Ait >eld on Hero WOr,hiD.

Compared with the mighty civil war,
the late Cuban war scarcely rises to
the dignity of a skirmish, yet the he
roes of the late war seem to be more
numerous than all the heroes, Union
or Confederates. of the civil war. We
are not hero worshipers, nor, on the
other hand, are we devoted to the for
tunes of any one man. We view this
whole situation calmly, and even cold
ly. We rate men not by the clothes
they wear, but by the principles they
stand for, and by the services they
render their country. And viewed
from this standpoint, never before in
the history of any country or any peo-
pie, was the cause of freedom, the
cause of a great people, so heroically
and so ably maintained in all its integ-
rity as it has been during the last three
years by William ]. Bryan. And when
we say this, we are not indulging In
hero worship, hut are simply recogniz-
ing great fact.-JOhn 2. Aitgeld.

McIeau,s Nomination.

John r. Mclean, editor of the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, has been nominated by
the Ohio State Democratic convention
for Governor, and he will doubtless be
elected. In speaking of the prospects
Mr.. Mclean says:
"Ohio is good fighting ground this
year. The people are in revolt against
Hanna, for his tyranny and brutality:
against Mckinley, for his subversion of
the principle on which American inde.
pendence was founded, and against the
Republican party, for its pandering to
the influences that are hostile to every
interest of the people. | can see my
way clear now to predict a victory for
Democracy in November. All ask is
the earnest, loyal, sincere support of all
Democrats"
This is encouraging and honest talk,
and is in line with the general trend
Of opinion in Ohio. Mclean stands on
q true Democratic platform, reaffirming
the Chicago document from start to fin
ish, favoring free silver, denouncing
trusts, and indorsing William ]. Bryan
as candidate for President in 1900. The
outlook in Ohio is bright for the Dem
ocrats. Mclean is fighter and a
shrewd political organizer. He pos
sesses ample means, edits great news
paper and goes in to win.-Chicago

Cen LYON of Wisconsin,

General W. 7. Lyon, eX-chief justice
of Wisconsin, was first captain in the
Eighth Wisconsin, better known as the
Eagle" Regiment, because it carried
| through the war bald eagle which the
soldiers named 'Old Abe" and which
the State tenderly cared for in the
basement of the Capitol until 1879,
when he died, aud afterward Colonel
of the Thirteenth. Both the Colonel
and his wife, who spent much of her
time with her husband in the field, car
ing for the sick and writing letters to
dear ones at home for the invalids,
were Quakers, but patriotic enough to
serve their country in its time of need.
While Colonel Lyon was a strict discip-
linarian, he was ever watchful of the
interests and comfort of his men.
One of the Thirteenth had been sen
fenced to carry a rail, night and day,
two hours on and four hours off, for
ten days. 1t was an unjust sentence.
Colonel Lyon tried to get it modified,
but failed. One dark, stormy night
the Colonel put on private's overcoat
and walked with the rail-carrier.
Let me carry the rail for time"
1t was dark and the soldier could not
see who his companion was.
who are you? What is your COM
panyT
Don't you want rest:'
Yes, but | don't want any more pun
ishment for giving up the rail TO a
traitor
I'm no traitor; give me the rail-
For an hour Colonel Lyon carried the
rail and then went to the guardhouse
and instructed the officer of the guard
not to awaken the man for rail duty
again that night.
While Colonel Lyon was still in the
army, in the spring of 1860, he was
called out as an Independent candidate
for Circuit Judge. His opponent was
David Noggle, of Janesville, who had
been Judge for some time. The contest
was sharp one. Word had been re-
ceived by Lyons friends that he would
not give the necessary orders for an
election in his regiment. The managers
united in writing the Colonel that the
fight was so severe that the vote of
the Thirteenth was necessary to ma'.e
certain of his election and urged him
to see that an election was ordered.
Il would rather be defeated than or
der an election in my own interest"
was Colonel Lyons answer; and he
didn't. But the Thirteenth's vote was
not needed.

GENEROUS GIFTS BY BRlroNs.
America Is Greatly Indebted to Phil
anthropic English m en-.

Much public interest was aroused
during August, 1895, by the announce
ment Of the award by the Smithsonian
Institution of the Hodgkins prize Of
10000 10 Lord Raleigh and Prof. Will
lam Ramsay for their remarkable dis
.overy of a new element-argon-in the
atmosphere. From time to time be-
quests have been made to the institu-
ton, but for the most part these have
been comparatively small. In 1891,
however, Thomas G.. Hodgkins, of Sc
tauket, \. y, expressed his desire to
donate 100000 TO the Smithsonian
fund. The regents accepted the sum,
with the single condition made by the
dOnOr that the income of 100000 of
the gift shall be used under this gem
eral purpose for the especial use of the
increase and diffusion of knowledge
concerning all the phenomena of at
mospheric air." In accordance with
this provision early in 1894 a circular
was issued, offering "a prize of $4,000
FOR a treatise embodying some new
and important discovery ia regard to
the nature or properties of atmospheric
air. The first award of this prize was
made as mentioned above Two grants
of money were previously made from
this fund to aid in the prosecution OF
special Investigations on air, one of
which is being carried on in Germany
and the other in the United States.
Meanwhile, in November, 1892, Mr..
Hodgkins died at the advanced age of
50 years and made the Smithsonian
Institution his residuary legatee. In
consequence further sum OF money
was added to the Smithsonian fund.
and the total amount of the permanent
fund now on deposit in the United
States treasury is S911, ,000, on which
sum an annual interest of 6 per cent.
is paid to the institution for the carry
ing out of its special aims. 1t is curl
Gus to note that Hodgkins, like Smith
son, was an Englishman, and, again
like Smiths0n, he was student of sci

