the administration has not as yet adopted
foreign policy.
Let us see The president. al the COM

Spain. He fought the war with The CO.

extended American contro. was neg0tiat-
ed by commission representing both the
Republican party ana the Democratic

votes representing al, three Of the par-
ties. So stands the record today, and all
three Of the parties have helped 10 make

When congress meets the president will
submit the case TO that body. Any fore
cast Of his recommendations is necessa-
rily guesswork, but there is no risk in the
prediction that he will not propose the
return to Spain OF a single foot of the
ground taken, or the sale of single foot
of il to any foreign power. He will prob
ably ask for legislation for the govern
ment Of the islands, and it will devo;ve
upon the Republicans, who are in the
majority in both houses of congress, 20
enact that legislation.
Then 1t will be that the Democrats and
Populists must go on record To what

should be done with those possessions7
And what do they propose with regard TO
Cuba?
The foreign policy Of this government,
TO include our new obligations and pos
sessions, Is yet to be shaped. To say,
therefore, that the Democrats and Popu-
lists will oppose the foreign policy of the
administration is simply TO range those
two parties in opposition for oposition's
sake. And therein Senator Harris makes
a mistake. The Democratic party IS
more seriously divided on expansion than
on free silver.

A Sure Enough woman. PARADISE.

The Burmese are different from other
Eastern women. Burmah is a woman 5
paradise. There is no necessity TO have
women's rights associa tons. y woman
is the equal of a man. There are no
harems, and no restrictions TO love-mak-
ing, except Irritation and kissing, which
are indecorous. All the business Of Bur
nah is done by the women. while the
men stay at home to smoke and mind
the babies. Every woman has a shop
of some sort, and when her husband IS
not kind she gets a divorce. She is prob
ably better off than she was before. In
deed, the Burmese woman has far the
best of il. Yet when she goes to the
pagoda 1t is always her wish that in her
next existence she will be a man. The
Burmese woman is petite. and. though
at first her features seem strange and are

The Cry of the Dreamer.

I am tired Of planning and toiling,
In the crowded hives Of men;
Heart-weary Of building and spelling,
And spelling and building again,
And I long for the dear old river,
Where I dreamed my youth away
For a dreamer lives forever.
And a toiler dies in a day.
am sick Of the snowy seeming
OF a life that is half lie,
OF the faces lined with scheming
In the throng that hurries by,
From the sleepless thoughts endeavor
1 would go where the children play
For a dreamer lives forever,
And a thinker dies in a day.
I can feel no pride, pity
For the burdens the rich endure:
There is nothing sweet in the city
But the patient lives of the poor.
Oh, the little hands too skillful,
And the child-mind choked with weeds,
The daughters heart grown willfuI.
And the fathers heart that bleeds.
No, no; from the streets rude hustle.
From the trophies from mart and stage,
I would fly to the woods low rustic
And the meadows kindly page.
Let US dream as of yore by the river,
And be loved for the dream Away
For the dreamer lives forever,
And the toiler dies in day.

Ente of Capt. NiIIaIon.

Santiago de Cuba, March IL
1t was reported here this afternoon
that the body of Capt. Villalon,
who commanded the Spanish tor
pedo boat destroyer Pluton, which
was sunk in the destruction of Ad-
miral Cervera' 5 squadron. has been
found in a sitting position in an
arm chair in a cave about mile
from FL Morrow, to the westward. d.
Those who bring the news suggest
that his sailors propped him in the
chair when wounded and then left
him to his fate. For many days a
careful search was made for Capt.
Villalon's remains, but nothing
was ever found to indicate where
or how he died.

Damage Claims Are Filed.

Washington, D. c., March IL
The Department of State has re-
ceived claims to the amount of
$2l 900, 900 on account of prop
erty destroyed in Cuba belonging
to American citizens, and also on
account of injuries sustained by
citizens for which pecuniary in
demnity is sought. The peace
treaty expressly provided that the
United States and Spain should
assume liability for all such claims
preferred by their respective citi-
zens. Therefore, the United States
government is probably chargeable
for all the damages sustained by
Americans through Cuba by either
insurgent or Spanish troops, and
IN the case of some plantations
owned by American citizens these
losses were very heavy.
Congress made no provision for
the settlement of these claims, so
the State department is at present
unable to do more than merely file
them. 1t is the purpose of the
department, when Congress meets
again, to call attention TO the
treaty obligations assumed by the
United States toward these claim
ants, and to suggest that some
means of settlement be provided,
either through commission or by
reference to the court of claims.

Indian Land Claims.

Washington, D. c., March IL
Attorney William J. Scott, of X.
c., Mo-, is in the city to look after
the interest of clients who have
suits with respect to land claims
in the Indian Territory pending be-
fore the Supreme Court.
The Indian law Of agnatic re-
lationship," said Mr.. Scott, has
led to many complications in land
titles. The tribes have made their
treaties with Uncle Sam. Then
there are the individual land titles,
and, in addition, the white man,
by marriage, comes in for his share.
Just now strange case is pending
in the United States Supreme
Court. 4 white man married a
squaw and deserted her within an
hour and half after the marriage
ceremony. The squaw obtained a
divorce, and the man then married
a white woman by whom he has
several children. The question is
whether this entire family of whites
is entitled to the citizens share of
land. Ordinarily this would be
the case, but there is Ckoctaw
statute that when a white man
deserts a squaw, he, or his white
family, shall rot be entitled to
land; but by the treaty made with
the United States in 1868 the whites
are given all the privileges of the
red man, and. as the latter cannot
lose his citizenship by deSerting his
squaw, the validity of the statntt
is questioned. If the squaw haC
died there would be no doubt as tC
the citizenship of the children o.
the second wife. y

The Davis Road.

The officials of the new road,
Arkansas Texas and Mexican
Central, were here the first of the
week consulting with our citizens
in regard to the road and what we
were doing toward getting it to
come here.
They make formal proposition
that if bonus of SIG. 600 was rails
ed, and right of way given to Sandy
creek, the trade would be closed
and work started at once to con-
struct the road.
The proposition was favorably
received and has been accepted by
the committee, the only thing it
lacks to complete it is the signing
up of notes and papers by those
donating. The soliciting commit
tee is still hard at work and sue
ceeding beyond expectations. They
are also having the notes filled out
and if the citizens rally to their
support as they anticipate, the fin
ishing touches to the trade will be
completed in a day or two and
dirt throwing begin at once.
The News thinks that by next
issue we can announce the full de-
tails of the trade have been con-
summated and the work of con-
struction begun. n.-Davis News.

Building in Muskogee.

This morning a Times reporter
interviewed several of the men who
own lots in the burnt part of MS
kogee. We find that arrange
ments have been made by nearly
all of them to rebuild. The build
ings will be of brick and stone and
two stories high. This will give
quite an improved appearance to
the town. Before, most of the
buildings were of wood and many
of them of very inferior construc-
ton. By a general understanding
of the lot holders they have agreed
to grade the lots and streets to a
uniform grade, and every arrange
ment will be made looking to the
convenience and cleanliness, and
sanitary rules will be strictly OBJ
served. The block between Main
Court House street will have two
alleys; one viii be 20 feet wide
just north of the English block,
running east and west, and the
other will be u feet wide running
north and south. This is follow
ing out the suggestions lately ad-
vocated by the Times, and will be
an important item when it comes
to loading and unloading freight
and fighting fire. .--Muskogee Times.
