When Scoin suppresses the Cuban re-

herself with a war debt Of not less than
5000, 900, 900 on her hands and no means
of paying it except to squeeze it out of
the impoverished, unhappy island she has

eddy wish now that their beautiful island
had rebelled against Spain and declared
its Independence in 1910, when the other
Spanish American provinces did SO.
But Cuba remained loyal to Spain
through all the years from 1910 to 1929
and prided herself on it. The Spaniards
called her in consequence the Ever
Faithful Isle" AS a reward for her
fidelity, however, Spain began a system
attic course of taxation which almost
sapped the very lifeblood Of Cuba. This
oppression and injustice are what keeps
Cuba i'll q state of chronic disturbance,
which will never be quieted permanent

relaxcs her iron grip and governs justly.

Changes In the British Ministry.
When a British cabinet resigns and
the queen invites the head of the oppo-
site political party to form a new cabi-
net. it is the same as if i'll America the
governmental policy should suddenly
change from Democratic to Republican
or vice versa. The British are accus-
toned to hold mp their government to
Americans as being much more stable
than ours. 1t runs along firmly and
smoothly without the commissions of
such frequent general elections, they
say.
The truth is that the real government
of England changes much more often
than that of the United States does,
though the British do not make 30 much
fuss over the matter as we do. In the
past SO years the United States has had
however, involved a radical change of
policy from Democrat to Wing and from
Republican to Democrat or otherwise
only seven times in the years since 1874.
Going back half a century in British
politics, we find the Liberals have been
in power six times. The Conservatives
have been in power, counting the min
istry just formed, seven different times.
Against our seven changes Of govern
ment policy therefore the British, with
their SO called stable government, count
up 10.
When an American president. as
sometimes happens, finds himself by a
congressional election in the middle of
his term stranded high and dry without
any congress at his back, no can only
rub along the best he can till his term
Of office expires. If he were the SO called
sovereign of England, no matter what
his political views were, when his cab
met found that congress would not pass
the bills the administration desired, he
would be obliged to accept the resigna.
ton of his secretaries and form a cabi-
net of those who held opposing political
views. 1t will thus be seen that the
queen of England has less political
power than our president.
In one respect the queen of England
has, however, more power than the pres
ident. When parliament will no longer
respond to the British cabinet by voting
in accordance with its views. the prime
minister may advise the queen to dis
solve the parliament and order a new
election. which she does accordingly.
This tho American president cannot do,
although he undoubtedly wishes he
could sometimes.

HOW ABOUT IT BEFORE?

We see that Mr.. Reed-the
original Tom, Of mythical quo
rum fame, commonly known as
Gear Reed'-started the State
ment, which is now being passed
around by his. supporters and
the followers of his party gen
orally, that the drain upon the
gold in the U. S. Treasury was
caused by the Wilson tariff. Ii
this be true (Which, Of course ii
is not,) we should like to have
explained by the Gear" and
his ilk, why the drain upon the
Treasury gold began as far back
as 1891, in the food-time of Re
publican regime, the very year
that the odious Mckinley tariff
went iuto effect, and continued
with such voracity as to bank
rupt the Harrison administra-
ton?
Why do our people forget these
things SO soon and allow them
selves to be played upon as sim
pletons and be driven into ex-
pressions full of sound and
fury?
1t is a fact that the payments
Of gold from the Treasury in re
demption of U. S. notes during
1891 were greater than they had
been in any year since the first
after the resumption of specie
payments. In 1892 they were
four times greater than in 1891,
They doubled in 1884 and again
in 1895. In neither case was the
tariff a considerable factor, The
demand for gold was started by
the Sherman act of 1890, which
provided for the issue of Treas
ury notes in exchange for silver
bullion.
This addition to the oLliga-
tions of the United States was
recognized as leading inevitably
to the substitution of silver for
gold as the basis of the national
currency. 1t discredited at once
all the currency then OutStand-
ing, and started a run upon the
gold in the treasury which the
repeal of the Sherman act, three
years later, was too, late to stop.
The same result must have
followed if there had been no
change of administration, unless
the Republicans in Congress had
earlier perceived the danger of
monkeying with silver, and had
taken such measures for the re-
%storation of the public credit as
they failed to take when they
had the power, and are now APP
parently unwilling to support
lest the Democrats should get
some credit for the correction of
Republican laundering.

A Railroad Decision.

