the logical candidate for the presi-
dency of the cooperating silver forces
Cooperation will be encouraged in all
sections. Ex-Representative Towne,
the chairman of the silver Republi-
can national committee, it was de-
cided, should go to Oregon for the pur-
pose of assisting in a cooperation be-
tween the Democrats, silver Republi-
cans and Populists of that State for
the election of two Populist nominees
for Congress. The plan of co-opera-
ton contemplates that where seats in
either house of Congress are now held
by silver man in either of the three
parties the united assistance Of the
three bodies shall be given to elect to
that seat man Of the same party as
the one now holding it.

lions sent to Havana to share with us,
so remote and inaccessible in trans
porting supplies. In view OF these
contributions like yours, in money,
will aid in saving thousands who must
die without sustenance and medicine
Immediately furnished. For instance,
this remittance from the generous en-
ployes in your department will prove
more beneficial than ten times the sum
thirty days hence.
Il have certificates signed by the au-
thorities of the principal cities and
towns in my Sagua la Grande zone
alone showing that my estimate OF
$4,000 perishing souls was under, rath-
er than over, the mark.
ITO my mind and to all Christian
people there is but solely one issue
in this Cuban question, viz: Destitu-
ton and starvation. The status quo
is as when you left, save the destitu-
ton growing and the death rate in
creasing hourly.
81 have met the authorities, selected
and named a relief committee, COM
posed of women as well as men, who
will distribute all contributions receiv-
ed and render needed relief to all the
destitute.
Say to the generous people OF
America, who have never turned deaf
ear to the cry of the distressed, wheth-
er at home or in foreign land, to
send us food medicine and clothing for
the sick"
Mr. Russell says that any contribu-
tons of money may safely be sent to
United States Consul Walter B. Walk
er, OF Sagua la Grande, Cuba.
AS money can be transmitted with
greater certainty and prOmptness to
that particular region, he advises send
ing New York drafts rather than
food supplies, which can be purchased
there.

Pertinent Press Comments.
GOOD ADVICE.
Chronicle.

Chicago Chronicle.
1t has become a pretty generally ac-
copied maxim that the government
governs best which governs least. Con-
slant interference with the affairs of
the citizen, either in aid or in restraint,
is not the purpose for which a govern
ment exists. Therefore the PROPOSE
ton to establish a Federal department
of commence and industry will not
commend itself to those who believe
that we have gone too far in that direc-
ton already. The creation of the De-
partment of Agriculture established q
bad PRECEDENT precedent which un-
doubtedly has led to the present de-
mand for a new department. That
granted there will be further demands
The farmers and merchants being spe-
cially represented in the cabinet other
interests will demand representation
which cannot reasonably be refused
The doctors and the lawyers, the black
smiths and the bricklayers will all
have an equitable claim upon cabinet
portfolio. The thing to do is to stop
where we are. Commerce and industry
will get along very well if they are let
alone. Let us stop coddling particular
industries and get down to business.

Special to the Register.
Washington, February 6.-Senator
Hughes, the new postmaster at Hunt
ington, while here the past few days,
filing his bond and otherwise arrang-
ing with the department to take
charge of his Office, also improved the
opportunity to hold conference with
Judge Warren Miller with view to
determining whether the judge would
be a candidate for denomination this
year or would step aside and allow
Senator Hughes to jump in and see
if he couldn't get the nomination for
Congress from the Republicans of the
Fourth district. But Judge Miller was
not ready to say whether or not he
the hustling young senator. had to go
home uncertain about his future, fur
Their than that he will be the next post
master of his town and can hang on
to that job for four years if nothing
better turns up. 1t is not impossible
that Hughes may decide to go in for
the congressional nomination without
regard to the intentions of Judge Mil
Ter, though when he left here for home
the indications were that he would
stick to the postmastership and let
Congress go. He will take charge OF
the Huntington Office about the 18th
of the month.

