TIDE TURNS TOWARD THESEA Evidence That the Summer Season {is at Hand. Daily Increasing Number of Bathers at Atlantic City — Sunday Amuse- ments a Public Question. Correspondence of The Brening Star. ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., June 19, 1897. ‘The warm weather which has prevailed recently throughout the entire east has had the effect of starting a tide of tmmigra- tion to this city that shows no sign of diminishing. On the contrary the influx of visitors daily becomes larger, and the hotel proprietors have hegun to realize that the summer season fs actually at hand. Of course there fs still room for more. The hotels are not overcrowded as yet, but there is an air of bustle and activity per- ceptible about all of the hotels that gives & bint of the prosperity which reigns with- in and of the rushing times that will soon be here. The landlord smiles in anticipa- tion of what is to come. while the chiet clerk's pleasant manner becomes even more pleasant. In a few days the hotel corri- dors will re-echo with the tramp of many guests and the exchanges be filled with their chat and laughter. Then is Atlantic City to be seen at its best. Ancther sign of approaching summer is the dafly increasing numbers of bathers to de seen disporting themselves in the surf. Perheps it would be exaggeration to say that the beach is black with bathers, but there are certainly a great many of them, and they seem to enjoy the sport. The water 1s quite warm. The city life guards will go on duty July 1, and by that time there will be plenty of bathers for them to look after. Sunday Amusements. An ordinance was recently passed by council, designed to effectually close the beach front amusement places Sunday. The matter has been agitated for years, but there has been so much opposition that all efforts in this direction have proven futile until the present time. There is a wide diversity of opinion as to the wisdom of the move, some people thinking that it will have the effect of keeping Sunday ex- eursionists away, while others claim that a better class of people will be induced to patronize the resort. The amusement peo- ple, of course ,are fighting the ordinance tooth and nail, and will endeavor to pre- vent Sts enforcement. If they have to close they will try to make the new law obnoxi ous by closing up all business of every kind on Sunday. The influential residents, how- ever, are unanimously in favor of a better observance of Sunday, and St is probable that the amusement men will have to suc- cumb to the inevitable. A new sloop yacht has been added to the inlet fleet. Her name fs the J. Willard Morgan, and her captain, H. Foster, claims that she can beat anything of her clas» afloat. Captain Sam Gale of the yacht John E. Mehrer, which has heen the ac- knowledged champion of the fleet for years, disputes Captain Foster's assertion, and a pretty race between the two was promised. The stake of £4) a side was posted and July 12 was set as the date of the race, but the two captains were unable to agree on the course to be sailed, and the race is thought to be “off” for the present. There is no doubt, however, that a test of speed will take place some time. In the mean- ¢ both aptains claim that theirs 1s better boat. A Convention Hall.

The New York Independent presents this week a symposium ‘on Queen Victoria's reign and its most striking characteristics. The variety of estimates gathered together is striking and instructive. Gladstone says that in his opinion the grand characteristics of Queen Victoria’s reign as to its public life has been emanci- pation. Lord Dufferin regards the develop- ment of science in its application to objects of practical utility as the chief gain. Justin McCarthy says: “To my mind the one most impressive characteristic of her majesty’ reign is the fact that she ts, strictly speak- ing, the first really constitutional sovereign who ever ruled over this empire. If that does not make an epoch I know of nothing that possibly could.” The Duke of Westminster thinks that Iccomotion and the advance of electricity, including the electric telegraph, are the characteristic achievements of the half centur: Mr. George N. Curzon’s view is that the security which Victoria’s reign has given to the monarchy in Great Britain in