CUBA.

No people of Spanish extrac-
ton have ever made q success at
governing themselves, and we do
not believe the Cubans are going
to prove an exception. Their con-
ception of liberty is identical with
that of all Spanish American peo-
Pile, and there is in the compost
ton of all of them an apparently
ineradlcable element which seems
TO doom to failure their every
effort at establishing representa-
tive government.
The convention now being held
in Havana for the purpose of fran
ing a constitution may possibly
prove a success, in so far as the &C
compllshment of its bare object is
concerned, but it will be worthless
as an index to the ability of its
members to give the island a re-
spectacle government. The man
ner in which the delegates COM
posing 1t were selected and the
supervision now being exercised
over its sittings locate very def
nitely the source of whatever cred
liable it may achieve. If, how
ever, after this government has
withdrawn every vestige of its
authority, as we presume finally
t will, the people of the island
'emain quiet and at peace for a
ew years, and the government be
administered without the constant

The burglary of residences is be-
coming entirely too common for a
town of Greenville's modest di-
mansions. Every loafer or tramp,
white or black, should be run out
or run in. 1t occurs to the Times
that the residence portions of the
town are entitled to police protec-
ton as we'll as the business DIS
tricts.
The Greenville times. [volume] (Greenville, Miss.) 1868-1917, 1900-11-24

The party which makes a pro-
fessional waller and calamity howl
er of itself has no right to expect
to carry an election for anything.
The party which depends on hard
times and misfortune to give II
victory deserves neither respect
nor support. Those leaders who
are saying, ''times are not going
to be always good, just wait till
the country gets hard up, and we
will show you a victory" are do
ing all In their power to make the
Democracy a hard times party,
dependent solely upon calamitous
conditions tor success. 1t has al
ready too much soreheadism in its
management.

IS IT COMING TO THIS ?

Among the various and sundry
plans of salvation now being
thrust upon those burdened with
perpetuating Democracy upon this
moral vineyard, two, at least, are
worth passing notice. The Hon.
George +. Washbnrn, sometime
leader OF the Bryan forces in
Massachusetts, and, incidentally,
holder of the corollary job of pres
ident of the National Peoples
Party" claims that the recent
campaign was "a contest of con-
science against capital" He also
characterizes it as ''the greatest
struggle for human rights since
the days Of Jackson or Lincoln"
Mr.. Washburn says that ut IS
beyond the range of human prob
ability that Bryan will again be-
co ne the candidate for mot of the
Democratic party. But he can
lead to victory new party, con-
Quoted on safe and conservative,
yet progressive lines. We must
have a complete reunion of reform
forces" To accomplish this end
he proposes the unification OF the
"Bryan Democrats, Bryan Repub-
licans, Populists and other smaller
bodies" into "a new party"
The other promoter glories in
the euphonious appellation of John
Gilbert Shanklin and comes to us
under the label "a Democratic
leader in Indiana" Mr.. Shanklin
delivers himself as follows: my
feeling Is that tho party should at
once invade the field of Socialism.
1t should declare for the initiative
and referendum, for government
ownership of all public utilities,
for bimetalism, for an income tax,
and for the election of United
States Senators aud other officers
of the government by direct vote
Of the people. This would be to
sacrifice certain element of the
Democratic Parry, but it would
gain largely in all parts of the
country"
1t is perceiveable' at a glance
that it is only necessary to COM
bine the ideas of these two gentle
men to produce most effective
scheme of reorganization" Let
Mr.. Washburn's proposed gather
ing simply adopt Mr.. Shanklin's
platform and the trick is accom-
plished; if, indeed, this has not
been already practically done twice
in the recent past. 1t is pitiful-
the thought that the party which
claims Jefferson for It's founder
has SO fallen from its high estate
as to become an object of solicitude
to such mountebanks as these-has
reached plane where such quacks
may caucus on It's future.

E UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA, NOV. Is
The Virginia football delegation, including
the members Of the Varsity eleven and
substitutes, left here at 4:45 this after
noon over the Chesapeake and Ohio Rail
way for Richmond, where Ut Broad-Street
Park tomorrow afternoon will OCCULT the
great game with the gridiron warriors
from Sewanee. The players, more than
thirty strong, were accompanied oy
Coaches Hoxton and Cooke and Physical
Director Lambeth. and appeared to be IN
good condition, with the exception OF
Hnsllell, right guard. and Bride, right
end The former has not appeared at
practice since the game with Carolina,
owing to an injury to his hip. 1t is
thought. however, that he will be in to-
morrow's game. Bride, who was sick
when he entered the game in Norfolk last
Saturday, has not yet enurety feco'ereo.
and after yester6ny's hard practice he
came near colapsing before he could reach
the gymnasium. He may not enter to-
1norrow's game at all. In case he does
not. Harris will have charge of left wing.
Tue practice yesterday-the last before
the Sewanee gGme, and the last: of the
season of 19lo-was pretty stiff After the
usual drill in signals, the regulars were
lined up against the scrubs and the en-
sagement lasted until nearly dark. Three

sprintinr thirty-five yards across the goal

AT the close of the afternoons work the
members of the Varsity team gathered
and gave three hearty cheers for the
scrub eleven. The latter, who had by this
time nearly reached the gymnasium.
turned back and gave the yell, with three
cheers for the Varsity. This exchange of
compliments was a fitting close to the
seasons practice work.
Never before at this Institution has a set
of substitutes worked with more willing
ness and shown better college spirit than
those of the present session. Ever since
the opening of the season these men have
appeared regularly on the campus day
after day and, even after all chances to
make the Varsity ilGd fled, have stood all
sorts of hammering and hard knocks at
the hands Of the regulars. All college
applauds their work in developing the
Varsity and has nothing but praise for
them.
What about the rooters2 Oh! yes. they
are going to be on hand. Some of them
left on the noon train, to-day, md others
went along with the team. The majority
of them, however will go down on the
football special. which leaves here a 1:45
tomorrow morning. 1t is estimated that
fully three hundred students will be on
the train, which makes only one stop. and
that at Gordonsville. a large delegation
from the city Will accompany the boys and
help cheer them on to victory. Nearly all
the merchants have agreed to close their
