The Missouri World, one of thestrong
est and most aggressive populist paper
In the south, clip the article In thl pa
per two week ago regarding the Oregon
ehe;tion with approval and says:
Notice th conclusion of the Ixokckn-
likM't'n arthde! "There is one valuable
lesson in the Oregon returns the need
of uniting in ONK political party all
Americans oooowtd to thl un-American
policy," . Jliat I lust wnot we nave
favored all along. That waJust what
wa beinir ratIdly arjcomollshed when In
"Ji tha iftr,i'fc'W-'r, Ot hatdiug
oooulist t'aisr in Nebraska, lolnea with
other la calling a halt to the uniting of
ri-former in one party, ana prociw'ojiy
told democrat not to com to the peo-
pie party practically told reformer
not U unite In one party, we nope ine
iitiiKt'KtthKH f and all other jopulst pa
per andfoll I'opulist will fi om now an
endeavor to unit all reformer in one
part in the People party.
The statement made by the Isii'KX
tiKnr it stand by the need of "uniting
la one political party all American op-
tosed to the un-Amerhjan policy" of
bonded debt and corporation rule Is the
greatest msid of the hour.
Th World say unite them In th peo
ple's part. We say unit them in ay
t.artv and that the kernel of our
comment upon the result of th Oregon
election, It is plain to any student of
politic that the reform voter cannot be
united in either of th old parties. It
has been the hope of th founder of the
people party that they might la united
In ft organization. In that direction
the populist of Nebraska and Kansas
mode greater progress than those of any
other states In the union, leaving the
free silver republican and free silver
democrat out of the count a larger per
emit of the voters in those state are
members of the peoples party than any
where else. In that respect our brethren
iu Missouri or anywhere have no ad van
tuge over us.
Ho far a principle go there is no rea
son why real reformers should not all
unite in the peoples part, Rut suppose
they won't, Huppose antagonism and
prcjudie have arisen that preveut the
joining of all progresive element under
our banner. What then? The need of
union, of accomplishing our purpose, is
stronger than the need of any
party. If no party is in the field that
can unite all reformer it is the immed
iate duty of all reformers to take step
toward the organization of one, Thi
paer doe not say that such is the case
but It doe say that circumstance point
strongly In that direction. The result
in Oregon point in that direction,
I-ct populist in Missouri and elsewhere
take notice. The great body of popu
list in Nebraska will never again be
come democrats or republicans. They
wilt try to accomplish result in their
own Ntate, to finish the work of redeem
ing Nebraeka from the ring of robber
wnom they found la power two year
ago, to restore the school children their
money and the people their rights.
They will stand true to the action of
theoople' party nationally, so long as
it stands by its prcMcut principle. Rut
le-yond the claim of any and every
party organization they hold the attain
ment of their principle and if It shall be
found that the people's party cannot
unite the forces tieceesury for victory
they stand ready to join with honest
men of all parties in securing the great
est need of the political hour "a union
in one political party of all Americans
oppoeud to the present un-American
IKjIlcy."

Cuba is the largest of the West In
dia islands and lies about J00 miles
south of Florida. The Curribbean sea
washes the south shore and the Oulf
of Mexico the north. The island Is
over 700 miles lonir and from no to
100 wide, In form it resembles a
sleeping infant, lying upon his left
side, head to the east. In area it is
about the size of rennsylvnnia with
one-third the population. Its' capital
city is Havana, located on the north
shore about J50 miles from the wet
end nnd Is southwest of Florida, The
whole island lies within the torrid
zone and abounds in tronleal fruits
nnd vegetation. Much of the native
timber i valuable, cedar, mahotmnv
nnd rosewood. The island hns been
under Ppanfsh rule ever since it dls

slavery was commenced in 1871 and

Secretary of War Alger ha woakenod
on hi scheme to keep William J, Bryan
out of the army.

stupid politics and worse patriotism for
him to persecute too man wuo received
5,fi00,000 votes for president of the
United States. Mckinley, with a nar
rowness characteristic of the man, ig
nored Bryan's offer of services, and when
Ifryun begun to raise a regiment of sol
diers Alger thought it would be smart
to prevent the acceptance of that regi
ment. All the anti-democratic newspapers
were filled with spiteful gloo'over Alger's
shrewd trick. But, It seems, a new light
has dawned on the secretary of wur.
Jlo ha discovered thut he had made a
monumental mistake when Missouri of
fered Bryan a regiment, and so he ha
changed his plan,
Now bo proposes to accept Bryan'
regiment and to send it "to guard out
frig Islands at the rhillpplncs." Tha
Ludroues or Marina Island have been
suggested. Thi banishment or Bryan
to the other side of the world Is really a
brilliant idea. The only wonder Is that
It did not occur to Alger and McKlnloy
sooner.
