rurIArEsr ERoM KANSAS.

Tho latest socalistic freak I'm Kansas
is o. proposition TO enlarge the insurance
department OF the state by the addition
of n number Of officers who, I'm conjunc-
ton with the county assessors, shall com
pute and pay au the fire, accident and
windstorm losses in the State. The
money with which to pay these losses is
10 be raised by a special tax graduated
according to the risk run by the property
insured.
This course seems to be not so much
o. matter Of choice as of necessity, as un-
der the stringent laws OF Kansas. many Of
the insurance companies doing business
in the state have withdrawn ana an may
eventually De driven of.
But Kansas does not seem to be at all
concerned. The insurance commissioner
has reported that the old-line companies
have. i'm many instances. made a profit
of nearly one hundred per cent on tho
capital stock invested in Kansas, and the
supposltion IS that the State can do its
own insurng, save money to the people.
and make money for the Commonwealth.
Tho Boston Transcript says that the
idea is not a new one that at least twenty
years ago the plan was ca nestly favored
by tho late Rev. Or. a. a. Miner OF Bos-
ton but was never seriously considered
by the people OF Massachusetts.
The people Of Kansas however Will no
doubt wake up by and by TO a realiza-
tion OF the fact that while all these things
are very pretty in the theory. in practice
it has been ascertained that Il always
costs the government more to do a given
work that the same work would cost II
done by q private corporation, and the
reason is not hard to find IT Is simply
the difference between politics anu busi-
ness

Cuba Clarion Cry.

Arise. proud sons OF liberty!
The tocsin sound from sea 20 sea;
For freightcd breezes blow
From pilgrim graves on eastern strand
To fair Paclics sunny land
The cry OF Cubas woe.
The smoke OF homes in ashes laid,
The gloom Of souls and lives betrayed,
Have shrouded that fair sky:
With bleeding hearts ana anguished
tears.
They beg our heritage Of years
With long and bitter cry.
Shall we. In cold. unfeeling mood,
Denying human brotherhood.
Keep freedoms banner furled?
All, no. Fling out those folds or light,
Proclaim the victory OF right
And justice to the world
Then. loved and honored native land.
Firm as the rock-ribbed mountains stand
Shall rest our faith in thee;
And GLAD shan sound. from ages past,
AS years roll on while time shall last,
Thy fame from sea 20 sea-

BETTER TELL THE EXACT TRUTH

The Petersburg Iudex-Appeal says:
Tho truth about Mr.. Hanna, as learned
from intelligent and trustworthy sources
is that he IS n man OF strong native
sense. Of marked individuality ana great
force of character, and that in honesty
of purpose and integrity of conduct he is
far above the average politician. As
business man and employer he ENJOYS
the good will and respect of those with
whom he deals. and he absolutely mas
no record as a bank and corporation
wrecker. IL is discreditable less 10 MN
than to his enemies that he has been
forced into the category of the Few
names that will be abused into fame *
not into immortality. 10 is even more
discreditable 10 the good sense fairness
and patriotism of many public writer's
and speakers that they indulge the pas
sion for abusing our public men whether
they know the charges against them 20
be true or not
Those who have been reading n GER
tain class of political newspapers viii
be surprised beyond measure at
statement Of this character from an
honest Democratic newspaper. They
have been taught by cartoon and edito-
rial utterance that Mark Hanna is
monster on the face OF the earth who
does not fear God nor regard man, and
who never had a thought or an aspira-
ton beyond the almighty dollar
This simply shows TO what extent par
tisanry has gone in this age. Mr..
Hanna IS by no means model pollt.-
clan, and if the charges Of bribery
which have been made against him are
true, he is distinctly a bad man-but we
will await the proof before condemning
him. We have no sympathy with those
who. in utter disregard OF truth and
fairness, have because they dislike him
attributed to him everything that IS mean
and have made the impression that
there is no good IN him.
We do not speak in defence OF Mr..
Hanna. We are preaching a little ser
mon on fairness and we use Hanna's
case az an illustration OF the unfair
methods Of partisan journalism. No
cause is to be helped by such methods.
No man can ever make anything by
overstatng a truth. To every Democrat
Mark Hanna and his politics are sufi-
GENTLY Objectionable without exasgera-
ton. and the simple truth is enough TO
tell about any man.

THE FIRST TORPEDO,
IL Was Planted of Drcwry's Bluf AT
tcrthe Battle ofScVen Pines.

ter the Battle ofScNen fincs'
The story OF the first torpedo, which
was invented and used by General Ga
briel Rains during the war with the
Seminole Indians, April, 1910, ended In the
lighting OF sixteen soldiers (whO had gone
with Captain Rains TO investigate the
cause of the explosion with some one
hundred or more Indians, and among the
casualties the woundmg or the Captain
and his being carried TO Fort King in
the arms of his men. Another and Sec
oud torpedo bad been previously placed
nc the post by him, and soon after the
fight 1000 or more troops were collected
there. and it became such dread 10 the
whole army that d. soldier guard was put

Of his wound. what would you have

"of firing at it with a uine-p FOUNDER at q

pieces
The occasion Of his FIRST submarine
torpedo was as follows. Soon after the
battle Of Seven Pines. General Lee, com-
handing. sent for General Rains and
said 10 him.
"The enemy have upwards OF one hun
dred vessels I'm the James River, and we
think that they are about making an adj
