wASHINGTON'S UNIVERSITY.
A Plea for Its Establishment in til
Capital City.

~ fIed Tor lts establishment In the
Capital City.
Charles W. Dnhnsy In the Forum.
On tho 18th of last December just 100
years had elapsed since the death of the
father of our country. In his will he left
fund for the establishment of a national
university In the capital city Of his found
ing. Ills grateful people have erected many
MONUMENTS to commemorate his noble
deeds in war and his nobler example in
peace. they have set up statues In all parts
Of the country: they have given his name
to the national capital. to one sovereign
state and to many counties and towns;
they have erected at the seat OF govern
ment Il colossal shaft Of white marble-iit
symbol of the purity and dignity of his
character. but they have still to complete
the monument appointed by Washington
himself in his last will and testament. To
this memorial, the only one, apparently, he
ever really desired. and which he consid-
cred most necessary for the permanence
and progress of the government he had es-
tsblished, Washington devoted much
thought during the years of his civilian
service. The time seems to be fitting one
to consider his plans for the university,
which he designed to be the monument to
his finished work, and at once the safe
guard and browning glory Of the republic.
What Is wanted now is not another gem
lished institutions of the country, but a
graduate university. for science first. with
schools. possibly, for the social sciences,
Jurisprudence. international law and espe-
cially for training diplomats and consuls.
The place to begin Is with the department
OF science, for which we have nearly all
the laboratories and men ready in Wash
ington. An actual canvass shows that the
men and facilities are here. and that we
could begin the instruction In a department
of science within month, if only the build
irg, central organization, and g. few thou
sand dollars for current expenses were pro-
vided. The George Washington Memorial
Association is collecting the fund for the
central building. Is it possible that this
great people cannot provide the small an
nual amount necessary to inaugurate the
first department of. Washington's UNIVERSE
ty, the only monument he desired?
Is not the present time, which marks at
once the anniversary of the death of the
father of his country and the beginning
of Il new century of progress for that coun-
try. the proper time to open to all the peO
pie of these United States the university
which Washington founded? We are de>~
lighted to know that these questions are
now being considered by a committee of
the regents of the Smithsonian Institution.
May We not hope that this institution,
which has already been the parent of sew
eral great national establishments of sci
euce. will begin its work in the new
fury by organizing this the greatest estab-
lshment Of them all and opening. not
merely to America, but to all the world,
the university OF the United States

States. but even the American governor
would soon find himself useless.
The Ctloans are better aware today OF
the Objectionable features Of their past and
present government than are the Amert-
cans. and better able to correct the wrongs
without doing injustice to the people at
system of government Of this country"
What has caused the trouble In the past
charger
"Too indefinite lines between the civil and
the military power" was the prompt re-
ply.
General Brooke" the speaker continued
was not unpopular with the Cubans. He
military in his way Of thought. but he gave
little or no offense to the Cuban people.
General Ludlow's troubles can all be traced
to two things. One Of these 1 have stated.
and that is, the confusion existing between
the civil and military authority which has
been In his hands. The other cause Of his
trouble Is a statement he gave out when
he was in Washington some time ago to the
effect that he did not believe the Cubans
were capable of self-government. He was
rather popular with the Cubans before, but
by that saying he alienated the friendship
of many. I think all of his troubles have
come from these two things. and they are
getting rather serious of late. When the
friendship of people is lost they are quick
to find fault General Wood has made ne
mistakes as vet. He Is a strong man, full
pose of giving the Cubans a government
OF their own according to the American idea
OF what that government should be- The
Cubans have considerable confidence in
him, though they are beginning to think
that he did not come hero to give them
freedom from the control of the United
states quite so quickly as they thought he
would"
A Party Forming.
Is there any possibility Of party form
ing in Cuba which will demand the with
drawai Of the United States from Cuba be-
fore the United States government thinks
1t Is proper to withdrawn
Such a party is already in existence. It
Is small as yet. 1t may grow to great size.
FOR the Cubans will In time become restless
under American control, and demand free
dom of the kind they fought for and which
the Americans have not yet given them. l
do not believe this party would ever lead to
an armed conflict between the United States
and Cuba. but If 1t did not accomplish its
purpose there might in time come a great
agitation and consequent disorder which
would undo all accomplished by the Amer
leans during their occupation Of the isle nd.
This constitutes, In my opinion, the prin-
cipal and perhaps the only question at issue
The United States must let Cuba rule her
self without so much Interference and
must shortly announce a definite plan for
the complete Independence of Cuba If
neither of these things come to pass within
reasonable time there Is trouble ahead for
both countries, and the difficulty is that
there Is vast difference CT opinion between
the Americans and the Cubans as to what
constitutes reasonable time
