The Spanish government has at last made
known the exact figures of the army sent to
the West Indies since 1895. When the insur-
rection broke out at the end of February,
1895. Spain had barely 1900 men in Cuba,
and 5000 in Porto Rico. To these forces were
added in two years and eight months 235. 600
men, Fifty thousand died in Cuba alone. of
whom 1000 were killed in action or died of
wounds All the rest were victims of the
climate. Forty thousand were sent home in
the first three years of the war as invalids.
The difference between these figures and
the total number who left Spain tallies APP
proximately with the statistics of the forces
that have evacuated Santiago and Porto
Rico. and those of the troops yet to leave
Cuba. They show that Spain made a gigan-
tic effort to hold Cuba, with small results.

The new outbreak of political proscrip-
sissippi and North Carolina is peculiarly
inopportune just after a war which dis
played Southern patriotism in so fine light
No doubt the best people in the South
deprecate these outbreaks. and yet the
odium and injustice of them will rest on
that entire section. The time has passed
for force laws or congressional coercion to
compel the Southern States and people to
do justice in this matter. and yet it is
hurnilisting to have to admit that we have
undertaken TO establish free government in
Cuba while its fundamental principles are
disregarded in portions of our own country.

Free-silver Democrats are threatening to
demand a hearing in the next House when
the question of regulating the coinage in
Porto Rico comes up. That island having
been annexed, United States money must
of course, supersede Spanish coin the
legal tender medium. and legislation must
be enacted which will fix definitely the re-
lation between American silver and Porto
Rican silver The calling in of the silver
money coined by Spain and the fixing of
the relative values of the two coinages
pending the completion of this movement
viii require careful financiering and wise
legislation. IL is this situation which the
free siIverites propose to take advantage of
to put their ideas into practice. In other
words they propose, il possible. to bring
the United States silver coinage down to
an equality with the present Spanish coin
age in Porto Rico In this, in their at
tacks on the conduct OF the war. they arc
more spanish-American than American.

Observation-Disclosures Plans.

The Socialist Labor party held their usual
Saturday evening open air meeting last night
at the corner of Seventh and Cedar streets.
A goodly and enthusiastic crowd listened to
the speakers. John A. Gray. young man
with excellent voice and delivery, was tbs
speaker of the evening. He spoke on the
struggle of the laboring people to get posi-
lions, while each year the use Of machinery
made work harder to get. He said the
Socialists stood against those who would try
to gain the votes of the masses for gold or
silver, standard, or protection or free trade.
Mr.. Gray claimed. and quoted statistics to
show, that the laboring classes were being
robbed by the ''bloated bondholder" and that
all the present economic evils were caused
by cover appropriation rather than over
production. Mr.. Gray was heartily applauded
throughout his speech
H. CARING followed Mr. Gray. He expourd-
ed, in a forceful way, the doctrine of ''no
violence, but everything through the ballot
box"

Of "Emir Al Mumenin," or prince of

to indicate the member of the Sheridan
family, who, according to his conscien-

cession is, however, elective, and all
members of the Sheridan family are
eligible. Generally the deceased sui
tan's nominee is elected by public ac-
clamation at monday prayers the Fri
day after the sultan's death, as the
nominee has probably possession Of i'm
