EXTERMINATION AS A POLICY.
To all appearance the Spanish pur
pose in Cuba has settled clown to
the extinction of the majority of the
inhabitants of the island, without re
gard to sex or ae. This measure,
says the Globe-Democrat, was set in
motion by Weyler, and its effects
are visible in all the provinces. The
mortality m Havana last week is
officially reported at 143, in a popu
lation of 200,000. In St. Louis for
the same week the mortality was 18S
in a population of over 000,0(30.
Havana's death rate is seven times
that of St. Louis, and Havana's con
dition is not so bad as that of Cuba
tit large. As soon as the reports of
our consuls in Cuba, whicli have
been called for by congress, are laid
before the people, the world will re
alize the extent and fatal character of
misery among -the Cubans. The
perishing of the population is largely
the result of the Weyler concentra
tion order, which will be found to
have been practically a sentence of
death pronounced against the wives,
children and helpless relatives of
the insurgents, and of the neutral
class, if there was any, engaged in
tilling the soil in the interior.
The Idea of destroying a whole
people by expelling them from their
homes and depriving them of the
means of support is not new, though
Spain is the only nation in Europe
that would attempt it in the present
age. Cromwell tried it to some- ex
tent in Ireland, but not until his
armies were complete masters of the
island. His edict banished the en
tire native population to Connaught,
the smallest and least fertile of the
four provinces.
Cromwell's plan was to turn over
the other provinces to English and
Scotch settlers. It failed, and was
doomed to failure from its nature.
Before many generations passed
Connaught had leavened the lump
anew. If Cromwell had put every
person with Irish blood to the sword,
the result might have been different;
but that monstrous crime would not
have been endured In England. The
children of Cromwell's settlers in
Ireland were Irish in feeling, and
partly in blood by intermarriage, and
their descendants are not now dis
tinguishable from the oldest native
type. Recent wars between civilizedna
tions have been brief. They were
fought to a speedy conclusion 'in the
field without savagery. The sacred
claims of the wounded and the sick
were undisputed. "Women, children
and the helpless were not disturbed
unless for their protection. They
were not allowed by an invading
army to starve. Home wae the rec
ognized place for them unless too
near a battleground. All these iiiles
of civilization are idiicarded by the
Spanuh In Cuba. The " wounded are
killed. Women and children arc
huddled in concentration camps, and
tbe mortality throughout the island
is, probably ten time .the ynorraal
'rate. s
When tbe United States asks bow
long this reign of terror is to last,
the only answer from Madrid thus
far has been Ibat Spain will not un
dertake to sot a dato in dealing with
Iter own revolted golimy. It is true
that this country tuiylil nvold n war
hj agreeing with Spain that what
goes on in Cuba is no affair of ours.
Rut unless this is the position ,lo be
taken, the Spanish policy of exterm
ination, which is contrary to leason
and history as well as humanity, will
be subject to our effective protest.
The effecting yesteylay of a tem
porary organization of wool men for
the state of Oregon is one of the
good results flowing from the pres
ent convention. An industry so im
portant as that of wool raising needs
some association which can be of
mutual benefit to its members. Wc
trust that as many as possible of the
Oregon wool-growers will be present
at the permanent organization today.
The Moro Leader, a new paper
published in Moro, Sherman county,
reached this office todav. The new
journal is a bright and intcicstfng
one, but just why Moro needs two
newspapers is a little had to under
stand. HE WAS WILLING.

There was an old man with a hig and
bulky satchel at his feet and a weed on
his hat leaning against the (Jriswold
.street front of the post otliee the other
day, says the Detroit Free Presswhen
a wafT who hud been haiifjinfjatound for
the right sort of a man' to appear ap
proached him and said:
"T see that the grim destroyer has in
vaded your hearthstone?"
"The which?" asked the old man."
"The grim destroyer the angel of
death. 1 take it your wife lias gone
hence."
. "Yes, gone hence."
"Allow me to extend my heartfelt
sympathies."
"Yes, you kin extend 'em."
"You must be lonely."
"Yes, purty lonely."
"I have lost the partner of my own
bosom and I know how it feels. You
seem to be all alone in this great
world."
"Yes, that's the feelin'."
"kite appears to be a desert to you?"
"Yes, ii reg'lar desert, with sand a
foot deep."
"Hut in your loneliness in the seem
ing emptiness of your life has it.not
occurred to you that you could do some
thing tb add' to the happiness of your
fellow-man?"
"Yes, it has."
"And will you do it?"
"I will. It's 'leven months now since
my wife was taken away and if you'll
point me out a woman about forty
years old who wants to get married I'll
pop the question so quick that it will
make her heels lift up. You beteher
life I want to do something for my
fellerman and I'm Waitin' right here to
get another sight of a woman whom
I've follered fur three miles and winked

There is one curious fuct respecting
the auimal creation with whicli you
will never become acquainted if you de
pend on your text books for informa
tion. . It is this: No living ropresenta;
tive of the animal kingdom lias more
than five .toes, digits or claws. to each
foot, hand or limb. The horse is the
type of one-toed creation, the camel of
the two-toed, the rhinoceros of the
three-toed and the hippopotamus of
four-toed animal life. The elephant
and hundreds of other animals belong
ing to different orders belong to the
great live-toed tribe.
Carious Remedy.

bought to be nn attempt at suicide,
