Denver, Col, Oct 6.-Congressman
John +. Shafroth, who has been travel
ing in China and the Philippines for
the past four months has reached
home. Speaking of the conditions in
the Philippines he said:
Peace has been practically restored.
There is still little insurrection in
Samar, but aside from that everything
is fairly quiet. | do not believe, how
ever, that the retention of the islands
will be profitable as the government
will have to expend a great deal OF
money on them, even in times of peace.
1t costs now between $50, 900, 900 and
75,000,000 a year to keep the soldiers
there, and even if the number is re-
duced to 10000 the expense will still be
greater than the profits from the is
lands will warrant. The Islands are
unquestionably rich, but their benefit
to the United States will not material
lie until a generation or two shall have
passed and the need for an army I'm the
islands shall have gone"
In regard TO China, Mr.. Shafroth
says:
THE trade Of the United States with
China has grown rapidly,and this coun-
try will soon be keeping pace with the
struggle for supremacy. The danger
of the invasion Of American fields by
the Chinese Is not very great so long
as the exclusion act is in force. but as
this will expire next May, the problem
will be one for the government again
to consider. So far the government
has not allowed the Chinese to enter
the Philippines, and l presume it will
exclude them there so long as they are
kept out Of the United States"
Mr.. Shafroth looked into the silver
question in the PHILIPPINES and when
congress shall meet this winter, will
submit a plan for the re-opening of the
mint at Manila and the establishment
Of free coinage Of the silver of the Is
lands. Mexican and English silver coins
are now circulated in the islands. and
as American bills and gold command
pre2iium in China and neghboring
countries. most Of the American money
is now driven out of the country.

Cuba. We have accepted a trust
the fulillment of which calls tor
the sternest integrity of purpose
and the exercise of The highest WIS
dem. The new Cuba yet to arse
from the ashes of the past must
reeds be bound to US by ties of
singular intimacy and strength If its
enduring welfare is to be assured.
Whether those ties shall be organ
ic or conventional, the destinles of
Cuba are in some righttul form and
manner irrevocably llnked with our
own, but how and how far Is tor
the futu. e to determine in the ripe
ness of events.
"Our present duty to Cuda can
be performed by the making of
a reciprocal tariff arrangement with
her as President Mckinley urged
in his last words TO his country
men at Buffalo on the 5th> Of Sep
tember. A reasonable reduction in
our duties upon Cuban sugar and
tobacco, 10 exchange for fairly
compensatory reductions of Cuban
duties upon American products,
will answer the purpose, and l
strongly urge that such an arrange
ment be promptly made. 1t would
involve no sacrifice, but would be
as advantageous to us as 1t would
be to Cuba. The market for Anne
rican products in a country with
such population, such wealth and
purchasing power, as Cuba with
prosperity would speedily acquire,
made by the advantage Of preferen-
tial duties, would contribute far
more to our prosperity than the
portion Of GU, present duties which
we would be required to concede.
