No More Oppression in Cuba.

1t is said on excellent authority, that
of the representatives of business houses
in Cuba in the United States, that what
the merchants of that island are now
fearing most is that after Spain has
evacuated the country and the United
States has finished the work of shipping
the last vestage of Spanish power home,
they will be compelled to submit to the
rule Of the insurgents. From the latter
they expect nothing less than a tyranny
far more oppressive than that of Spain,
and that they will be prescribed and
their property contiscated. These APP
%prehensions are n%nfounded.
At this time the wisdom of President
Mckinley in refusing to recognize the
independence of the Cuban insurgents,
at the time the people of the United
States were clamoring for that recogni-
ton, becomes apparent. The provisions
of the protocol which has been signed
are likewise sensible. They provide
that Spain shall relinquish all soveringty
over and title to Cuba, leaving the form
of government to be given the island a
matter to be settled by future develop
ments. AS the situation is now the
United States is not bound by any pro-
mise or agreement to place the insur-
gents in power, neither is the govern
ment bound to %relinquish the island to
any other power. The only obligation
that has been assumed is to give the in
habitants of Cuba a permanent and
liberal form of government.
Under the conditions which now exist
the people of the island are in a posi-
ton to choose what form of government
they will have. The insurgents do not
constitute the majority of the residents,
and the people of the whole island are
doubtless capable of deciding who shall
rule over them. If they should decide
against the insurgents, which they I'M
doubtedly will, the United States will
see that the popular preference is not
overriden, and if annexation is desired
the island will at once become a part OF
this country under some suitable terri
torial government.
One thing is certain, this country did
not wage the war with Spain and drive
that power from the island to turn the
people and business interests over to a
set of men who will impose greater hard
ships than were experienced under the
former rulers. The sacrifices that the
Americans have made in behalf of the
starving reconcentradoes were not made
to provide men who will not recognize
the rights of property and hold life and
liberty sacred, with offices and oppor-
tunities to satiate their desire for re-
venge for past wrongs in mistreating
those who have had nothing to do with
maintaining conditions which have ex-
isted in Cuba for 400 years.
The merchants and all other classes
Of people in Cuba may rest assured that
there will be no more wars of extermin-
alton waged on that island so long as
this government lives. The island be-
longs to the United States now, and I'M
less the people decide othe rwise and Of
themselves cal govern it in a civilized
manner, it will remain in that possession.

Captain Luna For Delegate.

Washington Correspondence Denver News.)
Governor M. A. Otero is at the Shore
ham. He is here looking after some be-
lated appointments. He claims that the
advantage in New Mexico is largely
with the Republicans, and says Presi-
dent McKinley's administration is i'm
mensely popular.
In an interview with the Post he
brings Luna out for congress. He says:
Captain Max Luna, of Spanish lineage,
especially distinguished himself in the
charge at San Juan. 1t was reported
that he was killed, but he is very much
alive. and it would not be astonishing If
his Republican friends did not insist ON
his running for congress in November.
Mr.. FERGUSON, the present delegate, is
a Democrat and was elected by a large
majority, but l don't think that he would
stand any chance against Captain Luna,
who has already filled offices of i'm
portance in the territory and whose war
record has made him new friends by the
hundred"

The platform adopted by the Mis-
souri, state Democratic convention OPP
poses a large standing army as Gun
necessary and expensive" and because
it ''might become an instrument of op-
preston and a source OF danger to our
institutions" There is nothing strange
in the attitude of the Missouri Demo-
Gratis on the standing army question.
There are many nice, intelligent people
in that state, but the great majority of
the inhabitants are still voting for An
drew Jackson for president, and could
not for the life of them tell how many
men are In the army Of the United
States today. In fact, it is only within
the past ten years that a number of
farmers in Galloway county learned
that slavery had been abolished. The
Democrats of Missouri mean all right,
but they are somewhat behind the age,
that's all.

of the garment 1t ornaments, and on a
journey all unnecessary fatigue is to be
avoided, and the costume ought to be so
arranged as to appear always fresh and
clean. Therefore anything which collects
dust or becomes quickly crumpled or willis
with moisture is unsuitable.
The tailor made gown is the ideal dress
for travelling, as it is plain, neat and emf
nently serviceable, while yet it is smart and
up to date. Drap d'ete, thin cheviot, serge
and mixed goods are all suitable materials,
as they are not injured by dust or damp
ness and may be q pickly brushed. Velvet
is an undesirable trimming and If en-
ployed at all should be used sparingly for
revers, collar and cuffs. Mohair braid
and stitched straps with ornamental but
tons are the preferred decorations.
