The Cuban Army of Occupation.

The recommendation of the Cuban
evacuation commission that $4,000 SOL
diers be held in readiness for occupa-
tion service in Cuba is explained by
Adjutant General Corbin in this man
ner: "It must be borne in mind that
an army in time of peace is like insur-
ance. II is "A preparation for an encr-
gency. You cannot view conditions in
Cuba as you can in Ohio or Pennsyl-
have been accustomed to be ruled by
force. The officers there fear that with
these conditions and habits if troops
are not there trouble may occur"
AS matter of common sense lit is
always better to have "a surplus OF re-
sources than a deficit. 1t is arguci by
General Wade, the chairman of the.
evacuation commission, that for three
years in the neighborhood of Il GUAR
ter of a million Spaniards and Cubans
have been carrying arms in cuba,
100000 of whom will be left on the ISL.
and after the Spanish soldiers and
officials depart. The problem &C con-
mcnaces to public order into peaceful
citizens, habituated to industry and
thrift, not to speak of the compi-
eating circumstances of race hatrel, in
herted fueds and the inevitable fric-
tions growing out of recOnstru 'tion
iinrresses the military mind as being
so serious and so full of ominous pos
sibilities that great army to be kept
continually at hand as a reserve force
for use in a sudden emergency, is
viewed as a necessity, and probably
il Is. At all events, il will be true econ
oIny to have strength enough from the
beginning to leave no doubt among
the eVilly-dispOsed of our intention to
eLfCrce law, order and uniform respect
Os civic rights.
Yet ii is possible that the bad blood
engendered by Spain's last days in
CUpa has caused in American otliciai
circles an exaggerated view Of the 1i!i-
rulties confronting us in that islam /.
We cannot believe that the mass of
the Cuban people, after the misery and
priVations they have undergone dur
ing the last few years, will be quar-
rcisome or dangerous after the flag Of
Spain, which is the emblem of their
suffering, has been hauled down, nor
that the Spaniards remaining on the
island will be so undiplomatic and near-
sighted as to undertake to keep w
the old antagonisms. under which Gu.
ban retaliation would be inevitable
Possibly the picture is being ovcrdr4wjl
| for purpose.

Roosevelt's Rough Riding.

colonel Roosevelt is finding out that
his way is still somewhat rough hut he
does not finch. The "organization''
wants To name his choice for commits
sloner of public works, under whose
supervision the probing of the canal
frauds will come. 1t has picked out ex-
Collector Francis Hendricks, of Syra

to meet all of the governor-elect's re-
qurements. He is reported to have
said: II want a commissioner of pub
lie works who will put the knife into
dishonest canal contractors, and if tho
man select does not put the knife into
dishonest contractors, Republicans and
Democrats, ! will put the knife into
him"
For the reasons We have mentioned
Colonel Roosevelt does not appear I,
cnthuse over the suggestion of Mr.
Hendricks, and is casting about for an
engineer of high professional standing
and unimpeachable character who has
not been conspicuously active in polit!.
cal intrigueS ana manipulation. He has
offered the place successfully To num-
ber of men of this kind and they have
one by one declined, very likely for the
reason that it will he a thankless tasl

That North Scranton Pave.

In the armory, North Scranton, a
meeting will be held tonight which has
as one of It's objects the quickening of
public sentiment concerning the neces-
sity of paving North Main avenue and
Providence road. There is no differ
ence of opinion about the necessity %!
this improvement. Everybody is agreed
that a pave ought to be laid and the
obstacles in the past have all been with
reference TO the steps leading up to
the laying of the pave.
If tonights meeting shall result in
the adoption of a plan that will secure
the early laying of "A durable pave on
the thoroughfares in question the pro-
moters of it will have done a great
public service. The proposed improve
ment is of interest to the people of the
city generally. 1t is more than local
measure from the fact that North Main
avenue and Providence road constitute
one of the main arteries of the city.
