Judge Mnsmore Is wull acquainted with

Spanish Government was not party, he
believes the Snanlards win declare war be-

THE Spanish diplomats" continued the
judge, know the advantage the United
States would have over Spain, and would
regret tC sec war declared between the two
countries.
Their environments arc such, however
that they dare not express themselves to
this effect, rs the spanish masses, who be-

the United States, would brook no such
expression from the diplomats, and would
retire the latter to private life in shor

Knowing this, tho diplomats will DO

There has never been political
campaign that equalled in import
ance that OF the one to be fought this
fall. The Republican party, backed
by the money power of this country
and Europe, is alert and aggressive.
Flushed with the victory of two years
ago, ii will seek by every means ia its
power to maintain its supremacy.
Democrats must be up and doing
They must wage an unceasing war
upon their enemies. In no better and
more effective way can this be done
than by the circulation of good, sound
Democratic newspapers. The pub
Usher of the Chicago Dispatch, the
Great national Democratic weekly,
i'll send TO every new subscriber for
three months copy of the Chicago
Dispatch. If you are not already
taking the great political weekly, send
in ten cents at once and receive the
great paper during the coming cam
paigD. You should not only do this
yourself, but you should Undue all
your friends to join with you BY a
little effort You can easily raise Z NIB

WAGNER'S METHOD.
when Possessed with n Poetic Idea,
He Wrote 1t In Music.


{" In one of his writings Wagner tells
MS that he never felt any musical in
SEPARATION unless a dramatic idea had
taken complete possession of him, F"
writes Houston Stewart Chamberlain
on How Richard Wagner Wrote His
Operas 4" in The Ladies' Home Journal
"When this was the case, the different
personages would, one after another,
obtrude upon his fancy. gaining grad
ually in bodily consistency Then, all
of sudden, in the dusk of evening, one
of these creatures of his fancy would
rise up before him, gazing at him with
eyes wide open. Fascinated and almost
trembling, Wagner would remain with
eyes fixed on those of his guest from
dreamland. But, 10, the shadows lips
tremble and open What issues from
them is neither words nor song. 1t is q
superhuman language, but the poet I'M
derstands it, and it remains ringing in
his ears when the apparition has van
ished. This is the precise moment of in
SEPARATION. All that follows is more or
less mechanical, more or less fortuitous.
Whether work be written out and
completed sooner or later will depend
upon all sorts of circumstances time,
health, etc.
"This, then, is the essential thing to
mber-that Wagner nsver could
compose unless driven to do so by a
poetical idea peremptorily demanding
the language Of music for its full and
adequate expression, and that, once this
poetical and dramatic idea clearly and
permanently migrated in his mind, it
'included'-if may SO say--the music,
which came of itself whenever the au-
thor could find time for the business of
writing out the score"
