Will anyone contend that the rail

business in the state has a greater
earning capacity at the present time
than ever before. Every railroad Is
carrying more rolling stock and more
expensive rolling stock than ever be

THE IMPORTANT ISSUES
Fault Flndlaff About Minor Things Drtwi
attention From th Magnificent
I'opulUt Kecord
When will our people learn to dis
tinguish between real, substantial is
sues and those of minor importance?
The people's independent party of Ne
braska, being made up -of old-time
anti-monopolists, very naturally took
up the question of railroad extortion
and discrimination and urged it from
the first. The former party platforms
recognized that the only permanent
relief could come from public owner
ship of these public utilities, and this
was demanded and made an issue. In
cidentally, and because it is a rank
discrimination in passenger traffic, the
agitation against passes was early be
gun; but in none of the early populist
platforms was It considered of suffic
ient importance to be mentioned there
in. The makers of those platforms
had wisdom and discernment. They
did not consider the pass as a cause,
but as one of the evil results of a
wrong system. They regarded it as a
boil on the body politic, caused by
impurities of the blood, and, believing
this, they demanded that the blood be
renovated, knowing that the boil
would disappear when the blood im
purities disappeared.
As time passed on and the party
grew in strength and Importance, it
attracted to It many persons of less
keen discernment than the members of
the "old guard." In fact, some of these
would even today make excellent mul
let heads. Hearing the pass question
frequently mentioned as one of the
evidences of railroad discrimination,
these weak sisteis became imbued with
the belief that the people's party was
organized solely for the purpose of
dealing death blows to the pass evil.
Here was something to harp upon
something which did not require much
study and they siezed upon It hun
grily. Later the republican strategy
board, knowing the value of tricking
the adversary Into wasting his ener
gies upon an immaterial or subordi
nate question, while neglecting the
main issues, kept hammering away
on the "failure of the populist office
holders to redeem their party pledges,
inasmuch as they have broken the car
dinal plank, to-wit: the anti-pass
plank," until about one-fourth of the
present populist party actually be
lieve that every populist platform,
from the time whence the memory of
man runneth not to the contrary, con
tained a rigid anti-pass plank and
pledged candidates not to touch, look
upon or handle the damnable things.
The truth is, that not until 1898 was
there ever a syllabi said in any state
platform regarding the pass question
it was considered only as of second
ary importance until then; and its
adoption then was urged largely by
men who have not in years paid out
any money for railroad fare.
The populist party went before the
people upon the issue of investing the
permanent educational funds in all
lawful securities permitted by the con
stitution, which would include state
general fund warrants. Did any of
the populist officers violate this
piedgez Every member of the board
of educational lands and funds, except
Governor Poycter. rode on railroad
passes. It is not denied. Is their
magnificent record in. keeping these
funds invested and drawing an income
for the cause of education, to be wiped
off the slate because they rode on
passes? Are those exceptionally big
apportionments of school moneys to
count for naught because the state of
ficers rode on passes? "Uncle Jake"
leased practically every acre of vacant
school land in the state, making a rec
ord that has never been approached by
any other land commissioner. I have
heard, but have no actual knowledge,
that he occasionally shoved a paste
board at the Conductor. Did that nul
lify the good work he accomplished?
The populist party went before the
people upon the issue of economy. The
records show what they accomplished.
Is that .of such little weight that we
may say: They have broken all their
pledges because they rode on passes?
Why not Be reasonable? "Let him that
is without sin cast the first stone."
And now as to the question of passes.
The chief agitators of the anti-pass
sentiment are newspaper men, who
do not pay money for railroad fare. It
is conceded that a pass is a discrimina
tion in passenger traffic, and, as such,
it is in violation of our state constitu
tion (Section 7, Art. XL), and, by
proper legislation, might be corrected.
Why not attack the system in an or
derly manner, instead of raving, "a
pass is a bribe?" Conceding that per
haps some weak men in public office
may be bribed by a pass, isn't it also
true that some weak newspaper men
may be bribed by "transportation?,"
"But, it is urged, "we pay for our
transportation in advertising." . Well,
do you"? I do not believe it. The al
leged contract between the railroad
companies and the newspapers is so
one-sided that it requires a consider
able stretch of the imagination to call
it the "meeting of two minds"' upon a
given matter. I have ridden on news
paper transportation, and, as the Hon.
John O. Yeiser would remark, "I'm
no pass virgin." Let's figure a little:
You publish a 6-inch ad. each week for
your "transportation." That is worth
a little over 16 cents a week, actual
cash value, and is probably a little
more than you get out of local adver
tisers. Then, you pay a little less
than $9 per year for your 1,000 or 2,000
miles of transportation. Last year, in
a controversy with a railroad man
ager over my right to transportation
as a representative of The Indepen
dent, placing the matter squarelv in
the light of a business transaction and
eliminating the question of favor. I
asked him, "Do you regard these news
paper contracts in the light of a busi
ness transaction, or do you consider
that you are extending a favor to the
newspapers with whom you make the
alleged contracts?" "Well," said he,
"we look upon it as a favor extended."
