Report Not Credited

Jacksonville, Fla, October 6-No cred ence is placed in the report that the Daunt- less is off on another filibustering expedi- tion. The vessel left port last night loaded heavily with coal and provisions and carry ing extra men as crew. The explanation offered today in shipping circles is that the tug has gone to tow a schooner from Key West to some Cuban port; that she could not take coal at Key West without go- ing into quarantine, and to avoid this nc- cessity she carried fuel, provisions and water sufficient to take her to Cuba without landing anywhere.

PROTECT OUR FOOD.

The doctors inform It's that alum
is poison, and that alum baking
powders should be avoided because
they make the food unwhoIesome.
Prominent hygieuists, who have
given the matter much study, re-
gard these powders as an evil thai
should be suppressed by state ac-
ton. In Minnesota and Wisconsin
alum powders are not permitted tc
be sold unless they are branded to
warn consumers of their true char
acter. while in the District of Co
lumbia the authorities have under
the direction of Congress, adopted
regulations to prohibit the use OF
alum in bread altogether.
Are not the people ofother states
as well as those of Minnesota and
Wisconsin, entitled to warning of a
danger which is apparently menac
ing them at close hand, aud is not
the whole country entitled to lbso-
lutte protection, as the people OF
the District of Columbia are pro
tected, by legislation which is en-
tirely prohibitive?
Until we can have protection in
the form of statute, how can our
state boards Of health, state analy-
sis or food commission better serve
the public than by publishiugin the
newspapers from time to time the
names of the baking powers which
they find to be made of alum?
Meantime, it will aid the house
wife in designating the alum pow
.ders to remember that all powders
sold at twenty-five cents or less per
pound are of this dangerous class.
Pure cream of tarter powders are
usually sold at from forty-fve tC
fifty cents per pound.

CUBA's GOVERNMENT.

The administration has given out
the form of government which will
prevail in Cuba. The approach Of
the presidential campaign has fore
ed Mckinley to outline a policy,
and, in doing it, he has sought, as
far as possible, to avoid the mis-
takes he has made in the Philip
pines. He pretends to give the
Cubans taste of home rule, but it
win be observed that it is strange
form of government which yields
few privileges to the governed and
reliuquishes none of the rights or
privileges of the United States
Under such a form of government
it is a question whether the Cubans
win ever be able to realize their
dream Of a free republic. The fol
lowing gives all the essential feat
ures of the form of government
proposed for Cuba:
A civil governor and chief judici-
airy to be appointed by the United
States government.
All municipal offices, even post
Offices aud custom bureaus to be
filed by natives.
Laws to be made by legislative
bodies composed entirely of natives
their enactments being subject to
the approval of the governor and
chief justice,
The occupation force of the
United States soldiers to be reduc-
ed to a minimum,
The government and chief justice
to virtually constitute de facto
government the status of Cuba be-
ing precisely that of a territory
after admission to statehood pend
ing the submission of its constitu-
tion to the people.
In addition to authority from
congress for the appointment of a
civil governor and a head of the
judiciary, nothing will be necessary
to continue the indefinite occupa-
ton Of Cuba, but permission to
make tariff regulations.
Under the existing law the presi-
dent is empowered to make various
concessions, or to a certain extent,
establish free trade, but he cannot
make differential duties. With the
added authority the president
thinks he can adjust trade between
the United States and Cuba on a
satisfactory basis,
If this conglomerated scheme of
government in Cuba is made opera
ative it is the expectation of the
originators that it can be continued
for months or years.-Shreveport

The Little Rock Democrat delights

The Little Rock Democrat delights
in calling all newspapers not printed

house "the country newspaper. -
Now we like Little Rock and its no
BILE people, and we feel exceedingly
kind to our Markham street con-
temporary, but the truth is there
are quite number Of newspapers
published in Arkansas that for ed
itorial capacity and general newspa
per and journalistic appearance
and ability are at least the equal Of
the Democrat. THE country news
paper while according full measure
of credit to its metropolitan com
petitors is nevertheless the verysalt
the bone and sinew Of Arkansas. The
Aippant and frequent sarcastic rem
arks Of the Democrat are as unwor-
thy as they are bombastic and that

it appears that the strike among
the coal miners of Western Arkan-
sas is about over, and they have lost.
The Little Rock Democrat says on
the subject: "The strike in the coal
mines of western Arkansas might
have been avoided had it not been
for the presence of three or four
agitators who we're unwilling to ac-
cept anything short of their entire
demands. A great majority of the
miners did not want to strike, but
were almost forced to Join the
movement by these leaders. 1t is a
deporable fact that good men will
permit themselves to be influenced
by irresponsible characters and led
into Improbable movements, The
coal miners of western Arkansas
have gained nothing thus far On
the contrary they have lost the wa
ges of months and the operators
have lost the profits of the entire
season, Left to themselves a ma
iority of the miners would have set
tied their differences long ago

It is remarkable how solicitous
opposition politicians are about the
future of Hon. W. j. Bryan, and the
vast amount of advice rendered
"free gratis tor nothing" They
say it is useless for him to seek the
nomination for the presidency, for
in the first place he could not get it
and if perchance he should, why he
could not possibly be elected And
another says it win ruin him to 20
into Kentucky to advocate the cleo
tiou of the Democrats nominee for
governor 1t appears to us that
Bryan is all right, and the sayings
of carping critics and his enemies
will come to naught; he is amply
able to take care of himself.

Different newspapers and cotton
men of the South say that if the
farmers of the South will only eX-
ercise a little judgment in market
ing cotton this fall they will receive
fully one-third more for it. Claim
is made, and it seems plausible, that
when cotton is rushed in so-rapidIy
early in the fall, it causes a big de-
cline in the price, and this works a
very severe loss and hardship; say
If growers of cotton will only agree
among themselves to hold back one
third of the cotton gathered until
after Christmas, a much better
price will prevail We think there
is something in this-it sounds rea-
souabIe-and we would advise its
acceptance by our friends. Most
assuredly it can work little harm.