Isn't it pity that we cannot occa-
sionally receive some intlmation Of
dignity or grace or nobility of culture
as characterizing the society Of the
country's leading city? That, instead,
we are treated but to unsayory divorce
stories, scandalous ARRAYS between
husbands and lovers in wives bed

stomach dance, entertainments where
"funny" songs are song before young
girls? Is this the best account Anne 4

Philadelphia Times
Our Congressional LIMOGES are pure
1y rhetorical. They breathe out threat
ening and slaughter in long speeches
made to tickle the ears of their con-
stituents, but as to going to war or
voting money to prepare for war, they
will do nothing Of the sort. No level
headed modern Congressman would
think of scaling down appropriations
that can be expended in the districts
to waste money in preparing for war
that is never likely to come. With a
deficit in the treasury the average Con-
gresham will roar as gently as a
sucking dove while voting on war APP
propriations, all Of which leads TO the
conclusion that there may be some
merit in . deficit producing revenue
bill after all.

CABINET OFFICERS ENOUGH.

Louisville Courier-Jourral.
The cabinet is large enough. Even
as it is, it is often difficult TO main
tain harmony among all its members
and the President himself. 1t is alike
impracticable and undesirable to give
every sort OF private business represen-
tation in the cabinet. and since all
cannot be represented there the safe
rule is to confne aits membership to
those who are absolutely needed for
the transaction of public business.

TEN-CENT COTTON GONE.

Atlanta Journal.
1t is unreasonable to expect that we
shall ever see ten cent cotton as a
permanent thing under any conditions.
The cost of cotton production has been
greatly reduced in recent years, the
average yield per acre has been in
creased and the by-products of cotton
have become very valuable. These
conditions give a different meaning to
a low price for cotton from what it
once did.

FEDERAL JUDGESHIP
ALREADY THIRTEEN APPLICANTS
FOR THE PLACE.
but other Candidates Are COM
bined Against Him.

Dallas, Texas. February S.-The contest
for the extra Federal judgcship Of the
northern district of Texas is growing very
warm. To date there are thirteen april
cants for the place, as follows: Lock Me-
Daniel and Waller 7. Burns of Houston;
NJ. l.. Crawford. Frank Reeves, c. w. Star
ling, j. NJ, Mccormick, Charles I. Evans
and Eugene Marshall OF Dallas; c, w.
Ogden and G. II. Noonan OF San Antonio:
L. X. Meek of Fort Worth; j. K. Burnett
of Galveston, and L. c. Alexander of Waco.
OF these Messrs. Crawford, Reeves and
Alexanderare gold standard democrats. Ev-
ans was democrat until the campaign OF
1896. He and Eugene Marshall are the
latest additions 10 the ranks OF the seekers
after the ern.lne OF the Federal Judiciary.
Chairman Green OF the republican State
committee is supporting Ogden. 1t is sup
posed that. in case Ogden can not be land
ed, he will lend his assistance to Alexander
Congressman Hawley is expected TO push
the claims of his fellow Galvestonian, Mr..
Burnett. Mr.. Meek, who is walking
iteration of the truth of that Old saying.
There's nothing in a name, claims 10
be the choice OF Abner Mckinley, with
whom he slept several times. and conf
IDENTIFY expects Brother AbDer to insist upon
the appointment going TO his Fort Worth
friend. He also claims to nave the IN
dorsement of the entire Iowa congressional
delegation. Meek's opponents have COM
bined against him and hope TO offset the
presidential brothers influence. They have
secured copies OF resolutions adopted by
the bar of Fort Worth in 1895 deploring the
removal of Meek to New York. They say
Neck is not even citizen OF the state.
The above mentioned resolutions have been
sent to Washington.
In this connection it may be said that
to MIR. Meek and his friends is due all the
agitation for the appointment OF Judge
to sit for John p. Rector, who has been
incapacitated for about two years. Meek's
Texas friends started the excitement In the
district, and friend OF Meek introduced
the bill In congress. He undoubtedly has
strong backing. but, as related before. his
opponents are Joined In working agains.
HIM and may cause his defeat,
Eugene Marshall, the last asDirant 10
enter the contest was United States district
attorney under Harrison. He was Green's
right bower till he and the tate chairman
fell ont Marshall and Hawley are fast
friends. and should Burnett fall to come
under the wire the Tenth district congress-
man will in all probability urge Marshall's
appointment. Marshall has entered the race
with all his characteristics energy and
shrewdness He is as smooth as an alder
man and as diplomatic us a prime min
lister. He can rally host OF powerful IN
fiUances. He says he never got left in his
life and that he doesn't expect his pres
ent aspiration to prove an exception TO tho
rule.
