"Will I fight him?" Billy Mason spoke
with emphasis intense;
"Will | fight with Alta Villa? Will a
Tom cat climb fence?

across the sea
And teach wholesome lesson to that
polyglot Marquis.

trusty butchers knife,
That Phil Armour's going to send me;

of the fate
That awaits him when l meet him and

Then you will see how Billy fights. | tell
you plainly now

stockyards carve a cow.
With upper cut IL cash him where the
porterhouse locates;
Then I'll stab him in the portion whence
the rib roast emanates;
Then with keen and true precision l will
quickly run him through

And when I've finished with him. effete

How we fight the festive duel in the town

Credit Recorded
Where II Is Due

From the Utica, N. Y, Press.
n n pom no president since Lincoln
Hi have such responsibilities been
IL thrown as upon Mckinley. Grant,
WI Hayes, Garfield, Arthur, Cleveland
and Harrison all had important
matters to determine and questions to de-
eide, but none to be compared with those
which have PRESENTED themselves to this
administration. now only entering uron
its second .ear. The presidential policy
has met with very general approval. The
suggestion is uHaN odable that there Is
throughout the country today greater
feeling of safety and confidence than
there would he had Mr.. Bryan been elect
ed. Without taking into account his
fallacious financial theories, he is a young
man almost without experience, a ready
talker, but not u conservative thinker,
an orator, if you please but not pos
sesscd of the wide knowledge of state
craft, nor the mature judgment essential
in a crisis. No man whose vote helped
put Mckinley where he is has today any
| occasion to regret that preference, and
there are doubtless tens of thousands
who now are glad their ballots did not
elect the nominee of their party. Like
the others they, too, are perfectly satis-
| fled with the present administration.
Throughout these trying times McIin-
ley has borne himself in manly fashion.
He has not been hasty, has not suffered
himself to show excitement, but as many
say, has been the coolest, most self
possessed man in Washington. Nor has
there been any lack of firmness, decision
or courage. Span's request for Lees re-
call had hardly been received before it
was emphatically refused. The president
has taken every wise precaution which
an alert mind and keen Judgment could
suggest. 1t does not appear that he has
| left anything undone which future
events, whatever their character, will in
/ dicate as needed. Under his direction the
country is prepared for an emergency
! which probably will not come, but If it
should the value of readiness can not be
/ Overestimated. It is well enough to give
| public men upon whom great Responsible
! ties are thrust credit for their proper dis
! charge if deserved.
! 1t is gratifying just now to note that
| people and papers of opposing politics are
| very much of one accord and unanimous
| expression in this respect. Mckinley 5
attitude in this affair throughout mas

of the country. He has not been passion

ed to place a saloon next door to a private
residence, or in neighborhcod of homes.
1t Is not done in the aristocratic or
wealthy residential section of the city,
and that class of people are entitled to no

of the accursed traffic which has been
inculcated in the home and the church.
Surely Christian trustees and profess
sors, even in college not amenable to
ecclesiastical authority, should be
ready to consider appeals for the cor
rection of unfavorable conditions in
their institution or in its environments,
whether those appeals come fron
Christian bodies or individuals"
If layman were to express any
comment upon this circular 1t would
be that 1t seems to be unnecessary.
We doubt if there is a college faculty
IN the country which is less anxious TO
Correct unfavorable conditions in its
institution or in its environments than
are the parents who send sons to 1T for
instruction. The contrary assumption
which is the basis of the contemporary
outcry on this subject is obviously far
fetched and hysterical.

Disinterested Testimony.

Writing from New York, Sidney Low,
an influential Englishman, until re-
Gently editor Of the ultra conservative
St. James Gazette imparts to London
ers the following interesting views:
"To an Englishman the feeling of the
Americans about Cuba is inteliigible
enough. What chiefly surprises him is
the patience which has allowed it to
remain dormant 50 long. Reflect on
what our own sentiments and action
would have been if we had at our very
gates a rich, fertile territory which for
years had been a welter of barbarous
anarchy and brutal savagery. We
went wild over the atrocities in the re-
mote recesses of the Armenian hills,
among a people with whom we had no
part or lot; but what if we had an
Armenia in the English channel, if viii
iagcs had been burned and devastated,
women outraged, men shot and bayo-
netted and starved to death, and a
civil war waged in the most revolving
form under our very eyes. There is
| only one answer. We should not have
| endured it. The Spaniard would have
| been cleared out bag and baggage from
Cuba long ago. With a reluctance
| which would have been perfectly genu-
| inc. with the emphatic protestations of
| disinterestedness, which we should
have meant, though nobody would have
| believed us, we should have blockaded
| the island hombarded Havana as we
| H,io IN a q
we are now occupying Egypt, to the
bubbling Indignation and resentment of
| foreign nations, and the inestimable
| benefit of the inhabitants. That is
what would have been done if our Sec
| tton of the AnglO-SaXon race had the
| management of the Cuban question,
| and we cannot be surprised if another
branch of that race are arriving at the
conviction that it is about time that
| they took the settlement of the prob
lem seriously in hand quite apart from
the Maine incident. This opinion has
been ripening in the American mind,
and it might we'll have been expected
to have reached maturity before"
The ST. James Gazette, under Mr..
Lows editorshi p-and, for that matter,
| before and since-said many nasty
things about the United States and
about American diplomacy. No doubt
it would he saying just as mean things
now if the English people were mot
well-informed concerning the pressing
need of Intervention in Cuba. Those
continental journals which deride us
are excusa BILE on the score of ignorance.
They don't know any better. But let
ters such as this from which we have
quoted will do good by conveying to
these French and Austrian and German
iire-eaters e few gllmmering rays of
| common sense.

Colonel Myron w. Parker, of Wash
ington, an eX-commissioner of the dis
trict of Columbia, who visited Cuba in
company with Senator Proctor, brings
back some interesting information con-
cerning the insurgents. He testifies to
their superior discipline and says the
best families in Cuba are represented in
theirranlis. They are poorly clothed and
armed but they control absolutely two
thirds of the island and have the free
dom of the remaining third, excepting
the fortified towns. Colonel Parker
credits them with conducting warfare
in much more humane manner than
is characteristic of the Spaniards, and
evidently believes that if they had dip
lomatic recognition, with the resources
this would command, it would soon be
good by TO Spanish sovereignty. Such
recognition is clearly their right and
should not be longer withheld.
