If the Cubans would only show some of the fight that made the Revolutionary fathers famous, Americans w-ould feel yet more kindly towards the patriots who are “bushwhacking" about the troebas on the “Pearl of the An tilles.” General Cssius M .

It is no use for the New York Sun to go in mourning and to waste space in funeral panegyrics over the death of its great editor, Dana licked the bucket and the other papers can do the rest.

An exchange says: “the edito rial page is the chief thing that keeps a journal above the level of. a purely commercial enterprise. The mere s> llii gos news is much like the selling of potatoes. A newspaper without honest opinions ably and frankly expressed, is like a body without a soul.” The Supervisors of Riverside county, Cal., in advertisihg for supplies have brought to light a law of that State that “wher. ver home produce articles can meet the requirements of and institu tion in this State as to price and quality of sui plies, then the Board of Supervisors must contract di rectly for such goods, irrespective of offers made by producers out ride of California.” A young woman in New York, according to W.

AN EDITOR’S TROUBLES. An editor of a Western newspa per is mourning the loss of two subscribers. Number one wrote asking how to raise his twins safely, while the other wanted to know how to rid his orchard of grasshoppers. The answer went forwaid by mail, but by accident he put them in wrong envelopes, so that the man with the twins re ceived this answer: “Cover them carefully with straw and set fire to it, and ihe little pests, after jump in’ in the Hames for a few minutes will be speedily settled.” And the man with grasshoppers was to'd to “give castor oil end rub their gums with a bone .” SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT. “Marriage,” said the old bache lor, “is but a lottery after all.”| “There’s where you’re off” re j plied Henry Peck. “I you draw a blank in the lot'ery you can tear it up ami that’s the end of it.” — ; Americus Times-Recorder.