The Supreme court of Texas
recently made a decision which
is decidedly interesting to the
travelling public and which will
be surprising to most lawyers.
A Texas citizen who was a
passenger on a railroad train in
that State went to sleep before
he reached his station. He woke
just as the train was leaving the
station, jumped to the ground
and was injured. He sued for
damages and recovered. The
railroad carried the case to the
Supreme court and the finding Of
the court below was sustained.
The Supreme court held that a
railroad is responsible for a pas
senger's safety from the time he
gets on the a until he gets off;
that it is the duty Of the com pa
ny, through its employees, to no
tify passengers Of the approach
to each station, to give them am
pie time to get off and to provide
conveniences for their alight-
ing.
The New York E0eniug World
makes the following criticism,
which is both amusing and sensi-
BILE:
This decision places a heavy
burden of responsibility upon
the broad shoulders of the break
man. The proper handling of
sleeping passengers is a very
delicate matter. According to
the Texas court, the passenger
must be awakened in time to get
off at his destination, and, logic
ally, not before. But it takes
longer for some men to get wide
awake than for others, and to do
this work properly the brakeman
must be a mind reader and able
to tell exactly the number of
minutes that vii be required for
the operation. He must also
take into account the number of
bundles that each passenger has,
and compute the time necessary
to collect these. Great care must
be taken. too, that the passen-
gers destination is known, for
to wake up a man at Poughkeep-
sic who wants to get off at Sing
Sing would be a punishable Of
Tense.
The brakeman must also be an
elocutionist. His voice must be
steady and strong and his pro
nunciation perfect. He must
announce the names of the sta
tons SO distinctly that every
passenger will understand them.
Ii he announces them as some
brakemen do it were as well that
some town crier spoke the words.
He must be a Iinguist as well,
able to call out the stations in
different languages for the bene-
fit of the foreign passengers that
may be in the car. Under this
decision the brakeman becomes
one Of .he most important per-
sonages upon the ruilroad. and
the training school for these po-
sitions must include thorough
courses in mind reading, oratory
and linguistics.

SERIOUS PHASE.

AS the Norfolk Public LeGger
well says, the action of the di-
rectors of the National Bank of
New York, few days ago in re-
solving to ask the Clearing
House Association of that city to
authorize their opening gold &C
counts with such Of their GUS
toners as may desire them, is
the most serious phase that the
present disturbing financial
question has yet assumed.
It is, in fact, the initial step
toward the suspension Of specie
payment, and argues a lack Of
confidence on the part of banks
that the Government will be able
to maintain the parity between
gold and it's issues unless some
curative methods are quickly
adopted. Since the resumption
of specie payments in 1879 al
agreement has existed among the
members of the Clearing House
Association that all accounts
must be kept only in dollars
that is, that all money was to be
regarded alike-and if this is
now abandoned. the result will
be that gold will begin to be
boarded, and in a short while
will be at a premium.
The bank referred to is one of
the largest in New York, and of
course It's example, if allowed,
would soon be followed by others
of the metropolis and by those in
other parts of the country. What
this would mean those who are
familiar with the history Of SINH
lar crises know full well.
The situation, therefore, it
seems to us, demands some posi-
tive, definite action, and that,
too, quickly. Fortunately the
banks as a class do not favor the
plan proposed, but the posi-

The Tfcacherous Diamond Shoal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.

WAsHINGTON, Feb. 4.
IF treacherous Diamond shoal.
off the North Carolina coast,
ever displays a light house, it
will be Of the spiral type, or sim
liar to the spider-like structures
which / seen in the Chesa-
peake bay and along the far
Southern coasts. The erection
Of a light On the dreaded point
has been in contemplation for
years. 1t is regarded by mari
ners as the most dangerous point
on the American coast, but be-
cause Of the great distance from
shore, the terrific force Of the
seas aud winds. which seem to
prevail there the year round, the
feat has been considered as one
of the most difficult in light
house construction. An attempt
was made four years ago to build
a structure, but the undertaking
proved a failure. Last summer
an iron caisson was taken to the
point and borings made Of the
bottom. This skeleton work
still stands aud serves as a bea-
con in the day of the shoals.
Recently an engineer officer
visited the point and was graft
fed to see how we'll the beacon
had stood the pounding of the
waves. Plans are now being
prepared by the lighthouse board
for a structure which will be of
the spiral type, because of the
small target it will offer to wind
and sea. 1t is proposed to have
! all the quarters well above the
highest point waves are likely to
mount, while towering $50 feet
above the water will be the most
powerful light displayed on any
coast. Questions have been
raised regarding the probability
Of the iron legs being worked in
their foundation by the shifting
currents or the force of the wind
above. This will be considered
by the experts, and every pos
sible preventive taken to mini
mize danger from this direction.
1t is proposed now to begin the
great undertaking some time
this spring when the weather is
most favorable for work off Hat
teras. The estimated cost of the
light is upward of 81, 900, 900.