t face of an opposite movement in conti- nental countries is the great thing. Lecky, the historian, sums up the salient facts of the reign as: “The simultaneous growth of democratic politics, theological heterodoxy, scientific discovery and im- perial expansi Thomas A. Edison agrees with Lord Duf- ferin that the advancement of science and its application to industry are the matters of first importance. So, too, Patt! looks on and mechanism as the leading achievements of the age. Henry M. Stan- ley s “The most striking characteristic of her m: a difficult thing to decid a marvelous one y's reign i < the reign ts for developments of all kinds, but as no industry, invention or progress could be rewarded or flourish without m I am inclined to think that we must give the palm to the discoveries of gold fields various parts of the world.” Sir Henry Irving takes a broad view of the period. He says: “The reign of our be- loved queen is remarkable for the pro- digious expansion of the national resources and for the conquests of science in many fields. These distinguish the past sixty rs above any other period of our _his- in ye But I am glad to think that the reign is equally distinguished by the growth of tolerance, the disappearance of many prejudi and the marked abate- ment of others, not only in religion, but in the attitude of society toward artistic call- ings—notably my own. In short, the arts have grown ‘respectable,’ happily, without losing any of their native vigor.” In the same line Dean Farrar expresses his estimate: “Progress and prosperity, the expansion of men’s thoughts by science and literature, and the universal deepen- ing of the sense of sympathy and brother- hood are among the most characteristic blessings of this epoch.’ Miss Frances E. Willard takes a rather sentimental view of the Victorian era. She Says: “Mine will be a typical American reply he queen is universally ‘revered, beloved,’ in our country, because, in the face of many hindrances, she has set up and illustrated in her own life the highest standard of personal purity, thereby mak- ing every home the wide world over more sheltered and secure.” President Eliot of Harvard seems to re- gard Victoria’s reign as simply a fortunate coincidence. She happened to lve while mankind was accomplishing great things for itseif. He says: “The great character- istics of the period during which Queen Victoria has reigned seem to me to be things with which no ruler or governmeat has had much to do. They relate chiefly to the discovery and development of new n-ethdds In science and new means of pro- moting the well-being and happiness of mankind.” Ellen Terry's answer is a good one, true and philosophical. The great thing of the Victorian reign, she says, is “the develop- ment of individuality, especially among women.” Alfred Austin says: “The growth of a keener and more conscious sense of moral responsibility, due in great measure to the example set by the sovereign to her subjects during the sixty years of her reign, but likewise, in no small degree, to the admission to the political suffrage of the wage-earning members of the commun- ity.” Probably the most remarkable, and, to Britons, the most humiliating verdict comes from Mr. D. Naoroji, a leader of the Indian national congress, who says: “The most striking characteristic of her majesty’s reign to me, as an Indian, is the enormous addition to the wealth of this country by the continuation of the grinding, bleeding system of rule, in continuously increasing intensity, adopted by her majesty’s serv- ants, the authorities, in both countries, in spite of every desire of her majesty, of the British people and parliament, to rule In- dia with justice and honor, and to treat the Indians as British citizens in every respect, instead of as British slaves, as they are. The most striking consequences of the utter violation of her majesty’s most sacred pledges, and of acts and reso- lutions of parliament, are the extreme im- poverishment of the people of British In- dia, and the infliction upon them of all the scourges of this world-—war, pestilence and famine. May I hope to look forward to a beneficial change on the present great occasion of her majesty’s reign?” “Want” ads. in The Star pay because they bring answers. WASHINGTON, D. C.

