Americans and Cubans.

The war correspondent of the London
Daily Mail wrote from Tampa:
THE odd thing about it is that the
Americans do not think very much OF
these Cubans personally. Perhaps that
is because when we come to look at them
we are struck by the circumstance that
they are very much like Spaniards.
"Here, at the hotel in the evening, when
the band begins to play and the broad
chested, frank faced, jovial giants oil
American officers come-thOse who can
be spared from their regimental duties =
to lounge and smoke and swap reminis-
cences with old comrades long parted,
there appear also a number of elegant lit
tie military men in dandy brown canvas
uniforms. They wear elegant, clOse-fitting
boots, and the brims of their hats are
turned up with such a dandy curl, and
their thick, black mustaches are twisted
up ever so cunningly, and on the swarthy
faces, as they look round, there is a
naughty, supercilious, almost contemptu-
Gus expression. They are officers of the
Cuban insurgents and officers of the con-
tingent of Cuban volunteers, which the
American Government has fitted out to
accompany the expedition.
"You would expect them to be filled with
an enthusiasm of gratitude toward the
American soldiers who are here to redress
their wrongs, but they do not show it"

a right angle with the river, he advanced en-
ccheion, preceded by skirmishers, across a
ravine to the opposite bluff, where he waited
for Sherman to come up; and meantime,
finding his right secured by q swamp, at
tempted to turn the enemy's left, which was
thereupon heavily being effectively
cannoraded by the batteries of Thompson and
Thurber.
An attempt was made to capture Thurber's
battery by dash of cavalry, which was easily
defeated by the skirmishers of the 9Th Mo. /;
when the battery was charged by infantry,
who were easily repealed by Col. Morgan L..
Smiths Brigade.
Meantime Gen. Sherman, who had waited
for the sound of Buell's guns upon the main
Corinth road, advanced ut 8 a. m, steadily
and slowly, under fire, until he reached the
point where the COrinth road crosses the line
of Netherlands abandoned camps, and saw
Willich's regiment, on his right, fighting
calamity for the possession of point of
timber some 500 yards east of Shiloh Church
Hence the rebel army could be seen re-
forming its lines to the southwark, with a
battery by the church, aud another near the
Hamburg road, pouring grape and canister
into any column of our troops that advanced
upon that green point of timber whence
Willich's regiment had just been repulsed,

That Bow Creek Road.

The Klrwin Independent knocks
the wind out of Bro. Royce's political
road in Bow Creek, by stating that
the road was laid out on line that
had been travelled for years, but
which WAS closed up by the present
owner Of tho land. We have made
inquiry and found this to be the fact.
The people in the neighborhood of
this road have been trying for some
time to get road east and west.
Three petitions at least have been
presented to the commissioners. In
looking them over, we find the name
of that good man, j. A. Butts, who is
a republican and who asks that the
road be laid out on the section line.
So there can not be any politics IN
road petition signed by Mr. Butts
We mention him because he is about
the only one whose name is on the
petition whom we know This petit
ton WAS not granted.
Later on Mr.. Stroup in 1897, with
a republican board Of commissioners,
asks to have road lsId out on the
half section line that Royce bellows
40 much about, and which is so level.
Parties through whose land the pro-
posed road was to be LAID presented
claims to the viewers Of Sill. AT
that time Mr.. Stroup fixed the value
of his land at $40 per acre. The COM
missioners rejected the prayer OF the
petitioner. Mr.. Stroup, a republican,
gets knocked out by a republican
board. (See Road No. SAY No pol
itlcs in that
Finally the commissioners granted
tho prayer OF another petition and
ordered the road opened on the sec
ton line and gave M. Stroup $3.50
damages, or a good price per acre.
The Manager can see the road Mr.
Stroup wants was refused by repub-
lican commissioners, so he should not
whine SO when pop commissioners do
likewise. Look up the record and
print the truth. All that Is wrong
with Royce is county printing.

Ravce and the Soldiers.

Manager Royce had bad case OF
jim jams d week or so ago over the
reported promotions in Company d,
aud cried long and loud over the fact
chaS some naughty pop had been
gwen places. lie SAID;
From letter received this morning
from Percy Lowe 1t 10 learned thai
upon the resignation Of Capt. Vaughn
the first lieutenant was appointed
captain and the 5th corporal WAS sp-
pointed first lieutenant over Geo.
Tucker. Both Of these gentlemen,
who received these promotions, were
populists and the man who was en-
titled to promotion WAS a republican.
The officers OF the regiment who made
the appointment are the appointOes of
Gov. Leedy and are populists, and
yet we are told that there was no
politics in the organlz alton Of Kansas
soldiers. Under ordinary clrcum-
stances nothing would be thought of
this matter and people would think
that Mr.. Tucker was not big enough
10 be promoted, but the fact is Tucker
Ia the best qualified soldier In the
company, has been its drlllmsster
since It's organization and, in fact, is
one Of the best tacticians in the reg
iment. There is not a man with better
habits in the regiment than Geo
Tucker aud in every way he deserves
promotion and in all probability
would have received it if he had be
longed TO the other political party.
The Msukato Advocate replied:
This is a whine characteristic Of a
republican postmaster editor. There
is no doubt that Royce has right to
roar because the 9th corporal was pro-
noted over the heads Of 4 corporals,
6 segeants and the second lieutenant,
and he has got so accustomed to
charging everything to populists
which does not suit him, that he fol-
lows his usual custom in this case and
makes a holy of himself. Say, Royce,
how are you going to crawl out OF
YOUR TRADE when you learn that this
9th corporal who was promoted over
the heads of so many of his superior
officers. your second lieutenant Tuck
or included, is an incorporating
republican, son of the cashier of the
First National Bank OF Jewell City,
the most rampant and unreasonable
gold bug republican in Jewell coun-
tye This is fact. It was doubtless
a political pull and financial pull
which secured the promotion, but 1t
was republican, Royce, gold hug re-
publican. Apply your criticisms ia
republicans, where it belongs, and
you are all right.
It is to be regretted very much that
Royce's story should fall SO fiat, but
the facts are that a petition was sent
to Gov Leedy asking that he appoint
H. N. Bopd to the captsinOy. The
Capital says that first Lieutenant
Oalkins has been made captain and
second Lieutenant Tucker made LIST
lieutenant This is as it should be
Will the Manager" confess that he
was wrong.

How does the good old republican
who has stood by his party for 10 these
many years, like the idea Of having
his ticket headed by pop" Dollars
TO pennies that Royce does not tell
his readers a word about the political
history of his candidate for the legis-
lAture.