That was exactly what I wanted to find
out. Since then I haven't much pa
tience with the fellow who harps con
tinually, "a pass is a bribe, a pass is
a bribe," yet pays no railroad fare
himself when he travels, travelling on
what is confessedly a favor extended
by the railroad companies.

The Twin Pups
When the scepter was rescued from
the greasy, if muscular fist of Grover
Cleveland it would have been pretty
hard to draw the line between dem
ocracy and republicanism. Some few
distinctions were, it is true, kept up
in the platforms, but they counted for
nothing after the election was over.
The tariff was the best illustration
ever afforded. The party was pledged
to a tariff for revenue only, but the
country got Wilson's protective tariff
bill. Cleveland's last administration
was a republican, not a democratic ad
ministration. The same class and
character of men that controlled one
party controlled the other; the only
difference was in the brand that they
wore. In act, in deed, in thought, they
were precisely the same, working for
the same end and the self-same in

"The mineral resources of Cuba are
cf greater variety and extent than has
ever been Imagined In this country."
This is the statement of Mr. Charles
Willard Hayes of the United States
geological survey, who has just return
ed from a reconnoissance of the Island
of Cuba and the Isle of Pines to the
southward, writes the Washington cor
respondent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat
Mr. Hayes went at the request
of Governor General Wood and while
there visited the provinces of Havana,
Matanzas, Pinar del Rio and Santa
Clara. He was accompanied by two
assistants, Mr. T. Wayland Vaughn
and Mr. Arthur C. Spencer, who will
remain on the Island indefinitely to
complete the survey which was In
augurated by Mr. Hayes. In Matanzas
province he found copper, iron and
asphaltum and on the Isle of Pines de
posits of marble such as are equaled in
few places in the world. This marble
includes the finer grade of monumental
marble as well as deposits of the
coarser kinds for building material. In
Santa Clara province he found copper
and asphaltum, but saw no indications
of the gold which has been reported
there.
Of Iron ore he says the deposits there
are even larger than those in Pennsyl
vania, and they compare favorably
with the Lake Superior deposits. They
are found along the coast east of San
tiago and very accessible to transporta
tion routes.
Copper was found in big deposits
near Santiago, and Mr. Hayes says the
copper mines there were worked very
extensively until stopped by the Ten
Years' war. The Spanish method of
mining was to simply take out the
rich deposits and not pursue a method
of clearing up as the work progressed,
such as is practiced by the miners of
the United States.
The asphaltum is of the finest grade
In the . world and similar in most re
spects to the Trinidad and Venezuela
deposits. Much of It is found in the
vicinity of Cardenas, and in Cardenas
bay fleets of boats are used to dredge
It from the deposits at the bottom of
the bay. " This is used largely in the
manufacture of varnish and is worth
from $SO to $100 a ton. It Is found
that the asphaltum deposits exist in a
condition most easy to handle. The as
phaltum br.bbles up like a spring into a
crater which has been formed by the
hardening deposits as it flowed out in
a bowl shaped formation.
In Santiago province Mr. Hayes
found almost inexhaustible deposits of
manganese, which is used in making
steel by the Bessemer process,! The lo
calities where it exists are accessible.
The survey which is now In course
and which will be made under the in
structions of General Wood will devel
op the mineral resources of the island,
as up to this time practically nothing
has been known except of the iron and
copper deposits. There is but one pub
lished map of geological survey of the
island, which was printed in Madrid a
number of years ago. The researches
of our geologists Indicate that its pub
lishers had probably never been closer
to the island than the Spanish capital,
as it proved absolutely valueless and
not even geographically correct.
The peculiar mining laws of Cuba
open wonderful possibilities to Ameri
can prospectors. Mineral locations can
be secured in any part of the island
Irrespective of the present ownership
or occupancy of the land. It is literally
true that if a prospector discovers a
mineral deposit under the foundations
of a house of an islander who may
have occupied it from birth he is enti
tled to make an entry and can secure a
perfect title. The amount and shape
of the claim are to be determined by the
person making the entry. The cost of
taking out a patent is $60 for an area
of about 500 by 1,000 meters, and an ad
ditional charge Is made of about $1.50
per acre for additional mineral land.
The fee covers the cost of survey.
THE NEW HAT DOES IT.
Reason Why So Many Women Are
Seen Nodding: Their Heads.
Two young women who were riding
tip town in a Broadway car recently at
tracted the attention of several other
passengers by frequently nodding their
heads quickly as if a sudden cramp
had attacked them in the neck,, says
the New York Sun. A wise man who
had a sister gave what he alleged was
the true explanation of those frequent
eccentric nods.
"If you will keep your eyes open," he
said, "you will notice that almost every
woman you meet now is afflicted In the
same way. My sister tells me that
these nods are due to the present style
of hat. It is not or cannot be fastened
on the head tightly because it has a flat
crown, and when it begins to slip down
over the eyes too far the wearer soon
gets in the habit of righting It by a!
sharp little nod of the head. It Is1
merely an effort to keep her hat on
straight." : ,
This sounded fair to the men who
heard it, and the more they watched
the two young women the more certain'
they were that they had overtaken an:
Important discovery. - - - .