The proceedings of the regular monthly meeting of Columbia Typographical Union, which was held yesterday, were rendered especially interesting by reason of the fact that candidates for the various chective officers of the union were nominated, to be voted for at the annual election, wh'ch takes place the last Wednesday in July: Those placed in the field were: For presi- dent, J. D. Kehoe, ©. M. Robinson, S. J. Triplett, C. E. Miller, James E. Erwin and J. M. Kreitec; for vice president, J. B. Rogers, Thomas W. Haworth, Frank Hall and A. J. Arnold; for secretary, William M. Garrett; for treasurer, J. J. Higgins, for sergeant-at-arms, Joseph Halford; for doorkeeper, Jacob Fechtig and M. C. Stoops. For delegates to the Central Labor Union, five to be chosen, there were named: E. M. Blake, W. A. Shaw, J. Ma L. A. —— Sudworth, William Thompson, J. W. Cross, EB. B. Kelly and Jarvis B. Mouiden, and for trustee, J. J. Sullivan, J. B. Dickman and W. Otis. It was determined to reduce the salary of the president, after the expiration of the term of the incumbent, to $75; to discon- tinue the payment of the pension of $1 per week to the inmates of the Childs-Drexel Home at Colorado Springs; to bond only the treasurer and secretary, and to place the management of the renting of the rooms in the building in the hands of the officers of the union. A proposition to consolidate the offices of secretary and treasurer was defeated. The union declined to take part in a proposed Cubun demonstration. July 4. The subject of machines in book and job offices was taken up, but no conclusion was reached, and it was agreed that the subject should be discussed at the next meeting of the union. ee WENT DOWN TO SOBER UP. A Seventy-Four-Year-Old Veteran Sent to the Workhouse. It is not often that an individual reaches such a condition that he considers life in the workhouse as a prisoner more de- sirable than liberty and the pure air of freedom. Such, however, was the plight of John Smith, and in the Police Court to- day his desires were amply met. “Smith is seventy-four years of age, and Is an old soldier,” explained Capt. Cutler, superintendent of the night lodging house, after John had been arraigned as a va- grant. “Liquor is the curse of his exist- ence. He wants to stop drinking, but finds it Impossible to do so. The best thing for him is to put him where he can't get whisky.” “For how long do you want to go down?” asked the court of Smith. “The limit,” was the unhesitating reply. “I think six months will do you good,” Judge Kimball went on to say. “Let that be the sentence.” ee Ee Proposed the Installment Plan. William Roy, colored, was adjudged guilty today in the Police Court of disor- derly conduct. “Please, Jedge, yer honor,” pleaded Wil- lam, “take my pus’nul bonds ter pay ther fine—what is it?” “Five dollars,” answered “When will you pay it?” “In about three weeks I kin pay part of it.” “Oh, no,” said Judge Kimball. not conducting an here.

IN FAMOUS SURROUNDINGS Correspondence of The Evening Star. EDINBURGH, Scotland, June 3, 1897. This has been a very festive week in the gray metropolis of the north. Once a year, in the merry month of May, “Auld Reckie” forgets that she is very old and has ecen more dreadful sights In her time than almost any other town, and becomes as bright and gray as a younger and less nicked city would have s9me right to be. In May, when the great, black castle rock and the gray turrets of the fortress are half hidden amid the soft spring green of its hanging gardens, when Princes street is gay with the stars and stripes and gorgeous tartans are lavishly displayed in every shop to catch the early Ameri- can tourist and his hard-earned dollars, the lord high commissioner for Scotland, who represents the queen, ¢omes with much pomp and ceremony to open the general synod of the Church of Scotland. This is the merriest time of all the glad new year. for Edinburgh and the gaiety, which might if economized be made to last the whole year—for the Scotch are a grave and sober people and don’t expect a great deal in the way of galety—is crowded into one week, It is strange that this display should be in connection with a church, and that church the -Presbyterian Church of Scot- land, but so it is. During the synod week Princes street swarms with “ministers” of all sorts and conditions. The ‘Free Kirk,” the “Estab- lished Church" and the “Unjted Presby- terians,"" which are only a few of the dl- visions into which the Presbyterians have split themselves up, are all eut in force. It is their great annual holiday, and the hotels, caves and shops are arowded with them ‘and their wives. Edinburgh is ex- pected to devote herself exclusivelyato thelr amusement and entertainment, and she has always proved to be an excellent hos- tess. Chief among the entertainers is the lord high commissioner, who is ehosen from among the