JANAICA'S CALAMITY.

Enough is now known concerning Mondays
earthquake in the West Indies to snow that
beautiful ana much afflicted Jamaica has ex-
perienced a fresh disaster Of appalling proper
uons. The worst effects were felt only in the
southeastern part of the island, but, unfortu-
nately, that region included the capital of the
colony, q city Of over $4,000 inhabitants. Most
of the homes and places of business, the hotels
and wharves Of Kingston have been destroyed
the principal damage having been wrought by
fire, while something like four hundred persons
have been killed. thousands have been injured
and a considerable part of the total popula-
ton has been temporarily deprived of shelter.
Heartrending as are the accounts of the pres
ent situation, there are few consoling circum-
stances. In the tropical climate of jamaica
surrounded as it is by the warm waters Of the
Caribbean, exposure to the open air cannot
entail great suffering. 1t is not unreasonable
to believe that an adequate supply of food is
available, or soon will be- Some of the hos
pltals in Jamaica seem to be standing and in
serviceable condition. The fire appears to have
Deen controlled In time to prevent complete
destruction of the city, and the authorities are
preserving order and organizing measures for
the relief of the suffering. 1t will be a colos-
sal task to minister to even the most pressing
needs OF Kingston but already a good begin
ming has been made. and if outside help is re-
quired 1T will no doubt be promptly given
How long 1t will be before capital and indus
try IN Jamaica recover from this stunning blow
IS grave question: but the nation to which tbe
island belongs cherishes lively and practical
interest in its welfare and is not given to doing
things by halves

From The Springfield Republican
Governor Hughes's high conception Of his ad.
mnistration IS well illustrated by these latess
appointments to important offices. which have al
ways been eagerly sought by the politicians
and which have been used by previous governors
as the pillars OF political machine.
The Hughes nominations excellent in every
way. but their crowning quality Is the disregard
the Governor has shown for party considerations.
