Cuban Convention.

While the people of the United
States were choosing their president
for the next term, the people of Cuba,
represented in the constitutional con-
vention elected in September, were be-
ginning the work of forming an inde-
pendent Cuban government. The con-
ventiOn assembled at Havana on the
9TH, all the 81 delegates being present.
Gen. Wood, the American commander
of the department of Cuba, had ap-
pointed commission to arrange the
initial ceremonies, and at two o'clock
on the 5th he attended In person, with
his staff, and as the representative of
the president of the United States call
ed the convention to order. In his
speech Geo. Wood advised the conven-
tion that it would be its duty-"first of
all to frame and adopt constitution
for Cuba" and, when that had been
done, to formulate what "ought to be
the relations between Cuba and the
United States" He went on to direct
that"the constitution must be adequate
to secure staple, orderly and free gov
ernment," and to give assurance that
when the relations which the conven
tion thought ought to exist between
Cuba and the United States had been
lOl Ny OuO VI
the United States would "doubtless
take such action on it's part as shall
lead to final and authoritative agree
ment between the people of the two
countries to the promotion of their
common interests" In conclusion,
Gen. Wood admonished the convention
that it has "no authority to take part
in the present government of the
island" He appointed Senor Figuereo
as temporary chairman, and the chief
justice administered to the delegates
an oath of Office containing this con-
Guiding cause:
We publicly and solemnly renounce
allegiance to our compact made with
any state or nation, whether made di-
rectly or indirectly, swearing to the
sovereignty of the free and independ-
ent people of Cuba, and swearing to
respect the solution this convention
may adopt, as well as the government
established by the constitution.

Neat NuptiaIs.

The long expected and much talked
about event has happened. On We'd
nesday, Nov. 2lst, at p. m. occurred q
very pleasing marriage service by
which Yale loses one of her estimable
young ladies and Melvin profits by OuI
loss. AT that time the marriage be,
tween Mr.. James Regan, of Melvin
and Miss Mary Bettes, of Yale, was
duly solemnized. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. Fr. Cullinane, at
his residence on North Main street
After the ceremony the wedding party
returned to the brides home, where an
elegant supper was served the guests
The invitations had been limited to
immediate relatives and a few friends
but the feast was a jolly one, and will
be long remembered by the partici-
pants. In the early evening the bridal
party departed for their future home
at Melvin, where Mr.. Regan has es-
tablished himself in the drug business
Both parties in this union are well
known in Yale, and their numerous
friends all wish them much Joy and the
full consummation of their cherished
hopes, of a long, happy and prosperous
life.
A neat and quiet wedding took place
in this village Tuesday evening, Nov.
goth. The ceremony was performed
in the presence of few friends and
immediate relatives at the residence
of VIM. Stark. in north Yale, and by it
was consummated the union in mar
riage of Mr.. John Johnson, and Miss
Flora Monroe, both OF Peck, Sanilac
county, Michigan. The service was
conducted by Rev. VIM. Coulter. of this
place, the bride being former parish
ioner of the officiating minister. After
the ceremony the newly welded pair
were heartily congratulated by the as
sembled guests. Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson
expect to make their home on a farm
about three miles northwest of Peck.
The ExpOsitor but speaks for their
many friends in wishing them large
share of the good things of life.

Another Of those very quiet, but
very interesting affairs took place in
Yale this week. On Wednesday, Nov.
2lst, at the Nj. Z. parsonage on Me-
chanic street, Rev. j. b. Keith con-
ducting the service, the nuptialS of
Mr.. Simon Eshleman and Miss Lulu
Maude Weston were celebrated, and
another life union cOnsummated. The
contracting parties both reside in Yale,
and will continue to do so, occupying
the house belonging to Mrs. Taylor, on
East North street. In this residence
they expect to soon be settled and at
home to all their friends. May long
life and full share of happiness and
prosperity be their lot.

clusiveness. Sun.

THERE ought to be some way under
the law to abate such nuisance rs a
liquor sloop cruising about among the
islands and putting in at every fish
trap or little bay where there is a
chance to sell liquor to fishermen, set
tiers or Indians. Unfortunately the
law offers good deal of encourage
ment to lawlessness i'm connection with
the liquor traffic, through the restric-
tons that it imposes upon the prosecu-
ton of men whose violations Of the
liquor laws are notorious. Men who
help to support such floating iniquity
as the one reported along the west and
north shores of this island cannot be
relied upon to give evidence upon
which the chief offenders could be con-
victed in court of law. And yet the
patrons of these floating whiskey ped
dlers would probably resent any
imputation that they are not law-abid-
ing and law-respecting citizens. If the
nuisance is not abated in some way it
will be fortunate for the county if some
crime or drunken brawl with serious
consequences does not result from its
liberation.

