BURGLARS AT TRIP.
Make an Organized Raid on the
Business Men of the Town.

Burglars made a raid OIL the business
mel of Trip the other night. They first
entered the hardware store of Permann
& Ehresmann, tapping the till to the
amount of $1.50. They then broke into
the saloon of Seller Bros. Nothing was
missed, but it is supposed they helped
themselves plcntifully to drink and ci-
CARS. The burglars next turned their at
tention to Judge Longs law Office, opened
his safe, which fortunately was not lock-
ed. broke open the safe money drawer,
but found it minus of money. G. T..
Hirsch, who occupies the same office
with Judge Long, had his safe opened al
so, but no money was found.

Causes u Sensation.

Causes u Sensation.
The official announcement of the ahan-
donment of the proposed visit of King
Edward and Queen Alexandria to Ire.
land, whereby the ministers assume re.
sponsibility for the imperial boycott,
causes keen discussion. the general tone
of which is distinctly adverse to the ac-
ton of the cabinet, which is interpreted
as displaying petty spite and spleen.
The suggestion sought to be conveyed.
both by the announcement itself and the
comment of the ministerial organs. that
the decision arrived at was directly due
to the outburst of some of the Irish
members i'll the house of commons when
the news of the disaster to Methuen's
column was officially communicated to
the house, is declared by hostile critics to
be obviously false, as it was announced
weeks ago that the visit would be post
none1.

NOTABLE EXTRACTS FROM THE BIG DAILIEs' CoRRH- E sPoNDENTs S S S }

President Rooseyelts determination to be nominated for the Presidency by the next Republican National Convention IS becoming more apparent every day. Ever since he succeeded the late President Mc- Kinley last September, MT. Roosevelt las been busily occupied in laying plans for winning delegates to his support. He has lost no opportunity to place himself before the public in favorable light. He has held conferences with his party 3 leaders from nearly everyeCongressfonal district in the United States with view to ascertaininG the trend of sentiment in their respective localities. As a result, his candidacy has been indorsed by the conventions of four States, namely, Kan sas. Missouri, Pennsylvania and Minne- sota. /
 The President made a strong effort to secure the indorsement of the Illinois His administration has been boomed in several other conventions which failed. however, to announce support of him for second term.
 allegiance to the President to the extent of favoring his nomination. The action of the Pennsylvania convention was due in large measure to Senator Quay. The Keystone boss has been on intimate terms at the White House of late and In re- turn for executive favors he threw the weight of his influence in the convention on the side of President Roosevelt. While the Minnesota convention did not fndorse the administrations Cuban reciprocity program 1t declared in favor of Roose- vent for 1904.
 The President has been in office only ten months, which shows conclusively that Colonel Roosevelt has not lost any time in forwarding his own interests It is unusual for convention to declare in favor of a candidate for the Presi- dency as long as two years in advance Of the national convention.

CUBA'S CURSE.
Is That of Dire Poverty, Dense Ignorance and Corruption.

Ignorance and Corruption.
 Washington Post
 T have lived in Cuba for the past three years, and believe I understand the con ditions of the island fairly well" said Mr. Eugene A. Nelson, Formerly of St. Loulss at the Riggs House.
 "Cuba's main curse Is poverty. The common people are abjectly poor. We don't know in the United States the alphabet of penury such as exists in Cuba. The masses buy only one meal at a time. They purchase a cents worth of sugar or >three cents worth of meat. This Is true of by far the larger per cent. of the population.
 ''The masses are also. as might be ex- pected from their Restitution, intensely ignorant. They want national govern ment of their own simply because there is ever the hope that with independence will come the opportunity to loot, and to divide the wealth of the rich. If they are not to be given chance to raid the pos sessions of the wealthy, of what use Is freedom? The patriotic idea with this class Is nonresident. A government of their own that does not give them some money Is not worthy their countenance.
 Here Is another curse of Cuba. Every body down there wants to be paid for doing any service. Bribery and corrup- tion have existed as institutions so long that the public is thoroughly permeated with the notion that mankind is for sale and that money Is the supreme power This has resulted in a state of rOttenness and decentralization that will require a generation ortwo to efface.
 Annexation is the only cure for Cuba's s ills. The best people of the island want it, and want 1t now. Something has to he done. President Palma Is not a Diaz If his government should be in existence year from now l shall be surprised"

Let Jones Be Reorganized.

Chicago Chronicle.
 The fact that in an official communi- cation to the President, Governor Jeffer- son Davis of Arkansas reads Senator James K. Jones out of the Democratic party is calculated to give the country a serious jolt
 Mir. Jones is a patriotic gentl, man, who was commander-in-chief of the Demo- cratic campaign forces in the last two Presidential contests He was in hearty sympathy with the platform and the can didates. He never entertained doubt that the ratio between silver and gold was the one only test of a mans Democracy He was one of the original advocates and one of the latest defenders of the sur render of the Democratic party to the Populists.
 Many Democrat has been read out of the party by Jones himself Many a man who ventured to assert that there might be something in Democracy in addition to the issue that was devised to catch the votes of renegade Republicans in the far West was told by Jones to move on. Jones was one of the principal interpreters of party doctrine for long time
 Now the Governor of Arkansas Demo- crat. of course. hearing that the Presi- dent is likely to appoint the Senator to oflce as Democrat, writes to say that he Is not Democrat; that he has been repGdiated by his own State, and rhat if he Is to have Federal office he should be named as an out-and-out Republican
 The Chronicle is mindful of some of MT. JOnes's unfortunate mistakes as a campaign manager, but it would not cast the interest of harmony, it would reor- ganize him and give him an humber but an honorable post in the organiza- ton. Let us have peace.
