The meaning of harmony seems
to be misunderstood by some re-
publicans. They seemingly think
that it consists i'll talking compro-
mise and acting intolerantly. Their
professions are not made good III
their actions. Dogmatic and un-
bending, they would force men to
their ideas of matter and means;
and this~is harmony. There are
those who Indignantly resist such
coercion; and tins is discord.

County Finances.

Treasurer Buchanan has issued
another call which will reduce the
county debt over 200, and re
deem 70 warrants. There is over
$1,000 more on hand, but Mr.
Buchanan has been requested by
the Pauley Jail Go. to pay part of
their warrants, so he will pay two
of the Jail orders. OF course he
could not we'll advance their war
rants over those prior issued, were
the county paper at discount,
but since it is at premium hold
ers prefer that the calls do not IN
cluIe their warrants.
The Jail warrants which amount
to $2.94O were issued i'll Novem-
ber, 1894, ;.nd Mr.. Buchanan states
that tie interest up to yesterday,
On them, amounted to $756.57. 1t
is the interest that has made taxes
so high, rathe than the expenses OF
the county. When these Jail Or
ders are paid there will be but one
warrant of any considerable
amount still out, that for bridge
work in Alsea, amounting to about
$500. =,
The treasurer says he thinks
that nearly all the taxes this yea'
| will be paid in money, since war
rants are worth more than thell
face and interest, and that nearly
all the old debt will be wiped oHt

The lines in the hand upon which the

and the fate OF the person seeking in-

prominence OF the lines In the hand does
not always count for good or evil. The
direction in which they stray away from

importance; for instance, should n Of

COURTING THEIR FOES.

No one who fairly considers the matter
can object to the reports that the Cubans
who were insurgents and those who are
called spaniards are getting together in
Cuba in favor of Independent government.
In fact. that is what the President and the
Republican Congress are on record in favor
Of We do not want Cuba if the people of
the island will unite to establish stable
government which will insure tranquility
to that harassed island. Further than that,
if this government can do anything to Sc
cure union of the people of Cuba there is
every reason to believe that it will be done.
But having been at such great expense to
expel Spain from Cuba, the United States is
justified in insisting that it has a right to
see that Cuba does not continue the arena
of instruction and misrule. Having under
taken the war in behalf of humanity, are
in duty bound to see that Cuba shall have a
those who are called Spaniards can agree to
stop the guerrilla warfare which they have
been so long practicing upon each other
and can give up throat-cutting for brotherly
accord, all the better for the United States.
The people of this country will hail such an
exhibition with delight as an indication of
the millennium twilight.
1t may be said that if Gomez and his as
sociates are correctly reported as to their
attitude toward the United States, they are
very ungrateful. They could not have driven
the Spaniards out of Cuba in fifty years.
They know it, and knowing it they should
exhibit little gratitude instead of appeal
ing to Spaniards to join them in preventing
annexation to the United States, to the end
that the trade OF Cuba may be saved to
Spain. Thus these insurgent leaders, if cor
rectly reported, turn about to help the
country which they have been denouncing
as their oppressor and robber.
The presence of Mr.. Porter, who is sup
posed to be in Cuba to inquire into tariff
regulations and other taxes with a view to
modification, is resented by the insurgents
as If they desire to continue under system
of tariffs which prohibits the Importation of
our products on equal terms. The Cubars,
insurgents and Spaniards may as well
make up their minds, first as last that the
tariffs of Cuba will be adjusted upon a basis
which will give the products Of the United
States an equal chance. if not an advantage,
in the markets of the island.
