If SPANS only hope of raising a
war fund rests upon the voluntary
contributions of a days wages by
every Spaniard, Uncle Sam needn't
have much fear of protracted
struggle. The average wage of Span
iards at home is about 25 cents a
day. There are less than five mil
lion wage earners, all told, in the
peninsula kingdom. Here is an
arithmetical problem any American
school boy can solve.

THEY DECLINED TO SERVE.
Bailey aud Fairchild do not want to go
on the Old School Board and tell the
Members so when they are Appointed.
They will not 60 on duty till July.

We were misinformed yesterday
when we stated that Col Fairchild
and W. H. Bailey had accepted po-
sitions on the school board to fill the
places left vacant by the resignation
of Frank Cox and George c. Steele.
They declined the offer with thanks.
But stated that IN case all the men,
bers Of the board would resign and
let the new board step in they would
accept, but until then they preferred
to wait until the first of July when
their terms would begin. The rea-
sons for this are several in number.
The disagreements of the old board
over various matters Of policy caused
the two who resigned to retire and
the new men did not feel like going
into the board under the circum-
stances. They will consequently wait
until the terms OF the old members
expire and they will then go in with
the rest of the new board. Until
that time the three remaining mem
bcrs of the old board will run things
To suit themselves with assistance
from the newly elected members.

THE WRECK.
An Impression That the Shattered hulk
OF the Maine will Be Left where 1t
Inc


1t looks as IL the career OF the
Maine as a 6attleship, borne on our
naval list and protected by our flag,
had nearly come to a close. The
court of inquiry does not, indeed,
make any report as to whether the
ship can be raised, that being beyond
its province, but it speaks four times
of the disaster to the Maine as its
'.destruction, while its description
of the breaking OF the keel asunder
and the forcing OF portions Of the bot
tom of the ship above water only
confirms popular impressions as to
the hopelessness of the wreck. The
very photographs of the vessel as she
now lies justify the notion that it
will never be raised. 1t is generally
understood that this view is held by
Capt. Sigsbee, and has been conveyed
by him TO the navy department.
However, naval proceedings are meth
odical and in due form, and the re-
port of the board Of survey on the
Maine, which will soon be rendered,
will be awaited before settling her
fate, observes the New York sSun."
1t is said that we have already got
most OF the contents Of the M inc
that can be saved, or would payafor
the cost of recovery, and that the
battery, including the 3-inch guns
and the secondary pieces, has been
saved, with the very important ex-
ception of the four 10-inch guns. The
pair in the starboard turret probably
never can be got up, because the tur-
ret cannot be moved. Spain objected
to letting Capt. Sigsbee facilitate the
recovery Of material by blowing away
distinctions with dynamite, appar-
emily on the ground of possible injury
to the surroundings, and perhaps also
because she had plans of her own.
But it is said that we have at least
secured the breech blocks of the two
after guns, so that probably little
that is important will be left 10 the
Dons.
OF course Spain would sooner or
later get rid of the Maine as dam
gerous harbor obstruction, II once
abandoned. Perhaps she would seize
the occasion first to make investiga-
lions, and she might herself employ
dynamite for that purpose, or for
helping to break up the wreck. At
all events. the ship win probably not
much longer be ours, but we shall
have new and greater battleship
to bear its honered name.

IN CASE OF WAR.
General Appleton is Ready to Handle
Our Troops.

General Appleton has every detail
arranged, in case of war with Spain,
for the handling of the West Vir.
ginia National Guard and the mus
tering of the volunteer force of the
State. The State has been divided
into six military districts and will
furnish 1900 National Guards of six
regiments. One thousand of these
are already mustered in and well
drilled. The balance will be made w
of new men who have already offered
their services to the State.
General Appleton is SO years of age
and has long record of splendid ser.
vice during the Civil war. General
Appleton holds the same position
with relation to Governor Atkinson
that the Secretary'of war does to thu
President. The General is prepared
to mobilize his men upon short no
tice, and may take the field himself
in command.

