IMPROVEMENT IN CUBA.

All reports and correspondents agree
thal the sanitary conditions in Cuban
cities has been so much improved since
the American occupation, that even the
natives are surprised at the bettered
health Of the country, particularly in
the larger cities and towns. 1t is noted
that the yellow fever has not vet ap-
peared in the island though it is usually
epidemic by this time of the year. 1t
will appear presently-that must be ex-
pected, for our work of cleansing has
not been thorough, but merely tenn
porary. Correct sanitation of Havana,
for instance, will take three or four
years. It's entire sewer system must be
reformed, the methods of garbage dis
and quarantine service reorganized,
house to house inspection and enforce
ment of health regulations introduced
with which we in the United States are
familiar, but which have never obtained
in Cuba-all these things must be
worked out slowly according to definite
system and with thoroughness. When
it is all accomplished it is probable that
Cuba will prove to be as healthful an
island as Porto Rico, and that even
Havana, lately the dirtiest city on
earth, will become comparatively harm
less as a health assailant.

General Anderson, the first COM
nlander in the Philippines, now sta
toned at Chicago, says he has very lit
tie respect for Aguinaldo's sincerity, He
met the man frequently and thinks he
understands him. Behind Aguinaldo is
a power that really controls the insur-
rection. 1t is the Malolos Junta, and
it's purpose lis not independence of the
Philippines nor a sincere desire for self
government; but the real motive is to
the control of the vast church proper
ties of the Spanish, the franchises, priv
ileges, rights, grants, ETC., which have
immense value, and which under the
the United States from the archipelago
and all the vast property referred to will
fall into the hands of these cunning
men, who are after loot, not indepen-
dence. General Anderson is right.
There are many evidences of the fact
which can be cited to substantiate his
view of the question. If through our
failure the islands fall away from our
control, every church property, every
railway, telegraph and other franchises,
all concessions, water rights, mining
and mill privileges, manufacturing
grants, and SO on, win fall to the Junta,
In other words, the Malolos Junta per-
ceive very clearly that victory for them

BEEF SCANDAL AFTERMATH.

The army beef scandal has dealt our
meat trade with Germany serious
blow. 1t has also considerably affect
ed us in other lines Of trade with that
country. We had reason to expect I'M
friendly legislation from the Empire
on this account, aimed at our CONNER
cial purse, for Germany is sore just
now over loss of trade due to our com
petition. But We have not much cause
for hope that it will be avoided. This
is true, however, that time, which as
suages all woes and heals wounds, will
restore the relations which the inquiry
has disturbed
There is no need to lose sleep over
the matter. Our representative at the
Court of Berlin and American CONNER
cial agents in Europe will do all that
can be done to correct false ideas Gre
ated by the inquiry, and in due time
they will succeed. We have no letters
patent upon German trade. What we
lose as the result of the inquiry we
must regain by the presentation of the
truth and by disproving the charges
that We send to Europe meat products
dangerous for domestic use.
The meat inspection measure agreed
upon by our ambassador and the I'm
perial Cabinet has, it is reported, been
rejected by the committee of the Reich
stag to which it was referred If this
is true it may be equivalent to rejection
by the body of the Legislature itself.
1t is added that the committee has pre-
pared and will report a bill bitterly hos
tile to American meat and meat pro-
ducts There is some belief in Berlin
that this bill, which is represented as
intensely radical, will not be approved
by the Government and that mod
if1cation of its harshsr provisions may
be secured.
At Washington there is some talk of
retaliation in case the bill of the Ger
man Government is rejected by the
Reichstag. But retaliation cannot do
US much early good. In time if main
tanned it would vary somewhat the
channels of trade in several important
particulars. But retaliation is an ir-
r1tant at best. We will be losers in
this whole business, though we can save
something out of the wreckage of trade
disruption if Germany insists upon a
bill providing for a system of fnspec-
ton of our meat exports impossible for
US to comply with We have greater
faith in the work that trade will set on
foot to undeceive the German public.
than We have in retaliation under the
reciprocity system.
Since the foregoing was written dis
patches have been published which con-
tam the speculation that it is now
thought that the German Government
viii be able to pass its bill through the
Reichstag, that is, the measure agreed
upon between America and GERMANY.
Ihls is surmise, and We are uninfornad
as to the basis for it. We trust that IT
is true, but confess that reading the
Berlin correspondence of reputable
American papers give us little or no
nope of such desirable outcome.

to recall the criticism made of Governor
Thomas. Under his denial and strong
disavowal it is the right thing to be

quent upon the superiority and cheap
ness of American iron and steel pro-
ducts, and by the extension of the field
for the sale of those products. The SUI
premacy of the American manufactur-
ers of iron and steel, and machinery, is
due to the superior workmanship and
greater productive capacity of Ameri-
can iron and steel workers. In this
country, too, better wages are paid for
the same class Of work, and there is a
far higher return in labor performed
than the proportionate amount of such
premium.

A CONFESSED TRAITOR.
Fresno Republican: By his own con-
| fession Edward Atkinson is traitor.
He has sent large quantities of pamph-
let's to the Philippines for the avowed
purpose of producing INSTRUMENTATION
among the soldiers To use his own
! words, he expects to- incite the kind
of INSTRUMENTATION which, l hope with
Tolstoi, will ere long pervade all armies,
to the end that criminal aggression may
be made impossible by the refusal OF
soldiers who think for themselves to
carry out orders, which are as abhor-
rent to them as they are inconsistent
with any moral, economic or political
principle"
This is rank and frank treason. II
any soldier should act as Atkinson adj
vises him to act, he would be shot, and
ought to be shot, and if the situation
were more serious and the instigation
were successful, the inStigator would
be hanged and ought to be hanged

ENGLISH FEARS.

San Diego Union: According to
cable letter from London, the
British public is becoming seriously ex-
ercised over Americas growing compe

world. In view of the facts of the case
the term growing competition" is GER
tainly very mild. The truth is that
purchasers Of machinery and manu-
featured iron and steel pass by Ger
many and Great Britain and come to
the United States to place their orders.
The United States has practically re-
versed its position in the importation
and expectation of manufactures of iron
and steel during the past twenty years,
and 1t is now far in the lead of the
other manufacturing nations of the
world in that branch of industry. In
1850 this country imported iron and
steel manufactures to the value of SI1,
266,699, and exported products in the
same line to the value of $14, ZIG, 524. In
1898 the United States imported only
ST., 626,431 worth of iron and steel and
their manufactures and exported So
406, $50 worth. In other words, Ameri-
