Havana, Feb. 4.-The news OF Gen.
Maxine Gomez acceptance of the pro-
posals of President Mckinley, through
Robert l., Porter, the presidents spe-
cial commissioner. has not yet been
thoroughly weighed in this city. The
Cuban leaders seem uncertain for the
moment whether 10 support Gen. Co
mez or criticise him. Public opinion
has been wrought up TO demand and ex-
pect a larger payment. Some OF the
Cuban major generals who have not been
consulted may strongly disapprove of
an agreement which gives them mi

Washington, Feb. 7. - The treaty of
peace negotiated between the commits
sioners of the United States and Spain
at Paris was on Monday ratified by the
United States senate, the vote being 81
ayes 10 "a nays, or one vote more than
the two-thirds majority necessary TO Sc
cure senatorial concurrence in treaty
document. The vote was taken in ex-
ecutive session, and until the injunc-
ton of secrecy was removed the result
was supposed to be private; but the vice
president had no more than announced
the figures before senator's rushed out
Of every door leading from the senate
chamber, declaring that the treaty had
been ratified. Some made the mistake
OF stating that there were three votes
10 spare. There was in fact only one
vote more than was necessary-the bal
loting resulting 81 ayes 10 % nays.
In advance Of the voting speeches
were made by Senator's Ross, Money
and Fairbanks.

self, like the treaty, commits us to no

THE proposition to name the new
park "Helen Gould Square" is an
eminently proper one. The name fav-
ored by an overwhelming majority OF
those who took the trouble to express
their sentiments through the HER
AIDS coupon-"Sam Houston Square"
met with very general approval, and
would Seem to be a very appropriate
name. But now that it is suggested
that Helen Gould, whose devoted SER
vice t o the American volunteers dur
ing and after the war with Spain call
ed forth the sincere admiration OF the
whole nation, should be asked to per-
NIT her name to. be used for Dur new
park, it is likely hat many of those
who before favored Houston will now
throw their influence. toward Helen
Gould. 1t would seem to be especially
fitting that the name Of a woman
should be given stO the park, and the
HERALD for one will cordially approve
either of the two names suggest

THERE is manifest more and more OF
q tendency among the American peo-
pie to appeal to the law making bodies
for a new law every time they discover
anything going wrong. Moral
reforms can be worked
out by legislation alone. The
whole system of law is based on
the proposition that what is understood
to be for the greatest good of the ma
jority should be enforced throughout
the community. individuals q never
be converted through the law, individ-
ual abuses can never be corrected
through the law, and it is a great mis-
take to multiply the number OF laws,
already too large. which operate to in
terfere with the personal freedom OF
the many because the few deem them
selves too weak to control themselves.
1t isn't more avs we need, but more
conscience; not more cOmpulsion, but
more education.

THERE is no reason why the Nc
Emery resolution should have received
the slightest opposition in b senate.
The vote and the wording OF the resell
utions were printed in u dispatches
yesterday. In order to make our point
clear we here reprint the resolution
that was passed after something of a
struggle by a vote of 26 to %. The
resolutions read as follows:
ssThat by the ratification of the
treaty of peace with Spain it is not in
tended 20 Incorporate the inhabi5ants
of said islands into citizenship of
the United States, nor is it intended
to permanently annex said islands as
an integral part of the territory of the
United States; but it is the intention
of the United States to establish
on said islands government
suitable to the wants
them for local self-govern-
ment, and in due time to make such
disposition of said Stands as will best
promote the interests of the citizens OF
the United States and b Inhabitants
of said islands,"
We can see no reason why this decla-
ration cannot be endorsed by every
American. 1t ia directly in line with
the implied and expressed policy Of
the administration from the very first.
The resolutions have been very gen.
orally discussed in the press and in the
senate, but there seems to be a gen.
eral misrepresentation regarding their
real import. AS q matter of fact. even
if the resolution were a declaration of
policy. it would not be so Objectionable
as many of it's opponents try to make
it appear. But as we read the para
graph, the declaration is simply
q statement that "By the
ratification of the treaty of peace with
Spain it is not intended" etc. All the
following statements take the same
construction as the first clause, and
the whole thing is simply an exposi-
tion of the meaning of the treaty. The
treaty needed no elucidation, but some
newspapers and some senators seemed
unable to the last moment to see the
matter in it's true light. The express
sion which the resolution contains as
to a desirable policy for the future
must be considered separately from
the main fact, that the resolution it.
