cal training and kindergarten" asked
Mayor Van Wyck, while making his
savage onslaught upon the New York
reform board of education because it
desires a larger appropriation for the
coming year. Mayor Van Wyck not
only objects to the things mentioned,
but also to the teaching of music of
cooking and OF sewing in the schools,
if his sneers and sarcasms may be so
interpreted. Now large portion of the
increased expenditure is necessitated be-
cause under Mayor Strong, the board
determined to make the school accom-
modations adequate to the demands of
the city. Hence new buildings are be-
ing erected and more teachers win be

ENeHlS sGSIll 10 pe moving IdSl as re-
CARDS Cuba. On the same day comes
the news that the Spanish fleet is to be
concentrated at Havana, and that a
commercial treaty between the United
States, Spain and Cuba is ready for sig
nature, upon terms very advantageous
for all concerned. The United States is
for the first time to be put in the most
favored nation,' class, and to be allowed
the same access to Spanish markets as
France, Germany and England now en-
joy The convention with Cuba is said
to contain wholly new schedule of rates,
which will give the Cubans the benefit
of practically free trade with the United
States and admit American capital for
the development of the resources of the
island. 1t will also guarantee to the
Cubans a free government, which under
the circumstances our government
could not afford TO see interfered with.
This convention is to be signed on the
part Of Cuba by the delegate of the
autonomous government Spains share
of the advantages consists in an honor
able peace and the ending of a dlsas-
trous war without the actual loss of her
most important colony.
The outline of the arrangement is too
vague for positive comment, but 1t is
possible to conceive of a compromise
that would both let Spain out of her
tight pinch and secure all the essentials
Of independence for Cuba, under what
would amount to guarantee from the
United States, and yet without stating
the situation with such rude bluntness
as to publicly humiliate the pride Of
Spain There are obvious obstacles to
such an arrangement. The chief NAV
well be the insurgents boisterous as
sertions that they will have actual in
dependence or nothing. To this it may
be answered that the insurgents at one
time seemed willing to accept as. a COM
promise an autonomous proposition If
the United States would guarantees its
tulfilment. AS for opposition in Spain.
it is not at all unlikely that, with the
war over and the colony saved, the peo-
pie might be pacified without laying too
much stress upon the details of settle
ment
Finally there is our own responsible
lily which would be far from small IT
might some time become embarrassing
1t would lead us at once into 'entang-
ling relations if not alliances with a.
European power. which are not entire
ly in accord with the wise foreign poll
cy laid down by Washington. It is.
however, not certain that we can eter-
nally hold aloof from the rest of the
world. The extension of our foreign
commerce. not less than the schemes of
our politicians, points to closer relations
With Europe, and these must inevitably
lead to complications and entangle-
ments, whether we will or not. This
is, however, no argument for rushing into
such predicaments or for assuming
needless responsibilities Or mourning
avoidable dangers.

enough to house them. There was not
a high school in the city, and this lack
was to be supplied But now comes
the new Tammany mayor and says that
the school system must be cut down In
other directions to compensate for the

Periodic rumors of the consolidation
of the Vanderbilt railroad interests are
to be expected as naturally as the
change of seasons. A while ago ii
was the West. Shore that was to be
merged in the New York Central Now
it is the Lake Shore, and the assertion
is absolute that the "deal' has been ar
ranged. The rise of both stocks to the
highest point touched for seven years, is
suggestive. That the West Shore, the
Michigan Central and Canada Southern
should be comprehended in the same
combination, is not unreasonable.

Brookline, the wealthiest town in the
country, will have other claims upon
fame if it can enforce its anti-expecto-
ration regulation, which forbids the
practice in public buildings on the side
walks and in the street cars. No other
place, so far as has been observed has
had the courage to attempt any order
SO sweeping as this. The law is a
dead letter in New York, and the best
that can be done in Boston is to give
offenders in street cars printed cards
bearing the regulation of the board of
health with the threatened fine of 500.
1t is difficult to regulate the habits of
grown-up children.

President McKinley's speech before
the Manufacturers Association in New
York was noteworthy for two reasons.
1t was the strongest utterance he mas
given since his inauguration, on the sub
jects of gold payments and currency re-
form. There seems to have been not
word about bimetallism, but there was
sufficiently specific declaration against
the Teller-Matthews resolution. Moth
ing should ever tempt us-nothing will
ever tempt us-to scale down the sacred
debt of the nation through a legal tech
nicality," are words that amount to a
promise to veto the Teller resolution,
should it ever .2each him. Inasmuch
as there is no possibility of it's passing
the house, the president might have
shirked all definition of his position in
this matter, in Difference to Chandler
and Wolcott, but happily he did not see
fit to do SO. These were his words as
to banking and currency reform:
1t will not suffice for citizens nova
days to say simply that they are in
favor of sound money. That is not
enough-the peoples purpose must be
given the vitality of public law. Bet
ter an honest effort with failure than
the avoiding so plain and commanding
a duty. An honest at
tempt will be the best proof of sincerity
of purpose. Discussion cannot hurt; it
will only help the cause. Let us have
full and free discussion. We are the last
to avoid or evade it. Intelligent
discussion will strengthen the indiffer-
ent and encourage the friends Of a sta
BILE system of finance. 8
For us to attempt nothing in the face
of the prevalent fallacies, and the con-
slant effort to spread them, is to lose
valuable ground already won, and prac-
tically to weaken the friends of sound
money for the battles of the future.
The financial plank of the St. Louis
platform is still as commanding upon
republicans ana those who served with
them in the last campaign, as on the
day it was adopted and promul-
gated
If the radical sound money men com
plain that this declaration is too vague,
it may be surmised that the silver men
will not make similar criticism The
spirit and intent is obvious enough.
There can be no mistake as to the pur-
pose of this advice. 1t means do some
thing, Incidentally, it may be noted
that the president did not claim impos-
sibilities for the tariff. 1t can encour-
age industries, he said, but it cannot
establish them. There were modera-
ton and sound sense in his remarks.
