To the Editor of The Heo : As to the opening or closing of the exposition on Sundays I would say that the nvangelical Lutheran church , from a biblical nnd confessional standpoint , finds and advocates tint no command or restric tion of any kind Is given to the church of the Now Testament as to the observance of any special day. Matthew , S , Horn , xlv , IH , 1C , Col II , 10 , 17 , Aug. Conf , art \v and xxvlll. The selection of our Sunday- Is not ot a divine origin , but an Institution of the church It Is , therefore , an outrage to demand the closing ot the exposition 'from ' a biblical and religious ntanilpolnt professing to do this In obedience of the Master's will. Such doctrine la non-biblical absurd nnd ridiculous While we sincerely endorse good moral icasons to close this Institution on Sundays on part ot the gov ernment or exposition authorities , we defy the argument that It is the church's duty to dlctito to the state and worldly au thorities anything v.'hntover In such affairs Lot church and stnto stay separated for ever Matthew xxl , 21.

The proposed settlement of the aggregated claims ot the Hnrber Asphalt company was debited at length and with considerable vigor nt the clt > council commltteo meeting yesterday afternoon The contro\crsy re sulted only In n postponement ot a decision and the subject remains as nn Inspiration for further trouble. The nntter came up In connection with the consideration ot the proposed refunding ordinance which , ns It now stamls , Includes bonds to make the pay ment ot $60,000 demanded by the Harbcr set tlement. Uurklcy and Slulit raised the ques tion that the city could not pay these bills until they were adjudicated by the courts on account ot the charter provision that pro hibits the payment ot bills that had been rejected by a previous administration except after judgment hnd been obtained City Attorney Connell contended that the section did not apply It used the words , "ad\crsely reported on and rejected by a previous administration" Ho doclarcd that vvhllo these bills hnd-been repeatedly rejected , they had never been adversely re ported on. lie also Insisted that the effect of the charter provision could bo e\aded by Instructing him to confess judgment In United States court for $60.000. In arguing the matter the city attorney bccamo somewhat animated and Intimated that heas being criticised whan he had succeeded In making a settlement which was entirely In the advantage ot the city and tor which ho was entitled to credit Ho declared that there was only ono sldo to the propo sition and that any man of good business sense could sec that the settlement was a \ury favorable one. The city did not have a clmnco on earth to defend the suit If It came to trhl and It the council rejected the settlement ho wanted to bo relieved from the case and have a special counsel en gaged to represent the city After a long debate It was suggested that because the ordinance authorizing the bond Issue In the sum ot $300000 wan passed the council was not required to Issue the whole amount and It was decided to pass the ordl- nanco as It stood and lc.i\o the question of what bills were to be refunded to bo con sidered when the bonds wore Issued The council held an o\ocuti\o session with Major Moorcs In regard to the levy ordinance nt which the mayor presented his reasons for contending that a slight addi tional Increase should be voted The council failed to see It In the same light and It was agreed that the major should sign the ordinance as It now stands The major said that he .still ad- Sieied to his position that the le\y did not provide sufficient funds for ono or two departments He Had no feeling In Uic matter , however , ap It was purely n dif ference ot opinion bplween himself and the council and It the council would not agree to allow an additional mill or halt mill , he would sign the ordinance rather than compel the council to pate It over his \eto. He stated that his main bbjectisn referred to the small appropriation for street cleaning. Ho would li.uo the honoc'ot entertaining numer ous visitors this summer In his capacity an chief executive of the city , and proposed to take them over the c/ty / and show them what a metropolis had sprung up hero In the last thirty soars AH a citizen ot Omaha , his prldo was concerned In being able to show .hem clean and attractive streets that would KO futther than any ether single feature to ; lvo them a good onlnUm of the city. But , f the council Uiouglit .differently. It was of no use to submit a veto and whatever action was taken would bo harmonious. In regard to the fact that tlio delay In the lassage of the ordinance Is preventing a good many city employe. ? from obtaining their salaries , the mayor sild that this was the point that had given him more trouble than anything else. As a matter of fact , ho needed his salary as much as any one , but the matter of the levy was of so much Im portance that ho could not justify himself in acting hastily. Ho believed It to be Impor tant for the interests of the city that some additional provision should bo made for. street cleaning , and he had taken time to see what many of the leading property owners thought of the matter. As far as ho could loam , meat of them were of the oamo opinion and ho prcfjosed to make an effect to Induce the council to look at It In the same light. Some-thill ; ; tn TCnovv.

O , Pcb 7 Dr. C N Thomas of Illinois , who has Just returned from Cuba , where ho has boon study Ing the existing conditions on the Island for sev eral months past. Is now In Cleveland , nnd In speaking of the war said : "Krom the present Indications the war In Cuba will contlnuo for a long time to come The Spanish will never grant the Cubans their liberty as long us they can possibly help It. The Spanish nro not only a proud , but very patriotic people. They roalbe that 400 years ago they were the greatest and most powerful nation , and ruled one-tenth 01' the land on the globo. "Treaty between the Cubans and Spanish Is absolutely out of the question. The hatred between them was strong before the war and butli terrible suffering as both sides have endured slnco the war has com menced has intensified the feeling. The talk of Cubans accepting homo rule is simply ildlculous. Equally absnred is the Idea of Spain granting the Cubans home iul ns wo Americans understand home rule "Tho policy of the Cubans Is not to fight important battles. They justly say yellow fever Is destroying the Spanish army fast enough. Their plan Is to wear out Spain financially and the Spanish na tion is so weak financially that It finds It Impossible to realize the necessary $ ' ! C- 000,000 annually to carry oci the Cuban war and an additional $25.000,000 each year to pay the Interest on Its great debt. The re- porfs about the awful suffering among the ( women and children are to some e\- U oricct. In the large cities the suffer- iiii is not tiear so great as In the Interior of Cuba. In borne towns that I visited the sufterlng is beyond description nnd awful enough to make a strong man's heart ache , and the longer the war continues the greater Is the suffering " LOOKING roil V LOUVlj JIlMllHIUnil.