Scottish peers. This year, for the fifth time, the Marquis of Tweedale was selected. First in order comes the levee, held at the ancient Palace of Holyroed, at which any “gentleman” may be ‘presented,’ pro- vided only he is willing to wear court dress (a suit of black velvet, with kmee breeches, point lace. frills, buckled shoes, a sword and cocked hat), or, failing this, full even- ing dress. As the levee is: held at 11 o'clock in the morning this rather tries men’s souls and painfully suggests that they've been out all night and forgotten to change their clothes. At the levee the keys of the good city of Edinburgh are formally presented to her majesty’s representative by the lord provost with a more or less flowery litile speech, and at once returned to him with another speech and the com- forting assurance that the commissioner considers them and the citizens safe in the proyost’s keeping for another year. A Picturesque Parnde. When all these formalities are over, a procession 1s. formed and winds up past Calton Hill, through Princes street, bril- Nant with flags. across the Mound and up through the “old" town to St. Giles’ Cathe- dral. This procession is a gorgeous affair, quite as splendid in its way and far more aristocratic than a London lord mayor's show. First comes the famous Highland Regi- ment, tt yal Scots, in gay tartan kilts, red ceats'and great ostrich feather “‘bon- nets,”.with its band of pipers playing old Scotch airs. After them follow the state coaches, with postillions and outriders in blue-and-silver liveries and powdered hair. In these are seated the commissioner and the marchioness, with the maids of honor and the aids-de-camp. Next come the lord provost and the city fathérs, gorgeous to behold, in crimson and ermine, the mace bearer walking ahead, thé lion king-at- arms, the college of heralds, with the pur- vuisants and state trumpeters, dressed for all the world like’ the kings on a pack of cards, and riding in beautiful gilded coaches that would have put Cinderella's carriage to shame: the faculty of advocates, in gowns and wigs, with two lonely little pages in livery and powder, and the fine dragoon regiment, the Royal Inniskillings, which brings up the rear and draws up on guard outside the church doors, while the Royal Scots line both sides of the High street, from St. Giles to the Assembly Hail. In this beautiful old church of St. Giles, hung with tattered banners from many a hard-won battlefield, John Knox preached his last sermon, and near by an inscrip- tion in the pavement, “J, K., 1572," marks his grave. Here Jenny Geddes hurled her stool at the dean’s head as he read the hateful liturgy for the last time, and here it was that James VI took leave of his people on his accession to the throne of England, ‘‘weeping plentifully and promis- ing to visit them often, and to remember them when he should be ‘awa in foreign pairts.'"" (Edinburgh is now only seven and a half hours from London). Reception at Holyrood. We reached the gates of Holyrood about 10 o'clock, and as there! were many car- riages ahead of ours we had to wait some little time. The moon was shining over Salisbury crags and lighting up the beau- the palace. Behind and far above it the great, dark, lion-shaped mountain seemed to keep guard, while Holyrood itself looked as if its fairy godmother (if a palace can be supposed to have so. useful a relative) had touched ‘It- with -her wand, so changed was it from its usual rather «gloomy ap- pearance. Instead~of bare stone corridors and the dust of ages, we sawseverywhere crimson carpets, tall palms, ferns and flowers, fountains and thousanids of softly tinted and shaded lights.. We were re- celved by some truly magnificent flunkeys and passed on to the ushers, who an- nounced us in loud and dlear tones as we went forward to make our curtseys to her majesty’s- representatives in :the throne room. These private apartmemts of the queen are not open to visitors, amd this is the only occasion when one can see them. The old- er wing of the palace, which contains Queen Mary's rooms and where Rizzio’s “blind” stains the floor, ig always open. The throne rcom and the others of this suite are quite unaltered since the days when Prince Charley helfl his brief court here, and there are some: fine portraits, as well as a great deal of very beautiful Gobe- Un tapestry...In this moré modern wing of the palace is also the great banqueting hall and portrait-gallesy, built: by Charles II. This was used be Be a supper room, and ‘very-prettity: tt } ca with its flowers and ferns and palms and thousands of wax candles in tall silver candelabra, against the dark oak-paneled walls. and grim old portraits. The throne, with its great crimson silk canopy and gold-embroidered “V. R.,” is just Hke an old-fashioned ; four-foot can- opied bedstead. There was, in this rocm and we saw some ‘ul Scotch