Oty one objection can be’ raised to the action of the Greeks in the Cretan trouble. They have failed to render pronounceable the named of digenacs personie. —__— _ Tux caltivation of the Bamboo is receiving attention in Florida and gives promise of success. The wide- spread utility of this plant makes it a most desirable one to adopt in this country. The prospenty of this country depends, in a large measure, on thé ¢ontinued development of new fields.ot industry. Hap Spain been able to see the march of progress in this nineteenth centary end granted years ago to her colonies a large measure of autonomy, such as she promised to the Cubans at the close of the last war, her bank account would have been in a very the Cuban future. ‘ and pointed, bearing only on the one matter of supreme importance at this time, the tariff, It is a succinct statement of the condition of the treasury wrought by the ill-advised, crade and inefficient Wilson-Gorman tariff. Maving male up his miod that the revision of the tariff is) the subjects atte self, cannot open his mouth without ~{ calling attention to the failure of the Republicans to bring prosperity, is simply trying to show the people how »|small a soul he has and how big a fool he is.

Apparently gold knows its tiiends. When the Democracy was in power it hid itself away in old stockings, safety vavits, et cetra. But as soon es the return of Republi- cans to power was assured it began to come forth. — Kixe Witiam of Germany, wants to spend $65,000,000 on his navy in the next three or four years, and be probably will not be permitted by bis more prudent subjects to spend $65,- 000. He is lessening his chances for the expansion of his navy every day by his Cretan policy. Bismarck and a large following are industrious- ly educating the people to the folly of such a foreign policy and the Em-| peror will hear from them. Iris to be hoped the telegram sent out late yesterday afternoon to in the legislature had been reconciled to vote and work with the Hunterites is true.
