Mr.. Emmett C. Winston. Of Honolulu,
for whom Mr.. Stearns is the Virginia
agent. inquir.ng into the feasibility Of
introducing negro labor upon the Ha-

The letter was written In San Fran

f. now In the Goiden-Gate State. had
iust received advices from Honolulu that
Japanese and Chinese labor had been
henceforth debarred from Hawaii by
the government. This has left the land

prospect that soon they viii have to do
q little Of the labor Of life themselves.

of colonizing the epileptics.< and sug-
pested that the sexes should be sepa-
rated. the males being placed In one
institution and the females In another.
One essential reason for separating
epileptics from other insane was, ne
said. the fact that epileptics should DC
dieted. and IL would be impossible TO do
this when they are kept with other
insane.
The question of the cost OF colonizing

den of his paper was the necessity Tor
the segregation or the CHROME INSANE
from the acute insane. He also adj
vacated the placing Of epileptics In
almshouses. The members Of the board
took exceptions to his suggestions, ana
a rather heated argument ensued.
DIR. J. Allison Hodges. who entered the
room at this juncture. was asked 10
give his views on epilepsy. and he made
a most interesting talk. asserting II as
his posittye belief that epilepsy was an
incurable disease. He discoursed most
intellectually on the necessity for colo
nIzine epileptics, and expressed the hope
that this would be done. A desultory
sort OF discussion followed. after which
the commission adjourned, to meet at

A Crisis in Cuba.

Whether the apprehension of an
outbreak against the United States in
Havana be well founded or not, it is
reasonable to assume that a crisis in
the affairs of Spain in Cuba is near
at hand. The recall of Weyler is
confession of failure which threatens
the existence Of the Spanish Ministry,
and even imperils the monarchy.
Spainards of all classes aud political
creeds srs resolute in the endeavor to
retain Cuba if possible. The Re.
publicans would fight as hard for it
as the monarchists have been doing.
1t is this determination of the Span.
iards to cling at all hazards to this
last important vestige of their former
vast possessions on the American con.
tineut which makes the outlook for
the continuance of the Bourbon dy.
nasty dark.
1t is easy to understand, therefore,
the reason of the animosity of the
Spaniards to the United States. This
government has been performing its
duty to Spain in this Cuban REBEL.
ion earnestly and intelligently from
the first. yet it has been impossible to
head off sll the men and munitions
of war which left this country for the
Insurgents. If the United States had
as large a navy as England's it could
not police the waters between this
country and Cuba sufficiently to keep
all these out The Spaniards see that
all the aid which the Cubans have re-.
ceived has come from the United
States, but they fail to take into ac.
count that which the country has in.
tercepted, and which, if it had
reached its destination, would make
the tenure with which Spain holds
Cuba feebler than it already is.
An especial reason for the increas
ing tension between Spain and the
United States is the feeling that the
Mckinley administration will more
resolutely guard the rights of Amer.
lean citizens 10 Cuba than the Cleve.
land regime did. Consul General
Lee, or his successor if Lee retires,
will receive from home the prompt
and vigorous support which Cleveland
failed to give Lee. The Madrid au.
thorities know that the situation has
changed, and that their difficulties in
Cuba will increase from this time
onward. In fact they saw the danger
several months ago, or soon after the
election, and this inspired the desper.
ate attempts of Weyler to crush the
rebellion bofore March 4, or at least
to weaken and dscredit the insur.
gents. But his campaigns have been
failures, as the Spanish people see,
and as their government comedies by
recalling him. Thus the Cuban
question acquires new and greater
interest for the United States as we'll
as for Spsin.-&. Louis Globe. Demo.
