ONE of the most serious features Of
the administration of Cuba and Porto
Rico is reforming the almost incurable
corruption of the tax system, especially
at the custom houses. Corruption has
been 80 thoroughly bred in the bones of
everyone in those islands by four CEN
turtles of official pillage and extortion
that it seems it will be work of supreme
difficulty to accustom them to the rigid
honesty and accuracy Of American Off
cial methods. 1t is believed that Wey-
Ter accumulated not less than 81, 5000
during the few years that he was Cap
tain-General. Of course, when the
Captain-General stole, everybody under
him stole in proportion to his rank. The
first step will have to be to put Ameri-
cans in charge of all the custom-houses
and similar places, but they will have a
severe struggle with their underlings to
teach them the new ways.

WHILE a number of the civilian ap-
pointments to staff positions were open
to criticism, since the appointees had
nothing to recommend them except that
their fathers had been more or less dis
tinguished, yet they are not liable to
any of the blame which has been be-
slowed for whatever blunders or incom-
potency have come to the surface. As
was anticipated by those who knew them
best, they have done nothing more than
wear their uniforms and draw their pay.
They have been negatively good. The
blunders are all at the doors of Regular
Army officials

THE Journal de 81. Petersburg,
Russia, is very much exercised about
the Gloss of prestige of the white man in
the East" on account of the defeat OF
the Spaniards. 1t fears that the dis
aster is so great that the United States
will not be able to cope with it, and that
the assistance of a combination Of Eu-
ropean powers will be required. IT
rather seems to US that the prestige OF
the white man" did not suffer materially
at the hands Of the 10th Pa, LIST Cal.
and LIST Colo. in the midst of that terri
BILE monsoon. and that the yellow men
who saw them fight received some very
valuable information as to the character
of the new masters of the archipelago.

The adventures Of ST Klegg and his tall
friend, Shorty, both Of the 20Oth Ind, were
so numerous and so interesting during their
service in the civil war that it will take the
author a long while to relate them, and the
sketches will appear in many issues. His
friends have seen their graduation from raw
recruits to veterans, and have followed them
in their campaigns to Murfreesboro', after the
battle of Stone River, and there they have
been quartered for the Winter. They are
now on the Tullahoma campaign, moving
towards Shelbyville.

PERSONAL.

CorpI John Watson Mank, who shot
and killed Lieut-Gcn. A. P. Hill, OF the
rebel army, in the final operations around
Petersburg. died last week near Cumber-
land, Md, where no has lived since the
war, and was a prominent and much re-
spected citizen and q leader in the
Methodist Church. He did not know at
the time that It was Gen. Hill that he
killed, and fred at him to prevent his own
capture.
The National tribune., 1898-08-25

ASSISTANT SECRETARY DAVIS has
turned down Commissioner Evans very
decisvely in his attempt to withhold
pensions from veterans residing in
foreign countries This is another one
# the efforts of the Commissioner to
make laws, instead of executing those
which Congress has made for him.
These foreign pensioners are just as
much entitled to their pensions as those
residing in the United States. They
rendered their duty to the Government,
and the Government owes them their
pensions. The fact of residence has moth
ing to do with the case, AS matter-of-
fact, most of themsiaresactual citizens of
the United States I,wbo are more or less
temporarily absent from the country.
Some of them areo- engaged in business,
some have gone for their health, some to
receive benefits of treatment or climate
that they could not get at home. All
this is no business Of the Commissio ner's.
His business is simply to find out who
are entitled to pensions, and pay it to
them. He ought to attend to that, in
stead of trying to make Congress of
himself, and enact new laws governing
pensions.
The National tribune., 1898-08-25
THE PEACE COMMISSION.

The President has not made much
more progress in ibis selection of Peace
Commissioners. Senator Allison has
positively declined, and SO has Senator
German. The latter was influenced by
the uncertainty as to the Democratic
policy. Senator Mills, of Texas, is
under consideration His ideas as to
Imperialism seem all right, whatever
may be thought of his tariff views The
Democratic Convention of Texas turned
down Representative Bailey's anti-ex-
pansion resolution, but rather pronounced
against extensive holdings in the Philip
pines. Senator Mills, therefore, may
think that his political future may not
be endangered by service on the Com
mission. Ex-Gov. McCreary, of Ken
tucky,-a Democrats also being con-
sidered. He was for long time a
member of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee of the House, and is very we'll
equipped for the place. He is an ardent
Imperialist.
Justice White, of Louisiana and the
Supreme Court, is also being considered
as one of the Democratic members. He
is sound on the main question, very
able man, and thoroughly familiar with
the French language.
The National tribune., 1898-08-25

IT looks probable that the officials
and others in Cuba will for the present
be required to take an oath of sim pile
remuneration of Spanish authority. In
Porto Rico they will have to take the
oath of allegiance to the United States.
The National tribune., 1898-08-25

SPAIN does not care about having
Ceryera's men sent home, and it would
be violation of the immigration laws

They might be set to digging the Nicar-

SOMEBODY should send Aguinaldo a
good school history of the United States,

of the size of the job of making war on

AGUINALDo has apparently discov-
cred that in Admiral Dewey and Gen.
Merritt he has struck different types of

been accustomed to and he has gone

JUDGE GRossCUP, of Chicago, states
the case very succinctly when he says
-" the opening of the war was without
thought of conquest, but its prosecu ton

THE Presidents orders to Gems. Miles,
Merritt and Lawton are very plain, un-
mistakable English. The United States
authority is supreme in Cuba, Porto
Rico, and the Philippines. Everybody
must behave "allee samee Mclean
man." or he will be made to.

A Reply to the Citizens of Eckfng-
ton.


W. J. Fowler, chairman of the commit
tee on parks and trees of the North Capt.
tol and lexington Citizens Association
has addressed the District Commission
ers In behalf of the association for the
planting of trees of rapid growth on Q
Street. east of North Capitol Street, ana
on Quincy Street, between North Capitol
Street and lexington Place.
Another need OF that section OF the city
which is pointed out by the association
is the Improvement of the circle at the
intersection OF North Capitol Street and
Florida avenue.
The matter of tree planting was refer
red to Superintendent of Parking
Lanham, who recommended that the re-
guest be complied with as soon as pos
sible lie informed the Couitn.s ers
that If the order which had been made to
ill out vacant places in the city proper
is carried out before il IS done In the
suburbs, it will not be possible to reach
the streets named during the present
fiscal year. Larger appropriations are
absolutely necessary" he says, "to keep
the work OF tree planting up with street
improvements and to properly care Tor
the trees now on the streets. OF which
there are about IS ee9.' Assistant EnSl-
neer Richards states that the circles can
only be improved when larger appropria-
tions have been made.
