RELIEF FOR CUBA.

/ a spectacle as that presented by the
! United States ard Spain at this mo-
Inent- Disguise the fact as we. may,

/ stiH remains true that each ration IS
preparing for war. Their relations are
so strai-ed and the tension on either
! so great that q really insignificant
event might precipitate hostilities at
any moment. But Notwithstanding the
fact that both nations are preparing
for war ard their relations are SO
strained, the United States are sending
relief expeditions to Cuba to succor
those who have been reduced to pow
erty, starvation and death itself

and still pursues, towards them; and

lief supplies to be landed; and in the
| most p-ofuse terms thank the Amer

a very serious question arises right
here. The United States have taken
notice of the condition OF the people of
Cuba ard have sought to relieve them.
Spain, ny dCtSltl--S liz iS.Atl, tN.AhtS,
at least tacitly, that she is unable TO
relieve them or to put q stop to the
conditions that make the relief neces-
sary. The Spaniards are responsible
for these conditions and TO no one else.
Do not the government and the Amer
lean people give encouragement to the
continuance of these conditions they SO
deplcre when they send relief to Cuba?
The relief of the Cubans at the hands
of the American people relieves Spain
of that duty. Bad as matters are, they
would be worse if this relief were not
given. No American will say the Gu
bans should not be relieved of their
sufferings, but does the method adopted
by the Americans do anything more
than prolong thar sufferings? If the
conditions in Cuba are such that they
have aroused the sympathies of the ma
ton, as they have, and call for relief.
are they not such as to warrant the
government Intervening to Go away
with these conditions altogether? The
relief this country is now sending to
Cuba seems almost a mockery in view
Of all the circumstances.

THE TRIBUNE TO SILVER RE
PUBLICANS.

The Tribune declares it to be it's pri-
vate belief that the silver Republicans
of Utah ought, pretty soon, to get to-
gether and organize. 1t closes its arti-
Gle with these words:
Under such circumstances, it would
! he better for silver Republicans to COM
bine and. with the old watchWords, go
into the fight, to win, if possible, but
! to at least save their se,f-resDect. 1t
viii not require very much, il any,
| change in the slogan which Repubt
I cans have always used in Utah. As of
! old, il win be silver, protection and
| reciprocity, and Notwithstanding the
| confidence of our friends on the other
! side, it viii be very apt TO win. Our
/ country is liable to be involved in
! great war in the next few weeks or
/ days; in that event silver Republicans
can add to their creed their hearty en-
| dorsement of the war. The best way
{ for earnest men to accomplish any
( thing is to try.
Before the silver Republicans accept
and act upon the suggestion of our con-
temporary, they should ponder well
what Hon. W. Il. Dickson. Hon. C. S.
Varian and Hon. Frank Stephens had
to say, in Sundays Herald, on the par
amount issue of the forthcoming cam
raign. These gentlemen are quite as
much entitled TO speak 10 and on behalf
OF those Republicans who have ceased
to give their adherence to the Republi-
can party because of its assault on sill
yer and adherence TO the gold standard,
as any one. They have put principle be-
fore partisanship, instead of talking
about it.
Il believe that the reforms hoped for
can only be accomplished through the
Democratic party says Mr.. Variar.
And he further says: There seems to
be no place for a third party" What
has the Tribune to say 10 such declara-
tons as these? Does ii consider that
there was any "abasement" on the part
of Mr.. Varian when he made them?
4 co rot think there is any such
thing as a silver Republican" says Mr..
Stephens. The term is paradoxical A
silver man IS a Democrat. and a gold
man is g Republican, What has the
Tribune to say to such declarations as
these? Does it consider that there was
any "abasement" on the part of Mr..
Stephens whea he made them?
Why has our contemporary been SO
silent about what these gentlemen have
said? They are prominent citizens.
leaders Of political thought, and they
have spoken on the most important
question Of the day in Utah. Yet the
Tribune has remained dumb as an
oyster regarding what they have said.
What is the reason for this? Is it that
our contemporary considers the men or
the matter Of no consequence

DEFENsEs OF THE COUNTRY.

The people hear very much about the
defenses of the country. and the elao-
crate plans that have been made for
fortifying all the harbors. To carry out
these plans it has been calculated it
will take a number of years. and cost
many million dollars. If the defenses
planned are necessary for the safety of
the country, and on this point we ex-
press no opinion, then common sense
would dictate that the sooner they are
completed the better. If they can be
completed in one year it is better that
they be completed in that time than
that five or six or ten years be con-
sumed in completing them. Their cost
to the government will be the same in
the end, though. of course, it is recoS-
nized that it would put more strain on
the government to expend in one year
all the millions it would cost to con-
struct the necessary Notifications than
it would to make the expenditure spread
over a number of years. If the coun-
try is going to have constant recur-
renee of the alarms because it is not
properly provided with seacoast de-
lenses, the sooner the cause Of these
constantly recurring alarms is re-
moved the better Never put off till
tomorrow what can be done today

FITzHUGH LEE.


The suggestion has been made that
tie president bel given authority to ap-
poirt brigadier general from civil life,
ard that he tender the appointment to
Consul General Lee. The Atlanta jour-
r.al hopes the suggestion VIII be favor

a graceful and proper recognition of
General Lees services. The Journal

Lee has been so admirable that he is
today ore of the most popular men in
the country. and that he has won the
respect of the Spanish people and the
Spanish authorities: al of which is
true. Brt az The bottom of the Jour-
r.al's plea is sentiment. 1t says:
One OF the eonfederacy's most gallant
soldiers-a Lee o. the Lecs-his aD-
ointment would be hailed by the
southern people as a r5futation of the
charge OF secticoaiism which is ever

who could better lead the American SOL
diers than Fitzhugh Lee?
His knowledge OF the people, of the
language they speak. OF the country it

than any other soldier connected today
with the regular army of the United
States.
Let it be Brigadier General Fitzhugh
Lee. u. S. a. and indeed the last trace
of Maso-'s and Dixons' line, even in
printers ink. will forever disappear.
There is no likelihood that there will
be any action on this suggestion about
creating another bIigadier general, but
if another ore were created, the ap-
rointment would very naturally and
very properly be given to some colonel
of the regular army. In the event of

WAR ont THE OUTLAWS BEGUN.

1t appears there were not three men,
bers of the Robbers Rooyt gang killed
! in Wyoming, as the bulletins Monday
night first announced; and it further
appears that the one who was, was
deliberately lynched and not killed
. while resisting the officers. The lynch
ing occurred in Wyoming and not in
Utah. This is a matter of congratula-
ton to the people of this state though
it is matter to be deplored and con-
demned Of itself. The lawlessness of
the man Bennett did not justify the
lawlessness of those who lynched him.
The gang of which Bennett was a
member has been depredating in Utah,
Colorado and Wyoming for a long
while, but not one of these states but
is perfectly able to punish those who
commit depredations within their Dor
ders. 1t is an easy matter to under
stand how outraged and wronged the
people who reside in the vicinity Of
this band of lawless and wicked men
feel; many of them have been their
victims, but that fact does not justify
them in taking the law into their own
hands. In the present instance the
people of Wyoming are concerned and
not those of Utah.
The people who live where these des-
peradoes operate, no matter III which
state they may reside, have the sympa-
thy of all the people of their several
states. Bat they should have more;
they should have their aid in suppress
ing them. For years Utah has suffered
from their operations, but this year
should see them all driven from the
state, landed behind prison bars or an
