BEST AVAILABLE COPY PRESS COMMENTS. Publlo Opinio from Ike Four Quarter Of th Amitlcu Nation, Indicated by Frew. Canonibarg Dally Notos. A staff correspondent of The PitU-buru Vupatch, a conservative and trustworthy paper, writes from Paris to say that Americans who declare that they are not insulted at every turn in the French capital simply do not understand the French language, lie says that he and a friend were jeered at as "lea cochons Americaines" wherever they went, and were even driven violently out of a cafe in which they Bought shelter from a sudden shower. The proprietor told then be wanted no American-English custemers about his place.

This correspondent asserts what has already been surmised, that the modified attitude ot one or two French newspapers is due to the protest of certain shopkeepers who are large advertisers, and who do not wish to lose the good Americans dollars. These papers do not represent French public opinion. From the Montgomery Advertiser. The Hawaiian alphabet has but twelve letters, and now we've got to go to worK and teach them fourteen more That's one of the drawbacks we encounter by taking them in. Boston Globe.

Upwards of 500 tons of gold, which is about one twenty-fifth of all the cold in the world, lie in the treasure vaults in A evr York City. It would outweigh ten locomotives. How much sleep would it aa nave Bought in tne swelter ing metropolis last week New Orleans Picayune. There is always a shady side to any iainuy tree. New York Commercial Advertiser, The events of a few days mark the the passing of the Cuban legend.

The idea that the United States is lighting a war or liberation to rescue au op pressed people frnm bloodthirsty tyrants, is now well laid aside. We are lighting to restore Cuba to civilization, and to protect the islands from the Insurgents as much as from the Span lards, or that matter we might as well turn the island over to the Spaniards as to turn it over to the Cubans. Chicago News. It by no means follows that the Cubans are incapable of self government or unworthy of a certain degree of liberty. A good deal seems to depend on their ability to llnd the right headship.

The Cubans will probably compare quite favorably with the Mexicans, and Mexico under Diaz is able enough to take care of herself. The reaction of disgust against the Cubans goes quite too far. Take them for what they are and give them a chance. Philadelphia Ledger. When the war broke out the one thought in the minds of most of our citizens was the capture of Havana, which, it was believed, would soon be followed by a treaty of peace.

It would not be surprising if the war ended without any concerted attack upon Havana whatever. Philadelphia Press. With the troops in a region healthy and welt supplied with subsistence the investment and fall of San Juan is only a question of a brief time. The expeditions now on the way make up a naval and military force against which resistance is in vain. And aside from what the peace negotiations may do in the premises, General Miles, it would appear, will carry through the PuerU Itico conquest without any of the woes that beset the victorious army of Shatter in the environs of Santiago, Fonghkeepsie Eagle: The latest proposition looking toward a British-American alliance is decidedly practical.

It is no less than that two cent postage penny postage over there shall be established between Great Britain and America. In other words, that our ordinary two cent domestic stamp shall carry a letter to any part of the United Kingdom. Why shouldn't it? We can send a letter to any part of Canada or Mexico with a two cent stamp, and Great liritian has just established penny postage with Canada. It does not cost nearly so much to send mail to London as to Alaska and to Honolulu, Indeed, we can send papers to Great Britain now for a single cent. We have annexed Canada and Mexico by mail.

Let us annex the mail service of Great Britian. Syracuse Standard: Spanish politicians may affect surprise at the American demand that Puerto Ilico and anything else belonging to their country in the West Indies shall be surrendered; but they will surely discern some forethought in the provision, which is intended to afford a guarantee that no American ship shall ever again be treacherously blown up in a Spanish port this side of the Atlantic.

5, 1898 For The Daily Optic. The wheat and oat Gelds are com mencing to ripen and a good crop is almost assured. Two or three new reapers and binders are on the field ready to cut the immense crops, Manuel Trujillo, of this place, who went suddenly insane about four months ago, died at the Mora County jail, where he was confined. The unfortunate man could not be taken to the Insane Asylum for lack of room in that worthy institution. Mr.

Trujillo was a good citizen and well liked by all who knew him. It is reported that John F. Eobinson was killed in action at the battle of Santiago. He was one of the Bough Jlider3 who eulist6d from this county. Jack, (as be was called,) was a nephew of Mr.

J. S. Holman, of this place, one of the few old timers left. Jack was for many years in the cattle business, and was until be enlisted in the employ of the Bell Kanch outfit. His many cowboy friends will regret to hear of his unfortunate ending.

Jack was a good boy and proved he was made of the right stuff when he went to the front to fight for his country. Mr. Saul Harris, of Philadelphia, brother of Mrs. Simon Yorenberg, of Mora, arrived at the latter place last week. Mr.

Harris will enter the employ of M. Strousse Co. Mr. Alfred B.Smith, A. II.
