American Thieves in Cuba.

The impudent argument of Mr.. Lindsay
| attorney for Charles p. Neely, against the
proposed extradition bill, ought not to
have feathers weight at Washington.
MIR. Lindsay says that an American citi
zen should not be taken to Cuba for trial,
because the Spanish criminal law prevails
there. Whatever law prevails in Cuba is
there because for the sixteen months of
our occupation we have considered it
good enough for the purpose. 1t is good
enough for the Cubans. 1t is good enough
for thousands of honest Americans who
are voluntarily living under it. 1t was
good enough for Nicely when he went to
Cuba, became thief and dragged the
American name and the American flag in
the mud. An American citizen who steals
in Cuba and runs away has no more moral
rights than one who is caught on the spot.
Yet if Nicely had been caught in Cuba
there would have been no question of the
right of the authorities of the island to try
him there
Itds not Neely that isson trial now--itis
the United States. Leniency to Ameri-
cans who use the power of our government
to rob our dependent peoples is disgrace
to America. The House of Representa-
tives has given Mr.. Lindsay his answer

American criminals to Cuba 1t ought to
be law before the week is out.-N. Y.

The Fight for Good Roads.

The League of American Wheelmen pro-
poses to draft series of resolutions for pre-
sentation to the national parties, praying
that "good roads" plank be incorporated
in their respective platforms.
We sincerely hope that the request may
be complied with. There is no reason
why the roads between cities like Phila-
delphia, New York, Boston, Albany, Bal
timore and Washington, should not equal
those of France.
Moreover, the farmers should not leave
the matter entirely in the hands of the
wheelmen. The latter are benefited by
good roads only in their hours of recrea-
ton, while the farmers are greatly bene-
fitted financially.
The League of American WheeImen has
raised much money by personal efforts,
and has built short stretches of good road
in various quarters as object lessons to the
voters.
The Democratic party at least should
declare for good roads. Its motto has al
ways been ''The greatest good for the
greast number" The greatest number"
in this ease means those who use the pub
lie roads.

BRYAN IN HIS HOME LIFE.
BY JOHN II. GIRDNER, MD.

| If you would look upon American man
hood in its highest state of development 60
to Mr.. Bryan's farm in Nebraska, as l did
few days ago, and see the greatest states
man and leader of the Western Hemis-
phere, living the life that he loves best,
close to the soil, close to the plain people,
close to the great problems of honest toll
and its just rewards, which lie behind the
smoke and flame of party warfare in the
great money centres of the country.
AS he goes about his barn or walks
through his fields he gives one an impress
sion of almost immeasurable physical
strength and endurance. His muscles
are hard, his eyes and complexion are
clear, the inheritance of a temperate life.
Notwithstanding the tremendous draughts
which have been made upon his vitality
during the last four years, he is still young
err in physical strength than most men are
at forty.
When on his farm he has the jocose
szY1ssit of 1Mxf7sus feF xh6iffay. EAe.e
is nothing in his manner to indicate that
the greatest responsibilities of political
leadership in the present generation are
resting upon him.
1t is doubtful whether any other great
leader can SO easily dismiss from his mind
its customary burden of care and annoy
ance as Mr.. Bryan when he wants to
sleep or play. This is due to his evenly
balanced mental qualities and perfect
physical health, to intelligent self-control
and to a conscience void of offense.
He seems to breath in the very breath
of the farm, and to be part Of it 4; he is
so simple, so natural, unconscious of him
self, interested in everything that grows
in the horses, the chickens, the red
cow and its calf, the well, the windmill,
the farm overseer, and the rolling land
scape. | have rarely seen man with so
great capacity for enjoying the simple
beauties of nature. His tastes have not
been vitiated by the excitements of
city lie or the STOCK ticker.
Those who have only seen Mr.. Bryan in
the heat of a campaign laundering against |
the wrongs which press upon the plain
people can have no idea of the quaint, de-
licate, Lincoln-like humor that runs
through his conversation when he is off !
duty. He has good sense of proportion |
and enjoys telling story, even when the
joke is on himself. He can even joke |
about his military record, thing that few
men can do. The other day, in Lincoln,
be showed me his black "war charger"
and in tone of mock gravity said: ~ rode |
hat horse all through the Spanish -Ameri- |
san war. He was in every battle l was
IN. Do you wonder that am attached |
20 hint"
On a rising slope of the farm, which |
view Of miles in every direc-
ion, stands the little farmhouse, and on |
his spot he intends to build his permanent |
nome.
"Some day." he said, 'if am ever able |
%, l will put up a comfortable stone house
lere, where hope to spend my declining
years in peace.
That modest ambition of man who, by
the cause to which he has de-
'oted his life might acquire great wealth,
,ives better idea of the real Bryan than
'ould be conveyed in a volume of words.
