BoIEs ON FINANCE.
Iowa's Ex-Governor Makes a Speech
at Fairfield.

At r0lruel0.
Fairfield, Ia, Feb. 9.-Ex-Gov. Horace
Boies made an address on the financial
question here Tuesday night. It was
his first utterance on the subject since
the publication of the widely quoted
letters In which he denied the sacred
and irrevocable nature of party plat
forms and insisted that the battle for
free coinage of silver at the ratio Of six
teen to one having been fought under
the most favorable circumstances and
the demand defeated at the polls the
democratic party should abandon the
financial plank Of 1896 and endeavor to
rally ON new ground. His speech Tues
day night embodied plan for re-
deemable government currency, upon
which he thinks all democrats should
be able to agree.

THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

We are now at actual war. When
we come to look reasonably on the
subject it seems but short time
since there was peace. Considering
ell the disadvantages that confronted
this country when war was declared,
and the unfortunate time Of year, it is
rather remarkable to be fighting the
battle of Santiago by the 1st of July.
In two months an army has been re-
cruited, ready to enforce the regulars
now at work, and munitions necessary
to carry on a great war have been ac-
quired. The plans have changed rap
idly, illustrating the condition famil-
lar to military men that a plan can
not be rightly adhered to. War is a
matter Of quickly changing circum-
stances, and the campaign thinkers
must be mentally alert Originally
Havana was to be the first point Of
hostile contact. Communication was
to be established with the insurgents
at some point not far from Havana,
and they were to do the main part Of
the land fighting during the summer
If the assistance of the United States
army was needed 1t was not regarded
as prudent to venture on the island
with a considerable number Of SOL
diers before September. The more
conservative citizens did not expect
a vigorous prosecution of the war be-
fore autumn. Now the regular army
of the United States has been landed
on the south side of Cuba and has
gone to fighting at Santiago, and vol
unteer reinforcements are on the way.
Havana is peacefully blockaded, and
may not receive a scratch during the
whole war. The next movement is to
be against the coast of Spain. 1t was
at first believed that another substan-
tial victory, following that achieved
by Admiral Dewey at Manila, would
lead the nations of Europe to inter-
fere and counsel Spain to quit, saving
anything from the wreck she could
through diplomacy and humiliation.
Such interference is not now expect
ed. Spain is disposed to fight on.
The contract to whip her is somewhat
larger than it appeared to be at an
earlier date, but it will be fulfilled.
The longer she holds out, the worse
of she will be in the epd.-Enquirer

The third monthly meeting OF the
Village Improvement Association met
at the Marietta Club Rooms. Subject,
Care of Cemeteries" appealed to the
heart Of every one present. The dis
cussion was brisk and animated. The
unanimous decision arrived at was
that the neglect of the old Mound
Cemetery was due to the carlessness
of our citizens and the ladies of the
Association intend to work in quiet
way with a view to effecting reform
in this matter The process may be
slow, but it Is sure.
Is there anyone in the employ of the
city of Marietta who is responsible for
the behavior Of prisoners while in GUS
tody?
| A few nights ago many persons in
the neighborhood Of the city prison
were deprived of nights rest by the
horrid yells and oaths of prisoners.
| Who is to blame?
We notice with pleasure the flower
beds which have been planted in
manypublic places, but we are tolt
that it is very hard to keep them il
order, owing to the destructive habits
of the children of our city. Mora
suasion is no doubt effective in some
cases, but the remedy prescribed b!
Solomon is too much neglected by thu
parents of the present day AS we no
tice the disrespect shown to age b.
the boys and girls on our streets, tn
cruelty to animals, and the disobedi
} ence to parents, it seems that ther
must be something wrong in the sys
tenn Of modern education and that tn
children of the present day are not a
well behaved as in the past gener
ations, when kindergartens an
