A DREAM.
Gen. Lees Idea of Cuban
independence.
Created Sensation by His 81. Louis
Speech.

st. Louis, Mo, Dec. 22.--Gen. w.
Fltzhugh Lee made a statement in a
speech before the Merchants Exchange
here last night which caused general
astOnlshment and created quite lit
tie comment as to the significance Of
his utterance. His sensational words
came during the course Of a speech on
Cuba and seem TO indicate that indie
pendence for the island is a dream.
Closing, he said: And now the Stars
and Stripes float over Matanzas, they
float over Ell Caney, over Morro over
Havana, and I'll tell you, on the quiet,
the flag is going to stay there"
After his speech he was asked for
an explanation and so qualified his re-
mark to take any significance as to
the administration intentions out OF
/ it. General Lee afterwards expressed
regret that he had spoken 80 freely.

Commissioner McMillen said in a
few well chosen words Tuesday even
ing that the above story was in part an
erroneous statement. Its true" he
added, that the order was in force for
a week, but that was merely to give
the operators chance to learn the art
of running the machine. Hereafter
the automobile will make trips day and
night"
Now that the automobile is to be
used day and night, regardless of the
weather, careful observer asks, what
is to be done with the horses and the
old patrol wagon? If they are not to
be sold mt once, how much better Off is
this city than 1t was, when the Board
first conceived the idea of man,lfac-
turing the automobile"
And thus does conjecture and COM
ment on the movements. of the board
continue.
The story that the Board would sell

days and nights too rough to take the
automobile out, the officers would he

Economic League Discussed "Demo.
cracy and Empire"

Judge N. D. Tibbals presided at the
meeting of the Economic League Tues
day evening. Twenty-Five members
were present, and an interesting ses-
sion was held.
Before the regular program was TAX
en- up, Judge Tibbals referred to the
failure of the committee appointed by
the League to secure through the Leg
islaturc a change in the present law
governing the Board of City Commits
sioners. He offered no criticism on the
decision of Representatives Sieber and
Scese that 1t was ''too late to pro-
cure the passage of a bill amending the
Commissioner law.
The Woman's Suffrage society sent
an invitation to the members of the
League, asking them to attend the wo-
mems convention to be held at the Uni.
versalst church April 16 and II, and
especially to be present on the even
ing of the 10th to hear Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Cats lecture.
Democracy and Empre," was the
topic for discussion. G.. Mercer Adam
editor of Self Culture, opened the dis
cussion with an excellent and careful
ly prepared paper that presented in a
broadminded way the views of those
favoring expansion by the retention of
the Philippine islands. His paper was
well received, eliciting much applause.
Mr.. Adam believes that the United
States, as a great nation, cannot es-
cape the responsibility of assisting in
governing the world. There is a flu.
ture for this country" he said, land
an obligation for 1t to so outside to un-
dertake our share of world governing"
Democracy and Empire" is the sub
ject of Il book written by Prof. Frank
lin Henry Giddings, of the Columbia
University, and Mr.. Adam referred
frequently to the sentiments expressed
by Prof, Giddings. The speaker re.
marked that democracy and empire
where conducted in the right manner
did not differ vastly. Democracy is the
governing by public opinion for the
benefit Of the masses. 'While the
United States with it's democratic gov
ernment, and its achievements, is en-
We'd by all nations" continued Mr.
Adam, "it has in measure placed u,
under the yoke Of partisan politics."
The democratic evolution in Englant
creating the present system of tina
government, was cited as wholesome
exchange for absolutism. 'ModerI
Britain is justified" argued the speak
er, ''in It's ownward move exemplifet
by present actions, and shall our coun
try. since the war with Spain, stan'
back from the affairs of nationsT
Mr.. Adam is also Of the opinion tina
even though England and Germany az
friendly to this country that the,
should not he permitted the opportun
ity of excluding the United States fror
trade with Germany or Brazil.
II believe that this country shoul
retain the Philippine islands," said MI
Adam. "We must make this countr
, mighty for peace, and this can be don
without making of 1t an empire.

speaker.
II. T. Wilson said that he didn't
think the character of their citizenship
entitled the Filipinos to become Ameri-
can citizens at present. II think that
this county should establish protec-
torate over the islands and let the
people govern themselves" he con-
cluded
Rev. j. w. King remarked 'I think
that the great American people are
held accountable for the future Of the
Filipinos. think that they drifted
into our hands by divine dispensation
of Providence" n45e XII
II think" said Rev. g. e. Keller, in
an enegetic manner accompanied by
gestures, "that the Filipinos didn't

pensation of Providence. They drift

America, and would like to see it

dear old flag, but think the stars and
stripes will look more beautiful when
they remain as emblematical Of human
rights and civil liberty.
"That government, in by mind, is
best that governs least" concluded
Mr.. Keller.
DR.. w. G. Jacobs snid that the peo-
pie of Louisiana, New Mexico and Alas
ka were acquired by the United States
in the same manner as the Tillplnos.
Hon. George w. Grouse remarked
that this country, as one Of the worlds
powers, shoul assume the responsible
ity of its power in the governing OF
the world. He wants to see the mer.
chant marine extended, and two man
of-war vessels built each year. 1--WE
need all the foreign trade we can get
he said, "and must not build a wal
around our country"
s. G.. Rogers believes in moving il

would rather see the United States an
mex the countries north and south O.
us than see it go 5000 miles away t,
acquire territory" said Mr.. Rogers
He also remarked that if England
would give as much attention to he
starving subjects in India as it dit
to the war in South Africa, the inter
ests of humanity would be extended
farther"
Editor Il. G. Reynolds replied to Mi
Rogers by saying that England is max
ing every possible effort to relieve tn
Hindoos In India from starvation. \
N. Chalker thinks that the Filipino
are smarter than the Alaskans, evel
though the former did cost but So q

r. Ell. Wright is sorry that the Unit