reels, danced by officers the Highland Regiment in their full. kilts, and isles in court dress, to th music of the Pipes. The steps are very intricate and difficult, and there are said to be as many as one hundred and twenty-nine different ones. A reel has no end, and may go on as long as the pipers care to play, and this went on and on till it seemed as if the dancers must give up, but they kept cn bravely till the music stopped, giving the short, sharp cry, which is exactly the same that the Indians give when dancing a war dance. At 11 o'clock the band played “God Save the Queen,” which freely translated al- ways mears it is time to go home, and we went, leaving the old palace to the meonlight and its ghosts. Another garden party of a very different Kind was given the next day. This was one for the poor children of the Cannon- gate, and one could hardly help contrast- ing the gay company assembled at the first with these children, and feeling grateful to Lady Tweedale for bringing, for one day even, so much pleesure into the lives of these little ones. Happy Children. The children are selected solely for their Poverty by the minister of the Cannongate parish. The event made a great stir in the wynds and closes of the ancient burgh, and when it became known the house of the reverend gentleman was besieged by boys and girls, anxious to receive a ticket of invitation. They had often seen the commissioner’s carriage pass their doors, and now they felt that they themselves Were of some importance, since they were to be invited to the palace. At 2 o'clock they assembled at the cross, and marched, four deep, to the music of the Boys’ Indus- trial School Band, to the gates of Holy- rood, where they were received by the high commissioner, Lady Tweedale and their suite. Many of them were barefoot, but all looked wonderfully clean and neat and the picture of happiness. As they passed their host and hostess they gave a tremendous cheer and wayed their hats and handkerchiefs. When they had all found seats on the grass four pipers danced a sword dance and a sailor a hornpipe for their amusement. Then they played games and ran races for prizes, and finally they were marched to the marquie for refresh- ments, where they were waited on by the liveried and powdered footmen, who were @ great source of interest and amusement to them. Before they went home each of the children was given a toy of sume sort and a-bag of cakes, oranges and candy. Weedless to say, they all left delighted with their party, which was, without any doubt, a great success. This ended the week's festivities at Holyrood, and when 1 passed, a day or two later, the curtains were down, the flags gone, and all signs of the gaiety of the week before had van- ished.

At the Vermont Avenue Christian Chureh, last evening, the pastor, Rev. D. Power, preached an able discourse appropriate to the celebration of Queen Victoria’s jubilee. In the course of his sermon he said: “To speak of the progress of her empire in these three score years would be to write largely the history of civilization. It is a marvelous story, the growth of the Eng- lish-speaking people, the increase in popu- lation, in territory, in commerce, in manu- facture, in wealth, in steam power and electricity, in education, in civil and re- Mgious freedom, in the elevation of the working classes, the protection of children and the advancement of woman in the arts and sciences, in faith and spirituality and practical religion, in the gift of Christiani- ty to the unawakened millions, in every- thing that makes a great nation. The ratio of pauperism has fallen from 1 in 16 to 1 in 36, and in convicts from 1 in 360 to 1 in 7,000. Ireland alone has stood still in all this mighty ongoing. The people have come to their inheritance, the people, rich and poor, old and young, male and female, no- ble. and plebeian, Anglician and dissenter, Catholic and Jew. It is a great era, this Victorian age from 1837 to 1897. We all share in Its blessing. We all send greetings to her majesty. We all, whether we care for crowns and royal titles or not, can love and honor a gracious Christian woman. We all may sing with the voice which belts the globe, ‘God Save the Queen!” Yesterday marked the twenty-first anni- versary of Rev. Albert R. Stuart's connec- tion with Christ Episcopal Church, George- town. No 5) 1" program was ‘prepared for the ora: ‘and thé sermon touched Sermens upon the anniversary only in an indirect way. Dr. L. G. Butler of the Lutheran Place Memorial Church devoted his service yes- terday morning to a talk upon the doings of the annual convention of the general synod of the Lutheran Church, held at Mansfield, Ohio, from June 9 to 18. The feast of Corpus Christi was celebrat- ed at St. Aloysius’ Church yesterday. Sol- emn high mass was offered by Rev. Father O'Connell, S.J., assisted by Rev. Father Colgan, 