SPANS PROTESTING MEMORANDUM
Against Losing Philippines. McKioIey's Refer
ence TO Maine and Other Things.

Madrid, Dec. 1.-THE government
entirely approves the memorandum of
protest against the action of the United
States commissioners filed by Senior
Montero Rios at Paris.
FL Liberal says: The Paris negoti-
atoms offer a far sadder spectacle than
-epatrated soldiers, deplorable as the
condition of the latter is"
The memorandum protests against the
refusal of the Americans to surrender the
securities deposited in the treasures of
Cuba and Porto Rico by private Span
iards. remarking that never has a civil
lized nation committed such an act OF
violence"
Secondly it protests against the ul5i-
nahum demanding the Philippines
Third. it protests against the position
in which those Spaniards are placed who
desire to remain in Cuba.
Fourth, 1t protests against the refer
once to the destruction OF the Maine IN
United States Congress. On this point
the memorandum sars: Spain has pro-
posed arbitration. but the United States
refuses TO give her the right which Is
granted to a criminal. namely. the RICH:
of defending himself The Spanish COM
missonecs leave the care of hiking the
responsibility for the explosion to the en-
tire world, which will say whether those
are responsible who desire the truth or
those refusing to seek it,.
The newspapers generally express relief
at the signing of the treaty. The indie
pendent organs, most of the provincial
papers and the Carlst and Republican
journals attack both political parties,
Conservative and Liberal. reproaching
them equally with having brought the
country to the present pass.
The cabinet, 1t is said, will meet the
Cortes intact Senior Sagasta will ask an
Indemnity bill for the cession of the
Philippines. The cabinet will then de-
clare. that as Ii finds itself at crisis. it
cannot admit any debate and Will. there
fore, demand the immediate adoption of
the bill, after which Senior Sagasta will
submit the question of confidence to the
Queen Regent.
Ell Heraldo says the government be-
,ieveS that in the present circumstances
the holders of the Philippine debt will ac-
cept the arrangement arrived at. and
considers that the Cuban bondholders
should demand of the future government
of Cuba a fultillment of the ontract oy
claiming a MORTGAGE on the customs
which guarantee the debt

teachers several institutes were held
last summer and fall, in some of the
western states. the majority of which
the superintendent conducted, inaugu-
rating a number of innovations, chief
among which were the requiring of
actual work to be done in the teaching
OF sewing, cooking. housework, etc. Car
ments We're made by the teachers who
are required to teach sewing in the

SHOWN how to take the ration list pro-
vlded by the government and prepare a
wholesome and varied bill of fare for
every day in the week, a physicians
conference was held and nurses in
structed how to use small remedies.
Manual training was also strongly EN-
phasized.
The government has not yet adopted
compulsory measures for the education
CT the Indian children and the fact is
that dark skinned sons of the forest do
not very readily take to education. In
the reservations schools the work is
divided between the hours of study and
industrial duties. The girls are taught,
aside from the common school
branches, to become good housekeepers
and the boys farming and the ordi-
nary industrial arts.
Besides these reservations schools
others teach the higher branches of the
scientific trades. These schools have
graduated large number of pupils, of
whom but comparatively few have re-
turned to their old manner of living,
while great majority are making good
citizens.
There is still, however, room for
more improvement and the aims of the
young Indian must be made higher; ne
must be brought into touch and kept in
contact with our civilization"
Industrial education and the neces
sity of furnishing employment for the
Indian student upon his return from
school are dwelt upon. Compulsory
education and more attention to man
ual training are strongly urged.

The highest income received during
any one year by the state land board
of which Governor Osborne was presi-
dent, was about $12,97 But the in.
come Of the state has been steadily and
rapidly increasing from the commence
ment of Governor Richards admins
tration until during the last fiscal
year. 1897, the amount received by the
state board for said year, from the
leasing Of public lands to settlers, in
this state amounted to $50, 9s2.S9. In
addition to this, the state land board
has secured from the United States
government, without additional legis-
lation, as lieu lands, 341,77 acres, for
which application for leases have al
ready been filed which will bring to
the state a further additional annual
revenue Of $17,0 While Governor
Osborne was chief executive OF the state
Of Wyoming the annual expenses Of
the county government to the tax pay
ers of Wyoming amounted to the vast
sum OF $3.50. 9O9.51. As a result Of wise
legislation and a republican governor,
and as a result Of the thorough and
painstaking work OF the present state
examiner. and heartily c~o-operated in
by the various district Judges and
county commissioners throughout the
state. although the number Of counties
has been increased, the expenses OF
county government have been decreas-
ed to 1920, O9S. 93, or a saving OF over
$4,000 per annum to the taxpayers Of
Wyoming.
Attention is called to the fact that
our last republican legislature passed
acts in reference to fees to be COL
lected from corporations incorporated
under the laws OF this state and from
insurance companies whereby the
annual income Of the state has been
increased over a year Of the Osborne
administration from $4,000 to the sum
Of SIS, 900. These are but instances of
the progress made by the state and
and the advantages gained to the tax
payers and to the people through the
republican legislation and aminis-
tration.
We censure and condemn John E.
Osborne, Wyomtng's representative in
congress, for neglect Of duty In leaving
his sea and coming home to attend to
private business at the most critical
period in the history Of the nation,
causing Wyoming to be the only SOW
erign state that did not respond to
roll call in the house of representatives
On the adoption of the declaration of
war for humanity and the maintenance
of national honor.
Knowing that the republican party
is a paryt that fulflls its pledges and
always adheres to those principles that
yield the greatest good to the greatest
number, we fear no criticism, but sub
NIT our record to the most scrutinizing
investigation.
