1t is asserted by the most knowing
ones that collision exists between two
well-organized and powerful bodies of
men having for their purpose the set
ting I'D and control of a government
over the Cubans One party ITO this
arrangement are the Spanfards nCuba
who intend to remain there and be
come a potent influence in organizing
the new government. Acting in con-
cert with these are the pro-SpanlSh
Cubans who have prospered in the past
on the patronage and favors of the
Sn,aniSh government. The other party
are American spectators who have
aInassed fortunes by the successful
exploitation of different enterprises in
this country and who see in Cuba an
opportunity to get control of the avail
able franchises of that country upon
conditions which they themselves hope
to be able to prescribe These two
bodies of men, it is said, are now work
ing together and using all the machin-
,1s available to influence public opin-
ion in the United States against the
Cubans 1t is mainly through their
agency that the various reports are
prepared and circulated discrediting
the Cuhans and representing them as
a odt1frsty, revengefuI, half-civil-
ized, uneducated rabble, totally unfit
for self government. If they can in

1t is fact THAT the United States is
suddenly developing into the greatest
manufacturing and commercial nation
of the world as the greatest agricul-
tural nation which it has long been.
As manufa cturing nation we must
have markets and the world is rapidly
becoming our market, rs is evidenced
by the following statistics on the sub
ject given by the last issue of Brad
streets, which says:
"A very striking showing Illustrative
of the growth of the manufacturing
statistics of the United States is made
in some figures just compiled under
the direction of the present very alert
chief of the Bureau of Statistics of the
Treasury Department. The figures in
question compare the values of inn
ports and exports of iron and steel
respectively over Il period of nearly
two decades. The change of move
ment shown can only be fttingly char
acterized as phenomenal. In the fiscal
year ending in 1880, for example. the
imports of iron and steel We're valued
at $11, ,26G, 600 while the exports were
valued ait only S14. 4.716.524. In the fis-
cal year just ended, on the other hand
the imports fell in value to $12.615,913,
whereas the exports increased to $7O,-
367 ,527. To put the matter in another
FORM the exports of manufactures OF
iron and steel We're not far from FIVE
times as great in 1898 as in 1880 They
were more than double those in any
year prior to 1896 and % per cent
greater than in 1897. On the other
hand the imports of manufactures of
iron and steel We're in value bur Iiftle
over one-siXth of those i'll 1880. and
and were bnt one-fourth of those of
1883 and One-half those of 1896. Since
1880, in fact, American manufacturers
have taken possession OF five-siXths
of that portion of thehome market
which was held by foreign manufac-
turers of iron and steel, and have at
the same time increased their sales in
foreign markets 400 per cent

The fnwardness of the jobbery that
was perpetrated upon the people of
Arizona in the text book business last
month is beginning TO come to the sur
face. Not only were inferior books
adopted in several instances. books
that were not recommended by the
teachers who were permitted to exam
inc them, but they were put in at a
greater cost per copy to the people
than better books were offered at;
especially in arffhmetics. grammars
and writing books is this true. The
criticism for instance of the abOrted
system of writing books adopted by
the best teachers who are competent
those criticisms is 1.-The copies are of
no educational value; some are sense
less. silIy; some are ambiguous, some
in bad literary form, and the various
copies are not we'll graded in diff

value of the copies; now what have
authorities to say on the mechanical

system. The copies are engravings
and not real writing; the lines do not

teachers who have honestly expressed
themselves on those abortions that are

The Monroe doctrine as laid down by
President Monroe, and all of it. was
this, that 'fthe western hemisphere
shall no longer be considered as terri
tory open to colonial discovery and oc-
cupation by European powers" There
is nothing inconsistent with that doe
trine in our occupation of the Ha-
waiian islands, the Ladrones or the
Philippines; nothing that would be in
consistant with our territorial eXpan-
sion to any degree we may choose. 1t
has been assumed by those opposed ito
the commercial and material develop
ment of our country that the contrary
of the Monroe doctrine should be main
tained if we are to maintain the doc
tTine itself. Nothing could be more
delusive, more misleading. There was
and is no contrary to that doctrine
from an American standpoint; there
was never any contrary to that doc
trine designed in the political logic of
the great statesman whose name the
doctrine bears. Nor is it contained in
the logic of the growth of nations. If
it were the United States would prac-
tically have built Chinese wall about
her when she made the Monroe doc
trine Il part of her unwr1tten law and
