Graduates Not Allowed to
Resign.

For the first time in many years
the Secretary of the Navy has in
terpoSed his veto upon the applica-
tion of a junior officer to leave the
naval service. In the present case,
three of the cadets at Annapolis,
George Weber Of Arkansas, HI. l..
Collins of Pennsylvania and P. l..
Pratt of Illinois, sought to resign.
They had completed four years
service At the academy, the last
years being devoted to the engi-
neering branches and desired to
leave to engage in private business.
Secretary Long, however, found
that the engineer corps was sadly
in need of officers, owing to the rapid
depletion OF the older engineers in
late years, and he decided that as
those young men had been educated
at the expense of the Government
they should render service in re-
turns. The cadets upon admission
to the academy are required to
pledge themselves to serve the
Government not less than eight
years, SO these young men now will
be obliged to take the usual two
years cruise. which rounds out the
Annapolis course, at the end of
which time they receive their com
missions as assistant engineers in
the navy and he regularly assigned
to duty.

An Unronstitutional Appropriatio.

The last legislature appropriated
$2, 400 for the payment Of teachers
at the Orphans Home, payable out
of the general school fund. When
the warrants for teachers salaries
were presented To Treasurer Wester-
field for payment out of this fund,
he refused to pay them on the
ground that the act appr"prlating
money from this fund was uncon-
stitutional. The teachers brought
suit in the Supreme Court to COM
pei the Treasurer to pay the war
rants. The Supreme Court render
ed decision Friday sustaining the
Treasurer in his refusal to pay the
warrants out of the general school
fund. The salaries will now he paid
out of another fund and everything
will be lovely with the teachers at
the Home. At the start Treasurer
Westerfeld was severely criticised
for his action, but u show that he
had no feeling in the matter he
generously offered to pay the costs
of the snit.

managers Of what might be called
the Cuban trust.
The advantage to the Spaniards
would be peace and the extinction
of some hundred millions of hope
less debt, for the creditors of Spain
would be glad to scale her obliga-
tions, and she could have a large
sum of money in hand instead of a
Cuba Of blood and loss on her
hands.
The gain to Cuba would lie gov
ernment by a corporation, limited,
instead of crown, absolute, and
there could he contract guarantee
ing civil liberty to the people on
United States models. There would
be money for roads and schools and
sanitary measures, and there would
be, as necessity OF internal all
ministration, such measure of self
government as would maintain or
der through a police force, with
American and Cuban volunteers to
deal with brigandage.
The municipal problems could be
dealt with by the municipalities
and adjustments made for the adj
ministration of justice and payment
of worthy pensioners. With the in
PRODUCTION of American energies
and the security of capital, made
plain by the visible presence of Sc
curity, Cuba would yield wealth
"beyond the dream of avarice. !"
The revenue in the days of reciproc-
ity with the United States was in
excess of $30,000,000 aud it would
raise far beyond that figure within
a few years of this magnificent bus
mess management.

a PLAN 30 BUY cURA.

a PLAN TO BUY CUBA.
If there is anything in the world
that the trusts and monied men do
not want, some disciple of the new
prosperity and restored confidence
will please point it out. The fol-
lowing dispatch shows how great a
power trusts are, and there is moth
ing that they will not scheme to
control:
WASHINGTON, June 21.-A story
is current that the sugar trust has
evolved or accepted an ambitious
suggestion that Cuba is substantial
ly for sale and might as well become
sugar plantation for gigantic
corporation, supported by the sym
pathy and interest of our country.
In other words, that we might have
a West India Company, as England
had, and a Hudson Bay Company,
each of which aided vastly in the
extention of the British Empire.
1t is said that the Spanish Minister
to the United States cabled recent
ly to Madrid reports of the disposi
tion Of our Government t. decline
to interfere by force and also to sup
port Cuban autonomy and that this
cable prevented the recall of Wey-
Ter when a change in the Spanish
Ministry was in the air, to send to
Cuba Campos, who closed the ten
years war. Cash in hand might do
the same job now by the same
means much cheaper than Spain
can keep 100000 soldiers in the
field. Col. j. J. McCook is the
gentleman credited with the imagi-
nation to conceive the capture of
Cuba with cash as u measure of
peace. This, as Colonel McCook
understands it, is merely a matter
of business. The idea runs this
way:
Spain has already charged to
Cuba debt of $400,00O,00O and
under Spanish dominion the island
can never yield revenue amount
ing to one half the interest. Cuba,
without post or town or ship, has
national debt and yet there are
many who think the credit of Cuba
should be as good if not better than
that of Spain.
Suppose there was a company
commanding money to take up the
whole Cuban debt, with the war
debt of such as charged to Cuba at
its market-say $4,000, ,O0O-and
$5O,000,00O for the Spanish rights
in Cuba and the Cuban rights in
the forests and mines and in set
Ting American and Cuban claims
against Spain, and the United
States wonld guarantee bonds to
the amonnt of $1OO,O00,000 at 3 per
cent and supervise and administer
the customs Of the ports Of Cuba for
the payment of the interest, the
Government holding the bonds as
security, would not liberty and
peace and prosperity for the island
be accomplished at the cost OF
$3,OO0,000 a year, taken out of the
Cuban custom houses?
Incidentally it would seem there
must be an immense profit to the
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1897-06-26
WOULDN'T YOUp

WOuluH you ike JO nave
home of your own where no land
lord dare enter?
Wouldn't you like to have all Of
the product Of your labor when you
work, instead Of being compelled to
divide up with some capitalist, as
you do now, when fortunate enough
to obtain his permission to work?
Wouldn't you like better food
and better clothing?
Wouldn't you like to hear good
music and good singing?
Wouldn't you like to have leisure
50 you can enjoy some of the good
things Of this life?
Wouldn't you like to know that
in old age you would be provided
for, and that You would not have to
worry about anything material?
There are many, many things
that you would like-and which
you ought to have that would add
greatly to your comfort and happi-
ness, yet you do not have them. Do
you know the reason why?
In the first place, yon don't try
to get them. You send men to your
legislatures not to legislate in your
favor, but to legislate in favor Of
those who, under the present sys-
tenn, may more easily rob you, and
do it 'legally."
In the second place, you don't
seem to realize that in the game of
politics you are used by the shrewd
politician as merely means to an
end. Each of the old parties play
horse with you. You get o few long
oats (promises) while they are
working you, and in the Fall you
are turned out to ''root, nog or die"
My friend, | want you to think
about these things. When you
know what you want go to work for
it, and not work, as you have in the
past, for something you don't want.
OF course, you believe that the
present system, with its murder
robberies, embellishments, suicides.
bribery, poverty, rags, prostitution,
hunger, starvation and landlordism
is the best system that can be or
ever was devised. You must like
this system, or you would howl for
revolution.
You believe that private owner
ship of the earth is right, and that
the land-grabber has perfect right
to collect from you every few days
portion of what you produce for
his permission for you to live on
the earth. If you didn't believe it
was right, you would not only howl
for change in our present land
system, but you would work for it.
You must know that our present
industrial system places premium
on crime by withholding from men
and women the right to live hon
estly. You must like it or you
would work your hardest to over
throw it.
You like to know that few days
sickness or involuntary idleness
brings you and yours face to face
with hunger, cold and destituti"n.
You must like it, or you woul
work for the complete overthrow of
the capitalist system that makes it
possible for one to be destitute in
the midst of plenty.-Rights of Man.
