The most evident effect Of the tree-trade
schedules of the present tariff has been
the increase in our imports. When ;he
tariff law was under discussion the advo-
Gates OF the bin freely admitted that, in
order to supply sufficient revenue an In
crease In imports would be necessary.
They Claimed that we would pay for
our increased imports with increased ex,
ports. Facts have not justified their as
sumption. The German bill closed our
manufactures, paraiyzed our industries.
and tremendously reduced the volume Of
our production. Instead of paying for
our imports with our export products we
are paying for them with gold.

cuRA,s CONSTITUTION.

Elsht months of fighting have brought
the people of Cuba to point where they
,lave felt justified in adopting a constl-
tution It provides for government
which is evidently only provisional and
Temporary, but wCIlch rs calculated to pre-
pare the way for something still more
democratic and permanent. It's terms are
Gear and business like, and there Is an
apparent calm assumption OF power In Its
terms which can hardly fall to be reas-
sIrlng to tine people OF the new state,

successful and independence once assured,
Gihere vii. doubtless be notifications, al

It Is obviously the part of wisdom TO
keep the relns OF government within n
compact and united ministry,
The pronunciation Of the constitution is
significant OF an undampened courage ana
OF vigorous determination. II viii nat
urally hasten the conclusion Of the war,
for Spain will find qher difficulties consid-
cratey enhanced by the existence OF a well
organized government, based upon The
principles for which the Cubans are flght-
ing, and well adapted to the present con-
ditlons II viii also prove the last ex-
trerne hest OF the quality of the cubans'
spirit. The chief requisite OF victory now
WIZ be absolute loyalty to the new gov
ednment and continued unanlmity OF pur~
pose. Local jealomsles and fcuds, which
are the Disturbing elements In AID Span

poned untn freedom Is aSsured. That
done, tho people OF Cuba can occupy
themselves with the series OF snail rcvo,
lutions through which our Central ANA
South American neighbour adj seem i'm,
pecled to work out their evolution.
The cialm on the part OF the Spanish
naithOrties that the cubans are not yet

proved by the careful terms OF This con-
stitutlon. evtn " II were not In any case
