THE CUBANS SULK

In the light of the experience of Shalter's army with the Gubans and the ugly disposition of the insurgents since the occupation of Santiago, t will be well If General Garcia carries out his threat to withdraw to the hills.
 At best the indolent and obsti- nate Cubans have been nG bet ter than q burden to American oper- ations. They have been well fed and are, therefore, in good shape for prolonged siesta in some out-of-the-way place By the time they are hungry again matters will have adjusted them selves iii the conquered province and the city of Santiago, and the tattered patriots will come to town in q more traetable frame ot mind.
 There is 10 likelihood that they will turn their arms against the Americans, and if they must shed blood there are plenty of Span iards at folguin and other points ill the interior to occupy their attention The best argu- ment with the Cuban IS the pros pect of plentiful food and endless leisure, which American protec- ton guarantees him If left to his own love of ease and the promptings of his attenuatcd stomach, he will gradually adapt himself to tie neW conditions and become in time, if not q model citizen, at least q harm less and somewhat ornamental member of the regehefated com munity.
 The Cuban is necessarily in 2 veryreceptive frame of mind aud body at this time The seat ot reason with hita, as with the Spaniard, has been transferred to the abdomen lie has had 2 vertigo from too many consecu tive square meals. He wili bt found amenable to reason after a few weeks diet of sugar cane and prairie dog has aecentuate6 the advantages of keeping of the right side of the American connissary.-Repuhlic.
 And thus one of the grear American dailies discourseS up on the people whom our soldier. went out to save. We had al been led to believe that the entir, Cuban population were as inno cent as lambs and all their suffer ings were simply the result o Spanish oppression and deyiltry but now ii seems that they are : bad lot from bitter creek, ano before the war is over they may be popping away, from thl brush, at our own army How ever, there is some comfort II the fact that they are worthless for it will give an excuse for oul sugar barons to own and oper ate Cjba

According to an opinion deliver ed by the attorney-general, county examiners who fail to attend coun- ty normals forfeit their license the same as an ordinary teacher, and the state superintendent of bhcinstruction may notify coun- judges who appointed such exami- ners 90 that new examiners may be appointed This is applying the law without fear or favor Here tofore examiners have required ev- cry teacher to attend on pain of revocation, and now the exami- aers nusttakc their own medicine. ,.The Democrat has upheld the law requiring teachers to attend and we believe that il ought to ap- ply with equal force 10 county ex- aminers.
