INDEPENDENCE IN SIGHT,
Christmas Likely to 500 Cuba Governing
Itself

Washington, June FIT isexpected
at the war department that Cuban in-
dependence will be an accomplished
fact by neat Christmas, The next step
in order now that the Platt amend.
ment is adopted by the constitutional
convention is for that body TO take up
and pass an electoral bill which will
provide for the election of all the off,
GERS who are TO set up an Independent
government in Cuba. 1t is said here
that such bill is already framed and
is ready for submission TO the conven-
tion al any moment, 1t Is thought
that the convention can dispose OF this
measure In Il week or two and that
will complete the labors OF the body.
A period Of ninety days it is said here
must be allowed for the publication OF
the electoral act before the necessary
elections can be had
II may be necessary and probably
will be to maintain some United States
troops in Cuba after the new officials
are inaugurated and until tho Cubans
have had time to set up "a Cuban mill
tary force or gendarmerie but the
length OF this stay probably will de-
pend on the wishes OF the Cubans
themselves.

Washington, June II Consul Gem
eral Gowdy, at Paris, in a communica-
tion to the department of state,
expresses the opinion that American
coal can be advantageously placed in
competition with coal imported from
other countries in France, especially
in view of the recent imposition OF the
English export tax on that product.
If ocean transportation could be con-
sidcrably reduced, Consul General
Gowdy says, there is no doubt but that
American coal would have a great
future in France.

Changing Cuba to Civn Control.

Washington, June IS 1t Is now
learned that when the Cuban commits
sion was in Washington delegates
informed Secretary Root that they did
not think 1t would be possible to have
the Cuban government organized be-
fore February 1, owing to the fact that
certain proceedings must be had under
their new constitution. The opinion
is expressed at the war department
that there viii be little or no difficulty
in effecting change from American
military control to Cuban civil control.
The civil service which General Wood
has organized is largely composed Of
Cubans, and it is believed that the
new government will utilize this ma

Guthrie, o. r., June 10, "A, 4. Cross,
of Kansas City, Kas,, was in the city
and had with him map OF the three
new counties and the changes of coun-
ty lines in the Kiowa and Comanche
and Apache reservations, as had been
practically agreed upon by the agents
OF the land department, Mr. Cross
has been with the surveying corps since
February last, and his map shows the
big and little pastures, military, wood,
etc, reservations and proposed county
boundaries, The county seat OF the
Kiowa country will probably be the
town of Kiowa, on the Rock Island
railroad, AS previously stated, the
county seat of the Wichita country
will probably be on the Washita river
about three miles south and three miles
west of Anadarko.
In the Comanche country the county
seat will probably be four miles south
and one mile west of Fort Sill.

Of General Cables, the Filipino insur-

ROOSEVELT ON DUTY.

The wee presiden. delivered lecture
A few nights ago before III. Home
Marke, club OF Boston. A perusal OF his
remarks convinces one that he shares
with the president the tend .noy 10 apply
,hc term "du,y" 10 those things which he
desires. He says:
"For good or Tor evil, we now fini our.
yeives with nex duties in the West Indies
md new duties beyond the Pacihc. We
canno, escape the performance Of ttese
duaes. All we IN decide for ourselves
is whether we shall do them we'll or ILL.,"
The fact .ha, these duties were self
/ imposed and are ciang to in spite oi the
FAC, that they involve a violation OF
American principles. cuts no hgufe. IL
IS all the definition oil duty. According
10 Republican logic i, is very wrong to
s,ea! unless you find something which is
very valuable-,hen larceny becomes a
duty The last that you may be COM
pelled to take human life in order to get
the thing desired is lmna.erial-call 1t
duty and sin becomes virtue.
A little later on in his speech the real
secret Of the Philippine policy leaks out.
Mr. Roosevelt says:
"In developing these islands it is well
to keep steadily in mind that business is
one OF the grea, levers Of civilization. II
u immensely TO the interest Of the peo-
pie Of the islands that their resources
should be developed, and therefore it is
10 their inleres, even more then 10 ours
tha. ou. citizens should develop their
industries, The further fact that II is
our duty TO see that the development
taxes place under conditions so carefully
guarded that no wrong may come to the
islanders. mus. not bind US to the first
great fact, which is the need OF develop
men,.
The reasoning is complete. Business
is civiIizer; the Fiiipinos need civili4
ing, and we are nothing if not business.
like. Therefore, it is TO the interest Of
the Filipino that We should develop
them for their good. This is strenuous
life, and lest some might be restrained by
conscientious scruples, ths vice president
felt il necessary 70 impress upon his
hearers ,ha, "the first great fact"is the
"need Of development" The s"duty 10

under conditions so carefully guarded
that no wrong may eope to the 'slane'
ers" is simply further fact"-nos the

development"
Nowhere does Mr. Roosevelt discuss
the effect of the new pcllcy on our theory
Of government: nowhere does he attempt
to explain why a colonial system was
wrong in l776 and right now. HIS whole
argument can be summed up as follows:
We are in the Philippine islands-nc

But when he began to abuse anybody or anything 1t was no use trying to stop him. In partlcu- lar he hated Huxley's writings and de- tested all science.

Lord Kitchener has reported to the war office fresh disaster to the Brit ish at the hands of the Boers near Bethel. eastern Transvaal, in which two guns were lost, fourteen officers killed or wounded. and fifty-four men killed and 160 wounded. Colonel Ben son. in command of the British column. died of his wounds. The Roer loss is estimated at BOO General Botha was in personal command of the Boers. The attack began Oct. 30. The Brit ish maintained their position until Nov. 1. when Colonel Barter arrived with re-enforcements and forced Gen pral Botha to retire.
