It is futile to say that America has no international right to intervene in Cuba. Every State has a right to decide for itself when its interests are seriously imperilled, and, if it gives fair warning, to exert its forces to put an end to a dangerous situation of affairs. Nobody can deny that Spain has had warning enough, ami though Americans may exaggerate the menace to their interests, it is for them to decide, provided they decide in sincerity, what their interests are. Cuba lies at the very door of the United States, its business is worked mainly with American capital, and the spectacle of its suf! ferings is almost as visible as if the island were part of the Union itself. Nor is it quite fair to say that in intervening on moral and humanitarian grounds America is introducing a new practice into international affairs. All religious wars have been based on the same principle, be it sufficient or insufficient, and it was only yesterday that all Europe was asked to destroy Turkey, and very nearly granted the petition, because the sovereign of Turkey had massacred fewer persons than have perished in misery from the misgoverment of Cuba. [London Economist ] Strap Sandals Oxfords—■*" HT T AL'U Mens' and Boys' • d. JLtUPinf FURNISHER, * PUNXSUTAWNEY, PA. It is only when the loss is greater than usual, that the damage is felt, and remedies are sought. Vet more than half of this destruction could be prevented if a knowledge of how to protect crops from their foes were general. It is to this line of work that the Zoologist intends to direct his efforts, offering to all who are interested, information how best to prevent these losses, or to check the foe when it has already appeared, In order to do this, and accomplish the most far-reaching results he desires anyone who finds his crops of any kind affected by any insect or other animal, to write him, sending samples of the injuries, and if possible, of the animal which causes the trouble. All such letters will be promptly answered with suggestions of the best ways to prevent farther damage, and if the trouble be serious a personal examination will be made. All such letters should be sent to the State Zoologist, Department of Agriculture, at Harrisburg. bulletins describing injurious and other animals, the work they do, and how to treat them will also be published, both in the newspapers and as pamphlets for distributing. It is hoped in this way to induce the people of the State to use the opportunities which have been prepared for them by the legislature in this line, and in the end, save many millions of dollars each year. This is a sum and it would seem impossible, if it were not that it has always occured, and a year without it has never been known. Dr. H. T. Fernald, who has recently been appointed Economic Zoologist to the Department of Agriculture of Pennsylvania, describes his duties as being the investigation of all kitids of animals which are injurious or beneficial to field and garden crops, fruit, and other agricultural interests of the State. That this is an important work is shown by the estimates prepared by competent persons at different times and in various parts of the United States. These estimates agree in placing the annual loss, due to the attacks of insects and other enemies of the farmer and fruit grower, at one-tenth of his entire crop. In other words, the farmer, in an ordinary year, pays a direct tax to Nature of one-tenth of all he produces, while in season when the pests are unusually abundant the loss m%y be as much as one-quarter. If we apply these facts to a few, only, of the crops of Pennsylvania we find that the estimated value of the Wheat, Oats, Barley, Hay, Corn, Potatoes and Tobacco produced in the State during 1896 was $80,749,080, while if losses by insect and other similiar causes had l>een prevented, it would have been nearly $90,000,000, showing that 011 these crops alone, the loss to the vState each year is nearly |io,- 000,000. The action of the American government is based upon the sublime principle of humanity. This is the bed-rock of Christianity, the solid fabric of civilization is builded upon this foundation, lathis issue we stand or fall. With this presentation we challenge the good-will of united Christendom, and invoke the blessing of the God of battles on what now seems the inevitable struggle. Of the outcome there can be no doubt. It means on this continent emancipation of Cuba from a blight that has kept that unhappy island in a stste of internecine warfare, with but short intervals for the half century gone and from which the mother country has been unable to redeem it. The Armenia at our gates must be blotted out and a new republic in the might and majesty of constitutional freedom arise, regenerated and disenthralled from the fetters of an effete foreign domination, to aid the greater republic in carrying out the designs of Providence on this continent for the betterment ot the race, and the upholding and conserving the rights ot the individual man. iPittMburg Catholic.J Wall Paper.

One of those good-natured, bat injudicious souls, whose minds are not quite equal to their bodies, was admitted to jail the other day. He seemed to be especially anxious to speak to Martin Fleming, the convicted murderer, whom he professed to know and had great friendship for. Through the grating of the cell he said, "Mart, old boy, if you've got to hang, ies' walk up and take your medicine like a little man ; they can't only hang you once."

While it is never wise to underestimate the strength of an enemy, there is no doubt that the prospects for Spain are singularly unfortunate. In startling contrast with the unanimous sentiment of loyalty that sweeps in one broad wave from the Atlantic to the Pacific in this country Spain is not only confronted by two revolutions at the moment when war with the most formidable nation in the world breaks out, but the throne is assailed by enemies so powerful that its overthrow is among the possibilities. Spain is rent into political factions. Loyalty in Spain is interpreted to mean personal advantage. Devotion to the government extends as far as the possibilities of private plunder goes.
