A GOOD OPINION ABOUT CUBA

In another column appears a letter
written to the \. Y. Herald by Mr..
Osgood Welch, who is a sugar planter
in Cuba. Mr.. WEIGH was, some years
ago, engaged in the business of refin-
ing sugar in Philadelphia, and subse-
quently was engaged in the importa-
ton of sugar from Cuba He finally
became a sugar planter, and is
thoroughly familiar with the business.
He is man of unusual ability, and his
judgment on the situation in Cuba
should be carefully considered.
The standing menace in the near fu-
ture to the Hawaiian sugar industry
is the sugar industry of Cuba. The
planters of Louisiana also regard it as
a menace to their own sugar industry.
The sugar beet people also so regard it.
The United States undertook to
maintain order in Cuba until its peo-
pie should establish and maintain de-
cent self-government. 1t was believed
at one time, that they could and would
do SO. r,r>. ~
The experience of the last few
months is, that there can be no poll
teal order in Cuba until there is in
dustrial prosperity, and there cannot
be industrial prosperity if Cuban sugars
are subject to the Federal tariff laws.
The Federal government is confronted
with the proposition of annexing the
Island so as to make it's sugar free
or with the other proposition of deal
ing with million and a half of people
who in their poverty, will be restless,
rush into insurrection, and cast upon
the government a large expense in
maintaining order. So Mr.. Osgood
says: IF annexation does not come
pretty quickly this government is go
ing to have more trouble in Cuba than
it has ever dreamed of.
The Americans in Cuba, larger in
number than the American born re-
siding in these Islands, take the same
ground that Americans have taken
here, that lit is the manifest destiny of
Cuba to become a part of the United
States, and the Expansionists agree
with them. The sugar interests ana
ourselves, it needs much heroic patriot
ism for us to become hearty Expan-
sionists, when that means the favor
ing of a competition of our own indus
Rico, Cuba and the Philippines, where
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1899-08-05

there is, at least, much more labor TO
be had than We can secure.
While the lower classes in Cuba
may oppose annexation, there is al
ready evidence to show that the Cubans
who have property and influence, TO-
gether with the Americans and Euro
peans, are beginning those manipula-
tons in politics, which viii secure in
Cuba a popular vote for annexation.
\ few American bosses" manipulate
ing the local Cuban politicians, and,
indirectly aided by the American
troops, will easily stuff the ballot
boxes, and the majority of votes will
be in favor of annexation. If the
Sugar Trust is investing in Cuban
properties, it can readily furnish the
sum needed to persuade the ignorant
voters. But with annexation, it will
be some years before Cuba will serious
ly injure us.

though Manager Eugene Herman had en-
gagged a combination to give his benefit on
June 5. several weeks ago. so many clever
members of these troupes have volunteer
ed their services that sort of additional
bill has been made up for the occasion
from the entertainers who have offered
their assistance. Thus the performance
will be double show with a triple reason
for patronage. Truly Shattuck, who is a
strong favorite here. Is among the people
whose tender has been accepted and she
will head the roster OF those to be seen.
Altogether the affair viii be notable and
should draw well.
"Iu time of peace prepare for war" is q
proTerb of ancient origin and modern force.
For the sake OF its contemporary meaning
the line might be so altered as to read:

Whether the paraphrase ever becomes as
familiar as its subject. the fact remains
that the coming celebration. which occurs
here on May 23, "a. and 25, will be largely
given to such displays ,as will recall the
recent combat between this country and
Spain. The most elaborate OF these will be
a trio of pyrotechnic sp pectacularitles, which
will be given under the supervision Of the

OF the Jubilee.

CHILDHooD's HOME.
A Party of Wright County People
Have Gone to the Scenes of Their
Youth in Europe.

After an absence of 26 years quite
party of Wright county people sailed
on the steamship Campagnia from New
York for the home of their childhood
i'll the old world. II. T. and a. L. Ashe
and sister, Mrs. Melinda johnson, will
make three months visit to their
aged parents in Bergen, Norway: Rob-
ert Lucus and wife will spend the sum-
mer with his parents at Dungonnon, Ty-
rome county, Ireland, and Andrew Skou-
lin and Mrs. Chris johnson will visit
relatives during the summer at Chris
tiania, Norway. These people arrived
in this country quarter of a century
ago with very small allowance of this
worlds goods, but with an abundance
of pluck and determination to succeed
in their new home. Coming to Iowa
they settled in Norway township,
Wright county, and are to-day among
the most influential and wealthy peo-
pie in Iowa. The secret of their sue
cess is, briefly: They never lost conf
dence in Iowa soil and its possibilities,
and results show how they were not
disappointed. Twen1y-six years ago
they crossed the ocean as emigrants;
now they go back as tirst-class passen-
gers, with fat pocket books, backed by
the finest farms in Iowa.

IOWA STATE NEWS
INSANITY REPORT.
Superintendent of the Independence
Hospital Gives Some Interesting
Facts in His Message.

The report of DR.. Gresham II. Hill,
superintendent of the Independence
hospital for the insane, shows that the
tendency toward insanity is much
stronger on the part of persons born
outside the United States than those
born in America. The percentage of
foreign population is much larger than
the percentage of American population
in the state. The Irish and Scandinavia
ans are most prone to insanity, DR.. Hill
says. Married women are more likely
to become insane than single women,
but single men are more subject to in
sanity than married men. The largest
number of insane charged to any one
occupation are farmers, farmers wives,
sons and daughters, but DR.. Hill says
this is because there are more people
of this class than any other. and not be-
cause their environments cause insan-
ity. On the contrary, he claims that the
quiet of the farm is the best place for
an insane person, and least likely to
produce insanity. Many of the patients
in the state hospitals are kept at work
on the farm, as we'll as in various shops
and other employment, and the proper
ton of idleness in the state hospitals is
very small. The mild incurables do
great deal of necessary work which, if
they were taken away to the county
houses, would have to be done by hired
help

The Iowa delegation in congress for
mally launched the speakership boom
for Col. ID. u. Henderson, of the Third
Iowa district, by giving out joint let
ter addressed to the republican men,
beers of the Fifty-sixth congress, urg-
ing support for their colleague. The
letter is signed by the entire state dele
CATION, with the exception of Mr.. Hen
derson.
The address asks support for him not
because of locality, but presents his can
didacy on national grounds. The let
ter calls attention to Mr.. Henderson's
nine terms in congress, and his con-
tinuons service since 1882, dwells upon
his republicanism, and recites at length
his qualifications for the high office
earned through long service on the
floor and on important committees, his
perfect knowledge of parliamentary
law, gained through his leadership of
the committee on rules, and his friend
ships among all parties.
The address closes with an extended
sketch of Col. Henderson's life.
