ness or bad faith on its part. 1t Is going
forward with its work as swiftly as the
situation warrants. The difficulties pre-
sented are very great. and 1t is for the Gu
bans to exhibit not only faith. but patience
1t is in their power now to advance re-
tard their own fortunes by the wisdom or
the folly of the course they choose.
The people Of the United States arc bet
ter judges than arc the people of Cuba of
hat is necessary in the way of establish
ing d strong ana stable government in the
II rterests of all. They are familiar with
the whole process. They are master work
men in that line. The people of Cuba can
afford to learn of them. They are fortu-
generous and so capable to take in hand
problem so complex and dscouraging is
that of rearing a structure of good govern
ment on ruins where Spanish hands have
done their very worst. Nobody but master
workmen could hope to succeed; and as
such are near, and are laboring in Cuba's
interest it is the duty of the Cuban people,
and all, to bear a hand under American
direction.
There is no need. therefore, for a reor-
ganization of Cuban troops in any portion
of the island. American troops will be
hand in numbers sufficient to preserve
order and answer every end to be sub
served by the military. The Cuban who
lays down his gun. keeps the peace and
gees to work will serve his country and
help to hasten the day of its independence

The Appeal for nifty.

The Presidents appeal for unity until
terms of permanent peace have been ar
ranged with Spain is made with force and
dignity. His argument is clear and unas-
salable. All that has been accomplished
In war represents united action. and the
whole country shares in the glory of the
achievement. But the fruits of victory have
yet to De garnered and they cannot be
properly garnered unless the country con-
tinues to present united front to the out
side world. If in the midst of our negOtia-
tions at Paris local divisions here at home
shall go to such an extreme to represent
to foreigners an inability on our part to
grasp. or an unwillingness to undertake,
plain national duty the country will suffer
as the result of it.
The situation is not only difficult, but en-
tireIy new The people have not been cali
ed upon heretofore to deal with such Il
question We try our local cases in open
local courts and we understand and make
the proper allowances for heated contrO-
versies and the acrimony of warm parts
auship. But we are now in the open court
of the world. with case of worldwide in
terest. and We cannot with safety appear
there except in agreement among ourselves
and in earnest advocacy of one supreme
end. We cannot assail the administration
or discredit our representatives at Paris
without inflicting injury on the whole
country
1t Is no proper answer to accuse the Pres
ident of sclfishness in this appeal; to say
that he makes it because he will benefit by
united action. He is the country'S chief
magistrate and stands for the country. He
is COmplimented upon his conduct of the
war, and deservedly. He has benefited by
that. He is entitled 10 whatever praise he
merits while occupying an office to which
he has been elevated by the majority of
the people. If the war had proved disas-
trOus to the United States it would have
proved disastrous also TO him. He would
have been held responsible for the full fail
Ure recorded. 1t is but fair. therefore, that
he now enjoys credit for the conduct of the
substantial and brilliant triumphs of the
war with Spain.
AS was said at the outset, the question is
entirely new We have not dealt with its
like at any time in our history. But, nev-
ertheless, the duty of the hour is plain
enough. and the President points ii out
with becoming and sufficient force.

The Ice Trusf.

The local indications that a gigantic ice
trust is in formation, disclosed BY a publi-
cation In yesterdays Star, would have been
more dIsquieting ten years ago than they
are at this time, in view of the scientific
achievements which have taken ice from
the realm of cornerable commodities close
ly affecting the comfort, health and welfare
of the people No longer can the enterpris-
ing capitalist hope to control the output as
he can in the case of oil, coal, gas and
many other items of daily consumption
The ice-making machine has wrought d
marked change in the commercial world
as affects this important hot-weather ar
tiCle Of commerce. With access to a sup
ply of water-which need not necessarily be
absolutely pure, in view of the ease with
which II can be distilled-a plant capable of
producing hundreds of tons of ice daily can
readily be created and the product sold at
price which permits direct competition
with the handlers of natural ice This
process has not yet been developed to such
an extent that the artificial ice can far
undersell the other. for even when the haul
from the deeply freezing rivers of the north
to the southern cities is taken into account
the profit on this commodity is said to be
enormous. especially when communication
is had by all-water routes. Yet as long as
II is thus possible for any company outside
of d syndicate to enter the market with a
competing product the corner is broken.
The baltimore experience, as suggested in
the news publication yesterday, illustrates
this matter clearly. In that city the ice
trust started its operations by reducing the
price to l. cents hundred pounds, d low
rate, but after short time the price was
doubled, and in relief the people encouraged
the establishment Of new concerns. which,
independent Of the supply from the north
ern rivers, could maintain steady output
regardless of the obstructive tactics of the
syndicate 1t is by no means desirable that
any agency should operate to increase the
price of ice to the retail consumer, or even
70 maintain il at the present height In
view of the added facilities for maintaining
the supply and meeting the increasing de-
mand it is even proper for the people to
expect that the rate be steadily reduced to
conform to modern conditions.

