fectively, the population of the island
must be increased and it's commercial in
terests must be extended and multiplied.
How must these be accomplished? There
is one way only IT is by the infusion of
new blood-the blood of the Latin race.
Neither the Germans nor the Irish take
kindly to the tropics. Saxon blood will
go there. not as the laborer, but as the
master. The man and the laborer Will
be of the Latin race-Italians or Span
iards. Chinese and Japanese would fill
the bill but partly, but their presence
would be taboocd by the white man. AS
a competing laborer, they would not be
tolerated.
And vet an immigration composed of
the Latin race would be accompanied by
danger But immigration the island must
have, or it's vast agricultural and min
eral resources would remain undeveloped
and its commerce at a standstill. So the
problem presents itself in this shape:
Cuba must be popula ted in order to de-
velop it's industries The process of wait
ing for a natural increase among the ma
tives will be too slow 1t will never do.
The hardy sons of northern Europe cam
not withstand it's heat, its malaria and
tits yellow fever. The Germans, the
English and the Irish will not court the
rays of a tropical sun. The Asiatics are
out of the question, the Italians and
Spaniards may be governed by the stronS
arm Of this government, but they viii be
troublesome. Natives Of the southern
states are Just what are wanted, b,t5 they
will so to Cuba only as free-h0lde"5-
never as day la5orers. There you are,
! and the question, "Who will people
Cuba?" remains as we find it-an un-
solved problem. Until that is settled the
reconstruction of Cuba will be accom-
panied by difficulties and troubles of the
gravest character.

A VAIL FROM CALIFORNIA.

And now comes the charges Of bribery
from California in connection with the
pending senatorial contest there. A
thorough investigation may prove the
charges without foundation inafact. But
California has been singularly unfortu-
nate in the conduct of her sena torial cleo
tions. In the memorable contest between
Gwinn and Brodelick in 1854 the grounds
for trouble We're laid. Broderick was
elected. but he purchased his election at
the cost of his death at the hahds Of ex-
Justice David Terry Broderi1%z's sena-
toria mantle fell upon the shoulders of
John Ccnnors, of Ell Dorado county, after
one of the most scandalous Senatorial
fights ever recorded in the history of that
state. Since then charges of bribery or
of fraud in connection with senatorial
elections in California, have been the rule
and not the exception.
The charge of bribery entered against
Speaker Wright, will not surprise the av-
eragc Californian. These charges seem to
be indigenous as natural an out put Of
the glorious climate of the golden state,
as are it's peerless fruits, its match!ess
wines and its beautiful ladies. Unlike the
last three, however, the charges have
never amounted to anything but talk.

CUBANS TO BE PAID.

For three years 47,coO Cuban patriots
fought Spaniards to give freedom to the
island Through the intervention of this
government it was brought about. Spain
lost the West Indies and the Philippines
in her efforts to hold her colonel subjects
in serfdom. The world knows the rest,
and it has wondered and wondered again
how those fighting Cubans would be paid,
if they ever could be. One would natur-
ally conclude that the Cuban patriots
would find all the compensation they
could reasonably ask in the liberty for
which they fought. But the old Adam
crops out even among the best of men,
and the Cubans being no exception asked
for their payday for fighting for their
own liberty.
A commission composed of leading
Cuhaas has been in Washington for a
long time, seeking to raise the money to
meet the demands of those 1900 self
sacrificing Cubans. General Garcia came
over from Havana to unite his efforts
with the commission to accomplish the
end sought. Pneumonia took him off, but
the members Of the commission redoubed
their aims, and they are now happy over
their success. This government has be-
come the banker for the Cubans and will
loan them $40 600 900, taking the Cuban
customs houses for security. This may
be regarded as shrewd business tran
saction upon the part Of the government,
by many, but not few will object to the
action of the administration holding that
this mortgage upon the industries of the
island is the first step toward its per-
monent occupation by this country. It
may be all right but the venture is one
not sanctioned by any precedent establ-
lishsd by the United States.

CUBAN RECONSTRUCTION.

IF Cuba Libre'' be a dream, as some
maintain, the reconstruction of the
island is one of the most serious prob
lens which confronts the American gov
ernment. Geographically, Cuba is at cur
doorway. politically, it is rubbing against
u.s. but, morally and socially, it is as
far from US as the antipodes. The island
has no sanitary system to speak of.
That must be supplied. 1t must have
railroads, improved highways and water
ways, modern machinery, draft animals,
up-to-date farming implements and a
thousand and one conveniences and
equipments which an advanced civiliza-
ton has forced into use. This govern
ment and it's people must furnish them
all, and it must be done without friction
or without disturbing the relations which
exist between it's classes There comes
the difficult work.
The population of the island is about
800 coo souls, one-half of which is colored
the other half being evenly divided
between Cubans and Spaniards That
gives a bona fide Cuban population of
100000. They are the whites of Cuba
The total area of the island is Al 00C
square miles,less than one-third the area
of Montana, or about the size of the
state of New York, which supports q
population exceeding 10000 Cuba has
a wide margin for an increase in popu-
lation, taking into consideration that the
total of its lands brought under cultiva
tion does not exceed 100000 acres. Thus
it may be seen that under different anG
more favorable conditions the population
of the island may be increased ten-fold
without crowding homes.

SAM GCRCON ON MONTANA DE-
MOCRACY.

Mr.. Sam Gordon, editor of the Yellow
stone Journal, has cast his eye backward
and finds tha following to dish up for the
digestion Of his readers. Mr.. Gordon is
about three thirds right in his diagnosis
OF the past, and, taking off his gloves, he
uses the dissecting knife with telling
effect upon his subject. He finds:
That whenever the fair name and
fame of this peerless state IS entrusted
to the keeping of democracy, these price
less attributes are dragged through the
r.. re of political corruption and shame
lcssly made the target for the scOrn and
contempt of honest men and honest COM
munities the country over. When Mon
tanians look at the stains on the other
wise bright escutcheon of the state and
realize that every one cf them has been
deliberately daubed there by the befoul
ing hand Of Montana's democracy, a
food Of honest Indignation takes posses
sion Of the individual and the determina-
ton that the opportunity must not again
be given, is quickly formed only to lose
force and purpose on reflection that in
the compa ratively snfall area wheresfrom
one fourth to one-third of the vote Of the
state is cast, corruption rides abroad un-
disguised, and men vote not as they
would, but they are told. To the cor
rupt vote of these localities whose voters
have no interest in the welfare or future
of the state, is due and chargeable all
the disgrace which democratic supremacy
has fastened upon Montana. Where CO.
i crciOn and corruption fail to secure the
desired end, fraud is openly and shame
essly practiced, and no one objects be-
cause the power that directs this perver-
q IL.
r2nlifcaton Of the social and business
life of the community, and the few who
, really care TO change the current of
events, are. on reflection, led to weakly
trade political purity for private veal"