Thus succinctly did Mr.. Bryan put
the trust question in his Chicago ad-
dress: ''On the trust question | sug-
gest the following propositions for your
consideration: FIRST. The trust is Il
menace to the welfare of the people of
the United States, because it creates a
monopoly and gives it to the few in con.
troll of the monopoly almost unlimited
power over the lives and happiness of
the consumers, employees and producers

dent appoints the Attorney General,
who will enforce antitrust laws. Third.
The Attorney General can recommend
sufficient laws, il present laws are in
sufficient. Fourth. The Attorney Gen
eral can recommend an amendment to
the Constitution, if the present Consti-
tuition makes it impossible to extin-
guish the trusts. Fifth. The Rppubli-

Cuban Women Grow Old Quickly

As rule, the Cuban woman is round
IN figure and pretty in feature. Her
face is seldom vivacious-o one looks in
vain for the beauty of expression. Her
hair is often glory to her, and is
sometimes of that black blue shade
only possible with the daughters of
Southern Europe and their descen-
dants, though occasionally the Cuban
girl varies the program by being
blonde, and, to be plain, rather fat.
This lady is often woman at II. and
the mother of a large family at 10 or
20. So pretty in her yCspi, in age she
becomes either lean and dried or fat
and unwieldy. She fades early, and,
for want of strength of character, is
apt to lose control of her husband,
who, nevertheless, still continues to
need such control as badly as any man
Of his times. But, whatever she may
grow to seem, her eyes never fade. To
the last, through all vicissitudes, they
are big and black.

What the Flag Stands For

THE flag" declared President Nc
kinley, in his speech at Ocean Grove,
does not stand for one thing in the
United States and another thing in
Porto Rico and the Philippines"
Let US see whether it does or not
The Thirteenth Amendment to the
Constitution of the United States pro-
vides that neither slavery nor invoi-
untary servitude, except as punish
ment for crime, shall exist within the
United States or any place subject to
their jurisdiction"
The flag on American soil proper
symboliZes this spirit of universal lib
erty to remarkable degree. Only in
exceptional cases, where n corporation
owned judge issues iniunctions against
strikers quitting work, is there such
thing among us as involuntary servi-
tude.
But our brethren, the Moros of the
Sulu group, are not so fortunate, al
though they live under the same flag,
and their Sultan, for a consideration,
has agreed not TO haul ii down."
Among them, prominent writer who
has just visited the Sultaaate declares
girls of 10 are valued at five bushels
of rice. Another magazine contributor,
John Foreman, informs lis that "slav-
cry exists in the most ample sense"
We should think it does, when, in ad-
dition to slavery being hereditary, pris-
oners of war, insolvent debtors and
captives secured through piratical ex-
peditions become bondmen.
Whether these prisoners of war, book
ed for sale to the Dutch planters of
Borneo,' will in future be captured IN
der the flag which does not mean one
thing in the United States and another
in Porto Rico and the PHILIPPINES" the
President does not make quite clear.

DEMOCRAT VOTES NOT SCARCE,

1t Is to the interest, of course, of the
Republicans to keep alive the belief
that the Democrats were SO badly beat
en- the last Presidential election that
their chances of success next year are
very slight. AS matter of fact, how
ever, there was not n remarkable differ
ence between the two parties in the
total popular vote.
Mckinley led Bryan by almost an
even C00.0c0. but if the Republicans
had polled 150.G00 votes less than they
did they would have been in minority,
for the total opposition cast within
100000 of theirs throughout the Union.
The change of one vote in twenty
from Mckinley to Bryan would have
made the latter President, and if the
l33,OO0 ballots that were cast by the
disgruntled Democrats for Palmer had
remained with the regular party NOM
tnee change of only about one in thir.
ty would have been necessary TO put
him in the lead.
1t is not true, either, as the Republi-
cans have claimed, that the vote for
Bryan fell off from what was expected
on the strength of the Democratic vote
OF previous years. Bryan in 1896 re-
ceived nearly half million more votes
than did Cleveland in 1892 The Dem
ocracy did not gain as much during
the four years interval as the Republi-
cans did, but, all things considered,
they held their own pretty well. even
among those who grew to manhood be-
tween these two elections.
The Democratic party kept itself in
quite good shape under very adverse
circumstances. and it has recuperated
wonderfully since then. In New York
State, where Mckinley three years ago
had a plurality of 26S,000 over Bryan,
The Republicans last year could muster
only begsarly 5000 for their candi-
date for Governor, who had the advant-
age of brilliant Spanish war record
and strong personal attraction for a
large portion of the independent voters.
Other States have done almost as
well as New York since 1896, and there
IS nothlpg whatever about the political
outlook to dishearten any Democrat.
On the contrary, the promise of victory
IS bright. and is becoming more roseate
Ill the time.-New York News.
