ASKS FOR DISCHARGE.
A Determined Effort to BE Made by
Cleveland People.

Cleveland People.
Cleveland, Ohio. Aug. 27.-A determined
effort is being made to secure the dis
charge of a number of volunteers in the
1ith United States infantry, now sta
toned at Manila. At a meeting held to-
day to discuss means to secure the dis
charge of 200 Clevelanders in the regi-
ment two letters from .Adjutant Ward
were read. They were dated few hours
apart but directly contradicted each
other.
In one the adjutant says the boys of the
14th regiment would arrive home from
the Philippines on the Pennsylvania, and
in the other he said the department was
unable to say when the boys would ar
rive in this country. The petition asking
for the discharge of the regiment has
more than 12OO signatures.

gion where he embarks in trade will
reach out to new territory in which to
dispose Of his wares. If he fails to do
this his competitor will do it, and by
reason of acquiring greater volume of

ufacturing nation. She now is reaching
out for the trade Of the world, and
sweeping away barriers. Of course, the
try is found where the people of that
nation reside, in the mother country or
in the colonies. The United States has
a splendid home market, but her indus
tries are now so great that they must
suffer by limiting production unless she
sells also in other markets. With the
United States in charge of islands in
the Atlantic and Pacific, naturally her
people will go there to engage in bust
ness, and the people thereof will be-
come consumers of American manufac-
tured articles. San Francisco, for in
stance, already reports that her mer-
chants are shipping $780, 900 more in
merchandise monthly than they were
before the flag was hoisted over the new
possessions on the Pacific.

Cuba ADVANCING.

General Lee says Cuba is improving.
Thai declaration should annul all the
statements thai Cuban generals and
politicians who expected to- secure Of
flee and to manage the affairs of their
country may send out. Undoubtedly it
is American enterprise and methods
which are making the improvement.
The American troops there have a salu-
tary influence upon the people, not be-
cause force is absolutely essential now,
but because the presence of the soldiers
serves to discourage any agitation that
might eventually grow into disorder.
The money spent in public work and
paid from customs receipts, which, I'M
der Spanish regime were squandered,
helps the people to live while the coun-
try is getting it's agricultural industries
re-established. Never before did the
people there have an opportunity to OBJ
serve what continued enterprise will &C
complish. They are learning American
ism by precept and experience, and
whether they decide to establish a gov
eminent of their own or to become a
part of the great nation which relieved
them from utter ruin and extinction,
Cubans will w more to the people of
the United States than can ever be paid
in any way except by steadfast loyalty
and improving to the utmost the ad-
vantages made possible for advancing
themselves and their country.

Mining in Mexico Risky.

During the past yea $50, 900, 900 of
American money is said to have been
invested in Mexico. But this country
will scarcely miss it even if there be no
returns. One New York man has Just
willed a son almost that much. Most of
the investments in Mexico are in min
ing. The people of Mexico are now far
more liberal in their treatment of Out
landers and investors than are those Of
the Transvaal, or even of Canada, and
some day a large American population
may be found in Mexican mining CEN
tiers. But it might be better for invest
ors to engage in the industry in their
own land, for there is plenty of rich
mineral territory in New Mexico where
no conflict with a foreign government
oped wealth. In Mexico dynamite and
other monopolies may be established to
hold up Outlanders. Under the admin
istration of President Diaz extortion
may not be permitted, but a narrow
minded successor may bring about a
different state of affairs hat will de-
prive mining companies Of privileges
now enjoyed. And this change may
come in a day by an executive order or
by enactment of other mining laws.
While no civilized government can ar
bitrarily c%onfiscate private property
without cause, it is quite possible to do
so under forms Of law for small reason,
or in consequence of technicalities ar
ranged for the purpose. Taxation upon
the output of mines may be increased
to a point where operations will cease to
be profitable. Just now there seems to
be no reason for alarm upon such mat
tiers, but the fact is, the existing liber-
ality in Mexico toward foreigners has
been brought about through the efforts
of one man, President Diaz, and there
may be a relapse under some successor.
When the number Of Americans in
Mexico increases and their local influ-
ence extends, or If border troubles
should arise, it would be very easy to
infiame the people against Outlanders
and to take reprisal or vengeance for
real or fancied wrongs against mining
investors by legislation and rulings in
imical to mine owners from the United
States. To be sure, too great wrongs in
this way might eventually lead to a
subjugation of Mexico by this country,
but this would be only after much loss
had been caused to investors.
Mexico, of course, offers great temp
tations for risky investments, because
portions of it are remote enough for
the element of fiction to be worked for
all it is worth, with little danger of the
exposure of falsehood early enough.
Many persons who cannot go so far to
investigate, and who could learn little
did they go to the field ignorant of min
ing and the language of the country,
nay be led into joining in speculations
there. The careful man who looks
ahead for squalls and who desires to
have his funds invested in a section
that is accessible, where he can be
among people of his own kind and have
some chance of learning how matters
are conducted, should not send his
money to a foreign country when there
are as good opportunities for securing
valuable property in New Mexico as
there are anywhere in the world.

