to construct a fitting me-
Il mortal to William McKin-
ley. 1t is intended to place
this memorial in Nay Aug park, pos
sibly at its entrance. Everybody visits
the park many times each season.
Thousands of eNCursionists from both
up and down the valley have already
been attracted to it, and the park is
hardly yet out of the stage cf infancy.
Year by year, as the park shall develop,
the number of its frcquenters will in
crease. II will soon become the great
popular resort of Northeastern Penn
sylvania
Fifty thousand dollars expended in
the park ON gateway, statue or other
form of memorial to the beloved mar
tyr president will not only pay proper
tribute to his memory but also popu-
larize and advance the interests of the
park, thereby insuring a double bene-
tit Al Saturday evenings meeting of
the Mckinley Memorial association,
composed of citizens representing every
part and element of the community, the
disposition to select the park as the
site of whatever memorial shall finally
be agreed upon was unanimous. This
was undoubtedly a fair reflex of public
sentiment.
At this meeting a house to house cam
Nass i'm behalf of the memorial fund
was authorized and as soon as possible
will he instituted. This will carry the
proposition directly to the citizens OF
city and county. Are they willing tc
contribute 81 apiece as a token of re.
spect for the life and example of the
greatest American statesman anc
Christian gentleman of our time? Ar,

of free government and erect chao

average of convictions by court-mar-

and exquisite taJ; we could not come
up to their ideals of what constitutes
the irreproachable, fine gentleman.
Therefore they drew aloof, looked on
superciliously as. we tried to the best
of our ability and unsenshly to put
their confused affairs into shape, and
with struggling of shoulders LETT us
to our fate. That was when most of
them took It for granted that our
promises Of independence, like the fine
phrases of Spain, were to be without
practical meaning.
But lately q change has come over
the spirit of their dreams. Events
have shown clearly that 1t is the
American intention soon to turn the
task of governing Cuba over to the
Cubans. Forthwith there is a rush TO
headquarters to get us to do the hard
work before we go. There is the franz
ing of a tariff law, for instance. 1t Is
full of dynamite and needs handling
with care. The Cubans are afraid to
tackle It. Therefore they beseech
General Wood and send delegates to
him to do the job for them; to frame
the schedules and put them into opera
tion in virtue of the sovereign power
that the United States now wields, so
that when the Cuban republic sets up
for itself its statesmen will have the
main structure OF revenue legislation
already built and in use, and will need
simply to revise a few incidental de-
tails.
Very wisely both President Roosevelt
and General Wood have respectfully
declined to anticipate a duty so OBJ
viously Cuban. The property owning
interests of that island have made
their bed and must lie in it, They
have wanted or pretended to want
self f-govornment and they are to have
It. This means they must face the re-
sponsiblities as we'll as the glories; in
other words, they must work out their
own political salvation, If necessary,
in fear and trembling.
