than that of any other country
The skill of American mechanics, com
bined with American inventive genius
makes it possible for American manu-
facturers to supply the home market al
prices practically as low as can be made
on the products of foreign factories, anc
also to invade the markets of othel
countries in competition with foreign
labor. This will continue to be thu
ease as long as the protective system il
maintained to save Il home marke'
from foreign invasion. Moreover, there
is no such thing as raw material.
1t is difficult for the free-traders tt
get any comfort ont of existing condi
tions. Protection has been re-estab'
lished, and it will stand for years tc
come.

other hand grim war, barbarous tactics.
poverty and starvation are devastating
the land. Spain has failed to subdue
the insurgents after many months of a
cruelty waged warfare and in the inter-
ests of humanity and civilization the
United States should bring the war to II
close. Interference by this government
would undoubtedly result in a declara-
ton of war by the Spanish government,
but the present financial condition OF
Spain would render that declaration al
most null and void. 1t is to be hoped
that the administration will O % realize
its duty and take some step that will re-
suit in the restoration of peace in Cuba.

Will Take No Backward Step.

President Mckinley contemplatcs re-
storing some of the places now in the
classified list. under the civil service
law. to that branch of service not elias
siiied, so say reports sent out from
Washington. This would Indicate that
the voice of public sentiment has reached
the presidents ear, and the peoples
wishes in the matter will be regarded to
some considerable degree.
Of course this announcement called
forth a loud protest from the Demo-
cratic, mugwump and old maid papers
in the land. and in piteons tones they
beg President Mckinley to take no
backward step" IT the president has
determined to undo some of the so-callcd
reform works of his predecessor. he will
not take any backward step. The
s'merit system" has been the pet idea
of many would-be reformers for "a num-
Der of years. and they have larped upon
that string so everlastingly and contin-
llally that they have come to believe
that to appoint a man to Office because
he is either a Republican or Democrat,
is a cardinal sin, no matter how well
he may be qualified. According to the
theory of these reformers. the only
proper way for an applicant to enter
public service is to answer a list Of i'm
practical questions longer than the
moral law. and having once demon
strated his fitness Tor unftness) he
should be allowed to remain until old
age renders him unfit for further serv-
ice-and then. If the Office holding class
can bring it about. he Is to be retired
on a pension. Perhaps the theory OF
an examination for positions is not al
together wrong, and if every person
now in the public service under
civil service rules had taken an eX-
animation no great injustice could be
complained of. But such is not the
case. Under President Cleveland's sec
ond term, every Republican who held
u position under the government was
removed as cxpeditiously as possible,
and the vacancy thus caused filed with
Il staunch Democrat. Then. when all
such places were parccled out to the
deserving workers, the classified list
was extended to cover them. No ex-
aminations were held, no questions
were asked. They were given life posi-
tions simply because they were Demo-
Gratis, when the fact Of the matter
Ii, had examinations been held as
contemplated by the law. many now
easy jobs would be cutting cord
wood or driving drays.

Me C0chiti District.

The Cochiti mining district, in the
northern part of New Mexico, has been
more on less under Il cloud because OF
its slow development, Notwithstanding
the favorable reports that were pub
lished in regard to it ii few years ago.
The general public does not look far in
search of II cause for a seeming failure
of this kind. 1t probably has been
unknown to many persons that a dis
pute about the validity OF a land grant.
which was said to cover the mineral
ground. delayed operations.
The dispute having been settled
against the grant claimant. nothing
| stands in the way of development OF the
district, and there are indications that
henccforth its progress will be rapid.
The fact that IL large Boston company
has become interested in a group OF Co
chit mines makes it probable that dur
ing the course of the present year Il big
amount of work will be done. This
| should show clearly whether the district
is really very valuable and extensive.
In Cochiti the veins are wide, contain
ing large bodies of ore. The ore carries
both gold and silver. and it has been
said in this connection that miners visit
ing the camp have been struck by its
resemblance to the Comstock lode. II
may fall very far short of being IA second
Comstock. and it will probably disap
point all who entertain a hope that il
will rival in richness the famous Nevada
camp. But it may. nevertheless, prove
a heavy producer of both silverand gold,
The climate is favorable for continuous
work, being mild compared with that o.
most mining camps that have attained
to any considerable development in this
country. This would be an attraction
to persons who wish to avoid the rig0rot
life in northern ATTITUDES ut Il great ele'
walton above the sea. In fact, Cochit
ought to make almost an ideal mining
camp if it proves to be both rich and ex,

Cuban Conditions.

congressman klnS. OF Juan. VINO re-
Gently visited Cuba for the purpose of
investigating the existing conditions on
that island, brought back a very dark
and discouraging report. MIR. King
says that the elements on the island are
so discordant that it is impossible to an
ticipate peace without the intervention
of the United States. Then, to sub
stantiate his statement, he enters into
details of an interesting nature. In this
regard he says:
.'The conservatives, or Spaniards. are
| opposed to autonomy. and while a por-
tion of the party advocates organized OPP
position to its enforcement. others think
that a passive policy should be adopted.
All of these Spaniards are opposed to
the independence of the island because.
in their belief, the Cnbans are incapable
of self-government.
These Spaniards prefer annexation
to the United States to the independence
of the island. The great mass of Gu
bans opposed to autonomy believe that
it is not genuine, and that it involves | n
in every essential respect the subordin-
ate power of Spain. They think that it
is not home rule, and that it was offered
| in order to delude the insurgents into
the abandonment of the al and the ac-
ceptance of peace. They further claim
that it was offered to placatc the United
| States and prevent Immediate interven-
| tion on the part of this government.
,,NJl,, nt,t,n1n ~ ~
and state that they will not consider any
proposition from Spain except it be
based upon the absolute independence
Of the. island.
Autonomy was unable to suppress
| the little riot in Havana, or to collect a
peseta for government expenses. or to
control a municipality or direct a prov
ince. Ostensibly the people are governed
by civil authority. but in reality it is by
military authority. SPANS authority in
| Cuba is restricted to the fortified cities
| and towns, and to small areas around
which forts have been built. The east
ern provinces are completely dominated
by the insurgents. who roam unchecked
in the western provinces. Spain has
pacification only where she has troops"
Mr.. King visited four provinces, and
is in a position to tell the truth concern
ing the island. He also states that the
reports of Weylcr's inhuman treatment
of the Cubans are true. Weyler drove
600. 900 Cubans into the fortified cities
and towns and left them helpless and
impoverished to die of starvation. They
we're not permitted to return for any
purpose. and If found outside OF the
Spanish lines were treated as public enc
mics. Accordingly they have died by
thousands and tens OF thousands, and
they are still dying from want and cy-
posure.
1t will be learned from Mr.. Kings
statements. based upon personal obscr-
walton. that the Spanish claim that war
does not exist on the island: that the
greater number Of provinces are paci-
fed, and that autonomy Is in full force

President Mckinley, in restoring the

chise. Should congress repeal the law
entirely, the country at large will be
