Two institutions recently started In
Bangor for the benefit Of children seem
to have scored decided SUGGESTIVE
school banks and the curfew bell The
school children have caught the spirit
of thrift very generally. and many OF
them have saved considerable sums
(for children) and, what Is more inn
portant to have begun to realize the
value of money. AS an instance show
ing what the inculcation of the saw
ings idea can accomplish. II is stated
that one grocery store located across
the street from a schoolhouse used to
take in about 5000 a year from the chill
dren for candy. whereas this last year
the receipts have fallen below $50. AS
for the curfew, never before were the
streets of Bangor known to be 50 clear
of children after p. NJ. as since this
law went into effect. The police have
wide range of discretion in the en-
forcement of the law. and no arbitrary
or oppressive administration Of it's pro-
visions is expected.

T. Estrada Palma, president of the Cuban
junta in New York, feels a confidence most
fattering to the r~escuing nation. He
writes:
Il have absolute confidence In the good
faith of the American people and the pres
ent administration in regard to the fulfill
ment of the pledge of congress in favor OF
Cuban independence. ] believe that Presi-
dent Mckinley will order the gradual evacu-
alton of the island by the American army
even before a stable government has been
established.
~ feel sure that the initial step In this
direction will be taken soon, probably be-
fore the summer season commences. 1t
may be coincident with an lntimation to
the Cuban people that the time has come
for the calling of a constitutional conven-
ton.
delegates to such a convention should be
the free choice Of the Cuban people, ex-
pressed at the polls under circumstances
free from coercion in any form from any
source.
such a convention should not and would
not consider the proposition Of annexation,
but would devote itself exclusively TO the
establishment Of a government OF the peo-
pie and by the people. First, the Cuban
people should be, and | believe will be, per-
mltted to realize the fondest aspiration OF
their hearts, the enjoyment of freedom. the
consciousness OF being masters Of their own
land, their independence recognized, their
flag respected. They want to see the flag
under which they have fought and bled

only the future may decide whether they
Will be willing or not to become a part Of
this great nation and to share in its glori-
Gus destiny. Annexation Will require the
consent OF both the American and Cuban
peoples, freely expressed. Perhaps neither
wants 1t. Perhaps both want it. In any
event the sense of justice and fairness Of
the American people, and the recollection
OF their own struggle in the last century,
give assurance that we will first be granted
the desire of hearts. for which we have
offered our lives and fortunes-the indie
pendence OF our beloved land.
There is no disposition on the part Of
any individual Cuban to dominate. We all
intend to sink self in a sincere patriotism.
The Cuban people are naturally anxious
and impatient to see the day of their visible
freedom. Should they have occasion to pro-
test against too long a continuance of the
military occupation Of the island | am sure
1t viii be in some dignined and orderly way,
which will appeal to the good judgment Of
the American people, and not in a hostile
or turbulent form. We realize that we must
prove by our conduct that we are fit and
ready for absolute self-government.
Il repeat, / have entire faith in the Amer
lean people and the government.

