WHAT CUBANS WANT.
From the New York Sun.


Any attempt of our state department to
persuade the Cubans to accept at the
hands of Spain anything short of abso-
lutte political independence is fOredoomed
to miscarry, for even stronger reasons
than those which rendered futile a similar
effort on the part of the Cleveland ad-
ministratior. The Cubans are determined
to perish or to be free, and all that they
ask of us as friends of liberty is that we
shall recognize them as bclligerents,
thereby assuring to them the power of in
creasing their financial resources and of
placing of a fleet upon the ocean. After
nearly three years of warfare, they have
a moral right to ask Of us what we grant
ed to Chilli and Venezuela long before we
acknowledged the independence Of those
countries. The Cubans are fully alive
to the fact that Chill had no chance of
defending herself against the Spaniards,
much less of hberating Peru, until she
gained an OF portunity Of creating a navy.
That opportunity came to Chill under the
law of nations when the United States
and England recognized her as a bellig-
erent. 1t is for just this privilege that the
Cuban revolutionists now plead; moth
ing less, and for the moment nothing
more,

The action of the Citizens Union Of
New York in deciding to continue as
permanent city organization is herald
ed in some quarters as a wonderful
stroke for good government and a
great blow at bossism; but this view
Of the matter is obviously superficial
The Citizens Union cannot maintain
itself as a permanent organization
without adopting the same ideas of
discipline, the same responsiveness to
individual leadership, which it makes
the basis of its revolt from the Repub-
lican party; and the moment it be-
comes simply a rival machine, Repub-
naturally prefer the regular RepubIi-
can machine and Democrats in its
membership will go back to Tam
many.
1t is out of the question for a per-
manent organization to maintain itself
with any force in an American city
upon the principle that while state and
federal governments are fit objects of
partisan contention, municipal gov
ernments are not Citizens of the
average kind having in their make
up merely the ordinary manifestations
of human nature. will not be satisfied

Beware of p tails.

Certain facts are becoming more and
more conspicuous as the clamor Tor
currency reform gains in vcciferous-
ness.
First, the lCudest of the assailants
of our present excellent currency are
the Cleveland -worshipping free traders
who naturally abhor the Republican
policy of protection and want to fix
up some bogus excuse for the Wilson
birs disastrous failure. If by big
noise now they can stampede congress
into discrediting our greenback curren-
cy, they can hereafter argue that 1t
was the grecnbaCk instead of the VIII
son bill tina. threw down their great
idol Grover; and Republicans, by
completely in the greenback's retire
ment will he weakened in their power
Of denial.
Secondly, only a small percentage OF
tho real business men of the country
are ON record with objections against
the currency of today, every dollar of
which. whether paper or silver. Is
everywhere recognized as being fully
us good as gold.
Thirdly. while Republicans are will
ing to admit that something in the
way of additional legislation is desir-
able to facilitate the establishment Of
national banks in small communities
where not much more than $4,000 cap
ital can profitably be employed in bank
irr operations. IT simply is bold un-
truth which the Mugwumps offer when
they affirm that with adequate federal
revenues the greenbaCk has ever been
or is likely ever to be a source of dan
ger to the national credit.
Fourthly, the manufacture of false
issue of currency reform at this time,
when the country is just beginning to
cOnvalesce from an attack of Mug
wump legislation. is a menace to the
real interests of the country which
conservative public opinion should
sternly halt.
The Republican party in congress at
the approaching session will do we'll to
keep clear of Mugwump pitfalls.
1t is all very well to reopen the
subject of a new Anglo
treaty of arbitration but the surest
guarantee of peace with honor will
continue to be an enlarged and inn
proved navy.

NEED OF HOME MISSIONS,
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
A more wicked act than the lynching of
an innocent man it is difficult to imagine;
but wherever lynching takes the place of
legal procedure there is always the great
est danger that the innocent will suffer
instead of the guilty. AS long as such in
fernal practices prevail in this country it
seems a misdirccted energy for us to send
missionaries to other lands to teach their
people the advantages of a Christian civil
iZation. We need great deal more Chris
tian civilization ourselves.

Of having to follow them TO destination,

lowing will gradually drift beyond its
control The secret of success in every
movement appealing to large bodies OF
men is enthusiasm and discipline;
these cannot be encouraged in munici-
pal elections along the non-partisan
line while in state and national con-
tests the field is abandoned to the doc
trine of political partisanship.
No advocate of -partisanship in
municipal affairs has to our knowl-
edge yet unfolded a plan with plaus-
ible and promising details whereby the
machinery of party may be discarded
in state and federal elections in favor
of spontaneous, non-partisan popular
uprisings. In no liberal government in
the world is the party system absent.
That party lines may be more easily
relaxed in the government of minor
municipalities than in the government
of states and of the nation is con-
need of an absolute ignoring of all
party ties in the government of a
municipal empire like Greater New

Hawaii and Cuba.

con >he eve of the approaching ses-
sion, both congress and the executive
remarks tho Philadelphia Ledger
seem resolved to Consummate the in
lefensible Hawaiian scheme. The an
ncxat tiOn Of this mi-harbarous terri
tory with it's mixed and densely illit-
crate native and imported Oriental pop
ulation of a hundred thousand and
more, and its population of only a
couple of thousands of Americans, Will
mark radical departure from the wise
and safe policy Of our government,
carefully observed from it's foundation,
to avoid foreign entangling alliances
and territorial acquisitions. Having
made this bad beginning, no one can
confidently predict whore cur reaching
out for new territory will end. The
continental policy, which our wiseSt
and best statesmen have so sciulOusly
safeguGrded up to this time, Will. be
cast to the winds when the present ad-
ministration shall have perfected it's
purpose to annex this and probably
other far distant and widely separated
possessions. The plan is fruitful of
illimitable expenditures for fleets, ar
mics, Notifications and guns necessary
to the defence of the distant territories
we are likely to acquire in conformity
with this i@itlal departure from wise,
sound principles and policies.
Contrast with this narrow and queru-
lous uttcrance the broad view taken by
United States Judge Grosscun in a
speech delivered Wednesday evening
in Chicago before the Baptist congress.
Judge Grosscups immediate theme
was Cuba, but in the following words
he sounded the true American policy
concerning both Cuba and Hawaii:
Il am opposed" said he. "to the an
neyation of Cuba for one reason, be-
cause the PEOPLE of Cuba have not
yet proposed it. The situation is diff
ferent FROM that Of Hawaii. There the
dominating influence of the island is
the American, compact, cohesive, fully
tempered and tested in the crucible
of time. Annexation in Hawaii is u
policy spriuging from the body Of its
intelligent people, and worked out in a
time OF peace. Fully approved again
and again, after years of a calm sur
Vey, it represents the deliberate thought
ard purpose of those who by superior
nature and intelligence constitute the
governing classes of the island The
anneXation of Hawaii is the adoption
of a child arrived at mature age and
under no stress or restraint, aud with
out a protest from the world. Cuba,
on the other hand, has few AnClo~Sax-
ons and fewer Americans. There is
there 40 class in coctrol by virtue of
superior intelligence. There has been
no deliberation upOn annexation, and
there has been no free choice, tested
and approved through the changes and
Vcissitudes of time Under the strain
CT this awful conflict, she would come
to us, If she came at all, only as an es-
cape from her Spanish mother. We do
not know and cannot know the real
wish Of the Cuban people until al
least she has had time herself to know
her own heart"
Can there be any reasonable doubt
as to which of these Views comedies
with broad and liberal statesmanship ?
We think not.
