For more than a quarter of a century
Republican newspapers have been rail-
ing against the south, working up pre-
JUDGE against southern people, and try
ing to create sectional strife for parti-
san purposes.
Now they are sneering at the west,
slurring the mining states, and com
pairing the people of such states to the
coolies and natives of the newly ac-
quired islands of the Pacific
The New York Press is a typical
goldbug, abolition, protective tariff,
administration organ. But it scents
danger to its pet theories in the recog-
milton of the colonies won from Spain.
1t fears that the barbarians of Oceanica
viii prove as untractable as did the
rebels of the reconstructed south or the
free silver cranl1s of the west" Among
other complimentary things the Press
says:
With the imminent menace confront
ing US of Kanaka states, Tagal states,
Moro states, Hispano-negro-C arib
states, ruling us by deals with solid
southern and silver mining states, it
seems to be a most childish form of
trifiing, this outpour of Jeffersonian
apothegms in illustration of the menace
with which we confront the Tagals
and Caribs in bringing them civil and
religious liberty. Why waste sympa-
thy on vassals when we are not at all
certain as to which the vassals are to
be, these people or ourselves"
If the goldbugs, those of the Press
caliber, had their way about it, perhaps
the southern states. the western states,
the Kanaka, Tagal and Moro states,
would all be cut off without represen-
tation. The classification made by the
Press shows the esteem in which the
west and south are held by the goldbug
press.

DAUNTLESS EXPEDITION.
Mr.. Nunez Claims TO Have Landed
100000 Bullets.

Philadelphia, March 4.--Emilio Nun
e2. the promoter of Cuban iilibustering
expeditions who has just returned to
his home in this city from his recent
trip to Cuba on the filibustering steam
er Dauntless, was today shown the
Washington dispatch which stated that
Senior du Bose, the Spanish charge
d'affaires, had informed the state de-
partment that the Dauntless eXpedi-
tion was not successful and had failed
to effect a landing.
Mr. Nunez shrugged his shoulders af-
ter the dispatch had. been read to him
and remarked that it is Just as well
that the Spanish authorities shall have
that opinion regarding the Dauntless
expedition, but evidently becoming
more interested in the topic he con-
tinued My last expedition put into
Cuba 100000 bullets located at the end
of 100000 Mauser cartridges. And
every one of these bullets is now be-
ing used to let daylight into the Span
iards who think as Senor du Bose
thinks. If Senor du Bose knows as
much about my recent expedition as
the Spanish authorities in Havana
know about the destruction of the
Maine and if Senior du Bose says that
expedition was failure, as the Hav-
ana authorities say the Maine blew up
on her own account. then Senor du
Bose is of the same stripe as the au-
thorities in Havana. He is liar"
Mr.. Nunez expressed the opinion that
the battleship Maine was destroyed "by
Spanish officials, with their knowledge
and by their hands"
