Senator Iubols say that "we" mean ing thereby those free sUreritea who call themselves Republicans "will not sup port a gold standard man on a gold standard platform. There must be a plain declaration In favor of the restora tion of silver as standard money" that Is, In favor of free coinage "by the St. Louis convention If they expect or hope for the electoral votes west of the Mis souri river" meaning thereby the twenty electoral votes of the Rocky Mountain states, where silver and financial dishon esty abound. If the convention, thrown Into con sternation by Senator Dubois' threats, and willing to do anything rather than lose twenty electoral votes, should adopt a 1 to 1 platform, then there would be a bolt compared to which that Dubois talks of would be as a molehill to a mountain. As a result of that bolt the Republicans would lose all the states east of the rocky mountains, and they are the Mates which elect presidents. The Democrats, holding their conven tion a month later, would catch at the chance of salvation thus unexpectedly held out to them. They would draft the most unequivocal and uncompromlsng of sound money platforms, and on It they ' would elect their presidential candidate if ha waa as "nod as the platform. The Republicans would gain Utah. Idaho, Wyoming and Montana. They would torn New York, Ohio, Indiana and Illi nois. The swap would not be an even one. - As between great loss and a certainty of deXeat and a small loss and a reason -bio certainty of victory no sensible man or body of men can hesitate for a moment - which to choose. Senator Dubois would . not hesitate. So he has not the least idea that his threatened bolt will frighten the convention. But why speak of a "threatened bolt" as far as he and the four oO.tr free silver! tes. calling them selves Rt publicans, who voted against the tariff bill, are concerned? They have done their worst. They have left their party already. The value of voting at the primary elctiuas has never been fully appreciated by the people. While citizens generally have been quite willing to turn out oil election day and vote their party choice on a ticket already prepared for them, they have seldom been willing to give the same amount of time to secure the nomination of men on the ticket th y wish to vote. The result has been that they have either had to abld? by the choice the professional politicians of their party have offered them, or bolt it and vote for the candidates of the other party. It has never occurred to them that they might exert a potent in fluence in nominating the candidates they would like to vote for If they would but take a little time and trouble to that end. ' Now the fact Is the primary elec tions are more important than the gen eral elections, for the primaries have to do with the selection of candidates. No man has a right to complain that the candidate of his choice is not nominated at a party convention If he refuses to attend the primary elections and help to select delegates that would be favor able, to his choice. The primary Is the starting point, the fountain source of every political ticket, and it is the con trol of this that givee party managers and the so-called "machine" all their power. Deprive them of control of th? primaries and the "machln" goes to pieces. Here, then, Is where the people must begin If they would purify elections and nominate reputable men for office Let It be written in letters of blazing light, so that every vot -r may see it and understand. The primary election is of far greater Importance to the people In every way than the general election. It Is said to be the belief in admlnis tration circles that we might recognize the belligerency of the Cubans without bringing on war, but that if we recognize their Independence or go about lnterven tlon In an offensive manner hostilities between this country and Spain would certainly ensue. To what extent Spain would be able to Involve other European powers Is the very grave question which cannot be determined at this time, but which Is now being anxiously considered by the president and his advisers. Th-y do not know whether Spain has any alli ances or can count upon the support of any of the powers, and the administra tion would much like to know whether Spain is Isolated or whether she has resources which even we might find It troublesome to match. Of course there is a popular delusion that "we can whip all creation," but if "creation" should happen to be the army of Ger many, the navy of France and the gold of Britain, the combination might be a trifle too much for us. There is a be lief, founded upon certain information which has come to the administration, that both Franc and Germany, acting without concert, are strong-ly opposed to the vigorous stand which tree admlnlstr lion has taken on the Monro doctrine. Woth countries see In our Monroeism tendency on the part of South Amcrti to establish closer trade rWalron wit the I'nlted State at the expense of other nations. This is especially obnoxlou; lo Germany, which of late has been branching out for that trade, Germany Interests In Cuba sre very lante, ami any change In the political power woul I apt to aff'Vt existing comtrnnvlal rota Hon. These are some of the reason why the Cuban situation Is a great de more complicated ami di'llcate than th average member of congress thinks, an why the prealdent bellevea congress should act with due deliberation. According to a Washington newspaper the coterie of political manipulators who are conspiring to d?-fwt MoKinloy have discovered a new, and. In their opinion, j UM ww,wn to hllr, ,n, nl, of Ir victim.

