. The. saloon of Henry Schuur, at the corner of Fifteenth and San Bruno ave- nues, was broken into Sunday night and completely :rifled.' Liquors, cigars. cig-. arettes and tobacco worth s4Oo were taken and the only articles left in. the place: were:sthe bar; fixtures and: casks of; whisky .:too large to be removed without the. aid of a wagon. .
 .Mr.| Schuur usually closes his place at 8 o'clock in the evening, and did so on the night of the burglary. His bar. keeper, J oe. Riordan, who sleeps above the saloon, left at the same: time and did not return until II o'clock, when he went directly to his room without: going: into the saloon. :: At | Q clock the: next :moriing the proprietor: opened his place of business ana. found::l looking as if it had been struck by a: young cyclone. Empty bottles and boxes were stFe1Nn about %the floor, the money till was broken open, barrels were: moved from their. -plaees and the shelves stripped of their. contents. :.

There were no wagon tracks leading up to the saloon, and: for this reason Mir.

CONFLICTING OPINIONS.

John J. ingalls, has Topped again. In re-
cent interview, speaking of war, ETC., he said:
"Imperialism is word invented by fools to
impose upon towards. 1t has no place in the
dictionary of Democracy, nor is there any pos
sible condition to which it applies Our mis-
sion in this world has been to disclose to man
his capacity for civilization and self-govern-
ment The timid and apprehensive spirits who
dread the extension of our boundaries forget
that since the thirteen colonies achieved their
independence, by the Louisiana purchase, the
acquisition CT Florida, the war with Mexico, the
Gadsden purchase and the cessicn of Alaska by
Russia, we have enlarged our frontiers without
detrinent to the equality of man; or harm to
the declaration of independence, or injury to
the constitution or dsrespect 10 the memory of
George Washington.
"We have had no war when the party which
conducted it successfully did not control the
politics of the country for the next generation,
and it will be so now. We shall have another
quarter of century of soldier picnics, camp
fires reunions, military candidates, and WIZ
issues. Bryan saw this and he is going to
Cuba, Just as General Pierce and the other
Democratic candidates for the presidency of
that day went to Mexico, The war expendi
lures make money plenty. Times will improve.
The old economic and social questions will dis
appear temporarily, till the next business de-
pressior brings them to the front again. The
next national campaign will be waged on issues
growing out of the war; territorial expansions
the empire of the Pacific; the Nicaragua canal,
an increased army and navy and methods OF
revenue taxation"

ONE of the richest things we have read in
long time is "Saly AIMS Experience" in the
July Cosmopolitan. 1t contains most excellent
areumennt for equal rights. This magazine
also contains much matter that is in uniformity
with the present war times, the articles being
handsomely illustrated. The Autobiography
of Napoleon Boneparte," is continued in this
number. The editorial department is unusually
GOOD. There are also numerous letters from
senators and representatives on ga Question OF
Ethics.n You should buy copy of your
newsdealer--o only 10 cents.

SENATOR HANNA.

Senator Hanna has been heard from. The
Senator talks as glibly as of old. He is not at
least ashamed of having been convicted of
bribery, but, doubtless, if the truth were known,
he is elated. To be boodler is mark of dis
tinction, and perhaps the Senator is contem-
plating another campaign in which some other
boodler will be safely landed in a fat position,
or in a position of trust or honor Secretly,
perhaps the Senator entertains the belief that
boodler will, sometime, secure patent to no.
bility, and will head the first families of the
United States.
The Senator is great man-greater than the
presdent-greater than his party; and just as
good as the men who voted for him.
The Senator announces that the President
will be re-nomnated and elected in 1900. He
also says that the Democrats have no leader and
no policy. He forgets. The Democrats have
a policy; or, at least some of them have; and
surely, after Mr. Hanna sprang, at one bound,
from the ranks of all obscure manufacturer to
the leadership of the great Republican party,
there need be no worry over leadership. After
Mr. Hanna has led, any one might aspire to
leadership, if only he has money.
It is a long time to 1900, and great revolu-
tions have rolled over nations in less time.
Wait and see.

ARMY SHEBANG.

