II Senator shelby NJ. Cullom is not
careful he will get himself disliked by
the Republican syndicates. He has
been rash enough TO express disap-
proval OF the scheme TO purchase Cuba
This cash method OF settling ques-
tions involving the national honor Is
very popular just now with admins
tration newspapers and this fact may
serve as hint that 1t is not unpopular
with the Rd dministration.
Under such circumstances Senator
Cullom shows a good deal Of manly
spirit in refusing to approve the sug-
gestion OF bonding Cuba for $500 o0O,-
600 and thus putting premium on
murder, cruelty and bsrbsrity as prac
tieed by Spain,
There would bS difficulty in believ-
ing that such plan could be proposed
in this hour OF peril to the nations
honor, OF grief and rage over the
assassination of 26O American sailors,
Of righteous indignation aroused by
insults from Spanish officials. we're 1t
not reported in the columns Of the ad-
ministration .press.
Dispatches from New York assert
that several gentlemen" Qt is geatiiy-
ing to have the assurance that they
were "gentlemen'D "have agreed TO
raise 5000. 900, 900 TO purchase Cuban
liberty. The plan is that Spain shall
concede the independence OF Cuba and
that Cuba shall pay Spain an indem
nifty to reimburse her In part for the
enormous expenses Of the war by Civ
iug bonds to the mother country and
placing other bonds upon the market. "
Humanity and decency, to say moth
ing OF patriotism, revolt at the sordid
proposition made by these gentle
men,"
No wolder Senator Cullom said;
Amy man. whether a member OF con-
gress or otherwise, who would attempt
to make a dollar out OF such a crisis is
too mean TO live. Men who attempt
to speculate on the cAlamities OF the
7 DOR Cubans or on the blowing up Of
the Maine ought TO be shot"
Senator Cullom is a Republican but
he talks good Democratic doctrine
once in while.

The Washington News says; 1t is q
more noticeable fact than ever before
that formidable opposition to the same
class OF men Is being developed In
every section OF the ULited States
Many good and able aspirsnts for the
peoples suffrage, whose ambition
might under other circumstances be
commended, are being made the un-
conscious instruments to further the
purpose sought to be obtained by those
people who are deeply interested in
the overthrow OF the silver cause
through disorgAnization OF its unified
forces. This object is being pursued
in many instances by aattering the un-
suspecting vanity aud misairecting the
ambition OF many honest men who,
IL they understood the motige that
actuates at this particular time such
undue anxiety for their political ad
vancement, would spurn with loathing
the proposition suggested from such
source IL is by just such tactics that
the money power is seeking to utilize
some unthinking Democrats as the
chief obstacles in preventing the
return to congress Of those men whose
patriotism and experience have fitted
them to successfully cope with the
enemiss of their countrY's freedom.
