UBA IS BEAUTIFUL and valuable, and her people need relief and sympathy. Cuba is near enough to be sociable and good enough to be happy.

There has not been that reciprocal respect and association between us and these friendly neighbors that there should have been. There should be more quilting-bees and five-o'clock NO COWARDICE! HE PEOPLE have voted for free trade, and the Suz insists, against its own tariff convictions, that congress and the president shall give it to them as rapidly and radically as possible, That is honest and right. The voice of the majority must be respected, however unwise the minority may think it. The verdict against protection was emphatic, and the Democrats have the three chief branches of the government and may enact and enforce their will without check or hindrance. To falter or hedge or delay would be the rankest cowardice. Down with the custom- houses and up with the home taxes! WEALTH AS A MISFORTUNE. THE CAREER OF BLAINE is rec- ognized by the Elmira Gazette as encouragement to the boy born of rich parents, To be sure. The poor boy has had praise enough, and the self-made man can congratulate himself if he is that glorious person in spite of the wealth that obstructed his progress with the be- ginning of his life. Lincoln, Jackson. Johnson and Garfield were entitled to all they won, but the rich babe who becomes the great man must have his tribute too. Wealth is generally a delusion and a snare to the one who doesn’t earn it for himself, but not one of the poor boys ever went higher than Blaine. Let us give our sympathy to the rich boy. The poor one can take care of himself. FEBRUARY TWENTY-TWO. LL GREAT MEN are greater the longer they are dead. Time plays with their bones and leaves no atom of their dust; but history lifts their imagi- nary forms to the skies and makes them grow as the generations come and go. It is something to have an annual re- membrance, but the centennial one lights the stars anew and makes lurid the vault they occupy. There has been something too much of the Columbus glory, but Christopher will be fresh and inspiring a hundred years hence. Meanwhile from year to year we shall recall with renewed and increased pride and admiration our own particular George, to whose memory the continent gives obeisance and affection. It was a mighty good thing that he was born. THE BURNING OF THE CHERRY-TREE. MBS: WASHINGTON was a disciplinarian within her domestic sphere at Mount Vernon, and Mr. Washington rarely questioned her authority, however much he insisted on his own within the tented field. It was the habit of Mrs. Washington to arise at five o'clock in the morn- ing and get her hair out of its curl-papers by the light of a tallow candle. On these occasions she invariably remarked to the general, pausing at the last curl, “You will now get up and start the fires.” Thereupon Mr. Washington would say, with a growl, “I sha'n't do it,” and put his head under the bed-clothes. Then Mrs. Washington would say, in a cold, stern, metallic voice, “George!” and he would respond, with another growl, Call the orderly.” “But,” would be the obviously correct reply, “there isn’t any orderly, George. These are the blissful times of peace.” Always at this crisis Mr. Washington would sit up in bed and say, “ Very well. What we want is the piping period of war. Ho-hum! If there is no war and no orderly, by heaven! I'll get up and start the conflagrations myself.” Thus he unbent. comicbooks.com
