A SUBJECT OF CHARITY.

The visionary cranks who are now managing the national democracy are fast making it a subject for charity in every sense "Coin" Harvey has tried his S1 a month subscription plan, Sen ator Jones has seen the disruption of his theatrical show put on the road to educate the hearts of the people to the iniqui:ies of gold and the beauties of silver, somebody else has tried the endless chain nuisance, and now it is said the democratic cigar is likely to be a red-hot factor in the next na- tional campaign and the democratic na- tional committee may become a great tobacco trust. Senator Jones is said to look with favor upon unique scheme of manufacturing campaign encapsulated cigar of American tobacco and placing it on sale in every part of the country. In this way it is hoped to produce the sincws of war for the next campaign. The average smoker wants no politics in his smoke and af- ter he ges a few whiffs of Jones' cab in the gutter and vote any ticket that will give him revenge on the party that fathered the scheme. The turkey raf- fle has not yet been tried by Jones. After an honest effort in that line the only thing to do will be to send the de- mocracy to a1 Old Ladies' home and support it a. public expense.

THAT MEETING.

The meeting at the court house last night was composed largely of oppon- Ients of the bond proposition and the Iargument was advanced that Phoenix
 has no need Of good Sewerage or an ad- eQuate water system. It was a meet
 ing that has had counterparts in Kan sas City, Columbus, Minneapolis, To- peka and many other towns in which the progressive element has sought to
 better the financial condition of the community. If the arguments present.
 ed in those different municipal con
 tests could have been preserved and
 repeated last night after Judge Baker
 concluded his intemperate remarks
 in opposition to the bonding of the
 city they would have had most famll-
 jar ring. Human nature is the same
 the world over, and when a body ot
 taxpayers array themselves agalnst
 pI opposed Improvements their decla-
 rations do not differ in any degree.

 Baker did not once get out of the beaten
 path of the non-p -progressivists. He de-
 veloped nothing new on which the Op-
 ponents of the bonds .an appeal to the people. l. was well that he announced at the beginning Of his address that he knew nothing about the question at is- sue, for he demonstrated the fact most He declared the figures submitted by The Republican to be erroneous, but refrained from showing in what particular The Republican has erred. Instead he juggled with the fig ures relating to the municipal indebt- edness and dwelt upon evils that eX- pcrience has shown never follow in the train Of municipal ownership of water works and sewers except where gross mismanagement is permitted. The judge had plenty of supporters In the and they ap2lauled him warmly except when he went cut of his way to make an undignified and utterly attack upon the character of Mayor Adams. The silence that fol- lowed that unmanly utterance would have convinced most men that a gross mistake had been made. We assure General Collins, who followed Judge Baker, that he has no reason to assume that the city would be, plunged into an lnseemly turmoil if the bond plan shall succeed. There is no disposition, SO far as we know, to ruin the prop srty of the present water company.

FROM A PAPER TO THE PULPIT
The Original Method of a Reporter
 Who Turned Minister.

From a reporter to a clergyman is a wide leap which few bright lumind- ries of the press would care to under take The Rev, C. l.. Miel is a case in point, and he is considered as great a success in the pulpit as when he graced the staff of the Examiner years ago. The same originality which character iZed him as newspaper mn dfstin- guiShes him as priest. In his church they follow the prevailing fad of peri odically giving a. concedt on Sunday evening inssead of a religious service. Parson Miel had noticed that although these entertainments invariably drew Q crowd, the receipts were never in proportion to the Eumbe.s. At the end of one such performance he gave the congregation the benefit of this obser- Vation:
 Just to discover how much you ap- preciate this music,'' he began, and to ascertain also who give and who do not he added naively, T will pass the plate myself tonight"
 In his priestly robes he made the en- tire circuit of the church with an i'm mense aims basin. And the sum total of that collection broke all the relig ious records.-San Francisco News.

A SWORD IN A WINDOW.
Admiral Schley Sees His Presen
 Ahead Of Time.

Ahead Of Time.
 Rear Admiral Winfield Scott Schley is in town for a few days, and he was
 walking down the avenue with an old friend, also naval officer, and they were looking in the shop windows in a very democratic manner, when the ad- miral happened to glance in the win dow of a well known jewelry firm, and his attention was attracted to a mag nificent gold sword.
 The two gentlemen stopped and looked in the window at the sword few minutes, and read the card which was near it, announcing that this sword is to be presented to Rear Ad- miral Schley in Philadelphia on the 2OLh inst"
 Let us go in and see it." said Schley. And in they went. The jew eler was near the door and he recog- nized the hero of Santiago at once. The sword and case were taken out of the window and placed on top Of a show case, where the admiral could examine it closely. His face was Deaming with delight as he handled it, and outside there was gathering a large crowd of men, women and children. whose faces were also beaming, but they were not looking at the sword. They were studying every move and change Of eX- pression in Schley's face. He did not seem to notice them, and after eXamin- ing the sword and accompanying belt carefully for about fifteen minutes, he and his naval friend walked off, with great crowd following closely W9ShinetOp Post

OUR RULE in CUBA.

The inhabitants of Santiago have
just stepped from the fourteenth to
the nineteenth century. - Cleveland
Leader.
Machetes are well enough for cut
ting off heads, but shovels and hoes
will do more to build up a town.|Syra-
cuse Standard.
The United States is in Cuba as a
trustee and referee. Our presence
there is solely to end Spanish rule and
establish a government both just and
free.-Philadelphia Press.
The inhabitants of Santiago owe the
preservation of the city to the for
bearance of the American forces. To
build up, not to tear down, is the
American ambition in unfortunate Gu
ba.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
President McKinley's definition of
this country's attitude in Cuba de-
clares in favor of law, order and liber-
ty. In a word, justice is to be the
foundation stone of the fabric of
freedom to be raised by the United
States in Cuba.-Scranton Truth.
The instructions issued by President
Mckinley for the temporary govern
ment of the territory occupied by our
forces in Cuba are nothing less than d
magma charta for the people of that
distracted region. Under the form of
martial law they substitute order, lib
erty and security for confusion, tyran-
ny and rapine.-N. Y. Journal.
II is safe to say that Santiago never
in its history had so good a govern
ment as now-under the military con
troll Of the United States. The rights
cf man for the first time rule supreme.
The announcement that the army Of
the United States is the forerunner of
Just law and that established institu-
tons will be respected az far as they
harmonic with the new order will
help to remove the doubts the people
may have felt regarding the methods
Of the conquering nation, while the as
that trade and civil relations
are not to be affected will inspire the
city and community to a new activity.
