Cuban business men begin to realize
that their prospects fir competition with
American newcomers are not very flat
tering. At late meeting Of this class
the opinion generally prevailed that the
American merchants who will estab-
lish themselves in Cuba will ruin the
local merchants, because of their larger
capital" We fear that the Cubans, like
ourselves, will witness the consumption
of the little fishes by the big ones.

EXPANDING TEE SPOILS SYSTEM

The better class Of newspapers In the
United States take anything but rose
ate view Of our prospects for territorial
expansion in the orient. The greatest
difficulties, as they are pointed out. lie IN
the bad influences that are likely to en-
viron the government Of new territory.
Thus the New York Times says:
The strongest argument against our
taking control Of new territory Is that
the dirty politics which has been so mis-
ch!evous and disgusting at home will
make the good management OF such
new territory very hard. If not impractt-
cable.
And prominent Republican paper Of
Philadelphia. the Telegraph says:
The greatest danger to be feared IN
our starting out upon career OF terri
torial expansion Is a repetition of the
incompeteney, political favoritism, cor
ruption and scandals which have char
acterized the management of the In
dian bureau from the very beginning OF
our history. This danger is one which
should bear full weight in determining
the extent Of our acquisitions in the
Philippines. but 1t is not likely to do 30.

A RooRBAoK.

LAST week screed OF about three
and half columns length was pre-
pared by Topeka lawyer named Aus
tin, who thought TO get little notori
ETY. and advertising out Of II cheaply,
and hanced out 10 all the daily papers
of republican faith, for publication,
with the further purpose Of throwing
some dirt over the brilliant and unsul-
lied record Of Attorney General Boyle.
1t 10 difficult TO comprehend what
charges the article contains, II any,
from a reading of 1t, but the headiines
OF the Topeka Capital and the Hutch
inson News, which seem to be the only
papers that accepted the gracious
offer of copy, say that II charges the
attorney genaral with entering into
collision with the Stock Yards COM
pany not to enforce the law while the
case Is pending IN the higher federal
courts The simple facts are, that
when Judge Foster decided against the
Stock Yards company. II was Of course
acknowledged that the company had
the right to appeal to the higher fed
eral courts. Some arrangements had
to be made regarding the charges Of
the Stock Yards company pending q
final decision from the Supreme Court
So with the advice and consent OF
Judge Foster, it was arranged that
the Stock Yards company should give
rebate checks to shippers for the differ
ence between the actual charges and
amount permitted by the law of last
winter, which are to be Cashed 10 the
shippers when the case Is finally de-
cided, should the law be upheld.
These facts we're announced through
the papers at the time, and no one OK
pressed dissatisfaction. But a cam
paign was not then In progress, and
there was nothing sensational about it.
Shortly after ward 1t was announced
that the company had lowered the
rates to nearly those allowed by the
law.
The Kansas City Journal Is In most
things a journal Of the yellow" order
in State politics. 1t is also one of the
papers that has kept closest tab on the
stock yards litigation. A copy of this
screed was handed to its representa-
tive at Topeka, Sessions, who sent 1t
in. We are informed by a reliable
man who saw the copy after 1t was re
turned without publication, that it had
as a notation a single word expressive
of intense disgust, and Is not prlnta-
able. There Is, however, a moral to
this story. 1t shows how utterly i'm
poverished are the republicans for
campaign material, and how great the
effort to bemean and besmirch the
officers who have offended the corpo-
rations by endeavoring to compel them
to obey the law, something that was
never known Of republican attorney
general In the history of the State.

AN EXAMPLE FOR POOR BOYS,


Ever since the charges have been
made against the incompetence and
cussedness in the war department, the
"me too" and the "Cuckoo" papers
have been defending Secretary Alger.
We we'll remember that a week or two
ago the pious Ed, Hoch of the Marion
Record, printed a defense that was
copied with a flush of triumph into the
other papers, In which it was set forth
that Alger was o poor boy who had
won his way to fame by the hardest,
that he was millionaire Of lavish
charity, and splendid example for
the young American Of one suspender
and a patched anatomy. Well the
New York Sun, which will hardly be
called populistic, gives Ayers war
record as follows:
"In September, 1864, Colonel Alger
and his regiment were in the Shenan-
hoah valley, taking part in Sheridan's
great campaign against Jubal Early.
About the first Of the month Colonel
Alger applied for ten days. leave Of
absence. The application was disap-
proved and returned by his division
commander, General Wesley Merritt
because of the active operations then
in progress. Upon the return Of hit
application for leave disapproved, Col
onel Alger left his regiment and went
to Washington without leave. There
he procured detail on court-martia
duty in that city. This fact was re-
ported to General Merritt, who re-
ported 1t In turn to General Sheridan
who brought the matter to the atten
ton Of the war department, recon
mending that Colonel Alger be dis.
honorably discharged for being absent
without leave, In consequence Of tina
recommendation from Philip Sheridan
Colonel Russell A, Alger was dis
charged from the service on September
20. 1854. The incident terminated BIZ
military career. After the war wa
over he procured in some way th,
brevet Of brigadier general and majo
general Of volunteers"
Appropos Of this cry of his being
worthy example for poor boys, W
might say it would seem that a mai
who's dishonorably discharged from
military service, and afterward mad
head of the war department, is Ger
tainly worthy of being made an exam
pie Of.
