HOBSON's CHOICE.

Hobson, the hero, is now having his
turn in the pictorial papers, as well as
a place in the estimation of his fellow
countrymen.
The Spanish government has author
lied General Blanco to arrange for the
exchange Of the heroes of the Merri-
mac expedition, and those brave fell
lows will doubtless regain their liber-
ty as soon as the Spanish prisoners for
whom they are to be exchanged can be
taken to Santiago.
This VIII be gratifying to the Ameri-
can people, who have been anxious for
the safety of Hobson and his seven
sailors since their confinement in Moro
Castle, at the entrance to Santiago
harbor.
The speedy release of the eight Amer
leans is to be followed by substantial
promotion in the navy which will be a
fitting reward for the gallantry that
was displayed in the successful at
tempt to block the escape Of Cervera's
feet. The president has already sent
a communication to congress recon-
mending that Lieutenant Hobson be
advanced ten numbers among the ma
val constructors. and marked promo
tons in rank, with increase pay, have
been decided upon for all the brave
seamen.
The promotion would have been
granted anyway, but it is doubly graft
flying to know that Hobson and his
crew can secure them without enduring
long imprisonment in Cuban fortress.
They took fearful risk and every
American will rejoice to know that
they stand chance Of escaping so |
easily.

The United States of America started

the whole thing. Havana once reduced

no farther call for a continuation of the
war with its attendant expenses and
exposures. SO far all the determine
tons and demonstrations have been
with reference to every other posses
sion Of Spain to the exclusion Of Ha-
vana the head and heart Of Cuba. Far
Their than a more or less effectual block

ton has been made against the place
or position. We have successfully at

aim. the principal object, remains un-
disturbed. It is said that General Miles.

Havana, over persuaded A1ger. who, in
turn, over-persuaded the president,

lead our army. a large number Of old
and conservative generals had to be
displaced before young Grant led the
Union armies to victory. It is the
Hobsons and Deweys, men Of dash

spirit and meet the expectations Of the

COTTON AND THE SOUTH.

The cotton crop of 1897 was about -
100000 bales greater than the crop Of
1896. The low price Of cotton has step
ped in to counteract this increase and
the unfortunate southern farmers will
this year cultivate about 1,355,oO acres
Of cotton less than last year. This
should spur on the south to agricultural
pursuits other than cotton raising.
Some 6oo,0oO,O0o pounds Of wool are an
nually consumed in the United States
and the surprising fact is that but one
half of this total is Of home production.
Here is an excellent opportunity for
the south. Her farmers could well
adapt all surplus acreage TO sheep rails

TYPEWRITER VICTORIES.

CASTELAR,. the eminent Spanish states
man who used to admire the Arneri-
can republic, says that this country
has proved its superiority to Spain on
the sea, but he thinks that when the
American armies land IN Cuba Spanish
victory will be heard of. Very likely.
The only thing which can prevent such
things from being heard Of IN Spain
viii be the utter inability Of the Span
ish officials in Cuba to send fairy tales
to the home government But the diff
ference between hearing Of Spanish
victories and winning such successes
has long been painfully clear to Span
cards who care anything for the truth
and have intelligence enough to know
when they are being lied to by the au-
thorities at Madrid. Spain will hear
of many victories over American troops
in Cuba, but she viii not win one.

Just For Symmetry

Lord Selkirk had a formal garden-an
Italian garden, as II is called-and his
gardener was very proud Of it. One day,
says the Argonaut, Lord Selkirk found a
boy shut up in the summer house at the
end Of the terrace at s.. Mary's Isle.
and was informed by his gardener that
II was for stealing apples. On reaching
the other end OF the terrace, where there
was another summer house. Selkirk be-
held the gardeners son looking d0IefuIly

this? Has your boy been stealing, top

CUBA's BRIGHT FUTURE.

OF the immense sums annually wrung
from the West Indies and the Philip
pines by the Spaniards only a minor
per cent reached the exchequer at Ma
drid. The direct taxes and duties laid
by the kingdom were less than the
total amount stolen outright by resi-
dent Spanish officials. One governor
general Of Cuba in less than three years
time fattened his private fortunes to
the tune of three millions of dollars.
Weyler as governor general of the
Philippines set the fashion of taxing
people for the privilege of breathing.
Spain has squeezed from the peoples Of
these islands an indemnity for the ex-
pense Of putting down the revolutions
of the insurgents. The revenues that
Spain wrung out Of Cuba before the
revolution amounted to about $25, OOO,-
900 annually. In 1884 the tyrant drained
from the island the nonstrous sum of
$34, 269, 40 OF this amount more than
100000 was used for military i'm
provements, TO defray war debts and
to pay Spanish officials and clergymen.
Extremely small was the sum appro-
priated for educational purposes. If
Cuba, even under such misrule, was a
pearl" who can foreteII the degree Of
prosperity that she is to experience
under a free govrnment and one that
promotes education?

New York Sun: The platform adopted
by Kansas Republicans last week calls
for the broad and strong patriotic policy
which the events of the war have made
necessity for the United States. After
heartily approving the policy of Presi-
dent Mckinley IN the preparation for and
conduct Of the war, and pledging to him
their loyal support" the Kansas Repub-
licans thus declare their belief as to the
imminent needs OF the United States:
1.-THE experience of recent events has
demonstrated that our navy should be i'm
medately strengthened and enlarged so
that It VII command and compel the re-
spect of the world. We believe that the
necessities of war have supplemented the
arguments Of peace and that the Mica
ragua canal should be built as speedily
as possible. We believe that the Hawaiian
islands should be annexed. and we urge
our representatives in congress to sup
port the resolution providing for their
immediate acquisition"
The Kansas Republicans will have 10
their advantage this year even stronger
advocates than the great wheat crop and
the generally prosperous conditions by
which the Populists and Democrats. the
nurslIngs OF disaster are dismayed. They
keep step TO the march OF inevitable !

Of their discouraged and sullen oppon-
ents VIII come many deserters. sick OF

present and the future.
