From the Pittsburg Dispatch
To the Cuban question the president de-
votes more space than to any other single
topic. His review of the history Of the
struggle and of the policy which he be-
lievos the United States should adopt is
exhaustive Concerning that policy it
may he the best that can now be done
The past has afforded ample ground for
radical action by the United States. We
regard it as a blot upon both the Cleve-
land and Mckinley administrations that
neither Of them responded to the de-
mands Of outraged humanity and liberty,
so close to our shores. But we concede
that after the United States, on account
of that ill-timed conservatism, has re-
mainCd idle in the presence of the saw
agcry of CanOvas and Weyler, it cannot
well refuse a trial to the more humane
and liberal professions of Sagasta and
BlanCo. We can hardly profess the coI-
tidenCc that the president shows in q
scheme of autonomy that has no real eX-
istcnCe until enacted by the Cortes, or
in paCiiiCation that Is so far wholly Ill
the future But inasmuch as the United
States did not take the action when it
was justified, it is compelled in logic to
wait the proof whether the pending re-
forms will be genuine.

The Tribune These Days.

We feel warranted in calling the pub
lies attention to the superiority of The
Tribune these days over the other local
journals that enter into competition
With it. The twelve page issue of yes
terday, for example gave in full the
currency plan which is the fruit of
nine months study on the part of the
administration and eminent financieTs
generally, and which SENS destined to
become a dominant issue in the ma
tional politics of the near future. 1t
also presented an exhaustive review OF
the history and purposes of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, now the
largest and most ably managed labo!
organization in America. Both OF
these features were unique in The
Tribune, which published moreover all
the news of the day, local, state, ma
tional and foreign.
BY reason of largely increased de-
mands on our advertising space we eX-
pect during the busy season to issue a
number Of papers of more than the or
dnary size, This will be done in order
that every advantage may be given 60
our advertising patrons without cur

vice which Is justly due to our rapidly
increasing number of readers. With

Full two years ago property Of Ameri-

dred thousand dollars was destroyed by
a mob at Marash, in Aslatic Turkey, and
the missionaries themselves were forced
to fee for their lives. The outrage
caused intense Indignation in this couA-

key be called instantly and sharply to ac-
count This, however, was not done. In
stead of making the matter the occasion

The Philadelphia Ledger concludes
with these words a frantic protest
against Hawaiian annexation: jim
goism may delight in the thought Of
the addition to our territory of a part
ly savage, partly civilized, leprous col
uny far away i'm the Pacific, but it is
matter to make the judicious grieve.
The project should be stoutly resisted,
not only i'm congress but in the col
umns of the press, and the advocates
of this flaGrant piece of jobbery should
be made to realize that their constitu-
ents are opposed to this measure, which
is so repugnant to the American idea
of attending to our own affairs and
carefully refraining from entanglng
alliances"
1t is an ancient trick, when argu
ments run low, to resort to the calling
of names. Hence the Hawaiian treaty,
to the Mugwump mind is a "fiagrant
piece of jobbery." 1t might be said,
also, that there is jObbery in the oppO-
sition to it: for it is we'll known that
the Sugar trust is against it to a man.
But the main point in the whole mat
ter is that the constituents of the pres
ent congress are not opposed to this
measure" but on the contrary favor
it by an overwhelming majority. If
this makes the "judiCious grieVe," they
will simply have to go on grieving un-
til such time as they 0an offer intelli-
gent and truthful arguments sufficient
to make a change in public opinion.
