ORNAMENTS ON THE LAKES

There is provision in the treaty be-
tween the United States and England
whereby. both countries agree not TO
keep war vessels in the inland waters
between their respective possessions.
Those responsible for this clause I'M
derstood that without such an agree
ment each country would maintain a
fleet on the lakes. with no material ad-
vantage to either, and that mutual
agreement whereby this might be pre-
vented. would leave the rights of both
protected.
For the last several years there has
been an effort TO have the treaty abro-
gated. the purpose being to encour-
age shipbullding in such cities as Buff
falo and Chicago, Certain statesmen
have made much out of the languishing
industries, but IL the treaty should be
abrogated, and we should begin to
launch warships on these waters, for
every one launched, England would
have another, and soon these beautiful
bodies of water would be bristling with
useless ornaments. The purpose is
against the avowed sentiments of our
country; we stand for disarmament
only admitting its necessity as a tenn
porary expedient in order to cope with
those who do not take our view Of he
question. Certainly, then, we should
stultify ourselves by being the first to
invade peaceful waters by a feet, and
thus compel our neighbor to do like
wise.
There is no reason why the govern
ment should do a foolish and unneces-
sary thing in order to encourage an
unnatural industry Of cities of the in
terror, but IL it must be done, let these
cities build battleships for the govern
ment and afterwards blow them up in
the interests Of common-sense and hu.
manity.

CUBAN PROGRESS

General Leonard Wood. military gov.
enor Of Cuba. who is in New England
in an interview. has some interesting
things to say regarding affairs in that
island He declares that under the
modern sanitary condition, yellow fever
has not only ceased to be epidemic
but that Havana hasn't had a case this
year. The inhabitants cannot fail TO
understand the sacrifices made by this
country in purifying the pest spots OF
the island, and certainly they will moi
allow them to again come into evil
dence.
General Wood says that Cuba is an
undeveloped island, whose possibilities
are almost unlimited She is rich in
minerals, in forests, and the soil is ca
pable OF producing tropical and sub.
tropical articles in great abundance. A
stable government will mean the in
vestment OF great deal of capital, and
the introduction OF progressive meth

climate, thanks TO the efforts Of the

troops there suffer no more from vari-
Gus ailments than those stationed at
home.
According TO General Wood, peace
reigns without any sign OF discomfort
Schools have been opened all over the
island, at which the attendance is large.
The orphan asylums for destitute chill
dren, ones by one, are being abolished
as unnecessary, and beggars are never
seen. The latter fact is remarkable
considering the usual number OF mendi-
cants in all places inhabitated by peo-
pie Of Spanish blood. The judiciary Is
reformed, and the wheels of govern
ment are working smoothly.
He expresses the opinion that the
Cuban government will be in complete
working order in eight months. and
that our army may then be safely With
drawn and the island turned over to the
new government With this accom-
Nished, the American people will have
written a glorious chapter OF history:
pages OF humane conduct, wise states
