General Wood, our military Governor of the
island is away from his post in aid of this antpanic

States dspossessed Spanish rule"
With all due respect to General Wood in his ca
pacity as soldier we remark that he is uttering
sense, rank, defed and gibberng nonsense.
The American people resent it. What folly to say
that assumed the duty of always making Cuba
prosperous, of always assuring profit on her staple
crops, of always filling her dinner pail Yet that is

Roosevets message on reciprocity. We think they
have read that message with their greed rather than
with their understanding The President says that
reciprocity is the handmade of protection
We all favor reciprocity, as did President McKin-
ley when and where it leaves protection unbreached
and unweakened. Otherwise it is the free
trade to us and we reject it. The precise point at
which least afford to smite protection is the
point attacked by this juna, which presents its
appetite as patriotism and comes holding out its hat
for aims. Reciprocity is the handmade of protec-

THE NEW YORK PROGRAMME.

TX THEN on the eve of the assembling OF Con-
w sress the Democratic caucus met for the
purpose of nominating candidates for the
Speakershp and other Offices, there was presented
from the New York delegation set of resolutions
outlining policy for the party to pursue in dealing
with the principal issues that to UP during
the session. AS the resolutions made no mention of
silver, member from Texas promptly moved to sub
sttute the Kansas City platform. A wrangle ensued
and then the whole thing referred to COM
mittee.
To the general public the affair appeared to be
nothing than another of those factional fights
which have become something like a regular
part of the proceedings of every Democratic meet
ing 1t was therefore passed as an incident of
no particular import and comparatively little atten-
ton paid to it.
1t appears, however, by reports from New
York. that the incident has larger significance than
appeared the surface. The resolutions which
spoken of ''the New York programme" were
of plan devised for the purpose of harmonizng
the gold and the silver wings of the party and putting
the programmes" in position where they would
have advantage all rivals in the struggle for party
control 1t seems to be conceded that the resolu-
tons were not written in Washington, but were
drawn up and discussed in New York and sent on to
Washington for presentation to the Caucus. Had it
Texas the scheme might have gone through, and
Democracy might now be halfway pledged to some
thing in the way of programme that would leave
Organism out of sight long before the next Presi-
dental election.
There was, moreover, certain amount of New
York politics involved in the programme. 1t is
stated that the scheme worked out by Tammany
politicians, though it is by means certain that
Croker dictated it. According to these authorities
the plan designed for the purpose of displacing
David Bennett Hill the leader of Democracy in
New York and consequently possible nominee for
the Presidency in 1904 Hill has repeatedly said that
at this time the Democratic party should not adopt
platform, but await Developments and had the New
York Congressman succeeded in getting the repre-
sentatives of the party in the House to accept the
programme offered them Hill would have been side
tracked and would have been compelled either to
follow the Tammany lead fall out of the Demo
cratic procession.
The scheme failed because the Southern and West
ern Democrats in Congress do not like to accept a
New York leadership. They resent the assumption
of the New Workers and are still sore because Of the
failure of New York Democracy to support Bryan.
That feeling led to the rejection of the programme
as presented to the The fight however, is
not yet over. The committee to which the caucus
resolutions referred is to report Con-
gress reassembles after the holidays and then may
hear much more OF the programme and get further
understanding of what it means and whom it is de-
signed to crush
