We need not envy the Southern States their railroad boom nor any feature of their industrial development We have only to act with an equal energy to achieve greater results in own land.

THE CAUSE OF CUBA.

n MEXICAN conservatism of speech and action l| has rarely been better exenpfied than in the manner with which the great majority of the people and their in Congress have borne themselves during the period that has followed the destruction of the Maine Although great ma Jorlty believed the destructive explosion was caused by Spanish treachery, and although the belief has been largely confirmed by each successive report from the scene of the disaster, the country whole has conducted itself with moderation and dignity With the exception of few sensational yellow jour nals and one or two irresponsible members of Con- eress there has been hardly single notable offender against the prevailing good sense and rn1ness of the people.
 1t seems, m tact as if the possibility of with Spain had steadied rather than excited the country The resolution of the people is too strong to require expression in big words and high-sounding phrases The discussions of the subject in Congress have been particularly moderate and wise Even less than usual has been said about Cuba in either House, and men of all parties waiting with confidence in the President to learn what course the nation will be called upon to take when the investigation has dis closed the cause of the disaster and the extent of Spain's responsibility is known.
 It requires no very discerning eye to perceive that this attitude of almost judicial impartialty on the part of the American people does not proceed from any indifference either to the loss of the Maine or to the cause of Cuban independence On the con- trary the sentiment in favor of speedy recognition o the belgerent rights of the patriots is stronger than ever, and along with it is an increasing con vction that the United States should take steps to put an end to the which for so long time has devastated the island and now threatens to totally de- stroy its civilization.
 The day of agitation for Cuban independence has about given way to the day of determined resolution that Cuba shall be free Congress will not force the hand of the President because Congress is we'll as- sured that he is animated by the spirit of genuine Amercanism and will at eright time and in the right way intervene to put end to the wrong and save this American island from complete ruin at the hands of nation that has been proven incapable of rul- ing it.
 Even the most conservative however, are agreed that the time for intervention is rapidly approaching The destruction of the Maine has hastened this con- clusion but did not form it. The sentiment existed long before, but had not reached the point of resou ton until now At present the we'll nigh unanimous conviction of the country is that the war in Cuba must be checked and that the sooner intervention made the better.
