II am firmly Of the belief that the
horror in Havana Harbor last night
was not due to accident. / can scarcely
conceive either that it was due to the
treachery of Spanish officials, or was
brought about through their cogni-
zance. However. the situation in Ha-
vana is so critical and the Spanish feel
so keenly what appears to many of
them an affront that the Maine should
have been in the harbor. that it seems
not unlikely the catastrophe was due
to the action of Spanish sympathizers.
That it was not an accident, / feel as

Senator's Mills, of the Committee on
Foreign Relations, expressed the opin-

That our readers may know, not
what we think, but what the
greatest American statesmen and
students think. The LEADER will
from time to time quote them on
the issues before our people. Our
first, is from Col. Bob Ingersoll,
who says: mckinley will be
nominated at St. Louis and have
lots of delegates to spare. The
people associate Mckinley with
protection, and they associate pro-
lection with prosperity. They
think that the hard times were
created by fooling with the tariff,
and they want good times.
They are tired of Cleveland and
Democratic mistakes. They want
Mckinley, and they will have him.
Allison and Reed are good men, the
best kind, and would make excel
lent presidents, but they will have
to wait. l see that Manley and
Quay and Clarkson are whistling
through their graveyards, but it is
no use. Mckinley will beat the
field and have at least 100 delegates
to spare. He is good, square
man, levelheaded, consel vative and
is well versed in practical affairs"

very close to the hearts of the Siletz

"The secretary of the interior,
after an investigation, has sub

Ans.-As there is no difference
