THE NEW CUBA.

"This nation has assumed before the
world a grave responsibility for the fil.
ture good government of Cuba. We
have accepted trust the fulfillment oi
which calls for the sternest integrity oi
purpose and the exercise of the highest
wisdom. The new Cuba yet to arise
from the ashes of the past, must needs
be bound to us by ties Of singular init
macy and strength if its enduring welfare
is to be assured. Whether those ties
shall be organic or conventional, the des-
TIMES of Cuba are in some rightful form
and manner irrevocably linked with our
own, but how and how far is for the fu-
ture to determine in the ripeness OF
events. Whatever be the outcome, we
must see to it that free Cuba be reality,
not name, perfect entity, not hasty
experiment bearing within itself the ele-
ments of failure. Our mission, to ac-
complish which we took up the wages of
battle, is not to be fulfilled by turning
adrift any loosely-framed commonwealth
to face the vicissitudes which too often
attend weaker states whose natural
wealth and abundant resources are offset
by the incongruities of their political or
ganizatlon and the recurring occasions
for internal rivalries to sap their strength
and dissipate their energies. The great
est blessing which can come to Cuba is
the restoration of her agricultural and in
dustrial prosperity. which will give en-
ployment to the idle men and re-establish
the pursuits of peace. This is her chief
and immediate need"
These words of President Mckinley
to us are of the gravest meaning and
most important of any in the message.
As the PIONEER EXPRESS long ago
pointed out, there are possibilities in the
Cuban problem that may puzzle the
brains Of the best of our statesmen. The
future of Cuba ought not to be political
question, but it is hardly possible to
keep it from being a political issue. We
do not fear for The fatur: of Porto Rico,
Hawaii or the Philippines. They are
ours. We can do as we will with our
own, AMI we will do the best We can for
them in everything that will improve
their condition. Cuba is not ours, just a
waif we have picked up, and is only ours
i'm the sense ofresponsibility, but we have
little or no power of discipline. If Gu
bans Should meet next month, form a
government and drequest the United States
to withdraw from the island, they would
have considerable Of the argument on
their .side-much more than has
Aguinaldo and his followers in the Philip
pines-and yet we see many people Of
this country who think Aguinaldo is a
patriot.
The new Cuba must needs be bound
to US by ties OF singular intimacy and
strength" is not only true, but is after all
the greatest problem What these ties
shall be and the manner Of them as the
President suggests is 1for the future to
determine in the ripeness Of fevents.:n

rock is not of the right kind. Such &
party generally has some particular
mountain range or section of country
for its objective point, ana in going
toward it there is no turning aside from
the most direct and easiest road. Not
a man will dismount and go up into
rocky hills where a horse cannot be
taken. Such range of hills may be
skirted, and some member of the party
may point to spots that indicate the
presence of mineral veins, but the
others begin at once to point out
features of damaging character, and

In all the Pacific coast states and

that have been "prospected" in just this
way. How many expeditions we re-

ample supply Of provisions through the
long stretches of wilderness. One in
particular from the Pacific coast passed
through the southeastern part of Ore

and down through Nevada into Colo

and journeyed back to the "place Of
beginning" as the surveyors say. In
all this. trip they never dug hole five
feet deep in either quartz or placer

Throughout all the mining regions
there has been done a great deal OF
horseback prospecting, says the Clancy

The London Financial Times quotes
M. Naymarch, French authority, as
saying that several causes have com
bined to bring about the improvement
in the price of silver. They have in
cluded an increased use of the metal
for industrial purposes as a result of
low prices. There has also been an
increase in the fractional currency re-
quirements of Italy, Belgium and
Switzerland and diminution in the
stocks of silver money in the principal
European banks. The production of
the mines has been decreasing Below
2515 the mine owners have had little
object in increasing the output. The
colonial expansion of Europe in the far
east has exerted an influence. France
is face to face with large expenditure
for public works in her Indo Chinese
possessions, and Europe is to spend
nearly 940,000,000 in railway and other
construction in China. The old CONT
nent is preparing to transform the
ancient yellow country and to attract
population of 300,OO0,OOO inhabitants.
The people of Ihdo-C China and of China
itself are acquainted only with the
white metal as mode of payment AS
it has been put: "The white races
make their money out of the yellow
metal and the yellow races make their
money out of the white metal" NJ.
concludes by expressing an
opinion that the rise in silver is only
beginning, and that it will gradually
advance from 35d to sod as the opening
up of China increases.

That Which is New.

A good part, in fact large majority,
of She individuals who go to make up
society, abhor anything which is new.
The small minority of wider views are
obliged to kick the numbering mass of
non. progressives along the road to
better things, before the better things
can be enjoyed by the whole. 1t is
hard work; some of the kickers are
killed off for their pains, but they
never lose in the fight for progress.
Those who are hanged today are car
onized tomorrow. Socrates taught that
there was a supreme God, and was
forced to drink hemlock, for The Greeks
ruled that no atheist" should live.
Christ was crucifled for teaching sys-
TEN of ethics which is theoretically eX-
cellent, but which is not followed and
won't be this side heaven. The system
was new thing 1900 years ago, and
dangerous to teach. 1t is nearly 1000
years old now, and its practice con-
tinues quite as dangerous as its teach
ing proved then. Coming nearer our
own times we have, not a hundred
years ago, the people along the banks
Of the Hudson crying ont against that
new abomination, the steamboat, on
the ground that it would frighten all
'theIfsh from the Hudson river. The
protest did not stay the steamboat
however, although the conservative
kickers made no end Of trouble for
those who regarded the steamboat as
rather good thing, and not particu-
larly injurious to the fishing industry.
A few years later the cry went up
against the locomotive. Ills new
thing, it was pointed out, might be of |
some use, but would brighten horses,
and went SO fast about twelve tmiles
an hour at that tirhe) that it was sure
to run down cattle, which could never
be taught to keep out of its way. The
good which the locomotive would &C
complish as a carrier, it was solemnly |
asserted, would never equal the evil
that it would do as stock killer The
iron horse, however, continued to take
on weight and speed, against the earn
est protest of those who abhor the
thing that is new.
Thousands Of other examples could
be given, but the last to come up will
suffice.
The automobile is about the newest
thing out. Its success is assured, its
progress irresistible, but the hater of
the new is at hand, and his piping voice
Is heard in solemn protest against the
horseless carriage. He has appeared
in force in Chicago, where he has Or
dained that no carriage which runs
without a horse or horses shall be per-
mitted on the streets of Chicago. Al
ready two courageous souls have been
arrested for resisting this law. Their
trial comes up within a few days, and
their conviction is not improbable.
The horseless carriage, however, is
here to stay. Nothing can prevent its
development. The haters of the new
may hang in solid chain on the tail
of progress, but they cannot stay ad-
vancement. They are much like cat
which resists being pulled over the car
pet by the tail. They, like the cat,
clutch at everything in sight, spit ana
snarl, and tear things generally, but
they, like the cat, must yield to super
Tor force, and move whether they would
or not. The world has a swift move on ,
it, and nothing born of woman can hold
1t back.-Silver State.
