be. Cleveland's pnnut liidluVreiite

deinned by the press of this nation that
Is difficult to conceive of hla carrying

War with nation so cUwely silled In
many respects as Is Ureal Britain tolhls

power aud great resources, la not a mat
ter to be treated lightly ;yct the systems
which were applied to India aud Egypt
must uever be allowed a foothold on

The West Wii8 I pleased o state,
for the benefit of the Iiulijifniknt and
others Interested, that the jiple of
this city, after careful consideration of
the subject, decided that It would hi-
an unwise step, harmful to the city and
working a hardship upon the r st of

which would make the amendment
operative.
It la requires a desperate struggle on
the part of Americana to realize the
Incredible bravery of the Cuban rev
lutionists taking Spain's reports of the
situation in that Island as correct.
What wonderful fighters those half
breeds and negroes must I', when It
requires 40,000 of Spain's picked troops
to' subdue 9,000 111 fed, p-orly armed

reports from Spain continue to speak
of the trouble as "a riot of negroes."
The New York grand jury evidently

of sterilized milk for the poor, and the
man who was to smart to run again!
Strong for Mayor, last year. At anv
rate, be has been Indicted for Improper
acts while holding the office of Park
commissioner. Mr. Straus Is a merit nt
of the big business firm known as R
H. Macy & Co.; also a personal friend
of Mr. Cleveland.
Shall this country maintain Its pres
ent toundarks, or shall it reach oiil
and include everytldng that will be
necessary to the greatest commercial
nation the world lias evr seen? Upon
the decision will dcjiend whether we
remaii- merely a great nation or
become the greatest.
If the claim of England that the
United States bus nothing to do with
her encroachments upon the territory
of Venezuela be admitted, all the
South and Central American govern

business.
Senator Palmer lost no time in con
demning the calling of that demoemt'e
silver convention In Illinois. He
dosen't want the party to commit
Itself In an "off yeur."
Secretary GreKlimn hah not yet atxilo
gized for having, in the absence of Mr.
Cleveland, demanded that apology
from Spain, hut nobody Is offering
odds that he will not. .
Hon. D. B. Hill's endorsement of the
suggestion that a southern ' man be
nominated next year by the democrals
was merely a grand play for Senator
Gorman's especial benefit.

From the above you will notice there has been i
slight decline in the prices of goods since 1885,
you can buy as much now lor $1, as you could then
for $2, when the credit system was in vogue.