The Estimates for '33.

The annual estin ates prepared by the
Commissioners for submission to Congress,
reproduced today in his issue, admirably
indicate the steady growth of the national
ca pital In every dir iIectiCn and its progress
toward the municipai Ideal. The estimates
are based upon the revenues which, 1t IS
calculated, will accrue during the coming
fiscal Year. These revenues. together with
the probable balarCe in the Treasury at
the close Of the pre- sent fiscal year to the
credit of the District, will amount to
S. 4S2, 500. .26. The estimated expenditures
reach the total of s., 49,, ,OO652. OF this
sum- it Is figured the District will pay,
exclusively out of its own funds, S13J 00O,
and on this basis the Districts share Of
the annual b ldget will be the equal of It's
estimated revenues. while the governments
share will be 81, ,3o2. JO3.26.
These estimates are larger by 500 62
than those submitted a year ago. This
difference illustrates the growth of the
Districts requirements in all departments.
1t is to be noted that the Commissioners
omit this year their usual estimate for a
T.unicipal building, for which they have
been petitiOning for many sessions. This
omission does not arise from an abandon
ment of the plan to secure for the District
an appropriately large and imposing struc-
ture devoted to the transaction of the
municipal business. 1t is understood that
the Commissioners will wage the fight for
this purpose more vigorously than ever by
urging the passage of legislation on this
subject reported from the District COM
mittees
There are estimates for many of the most
commendablc objects, for more schools fer
more policemen. for additional fre-figh ing
facilities, for a morgue. for more ade-
quate river patrol, for better street clean
ing and for more efficient sanitary pro-
cesses.

The Renction in China

Friends of civilizations advance into the
fa- east should not be wholly depressed by
the news which continues to come from
Pekin concerning the raids which the
dowaget empress is making among the re-
formers who have sought to set up western
standards in the empire. The reaction Is
complete. to be sure, and for the present 1t
pr romises the utter annihilation OF all hopes
that China may soon emerge from the dark
ness into the light. But 1t is too thorough,
too savage in its resentment. to endure un-
less all the signs which have preceded # in
other newly enlightened lands fail now to

guide The latest step by the empress IS
to interdict all the native newspapers, pun
iShing their editors She has also caused
the board of agriculture to be abolished and
It's chief degraded. All officials who have
hitherto petitioned for reforms. such as the
emperor favored, have been dismissed and
a reign of terror is said to prevail among
the more progressive people. To be other
than Chinese in any deed or word or sug
gested wish. and Chinese. too, in sense
involving all of the despotism and isolation
of the past ages. is to incur the hatred of
the now ruling class and to court death.
The abolition of the newspapers does not
signify as much in China as it would in
almost any other part of the world. But
1t is easy to foresee that this step is likely
to be followed by a counter reaction which
may ultimately carry the reform movement
far ahead 1t is the practically unbroken
experience of pioneers of civilization that
when once people have tasted the fruits
of progress they are loath to relinQuish
them. China Is directly in the path of the
worlds advance in thought and action She
cannot. of course, be regarded as an un-
cultured land, for she has a civilization of
her own dating back beyond the beginnings
Of that which we call by the same name

by the new and it threatens to overwhelm
her.
Russia now favors this present reaction,
tut. solely for her own selfish purposes.
The struggle in China between the progress
sive party and that of the dowager empress
is virtually the struggle in another form
between the two great rivals for dominance
in the far east, Russia and Great Britain.
1t Russia should succeed the day of true
enlightenment in China may be delayed. If.
on the other hand. England should gain
from her rival the control of the eastern
coast of Asia as she now controls in large
measure the southern coast the day of
genuine reforms in China will be close "a:

Westerners may not appreciate fully the
exact nature of the China man in his own
land. Devotion to tradition is d prominent
characteristic. This tendency to retain the
old regardless of the advantages of the new

and. therefore. Russia. 1t remains a ques
