The benefcent influence of American
civilization in Cuba is evident on every
hand Take, for instance, the national
sport, bull fighting. Formerly it was
a popular sport anybody could conduct
the contests. Since American civiliza-
ton entered, this has been wiped out
not bull fighting, but the liberty to en-
gage in it freely. An American syndi-
cate has cornered the business, has Sc
cured from the Cuban Congress mon
opoly of it. Being now licensed and
thus sanctioned by the government,
bull fighting has risen from rough,
vulgar pastime to genteel sport, just
as the saloon is made virtuous and
noble by reason of being licensed.

The Equitable Taxpayers AssOcia-
ton, of Chippewa Falls, composed
largely of big land owners, proposes
to go actively after the matter of good
roads in the new portions of Wisconsin.
They will vigorously support measures
in the legislature looking toward road
Improvement, and will also labor with
the county and town officials. 1t APP
pears that their efforts will be rather
to secure new roads than to macadam-
ize or otherwise highly improve the
existing highways.

At last the moral uplift has reached
California. 1t had to rap several times
before its presence was noticed, but
finally the latch was lifted. The gov
ernor has prohibited those two shining
lights of American civilization, Messrs.
Jeffries and Johnson, from pulling off
the joint debate in the sign language
which they had arranged. His Excel
lency explains that when the fight was
arranged he thought it was to be just a
friendly boxing contest, with turkey
feather pillows for gloves and fifteen
second rounds to which there could be
no objection. But Congress put in a
few remarks to the effect that if Cali
fornia allowed the j debate no APP
preparation would be made for Pana-
ma exposition at San Francisco The
governor Immediately saw his error, and
bringing his number twelves down en-
phatically, declared there should be no
prize fight in Frisco. Another case of

The platform adopted by the Mime
sofa Republican state convention is
surely broad, including endorsement of
everything that might be expected to
win votes. Among other things, it en-
dorses the present tariff law, and also
endorses Senator Clapp, who bitterly
fought and voted against it. Evidently
the standpatters of Minnesota don't
want to read anybody out of the party
at least, not until after election.

PROHIBITION VS..
| COUNTY OPTION

We are in receipt of circular issued
by the Prohibition party, consisting of
an open letter from j. Burritt Smith,
chairman of the Prohibition state COM
mittee, to Capt. VIM. Mitchell Lewis,
candidate for governor. The burden of
Mr.. Smiths effusion is an effort to
show that the officials and leaders of
both the leading parties are utterly
and irredeemably corrupt and bad, that
county option is a make-shift attempt
to control corrupt officials, and that the
only hope of salvation lies in putting
into power the Prohibition party.
That great many, perhaps major
ity, of the leading politicians of the
two leading parties are unreliable, if
not actually corrupt, must be admitted.
Whether or not the leaders of the Pro-
hibition party would be true and imma-
culate if given power cannot be deter
mined until they succeed in getting into
office. Corrupt politicians naturally
flock to the successful parties, and fire.
quently candidates of clean records and
fine promises succumb to temptation
when they have achieved power. Per
sonal character of candidates is an ele-
ment to be considered by itself, and can
never be determined by the party to
which they belong. There are good
and bad men in all parties. 1t was
ever thus, and probably always will be-.
Apparently Mr.. Smith comedies that
county option would be an Improvement
on present conditions. H avs
County option is but little struggle
by the better class of Republicans and
Democrats to save the people from the
bad officials and bad policy of their own
parties. If county option is a good
thing in itself, we fail to see what diff
ference it makes whether it enmates
from Republicans, Democrats, Social
lists or Prohibitionists.
The matter of the statewide or ma
tion-wide prohibition is not involved in
a consideration of county option. They
are based on entirely different princi-
pies, and the fact that one opposes ma
tional or state prohibition, does not at
all argue again his sincerity in support
ing county option. If a voter believes
in national prohibition, believes that it
is of more Importance than all other
issues, and believes that its success will
be best promoted by means of distinct
party, it is clearly his duty to support
the Prohibition party. However, in
view of the fact that we have many
important political problems pressing
for solution, that the old parties present
organizations to work through, that
there are plenty of good and able men
in the old parties to select from, and
that gradual progress is always prefer
able to revolution in politics, we see no
reason for condemning anti-saloon vot-
ers for remaining in the Old parties.

Dinner on Christmas day" saws T.ieu-

was the only square meal we were able
to treat ourselves to between the middle of
November and the end of February. -
Forty-eight degrees of frost, and a biting.
southerly wind were the conditions under
which they pitched their camp, at an alti-
tude Of $500 feet above sea level Their
dinner consisted OF pony ration boiled
with pemmcan, beef tea, biscuit. then a
small plum pudding. which, for lack of
cooking utensils and to spare fuel they
were forced to boil in the cocoa which they
topped up with.
Sir William Russell, the great war corre-
spondent, tells a story of the difficulties
OF Christmas dinner during the awful
winter OF 1854, when the British troops.
half starved and in rags, lay in the snow
outside Sebastopol.
On Christmas eve 1t was discovered that
all the flour had gone bad There was
nothing left to make pudding Of Young
Russell volunteered to get some, and
started out TO do so. He had to ride fifty
miles to reach a place where he could
purchase flour, and he also succeeded in
getting some raisins and a few skinny
chickens. After struggling through deep
snow, he reached camp again at midday
on December %.

that 1t will not have to be sacrificed In
