state Of affairs where stable and es-
tablished form OF government would be
out Of the question. i believe that the
aim OF the educated Cubans, and the pa
triotic Cubans who are not interested In
the junta and the junta issue of bonds
are In favor of annexation to the United
States. am told that the resident Span
iards OF the island, about 100000 In num-
b r, infinitely prefer annexation to an in
dependent form Of government"
There are grave and well-founded
doubts Of the capacity Of the insurgents
to establish and maintain stable govern
ment, and II it becomes clear that they
cannot do so what will be loft for us to
do under our declared policy but to take
charge OF Cuba rselves?-Atlanta Jour

Naturally the old world powers are
glaring at us hungrily, They are the
would-be land -grabbers who haven't
enough daring to carry out their purpos-
es. We are the daring who hardly real
lie the value of the prize so easily gotten.
Needless to say, however. that those same
powers misunderstood us entirely.
Judging every one by themselves they
see In us an unrestralned nation enlarg-
ing our poss 'ssions with an avidity born
of power. They see in prospect the time
when we shall trespass upon European
soil to wrest their miserable little princi-
palities from them. They will never I'M
derstand America and its principles.
Considering this, 1t is no wonder then
that every European power England cX-
cepted) is arrayed against us. II not open
ly none the less earnestly. They are rea-
dy to send protest against the Philippines
conquest, Because OF purely selfish and
personal reasons. and not from motives
of international good.

TWO MODELS.

The condition of affairs in this country
and in Spain is in direct contradiction.
This country is model of perfect unity
In every act and measure pertaining to
this war, while Spain is an example OF
total disruption and misery.
The Spanish factions cannot agree,
while our factions cannot disagree when
it comes to defense against the enemy.
Spain's government is in danger from the
Weylerites, the Socialists, the Carlists;
our government was never more popular,
never more secure.
And in the end. must not this count
for great deal? Apart from superior
men, arms and wealth, would not the
mere fact, of Americas perfect and en-
thusiastic unity entltle her to a complete
victory over Spain? Any one who &C.
knowledges the power Of harmony will
recognize this.
When we consider that every other fac
tor Is in our favor, strength, patriotism
and unbounded credit, is 1t a surprising
fact that SPANS crown Is waiting for one
victory? SPANS decadence against our
healthy nationalism, her bankruptcy
against our wealth, her discussions
against our harmony--can she hope for
anything but defeat?-Pensacol News.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

The commission Of civil engineers APP
pointed by the United States government
early in the present year, to repeat the
survey of the Nicaragua canal route,
have now been nearly four months en-
gagged at the task, yet no intmation
comes of its early completion. The re-
port of former commissions had been I'M
satisfactory; it is to be hoped that this
will be final and conclusive. 1t is much
to be feared that the dilatory proceed
ings manifested in getting the construc-
ton of the canal fairly under way will
yet be the cause OF great injury to Amer
lean commercial interests.
1t is fact well known, though but lit
tie discussed that the French have not
given up the Panama canal scheme. They
are still working at it with no inconsider-
able vigor. 1t was announced recently
that the harbor at Colon, the Pacific ter
minus, had been completed. At this rate
France will have the two oceans united
long before the Nicaragua canal is fin
ished. And moreover six railroads across
the isthmus will be ready for use in few
years. thus lessening the value Of water
way. The present war difficulty with
Spain shows of what great use such ca
nal would be in naval movements, and it
is strange that the government should
hesitate to aid the enterprise when so
much is at stake,-South Fla. Sentinel.

CUBA'S FUTURE.

Though we have disavowcd any inten-
tion to annex Cuba or to establish pro-
tectorate over it. there are those who be-
lleve that our government will eventual
ly be compelled to take the island in or
der TO maintain stable government there
as we have engaged to do. This is the
view Of Senator Gallery of Louisiana.
who, in recent interview with cores
pendent of the New York World, said.
1.-The island of Cuba is as certain to be-
come part Of the Union as that the war
is going on. However much we may de-
clare on paper that our object is not con-
,quCs st, the facts and necessities of the
case will force Cuba into the Union, Be-
fore it becomes a state it will have to I'M
dergo long tutelage. -..
My opinion of old Gomez is that he is
nothing short Of an adyenturer and he
will sell ont any cause. think he Is a
chronic revolutionist. and is in these rev.
olutions for all they will pay. If the in
surgcnts were as numerous and effective
aud Gomez were the great commander
the jlngocs claim him to be, the United
States would have boG,rsaved the trouble
of freeing the island from the Spaniards,
especially when We pour arms into them
just as they want them, ia.
III 1t Is true, as has been stated, that
the Spanish army occupies only the
ground which they sit'upon. and that the
insurgents occupy the remainder of the
Island, as has also been alleged, they
should have starved the Spanish soldiers
into submission. especially when the I'm
tied States fleet is blockading all Cuban
ports Isl,

A Lead Pad en- the Horses Back Charged
with Electricity.

with Electricity.
New ORLEANS. Jan. 17.-Secretary Clark Of
tho Crescent City Jockey Club uncovered a cute
scheme to defraud to-day. He found In the pos.
session of two Texas Jockeys, Castro and Chinn,
q lead pad with six compartments In five of
these were batteries charged with electricity.
From each side of the pad projected copper
wire, which rested on each side of the horses
back. The whole thing was worked by pressing
q button hidden from sight just under the front
of the pad.
Tho Investigation which followed showed con-
clusively that tho pad had never been used here,
but from its appearance it had done good service
elsewhere. Castro. Chinn, and Owner L. X.
Rodgers. who were implicated, were fined $50
each. Three parties, suspected of being tho
ton. Summaries of the races:

YaIe's Reply to Cornell Received in Silence
and FILED Away.

YnIe'0 Reply to COrnsl Received In silence
and Filled Away.
ITHACA, Jan. 1.-THE Cornell Athletic Coun-
Gil held a meeting tonight. Tho management
announced q net balance for the season of
$4,000. or this amount 81 900 was reserved
for next season. $500 voted for improvements to
Percy Field. and $500 for improvements to the
Cornell boathouse. The balance went into the
general athletic fund.
The boating situation was not long discussed.
""e answer of Yale TO C~ornell's proposition was
&. 4 by Capt. Colson and received in a silence
that was ruinous for any further negotiations
between Cornell and Yale In any branch of
athletics, the council rejecting tho student
sentiment.
The Yale communication was duly filed and
tho lcaptain was instructed to proceed with the
negotiations with Harvard for the Cornell-Har-
ward race and with Pennsylvania and Column
bia. No mention was made of Yale relative to
the negotiations with these universities, and I'M
less Harvard extends her kindly offices volun-
tarily and tries to patch up the Cornell. Yale
controversy, the negotiations between the two
latter may well be termed a closed book.
IL seemed to be the sentiment of the council
that IL Harvard insisted very hard Cornell
should row the Crimson at New London and
arrange to have the Cornell.C olumbia Pennsyl-
vania race rowed there also and test the course.
This. il done. will be entirely in Difference TO
Harvard and not with the idea of any possible
future negotiations with Yale. No answer has
been received from any of tho universities rela-
tive to CornelPs proposal for o rowing associa-
tion.
