tut Loose From the Spanish FrIars.

Dn- may readily believe the report that
some "f the native priests in the Philip
pines ar opposed to Archbishop Chapelle
alleged recommendation that American
priests he substituted as far as possible
for Spanish friars in the parishes, and
have petItioned Rome for a return of the
Spanish archbishop OF Manila. The testi-
Trony before both Philippine commissions
shows that the native priests. as rule,
y hie deep I'm all insure ctionary movements
and hostile to the domination of the Span
iSt friars. have proved the apt pupils of
thu. friars in those practices which have
caused the mOnastic orders to be detested
Iy th,. bulk of the Filipinos. The ambition
~ many of the native priests seems to
have. been to wrest from the Spanish friars
their power and peculiar privileges only to
--<er, Use and enjoy them for their own per
s..nat benefit. They not opposed to
ecclesiastical arbitrary domination, provid-

name of the United States in Cuba has
been befouled by some of it's own citizens

there Is less wonder now at the attitude of
the Cubans when the terms of this gov
ernment were first presented.
We shall get there in good time and in

little In the making of a state. If Cuba
never before fully understood the Monroe
doctrine and what her relations as an in
dependent power must be to it she sees
the whole question plainly enough now. If
she never before appreciated how neces-
sary the good will and protection of the
United States are to her she does now
Abundant light plays over the whole sub

pacity of the Cuban people for managing
their own political affairs will be the pains
they take to get. and keep. in touch with
the one great nation which above all others
they must consider in all affairs touching
their safety and prosperity. For the Cuban
government which should undertake to an
tagonize the United States would prove the
pronounced enemy of the island and all its

general strike of the machinists of the
country. as threatened by the labor leaders
Just at present would be shocking blow
~ the national prosperity. 1t is imposSi-
be To estimate the losses certain to result
from the paralysis of the industrial world
tv such a crisis. The United States is to-
day selling it's metal manufactures to all
he civilized countries. 1t is dominating
he foreign markets never before with
Ibis class OF goods. The demand for Its
steel products of all descriptions is far be-
y,nd the supply. and so progressive is the
conquest of the field abroad by the Ameri-
ga goods that serious alarm is spreading
i'm the European centers of capital and in
iustry. and steps are being urged by the
foreign press to restrict the enterprise of
rur producers and exporters.
Under these conditions the American ma
chinists are now asked by their leaders to
Kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.
Their demands may be reasonable in some
degrees. but the alternative they threaten
is out of proportion. The complete stop
page of work by upwards of 60o.WO skilled
workmen in the American cities would pre-
..ipitate a situation leading to untold COM
IeNities. So general strike could not fail
{" produce other disturbances. Despite the
lack of cohesion between the various ma
tinnal representative organizations. the
danger Of sympathetic strike of all the
trades is never absent.
There is yet time for sober consideration
and for reasonable discussion between
w"rkmen and employers. The date set for

Give Washington "a Union station.

Give Washington Union station.
No doubt can now exist that the Balti-
more and Ohio and the Pennsylvania rail-
road properties are henceforth to be con-
trolled by the same interest combination
of interests. The news published in yes
terday's Star indicated that the Pennsyl-
vania has now secured such a dominance
in the affairs of the other road as to per-
NIT the nomination of its officers and ex-
ecutives, and these two corporations may
henceforth be considered as one in point of
policy. whatever may be the form of their
legal organization. At no other point In
the mutual occupation of territory by these
roads has the consolidation more vital
significance than in Washington. where the
change in the case suggests readjustment
of the terminals. Every factor of economy
and good business management points to a
single terminal in place of two. while the
public interests unquestionably demand the
same course.
The law now permits the construction of
two terminals, each with valuable public
grant to the corporation. The controlling
ownership of the properties should. in JUS
tice to the community. choose between
these grants and legal requirements. 1t
should either accept the money donation
L
ileges accorded to the B. and O. in the
northeastern section of the city and locate
the central station there; or it should
choose the valuable grants of public lands
south and west of the Capitol and place the
union depot in that locality. There is now
no excuse for double concessions by the
government and the District to secure from
these roads the Justice through the removal
of the deadly grade crossings which should
have been accorded Years ago without such
persuasion.
This decision should Furthermore be
reached within the present season. to per-
NIT the park commission now sitting to
frame its plans with full knowledge of the
certain future of the Mall and the other
park lands affected by the railroad terminal
projects. If the Il. and o. grant is ac-
cepted for the consolidated terminal the
Mall can be restored to its original condi-
tion and proportions and there need be no
obstacle to an appropriately elaborate and
complete park Improvement design. If on
the other hand the 9Th street site is to be
chosen for this purpose. it is equally i'm
portant that the precise limitations of the
union station should be early fixed In order
that the park development scheme may
proceed with assurance of future immunity
from change and encroachment.
The railroads unquestionably owe to the
capital. which has done much for them
and suffered so seriously at their hands,
this degree of consideration, apart from
the point OF corporation economy. The
union station is suggested by every con-
sideration Of good business administration
and wise municipal development. The at.
tractiveness of the capital and the pocket
books of both taxpayers and railroad are
affected.
