zElAYA IS NOT pEsPorlc.
His Bloody Rule Necessary to Restore 1 Order.

great many hard things have been said about President Zelaya, re- marked one who is well acquainted with the masterful head of the Niea- raguan government at one of the G9wrtown hotels the other night. Tn tf g he is generally supposed to S1 E.yodthirsty despot, ruling by sheer s-Gee of the terror he inspires, and the papers express surprise that he has not been wiped cut long ago by revolution. Such conception Of the man is altogether inaccurate. It is true that ZeIaya is a dictator, or at least more of dictator than any of the other Central American presidents, but he is far from despot. At the time he took his seat the country was torn by conflicting factions and it was necessary for him to use an iron hand to restore order. Every department had its revolutionary junta, headed by desperate adventurers who were sim- ply out for the loot, and under such conditions prosperity and progress were absolutely impossible.s To in yoke the ordinary processes of the law would have been absurd, and ZeIaya adopted the only feasible means for suppressing the disturbing element He seized the malcontents wherever they could be found, stood them lip against wall and shot them. I dare say a good many innocent men were executed, but in such an emergency the rule is: When in doubt shoot the prisoner It seems hideously cruel here in the United States, but if there is any other way of dealing with the habitual Niearaguan revolutionist ex- perience has failed to discover it. Diaz did exactly the same thing when he first took the reins in Mexico, and there is no denying the fact that Be laya's subsequent administration has been the nearest approach to civilized government that Nicaragua has ever enjoyed. Schools have been estab- lished, laws have been enforced, prop erty rights have been respected and a number of great commercial enter prises have been set on foot. The re- cent drastic measures that have been taken to tip new revolt in the bud at Managua seem to me entirely justi- fable"

Weather Talk.

When men cannot get their brains together on other subjects, they fall into friendly discussion of the weather. In the last eight or ten years I have talked weather with 10000 clever fel- lows, and the unanimous verdict is that the seasons are changing, that Chriat- mas is greener than it used to be, and that winter fingers seandaIously long in the lap of spring; that we have no cold weather until January; and no autumn until December; that blizzards come in April which used to come in February; that roses which used to bloom in May now bud in June; that navigation in the Hudson closes later every year; that sleighfng that used to be excellent in November is now poor in December and January; that skating is better in the rinks than on lakes and ponds; that the grounding sees his shadow later by several weeks than he saw it ten years ago.-New fork Press.

M'CULlOCH SPEAKS.

A large number Of people from
different portions of the county
gathered in town Saturday to
hear Congressman McCulloch
and his opponent, Hon. T. O..
Fitzpatrick, discuss the political
issues of the day. Disappoint-
ment was felt when it was found
that the republican candidate
would not be present. Mr.. Firz.
patrick, McCulloch says, has not
been present at any of the ap-
pointments, and it would seem
certain that he does not care to
defend his party in joint debate
with Mr.. McCulloch. AT 2 p. m.
the crowd assembled at the court
house and listened to good dem
ocratic doctrine from our able
congressman fortwo hours. The
speaker arraigned the republican
party for it's attitude towards the
trusts and made quite a lengthy
and sound argument on the ques.
ton Of Imperialism. 1t was an
able discussi on of the ques-
tons of the present campaign
from a democratic standpoint.
Mr.. McCulloch has made many
speeches in Sharp county and
has done honest labor for our
democracy. He should have a
full vote in Sharp county next
Tuesday. 1t is probable that our
people will have no other oppor-
tunity Of voting for him, as he
has announced that he will retire
from congress at the expiration
Of his next term.
