WAR still SC. ms q. for off as ever, and

WAR still SC, ms as for off as ever, and no definite conclusion will be arrived at in congress before the last of the week. While it is true the senate has done its duty by passing the resolutions acknowl. edging the independence of Cuba, and that Spain withdraw it's troops from the island. This resolution has to he acted on in the house and then receive the sanction of the president before it can become law. The outcome of the bill in the house cannot be told at present, while the president has, according to press reports, already stated that he will veto any measure that contains the acknowledgement of the independence of the Cuban republic. Should the house pass the bill and president veto it then it would have to be taken back to the senate and house and passed by q two-thirds majority which, judging from the vote in the senate, cannot be accom- plished. This will throw the matter back to its starting point, and the lives of 266 of our brave American sailors will still so unavenged.

TIE currency bill prepared by the sub committee of the committee on banking and currency, which was this week introduced in the house, follows largely the recommendat ions of tho so- called "monetary conferences" which met at Indianapolis, as to the establish ment of an issue and redemption diyis- ion m the treasury department, the sub stitutions for present legal tender notes of an issue to be known as reserve notes and amendments to the national bank ing laws. This bill has just about as much chance to become law during the life of the present congress as Spain hus 70 whip the United States. The redemption feature of the bill strikes the lav reader as being absurd. It pro- vides that the legal tender notes and standard silver dollars shall be re. deemed in gold, upon demand, and then expressly stipulates that silver certif. cutcs shall not be redeemed in gold. Just refer to the face of q silver certiti- cate and you will see that they repre- sent silver dollars, deposited with the United States treasury and ptyable upon demand to the holder of the cer. tifcate. Therefore, should this wise bill become law, all the holders of silver certificates who wished them re. deemed in gold would have to do would be to first demand standard silver dol lars for them and then get the gold for the silver dollars. A measure contain ing clause so manifestly absurd is not calculated to inspire public confidence in other sections, where the absuIdities could not be so readily discovered be- fore they were put into practical opera- tion; but come to think, the Indianapo. lis convention that fathered these ideas, did not inspire any confidence outside of the bondholders and bankers who footed it's bills.

THE supreme cause for the United States to act against Spain is the mnr- dering of 260 of our officers and sailors aboard the battleship Maine, anchored in the harbor of Havana. Avenge this dastardly and heinous crime and Cuba will be free. Lives cannot be purchased with money considerations, buL they can be avenged with blood. The patriots of America have rendered tha. verdict, and it remains for the sentence to be carried out, severe as it may be.

TIE community does not lose any thing by supporting a newspaper. It not only acts as chain to hold the common interests of the community to- gether, but also as magnet, drawing capital and investment from those look ing for places in which to locate. You may not see the many returns from newspaper support, but they will surely come. The home paper is for the mutual benefit of all home people {; why then not all support it by subscrib- ing? To those who do show their good sense by investing money in this, we will gay that they might go further by encouraging others to support this home institution by patronizins those who do likewise. When you see merchants advertisement in your paper you can rest assured that he is man you can patronize with good results, for he is the man who has homo interests at heart and is not ashamed of hi wares :. A merchant who has not sense enough to know that advertising pays is SO far behind the times that man would get better results by doing business with a corpse. The business men of Bisbee should wake up, too, from their slum- bers and put their wares before the people if they wish to have better times. Fellow-citizens, wake up from your fos- silized and antideluvian condition and make this place of prosperity. Crawl out of your shell of selfshness, and by working for the interests of your fellow
 men as we'll as your own make your little city place of contentment and prosperity, and not dissatisfaction and selfishness, and do not howl hard times when the fault is your own.

The books of the Company will be open for in- spection at all times, and at the annual meeting of the Company, full and exhaustive reports will be submitted to the stockholders, for their approval.
