PREDICTS CIVIL WAR
William J. Bryan Predicts That Internal Stife Between PoIi- tIcians Will PrecipItate
 Civil War in Cuba.

''l predict that Cuba will be the scene ot evil war, that internal strife growing out of the dissen- sions among the political leaders will temporarily paralyze the in> dustries of the island"
 Such is the oplnion formed by William J. Bryan, as the result of his rocent trip to Cuba.
 In an article prepared for pub lication Mir. Bryan says:
 "That the people of Cuba are capable of self-government is not question open for dispute. Hem " Clay declared, in his defense of the independence of the South American republics, that God never made a people incapable of self.goyernment, that it was the doctrine of thrones and a reflec- ton on Jehovah to say that He created people incapable of self government and left them to the governr ent of kings and emper- DTS. Clay's logic is sound.
 "Capacity for government IS not thing to be acquired or to be bestowed it is inherent in the people. As individuals differ Tn wisdom, i'll self-restraint and in moral character, so nations differ, but it cannot be said that any na- ton has reached perfection i'll the science of government or Tn the at of administration neither can 1t he said that any nation is so low down in the scale of civilization that it needs a foreign master.
 Cuban independence will not give the people government free from fault, but It will give them government as good aS they deserve to have-a government that will improve as the people themselves make prog ress in virtue and intelligence,
 Free government does not mean that every citizen will have just such government aS he wants 1t simply means that the people will have such a govern ment as the majority desire, and that eacb individual can present his views to his fellows with the confidence that whatever IS best for all will ultimately prevail" :"

WILL THEY EXPLAIN?
Sqire Tharp Asks Some Pertinent Questions Concerning Recent Actions of the County
 Central Committe.
To the Editor of The Journal.

To the Editor of The Journal.
 The undersigned, citizen, tax payer and democrat, of Big Bot tom township, Independence coun- ty, Arkansas, would respectfully ask any one, more especially the majority of the democratic county central committee, as rendered at it's meeting on May 24, 1902, to explain to the satisfaction of all true democrats, the grounds for their actions in regard to the pri- mary of March 29, 1902.
 notice from the report of the canyassing committee, consisting of J. B. Gray, G. H. Thompson, l.. J. Braey and l. A. Kaneaster, that at their meeting to recount the votes of the county, the re- turns from the following town ships had been tempered with, to wit: Ashley, Barren, Big Bottom, Greenbrier, Union and Washing ton.
 Now, 1 would like to know up- on what grounds this majority of the central committee base their decision. This canyassing con- mittee showed by their report that the returns from six townships counted out different from the first returns, but still, this majority, by their actions of May 24, exoner- ated five of these townships and said by their actions that Big Bot tom township (the only one in the county in the days of need that never failed to return safe dem- ocratic majority was responsible for this fraud.
 | I have conversed with numer- ous democrats in various town ships of the county, and I believe, from the general sentiment of all true democrats, that an explana- ton is necessary from the parties who are responsible for this un- democratic act.
 l have always voted the demo- cratic ticket since 1 attained my majority and have advocated dem- ocratic principles, but if the action of the majority of oul' democratic county central committee of May 24 is democratic, 1 have been wrongfuily taught.
 Hoping that this will not be of fensive to any one, but that 1t may bring forth the necessary explana- tion, and without this explanation I land, I believe, all true demo- crats( will believe there has been a wrong done.
 Fraternally submitted,
 JOHN T. THARP.

A country vicar some time ago took into his service youth as house-boy.

"I'ye spoken to him several times" said he, but, really, he ap- pears to get slower andslower," "Yes, vicar" agreed his mother, smiling, Alfred was allus like that" But" 1" rejoined the vicar, it is nothing to be amused at; dts a serious thing for a boy to get into such hahlts-a mat ter 10 worry over" q used to think so myself, vicar" said the old lady, until one Sunday you preached a sermon adwisin' Us allus to look at the bright side O things, then l start cd to look at the shiny side of Alfred, and thinks l, Well, he may be terribly steady in his movements, but there 5 one comfort: if that there boy hap pened to hey ben horse and cart, the man as owned him would never be afraid of being summonsed for furious driving.

CUTTING DIAMONDS.
What q Jeweler Says of Discovery of
 New System.

q see in some papers that a new way of cutting diamonds has been dis covered" says a jeweler. ''fhere are almost as many new ways of cutting diamonds discovered as systems to beat the bank at Monte Carlo, and they are about as successful. As a matter of fact, diamond cutting has been reduced to an exact science. The two best-known systems are the bril- liant and rose cuts. To obtain the greatest possible brillianee with the least waste stones are brilliant-cut- that is, cut with flat top, or table, as 1t IS called. Rose-cut stones are cut without the top table and are flat in back. \ bigger diamond can be produced by rose-cutting than by brilliant-cutting, but it will not pos sess half the brillianee of the latter. Rose diamonds are used largely in in- cru8ted jewelry."