If the Sioux Indians have put
their war paint on to fight Spain it
may be the part of wisdom for Uncle
Sam to place his wards at the front
of the army of invasion in Cuba, for
when an Indian gets ready to fight,
we have learned in this country, he
doesn't become peaceful until he has
had enough of war.

EFFECT WAS AWFUL.
First Reports of the Recent Hurri-
cane in the West Indies Not
Exaggerated.

Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 24.-Mail
advices which reached here Friday
brought melancholy relief to the sus-
pense regarding the full extent of the
hurricane disaster at the islands of
St. Vincent, St. Lucia and Barbados,
showing that the first accounts were
not exaggerated. At st. Vincent about
300 lives have been lost, not counting
the loss of life suffered through the
obstruction of shipping. The coast is
strewn with the wrecks of vessels,
many of which were from Barbados.
The storm ragged from ten o'clock in
the morning Sunday, September ~
until two o'clock in the afternoon,
completely wrecking the island. At
the capital, Kingston, fully 200 houses
were demolished, while the suburbs,
Coxhcath and Monticello, were OBJ
liberated.
Throughout the island the destruc-
tion was on wholesale scale, not only
the estates and buildings being RACED
and cultivation being obliterated.
The hurricane struck the island of
Barbados on the night of the 10th,
completely wrecking that fat, exposed
island and sweeping away 900 houses
while damaging thousands more. This
left three-quarters of the inhabitants
homeless. Over 100 people were killed
so far as known. The city OF Bridge
town was partially destroyed and the
suburbs of ST. Michael and BelIeville
were entirely demolished. All the
shipping was wrecked or blown out
to sea. The total estimated damage
besides the loss from the cane crop
and provisions is about $1,5OOOO0 at
Barbados.

STAND BY THE STOCK.
Fertility of Farm Cannot lie Kept
Up Where Animals Are Not
Raised Continually.

1t has never seemed to be right or
profitable to sell our sheep, hogs,
horses or cattle and go out of business
during a time of depression and then
buy them back and commence business
again when on the boom and much ad-
vanced in value. 1t would be better to
pursue the opposite course and load
UP when prices are down; sell our
stock when business Is prosperous and
prices good and buy them back again
during a time of depression. The ten
dency among a majority of our farm
ers is to speculate and rush into that
branch of agriculture that promises
the largest and quickest returns, re-
gardless of cost. 1t takes large sums
of money and years Of time 10 build
up good, first-class herd Of live stock
as well as careful and well directed la
Dor, intelligent management, expe-
rienee and good Judgment. Without
stock there is no manure and without
manure there is no fertility. Stock
raising, therefore, is the foundation of
successful farming. 1t is impossible to
retain the fertility Of farm not con-
nected with animal industry. In view
of these facts we would reverse the
usual order Of things and make stock
raising the means of promoting our
farming operations and not the end
and object TO be attained.-A. p.

THE PEACE TERMS.
Spanish Commissioners to Contend
for Retention of Philippines and
Payment of Cuban Debt.

Madrid, Sept. 27.-The cabinet Mon
day evening had under discussion Capt.
Gen. Blanco's dispatch concerning the
American claims in connection with the
evacuation of Cuba. Duke Almodovar
de Rio, minister of foreign affairs,
states that the Spanish peace commits
sioners have been instructed to con-
tend strongly for the integrity of Span
ish sovereignty in the Philippines, on
the ground that the protocol between
Spain and the United States was signed
before Manila capitulated; and also to
make a firm stand regarding the Cuban
debt and the Philippine loan of 1896, if
Luzon is ceded to America. Should the
United States prove less eXacting than
is expected the commissioners have
power to make all possible concessions,
political and commercial, compatible
with the retention Of Spanish sover-
eign in the Philippines; but in the event
of losing a portion of the islands, they
are instructed to resist to the utmost
any attempt of the United States to
claim the right of preference over other
powers should Spain desire 10 sell or
cede the remainder of the islands. 1t is
understood, however, that all instruc-
lions are only ad referendum. Most of
the commissioners and attaches speak
English.
