Agitation in Cuba is not likely to
hasten the establishment of an indie
pendent Cuban government. When
the Cubans have shown their ability
to properly conduct the municipal
governments, which they will be
given an opportunity to elect as soon
as a census of the island has been
taken, it will he time TO consider the
next step.

DYNAMITE is effective and very
powerful, but the way street car
strikers are using it, it is much more
detrimental TO the cause of organized
labor, and those directly interested,
than to any other source. Nothing
can be gained by lawlessness. but
much sympathy for organized labor
can be lost by it.

A MONUMENT TO THE WOMEN OF THE
CONFEDERACY.

The unanimous adoption by the L..
OBJ. Branch Camp of Confederat Veter-
ans of a resolution looking-to the cree.
ton of monument ITO the Women OF
the Confeieracy" is a movement that we
believe VIII commend itself equally to the
men who wore the gray and know at
first hand the heroism and devot:on Of
the women OF the State and to those of
a younger and brighter day who know
of it only Gin song and story"
1t is not alone that the women of
North Carolina cheered the soldier at
the front and bound up the wounds of
the soldier i'm the hospital, that she well
coined back the man in tattered gray. IL

brave smile for his sake and set about
to build a new home on the old homes
ashes-but years after she took the lead
in the movement to commemorate those
for whom there was no homecoming
lie monument to the Confederate SBl-
der is her handiwork But for her it
had not been.
Let it not be said that the men of the
State do not appreciate these things
and let that appreciation take the form
that shall speak in endrring lines of
beauty to those who shall come after.
1t as a matter of remark at every re-
union how fast the old veterans are an
swering the last roll call Is it for
gotten that the women of the Confeder-
acy are also passing away! And shall
it be said. when history makes up its
record, that they had gone from the
scene before the men of North Carol ma
took Thought to honor them i'll the eyes
of all men? We TRUST NOT.
This is matter in which no appeal
should be necessary. 1t should be done
quietly. generously, handsomely and by
| the men of North Carolina. In every
| town in the State committees should
sum raised as will buila<a monument
worthy of what it stands for-so far as
any monument may be. The veterans
at their meeting here next week shOuld
and doubtless will, take appropriate ac

it would be necessary to compel him to
disarm. If he is a patriot, seeking only
the Independence of his natiY land,
he would readily and gladly welcome
government by the consent of the gov
erned and disband his army. Some peo-
pie, like Governor Roosevelt, think he
is another Sitting Bull Some others,
like Mr.. Edward Atkinson, think he is
another Washington. The truth proba-
bly, lies between the two. His attitude
in fighting for independence is like
Washington il his motives are like
Washington's. This test would prove
his real character.
"But," says one, you are right in
saying that war could have been aver
ted by promising independence, but now
that we lost that opportunity would it
not look like weakness for great coun-
independence" 1t would look like weak
ness if this country was engaged i'll a
struggle with a great power. Nobody
doubts that the United States will
win any more than would be doubted
that a giant would conquer a dwarf.

If Congress could be convened tomor-
row and would pass a resolution calling
upon the Filipinos to lay down their
arms, and promising to deal With them
as we are pledged to deal with the

States had shown devotion to liberty
and justice that was the glory of the
nineteenth century civilization. Would
anybody presume upon this exercise of
true greatness to try to run over this
country and conquer it? Nobody Is
silly enough to believe so. Then
why do we refuse to end the
war i'm manner honorable to our
Unfortunately the Democrats have not
the power today to prevent the repu-
diation of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence and the Monroe Doctrine. But,
so far, there is no censor upon Ameri-
cans at home, and the Democrats are de-
termined that the republican form of
government handed down by the fathers
shall not be converted into one of inn
perialism and militarism without their
earnest and vigorous opposition. When
the people understand that, instead of
being devoted to the flag as is claimed,
the administration is using the flag to
give syndicates rich pickings in distant
lands, they will repudiate the prostitu-
ton of the flag which for an hundred
years has waved only over sovereigns,
and been the inspiration of lovers OF
liberty the world over.

yesterday morning, having caught it
in Beatty's pasture just north of the

gray and coyote, and OF good size.
Three grey hounds (green dogs con-

chase and bloody fight. The boys,
in attempting to keep in the chase,
let their team run away, Sam Crockett
