The republican party is mora anx ious for the welfare of the bondholder than for any other diss of people. It is the bond holders' party. An imp of darkness at the writer s elbow suggest that the recent editor ial in the Tost about "Little Thing" had personal reference to the editor of that publication, but the Insinuation is rejected with the scorn it d serves. The Jocrsal bears that numerous friends of Matt Spader of Wabash are urging him to stand for the nomina tion for commissioner lo that district. Mr. Spader is a German-American of excellent character and rare cood sense who would make a careful and con scientious oficlaL The fact that Col. Bryan waa derad an ovation at every stopping place while enroute to Jacksonville is looked upon by the plutocratic press ae highly improper. Hi popularity with the people excite both their envy and wrath, but in this ease It i Impotent. He is still the popular Idol. Undeb Lincoln the republican party was the Iparty" of the people. . Of lata years it has steadily degenerated, and now it 1 the aTOwed champion of the bond-holders and meney-chan-em Like the Jewish tesapl In the time of Christ, "It ha mad the Lord'a boo tba boose of merchandise." Tbe republicans of the Third com missioner distaict struggled through forty-three ballots in the efforts to se cure a successor to tbe present com missioner, and at last hit upon Turner Zink, a pronounced prohibitionist, as their candidate which pretty nearly assures the election of tbe fusion nom inee. Mr. Hayes was dropped like a hot potato because be was true to a friend, and Mr. Zink will learn further on that that is no mean thing to possess. fortunate for these men to be handi Cipped by a member of the late Mosher gansf. It is observed that this administra te going ahead in hot baste with the lame of bonds, in crder to get them out before it completes its peace nego tiations, and it is so anxious to serve its friends, the bankers, that it has is sued a circular assuring them that those who have offered to take large amounts shall be supplied first, and those who offered to take small amount must wait till tbe big bidders are supplied. Truly this a patriotic administration. The avidity with which a republican congress agreed to saddle an interest debt of 530,000,000 upon people to pay in the next thirty years, was astonish ing in view of the probable shortness or the Spanish war but that alacrity in authorizing the bond issue of $400,000, 000 is more than equalled by tbe celer ity now used in getting a big bunk of the bonds out before the war closes. Axoxo tbe names spoken of for commissioner in the Third district, is that of 1. J. Conner, a prominent far mer of Tipton precinct. Of Mr. Con ner The Journal bears very flatter ing reports. He has not been In poli tics heretofore, but is a man highly res pected by his neighbors. He has youth, vigor, energy and industry to commend him, and if be is tbe nominee he will be likely to give his opponent such a race as will Zink him into ob scurity. - The republicans on Saturday made two very decent nominations for the house. Not much can be said to their disparagement personally. Mr. Pollard is a bright young man who made quite n good record for himself in the last house. He is badly afflicted with what the Germans would call geswollen kopf.but that is his greatest weakness, tlr. Young is a farmer of character, but I not over-supplied with brains or general information. He affects great morality, i a bitter partisan and could he depended upon to vote as the party boots dictate in every ease. It is un Undeic Lincoln an income tax was a proper war measure. Under McKin ley the rich are too good to be com pelled to pay their part of the cost cf the war. Tbe banks and other big corporations evade the war revenue tax, while the people have to pay the whole bill. Such is the power of plu tocracy over modern republicanism. Haven't the people had their fill of such an incubus? A SAILOR BOY S LETTER. A ruttnuioutli Boy on the I'. 9. S. Colum bia Wrltd H nni to Mother. The following letter has been re ceived from John McCarthy, a Platts mouth boy, who is serving in tbe navy aboard the U. S. S. Columbia. He is a brother of Jos. McCarthy and a son of Mrs. Mary McCarthy,to whom the let ter was addressed: G cant an amo, Cur.A, July 17. Dear Motmer: This morning we arrived in this har bor and a very prettv place it is. The only draw back to its beauty is the fact that it is a veritable fever bole. Three ships lying close to us are flying tbe yellow flag. There are about twenty men-of-war'and transports here and some ten or twelve colliers making a very considerable fleet and if fever gets a foothold in the ships it will do more damage than the Spaniards can do with guns. Sitting here in tbe gun sponsor where I am writing I can see Fort McCalla, tbe first place taken by our maiines and the American flag planted. Just below is a camp of Cubans with tbeCuban flag floating in the breeze and all around tbe harbor, except the entrance, is girt with high, rugged hills. One would think that this was a healthy climate to look at it, but it is the deadly heat one day and the fierce rains that makes it so sickly. I think we will coal here and then make tracks for l'oru llico. probably tbe city of San Juan and occupy it. If we do we will ha certainly in luck, for that is a tine climate To tell the truth about it, I would rather go under if I have to than g by the fever rolite. We have had little or no sickness aboard aa yet. There must have been some terrible suffering from hunger in Santiago be fore it sui rendered, for they hstd noth ing but dry bard tack and water for a mouth before tliej gave in. Two days befoie a whole regiment of cavalry came up to the American lines and threw down their arms and begged the Americans to give them something to eat. We just came from Santiago where we landed troops on the 11th from Massachusetts, Illinois and Wiscon sin. They were a fine body of men. The moruiug we arrived there I was somewhat thrilled for on all sides were evidences of war. Battleships with their 13-inch guns frowning from out their turrets, the veritable dogs of war; then the cruisers, then the sm all er but plucky gunboats. They could have shelled thecity without tbe Span iards beipg nble to train their guns on us, for the coast line is like the sketch. Here is given a drawing of Santiago harboi. Ed. There was a man etaliontd on a mountain above the city where be could signal whether our shells fell short or not. He used a heliograph to signal with. We could not see tbe city for there was a high hill between it and us. On the 14th the news was signaled from tbe shore that Sam iago had sur rendered. I could not see any reason at the time for their surrendering in view of the fact that they hud two men to our one and a commanding po sition at the entrance to the harbor. The forts would tbow every once in a while what appeared like'piV driver hammers, which woul.l scretcb like a cage of parrots. It does not rain there. The bottom merely drops oat of the sky. You would imagine if you were in a rain here that a thousand people were playing on you with a garden hose. As for thunder and lightning I would say. that nervous people should give this place a wide berth. Well, mother, I will tire jou no longer with this letter and will clote Loping all are so gocd as to Inquire about me will write to me, I remain, with love to all, your son, John E. McCarthy.
