POET OF THE WEST.

The theory that all high class poesy
must come from tho cultured east Is no
longer tonable. for way out in Iowa,
John Quincy Adams bursts upon be-
wiidered people and scatters broadcast
over the spreadig prairics glittering
gems OF the most brilliant hues.
True the name OF the new poet smacks
considerably Of birthplace down by the
sunrise where the eastern song OF the
sea begins its morning music with the
day and the deep diapason Of the At
lantic ceaselessly sounds about the rock
bound coast, but John halls from Iowa;
and be IT far from us 10 intimate that
his native genius IS not tho glorious re-
suit OF the harmonious blending Of the
soft-sighlng chinook winds and tho hum
Of industry from the thriving settlements
of the plains.
The rapid stride of civilization has
brought TO Iowa graveyards tenanted

antly laid down pat hand and reserved
their boots for the journey upon which
they started with little hoarsay knowl-
edge Of its destination.
The ladies Of Bethel Cemetery Asso-
citation" were about TO celebrate the first
anniversary Of their organization and
the contemplation Of this in Iowa fired
the poetic soul Of John Quincy Adams and
he gave TO the admiring ladies' lyric
gem of rare beauty
The following entitled "The Cemetery

1--WE cannot BE Indifferent" says the
Atlanta Constitution, "to the multiply
ing indications Of Great Britain's
friendship in the present crisis. With
only two or three exceptions the news
papers Of Great Britain which reflect the
character Of public sentiment in that
country. are solidly upon the side Of the
United States. With the progress Of the
war there IS every reason to believe that
Great Britains sympathy and interest
are increasing steadily, and that We pos
sess her good viii in the most cordial
sense of that term"
Yet IT is only a little while ago that
the Constitution and other papers Of its
kind were declaring that Great Britain
was our greatest enemy and that there
was no interest in common between that
country and the United States. That
Great Britain was a creditor nation and
the United States a debtor nation and
that a financial system that was best
suited TO Great Britain's interest was
ruinous 10 the interests OF the United
States. You remember tho argument.
1t was preached day in and day out I'M
ti the people knew 81 by heart.
England was represented as our enemy
because she favored the gold standard
and France was represented as our friend
because she was in favor OF international
bi-metallism.
What do the people now think OF that
sort or clap trap? France has been in
sympathy with Spain from the start and,
IN our opinion, nothing but the friend
ship OF Great Britain has kept France
from going 10 SPANS assistance. This
war IS teaching some valuable lessons.

The fact that the commander of the American squadron in Cuban waters is most ungenerous to his subordinates is to be greatly de- plored. Sampson took to himself all credit for the destruction of Cervera's fleet, when the whole world knows that but for the prompt action of Commodore Schley at least two of the Spanish vessels would have escaped. In his official report Sampson does not even men. tion the brave action of Lieutenant Wainwright, of the Gloucester, who with the little yacht and four pound gun engaged and sunk two of the enemy's torpedo boats In this report the name of Sc'lley has no part. Sampson at the time of Cervera's sortie was ten miles away and when the last vessel of the enemy's squadron was being beached in sinking condition the acting admiral arrived and fired a couple of shots at long range and then steamed in and demanded the surre' der of the sinking ship. Sampson's pretentions make him appear in ridiculous light before the public and his fame as a com. mander will appear only in his departmental reports.
