INDIVIDUAL HEROES.

Per force of the example set by Dew
ey, because Of the standard of herosm
fixed by him in the very first dash and
the emulation of his deed which must
naturally follow, the present war will
be marked and distinguished for a
greater number of personally heroic
acts than can be shown by the records
of probably any conflict Of modern
times. Every day now records some
individual daring act, acts which in
stimulating the witnesses Of them call
forth the admiration and commenda-
ton OF millions of people. There is the
Winslow and the Merrimac and
dozen other instances Of cable cutting.
and the like, all wonderful acts OF
bravery. Other deeds are being per-
formed by the sailors Of SIMPSONS
fleet and by the men in Skaters COM
mand. Mention was made Of the fact
that the launches Of the Dolphin and
Marblehead had dragged Guantanamo
bay for mines and had removed seven
of them. More dangerous work than
this could scarcely De assigned. yet
there was no lack of volunteers for the
hazardous service. Any one OF the
mines was filled with enough Of sun
cotton to sink a ship. and an explo-
sion was likely 10 occur at any moment,
when the graphing irons came in con-
tact with them. II was a test OF forti-
tude and courage, and the men engag-
ing in the work should be rewarded.

and many things VIII have to be thus
decorated. and among a class Of tax
shirks there will be no little complaint
Of the internal revenue stamp" On
every side there are those who will be
found grumbling over the policy of the
government and the mistake of rush
ing into war. These fellows for the
most part were very patriotic before
the war was actually on, and there
was some apparent reason to believe
that the Spaniards were inconsiderable
antagonists and would go out with one
or two quick punches. AS soon as the
fact was discovered that the Spaniards
were good fighters and that II would
require more than thirty days to defeat
them the tax shirk began to make
moan. He complained Of the president,
of the government, of the feet, of the
army, of everything connected with
the war and upon which one bit OF re-
sponsibility could rest for its prompt
elimination in victory.
The tax-shirk is now very much In
evidence. The patriotic conduct Of the
men in congress who decreed that the
larger portion of the expenses Of this
war shall be borne by the present and
not the future, finds no sympathy
from him. He regards the representa-
tives and senators who insisted upon
making the present generation pay for
the freeing of Cuba as lot Of addle-
pated numbskulls whose opinions never
ought to prevail in the halls of legis-
lation.
The tax-shirk is ready and willing to
bring the war to an end Immediately.
He does not care for the freedom Of
Cuba, he does not care for the rights
of man. What he wants is to eVade
his just share of the public burdens,
and it will be a miracle if he does not
succeed in transferring some of them
to the shoulders of his less selfish
neighborS

STRIKE SPAIN.

The Watson flying fleet announce
ment may have been merely strategic,
for the purpose of inducing Camara to
turn tail under orders from Madrid.
But after ali, Camara or no Camara,
the thing to do in connection with the
demonstrations against Porto Rico
and Cuba is to shell the coast cities of
Spain. To say nothing of the prestige
of the thing, of the effect upon Euro
pean governments, the fact would
strike terror to the hearts of the boast
ing Dons. There is said to be a reserve
squadron still at Cadiz, but so reserv-
ed as not to be able to make even
show of fight. Austria and Germany
propose to take advantage of Camara's
appearance in the Philippines. If
Watson proceeds TO lombard BARGE
Iona and other prominent coast cities
Of Spain it Will give those monarchs
something else to contemplate, some
thing else to think about than the
maintaining of Spanish rule in the
Philippines against day for divis
ion Of those islands among themselves.

ABOUT BLUE BLOOD.

The Baltimore Sun gives this ac-
count of the origin of a common
phrase: Blue blood, in the sense Of
aristocratic blood, is from the Spanish
angre azul, which implies the notion
that some of the oldest and proudest
families Of Spain, never tainted by in
termarriage with the Moorish invad-
ers, kept their blood of purer tint than
that of the common people. Prescott
the American historian, in one of his
works on Spanish history, speaks of
the anxiety shown by the modern
Spaniard to prove that the sangre azul,
blue blood, flows through his veins,
uncontaminated by any Moorish or
Jewish faint" Before the invasion Of
the Moors the kings and mobiles of
Spain were almost without exception
descendants of the Gothic conquerors
of the Pyrenean peninsula, who retain
ed the blonde hair and the pale COM
plexion of the German race. Among
the haired people the veins of the
skin are usually visible on the hand as
well as upon the forehead. They ap-
pear of a blush tint, while the blood
vessels of the dark-haired races, with
olive-colored complexion, can not be
seen through the skin. The ignorant
masses of the subjected tribes believed
the blood of the blonde races to be
really blue.

the shorthand OF the mind, and is quickly

symbol Of chivalry for many years. but
the little street boys cap in the follow

"On Stanley, On.

