The democratic party may al
ways be depended upon to take
the wrong side of every question
OF public policy. 1t has an infinite
genius for blnndering. In 1864 il
declared the civil war failure just
as it now declares that american
soldiers are being unlawfully used
in the name Of liberty to crush and
destroy dawning republicanism in
the Orient" The democrats are
now championing cause which in
its essentials is the same as that
championed by the copperheads
during the war Of the rebellion
The leaders OF the democratic
party offer no remedy and are
seemingly content to do all in their
power to hamper those who are
doing their utmost to find solu-
ton of the vexed problem.
The hereditary propensity Of the
democratic party to oppose the
powers that be on all questions of
public policy sometimes places it
in predicament, but as it seldom
il ever learns anything by expert
encc, the sensation is not new,
and in fact has reached the stage
of being chronic complaint. The
resolutions adopted by the Otero
county democracy in 1898, when
conditions were different, aud the
resolutions adopted by the Otero
county democracy in 1899, when
conditions were different again, /
form strange contrast, and look
well side by side in dull. cold
metal as we here present them for
the edi6cation of our readers.

COLUMBUS BONES.
Are They Really in the Casket Taken
to Spain.

Cadiz, Jan. 21.-The casket containing
the supposed remains of Christopher Co
lumbus, which arrived here yesterday on
board the Spanish cruiser Condo de Vena-
ditto and was transferred to the auxiliary
cruiser Giralda, formerly the British yacht
of that name owned by Mr.. Harry Mccall
mont, for conveyance to Seville, has been
opened. About thirty bones and some
ashes were found in the casket. 1t was
reclosed and will be received at Seville
with great solemnity and deposited in the
cathedral. The route of the procession
will be lined with troops.
those of CHRISTOPHER Columbus, were re-
moved on September rs from the sareo5

1umbus and Diego Columbus were taken
to ID pomingo. The Spanish records - ai i
that the remains of Columbus were trans
Domingo to. Havana in 1859 But, ac-
cording to the people of Santo Domingo, a
mistake was made and the remains trans
ferred to Havana were those of Diego
Columbus, and not those of his father,
Christopher Columbus.
In support of this assertion the people of
Santo Domingo and independent investi-
gators say that Christopher Columbus,
deeply wounded by the Injustice and cruel
~ with which he had been treated by the
Spaniards, begged a short time before his
death that the chains in which. he had
been brought back a prisoner from the
West Indies, and which he always kept in
his room, be buried with him in his cof-
fin. This, it is said, done by the
members of his family and without the
knowledge of the Spanish officials. Final
ly, it is said, a reference to this matter
miral, and when the question to the
identity of the remains at Havana arose.
an investigation was made by French
man, resulting, it is claimed, in establish
ing the fact that the remains of Christie
pher. Columbus are still resting. at Santo
Domingo. If it were true that the chains
of Columbus were buried with him they
should have been found, it would appear
in the casket which has just been opened
at Seville. The next step, naturally. would
be to examine the remains at Santo Do
mingo, and if the chains are found there
would apparently be well established.

ated Press correspondent at Honolulu
sends the following advices under date
of January Is.
A big military instruction camp on the
uplands above Honolulu is the latest
proposal by the military authorities and
correspondence with the war depart
ment is now under way. The idea is to
have a permanent camp to accommO-
date at least Il, 900 men and to occupy
as much space as possible for carrying
| out extensive manoeuvers. In fact to
have as ideal a drilling ground as pos
Sible.

cision of the supreme court excluding

A special election has been called for
February "a for the purpose of filling
the vacancy in the Hawaiian senate Ow-
ing to the resignation of Senator H. w.
Schmidt. AT this writing no candidates
have been announced. The possibility
of an extra session of the legislature
during the summer is the reason for the
election.

PAY FOR LAWYERS
Who Are Appointed by the Courts to
Defend Poor Litigants.

