The greatest danger that menaces our
troops in Cuba is in the use of old Spanish
barracks For scores of years these build
ings were utilized by the army of occupa-
tion, and as result they are reeking with
the germs of tropical fevers. No amount
CT disinfection will entirely eradicate the
danger from this source. The army heall h
authorities apparently realize this, for the
announcement is made that after four deaths
and eighteen cases of yellow fever in the
hospitals at Santiago the troops have been
moved to an open air camp on the hills,
With proper precautions in the matter OF
housing and feeding our troops in Cuba

ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC ULTIMATuM.
Threat That the Nomination of Hol-
comb viii End Fusion.
PapIllion Times (dem.)


For three years the populist leaders have
used the love OF Bryan which animates demo-
cratic hearts as a club to hold democrats
in line for any plan or ticket which the
populst politicians might formulate in Ne
braska. But the club is no longer serviceable.
Democrats love Bryan none the less, but
they rather fear less the threats of the
populist manipulators.
We do not mean to say that the democ
racy OF the state will no longer affiliate
with the populists, but we do say that there
will be no more one-sided deals in state
politics. Either the democrats will be given
a fair show, or they will have a whole show
of their own. This is not intended as a
threat. 1t is simply an expression of opinion
on the part of one who believes he is in touch
with the Nebraska democracy-one who
yields first place to no man in loyalty to
Bryan.
We ask our populist friends to look the
situation in the face like men, and do some
thing to check the fast rising opinion in
democratic minds that we are loved by
populists only for the value of our votes.
Let's get together right. or separate. When
we talk about running separate democratic
ticket our popuist friends tell us that we
do not dare do II, because it would hurt
Bryan's chances. That scare will not work
this year. NO one state can nurt Bryan S
chances this year He is too big for that.
We do not want to see Nebraska drop back
into the republican ranks and that's why
we are now appearing to our populist friends
to be fair, and give us a democrat for SUI
preme Judge this fall or else give us Allen
and promise to send some democrat to the
United States senate to succeed Thurston.
We frankly admit that with three tickets
in ttle field in this state the republicans
would win. We assert that the same result
will follow even with fusion, provided the
populists shall continue to treat their demo-
cratic friends with contempt.
1t is generally understood in this state
that an alliance offensive and defensive,
exists between three prominent popullst
leaders, and that the plans are laid to elect
one of the three to congress in the Sixth
district, one to the office of supreme judge
this fall, holding the third member of the
triumvirate in reserve for the senate. Now
that is all right as far as it goes but 1t Will
not 60 very far in the democratic conven-
ton. Should the initial play of this trio |
be successful this fall the fusion forces will
find themselves ali SHOT to pieces when the
votes shall have been counted. II the pops |
play fair it will be our republican friends
who will need the services of surgeons and
the popocratic ticket will never get scratch.
"For Bryan's sake" will not be a good club |
for populsts to use in the democratic state |
convention this year in Nebraska.

Lessons of Experience Ignored.

SI. IUUt-DeTIUCTdI.
The fatalism Of the democracy is one of
the most marked traits of that strange party.
Very nearly all of its leaders appear to be-
lieve that Bryan's candidacy next year would
be suicidal for their side, yet many of them
declare that he is certain to be nominated.
They know he can by no possibility carry
the country but they see no way whereby
he can be kept off thefticket. This is an
extraordinary condition of things. Henry
Watterson's figure of 1896 of the democ-
racy's march through a slaughter house to
an open grave expressed the condition of that
party now, with this difference, that it's
defeat next year will be much more dis
astrous to it than was that OF three years
ago a..

For the second time The Bee pro.
pounds the question, Has any one
heard of any one connected with the
proprletorship of the World Herald
going down into his pockets for single
dollar to be contributed TO the various
Herman relief funds? Is it not true
that the only offer of cash emanatlne
from that paper was the harm
less offer of $50 reward for the
arrest and conviction of the par
ties said TO have removed the
sign from the World-Herald relief
bureau and thereby to have deprived
that paper of some of the self-adyer-
tisement il was making at the expense
Of sympathetic donors?

Unless Germany changes i

Unless Germany changes its mind
there will be no agreement at the peace
conference to limit expenditures for the
army and navy. Germany's acquies-
cence is a necessity, not only from Its
importance as power, but from its
central location in Europe. The Ger
man official class is thoroughly con-
vinced that its safety depends upon be-
ing the preponderating military power
and there Is no likelihood of them
agreeing to any proposal to cut OFF,
their own salaries.

The aggregate gold expectation since the
movement began has been about s13,500, 900.
Nobody knows, and probably nobody cares,
how long the outflow is to continue. The
chances are however, that the mines of the
United States will contribute more gold dur
ing the year than the steamers carry out OF
the country. Moreover. when the outward
grain movement begins in September or
October, gold is likely to flow into the coun-
try. In any case the United States is going
to keep at the head Of the list of gold-own-
ing nations ......
