No one doubts but, when the Court of Inquiry has completed its] work, that President McKialey will draft a plan of action that will abundantly satisfy the whole people. One of the most unfortunate phases of the relation of this govern- ment to the Cuban crisis has been the extreme position assumed by the Cuban party in Congress and the sen- sational statements of certain sensa- tional newspapers. While the sym- pathies of the whole American people have gone out to the Cubans in their struggle for independence, it does not follow and is not a fact that the people as a whole have desired a war with Spain in or- der to free the Cubans. A totally different situation prevails today from what prevailed years ago when it was the custom to recognize insur- gents as soon as they demonstrated their fighting abilities. During the formative period of governments in the New World, the right of the par- ent European nations to authority on the American continent rested almost entirely on might, or ability, to re- tain their possessions here.

There is quite a contrast between the action of a silver currency country proposing to sell gold-bearing bonds and that of a country which bonds with the understanding that they would be paid in gold and then suggests paying them in silver. issued Presmewr® McKixiey’s sugges. tions made in his recent New York speech that the duty of the party intrusted with the management of national affairs is to \ake up the cur- rency problem and do all that can be done toward its solution, are likely to be followed, it seems, by the Re- publicans in Congress, Latest re- ports from Washington indicate that a bill will probably be reported to the House, based recommendation, by which the green- backs redeemed with a will retained in the Treasury, or provision made by whith greenbackseshs utdized by national banks as a part of their reserve, thus taking them| circulation, upon the President's out of the field of active Another feature of the prospective bill will, it is understood, reduce the taxation on national bank issues and permit banks to increase their cur- rency up to the par e of the bonds deposited to secure their circu- lation, thus increasing the currency in this manner, while reducing the danger of further use of the gold- bearing. notes for the withdrawal of gold from the Treasury. | sembly proceedings which other papers pub-| MARDI GRAS AT NEW ORLEANS, fifty years ago or more. Those members of Congress, both in the Upper and Lower Houses who have criticised the administration of McKinley for its position or policy as to Cuba have been making grand stand plays and have been catering toa false popular sentiment, for the thinking people have all been willing to trust the patriotism of the admin~ istration. No men in the whole country are in a better position to understand the real feeling of the people, toknow whatjs really best for the country, and to appreciate fully the importance of any given policy from an international standpoint than the officials at Washington, The quality of patriotism is one that has never yet been wanting in any administration or any President that this country has had. Certain Presidents may have taken positions on internal questions that were at the time and sinve have been the subject of much just criticism ; but when the honor of the American peoyle has been at stake, none have [been found wanting. Many homes in this country today know what war means. ‘The in- mates of these homes can fully ap- preciate the reluctance of the Presi- dent to rush into a foreign war. American citizens are today not like so many cattle to be sacrificed to the rashness of ambitious politicians. No people on the face of the earth are braver than the Awerican people, or more ready to offer themselves upon the altar of national honor. But no President or no administration can afford to as- sume the responsibility of war with- out usiog all honorable means to set- tle the question at issue by peaceable means, This has been the policy of Presi- dent McKinley. If, however, war must come, if the honor ot the Old Flag demands it, no President will conduct it more heartily or more patriotically than will McKinley. The American people will find in him a leader that will arouse the pride and enthusiasm of every American citi zen, EQUAL RIGHTS TO ALL, Lexington Leader If there is anything more the free silver Louisville Dispatch wants from the Kentucky Legi-lature it ought to. speak out now or ever after hold its peace.