Topeka Capital: The placing Of a
straight Socialist ticket in the field will
serve 10 complicate matters more than
trife for Governor Leedy. While It is
certainly fact that the Socialists of Kan
sas constitute very small per cent OF the
voters when taken as a whole. yet the
Populist party IS in very poor CONDITION
to stand even a small detection.
The sop thrown out TO the Socialist ele-
ment of the Populist party in the platform
adopted at the Topeka convention VIII
fall far short Of fooling the majority OF
that class. While the facts are granted
that Socialism plays an important part in
the Populist teachings and that the plat
form adopted at the recent convention
was as radical as the most extreme mem
Der OF the party might wish for, yet there
is distrust Of the party leaders that can
not be swallowed by the equality beley-
ers.
Were Governor Leedy Socialist. he
would ut his party and his party would
fit him. But Governor Leedy is not a So
cialist. Mrs Digs emphasized this fact
when she stood up before him IN his once
the other day and scored him so merci-
Iessly for his political shortcomings. she
not only reproached him bitterly for the
disreputable record he made in regard
to the metropolitan police system but
also for being the enemy Of all true So
cialsts.
takes men with faith in them to carry
out their instructions. Governor Leedy
is at variance with his party platform In
more than one important particular His
bluff. when it came time for nomina-
ton, has become historic. The conven-
ton was going directly against his wishes
when It adopted the police plank. On
this Governor Leedy had builded his hopes
and here, he considered, lay all his
strength. He had an utter contempt for
Socialism and the part it would play in
electing him Il nominated.
But the party Though wrong in mos;
particularly, was bigger than the man and
Governor Leedy had TO climb inside the
band wagon or get run over. He climbed
in. But it was a bitter dose TO take and
Governor Leedy will continue to smart
long after ne has gone down to defeat
in November. While he will lay his defeat
TO what ne now considers his party's
foonshness in looping off such a prolific
source Of campaign revenue as the metro
politau police system, it will in reality be
caused by his trying to be all things tc
all men. No party member ever crossed
the executive threshold TO consule ever
the most trivial matter with the governor
who felt free from restraint. There is ar
atmosphere of distrust which settles
down and about all of his followers who
visit the room. They realize that he is q
politician who puts self interest above
! every other consideration, and, recognize
ing this, they guard well their words.

A DEAR WHISTLE.

The dues charged for passage through
the Suez canal are about a dollar and
a quarter a ton for every gross ton Of
shipping. The tonnage of the ships in
Admiral Camara's squadron is not def
initely known, but it must be at least
10000 gross tons. 1t may be 5000 or
$4,000 tons. In any case it is clear that
the Spanish government will have to
pay pretty penny for the privilege of
sending it's ships on a FOOLS errand,
beyond Port Said. The bill will not
be less than $4,000, and it may reach
S75, 900. In such business Spanish paper
does not go, and the payment will have
to be made in gold. That is no joke
for a bankrupt nation.

Wellington Mail: It Is amusing to read
the comment OF various newspapers on
Cy. Leland's supposed influence in the late
Republican state convention. Some Of
them persist in the statement that Cyrus
was turned down fat and hard; others
contend that he ran the whole shooting
match. The facts are that neither of these
classes are correct. The delegates to the
state convention nominated the ticket
without regard to the wishes of Leland
or any other man. They simply sized up
the candidates and picked out the very
best of them. Leland made no effort to
put up slate; he was more interested in
w. ]. Bailey than any other man; he was
nominated and Leland went home as
happy as anybody; so did Leland's per-
sonal and political enemies. The present
Republican state ticket is not the product
of any boss, or set of bosses amy clique
or combination OF cliques. 1t is the free,
untrammeled choice Of the Republicans OF
the state, and consequently, it is revolving
the most cordial support fevery Republic
can in the state.