The army has a "canteen" wherein is kept
;utoxicants, and the boys are detailed to run the
shebang. Who is responsible for the canteen
sbebano is not vet known. The temperance
neople went to Mckinley, and Mckinley sent
them to the secretary of war, and the secretary
Of war sent the committee to congress. There
the matter rests-al but the canteen, which IS
IN full blast. The church people are hot as
thew can be- The Kansas City Star gives the
or;non of half dozen Methodist bishops, and
denounce the canteen Through all this up
roar the president is calmly pursuing the even
tenor of his way. The President IS Method
list, and understands the ways OF the clergy OF
that denomination. There Will be lots OF noise'
but no wool--same as when the hog was smear

THE drunkenness and general bad behavior
among the soldiers where 'canteens" are al
lowed has aroused the good people of the
country to such an extent that many "can-
teens' has been abolished, and others will soon
be wiped out. The president, as commander
in-chief of the army, should abolish the ''can-
causing more. trouble than all other evils COM
bined.

SKATERS BLUNDER.

The people of this country supposed that the
American soldiers and the Cuban soldiers
would work together in the war on SPAIN and
that they would rejoice together over the VIC
tories won. 1t seems, however, that there is
disposition on the part of this country to ig-
more the Cubans altogether.
After the fall of Santiago, Skaters army
took possession and raised the stars and stripes
over the city, without notifying General Garcia,
the Cuban commander Garcia wrote touch
ing letter to Shafter Gliding him for his lack
of courtesy. He had not been notified, and
knew nothing about the raising of the flag un-
til after the event. Garcia was right. Further
more, the Cuban flag should have been unfurl-
ed along with the stars and stripes.
Complaints of Skaters lack of courtesy have
reached Washington, and this act of Skaters
has been pronounced serious mistake, some
denouncing it as worse than blunder.
Cuba is Garcia's country-his home. He
has been fighting for years for the freedom OF
his country. Had his army been properly
armed, clothed and fed, he would have defeated
the Spaniards and driven them out long ago.
lie is DIdVC) SuituiSNi SA"AAN, "NN-~
natriot. His career is much like that of our
Revolutionary patriots. His half-fed, half
clothed soldiers remind us of Washington's
army. These Cuban soldiers are sneered at by
,nany Americans, and are called ragged semi
barbarians They are ragged and hungry it is
true but they are not barbarians by any means
Washington's soldiers were ragged and hungry,
too. They marched through the snow bare
footed, and left bloody tracks on their route.
Probably the British red-coats made fun OF our
soldiers as some Americans are making fun of
the brave Cubans.
These Cuban soldiers deserve praise, not CEN
sure. They should be treated as -nen-inen
who have been fighting for years against SPANS
unjust oppression.
To say the least, Shafter has made an mex
cusable blunder, and this nation should make
amends Immediately by placing the Cuban peo-
pie in charge of their own country. Congress
said the Cubans are and of right ought to be
free and independent" President Mckinley,
in his message, said it was to be war for hui
,nantv. and for this country to take possession
Of Cuba would be a crime. True, he seems to
have "coanged his ming but that is no ex-
cuse. His first thought was best.

THE Populists claim to be in command of
the situation in Kansas. They were in COM
mand of the state treasury, but the money all
ran out.-Lawrence World.
"The money all ran OUT because the Popu-
list officials had to pay lot of extravaganza
bills left unpaid by the Republican officials who
preceded the Populists. But you fellows have
not enough honor to tell the truth about the
matter.

Porto Rico Ct do not remember the number),
and there is but one way to manage those peo-
pie and that is by force, just as England man
ages Egypt, South Africa and India to great
extent. Their government over these colonies
is arbitrary, despotic we may call it. They ap-
preciate the necessity of good government and
govern wisely, but for all that it is not a gov
eminent of the people.
do not see how we can initiate that kind of
colonial control without changing our theories
of government. For the territory we have
hitherto taken we have introduced territorial
system of government, territorial legislature,
government of the people. I do not think
that that can be done with these people and
think it will be introducing new system into
our policy"
John Sherman is also opposed to colonial ex-
pansion, and says if we carry out that policy,
we are untrue to our pledges to the Cubans.
Old John is right for once.

IT will not be necessary to send election COM

diers will be waiting in San Francisco, expect

one of the brave but impatient boys will vote to

Since it is through the efforts of Republican

should not vote to keep the Populists IN power.