The amusement loving public of Asto- ria will receive with delight the an nouncement that the ever popular and ughahle farce-comedy 'I & V will be here next Thursday evening. Stewart's comic players, whom the reople of Astoria will for the first time In five years have the pleasure of Baring In the extremely runny farcc-comeiiy "V I." consists of artists as clever In theli lines as one would wish to see or listen to. Mr. James F. Post, the Irish comedian of the company, first made his apepar auce in New York five years ago, and so successful was he In characters of Irish nature that there became a great demand for his services. Mr. Stewart. upon seeing him. exclaimed. "That man' face looks like the part." and engaged blm then and there. Mr. Post is pos seasetl with the faculty of making the audience roar with laughter Immediately upon his appearance on the stage. Is the funniest face of any man on the American stage today. Mr. Slsde Murray Is an Australian, aid with his comedy and singing he ha for the past ten year amused the then etr-goers of the world, making, however, bis nrst appearance on the Pacific coast this season. Miss Ashley, the dashing soubrette of the company. Is a Xe Yorker, and has played through the East, never failing to make a pleasing impression upon li audience. Miss Villa Sayne, the prima donna of the company, has a very rich soprano voice, which has won her great success In the metropolis. She is graceful and handsome and is an admirable executant. John Weiner was born in Portland and is new returning to the country of his birth after an absence of seven year. He has a very fine tenor voice and sings all the new song of the day. Edward Russell is a comic singer. drncer and tumbler: in fact does every thing almost that is funny. Mr. Rice Is also a very clever come dian. j he McLelland slaters are two hand some and wlnnlrg young ladles, who sing and dance very gracefully. Miss Ll.ly Russell, the skipping rope queen, is also clever. Miss Schults, .the young lady with German dialect who plays Mr. Unger- blotts. Is also with the company. Nowadays It is only necesasry to throw a few songs and alleged wttlcisms to rave a so-called farce-comedy. The pub lit soon tire of this sort of trash and demand a faroe-comedy with a founds tlon; In other words, a farce-comedy with a plot "U I is a farce-comedy with a plot, and Its great success for the last five seasons Is greatly due to that fact RESCUE CLUB.

Exchange. The three little Amerioan thlldivn ll Ing in Freiburg. Germany, opened thol eyes In astonishment oie morning as tlic locked out of the window. This l w!i they saw: Far In th distance, high above the city, apprarvd a liny dark hjol, and then another: nearer th y came, growing larger and whiter, until finally, by the time they reached the dark-red spire of the btautiful cathrdial they could bo seen lo he Urge birds with twigs In their beaks ami with their til fH streaming out behind. They ullght ed upon a laige chimney, on the broad I'pper side of which was either the rm- nant of an old met or the foundation of a new one They went to work In i curious way to build up this uncomfort able looking nest. For three or four days the birds made repeated visits to the Black Forst where they found the crooked twigs that they preferred for their little home. When these distorted sticks were M in order to their evident satisfaction, they then brought bits of something In their long bills, that the children concluded must be the pine needles to make the nest the least bit softer than the hard branches. Then came periods through the early spring days when one of the storks that the children picked out to be the mother stork stayed at tome and sat upon the nt. And Keautirui views she had from her lofty home. Overhead, the blue sk. which toward evening became wonderful canopy of sliver and gold and billlant colors as the sun went down and the mist came up the Rhine valley To the west wa the dim outlln; of the beautiful blue Alsatian mountains, and In the east the dark mountains of th famous Mlack Forest, covered with th rcdolt-nt pine tree. Nearby the dark- red tiles of the Irregular roofs and th delicately traced spire of the cathedral ma le an excellent setting tor this ruilous little home. Nor was tins mother stork lonely, fur the omnipresent English sparrows Iwlt tered and flew about with the great st agitation and curiosity. Now and then a daintily dressed thrush and other un known Mrls with sweet and curious notes would pause In their flight, sUrtl'd by the strange sight. Through the period ol keeping the eggs warm Papa Stork was most kind In bringing food to his patient wife, and even taking his share of the duty while Mrs. Stork took an outing In a trip to the Rhine, twelve miles away. Never were birds watched more closely by IrttH bright American eyes. And now one morning thre was a great bustle In the neighborhood of this won derful nest. A clattering of children's tongues and pointing of finger to the little home in the chimney, and all ey.s were turned up lo the pretty sight that the photographer caught a Utile later with the camera. Three little heads that seemed all beaks and great bright eyes appeared above the twigs of the nest and opened their hungry mouths until their heads seemed quite lost. From this time on both Papa and Mamma Stork were continually on the wing after food for these hungry liahles. At almost any Hire of day when the children went to the window to loi.k at the nest, one of the storks would lie en Hying homeward with a wrl:gilng frug or a fish In its mouth. once they brought a friend home with them to show him. with great pride, th-se baby torks, and it was at this l!m; tuelr picture was taken. The little storks grew so rapidly that It was not long before they could gel up their long, thin, wabbly legs and looked down on the children below. When at last they reached that stage of growth that their parents thourht they ought to try their wings, they be gan to fly and flop about the neighbor ing roofs, until their wings and Uf grew strong enough to take longer trial rips. Finally, one day, Papa Stork leading, followed by the family, thty took their farewell flight, and the Amerl ran children shouted a last goodbye to m as they winged their way up the Rhine valley. The German people are always happy when the storks build their nests on their chimneys, as they think the storks bring good luck to the people In the house, and nothing Is done to disturb them during the short time that they stay. Many years ago, when the house had roofs of thatched straw. It was ery common sight to see thes? nets on the roofs among the straw: but the thatched roofs are no longer allowed In he cities. In the city of Freiburg, where there are WW people, there were this spring only two of these families of storks that caret! to return to their old home. KATHARINE F. REIGHARD.
