The Stars interview with Mr.. Charles NJ.
Pepper on the subject of the appearance
and conduct of the Cubans at Santiago is
timely publication. 1t will command re-
spect because Mr.. Pepper is recognized rs
a man Of good judgment and conservative
statement and knows whereof he speaks.
He was present on the scene, and gives the
results of his personal observations. More
over. he had seen the Cubans in camp and
in action before the United States became
a party to the conflict, and therefore was
the better prepared to pass upon them
when they undertook work as active allies
OF this government.
Mr.. Pepper supports the previously eX-
pressed views of The Star, and supports
them well. In admitting the unkempt APP
pearanee of the Cubans he accounts for it,
and shows that fighters they had 10
training which had fitted them TO execute
the commissions of United States regulars.
He does not attempt to fix their military
status. The official reports of General
Shafter and subordinates, he does net
doubt, will do the Cubans justice.
This confidence seems to be well placed.

on their bearing in the engagements, and
General Lawton has borne like testimony.
These expressions are not without some
small claims to respect. The Cubans may
at least take comfort from them.
The efforts to write the Cubans down
have not been altogether happy. They have
too repeatedly Clashed with facts ar.i fair
play The seamy and suspicious side has
too frequently appeared. For an instance.
in one report printed today from the front
the old picture is again held up to view, of
the sable sneak and glutton. Sinking fight
and work. and concerned only abou- grub
and security. In another report, from
Guantanamo bay. appears this statement:
''AlI the Cuban troops at Camp McCalla
were transferred this morning to Caimln-
era in the Samoset. They will camp there,
awaiting orders. They rather expect TO go
to Santiago.
The parting between the United States
marines and their Cuban allies was az
tended with quite Il ceremony. A guard
was drawn up and the Cubans shouted
Viva AmericanOS.' Viva Cuba L.bra,' and
Viva McCalla.' 1t is generally conceded
that they have been of great service To the
marines"
The case today then stands thus: Cen

Latin and ANGLO Saxon.

How little the Latin understands the
Anglo Saxon has twice appeared within the
past few months.
When the preparations for war first be-
gan, Spain had hopes that the south would
take no part in the assertion of a national
policy respecting Cuba She saw an ex-
federal soldier i'll the White House and the
republican party in power, and she jumped
to the conclusion that that would mean at
least southern Indifference to a war to be
conducted under such auspices. One of her
diplomats, in an interview in Vienna. went
so far as to suggest that the old confeder-
ate element might even seize the occasion
to renew its struggle and break UP the
Union. When war was declared the s1uth's
response was quite as hearty as the nortn's.
and one of the first men to land on Cuban
soil for fighting purposes was General
Wheeler, of ex-confederate fame
When Europe conceived the idea of form
ing a concert against the United States and
debating terms as to Cuba. France and
Spain aid not doubt that England would
Join. 1t seemed an opportunity pat to hand
for England to get even with the United
States with respect not only to the Ven
ezuelan affair, but other affairs. England
was approached and not only did not .oin
but took an attitude so friendly to this
country that the European powers dropped
Cuba like hot potato. They saw that if
England and the United States were forced
into concert Of action any opposition Euro
pean concert would fare very badly. Re

1t is not to be conceived that the United
States will permit Spain, in the final peace
adjustments, to throw the burden of the
debt contracted in crushing Cuban aspira-
lions for liberty upon either the new Cuban
government upon the United States
Spain will doubtless strongly urge that the
United States, by it's act of intervention
has deprived her of the means of meeting
the Cuban debt, based as it is in the Span
ish mind upon Cuba itself and heretofore
met out Of Cuban revenues. Cuba revolted
from the Spanish oppressio:Is and sought
freedom by insurrection. One of the spe-
citc items of complaint was Spain's prac-
t1ce of squeezing every possible dollar of
revenue out of the colony without granting
II in return from this rich fund an ade-
Quate allowance for internal improvements
or insular betterments of any sort. When
the Islanders revolted in the sixties and be-
gan the ten years war this was a promi-
nent feature of the bill OF complaints.
Spain was then fought to d standstin and
forced to grant what she was pleased to
call concessions TO the colony the terms of
which We're never carried into effect and
became standing source of grievance.
The burden Of that war, which at least
should have been jointly assumed by both
sides TO a drawn controversy, was saddled
in its entirety upon the island, adding to
its miseries and giving Spain an additional
excuse for not expanding a proper sum on
permanent Improvements, upon the install
lation of modern advantages and upon
methods of education and enlightenment.
The debt has increased, not because of
the fault of the Cubans, save the fault of
a desire for liberty, but solely because of
SPANS misgovernment and cruelty and
treachery- From every point of view but
that of SPANS selhshness and rapacity the
debt belongs TO her exclusively and it's as
sumption by Cuba as part of the price of
freedom, already heavily paid for in blood
and wealth and suffering, is not TO be JUS
titled on any score.

name regularly to irresponsible promoters
He loses his market value IL he becomes
connected in this manner with too many
failures. His name no longer draws the
flies to the sticking paper. So he must
watch his employers and avoid too obvious
frauds. What else is there for the average
British noble whose chief endowment is a
title and a mortgaged estate? His social
responsibilities are heavy, his family ex-
travagant. He cannot in conscience go into
trade. nor can he spare time for profession
al studies and pursuits. He must devise
business" connections suitable to his rank

profitable habit of promoting promoters"
1t Is the logical result of a bad system.

