From Consul Fitz Hugh Iee's oral report to Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Olney on the situation in Cuba, it would seem that Spain is getting tired cf her job and only wants a good excuse to give it up, She does not want to release Cuba, nor stop lighting her voluntarily. nor at Cuba's request ; but wants the United States or some other government to interfere, so she can gracefully withdraw from the same. We hope that our govern ment will interfere before there is much more blood shed and atroci ty committed by the Spaniards It it is Spains wish, why not grant it at once? The short editorial on Mr. Br) an, which appears in Sunday's Ob server was a gem and portrays in the writer, that broadness of mind 111 1 l i 1 ana noeranty oi views wincli is found only in the breast of great men.

To-day the Democratic party of Lincoln county stands of put Saxon blood, freed from t lie taint of Populist Radicalism, on the eternal principles of Democracy, for what we believe to bd the lst financial policy for the people and not forth capitalist, bankers, and trusts.-.
