The proposed Trans-Mississippi meet now depends largely on the ac tion of the eM)sitiou authorities. In case they decide that they cannot put In a track, there is a scheme on foot to secure the baseball grounds of the Omaha team and build a track there. h the ground are only two blocks from the exposition, such a plan seems entirely feasible. i ipyp crisis (Continued from first page.) count of the increase it would give to the slave states. In 1MU tho I'nitcd States offered to purchase Cuba for SI 25,000,000 but Spain refused the of fer. In 1W1 negotiations were again n-suined and the. administration at, this time !nlked of giving $400,000,000. bill no definite offer was made. hat then is !he basis of the pres ent American feeling? It is based on three thoughts. (1.). This century of dispute has been preparing us for the feeling of the present. ('.'.) The two peoples are of a different race. It is Hi Anglo-Saxon against the Celt. (3.) These feelings have lxjen intensified by the terrible disaster to the M.ninc. America now says to Spain: "You hnve abused your privilleges and those privileges shall Imj taken from you; de part." Cuba is over one-half the size of Ne braska with a most fertile soil of which one tenth is cultivated; four per cent arc forests, and much of the territory is unexplored. In IM13 the population of the Island was l,000,...i. Today it is estimated from l.'.'.'iO.OOO to 1,000.000 inhabitants. In 1803 the Un ited States imported from Cuba $78,- 000,000 worth of goods and its exports to Cuba amounted to $83,000,000. In lsoo we sent to Cuba $7,000,000 worth of goods and lmuglit $10,000,000 worth of goods a decrease of one-half that of pn'vious years and this year the trnile will not be one-tenth of Hint of five years ago. We are not going to Cuba to avenue these losses in trade but these losses "- "i'v i'"1" iiihi. ii-iH-i ik need-1 ed nnd that tho people, of Culm must have that on which to live. We now come to the present prob lem, what sljall be done and who shnll do that which is to be done. In. the first placo we oaauay nothing shall be done but the American ieoplo havp answered that this will not do. Again n of' we mill iivognle the lielllgerenr the ( tibaiiH but the ila fop that h. pnased. Nut that we do not wis. to aiconl their ting just rights hi our HeajKirts but we wish to givo them bie and een the recognition of Imlcpcu dnce will not do. Then wo come to the question of intervention and rec ognition. Congress decided this morn ing for intervention and the recogni tion of the lndcK'iuleuce of the people of Cuba. It was the people, ail not tli Cuban govriuneut which was iveog al.ed. We luixe recognized a people without a government which is some thing the world has never seen Define. It Is a new problem and existing lnttr natlontil law falls to provide, for It. We an' mnklng international law. The question of the Cuban debt must now be considered. When a m tlon gains Independence its local debt must be assumed by the newly fnruml nation. It f an open question as o the respnislblllty for th. local Cuban debt mil It Is doubtful whether we miiy not be entangled by tlui). quen tion. The effects of the action of congres this momliig are very important. It is linunil to strengthen tho hands of the pivsdcnt.

The civil wnr, bad is It was, had a tllstiuMly up ward tencenoy on civilization and the present contliet will aid tho muse of humanity. Hut if corruption and vain glory are to creep in and we are o glery in our .strength for the sake of strength alone, then let us huvo no wn Hut if Industrialism shall con tinue to he dominant and if warcoinca tluii let ns wngo a just war for the cause of humanity. A?irSKMKXTS AT PKXNSYIA AN1A. At the University of Pennsyb.iuin, one of Hie aesthetic amusement recent ly indulged in was the annual sopho-mnrc-frcshman bowl fight, in which aliout 10 freshmen and 7." sophomores took part. From the account given in the Pcnnsylvaniai!, it must be i. truly edif.ving c.iiertaiiiment, an of a most elevating character. A few of the de tails will show the startling ingenuity oi such n coutcKt: "A number of the freshmen started for the bowl, while the others iried to get the lMini man over the reiuv. They succeeded in getting him about hirty yards, but there, being pulled in every direct inn, lie fainted, and had to be re moved from the field. "Meanwhile the fight raged fiercely around the bowl. The freshuien" tac tics were to pull a man off and sit on him. All through, however, the soph omores succeeded in keeping at least a dozen men on the bowl. I'lie heat was intense and the contestants who after the first few minutes, became list less trying to get a breath of cooler air outside the fight around the bowl,. were thrown forcibly back by the spectators. The fight was not nea.'lv as fierce as those which have preceded it, owing, in a large measure, to the crowd which closed in on the ineu." If the thousand or more spe....tors had kept out of the way, more bri'al ity might have been indulged ri, and the tight would probably huvo been more, satisfactory. It is really too bad they wer so inconsiderate of the pleas ure of the students. The Lantern. OFF FOR COLORADO. Tlie Nebraska delegates wlio are to debate against Colorado, left Lincoln Wednesday afternoon for Colorado Spriii(K. Tliose who nre to ".stand up for Nebraska" in Colorado are Miss St nil and Messrs.