Bishop Potter of New York writes from
the point of view OF the clergy:
THE question Of the future of Cuba and
of our relations to that island would seem
to belong to the domains OF natural politics
and diplomacy and as such to be foreign
to those who do not make these their pro-
fession. But, under our system of govern
ment, all such questions rest finally for
their decision in the judgment of the peo-
pie, whose voice and vote ultimately deter
mine policies and choose those who are to
execute them. Under these circumstances
It is, l suppose, in order for any citizen to
express the hope that the future policy of
the United States will be in accordance with
its own pledges and its own traditions.
"As to these there can be no doubt. We
have explicitly declared our purpose in in
tervening between Spain and Cuba to have
been to maintain the right Of the Cubans to
be free and to determine their own form Of
government. Whether in their efforts TO do
this they proceed in accordance with our
notions of what they ought to do Is an ut
terly irrelevant question. So long as they
do not organize a government hostile to us
It would seem to be their business and not
ours to decide what and how they organize.
Any endeavor to coax, wheedle or coerce
them into being annexed to the United
States would be equally hypOcritical ana
dishonest. And this not only because Of
our pledges, but because of our traditions.
These have affirmed, from the beginning,
when We appealed for their yindication to
the world, that a people, whether strong or
weak, eastern or western, had a right to be
free and to determine under what condi-
lions their freedom should be exercised. Let
us not give these traditions the lie! True
enough it is that other nations have made
might to be right, and. having interfered in
behalf OF the oppressed, have remained to
convert one form Of Involuntary seryitude
into another, freeing mems bodies perhaps
from the hand OF the oppressor, but not their
wills, their lives or their property from the
coercion of an external rule, If We can con-
sent to this then we tell the world that We
do not believe in our own principles, or,
rather, that we have no principles, only ex-
pediencies.
For myself. / hope better things Of the
republic, Let our stronger hands lit Cuba
to its feet, teach II how to stand alone and
10 rule itself, and then-let us take them
Off! That would be an example OF majestic
and self-restrained benefcence worthy OF a
great people. HENRY C. POTTER"
Omaha daily bee., 1899-04-16

The optimism of Wall street with a bull
market on radiates in the words of Henry
Clews:
II put no stock whatever in the indefinite
and un-fathered rumors to the effect that
1t is the secret purpose of the American
government to prolong on some preteXt the
military occupation of the island of Cuba
until the Cuba people, in despair of secur>
ing relief in any other way, ask for annexa>
ton.
The island will be evacuated by the
American troops as soon as a stable gov
eminent is established, but no sooner. or
course our government must determine
when the proper time has arrived.
"Any intimation of intended bad faith or
the part of the people comes from ire
sponsible persons for the purpose of foment-
ing discord for political effect or other I'LL
terror ends.
'Viewing the matter from the standpoin,
of the American investor in Cuban proper
ties it is unquestionably best that good faith
in our treatment Of the Cubans should be
scrupulously observed. So long as a stable
government of any kind is maintained in
Cuba American investors have nothing to
fear. The island can doubtless be developed
successfully under a free, recognized, stable
Cuban government, probably as well as il
under our own government. especially, as
will be the case, because it is under the
protective care of our government.
Annexation may, however, sooner or
later come. That, l think, is an after
question. I approve of letting the Cubans
have the opportunity of establishing their
own government, if possible, as promised
them. 1t may be after a large number OF
the American people have mingled with the
Cubans they may really want annexation.
This will be so if they are convinced thar
it is but for their welfare. That. of course,
remains to be seen when the question comes
up for decision.
THE first steps looking towards the es-
adjustment of a stable government in Cuba
may be taken in the near future. 1t may
be a matter Of some years first,
"In determining whether the time has
come for evacuation all signs and condi-
tions will, of course, be duly considered
such as the conduct of the Cuban people
in regard to law and order, the manner and
respect for duly elected officials, their in
dustry, etc. In short, the government
should not and will not pay any attention
TO the talk of self-appointed leaders or the
threats of excited individuals, but face tine
problem in a broad spirit. having in view
all the then existing conditions and circum.
stances. HENRY CLEWS."

w. j. Brynn's Opinion.

W. j. Bryan writes thus:
Replying to your inquiry, I would say
that good faith requires the fulfllment OF
the pledge contained in the resolution passed
by congress. We recognize the right or
the people of Cuba to be free, not in the
distant future, but now. According to the
presidents message our only purpose In
Cuba is to establish a stable and inde-
pendent government and that ought to be
done at once. Yours truly,
"W. J. BRYAN"

The senator from New Hampshire speaks
allegorically, but very much to the point:
To continue the military occupation of
cuba until the Cubans in despair ask for
annexation would be a breach of our plighted
faith and wicked.
LAS to whether annexation is desired by
the American people or the Cubans, no SEN
timent has yet developed in either nation.
'Unquestionably the Cubans should be per-
mitted to enjoy recognized independence be-
fore the question Of annexation is agitated.
Cuba will be evacuated very soon-by the
American troops simply coming away.
