MOQUIS IN PLASTER,
Casts of Pueblo People for the Fielt
 Columbian Museum.

The Field Columbian museum of Chicago is to have the only series of authentic casts of pueblo people in ex- istence. There are a few casts made from negroes and pictures at Wash ington and in European museums, as well as a very few authe ntic cas.s of this strange people from life. The casts that are to be set up ill the Field museum were made last month under the direction of George A. Dorsey, curator of the museum, and by F. B. Melville, the sculptor
 These men have made their trip to the pueblo village of Oraibi, in west ern mesas of Arizona, and against many orders have brought away casts and properties for making the most remarkable display of pueblos The figures include a weaver, two women grinding corn, bread maker, potte-, boomerang thrower, snake dance fig ures, a bride, and two Kafchina fig ures. The men, women and children from whom the casts were made in almost every case sold the c othes which they wore to the scientists, and the figures will be garbed in these when they are ready for exhibition. Dorsey told the story of his trip to- day. He said:
 Melville and I left Chicago, De- cember 12, for Winslow, AriZ. This is the closest that the Santa Fe could take us to Oraibi, but still we had more than a hundred miles to cover. We were bound to the Moqui reserva- tion, which contains ssven villages of pueblos. Oraibi village, to which we went, is the largest and least known of all the Moqui pueblos. It is the most primitive, high grade community on the American continent Children of both sexes play naked in the stree S until 12 or 13 years of age. The women do not wear a bit Of clothing which is not made in the colony, and the men are dressed only in a breech-clc ui of calico. It is entirely an indepen- dent and self sustaining commulity Should every other part of the earth with the exception Of the villages and farms at the base of the mesa be wiped out, the Moqui would still live as he has lived for centuries back"

FORCE OR SILENCE.

There is no doubt that the Spanish government would gladly turn Cuba loose now if it could do so without provoking a revolution at home that might endanger the stability, even. Of the present royal house. It is more than likely, however, that the news paper correspondents are romancing when they suggest that a movement is on foot, to which Spain is a party, to have an American protectorate de- clared over Cuba.
 protectorate would require, first, the independence of the island, and then the request from the island au- thority that the United States should assume the relation of a protecting power, involving a guaranty of protec- tion of the dependent state against in- vasioa and assisting directly in the managemen of the foreign affairs or diplomacy of the weaker government An American protectorate over an in- dependent Cuban republic may be one of the accomplished facts of the near future, but never through the solici- tatien nor the voluntary consent of Spain. The proud and ignorant dons may be compelled to let Cuba go and recognize the independence of the is- land; even now they may be con- templating something of the kind ss their resources are exhausted, but in proportion as the United States hand is seen or mentioned in furtherance of such a policy, in that proportion will the Spanish masses become en- ragged and rebellious.
 The Sagasta cabinet knows this feeling in Spain thoroughly and dreads it. It may be the quickest way at last to secure freedom from Spanish rule for Cuba, if the American govern ment will remain absolutely silent in the premises for a few months, in the absence of any purpose to interfere forcibly. Either we must recognize and assist the insurgents, or say noth- ing and allow the Spaniards to get out of the back door as quietly and gracefully as possible.

With Arizona warrants selling at par, as the result largely of the dec:s- ion of Chief Justice Street, denying the application for an injunction in the Yavapai bond case, the Gazette's prattle about fraudulent bonds is es- pecially silly.
