CUBAN RAILROAD REPORT.
The Canadian Pacific Official Says I
liz Untrue.

MONTREAL, June 2o.-L. A. Hamilton,
land commissioner of the Canadian Pa
cifc Railway Company. has returned from
Cuba. My trip has altogether been given
to prospecting the Cuban timber and min
eral fields. and it has not been in connec-
ton with any railway enterprise" said
Mr.. Hamilton. when spoken to regarding
his protrac:ed stay in Cuba.
This dispels the theory current month
ago that Mr.. Hamilton was in the Province
of Santiago as the representative Of
gigantic railroad venture, which was to be
projected by Sir William Van Horne. Re-
earding his opinion Of Cuba's mineral
wealth and the result of his mission Mr..
Hamilton had nothing to say for publica-
ton. However. he is greatly impressed
with the fertility and general aspect of
the interior. He crossed the island on
horseback, and is enthusiastic in his idea
of Cuba's future as an agricultural produce
ing territory. Already the principal cities
have been transformed through the infiu-
ence of American occupation.
"Havana's thoroughfares are quite as
well kept as are Montreal's Streets" says
Mr.. Hamilton. Speaking Of immigration,
Mr.. Hamilton anticipates a diversion of
many southern European emigrants from
continental North America to Cuba.

The Hon. Rowland Blennerhassett Ma
hany. who formerly represented the Buff
falo district in the House at Washington,
seems to regard the Convention as a sort
of Republican funeral. Mr.. Mahany doesn't
say that he has or that he intends to quit
the party, but is in utter despair of its fu-
ture. No he said TO a Washington friend
who met him at the Walton this morning,
Il am not here as a delegate. Indeed. am
glad that / am not officially connected

men who are running the show out a. the
Exposition Building will have cause to re-
greet their connection with it or my name
is not Mahany. Bryan is going to sweep
the country, and after that we shall hear
no more Of Mark Hanna and the rest of

land Blennerhassett Mahany strode away
sadly and lost himself and presumably his
sorrows in the throng. ]. ]. D.

Policies of Presidents.

The President of the United States is not an
autocrat, that his policy should be accepted
without question. What he says must be weighed
by the usual standards and estimated by the in
dividual conscience and judgment. His recon-
mendations allowed to have more than ordi-
nary weight because of superior advantages for
ascertaining conditions and his greater familiarity
with international affairs; but, after all, he is
never above criticism. and there is no power that
may lawfully interfere with the critic OF his pol

orally are condemning Governor Stephens, of Mis-
souri,, in severe terms. His apparent indifference
to the ontrages which are being pcrpetrated every

This wonderful era of prosperity
which the republican press is so prone
to talk about is one of the very things
that will operate to their undoing. The
wage earners are at work and there will
be no opportunity to decorate them with
badges and drive them like so many cat
tie in republican parades. It has been
done with good effect in the past, but
will not work this year unless the trusts
create an artificial panic, thing which
they are already preparing to do.
The supreme court of Illinois has de-
cided the law of that state which under
took to prohibit the use Of the United
States flag for advertising and other pur-
poses for which it is 30 generally used,
to be unconstitutional and void. The
decision says that the law is an unwar-
ranted interference with personal rights
which are guaranteed by both the feder-
al and state constitutions. It is new.
vindication of popular liberty and per-
sonal rights as protected by the consti-
tuition of Illinois. Many similar decis-
ions have emanated from that court.

to the rights of trade, the rights of priv
