THE DESPERATION OF DISSOLUTION

THE DESPERATION OF DISSOLUTION
Between the crown, the heredity and
corrupt governing factions. the mill
tary and the adherents of the aspirant
to the throne, the people Of Spain are
now PROSTATE in despair. Her sons by
the thousands are being ruthIessly sac
rificed by the government in utter des-
peration- Life, treasure, nor property
are counted as factors worthy Of con-
sideration. No contingency other than
the impossible one Of surrender upon
the part of the United States can pre-
serve that nation from sure destruc-
ton. Change Of cabinets transfers of
the crown nor any other human effort
can save that historic land from revo-
luton. To sue for peace upon the one
hand, or to carry on the war. upon the
other are neither possible. A concert
ed action Of the powers might force
her many factions into concessions
such as would preserve that peoples
nationality. but there is no power
within Spain to save herself. The hap
piest solution for her subjects and for
their future would be her complete
conquest by the American nation.

TROUBLE FOR WILHELM.

Kaiser Wilhelm, with his half-million
standing army and his out of date war
ships, and his two million of Social
istic voters who sat down on his ambi-
tons at the last election, finds still
some consolation in his rotter-borough
gerrymandered. Instead Of seeking
opportunities to menace and insult the
greatest and most victorious naval
power on earth, he might better turn
his attention to his own bailiwick. Ber-
lin is divided into six election districts
for representation in the imperial par
lament The number of voters in each
district IS as follows: First, 1886; sec
ond .76, 1877; third, 3O,S52; fourth. 96,942;
fifth, 3l,649, and sixth, 1925. This di-
vision Of voters would hardly seem
fair to an American and raises the
suggestion that an equalization of dis
tricts ought to be made. Why the
$4,000 voters of the first district should
have an equal representation in parlia-
ment to the $4,000 voters Of the sixth
district does not appear upon the sur
face. 1t is said, however, that the
voters of the sixth district are COM
posed chiefly of Socialists and for that
reason have been punched together
Evidently Kaiser Wilhelms imperial
government believes in the rotten-bor-
ough system provided that the rotten
boroughs are represented by Conserva-
tives. The Kaiser's ministers have also
studied the art of gerrymandering. This
condition Of affairs can not last forever,
where the voter in one district is as
powerful as seven voters of another
district. Kaiser Wilhelm should apply
his powerful mind to the solution Of
this local question.

THE FRIENDS CRY FOR PEACE.

The Society Of Friends Of Great Brit
ain, in their yearly assembly meeting,
have sent out a circular letter to all
lovers Of peace IN the United States, a
copy Of which has been transmitted to
the editors Of all the more prominent
papers of this country. Commencing
with a quotation from letter Of Wilt
lam PENIS. the society appeals under
tween the United States and Spain for
a rally beneath the banner OF that
Prince Of Peace in the name Of love Of
country. the equal rights of humanity
and in the name of the King of Kings
The circular letter, which is long, adj
mits the trials, difficulties and the
claims Of conscience which precipitated
the present clash of arms in the name
OF humanity; still begs for speedy
peace. Recognizing the efforts made
by the United States for the preserva-
ton Of peace and the redress Of wrongs
for the suffering Cubans under a bar
barous rule, the letter goes on to say:
As citizens ~ Great Britain we in

knowledge with humiliation that this
nation has sinned over and over again
in relying upon might rather than right
for the accomplishment of its purposes.
but as we have urged upon our govern
ment that there are better ways of set
Ting disputes than the barbarous
methods of trial by battle. so with con-
fdence we desire your encouragement
in the appeals which you also may
make.
Mad rivalry over ornaments in Eu-
rope is impoverishing and embittering
the peoples. and spreading jealousy
and misttust between nations. Under
it the moral forces which alone can
bring health and strength to commune
ties are arrested, and seem TO be en-
dangered. Our late rsvered fellow
member, John Bright. once pointed out
as in striking contrast 10 the oppres-
sion engendered by the ornaments Of
the Old World, the grand experiment.

America, where he beheld many mill

without great debt and withoat great
taxes" We long. not only for your
sakes. but for the sake Of our common
humanity, that such a grand expert
ment may not be abandoned: but that.
on the contrary, 1t may be carried for
ward with ever-increasing courage and
faith
we earnestly desire that the ties Of
kinship and mutual goodwill between
your people and ours may erow and
strengthen; that the two nations may
mutually agree to refer any disputes
arising hereafter between them TO the
decision OF some carefully appointed
judicial tribunal; and that by so do
ing they may together lead the way
for the permanent establishment Of a
system providing for appeals 10 jus

1t is our earnest prayer that by the
generous restraint Of conscious
strength there may be IN your great
country a readiness to END the present

The Kansas Campaign.

Topeka Capital: While In the city yes
| terday Morton Aibaugh. chairman Of the
Republican state central committee was
! asked regarding the present political sat.
uation in Kansas This is a Republican
year in Kansas; the drift of public senti-
rnent Is al toward the Republican party,
he replied Asked upon what his faith
was based. he stated:
! Since 1896 the Republican party, which
! won in the nation, has kept every pledge
made the people; the Populists. who WOE
/ in this state. have repudlaIed every one
they made 10 secure their election. The
people believe that platform pledges
should be sacredly kept and will not sus-
tain any party that falls 20 do 1t.
In 1896 the Populists declared that bet
ter times could not come under Repub-
lican policies Every farmer who now
gets more for his wheat. his corn, his
hogs ard his cattle, than he did then.
knows they did not tell him the truth
and as result the heaviest Popuhst
losses will be in the rural districts. The
farmers Of Kansas are tn'6lii@tnt and
appreciate a gooI thing wheI- they are
enJo--ing r.
The business men know by their in
creased business that times have improv-
ed. AS a rue, they have been Republic
ans heretofore. but they Will be moro &C.
tive n ther efforts for party success than
n previous years.
''As 10 national questions. the people Of
Kansas are with Mckinley. They approve
OF every step he has taken in the conduct
of the war. They have been disappointed
and chagrined at members Of congress
from this state who have handicapped his
efforta to bring it to speedy and sue
cessful close. They Will insist that every
member elected this fall be in perfect
harmony with him on this question or any
other that may be the outgrowth Of It.
They have contrasted the broad manner
in which the president has organized ana
equipped the soldiers with the narrow par
tisan methods employed in this state, and
they viii rise above party in commenting
the one and condemning the other"
VIII the Populist management Of state
affairs and the reported corruptions in the
legislature and the state house figure in
the campaign" was asked.
"Of that do not care to speak" Chair
man Albaugh said. They have already
told enough on each other to disgust de-
cent people and they probably would not
stop the telling if We should try ID per
suade them to.
The Republicans are awake. active ard
exceedingly in earnest while the Popu-
lists are disappointed, disorganized and
quarreling among themselves, and a de-
csive Republican victory will be the re-
guilt

would count. But there is a heap of diff
erence in conditions between Kentucky

states voters reversed themselves because
conditions in their respective parties were

democrat has no place. His convictions
are suppressed in a fool desire to help
few fellows to office. Lots of democrats
will vote the straight republican ticket.
