To read the lurid accounts of the Gu
ban war written by Traducer Richard
Harding Davis and other war cores
pondents of like ilk, one might think it
the bloodiest war on record, and all due
to the mismanagement and incompetence
of the commanding general. Yet the
war was short, sharp and decisive and
the victory complete. 1t is doubtful if
any other plan of campaign even II
devised by Richard Harding Davis him
self-could have reached the same result
with as little sacrifice. There were bat
ties in the civil war in which the loss on
either side was greater than our entire
Cuban army, but history has not written
down the military leaders of those days
as failures. 1t will not so class Cen
Shafter.

The republicans who voted against
Wesley j. Thomas can take to them
selves the credit for very nearly defeat
ing one of the cleanest and most capable
candidates ever nominated by the repub-
lican party in Van Buren, county. Such
action on their part was due to their
giving too much faith to the democratic
campaign stories. 1t is always safe for
republican voters to take democratic
stories cat,n grano saLis-or with barrel
of it. for that matter.

II constitutional revision is carried out
in Michigan, we trust it will be along
broad. stable, American lines, free from
all faint of populism, or any other ism
that raight creep in. 1t is certain that
many changes are needed in the state
constitution, but in a sweeping general
revision there is always the danger that
it will be made worse instead of better

THERE is trlk of a special session OF
congress being called very soon after
March 4, when the republicans will be in
control of both houses. Currency legis-
lation is mentioned as probable subject
for the attention of congress. The
Northerner has every confidence that
the president will pursue such course
in the matter as will be for the best in
forests of the country.

What the Elections Show.


The result of the elections all over the
country gives the most conclusive eV-
dence that the people, under the influence
of an era of marvellous prosperity under
republican rule, have not receded
particle from the position taken 10y them
i'm 1896, in favor of sound money ana
protective tariff. Indeed, the fact that
the republicans have won IN TINS oh
wear" contrary to the usual experience
of parties in control of the government
is well-nigh double endorsement OF the
party's policy and principles. While 1t
is likely the democracy will be forced to
fight the minor elections of the next TWO
years on the silver issue, there does not
at present seem to be the slightest possl-
bility of the party entering another
national campaign with 10 to | ana
fiatism as the slogan.
Not only is the party policy endorsed,
but also the magnificent management
of the war with Spain by President
Mckinley and his advisers. The hands
of the president have been upheld by the
people, giving to him every assurance
that he will be maintained in his acts
until final peace is attained
In Michigan, the voters have said in
no uncertain voice, in the reelection OF
Governor Pingree 10y great majority,
with an almost unanimous republican
legislature to back him, that they believe
that the corporations are not paying their
lust share of taxation, and that they
desire a revision of the laws controlling
their taxation along the lines laid down
in the republican platform and in ac-
cordance with the well known opinions
of the governor himself
In this district, the overwhelming
defeat of Mr. Jarvis is the consummation
of the plan of democracy to rid itself OF
his persistent claims for recognition, the
party realizing that the present year
offered them no hope for success, and
hence was most auspicious time for his
>immolation.
In the county, in spite of the fact that
the q rats put in more work ano
spc Laore money than ever before, the
Aolicans have increased their majority
%er that of two years ago, carrying l.
, out of Is towns. This is as encouraging
and satisfactory to the republicans as i
is the contrary to the opposition, and IN
dicates the decay of populism anC
Organism in the county. While the hare
campaign and unfair methods of tn
silverites succeeded in cutting down on
or two majorities on the county ticket
the fact remains that Pingree carried
the county 10y nearly 300 greater majority
and the balence of the state ticket by 10
greater than two years ago, and that wit
much smaller total vote. There
every reason to believe that full vot
i'm the county this year would have give
the republican state ticket plurality {
at least 1000 and several hundred MOI
than that for Mr.. Pingree.
Altogether, the result is very brigf
one for republicanism- and there's L
silver lining to the cloud hanging ovc
the democracy.

Tells an Interestin Story OF How Dogs
Smuggle Tobacco From Gibraltar 70
the Dons
State Game aud Fish Warden Chase
5. Osborn of SAUL Ste. Marie, who re-
Gently returned from four months
tour of Europe, was IN the city yester-
day. Mr.. Osborn was in Spain when
the news Of the destruction of the
Maine was received. The new. spread
with great rapidity, and the satisfaction
of the Dons over the affair was ill-c n
cealed. He says that auti-Amer:can
feeling was noticeable all over the
country.
An interesting story is told 10y the
warden of the dog smugglers on the
neutral ground between Gibral ar and
the Spanish lines. These dogs are
trained to carry tobacco across the strip
of neutral territory. Tobacco is very
cheap in English Gibraltar, and brings
from four to SIX times a. much the
moment it crosses the line. The dogs
arc mongrels of ali sizes. but are very
cunning. Their owners tie to them
from five to ID pounds of tobacco, ac-
cording to the size of the dog, and then
it is the duty of the animals to avoid
the guards and make their way into
Span.
The neutral ground is bounded on
the Spanish side by tight wire fence,
along which is posted line of soldiers.
The soil is sandy, soft and loose In
addition to the soldiers there is pack
Of greyhounds trained to catch the
smugglers, but the latter's instincts
soon taught them to band together for
offensive and defensive operations
against the official cannes.
The smuggler dogs will make fcint
in one direction, then in another, and
thus make matters very interesting for
both the soldiers and their dogs. The
larger smuggler dogs can Jump over
the wire fence, even when handicapped
by their big leads of tobacco, while the
smaller ones get under the fence by
digging. Most of the successful snug.
Cling is done after nightfall 1t is be-
lieved that many of the Spanish guards
are in collision with the owners of the
smuggler dogs, and for this reason do
not shoot TO kill.