'stove.
In Its Inception the lore of Victor
Hugo for Adele Foucher was not lack
ing in romance, though of the most del
icate and innocent kind. They had
known each other as children, and little
Victor had already spent many an
evening in gazing silently on his future
wife. The first direct avowal made be
tween them (and here the poet trans
gressed the continental etiquette of
courtship) was when he was 17 and she
was 10. They were playing in the gar
den (for a boy of 17 Is only a child in
France), and in a burst of confidence
the young girl said, "Tell me your
greatest, secret, and I will tell you
mine." "My greatest secret," said Vic
tor, "is that I love you." "My greatest
secret Is that I love you," echoed Adele.
But though they had spoken, the kisses
which we consider proper to seal the
troth do not appear to have followed.
In an ode written later on the poet re
marks, with his usual hyperbole of
phrase, "You loved me without trans
ports, I loved you without madness."
Adele soon became frightened at the
audacity of their affection, and when
she shows the verses Victor has sent
her, her girl friends are scandalized.
They say that he will lose his respect
for her, but to reassure her he signs
his letters, "Your husband." He tells
her that she has become the daughter
of General Hugo Jby pledging herself to
him, and the Napoleonic legend was
sufficiently strong tq make the son of a
hero of the empire worth loving. The
result of even so small a flight of ro
mance as the lovers seeing each other
alone was inevitable.
When a year had elapsed, the parents
found out tbe affair, aud relations were
broken off between the two families.
Tied to his mother's apron strings
(albeit he was twenty), Victor wept,
then broke into a furious diatribe, and
sat down and wrote a novel. But
however useful the sorrow of his heart
may have been as material, he did not
give up hope. The father of his young
lady having written a "Manual of
Recruiting," he indicted a eulogistic
review, and as this did not draw the
stern parent he sent him his ode on
the birth of an heir to the throne.
M. Foucher replied with thanks, not
to the poet, but to the poet's mother,
and the chasm became a little nar
rower owing to this ingenious use of
literature.
Love sickness began to tell on the
poet, and he made up his mind at all
costs to learn if Adele loved him still.
Like most young ladies of the period,
she was taking drawing lessons, and
he obtained an Interview with her by
the prosaic means of stopping her in
the street. It was somewhat heroic
for a French lover to do it, and his
bravery was rewarded; then the
Interrupted correspondence again. The
lover watches her unpercelved when
she goes to mass; he hovers near the
house where he sees her light burning
at night. Then a dramatic Incident
happens. Victor Hugo's mother dies
suddenly: on the evening of the day
of the funeral he cannot resist the
Idea of seeking consolation from Adele.
He goes to the house where her father
is giving a ball; he enters unperceived,
and sees Adele laughing and talking
gayly. Believing that she does not care
for his sorrow, he rushes out, and some
time will elapse and explanations have
to be made before the wound is healed.
,M. Foucher calls to pay a visit of
condolence, but the embargo is not re
moved till the father takes bis daugh
ter Into the country. Victor follows
them and, with tbe assurance of a
young man, writes to say that he has
seen them with tbe greatest surprise;
that he would instantly leave the vil
lage had he not accepted several en
gagements, etc. The pity or the sense
of humor of M. Foucher was touched,
and he permits an interview, during
which the poet asks for Adele's hand.
It was the romanticist period, and the
father allows an engagement, though
not an "official one," in the hope that
Victor's circumstances will improve.
But for the present Victor may only
write to the father, and his passion is
only expressed In very quiet 1 might
almost say "official" terms.
When the loVe letters begin again,
the earlier impetuosity and pessimism
have mellowed to a more manly strain.
The poet is somewhat didactic and had
a great deal of advice to give his sweet
heart, but there was a subtle, uncon
scious flattery in his forbidding her to
let herself be snubbed by other wom
en. He is still treading on the clouds
when he remarks that "a man whose
one thought Is of an eternity of love
and happiness sees earthly things in
the true proportion they have from the
height. He accepts fortune with
calm, and sorrow with serenity, be
cause all that changes around him is
but accessory to a union which cannot
change." Happy lover, and, like that
other described by a poet whose love
never came to -flower In the immortal
line
Forever wilt thou love and she be fairl
Adele still seems to be thinking of
the unconventionallty of their love. An
English girl would not ask for so many
assurances of respect, but Victor bad
to Inform his betrothed categorically
that her behavior had been perfect.
He talks very seriously to her, and he
is scarcely past his twenty-first year
when he writes. "Independently of my
sorrows and domestic troubles" (bis
father, the general, gave him a very
small allowance). "I have to resign
myself to the disgust of literary ha
treds." He, , the great Victor, already
surrounded by wicked, detractorsl "I
am ashamed for the profession of let
ters!" he adds.
No Personal Objection.
"I see, Weary, dat de new soap trust.
If It comes, will raise de price of de
stuff so high dat it will be a luxury."
