SINFUL SPAIN.

Senor Dupuy de Lome, he who wrote letter in reference to President Mckinley, and went back to Spain in a hurry, has now been talking about the mistakes of the war When asked where he placed the responsibility for Spain's repeated disasters he replied:
 The government, the army and navy, the diplomatists and the party poli- ticians have all sinned The father land has sinned mortally It's patri- otism and all it's actions have been passive. It has not striven to achieve anything; consequently it has achiev- ed nothing. The only thing we can do now is to repent and reform. If we have not known how to defend the country we received from our fathers, let us see that our sons do better.
 Coming from de Lome this is sur prising, albeit truthful. From the very beginning of Spain's control of Cuba it has blundered. The responsibility

TWO DoN'Ts

Charles F. Jones, writing in Printers Ink on ~Sbore Man- agement,' 9 refers to an adver- tiser who has carried 1lVe -sdon@ts" pasted on the inside Of a note book which be keeps in his pocket Two of these "don'ts'' read as follows: Don't think you can grind a newspaper down in price of space, so that it will cost almost nothing. If a newspaper breaks its price easily, be sure it knows that what it sells is not worth much.
 sDon't advertise once in awhile and then stop. You would not take medicine that way. The first few doses do not often help you-it is a repeti- tion that cures"
 These "don'ts" have a direct application in Phoenix. The Republican is repeatedly asked . to break it's regular price. It refuses to do this. Its rates are established. It has no favorites. One advertiser pays as much as another. Its rates are higher than those of the other Phoenix papers. Advertisers may easily ascertain the reason why by comparing The Republicans cir culation with the circulation Of the other papers. An advertise ment inserted in The Republi- can is read by all the people in the Salt River valley whose trade is worth soliciting.
 As to the second don't" it is in line with what The Republi- can is constantly preaching. Tho iufarrittopt odvnrti cor wastes his money. The steady advertiser reaps the reward of his far SightednesS.
 There are more regular ad- vertiSerS in Phoenix than there were a year ago, and they pat ronize the Arizona Republican.

Productive of revenue as the war ta,
 has proved to be, it's possibilities ir this respect, it appears, are not yet ex. hausted. Officials of the internal rev. enue bureau declare that many of the special taxes levied upon bankers
 brokers. theaters, museums, billiard halls, manufacturers and dealers iD tobacco and the like remain unpaid, al- though the date for payment of them has expired. This means, probably that a large addition will be made to the receipts of the government in the next few days, for failure to pay the taxes in question is undoubtedly the result of carelessness or ignorance ot the new revenue law. With these spe- cial taxes paid, the deficit in the treas ury will become still less matter ot serious import.

MUST SERVE HIS SENTENCE.
The Supreme Court Refuses to Give
Barnes a New Trial.


The Supreme court yesterday af-
frmed the decision of the lower court III
the case of the State against J. u.
Barnes. and that worthy will
soon be brought Uack here to serve out
his seven-year sentence IN the peniten'
tiary.
1t will be remembered that Barnes
was o. fusion magistrate near Rocky
Mount and he was accused of assault
ing. with intent to rape, girl who liyeo
in his family, while on their way to
church,.
When the crime became known there
was great Indignation and talk of lynch
ing. and Barnes was brought here for
safe keeping. Later he was taken TO
Mash county and tried, convicted and
sentenced to seven years in the penn
tertiary.
In drawing the bill of indictment
though, Solicitor Bernard wrote "as
saulted her to commit rape" when he
should have written, ASSAULTED her Win
intent to commit rape" On this Barnes
appealed to the Supreme court. That
tribunal says, however, that this dc
feet is not fatal; that there can be
10 doubt as to- what is meant, and that
the decision of the lower court must
stand.

LEFT OUT IN THE COLD
A PENlTENTIARY HORSE COOLS HIS HEELS
IN RALEIGH.
Two Members of The Board Forgot Him and
Left Him Htched Out
All Night.

The penitentiary directors were in ses

for there is mileage and per diem at.
tached to an attendance on a board
meeting, and it is as easy to have a
meeting as it is Populist caucus dur
ing a session of the Legislature.
a. Y. Sigmon, of Catawba, and Peter
Hughes, of Alamance, were present ut
last weeks meeting. Nor is this at all
astonishing, for Sigmon and Hughes are
members of the board and if there is
anything they think more of than some
mileage and per diem their closest
friends friends have never found out
what ii is, but there is just little funny
story connected with last weeks meet
ing, that was somewhat out of the ordi-
nary.
The board met at the pen and the
members jolTneyed back and forth from
the city to the meeting.
lit was on Thursday evening.
Mammoth questions had been up be-
fore the board, such questions as Fed
Grad prison attachments, Caledonia cot
ton. Halifax farm fodder, Mewbourne vs..
Smith and as a superintendent which
was the whicher, the consideration of
these and other weighty matters had
wearied the gentleman from Alamance
and the gentleman from Catawba. They
would like to ride to town. Coffee VIM
bish could fix that all right. His fiery
steed had not been hauling coffee in sew
eral days. He was nimble and fleet of
foot, and his buggy too was creased to
the Queens taste. ''Jtlst pile right in
and ride to the city and back" said the
distinguished coffee connoiseur and Pc
ter III. and Youhesibius s. drove the
steed of the State into the city. They
tied his horseship to a swinging limb on
the street, come down to the Marlborough
House, got to talking with the gathered
Populist politicians, forgot all about the
horse and buggy, went back to the pen
and left the Wimbish steed to cool his
heels all night long right where they had
originally tied him. The shiverine horse
dosed away during the early hours of the
evening and complained not, when the
chilly winds blew through his wbiskers.

that they had left his horseship in tbe
