They can be distinguished by their loud braying, No trace of them can be found, and the manner of their escape is not known as they were carefully guarded and intended for driving in double harness.

AVARICIOUS AND CRUEL. Kansas City Times: History can be searched in vain for a single instance showing any other object of Spanish conquest than lust for gold, going hand in hand with an utter disregard of rights of property and of human life. The reign of the ancestral sword of Spain was an absolutism of treachery and murder. The ancestral sword is a synonym for spoliation, for heartless cruelty, for carnage, for horrible persecution, and for the fiendish thirst for blood and gold. THE CHINESE WAY. Five more bank failures occnred yesterday. The Chinese have a specific remedy for such affairs. They take everybody that has anything to do with a bank failure and cut his head off. It is stated that there has not been any failures for the last two or three centuries. When the last one occurred, it is related, then thirty-two unfortunates lost their heads. Mr. Comptroller Eckels in excusing the recent frequent bank failures said that no other business could show so few. Perhaps there is tood for thought for the comptroller in a recent statement made by ex-Mayor Grubbs of'this city. He said that there has been but two bank failures in Mexico in twenty years. Perhaps the gold standard can account for so many bank failures in this country within recent years. Indianapolis Sentinel. If the Chinese method should be accepted in this country, the neck of the little sucker fraud, Eckels, should be the first one to feel tiie cold steel. Anarchists in fact. The real anarchists in this country, th^ men who are arrayingclass against class, arc the men who are in Washington now by invitation of the Dingley committee engaged in dividing the vestments of the people, likewise their ilesh and blood, among themselves. Terre Haute Gazette. HAULING DOWN THE FLAG. The editor of the Madrid Impareial says that in Cuba the Spanish are “fighting for a glorious past.” That is precisely it. Spain fights for the past, with all its wrongs and tyrannies. Tiie Cubans are fighting for a glorious future of liberty. It is a contest between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries Senator Walthall, of Mississippi, has joined Messrs. Olney and Frye in reinforcing Wev ler’s objection to Congressional uctii n in support of Cuba. Who will be next to haul down the Stars and Stripes and run up the Tory skull and cross-

bones?
