In the death OF General Garcia Cuba
loses q patriot whom the world may will
admire. He did much with almost mo-
thing with which to do it. He accomp-
lisbed q great deal against adverse cir
cumstances, and since tie war with
Spain his conduct has been exemplary,
notwithstanding false reports in referen-
ce to the position taken by him. just now
there is hardly 8 Cuban in sight who
can take his place in the government

From the Saint Louis kepublic.

The people are almost q unit in favor
of this project to unite the two oceans.
They waut the Government to build the
canal and control it. Under this con.
dition of public sentiment, it will be
detrimental to the political future oI
the party responsible for Congressional
legislation to disregard the popular will.
Complications and difficulties, woven
by selfish private and corporate interest:
should be brushed aside, and the Mic
aragua canal should b. pushed to com-
pletion as rapidly a. physical and inter
natio1al conditions to be overcome sill
permit.
