THE FIRFMEN's BALL.
Their Eleventh Annual Event, Like All
the Others, Proves Grand
Success.

The eleventh annual ball Of the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Fremen at
the opera house Wednesday night was
a marked social success, and each sue
ceeding ball Of the Firemen gains Tsth-
or than diminishes in briIliancy over
the proceeding one.
Over sixty couples participated in
the grand march, led by Charles Sher-
man and Mrs. 9. E. Fuller, while fully
100 spectators were there to enjoy the
music and watch the merry dancers
and admire the decorations. The grand
march did not start until little after
the usual 9 o'clock, but from then to
nearly i've in the morning the time
was we'll taken care Of and dull care
was left to take care Of itself.
The decorations were neat and tasty,
and the opera house never looked bet
ter, while the ladies in handsome eve
ming gowns and the gentlemen in full
dress added beauty to the scene. Few
out-of-town visitors we're there and the
crowd was purely GUOdIand one.
Refreshments were served through
out the evening on the stage by the
ladies Of the Catholic church. The
music was furnished by the Denver
Theatre orchestra, and was exception
ally good

tinue to be with US each year.

Ii is, in a way. a relief to the country
to learn that Gen. Otis has been re-
lieved.
It is fully a year ago that Mr.. Nc
Kinley's personal representative in the
Philippines began sending bulletins
that the @war is over" These official
fairy tales have been repeated with
unblushIng regularity about every two
weeks since, and yet the latest reports
Of the losses of our troops and the
killing Of FiIipinOs show a bigger aver
age for the first three months Of this
year than for the preceding quarter.
Gen. Otis insisted at the beginning
OF the trouble, that with $1,000 troops
he could soon end the instruction. -
When this force proved utterly mad
aquatic he was given more than 10000
"a larger army than the United States
ever employed against foreign foe.
Yet the sinsurgent bands" swarm every
where, There is not a town or a dis
trict where Americans would be safe
without military protection. And even
the optimistic Otis admits in letter,
shat large body of troops must be
kept in the islands indefinitely"
Macarthur may or may not do better,
but the country will be glad that Otis
is soYer," if the war isn't.-New York

GUS municipalities. The pupils are fur
nished with books and necessary sup
plies free of charge. The teachers, who
are better paid, by the way, than those
in the United States, are Cubans. The
boards of education are composed of
Cubans, the alcalde of the town being
ex-otficio member of the board. Each
municipality conducts it's own educa-
tional affairs exclusively. In short, it
is evidently Cuban public school sys-
TEN, and the people, who at its introduc-
ton overwhelmed its author with abuse,
are now devoted to it and to him. 1t is
a noble work, we'll planned, and admira-
bly, executed.

Mr.. Blaine called him ''the best plat.

few viii question Mr.. Frye's right to
that distinction. His statistics are
accurate, his facts are facts, his argu-
ments are unaSsailable, and his earnest
forcetul delivery holds the close atten-
ton of his audiences. Those who hear
him once want to hear him again, and
his many friends here wish that duty
might call him oftener to Belfast.

Never before in the history of the
United States has the output of South
ern iron ore and pig iron, lumber, coal,
and coke, been so large as it has been in
the past two years, and not for years,
if ever, have the prices been so high.
Never before was so large proportion
of southern products shipped from
southern ports. Never before has money
been loaned at such low rates of inter
ess. All this under the gold standard
and protective tariff Yet the South
will probably vote almost solidly for
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
and free trade, as personified in Bryan.
She will also vote for Bryans Philippine
and China ideas, and to cut off the great
and growing oriental market for her
cotton goods.

could discourse more learnedly upon

Mr.. Bryan is the wealthiest candidate

We have received, with the compli
ments of the Republican National
Committee, a handsome volume of 3ss
pages from the press of the Doubleday
x Mcclure Co, containing the speeches
and addresses of William Mckinley
from March /, 1897 to MAY 80. 1900 The
frontispiece is a reproduction of steel
engraving that was made in 1898 at the
Bureau Of Engraving and Printing,
Washington, and is regarded as one of
!Ae best likenesses of President Nc
klnley that have ever been made. The
speeches and addresses cover a wide
range OF subjects, and are arranged in
the volume in chronological order, with
a table of contents and an index. 1t is
safe to say that no more remarkable
series of addresses has come from any
OF our public men. Their literary
quality is of the highest order, they
are imbued with the loftiest patriotism
and the spirit of true manhood and
deal with momentous questions from
the standpoint of a statesman. The
book is a valuable contribution to the
political history of the time.
The recent visit of over fifteen hum
dred Cuban school teachers to this
country has called attention to the
striking progress made in the Cuban
schools. At the end of the war prac-
tically no school system existed on the
island. In November, 1899, Alexis
Everett Frye was entrusted. with the
responsibility of re-creating public
school system for Cuba, work which
he undertook without remuneration,
and after careful investigation of the
local educational conditions he framed
and put into effect the system which
now exists. There are now 3,O79 schools
on the island, attended by 14O,O 900 pupils.
More than a million dollars worth of
modern school furniture and appliances
have been bought and sent to the vari-

Before going any farther with their
arguments the Democratic leaders
should explain why it is that, if Presi-

go ahead SCATTERING the republic and
establishing an empire.
