The people we met in Holland wear
wooden shoes to teach them patience
and humility. With wooden shoes no
frenzied financier of Holland will ever
travel the fast road of speculation,
Slip on bucket shop banana peek and
fall on an innocent bystander who
has coughed up his savings and given
them to the honest financier to safely
invest. The bank of Holland is the old
wooden stocking and money never
comes out of the stocking unless there
is string to it, and the string is the
heart-string of an honest people, that
will stand no tritiing. If a dishonest fl
nancier came to Holland from any
other country, and did any of his
dirty work, the women of Holland,
who handle the funds. would give him
such hazing that he would never
open his three-cornered monte layout
in any other country. 1t is a country
where you get the right change back,
and the cows give 1Skarat milk, and
the hens have not learned to lay, cold
storage eggs. 1t is the country FOR me.

And we left such country ana such
a PEOPLE to come here to Cuba. where
the population now comprises the
meanest features of the desperate and
wicked Spaniards, beaten at their own
game of loot, the thickness of the
native Cuban, flushed with pride be-
cause his big American brother helped
him drive away the Spaniard that he
could never have gotten rid of alone.
and with no respect for the American
who helped, and only meets him re-
specially because he is afraid of being
thrown into the ocean if he is impu-
dent and the worst class of yankee
grafters and highway robbers that
have ever been allowed to stray from
the land of the free. That is what
Cuba is to-day.
SoulIess Yankee corporations have
got hold of most of the branches of
business that there is any money in.
and the things that do not pay and
never can be made to pay are for sale
to tenderfeet. The Cuban hates the
Yankee, the Yankee hates the Cuban.

as they can borrow money for some
one else to pay, after they are dead.
but within ten years the taxes will eat
the people so they will be head over
heels in debt to the Yankee and the
Spaniard, the German and the En-
glishman, the F'renchman and the
Italian, and some day warships will
sail into Havana harbor. over the
submerged bones of the Maine, and
there will be a fight for juicy morsels
of the Cuban dead horse, by the con-
gregated buzzards of strange navies,
or they will shake dice for the carcas.

Havana, Cuba.-My Dear old Gre2S-

couple of days after We left Belgium,

heard of that duke that marie :
Queen WilheImina we thought we were
going to a country where men We're
cruel to their wives. and swatted them
over the head when things didn't go
right, but when we saw the queen
riding with her husband, as free from
ostentation as a department store clerk
would ride out with his cash-girl Vile,
and saw happiness beaming on the
face of the queen and her husband,
and saw them squeeze hands and look
lovingly into each others eyes, we
made up our minds that you couldn |
believe these newspaper scandals.
And when we saw the broad-Shoul-
dered, broad-chested and broad-every-

ed that it would be brave or reckless

of them, and mighty dangerous, be-

For two or three days we were not
robbed. and L do not believe there is a
dishonest man or woman in Holland,
except one. There was one woman
that played it on dad in Amsterdam,
but think she played him for a joke,
for she laughed all the time Dad was
much struck at seeing the women
selling milk from their little carts,
hauled by teams of dogs. and he ne
gotiated with a woman for dog team
and cart, and all one day dad and | put
on wooden shoes and Dutch clothes
and drove the dog team around town,
and so we had the time of our lives
more fun than l ever had outside of
circus, but the shoes skinned our feet.
and when the dogs laid down to rest
and dad couldn't talk dog language to
make them get UP and go ahead, he
kicked the off dog with his wooden
shoe, and the dog got up and grabbed
a mouthful of dads ample pants and
shook dad till his teeth were loose,
and woman driving another mess OF
dogs had to come and choke the off
dog so he wouldn't swallow dad, pants
and all. Dad gave her a dollar for res
cuing him, and what do you think? Say,
she pulled an old stocking of money
out of her bosom and counted out SO
cents in change and gave it back to
dad, and only charged 4 cents for saw
ing his life and that couldn't occur in
any other country, cause in most
places they would take the dollar and
strike him for more.
Dad wanted to take the dog team
and cart to Milwaukee to give it to a
friend who sells red hot weiners and
so we arranged to have the team load
ed on the boat. but just before the
boat sailed the dog team was lying
down on the dock, sleeping and
scratching f1eas, when the woman dad
bought the team of came along and
spoke to the dogs in Dutch, and, say.
those dogs woke up and started on a
regular runaway down the dock. after
the laughing woman, and disappeared
up the street just as the boat whistled
to pull in the gang planks. Dad and
stood on the deck and saw the team

We wish our editors would correct

the Rev Jones'; but if the first name
is unknown, for the sake of decency,
let us say REV. Mr.. Jones' 1t costs
very little to be courteous.
"You seem to have been very dis
courteous to that lady who just left
the store" said the ftoOr-walker, re-

= The only class of high schools tha-
have any hope of a permanent career
are those that are established away
from thickly populated cities. Where-
ever there are sufficient numbers OF
people to levy a tax upon themselves
and support a graded school this will
be done, and no subscription school
can enter into competition with
school where everything is free. we
have in some Of our towns excellent
schools that are doing good work and
making Roadway, on the subscription
plan, and some of these schools in one
way and another may be able to hold
their own for a few years, but sooner
or later the people will demand the
free school, supported by taxation, and
whether we like it or not, the others
must give way before the public
schools. However, there is fine OPP
uortunity before the associational
school that is properly located. y
high and healthful section in coun-
try community, free from the vices OF
the average railroad town, will con-
tinue to command patronage at home
and abroad. Indeed the boarding pat
ronage is the class that means most
70 a high school, and parents are look
ing about more and more for safe
and thorough schools where they can
send their boys and girls. The class
of teaching that is done in a good
academy is, we take it, of a much
higher grade than is true of the grad.
ed school; and for this reason these
rural high schools will always have
the advantage of the graded schools.
But there is not enough Appreciation
of solid work to give the former Il
living run side by side with the latter.
The associations that are thinking
about establishing schools should go
to the country by all means in tho
world.

the most of a good opening. Good openings sur
round every young if he did but know it.
The young man who sees them is the one who adj
vances. Energy, fxity of purpose, patience self
denial and economy will make any young man rich.
1t undoubtedly is true that young man of
to-day who with a moderate small capital,
aspres to go into business for himself finds his way
barred by great corporations which seem to have
monopolized the field against all newcomers. This
evil is much less serious than it appears to be, how
ever These corporations trusts or whatever you
may choose to call them, are, from the public view
point, both blessing and curse. In a country
like this, with quick and intelligent people holding
the control of affairs in their hands, public
evil can continue long The attacks now being
made upon the trusts in several directions whatever
be the motives which inspire them, are educating
the people to a of their duty, knowledge
of their injuries and consciousness of their own
powers which certainly must have quick and
powerful effect. No power in this country ever can
become so great to stand against united public
opinion All the blessings represented by the trusts
will be preserved all the evils represented by them
sooner later will be done away with.
But assuming these evils at their greatest,
there is weapon with which to fight them which
already has proved its great potency in England,

equals the corporate amount. Harmony of course
is all-important, but this will be recognized
basic necessity. The same salaries which paid

of few milonaires will afford fair wages to all the
capitalists of cooperative concern with many sub

concern by enabling them if necessary, to undersell

In word. the opportunities for young men in
this country to-day great if not greater than
