Politicians assert that the (, United
States are now moved by selfish con-
siderations and are not imbued with the
feeling OF humanity, nor yet by the
principles OF liberty and equality, but
by selfish calculations tending toward
the absorption OF the island (Cuba).
This Is an old song. There Is no pow
er which In the matter Of defending
others Is not accused of selflshness.
Where Is the ideal government which
excludes sellshness and is guided only
by knightly honor?
1.-THE United States have the right to
be guided by their own interests. For
several decades at their very doors e1-
ceptional things have happened. People
dlscontented at the heavy taxation
which Is squeezed out Of them have
been murdered. Tens of thousands OF
the people Of the. rural districts, having
raised no banner of Instruction, but
peacefully following their toilsome vo-
cations, are forciblyi torn from their
mother earth and detained In the mar
row confines Of the city, where there Is
little bread, but many guns and SOL
diers. What are they to do in those
cities? The impartial testimony Of Eu-
ropean consuls shows that In Cuba
death from starvation Is common oc-
currence, and that even now, on the eve
Of their liberation, thousands die. OF

Baltimore Sun:.1t is aninteresting bit
Of history that once he might have been
king Of Spain If he had been willing to
abate his claim to rule as an absolute
monarch. The present prime minister,
sagasta, went to him in 1868 and offered
him the crown on the condition that he
would sign constitution and be q linn
tied monarch. He was then but nine
teen years OF age. but he replied, like q
true Bourbon:-a.I will sign nothing.
When l come to my throne 1 will rule
my land as I and the ministers choose
see fit" He still holds the same rigid
notions Of what true kingship is. For
that reason he Is likely to die un-

Curious Things of the War.

In speaking of the enlistment of
volunteers for the Cuban war the
Charleston Gazette has this to say:
ut is a remarkable fact that the de-
partment, up to date, has received
1.700I applications for military offices
This is frightfully out of all propo-
tion to those who have applied for en-
listment, and yet applications for
offices are still pouring in, and there
are enough of them, to furnish a
good sized army.
'sIt has several times been suggest
ed that this array of would-be leaders
be formed into regiment. With
their ambitions announced knowledge
of military affairs, and great bravery,
they would be formidable crowd.
1t is said that one of the first lieu
tenants in the second regiment, who
stands good show of being appoint
ed captain of his company if he sticks
to it, has been offered S., 900 by his
father to stay at home and that he
has accepted the offer and resigned
his commission. This is merely men
toned as one of the curious things of
war. The incident is quite different
from one which is said to have oc-
CURED recently in Clay county, where
an old confederate veteran, so far
from paying his boy to stay at home,
threatened to disinherit him if he
did not enlist. The young man en-
listed.

Mr. Smiths new jewelry store in
the Wood building has been open for
some time and is doing a considerable
amount of business. His repair de-
partment is also attracting attention.
Mr.. Smith is careful, conscientious
business man and has always made it
rule to do business in a straight
forward, square way, so he has the
confidence of his customers who al
ways continue to deal with him after
making his acquaintance. For any
thing in the jewelry line or for any
repairs give Mr.. Smith a call. Store

The Leading jewelers.

HE arrangements of the battal-
ions OF the second regiment will
leave Major Babb and Lieut.. G. E.
Gramm out of the organization.
They are two of the best military
men in the state and mistakes of
this kind will prove very costly in
the end. The men are disguised
when they see good men with ex-
perience lett out and popinays with
nothing but pull of some kind to
commend them given the best places.
The second regiment may be all
right but it could easily have been
made much better.
