has made no attempt to appeal to the 1 pen to her if she ran up against this
supreme court, or to take advantage , country, with its 70.000.000 people
of any of those delays now consul-! and unlimited resources. There arc
cred a part of a criminal trial. "I several countries that might give us

tuined and sympathized vith as he is
by a tender and affectionate wife,
that life would be sweet and he
would make a struggle for his liberty.
His case, liko hundreds before it,
shows the depths of devotion to
which a woman's heart ma' reach.
Humanity is prone to speak lightly,
in these degenerate days, of wifely
devotion, but it is because speakers
are heedless of the noble examples
which occur every day. Now. in
Melson's case, his wife wrote him a
letter the other day that must have
affected him powerfully, for one can
hardly peruse the tender solicitation,
the pathetic longing, the despairing
anguish of the heart-broken wife,
penned on a tear-blotted page or
two to the man who won her girlish
affections, on whom she leaned, and
whom she loved, honored and trust
ed, without being moved to tears.
She was at the time, and probably is
yet, in Del Norte countv
California,
but in his last hours she pours out '
her love to him. and in a burst of
affection, says she would so love to
come and see him. but she wasbus-1
cooking for a camp of twent-five
men, and couldn't spare the time.
She is a thrifty little housewife
and will get along probably as well

The California senators are
posed to light the annexation of;
Hawaii. Their nrincinal objection.
and it is an objection, is to the mixed
population. President McKinlev !

meets this and overcomes it. Ila-

waii will be annexed to the United
States, because it is next to impossi i
ble for it to maintain its independ-;
ence, and this country will never , '
submit to any other government et- j
ting control of it.
There are some people who look at
a gift horse's teeth. They did it
concerning the northwest territory,
our own fair Oregon, and they poked
all manner of fun at Seward for m-rr.
ing the purchase of Alaska. Yet '
both were, after all. pretty good in. !
vestments. Senator Perkins says ;
Hawaii isn't much good anyhow, and!
for his part lie would rather pur-!
chase British Columbia. He seems '
to think that all the countries of the:
earth are on the bargain counter, and '
that if the lnited States doesn't see j
what it wants, all it has to do is to ;
asu for it. Just now, on the eve of
her gracious majesty's jubilee, we
imagine the pi ice might be a trifle
high, but the senator might price it

it would be better to wait for the '

will probably be some time, as En.

Une of the amusing things about ;
the Cuban question is the cheerful- '

leading Spaniards view the possibility
of war between Spain and the Tinted

They do not seem to real
ize the open faced absurdity ot their
threats when viewed in the light of,
; Spain's success in Cuba. If the (
j mother country cannot conquer a

the nations of the earth coul.l not do ,
it. The United States raises every-'
thing necessary to sustain the lives j
of all of its people, and can dety the
world. '
At last a spark of humauity has :
tlashed in the darkness of Spanish '
cruelty in Cuba. The Spanish sol-1
diers of the Guiness garrison have ;
petitioned General "Yeyler for per-,
mission to give half their dailv rations i
to stat ving Cuban women and clnl-
dren. It is only a little spark, but it
shines like a star of the first magni- i
tude. unrivaled and solitary in the
universal darkness. Had such Span- j
ish soldiers had to deal with the Cu- j
bans. the' would have conquered '
long ago, if. indeed, there had been !
anyone to conquer. 1