8.J., an@ Mr. Coyle, 8.J., as deacon and subdeacon of the mas The Rev. "r: Goucher, president of the Woman's Coliege of Baltimore, preached at the Metropolitan M. E. Church yesterday morning. President McKinley attended the service, and there was a large congregation present. Flag day services were held at Calvary Baptist Church yesterday morning. In ad- dition to exercises by the children of the church and the usual patriotic songs and recitations, addresses were delivered by W. S. Shallenberger, second assistant post- master general, and Webster Davis, assist- ant secretary of the Interior. Flag day was celebrated at Ryland M. E. Chapel by the preaching of a special ser- mon by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Hartsock, last evening. The pulpit of the Eastern Presbyterian Church was occupied yesterday morning by Rev. Samuel F. Moore, a returned mis- sionary from Seoul Corea, who preached an interesting sermon, largely devoted to a description of the progress of missionary work in that country. The colored students of the city were ad- dressed last evening at Asbury A. M. E. Church by the pastor, the Rev. I. L. Thom- as, on the “Benefits and Objects of Educa- tion.”” Rev. Dr. Byron Sunderland occupied the pulpit at the First Presbyterian Church yesterday. In the evening he sermon upon the “Cuban Crisis.” tor took for his text Isaiah xx:6—“And the inhabitants of this isle shall say in that day, behold, such is our expectation, whith- er we flee for help to be delivered from the King of Assyria; and how shall we es- cape?” “Talk to us of prudence and discretion,” he said. “Oh, have we not seen this bloody drama over and over, and wept over the wees of the doomed people succumbing to the fate of slaves, Poland, Hungary, Greece and Armenia. And freedofh shrieked as Kcselusko fell. When will this country put forth its arm and strength and say to this European arrogance of despotism: ‘You shall no longer on this hemisphere repeat the atrocities that have blackened the story of the past.” Rouse, then, Americans, and let your voice be heard once more in the land ull the pillars of yonder Capitol shall tremble with the echoes of indignation which the apathy of our government in- spires.” Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, of the Central Church of Chicago, formerly Pro- fessor David Swing’s church, ts the guest of Secretary Gage, and yesterday morning occupied the pulpit of the Church of the Covenant. Rey. William C. Alexander, pastor of the West Street Presbyterian Church, preached to a large congregation yesterday morn- ing, and selected as the subject of his ser- mon the sixtieth anniversary of the coro- nation of Victoria as queen of England. cali BEAUTIFYING ROCK CREEK PARK. Mr. Shoemaker's Plan for State Build- ings Commended. To the Editor of The Evening Star: I have read with much pleasure and in- terest the several articles in your paper over the name of Mr. Louis P. Shoemaker upon the matter of improvement of our great park on the historic Rock creek. Now it does seem to me that these suggestions of Mr. Shoemaker are not only timely and appropriate, but that the public of this District and county might lend us their potent aid in the furtherance of this mat- ter, and through the press the people and Cengress should be forced to a patriotic sense of their duty in beautifying and making available this naturally romantic and picturesque section of the District. I think the suggestion of Mr. Shoemaker as regards the state buildings is most com- mendable, and recalls the efforts made by our citizens when asking for the Columbian fair to be held here, it being the desire then to make the buildings permanent, and having them remain as a public exhibit of the history, products and art of the several states of the Union. I doubt not that the states would be glad and proud of the op- pertunity to have a home at the seat of government wherein they could keep pei Manently on exhibit the products of their mines and manufacturtes. Certainly it would excite a laudable ambition among the trades and arts of individual e: lence, and a profitable medium of ac ing individual enterprise. It does seem strange that we should show so little inter- est in the beautifying of this our only great park as a people, and also that mem- bers of Congress should take so little inter- est in these things which speak of patriot- ism and love of country. I hope you will see your way clear to lead off in this mat- ter, and induce your brother editors to do likewise, as you have always been the brave champion of the people's interest in this District, and among the first to call for those improvements which are demand- ed by the citizens, and in the line of beau- tifying this the capital of the nation seems but natural that we should look to you now to lead in this most laudable and much de- sired improvement.