Frances Elizebeth Willard, author and reformer, was born in Church- ville, near Rochester, N. Y., Sept. 28, 1839. She was of the ninth gen- eration in descent from Maj. Simon Willard, founder and forty years a leading resident of Concord, Mass, He was a Puritan, from Kent, io England. Her great-grandfatner, Rev. Elijah Wilard, fought in the revolution and was for forty years pastor at Dublin, N. H. Her father, Josiah F. Willard, and mother, Mary Thompson Hill, were born in Caledo- nia county, Vermont, in 1805, and both removing to Western New York in 1816, were married in 1831, They went to Oberlin, O., to attend college in 1840, remaining there until 1846, when they became pioneers in Wis- consin, ten years in advance of rail- roads, Miss Willard’s early life was pass- ed almost wholly out of doors, her fondness for riding, fishing, reading, sketching and climbing trees being unusual, and her wise mother per- mitting the pursuits which laid the foundation for lifelong health of body and mind. At fourteen she first at- tended school. In 1857 she went to Milwaukee College for Womeu, founded by Catharine Beecher, and in 1859 was graduated from what is now the Wo- man’s College of Northwestera Uni- versity at Evanston, Ill, She began teaching in 1861, and rose to be dean of the college and professor of esthetics in her alma mater. This was in 1870-74. Meanwhile she was preceptress at Lima, N. Y. (Gene- see Wesleyan Seminary), ia 1857-67, and traveled and studied languages and history of the fine arts in Europe and the East from 1868 to 1870, go- ing north to Helsingfors, east to Da- mascus and south to Numbi: She wrote, in 1883, ‘Nineteen Beautiful Years,” a story of her only sister's life. It has been published in England, translated into French and Danish, and a new edition, with prefaca by John G. Whittier, was brought out by the Woman's Tem- perance Publication Association in Chicago. . ‘How to Win,” prefaced by Rose Elizabeth Cleveland, was published in 1896; ‘Woman in the Palpit,’’ introduction by Rev. Dr. Talmage and Revs. Joseph Parker and Joseph Cook; ‘Woman and Temperance,’ with an introduction by Miss Mary A. Lathbury; ‘Hints and Helps in Temperance Work’’ are among her books and in 1887 was published ‘Glimpses of Fifty Years,’’ her autobiography, written by request of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union, of which she has been president since 187 Miss Willard early became the Jeader of the new movement of the modern temperance reform when it had reeched the period of second thought—tkat is, of organization and systematic work, and for twenty years she has traveled almost con- stantly in its interest (having resigned her position in the Northwestern University soon after the crusade) and visited every town in the United States having 10,000 inhabitants and most of those having 5,000. In 1883 she worked and spoke in every state and territory of the republic. Miss Willard spoke once a day on an av- erage for the first ten years of her perance work and attended some- times twenty state conventions year- ly. She has made eight trips to the Southern states, brought together the women of the two sections under the white flag of the W. C. T. U., with the now famous motto ‘‘For God and Home and Native Land.’’ BENTON'S GAS PLANT, The City to Be Lighted With Acetylene Gas, A New Venture In Street Lightihg —Satisfactory Results, Benton, Marshal county, cémes tothe front with a novelty in the shope of street illumination. She will in all probubility be the first town in the state to be lighted with acetylene gas. Mr. J, C. Hicks has been experimenting on a small scale with it for some time with gratifying success. He has putin a regular plant for manufacturing the gas, and the work of laying the pipes bas been in progress for several days. The plant was near enough completion to give it trial Saturday night, with sat- isfactory results, This new gas is becoming very popular, It is said to make a light brighter than electricity. The steamer George Cowling has the acetylene gas for illumination, Golconda, and Brooklyn, Ill, are lighted by it.

It would worry you to see it, so she would put hersel stretch to conceal it, She never would be selfish enough to rest if the baby were fretty, or if our good brother-in law were out and you seemed to want some one to chat with you.” That is true, I must admit.” “Yes,” said the Married Sister's Spouse, “we could not make her take a night key and come and go like a lodger, and be as free as she ought to be. But if she lives by herself she will unconsciously arrange her condi tions to suit her taste and require- ments. The very fact that she has no one to consult will arouse impulses for self-preservation that would never crop out in another person’s house, even In 0} ‘24 both you horrid men seem nst me!” cried the Married assistant secretaries and physical di- rectors. Of the buildings in the state, the report referred to the Louisville as- sociation buildiag and its commodi- ous gymnasium as one of the largest and best in the country, thoroughly modern and convenient in all its ar- rangements. Also, the Owensboro building was declared completed, at a cost of $25,000, and it is to be opened next week. Special financial canvasses in cities of the state were aided by the state committee. A careful work in the colleges was ac- complished during the year. The work at five railroad points has been faithfully and vigorously maiutaioed.