1t is altogether probable that the Ri.
Hon. Joseph Chamberlain does not
share the deep regret of the Rt. Hon.
William H~ohenzollern that Germany's
navy is weak. Nor will the regret be
shared by other representatives Of Eu-
ropean powers. The relative weakness
of the German navy is the security Of
Germany's neighbors. If her navy were
equal to her army in strength and eff
cheney Germany would be shouldering
everybody else out of the way, and it
would take a universal coalition to stop
her. 1t is the superiority of the British
navy and the strength of the German
army which balance matters up and
keep the European brethren from one
another's threats.

common practice in young mining
camps for resident optimists to claim
them as ineipient rivals Of Cripple

are made by Colorado experts who have

no larger veins of gold bearing ore

The day is coming to railways when
~labor-saving devices for loading and
%unliading cars will be used, and ship
pers will as far as possible prepare
goods for less handling. Certainly for
all such freights as grain, coal and ores
cars will be supplied which may be
emptied by the turn of a brake or the
lifting Of a lever. This will involve
quicker unloading and reuse of the cars.
The days of the shoveler of railroad

and the only wonder is that the methods
nov in vogue have not already been
abandoned. The field for railway in

There ought to be no hesitation on
the part of congress when it assemblies
in declaring in favor of the establish
e. and maintenance of the authority
and sovereignty of the United States
over the Philippine islands. Such a dec
laration would have a pacifying effect.
There has been SO much talk by anti
expansionist leaders, all of which finds
it's way to the ears of Aguinaldo, that
it is not surprising that the insurgent
chief should think the people of the

vided on the question. 1t Is time to give

AMERICAN RIGHTS IN CHINA.
(Kansas City Star.)
The notice which the United States
has served on Russia, Germany and
France that American treaty rights
with China must be respected in all con-
cessions which are obtained by those
countries explains why such a strong
naval force has been concentrated in
the Philippines. 1t is evident that the
nations which are attempting to divide
China up into spheres of influence"
will have more respect for the rights Of
the United States if there is a powerful
fleet Of war-ships in Asiatic waters than
they would have if this country were
now pursuing it's former policy of stay
ing at home and keeping out of inter-
national affairs.
The great trade stake of the future is
recognized in all industrial nations to
be the rapidly developing Chinese de-
mand for manufactured goods, and the
United States has only to maintain its
present prestige in the Orient and to
continue its present progress in manu-
trade.
Whether China is to be dismembered
and divided up among the great powers
which are ~contending for dominion
there, or is to maintain it's integrity as
a nation by reason of the inability of
the European nations to agree on the
parts that each is to acquire, the United
States must maintain the rights Of
trade that it has secured by treaty
with the Chinese, and a firm, clear pol
icy, pursued without any hesitancy or
deviation, and backed by the constant
presence of powerful war-ships in orr
entail seas, will accomplish this result
and keep China open to American
goods, whatever other nations may be
shut out of different sections of the
kingdom.
