GEN. WOODS GREAT DIFFICULTY.
Gen. Wood, at Havana, is naturally be-
ing watched with the deepest interest
everywhere in the United States. 1t Is Il
tremendous work in itssway, and the diff
culties which beset its successful eXecu-
ton are not comprehended by any but
those who know the conditions which at
tend his undertaking. s...;..
1t is not as if the Cubans had had even
the slightest preliminary training in the
methods or principles of representative
government The only experience of Or
DERBY or responsible authority in public
matters ever reached by Cuban of this
generation, save what he might have had
under Spanish officials, was under the sway
of Gomez, and in the camp of Gomez mil
itary justice was the only rule of con-
duct.
The prime evil with which Gen. Wood
ton, and the utterly dim notion which
alone everybody possesses of honesty in
governmental matters. Corruption was
universal The poor of Cuba had come to
regard 1t as a privilege which the official
class enjoyed, and which was exercised
of necessity and without casting the
slightest moral stain on those who prac-
ticed or those who benefited by it. Even
the bench was saturated with corruption.
Justice was openly bought and sold, and
it still remains a belief among the Cuban
people that it will always be so, as it
has always been. This is the greatest
evil of ALL" says Gen. Wood. SIT is the
hardest to get rid of. This corruption in
the courts is what has kept foreign cap

thing several times to get title. In the
prisons are men who have been there
five years awaiting trial for what may
have been a minor offense.'
The blind acceptance of corruption as a
necessary accompaniment of Office hold
ing is something which outsiders cannot
understand. Yet it fairly pervades Gu

OF that party for president If 1t is ten
dered him. The following circular let

as follows:

that If the Bryan Democracy, when they
meet in national convention, reaffirm the

Populist who loves the principles he adj
vocates to lerd his aid to thwart the de-

details of this plan are in part:
That when our national convention

platform with direct legislation as the
paramount issue, nominate w. j. Bryan

Mr.. Bryan's friends that he will accept
the nomination. and some Southern Pop

will indorse the platform and It's candi-
dates-that Mr.. Bryan's friends will go
before the national Democracy with a
demand for the Endorsement of the ac-
ton Of the Populist convention, and 1T is
argued that they will not refuse. In
the event that they do Mr.. Bryan may
refuse the nomination at the hands OF
