The Kansas City Times, as the exponent

Its work for all that benefits the West and
Democracy has gained for 1t thousands OF ad-

the approval of the major portion OF the Peo-

The contemplate practices used in Ohio are
but forerunner of what will be attempted in
the general State elections this fall.
This year important elections will be held
in thirtv-six States and Territories. The
most determined efforts, accompanied by
every conceivable species OF political trickery
and corruption, will be brought forth to de-
feat the Democratic forces. Events of great
importance to the people will transpire, and
a live, up-to-date newspaper will be vital
necessity in every home If one would keep IN
formed on current events. The news service
of The Kansas City Times Is In every sense
complete. In addition to the full Associated

THE NEW AUXILIARY CRUISER ST. PAUL.
LIVELY SCENES AT KEY WEST.

Key West, t'la.. April 14.-Surmise ap-
pears to have settled into conviction here
that the statement attributed to President
Mckinley and partially confirmed ~
Vice President Hobart, many Senators
and General Lee, namely, ''no hostile
shots until after April 15," was true was
made for good reasons, and viii govern
events.
1t seems as though every preparation
possible in tbeway OF, provisions ana
preparation had been made. yet tho docks
are as busy as ever, the harbor at night IS
illuminated with the fash of electric sig
nails, torpedo boats dash to and fro, and
the booming of guns engaged in target
practice is constantly heard during day
light hours
THE naval men here are much interested
in the new gunboats wilmington ara
Helena. Those acquainted with CUBA
recoonize how valuable vessels or this
class would be in such harbors as Matan-
zas Sagua la Grande and in tho Cauto
river.
Light draught, we'll armed and heavily
manned boats are just the thing Tor goed
service.
With the exception OF the report tnat
| four companies of troops are on their way
| here to 40 garrieon duty there is not in
| formation cbtninable regarding the mill
tary plans and no steps appear to have
| beon taken to provide for the transporta-
ton of troops to Cuba. The naya! men
! say they do not know OF any available
| transports in the Gulf and some people
think the insurgents may be relied upon
to conduct the land operations; but those

THE FEELING IN M DRlD.
The Resolution Adopted by Congress
ls Causes More "Indigrat.cn.''

London, April 15.-The Madrid corre-
spondent of the Standard telegraphing
Thursday night, says:
"The dispatches announcing the res
olrtions proposed in the United States
Senate and passed by the House Of Rep
resentatiyes, caused moro indignation
and dispIeasure in Madrid than even the
Presidential neassage. Not 81 single
paper admits the suppcsition that such
pretensions could be tolerated by any
Spanish government desirious OF keeping
in harmony with the unanimous feeling
of the nation.
Home journals like Ell Imparcia], Ell
Liberal and El Heraldo, caution the gov
ernInent against the perlls Of allowln g
public opinion and Spanish par
ties to take the lead in patriotic protests
against such a fagrant assertion OF in
tention to enoroach upon the rights and
the territory of Spain. sq6
HThe declarations OF Marshal Campos
and the equally firm and good declara-
tions Of Senior Silvela lead many to sur
mise that the leader of the army and the
conservative party would not shirk the
responsibilities OF office ii unforeseen
eventualities brought them back to the
councils OF the regency Gn the eve of war
or a settlement of the Cuban question
with President Mckinley.
s'The watchword in official circles is
to remain on the defensive, firmly await
ing the development of President Mckln-
Lewis action and the advance OF Amerl-
can diplomacy. All sensible and far
sighted statesmen in Spain understand
perfectly that the declarations of their
own government and of President Nc
kinlay do not by any means make impos-
sible a peaceful and conoiliatory solr-
ton, if circumstances permit. Besides
they fancy that the European powers,
particularly Austria France and Russia,
may yet have something TO say and do
amicably to check President Mckinley
when once he has entire control Of the
negotiations and the developments of
American policy in his own hands.
.'In this strain of considerations l un-
derstand the Spanish court and several
members of the cabinet do not despair or
share thu pessimistic impressions preva-
lent in tho press and in political circles.
1.-the military newspapers talk very
wildly today demanding war and consider
ing further concession impossible. The
other uapers are mostly angry against
America, but the conservative organs,
like their chief, Senor Siivela, are guard
ed and reserved with the evident inclina-
tion to believe that Spanish, American
and European diplomacy, as we'll as the
action of the Madrid and Washington
governments, may yet avert war, with
out exacting from the Spanish nation the
humiliation of surrender OF it's rights
and territory
