Peace in Cuba.

Nothing happens in Cuba in the way OF
a disturbance. though it may be fracas
between policeman and tipsy soldier or
Cuban, but Ii is reported by the correspou-
dents of the American newspapers. Yet in
spite of this disposition to make the most
of everything lawless. it does not appear
that Havana is any less peaceabie than New
York or any other American city. The con-
ditions are favorable to small disorders.
but of any serious dissatisfaction with
American rule We hear nothing. All the
respectable citizens of Havana and other
Cuban communities appear TO look on the
administration of Cuban affairs as excel
lent just. and in the interest of the island
FOR such stupid suggestions as that OF Gen
eral Shafter. that our troubles there are
not over, there is no apparent foundation
The most significant thing is the proela
nation which General Gomez decided 10
issue. after a conference with General
Brooke. He urges the people not to agi-
tale the question OF American withdrawal.
He sees the necessity Of an indefinite pro-
;ectcTste and the vital need Of letting poll
tics alone for the present. Every energy
should be devoted to reaching a condition
Of self-suppcFt. He realizes the absurdiiy
of any demand for the withdrawal OF This
Government while it is feeding large part
AZ the people. With the diabanding of the
army and the division of the three mil
lion dollars comes the opportunity 10 be-
gin the work of farming again. General
Gomez is the popular leader and has the
support OF most of the officers of the Cuban
army That his suggestions ara accepted
as commands to be obeyed is the general
testimony. Therefore there is not the
least reason to fear even impatience VITA
American administration.
1t viii be recalled that some months
ago General Gomez was an advocate of
immediate independence. He issued 4
proclamation for the organization of
Cuban party to promote the withdrawal OF
the Americans. Since then he has tested
popular sentiment and has discovered ire
sincerity of the officers of this Government
in caring for Cuban interests. The re-
srlt is this latest address to the people.
il viii be necessary for American authority
10 be maintained for years. Satisfied that
they could not prosper under a govern
ment of their own as they viii under this
Government the Cubans viii place 10
obstacle in our way. 1t is almost fore
gene conclusion that instead of urging
Independence they will advocate annexa-
tion. as an influential class does now.
