The British trade unions had not In

the way of bribery; but every con- gressman representing an agricultural district can testify to the good results of sending to each man of substance a neat package of seeds bearing the autograph of the congressman in lieu of a postage stamp. It is not. Of course, the value of the seeds that gains the good will of the voter, but rather the written evidence that he, humble farmer, is remembered, even to his initials, the proper spelling of his name, and his postoffice address. by the man he has helped to elect
 All congressman are not demagogues, of course; in fact, it is safe to say the majority of them are not, but yet they are very careful not to miss a trick. especially in an election year like this, by relinquishing in the slightN est degree the hold they may have upon the voters of their respective dis trtcts. The total sum involved. in the free-seed question is about a quarter of a million dollars. It is not a large sum. comparatively speaking. and com gress may try to think it not worth 2aving. But the present administra- ton has been almost perniciously &C., tive in abolishiug perqulsities, cutting red tape and getting things down to a business basis generally; and sena- tors and representatives have, perhaps. unwittingly, caught a little of the few CT of reform. It Is not so much the amount of money that the honest minded people of the country care for as the principles involved in the chean method of vote getting, Let the con- gressmen attend to the legitimate du- ties for which they are sent to Wash ington and let the farmer buy his seed.

 The willy one presented sixteenksuch hIanlxs filled out and signed to the Colbert Superintendent. He drew voucher on 6 bank for the amounts Anderson got his money and the Super Intendent entered a memorandum to taIxa out the amount from the teachers March salaries This was In January.
 When the March pay day came around sixteen Colbert county peda- gogues found their stipends short $9.75. They waxed wroth and called on the County Superintendent He showed them the filled out blanks. They de- clared that their names were forged to said blanks. The County superintendent had to dig deep down into his privy purse for $156. The same thing happened, to the DeKalb County Superintendent.

 She carried the causes that brought on the Spanish war. She and her fllibusterlng companions that slipped in and out among the Florida keys. She carried the far reaching consequences of that war--consequenc- es that spread from pole to pole and touched every modern nation. She carried the hand that was to stretch forth and pull down the last Spanish flag on the Western Hemisphere. She carried the time -honored policy of the United States of non-interference, for any reason with any existing govern ment, carried 1t away to Cuba and 1t was metamorphosed on those island shores into a new policy which made the Union a world power, with all it's responsibilities. with all It's dangers and with all It's rewards. It carried out the old and brought in the new. Cuban liberty was its cargo and new glory and a new future for the United States.

 The next afternoon Captain Elliott of the Mallory was stricken with par alysis and because of this untoward happening the plan of towing the Nal lory was abandoned and her cargo was taken aboard the Three Friends"
 The Waiting Cubans.
 In the meanwhile communication with the schooner ordell had been ef- fected and the seventy-five Cubans aboard her wsre overjoyed to learn that their patient wait of more than month was over and they would at last be given a chance at the fighting on the island. The seventy-five Cubans climbed aboard the Three Friends, ? gave three rousing cheers for Cuba Libra and the last stage of the jour ney was begun
 Approaching the Cuban coast the wheel was turned over to Santos, a Cuban pilot, who missed the Cardenas light house in the rain and all but ran the vessel ashore. It developed after wards. too. that he had also missed the agreed landing place by two miles. A life boat was lowered and with Gen. eral Vasquez, Charles Silva and five other Cubans the first landing was made. They had expected on shore to effect a junction with the force of Gen eral Lacreth. They were under the very walls of a Spanish fort and in full view of the Spaniards. In the meanwhile the other boats were filled with men and arms and were being rowed ashore
 As soon as he saw the situation Gen eral Vasquez and four men ran to the door of the fort, and pistols in hand, guarded 1t to prevent the Spanish sol diers from coming out. In spite of the dangerous situation the Cubans de- cided to brave the danger and make the landing.
 AS the last boats were going in a new Ganger slipped up in the rear in the shape of a Spanish gunboat Her powerful search lights revealed the Cuban's digging in the sand. burying the arms and ammunition. The Cubans opened fire on the gun boat with their rifles and the search H. its were put out of business. But the Spaniards ashore had awakened 70 the situation and the Cubans on the beach were fighting an enemy on either hand.

 "Cut your anchor line and give her full speed" was the order of Captain Broward The Three FrlendsS shaped a course to the northwest. The span iards had sighted her and was in run pursuit with a great advantage. For the filibuster was inside the bay and the Spaniard was on the outside cut ting diagonally across to head her on. The rain was falling. however, and the heavy smoke of the Three Friends" was blown directly Into the eye of the Spaniard.
 Grasping the advantage of this situ- alton Captain Broward tackled and lost himself to the Spaniard who futilely chased the smoke. And back to Key West and safety the Three Friends made her way.