THERE are two or three things that

THERE are two or three things that
Americanism means. In the first place
it means that we shall give to our fell
bowman, to our citizens, the
same wide latitude as to his individual
beliefs that we demand for ourselves
that so long as man does his work as
a man should, we shall not inquire, we
shall not hold for or against him in
civic life, his method of paying homage
to his maker. You are never going to
get reform, permanent and lasting
reform, by resolution. You have got
to get it by the sense of performing
duty so it appeals to the individual.
Americanism means work, means eff.
fort, means constant and unyielding
strife with our conditions, which is not
only the law of nature, if the race is to
progress, but which is really the law of
the highest happiness for ourselves

PRINCIPLE IN POLITICS.

1t is not a matter of uncommon re-
mark that there is wide difference
between some mems professions of
moral principles and their perform
ances in affairs closely related to the
application of those principles. 1t not
infrequently happens that political
party in city, county or state, under
the dictation Of bosses who have some
alterior motive for all their public acts,
suffers itself to be betrayed into the
nomination of unfit men for Office
men who are VIGOROUSLY incompetent,
immoral, incorporate, dishonest, or
otherwise unfit for the positions which
they seek to fill, but who are wanted
by the bosses because they know that
they can rely upon them in any emerg
ency to serve their personal ends.
Eight years ago one of the great
political parties in this state nominated
for the highest office in the peoples
gift man who was proven to have
betrayed an important trust and basely
defrauded the heirs Of an estate. He
was beaten at the polls as it was right
that he should be. -Four years ago the
then dominant party in the state nom-
mated for the same high Office a man
whose immortality and intemperance
were so fragrant as to be matter of
Jest and general comment in the city
i'm which he lived. He, too, was treated
at the polls rs he well deserved to, be,
for the nomination was All insult to the
great mass of citizens who respect the
moral as well as the civil law, and who
believe that it is of far more Importance
that positions of great public trust
should be filled by men of integrity
and upright character than that the
power of any political party should be
perpetuated when it fails in the observ-
ance of its first and greatest duty to the
people-the duty of nominating for
Office men of honor and good principle.
This year has witnessed in the ranks
of the Republican party one of the
most striking contests for political SUI.
premacy ever witnessed in the state.
Seattle has been the storm center OF
the fight which resulted in the defeat
of Judge Humes for the governorship,
not because he is not a man of good
character as respects his personal hab'
its, nor because he is lacking in any OF
the most essential qualifications of fit.
ness for the most important office in
the gift of the people of the state, but
because he stood in the campaign fol
the nomination as the representative
of the Doodle element in state politics
the element which has sought for years
to send to the United States senate a
man whose standing candidacy has
been associated with the lavish use OF
money, and in whose interest it has
been generally believed that the ex.
ecutive patronage of the state would be
used in the event of Judge Humes
election.
The subject might be pursued further
to "point moral and adorn a tale, ,
but it is hardly necessary. AS Lincoln
so aptly said, "You can fool some of The
people all the time; you can fool all o

If Europe cannot settle the Chinse
problem without war among the pow
ers, our civilization is but sham and
pretence. If the butchery at Pekin is
rs horrible as rumor represents it to be,
all the nations of the world should
loyalty and unselfishIy cooperate to
make such an atrocity impossible in
the future. But in order to do this it
will be necessary to convert a crusade
nominally in behalf of humanity into
sordid land grabbing, marauding ex-
petition. China should be assisted to
establish order and to maintain a gov
eminent which will protect the lives of
foreigners and give equal commercial
opportunities to all the world. But if
the powers attempt to dismember the
empire-if each is animated by cold,
calculating, sordid spirit, which seeks
advantage at the expense of the other
powers-the result may be world war
compared with which the massacre at
Pekin would be mere bagatelle. If
the nations cannot solve the Chinese
problem without flying at each others
threats, it is difficult to see wherein our
civilization is superior to that of China.
The Chinese are slaughtering foreign
ers because of racial, religious aud
political differences. If the "Christian
nations" of Europe, in order to make
che Chinaman behave himself, take his
land from him, appropriate his proper.
@.ry, and then, after the theft is com.
aitted, so to war with each other be.
ause the division of stolen goods is not
satisfactory, they prove themselves no
better than the Chinese. The cynic
who said that all civilization is merely
veneer will then be fully vindi-
ated, while the Chinaman who has
GROUNDED himself with a wall in
der that he may exclude what he
lsiders an inferior civil zation should
