THE MAINE
BLEW UP
TERRIBLE ACCIDEN T
Spanish Treachery is Strongly
suspected.

pPO~tSNs
Havana, Feb. I5.-At a quarter
10 10 O'Clock this evening terrible
explosion took place on board the
United States battle-ship Maine, in
Havana harbor. Many were killed
or wounded.
AS yet the cause of the explosion
is not apparent. The wounded
sailors of the Maine are unable to
explain it. 1t is believed that the
battle-ship totally destroyed. The
explosion shook the whole city.
The windows were broken in all
the houses. The correspondent of
the Associeted Press says he has
conversed with several of the woun-
ded sailors, and understands from
them that the explosion took place
while they were asleep, SO they can
give no particulars as to the cause.
The widest CONSERVATION pre-
walls in Havana. The wharvesAre
crowded with thousands of people.
1t is believed the explosion occurred
in small powder magazine.
Washington, Feb. 16.-After a
day of intense excitement at the
navy department and elsewhere,
growing out of the destruction of
the battle-ship Maine in Havana
harbor last night, the situation
tonight, after the exchange of a
number of cablegrams between
Washington and Havana, can be
summed up in the words of Secre-
tary Long, who, when asked as he
was about to depart for the day, if
he had reason to suspect that the
disaster was the work of an enemy,
replied:
81 do not; in that l am influenced
by the fact that Captin Sigsbee has
not yet reported to the navy de-
partment on the cause. He is evil
IDENTIFY waiting to write full report.
So long as he does not express him
self, l certainly cannot. should
think from the indications, how.
ever, that there was an accident
that the magazine exploded. How
that came about J. do not know.
For the present. at least. no other
warship will be sent to Havana"
The steamship O!ivette arrived
here tonight with large number
of wounded and many other survi-
vors of the Maine disaster. The
officers were, as rule, reticent,
and followed in line with chief, Sigs-
bee, in saying that the cause of the
explosion could only be ascertained
by divers, but many of the sailors
were outspoken in their declaration
of belief that the explosion was a
deep-laid plot of the Spaniards.
They are greatly incensed against
the Havana people, who have
shown them small courtesy, who
looked upon their presence as
national affront, and who have pub
lished anonymous circulars cap
toned "Down With Americans!"
They believe that the authors of
such expressed cowardly hatred
would hesitate at no terrible ven
geance, such as the blowing up of
the Maine. These sailors, acquain-
ted with the drills, discipline and
ensemble of a man-o-war, pooh
pooh the idea Of an accident.

dent saw Purser benson, OF the
Olivette, who gave the following

Tux subject OF uniforms aad cloth
ing suitab to the health and comfort
OF our soldiers in the tropics is engag.
ing the attention OF the government
and is bothering the war department
more than little. The department
has ordered uniforms made ont OF can
vass, a rough fabric, which will not
only wear well but is supposed to be
;ool So far as durability enters into
the consideration there is no doubt but
that the idea is correct. but the expe-
rience OF all who have lived in the
tropics and sub tropics know that un-
til one has resided there long enough
TO become thoroughly acclimated there
is nc fabric so cool and suitable as
flannel. Indeed it is the only material
save linen, as shown by experience,
that meets in the fullest sense the con
ditions of those climates, and all for
eigners who have tested the question
by actual residence in the tropics will
bear testimony to the fact that OF all
the fabrics worn as clothing canvass
is the hottest and therefore the most
unsuitable for the health OF our sol
diers. Duck and canvass look cool and
one would naturally suppose they
were the most suitable for persons
entering the tropics for long or short
residences, but such is not the case,
and the government will soon find
from experience that they will nave TO
be discarded and a flannel or other
material substituted, or the hospitals
will bear fearful list OF names in
proportion to the armies sent there.
The sooner these facts are recognized
by the government the better it will
be for the safety OF our armies ia Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines.
IL is true that linen fabrics in the
tropics have always been very popular,
and there is no doubt Of the fact that
they are not only healthful to the
wearer but more comfortable and
therefore preferable in many respects
TO all other classes of clothing material
and when one has become thoroughly
aeclimated it probably enters more
largely into use in mems wearing APP
parel than any one fabric. Owing to
its scarcity and cost IL can never be
used by the government in uniforming
our soldiers in these hot far away
countries.

orr POSITION DEFINED.

IL Is necessary that at this time the
Democracy define its position, and or
ganize for the coming campaign. The
DAILY LEADER, as the exponent OF
Democratic principles, has some ideas,
and 1t deems this the hour to speak
them. This journal has never been
accused Of the willy-woggles, and
never can be. We always have a po.
sition, and that position has always
teen fairly for the we'll known and
fondly cherished platforms and tradi.
tions of the party OF jefferson, jack
son and Bryan. We do not propose to
Jet our party perish from the record in
4 fOklahoma.
Who inaagurated the silver issue
1t never appeared in platform as an
exalted and determined issue until the
dauntless souls composing the Chicago
convention put tin the platform there
made-and nominated that typical
American, that incarnation OF yigorou
and attractive young manhood, viii
liam Jennings Bryan that embodi
ment OF the silver cause r. for the Dem
ocratic standard bearer.
The Populists, month later, met in
ST. Louis, and reiterated the silver
platform adopted by the Democracy
But il was not done without special
effort. Populists Of the old line were
there vociferating the oid greenback
ideas Of their party-that the metallic
money WAS not the remedy that the
fat theory was the only certain ma
tional salvation. They adopted the
Democratic silver platform in hopes
OF 4 little advance in the way OF in
creased circulation but 1t did not
change the real belief Of that party
the one on which 1t was born aud nur-
tured-that che gr6enback was the
rightful sovereign money, the nations
salvation in war and relief in peace.
Democracy is not greenbaclS party.
but it is silver party, II went half
way with the Populis's. The Popu-
lists endorsed Mr. Bryan, and they saw
magnificent results from it--a vote the
admiration and JOY Of every true lover
of his country. Having fused on
Bryan, however the Populists asked
everything else in sight.
In Oklahoma they demanded that
the Democracy fuse on Populist for
congress, and that they have ma
jority Of the legislature. The Democ
racy aceeeded. II went out Of business
for the time, seeing in doing SO the
defeat OF that boastful poltog, that
wriggling political speeulator, Flynn.
This was accomplished and this was
all. We sent man without a party
behind him. Mr.. Callahan was help
Jess. He has introduced some forty
I've bills and got one OF theva reported
favorably-and none Of them passed,
even in the house in which he sat.
Suppose we had sent Democrat Z
lie would have gone there with a reg
nAnt, recognized party behind him.
lie would have had that intellectual
colossus, the idol Of Texas and the
whole country, w. J. Bailey, that bril-
liant friend Of Oklahoma, Champ
clark-in fact there would have been
the strength at his command 10 have

And we DO not eriticise Mr.. Callahan

The DAILY LEADER is for fusion.
