A FEW QUESTIONS
From Mugwump, Riley Cave,
, on Present Conditions.
To Tiii-: Eiirron:
Things look very curinuB in re
gard to the Spanish matter. Eith
er the press 1ms lied woefully, or
Spain has kept up endless annoy
ances; in point of fact, a continu
ous ghost dance has been kept up
along our coast line. Our flag has
been shot at; our schooners search
ed; Americans thrown into prison;
our haWtleship blown up and our
president defamed. And then we
are told we are not ready for war.
Where are the millions and millions
which have been squandered these
years for coast defenses, veane's and
giuis? Is it true that our battle
nhips are so llimsily constructed
that, coal and ammunition are
dumped together with but a thin
wooden partition between; that they
nro hut a sort of monkey chained
to an organ, for parade only?
And allow mo to ask if we should
not he ready at all times to defend
cur honor, integrity and commerce?
There hat been no lack of money
collected. Is it, is it true, I say,
that this nation must be branded a
coward on account of a few cranks
who want the gold standard-cranks
who are dissatisfied with the way
the Almighty made the earth, full
of both money metals, and with the
efforts of four thousand yeat'B in the
interests of humanity to improve
our coinage laws and laws of values
of tlto past, which have proven bo
ho efficacious? Are we to go back to
the nges when iron was money,
based upon "bullion" value? Are
wo to have gold as the only stand
ard gold cheap in Klondike and
dear in Portland gold that has no
standard in the mines hut yet dear
in the hands of bankers? Are we
to he cowards and poltroons in or
der that the workings of centuries
may bo reversed? R. Cave.
Miter's Note. It looks that way.

on the subject and made mention
of severn I who were instrumental in
aiding Washington in gaining our
liberty. What is specially of not
ice is the fact that Mr. Hughes
made complimentary mention of
the work of Thomas Paine, com

YOUNG 1NGLEY MUST NOW BE TRIED
A Supreme Court Decision Which will
be of Interest.
When young Ingley, of Raleigh,
was indicted for illegally voting in
a school election several months
since, his attorneys, Barret & Ad
ams, demurred to the indictment,
first, on the grounds that it was un-
constitutional for the law to require
property qualifications in school j
elections; secondly, that the crimi
nal law on illegal voting did not
apply to violation of school dis
trict election laws. The state,
through the school district, had re
tained Attorney Huston, and when
Judge McBride sustained the de
murrer, "with doubt," the school
board had the matter taken to the
Supreme Court. That bodv has
acted on the matter and reversed
the case, sending it back to the low
er court for trial.
It is now settled by our Supreme
Court, that to vote at a school meet
ing a man or woman must pay
taxes. The case at hand must be
tried on its merits.
