"Truth (wove mu tliivtgs.’ F Entered i 1 the Post office asa Newspaper. FRIDAY, MAY 26, 1899. «GOOD EVENING. Mr. Cbllis P. Huntington says that the masses are over-educated. Mr. Huntington may be right, but the prac- tice and sentiment of :the nineteenth century is to afford more and better facilities for higher education. The disarmament project now being , discussed at The Hague has reason and sentiment on its side, but disbanding great armies and closing the factories where war material is made will have a very disturbing eli'ect uponthe labor market. Labor has a dislike for standing armies, but whether it will relish and assimilate this addition to .its ranks remains to be seen. If the silver wing and the gold wing of the-Democratic party do not get to- .gether pretty soon there will be a gap so wide that the Republicans will march to victory through it forty thousand abreast. L While the Legislature has its hand :in it might not be unwise (to, change ‘ the day of city and town elections from the prevailing Monday to Tuesday. MOnday elections are responsible for considerable Sabbath-breaking. Ex-President Harrison has not lost his powers of compact statement. Of Admiral Dewey he says:~—“The things which Dewey has done and the things which he has left undone have made him as great a diplomat as he is a lighter. ” “Who is Alexander Troup of New Haven? I say that a gentleman whose financial judgment is so warped that he advocates silver at a ratio of 16 to 1 when the market value is about 30 to 1 is not competent to judge correctly.”— John H. Light at Hartford. And yet Mr. Light caused the ap- pointment of.John W. Scully as deputy sheriti‘, andthose who ought to know declare Mr. .Scully advocated Bryan and the Chicago platform. Lake Erie fishing expeditiOn was a great success. There was no kick on embalmed bait. The Cleveland-Evans The Bradley-Martins are now blarst- ed Britishers. This looks like an im- position on England. ‘ An Uncle Tom‘s Cabin company was wrecked in Ohio the other day. It got oil“ easier than the one that was lynch- ed in Texas. By having their arms placed out of their reach, the Cubans large measure be protected from them- will in a selves. ‘ That sea serpent observed oli‘ Cape May was rather short, but it may be long enough before it is seen at the last of the seaside resorts. New York’s Tax Commissioner has decided that Mr. Astor must pay $40,- 030 additional taxes. This will make a substantial addition to his poor opinion of this country. The gentlemen who are too busy talk- ing hard times to go to work for thier living will perhaps be astonished to _ . earn that the late Roswell P. Flower-gel V first job was ina. brickyard, and that he received $1.50 per ,week for his services. L “Mr. Scully has always been a pro- nounced Republican and has never fal- tered, it is said. in his allegiance ‘to that party or in his desire for its ad- vancement. ”—Sentinel. . The Sentinel falters in the broad assertion which it started out to make of Mr. Sculley’s allegiance to the Re: publican party, and by the use of the words “it is said” qualifies its state: mept. However, notw1thstanding the de- nials which are now being made, We stand ready to convince Sherifi Hawley that Mr. Scully met in the room with a party of prominent Democrats and there publicly expressed his approval of Mr. Bryan and free silver; that he stated to a gentleman after election that he had voted for Bryan; that he . . was present in Democratic head- . ‘ _ quarters while the returns [from the presidential election Were being re,- ceived: and that a relative in’conversa- . tion with a Republican prior , to 'elec- .tion stated that Mr. Scully advocated tree silver.

Probably one of the most peculiar customs noticeable in the Cuban mar- kets is the extremely small purchases —small in quantity—made by the lower class of natives. Small gourd cups, holding scarcely more than a table- spoonful, are used in measuring rice, flour, beans and peas.- Cabbages are cut 'in wedges the size of a cigar, turnips into eighths, squashes into minute chunks and onions into halves. Pota- toes are sold by number. It is no un- common thing to see a woman buy a piece of meat weighing a couple of ounces. then pass/through the market purchasing a tablespoonful of vegeta- bles here and and a piece of garlic there, and, finally, after an hour of gossip, de-. part with food products worth five or six cents. O’Brien-“’nlcott Fight. NEW YORK, May 20.—Joe Walcott, the colored boxer, who has deserted the ranks of the lightweights to become a middleweight, knocked out Dick O’Brien in the fourteenth round of their fight at the Broadway Athletic club last night. \ ...‘ LQW‘K .
