WARNING WENT uNHERpgp

Because the Cubans juggled with the
Plat amendment and attempted to
play politics with the administration
President Mckinley has refused to ac-
cept the constitution framed and
adopted by the Cuban Constitutional
Convention, and the island delegates
must revise and reform some of their
work The Blunder made by the Gu
bans was in disregarding the spirit
and letter Of the Platt amendment. AS
a result of a Cabinet conference, held
yesterday afternoon in Washington,
Secretary ofWar Root was instructed to
inform the Cuban Constitutional Con-
vention, through Governor General
Wood, that the conditions laid down
by the Platt amendment must be in
corported in the constitution of the
new republic, and that no modification
Of those definite provisions could be
acceptable to the government
The Cuban delegates had fair warn
ing that no modification of the amend
ment would be sanctioned. In spite OF
this they proceeded to do so, and now
they must undo their work before mill
tary occupation Of the island will cease
and The Cuban people will be self-gov-
erning.

WSpAPER OPINION
A Possibility

A Possibility
From the Chester Times.
A heavy bill has been presented to
the city of Wilmington by the Harlan
and Hollingsworth Company for dredg-
ing at one of the docks of the com
pany's shipyard in the Christiana-and
the city is going to pay it. The claim
is that the sewage has filled up the
dock of the company, making it i'm
possible to launch a boat without
dredging and the city is asked to pay
the cost of the work.
just how long it will be before this
city will find itself face TO face with
the same proposition remains to be
seen but that the sewage from this
city aids very materially in filing the
wharf fronts and the channel, there
can be no doubt. But that is not the
greatest evil in the business. The peo-
pie get their water supply from the
same stream into which all of the sew
age of the city flows. and that is re-
sponsible for the quality Of the water
and The bad taste that frequently is
noticed; SO that not only for the pro-
lection of the industries along the river
front, but for the protection of the
er or later have to make some differ
ent provision for the sewage Of the
streets and houses.
The city of Reading has a model
plant for the disposition Of all its
sewage and the water from the sewers
that runs into the Schuylkill river is
80 per cent. pure after the treatment
in the purifying processes; and if the
people are to have pure water sent
from the river into the Harrison Hill
reservoirs. there must be an end to
the dumping of the pollution into the
stream.
The movement for deep channel to
,ihe sea seems to have taken a definite
momentum, and one OF the ways to
keep a deep water channel is to stop
dumping refuse into the river from the
sewers, as well as from the dredging
scOws.

About writing Ones Name.

People who sign their letters Will
wild fourishes or initials only and give
no address offer one Of the worst of
compliments to their correspondent by
egotistically assuming that their hand
writing must be Of such familiar I'm
portance to him or that they and their
affairs are so present to his mind that
further Identification Is unnecessary.
Having their signature cut from the
end of a letter and the address from It's
heading pasted on the envelope which
incloses a reply is a bad compliment
which many persons bring upon them
selves by an objectionable ELIGIBILITY.
It Is singular fact that accidental mis-
spelling or mispronunciation of ones
name generally constitutes a greater
affront and is provocative Of more an
noyance than a studied insult--All the