The Price-Current of the Peerare

Mr.. Ernest Terah Hooley, the bankrupt
London promoter" has shed new light
upon the price-current of noble influence
and his disclosures in connection with his
financial troubles will doubtless cause a
mild sensation in the British capital. Not
that London is ever surprised to find that
its noblemen are on the market Their
average impecuniosity renders 1t necessary
that they find cash consideration for the
favors which their titles and positions en-
able them to bestow. But it is with the
range of prices that London society will be
most deeply concerned. Introductions of
aspiring promoters to complacent lords and
dukes and earls seem to average 100000

The News Should Not he Withheld.
From the New York Evening Post

Complaint is made by some of our
evening contemporaries of a disposition
by the departments at Washington to
hold back news in order that the morn
ing newspapers may have it first. This
seems to have been done yesterday by
the Navy Department with the Sampson
report, for that was ready for publica-
ton early in the day; and possibly also
by the State Department with the formal
application of Spain for the opening of
peace negotiations. 1t certainly happens
very often that the most important news
of the day comes to hand just too late
for the regular editions of the evening pa
pers, and it is only natural that every
repetition of this annoying occurrence
should excite suspicion to it's cause.
There is only one just rule to follow, just
both to the newspapers and to the public
and that is to give out the news at the
earliest possible moment, day or night.
The public is entitled in time of great
interest and anxiety, like the present, to
nave all proper information about the do
ings of the army and navy without 'un-
necessary delay and without regard as to
which set of newspa pers, morning or even
ing, gets 1t first.

as far as it is needed and is ready, to the
temporary clerical force occupied with the
work connected with the war loan Further
reason for the explanation appears in the
fact that the people of Washington would
greatly prefer to observe the sign of the
city post Office displayed over, on or in the
structure than to gaze upon the somewh I
lmpertnen symbol of this private corpora
tion that is presumably enjoying the priv
ilege OF contract with the government
and valuable bit of advertising space in
addition.

1t is surely interesting to observe. as we
are all observing today, the large markings
of history. Half a dozen considerable re-
suits have already flown from the war be-
tween the United States and Spain. They
are the following:
1. Spain has lost all her possessions in
the western hemisphere, and will probably
lose all of her outside possessions
2. The war has thoroughly DESTROYED any
sectionalism that had survived as between
north and south.
3. The view of the United States has been
withdrawn forever from merely local or
parish politics. The day of a necessary
widened or worfd-view has arrived.
4. The United States now denotes colo
nial. or imperial. power. Like England and
France, she is now the possessor of colo
MES.
5. The war has been the incidental means
of creating strong bond of friendliness.
and a sense of mutually of interests. as
between the United States and Great Brit
ain.
6. The destruction of two Spanish fleets
and the capture of Santiago have resulted
in an enormous increase In respect for the
power of the United States on the part of
the nations of continental Europe

toward greater usefulness and wider OPP
portunities and enjoyment of the great
blessings of self-government upon the wide
plane of the American system, which form
ed the basis of the Hawaiian organization
when the monarchy was overthrown. To
Hawaii this step is into new era of pros
perity. tranquility and happiness. The
Coptic's flags were thus a signal of the
gladdest news that has ever been borne
across the sea to the faraway group.
Admiral Miller sailed yesterday from San
Francisco in the Philadelphia to represent
this government on the occasion of the for
NAL raising of the American flag that will
mark the act of annexation. He will ar
rive in about six or seven days, but 1t Is
not certain that all will be ready for the
ceremony when he reaches Honolulu, for 1t
may be that the authorities there will have
decided that 1t will be necessary for the
Hawaiian legislature to ratify the New
lands resolution which was passed by Con-
gress in lieu of the treaty already ratified
by Hawaii This step may take little
time. 1t is reported from Honolulu that
the flag to be used on the official occasion
will be the same that was hauled down by
orders of Paramount Commissioner Blounr
in pursuance of the policy of infamy."
This flag was sold at auction to Lieutenant
Lucien fourg of the navy. an ardent an
rexationist. and by him given to former
Minister Thurston, who has now carried 1t
lack to Honolulu to serve in a further
ceremony more in keeping with the spirit
and traditions of Americanism than that
with which it was connected in 1898. Since
that date. however, one new state has been
added to the American Union, one new
star given to the blue field of Old Glory.
Some thoughtful citizen of the United
States in Hawaii will doubtless take care
that the banner hoisted by Admiral Miller
will be in every respect the official emblem
of the new nationality that is TO guard the
islands and to guide them to the fullness
of modern civilization

Porto Rico's Future.
From the Indianapolis News.

We cannot honorably hold Cuba, unless
indeed, necessity should compel us to do
so. Possession of the Philippines would in
volve US in many complications from which
we are now free and which, we believe our
people would be glad to avoid.
But We are under no pledge in regard to
Porto Rico. The island is near at hand
and entirely within the sphere of American
influence. 1t will be comparatively easy
for this government to administer its at
fairs. And the island will prove a valua-
bic acquisition. No foreign power can in
terpose any plausible objection to our hold
ing it, for there is no European question in
VOWED. The Selling of Porto Rico is eguiva-
lent to saying that we will not hold Cuba ::
that we are uncertain about the Philippines.
and that, therefore. we shall absorb the
nearest Spanish territory which we can
take without violating our pledge.
