The Philadelphia Inquirer calls atten- ton to the fact that the land upon which the American army is fighting in Cuba belongs to residents of Phila- delphia and vicinity. The rich mines near Santiago are especially valuable for certain forgings, particularly for shells and armor plate, and some of the ships off Baicuiri are protected with metal that few years ago lay in the hills few miles away and probably some of the shells fired from those ships are made of the same ore and now return home again.

Germany's Court of Appeal has just drawn fine distinction in the case of false Imprisonment. A doctors board ing house keeper took away his only pair of boots to prevent his leaving the house, and the doctor recovered dam ages in the lower court on the ground that he was thereby imprisoned, as his social position forbade his appearing in peals has ordered a new trial on the ground that the doctors freedom of action was merely limited and impeded by his landlady's act, but that it was not impossible for him to move out if he had wished to.

There is trouble in New York because of the recent sale of forty-one lots of real estate by William Waldorf Astor for $750,000. The price troubles nobody, but the ground rent system troubles many Since 1S4S tenants have built houses upon these lots and spent money in improving them. Now they find that they must either buy at the price imposed by the new owner or else what in some cases amounts to the tenants all. Mortgagees are worried, too, because the mortgagor has nothing on which he can realize.

Hypocrisy and Lying.

The GRAPHIC delights in dealing courteously with it's contemporaries, employees and the public generally, and dislikes to engage in unpleasant controversies, even in it's own de- fense and when warranted by facts. But out of respect to itself and the truth, it cannot permit to go by un- noticed and unanswered downright lying and shameless hypocrisy, re- sorted to for the purpose creating prejudice against it. With this brief introduction we respectfully ask the indulgence of our readers to make reply to the following para graph in the last issue of a 'puny weekly" known as the Courier. The paragraph follows;

THERE are a lot of jingoes who want to go to war with Spain be- cause 250 American sailors were blown up in the harbor of Havana. Do they suppose that there won't be any more lives lost if the country goes to war? Wouldn't it be better to accept an indemnity for the loss of our ship and 25o lives tban to go to war and have several thousands killed. War is not a harmless pastime as some seem to think.

labor unions, which tend to protect their employees against unfair treat ment and starvation wages. Let them deny it if they can. They are also very patriotic; in fact, so much so that on each Christmas Day and Fourth of July they close up their offices and give their employees a holiday-then Hdock" them for one day the following payday. But on the following first of the month it IS different. They make out their bills to subscribers and adver- tisers and collect for papers which were never printed and advertise ments which never appeared, thus making their holiday business CD all profit.
 To the above the GRAPHIC makes emphatic denial. We are not op- posed to labor unions, when rightly conducted and managed, a state ment that is attested by the fact that while there IS no typographical union in Pine Bluff, yet the GRAPH 10 pays it's printers higher scale of wages than that adopted by the Ty- geographical Union of Texarkana, Ia town of about the same size and i'm portance), for day work.
 But let us see how Lypocritical is the claim of the Main Street "Growlers" about unionism. The GRAPHIC begs to advise them that under union rules not one of the publishers or proprietors of that sheet is eligible to membership in a union. Perhaps they don't think we know this, but we do. They are no more eligible to membership than Editors Newman, Murray and Ad- ans, all of whom are practical prin- ters, but barred from membership because they are proprieto"s. And the publishers and proprietors of the "Growler' are barred by the same rule.
 As to the editors and publishers of the 'Growler," two of them are printers and one is not. The two that are printers hove in the past, ! been mem bers of Q union, but the GRAPHIC desires to voeehsafe to the public the information that neither of them is in good standing before the union. One has been suspended from a union, and the other allowed his membership to lapse, and has been heard and known to personally denounce the union for declaring az unwarranted strike in the Appeal ef- flee at Memphis when be held cases on that paper. These remarks are susceptible of proof, and we men, tion the matter simply to show the insincerity and hypocrisy of the men who are now pretending to pose as the friends of organized labor.
 As to the charge that the GRAPHIC has "docked' it's employees for Christmas Day and the Fourth of July, our files show that the 4th of July 1896 fell on Saturday, on which the GRAPHIC issues DO daily, but that it was regularly issued on the following Sunday morning, and ev- cry employe received full pay. July 4th, 1897, fell on the Sabbath day and the Daily GRAPHIC was regular ly issued on that morning, and those who worked received full pay.
 As to Christmas day the GRAPH 1o's books during this period show that it's employees received full pay for the week.
 With this brief explanation, made in justice to ourselves, we respect fully dismiss the "Growlersp from our further consideration.

Guard Charles Lauterbach of Mount

victS O'Neill and Atkinson received in
juries of a serious nature, and both are
now in the prison hospital
BY some means Convicts O'Neill and
Atkinson, who are serving fifteen years
for robbery, obtained a revolver. One
covered his face with a handkerchief
and went into the broom shop, where
he held up Guard Lime and took his re-
volver. He then returned to the shoe
shop, where the other man joined him,
and they opened fire upon Guard Lau-
terbach, who was in charge of that de-
partment. The guard was shot three
times and almost instantly killed. The
sound of the shooting reached the other
officials in the prison, and they came on
the run to investigate Guard Gump
was the first on the scene, and taking
in the situation at a. glance, opened fire
on the two prisoners. This was re-
turned until the revolvers of all the
participants were emptied. In the fray
Convict Atkinson was shot down. AS
soon as the guns We're emptied, Guard
Gump rushed in, and with his cane al
most beat O'Neill to death before the
prisoner would surrender. Atkinson was
shot in the body, but is not thought to
be fatally hurt, but O'Neill was so

les may result fatally

NO FURTHER DELAY.
Spain Must Cede the Philippines at
Once.

Washington, Nov. 1S.-The two new
points-laid down by the Spanish peace
commissioners in the answer presented
by them at Wednesdays session of the
joint commission, will not be permitted
to change the attitude of the United
States commissioners. These points
were, in substance, that the SpaniardS
could not permit any question to be
raised as to authority of the Spanish
government to pledge the resources of
the Philippines loan, and that they
could not permit an accounting of the
method in which the proceeds of this
loan had been expended. There is rea-
son to believe that the Spanish purpose
is to conceal enormous defalcationS by
the Spanish officials.who have governed
the Philippines since the issue of the
loan. The ostensible purpose is to be
able to plead inability to state what the
Pacific expenditures" have been on ac-
count of the Philippines, which was all
that the United States proposed to re-
imburse them for.
Our government, however, in antici
patton of such evasive dealings, has
prepared the American commissioners
with instructions which exactly meet
this case. They know approximately
the value of the bettermentS in the
Philippines, having ascertained this
from private, but thoroughly reliable
sources. Knowing this, they can af-
ford to ignore entirely the efforts of
the SpaniardS to becloud the facts and