NUNEZ TALKS OF THE WAR Cuban General Says Nothing Less Than Freedom Will Be Accepted. nd Arms Now Reach Caba Separately. Gen. Emilio Nunez, the well-known Cu- ban leader, who now has his headquarters at Key West, has been north on a flying trip. In an interview in Philadelphia just before leaving for his Florida home, he said: There is no more filibustering. There has been none for two months. The de- cision was made long ago that filibustering should be abandoned. The arrests a trials and annoyances were too expensiv A filibustering expedition consists of arms and men. They are never sent together. The munitions we wish to furnish our friends on the island are sent on a mer- chant vessel consigned to them, which is something we have a perfect right to do. And any men who intend going to Cuby go without arms. We are thus entirely within the laws, and filibustering is at an end. Reference was made to the Cuban na- tional elections, which occur September and the general was asked: “How will the elections affect the man- of the war in Cuba and of the America? conducted just as it has been waged hitherto. Gen. Gomez, with- out doubt, will remain commander-in-chief. Whether or not the elections change the secretary of war, the policy in the cam paign will not alter, since it is con‘rolle With re- y this entirely by the general-in-chief. gard to the junta, I am free to sa Senor Paima will remain the de! authority in the United States. There is not 2 member of the junta who Is thoroughly satisfied with Senor Palma’s administration; and the citizen e Ten public who are under arms in Cuba have constantly manifested equal satisfaction with him as their representative. 1 wish to point out the circumstance that, no matter what change may occur in the per- sonnel of the Cuban government, from the presidency down, the pol with regard to the conduct of the military campaign cannot be affected. The president and the secretaries holding the several govern- ment portiolios are administrators merely. They distribute the fir the civil branches of the government aud di- rect the foreign policy through the repub- lic’s delegate in the United States, who in turn appoints the cther forsign 4 The military cam gn is like € mous campaign, which was ‘to on that line if it took all summer; the Cuban cam- paign is to go on its present lines if it takes all eternity.” General Nunez sald he desired to add that the now famous ultimatum of his compatriots, ‘‘Freedon. or death,” was not a plece of braggadocio; nor was it a de- mand for much in the hope of receiving a litle. Every man in the Cuban ranks, and every man in the Cuban government meant, when he declared for “freedom or death,” nothing more or less than exactly what these words signify. “It is, therefore,” continued the general, “altogether idle for half-hearted friends of Cuba to talk of the whole-hearted parti- sans accepting anything but entire sever- ance from Spain and absolute independence for Cuba. General W jer, from the outset, ¢ ‘erned the sincerity of utte which formed those three impre words, and from the outset he adapted hi measures and policy solely to combating that ultimatum. It was not his business to give Cuba freedom, and it was his ness to give them death. His policy of centration of pacificos and of them until the race is exterminated shows that he takes his enemies at their word, if the United Siates doesn’t. On ne but call to mind the numerous utterances of Weyler wit the past few months, with h in: nee that ‘the Cul Ss must be ex- terminated,’ to be assured that ain's captain general knows the ground he's treading on. Reform 1 aut my ar nothing more than a $3 squirt gun da vn a burning ho It is rather a lurid metaphor, but it is almost literally true, that the house of Spain's authority has Leeen afire ever since the flames of revolu- ton were kindled this last time. No hu- man y can put that fire out now; and the building must burn to the ground. Weyler, we reluctantly confess, is using the only means that would recommend it- self to a military fireman who is at scientific and murderous. Weyler is fight- ing this fire on the principle of starving out the flames; deprive a fire of material and it cannot burn. The question is whether Weyler will ever be able to starve a conflagration fed by the righteous wrath of 1,500,000 human beings, who now have all to gain and nothing to lose by continu- ing in rebellion. Thus, it is useless, and will ever be useless, for President McKin- ley to negotiate plans with Spain for a sys- tem of ‘Canadian autonomy’ in Cuba. Cuba won't have autonomy. Cuba will have liberty, and she is ready to wait and fight for Mbert Good Templars Have a Housewarming A very successful and well-atte meeting was held Saturday evening under the auspices of Perseverance Lodge, 1.