Senator Hessin today presented for
the consideration of the senate a bill
which has an important bearing upon
the prosecution of defendants in Grim
inal cases too poor to hire lawyers to
defend them.
Mr.. Hessin's bill provides that in such
cases the court shall appoint not to ex-
coed two lawyers for the defense and
that they shall be entitled to a fee of
not less than $50 each for their work.
1t has been the custom to appoint
these attorneys as a matter of form,
they having never had consultation
with the prisoner until after they were
appointed by the court and the trial
called Under Mr.. Hessin'S proposed
new law the attorneys appointed by the
courts in the manner prescribed in his
bill shall have free access to their client
at any and all times.

CHURCH ROW IN CUBA.
Between the Spanish Bishop and the
Cuban Priests.

New York, Jan. GA dispatch to the
Tribune from Havana says:
The bishop of Havana and the Cuban
priests are engaged in a sharp contro-
versy over document recently promul-
gated by the priests. This was in sub
stance a manifesto against the bishop for
encouraging Spanish resentment and an
appeal to the American authorities to suS-
tain the Cubans. The bishop has sought
to present his side of the case to General
Brooke and to discredit the priests. He
has cited the pastorals issued by him,
counseling acquiescence in the new order
and the full acceptance of American au-
thority. The Cuban priests number only
thirty, but they are very aggressive in
their attitude and are defiant of the su-
perior ecclesiastical power.
The peculiar political conditions make it
impossible for the bishop to enforce dis

House Adopts Resolutions Commend
atory of Nicaragua Canal

The house by unanimous vote yes
terday adopted resolutions endorsing the
project to construct the Nicaraguan
canal.
The resolutions were introduced by
Adams of Butler, and are follows:
Whereas, The United States has be-
come one of the great world powers of
modern times, with great and grow
ing commerce to preserve and promote,
a vast coast line to protect and patrol,
and widely scattered possessions, MAX
ing it necessary to police the seas with
the authority of the nation and the
presence of its flag; and,
Whereas, The mobilization and con-
centratiOn of our navy on either side of
the continent, as exigency might re-
Quire, is rendered impossible by a long
and perilouS journey through uncertain
waters, involving the circumnavigation
of a continent and the cruising of thir-
teen thousand miles to accomplish dis
tance of thirtY-a condition which not
only retards the development of our
commerce, but which confronts the ma
ton with the necessity for the building
and maintenance of two naVies where
one might suffice: and,
Whereas, In peace or war, the neces-
sity exists with equal force; therefore
be it
Resolved, By the house OF represen-
tativeS of the state of Kansas, the
senate concurring therein, that our sem
ators be instructed and our representa-
tives be respectfully requested to aid in
securing some suitable and competent
provision for the speedy construction
of the Nicaraguan canal under the con-
troll of the United States government
and in such manner as it may direct.
Resolved, further, That a copy of
these resolutions and preamble, duly at
tested, be forwarded by the secretary of
state to the president of the United

Chinaman can be admitted to Porto

Eight of Them Dug Up on Goat Island,
Near San Francisco.

San Francisco, Jan. 21.-Contractors
employed in government construction
work on Goat Island today unearthed
eight skeletons 1t is a mystery how
they came there and there are several
wild stories af1oat. One is that Goat
Island, which is now government re-
serve was the haunt of pirates and that
much buried treasure is hidden on the
island. Another is that the island was
used by the Spaniards in early days as
a burial ground. Several attempts have
ben made to locate the hidden treasure
but without success. The skeletons I'M
earthed today are of enormous proper
tions, few being less than six feet, six
inches long.

NO PAY FOR WOLF soALPs.
An Old Fake Thrown Overheard by

The coyotes of western Kansas will
continue to wear their scalps undis-

house, which has killed Representative

soners to offer a bounty for wolf scalps.
Other measures which have been kill
ed by the judiciary committee are the

bitterness is shown on both sides. The
subject is not one of which General
Brooke take cognizance While the
