principles which it advocates. 1t is
very evident that the Populists can
not hope to obtain from the Republic
can party the reforms for which they
contend and that alliance with that
party is made by the leaders for pur-
poses of pie. On the other hand, it
is equally evident that the success of
the Democrat. party will bring many
of the reforms advocated by the Pop
ulists. Hence, we submit that the
honest Populists can best serve them
selves and their State by walking in
to the Democratic fold and making
their power felt for good.
IT appears to be the misfortune of
this country that those who possess
the greatest knowledge of how the
wsr should be conducted are not in
the army at all, not even as high
privates in the rear rank. They
| sniff the battle from afar, but know
just how it should be waged. The
second call for volunteers affords
them another opportunity to LEND
their wisdom and yalor to thei
country. viii they permit the op
portunity to pass?

ering the exact day OF departure. and
1t Is said that positive orders have
been given that preparations must be

10 having everything In readiness by
the end OF this week.
Two Of the colliers which are to nc
company the expedition are at Norfolk
for the purpose OF putting light batter
les on them. The officer In charge OF
the work has estimated that 4. would
take two weeks TO get the batteries to-
gether and have them mounted. This
meant delay. and MI order has been
given that the work he completed this
week. or else that the colliers go with
out their light batteries.
The same view IL taken rs to the
condition OF the ships. The fleet Of
ilcers would like to have the ships

overhnuling done. But this means de-
lay. and the disposition here Is to have
the cleaning and repairing done ns

Washington. July 18.-A state paper
that will be historic, marking an
epoch In American history, was issued
tonight by direction OF President Nc
kinley. II provides In general terms
for the government OF the province Of
Santiago De Cuba. and h the tirst doc.
ument Of the kind ever prepared by u
President Of the United States. BY Or
der OF Secretary Alger, Adjutnnt Cen
erai Corbin tonight cabled the docu-
ment to General Shafter. In command
OF the military forces at Santiago. The
paper Ii not only nm authorization and
instruction to General Shafter for the
government Of the captured territory,
but also proclamation to the people
OF the territory Of the Intentions of the
government OF the United States re-
garding them and their interests. 1t
marks the formal establishment OF IA
new political power In the island OF
Cuba and insures to the people Of the
territory over which the power ex-
tends absolute security In the exercise
OF their private rights and relations, as
well as security to their persons and
property.
In brief. the document is a statement
to the Cubans OF the conquered district
thnt the present laws, courts and muni-
cipnl officers will be recognized by this
government except under special cir
cumstanccs.
The administration II determined to
open the port OF Santiago without de-
lay, so that business can resume It's
normal course with the least possible
! interruption, Thus enabling the inhabi-
tan's to become self-supporting and
making the problem of caring for and
governing the conquered territory much
more simple.
Secretary Gage and the President to-
day agreed upon Il schedule Of tariff
taxes to be collected by the military
authorities and turned into the treas
ury as military contribution.
The schedule. which was telcgraphed
to General Shafter tonight, is prac-
ticnlly the minimum Cuba tarin sched-
ulc that was cnfored In Cuba by
Spain. This minimum schedule ap-
Piled only TO goods imported into the
island from Spain. goods from other
countries being taxed on an average OF
twice aS much. As the low rates nrc
now to apply 10 goods from all coun-
tries the effect will he favorable to the
commerce OF the port.
A complete postot!ice Is being cstab-

point In the surrounding country will

be delivered mt the doms;ic postal rate
OF two cents for each ounce In the ease
