THE REAL REASONS WHY THE
"AMERICAN" PARTY WAS
STARTED AND is CAR
RIED ALONG.

I. Tom kearns wanted to be re-
elected Senator against the wishes of
the people and President Smith of the
Mormon church refused to help him,
turned a deaf ear to Toms pleading
and TOMS threats had no effect what
ever on Mr.. Smith except to make him
more determined not to help Tom and
not to get into politics.
2. President Joseph r. Smith of
the Mormon chuch prevented ex-Sena-
tor Cannon from "skinning". the
church out of $25o,o00 on the church's
issue of bonds.
8. Ex-Senators kearns and Cannon
want revenge. That's all.

The Fair Weather Man.

A circular containing valuable sug-
gestions for next years rife practice
by the members of the Maine National
Guard was recently sent out by Col.
Elliott c. Dill of Portland, for several
years the efficient inspector general Of
rife practice, and the circular was pub
lished in the Journal OF course the
guardsmen find it's technical advice
useful, but the editor of the Manches-
ter. n. H., Union also finds in it the
text for an excellent sermon. This Is
the closing admonition of the circular
which may well be noted and applied
personally by every reader and which
reads as follows: Don't pick the
good days. They are excellent for
train for all-round good marksman-
ship" Of this bit of advice, the Union
says:
Colonel Dill, in all probability, had
no intention of posing as sermon
izer. He is essentially a soldier, and
it is reasonable to suppose that his con-
Guiding injunction was given solely
with mind to the development of
| crack rifemen. As matter of fact
| however. he has delivered, in this
| brief paragraph. homily which may
| be safely followed in almost all walks
| of life. The fair weather sailor is not
| necessarily sailor at all. The man

| in SO far as such avoidance is con-
| sistent with his duty: but who, hav-
ing encountered an obstacle, faces it
boldly and overcomes it. The greater
tie number of obstacles thus overcome.

counters"

The Isle Of Pines,

The Isle of Pines is little place and
not of much consequence. anyway. but
ever since we won Cuba's freedom, in
1898, the little island has succeeded
in keeping itself very prominently be-
fore the public. By the treaty which
ended the war, the Isle of Pines, wise
ly. or unwisely. was declared a part of
Cuba instead of being retained as
American property. Since that time,
the population of the island, or at
least the Americans who are the con-
trolling element there, have been dis
satisfied with Cuban rule and anxious
to become a part of the United States.
Now these American residents have
issued a declaration of independence
from Cuba. and organized a new gov
eminent in anticipation of being recog-
niZed and adopted sooner or later by
Uncle Sam.
They are doing much as the settlers
of Texas did, three-quarters of a CEN
fury ago. when they broke loose from
Mexico with the hope of becoming a
part of the United States. The Isle of
Pines affair, however, is a very small
one, so small, in fact, that the revolu-
ton has appeared pretty much after
the style of certain revolutions
lions which occur periodically in Gen.
trail and South America. The island
has about 1900 square miles, and it's
population is between 1000 and 5000,
of whom about one-tenth are Ameri-
cans. But for that matter Americans
were in numerical minority when
Texas seeded from Mexico when
Hawaii overthrow it's dusky royal fam
lily and when California came into the
union.
The Americans in the Isle of Pines
own four-fifths of the island, and con-
troll the affairs. They have organized
a government. have raised the Ameri-
can flag and have gone about the affair
in a businesslike spirit. Now that the
island seeded, what will the United
States and Cuba do about it? Per-
haps Cuba will gladly allow the island to
become american property. just to
show it's good will; prehaps it will ask
a moderate sum for the island, and
perhaps it will be unwilling to let it
go under any consideration. Cuba is
hardly in position to suppress the up
rising, if such it may be termed, and
the revolution promises to be sue
cessful one, unless our own government
sends a warship and regiment and
compels the Americans in the
island to haul down their
own flag and become peaceable sub
jects of Cuba. 1t is an interesting sit
uation and it will require considerable
diplomacy to straighten out the tam
gle so that everybody will be satisfied
and justice done to all concerned.
