insult the most 'ornery razor-back that
ever out run niger in Georgia. I am
not pessimist, nor am an anarchist,
but the story of the boys IN Cuba,
furnished beef not fit for an Indians
dog, makes me feel that the law Is not
sufficient, and that the Arkansas way Of
dealing with the race problem is the
way to tackle these swindlers of the
government, and murderers of our
soldiers. 1t is the only method, too, f.
the law will not touch them-they have
too much money. They, and such as
they, will cause anarchy some day. And
then there will be spilling OF some
aristocratic lymph, and the opening OF
some arteries that will let the money
gained by dishonest methods flow out
of the family circulation. Such things
have happened, will happen again and
yet again, because the law never has
teen enforced against this class-and
never will be. 1t will clear the atmos
phere, for little while, but only that.
The hanging of a murderer does not
prevent others committing murder, but
it stops that particular one. The proof
is plain that rotten meat, meat treated
with death bearing chemicals was fur
nished the soldiers, deliberately and
with full knowledge of it's deadly char
acter. 1t is plainly shown by HON
the canned disease and EN- balmed death
was furnished. Has any one heard of
any steps being taken toward the
punishment of the murderers? Well,
hardly. 1 may be wrong-if so, it is be-

ralm-Lear Quarters for Troops.

Washington. Feb. 2S.-The War De-
partment officials are considering the
question of quartering United States
troops in Cuba. Many of the COM
mands are still quartered in tents, no.
tably those in Havana. The surgeons
have advised against the occupancy of
any buildings inherited from the Span
ish since. for the most part, these
structures are fever-rdden places.
The plan suggested is to construct a
species of palm-leaf structure, said to
be capable of lasting eight years, and
to place these quarters in the most
heallhy localities.

Secretary of the Navy Directed to Detail
ships to Make Surveys and soundings and
to Determine Most Practicable Route
"Pacifc Gable Fund" to BE Established
by Postmaster General.
Washington, March 1.-The Senate
Committee on Appropriations has
agreed to recommends That sub
marine cable be laid from San Fran
cisco to Honolulu. That it shall be
owned and operated by the United
States Government, and not by pri-
vate company. That S3,00O,0OO be ap-
propriated for it's construction and for
laying it, The project will be carried
in the Sundry Civil Appropriation Dill,
which will be taken up for consldera-
ton in the Senate as soon as the Army
bill is passed.
There were two propositions pend
ing before the committee on this sub
iect One, which was offered by Sen
ator Frye and endorsed by the For
eign Relations Committee. proposed
the payment of n subsidy of S11o,OoO
4 year for twenty years to private
company to lay and maintain cable
from California to Honolulu, Guam,
Manila China and Japan. This, after
due consideration, was rejected by the
committee.
The other proposition, and the one
which was accepted with some amend
ments by the Appropriation Commit
tee. was offered by Senator Butler, of
North Carolina. Its principal feature
is that the cable is not only to he
built, but maintained and operated by
the United States Government as Il
Government telegraph line. 1t will be
the first time the United States has
ever tried the experiment of Govern
ment ownership of the telegraph, eX
cept in case of the Cuban and Porto
Rican lines.
The Committee decided that it was
inadvisable to undertake the construc-
ton of the cable further than the Ha-.
waiian Islands at present until the fu-
ture of the Philippines was more def
initely settled.
The construction and operation OF
the cable is placed under the charge
of the Postoffice Department. The
Secretary of the Navy is directed 10
detail ships to make surveys and
soundings to determine the most prac-
ticable route.
After the cable has been completed
commercial messages are to be accept
ed at the rate of % cents a word from
San Francicso to Honolulu and press
messages at one-fourth that rate. \
Pacific cable fund" is to be estab-
lished by the Postma General, into
which the receipts from the cable are
to be paid, the proceeds above ex
penses to be turned into the Treasury.

In Inc win tnclr general policy TO Gre
ate the impression that Senator Quay's
friends are considering the matter of sup
porting another candidate, the Van Val
kenberg bureau. i'll one of their nightly
bulletins, say: Senator Finn referred to
the fact that ovcrtures had recently been
made to himself and one or two other
anti-Quaytes by friends of Senator
QUAY looking to an agreement upon some
one to succeed Senator Quay"
The only comment that need to be
made upon n statement of this character
is that Senator Quay is in this fight to
finish: no one is authorized to suggest or
command any compromise candidate and
talk or intimations to the contrary are
deliberate and unqualified falsehoods.
The ffty-two Republican boilers are as
weak and as impotent as they We're the
day they broke from the party caucus.
and unless they help elect Democrat
they cannot accomplish anything
The Democrats are not making any i'm
portant moves. though there is q mani
fest feeling of unrest among those who
are interested in legislation. Those whose
bills are blocked through the factional
fight over the senatorship are hearing
from their constituents With no hope of
election of a Democratic senator, they do
not see why they should aid those who
are responsible for the great expense to
the state by helping to continue present
conditions Senator Stiles has been max
ing a canvass among the Democrats and
finds many of his colleagues anxious to

legislation. mainly that for the raising of
