THE U. S. AND CUBA.
The Benefit Of Close Relations With This
Country.

Review of Reviews: 1t is well
known that the United States govern
ment, in ordering the election last
month of Cuban constitutional con-
vention, entertained the lively hope
that this body would see the propriety
of arranging for extremely intimate
relations between Cuba and the United
IStates-relations which, while leav-
| ing ordinary affairs of internal govern
ment wholly to the Cubans, would
place external affairs under the eagis
of the United States We must, in all
sincerity, agree with Senator Bever-
idege that it would be very unfortu-
nate for Cuba to have our American
school administration withdrawn at
this time While it is our further
conviction that we owe it to ourselves
to retain a permanent supervision of
Cuban sanitary affairs, with a view to
protecting our Southern States against
yellow fever and cholera. Cuba needs
five years more of the present regime
under General Wood, after which it
ought to have perhaps ten years of
territorial government like that of
Oklahoma or New Mexico; and then
it ought to be admitted as sovereign
state into the Union. But Mr.. Nc
Kinley is in no way responsible for
the absurd and mischeivous pledge
made by congress on the eve of our
going to war, to the effect that we
were not going to annex Cuba. 1t is
as ridiculous to think that we are
really doing a good thing for people
who live in Cuba by ordering them to
adopt constitution and run an indie
pendent government as to think it an
act of generosity to shove a handful
of men, women and children off to
shift for themselves in a small open
boat in mid-ocean, when they might
just as well have been comfortable
and safer on board big steamer.
Undoubtedly, there are many intelli-
gent Cubans who think it best that the
island should have it's independence
first, and should then seek annexation
on it's own free motion Under all
circumstances, there is much to be
said in favor of this view. There is
Just now rgeat irritation in Cuba over
that part of the war department call
for the convention which makes it the
convention's duty ''to provide for and
agree with the government of the
Unietd States upon the relations to
exist between that government and
the government of Cuba. The
Cuban leaders took great interest in
the election of the delegates, but pro-
badly not more than half of the regis
tered voters attended the polls. The
convention will include some of the
ablest men in Cuba, and it's sessions
will begin at Havana on Monday.

BRYAN AND AGUINALDO.
The Latter Hopes His Friend Will Be
Elected President.

The Chicago correspondent of the
Minneapolis Tribune, had an inter
view with p S. Kellogg, assistant sur
geon U. S. A, who is just home from
the Philippines, after an extended stay
there. The doctor says:
Before the insurrection, met one of
Aguinaldo's aide de camps named
Zealzote, who accompanied me to
Malolos, where l had talk with
Aguinaldo About year ago Zealzote,
with other leaders in the late insur-
gent army, laid down their arms and
refused to have anything more to do
with the instruction. He told me that
Aguinaldo was backing on Bryan s
election, and was making all the trou-
BILE he could, hoping it would favor
his candidacy The better class of
Filipinos would like the present trou-
BILE to cease. A large part of the ter
ritory is already pacitied, and out of
500 towns $50 are pacifed, and the is
lands better patrolled at the present
time than they were under $50 years
of Spanish rule. Manila is peaceable,
and policed by LOO native police.
Other cities are equally as well pro-
tected by native police, only about 5
per cent of the force being Americans.
Aguinaldo is looting and plundering
his own people and carrying on bush
whacking methods. His only hope is
in the election of Bryan, and if he is
defeated that will end Auginaldo and
the insurrection. Our new posses
sions are enjoying twice the commerce
they did three years ago. The in
habitants are anxious for annexation,
and the better class of people have no
sympathy for Aguinaldo.

ON BRYAN'S HEAD
That is Where Gen. Lew Wallace Places
Responsibility for Philippine Trouble.

A dispatch from Charlottesville,
Ind, says that in speech at a political
meeting there, Gen. Lew Wallace,
who has been unalterably opposed to
McKinleyism, declared for the presi-
dent, stating that he would support the
entire ticket. He denounced Bryan
ism as responsible for the continuance
of the Philippine war and every drop
of American blood shed there. He
said:
shall vote for Mckinley because
the thought of the election of Bryan is
abhorrent to me for several reasons
In the first place l hold the man in
sincere, for no candidate can take
nominations from three parties with
out intending to fool some one in case
of his election.
In the next place, Mr.. Bryan's finan-
cial policy is one which, if put in
effect, would bring disaster and ruin
on the country. Free silver is men
ace to the business interests of the
country.
Finally, am opposed to Mr.. Bryan,
as I hold him directly responsible for
the death of every one of the brave
American soldiers slain in the Philip
pines. 1t is the encouragement held
out to the rebels by Mr.. Bryan and
others of his ilk that keeps up the
struggle.
The war was over, but the sympathy
and promises held out by Mr. Bryan
have caused the fighting to break out
afresh and it will from this time un-
til concluded be fought with more dis
aster to our boys, for they have been
slowly and surely teaching their ad-
versaries how to fight. For each man
who falls here, be he inspired by the
sense of duty or the love of war, Mr..
Bryan is responsible.
The thought of electing such man
as this to the presidency is utterly re-
pugnant.
