discovered the roof of the cook

wind blowing at the time and moth
ing could be done to check the fire,
which soon spread over the entire
building, reducing it to ashes in a
few minutes.
The wife of Mr.. Albert Anderson
and their infant were in bed and
had very narrow escape from
horrible death, as the house collaps-

were moved out. The building
was d frame structure and was
comparatively new, having been
erected about two years ago.
MIR. Anderson had no insurance
aud the loss, $1,000, falls heavily
upon him.

JUST CHANGE OF MASTERS.

Much has been said and it has
been the boast of Americans that
the Spanish-American war, so far
as the United States were concern
ed, was one of humanity and the
cause of freedom--humanity for
humanity's sake and freedom for
the sole benefit of the Cubans.
Congress solemnly declared, by
resolution, that this country was
forced to take up arms against
Spain for the brutality that
country was exercising over its
West Indian dependencies, and
disclaimed any intention of terri
torial conquest or reward for the
humane part this country was to
take in surpressing tyranny.
But what are the results? Has
Uncle Sam evacuated the soil
of Cuba and left its people free
to adopt their own form of govern
ment? Have the Cubans, them
selves, expressed a desire to be-
a part of this Union? Unfortun-
ately for the integrity and good
name of the United States all the
questions must be answered in

this is wrong the duties will be
refounded. 1t is assumed that
all the duties at both ends will
be paid under protest.
The Administration has decid-
ed that there shall be no material
change in the character of the
new government to be established
in the Philippines on July l. In
all the provinces where the author
ity of the United States has been
completely esta blished, there will
be purely civil, provincial and
municipal government, such as
are at present being installed by
the Taft Commission.
For the island as whole there
will be government such as that
which the President and the Taft
Commission have been planning to
institute. It will be essentially
civil government, administered
by civilians, but it will be inSti-
tuted under military authority
and will be ADMINISTERED under the
War Department, all reports being
made to the Secretary of War in
stead of the Secretary of State,
as would probably have been the
system if it had not been found
necessary to preserve the form of
military government.
This will necesstate a com
plete ignoring of the Spoon
er amendment, although Judge
Taft and his associates have been
org anizing the civil government
under that amendment.
Since the days Cabinet meeting
the Spooner amendment has beer
dropped like hot coal and the
Philippines are to be ruled civil
ly," but under the military
power.

Albuquerque, May "a.

Albuquerque, May "a.
To the editor of the New Mexi-
cant notice in a recent issue
of your paper that a prominent
republican writes you stating
that in his opinion IAN enabling
act for the admission of New
Mexico as a state should not be
passed until after the 1902 eleC-
ton, and then if the territory
goes republican such an act could
be passed at the short session of
congress, ETC." You also state
that this republican states that
there are many republicans
throughout the territory in favor
of this plan.
l am sincerely glad, Mr.. Edi-
tor, that you state you are not in
favor of this suggestion. | want
to add to what you said that it is
this confounded lazy ''manana"
policy that has kept New Mexico
out of the Union for more than
half a century. This putting the
constitutional rights of people
on a partisan basis should never
be countenanced in any body,
much less in any of our own citi-
zens. | claim to be as good a
republican as anyone, but | want
to put myself on record as saying
that if the choice was up to me to
live in a demacrtic state or a re-
publican territory, | would favor
the former every time. We
/ should never COuntenanCe the
rights of our people being put
upon merely partisan basis.
When the peoples right to re-
publican form of government is
put upon partisan basis the
foundation principles of the gov-
ernment itself are disparaged.
What does partisanship in a ter
, ritory amount to, anyway. Let
us become part of the United
, States first. B. S. Rodey.
5 Come off Mr.. Rodey! You are
| not Simon pure republican. The
real kind in New Mexico, first of
y all things, desire to beat the dem
e ocratas, even if they injure them
| selves in SO doing; and sencondly,
. they want all the Doodle in SIGHT.
Now, as you are not built that
g way, you are certainly not d

REPU BLIC SPECIAL.

dSlllS lOll, y uHN~ T. ~ "
days Cabinet meeting the admin
stration turned a very sharp cor
ner in the Philippine matter, and
Attorney General Knox proved
himself to be a legal magician.
These points were decided:
There will be no extra session
of Congress. In the absence of
decision by the Supreme Court in
the Philippine case, it would be
impossible for Congress to legis-
late intelligently.
Duties will continue to be col
lected, Both in the United States
and in the Philippines, as at pres
ent.
If the decision Of the court is
adverse to the Government the
duties will be refounded.
The form of government in the
Philippines will be changed on
July 1.
The new government will be
administered by civilians, but it
will be military in name, and
will report to the Secretary of
War. All the powers of this
Government will, therefore, be
exercised under the military
authority of the President, rather
than under the Spooner amend
ment to the army bill.
The action of the Cabinet, in
deciding to continue nominal
military government in the Philip
pines, continues the fiction that
the Government of the United
States is not yet in complete con-
troll of the islands; and that they
are being governed by the Presi-
dent under his military powers.
Mr.. Knox has rendered a very
subtle and delicate opinion. There
is to be civil government in the
Philippines, but it is to be called
a military government.
Attorney General Knox pointed
out to the President and the other
members of the Cabinet that il
Congress should be called tOgeth.
er it would be very difficult tC
frame any legislation that wOulC
be certain to stand the test OF
the courts, in view of the fac
that nothing had been decided
as to the status of the Philippine;
or as to the validity of the taxes
collected in Porto Rico under the
Foraker act.
For these reasons it was decid
ed not to call an extra session o
Congress, and to go on collecting
duties in the Philippines unde
the military authority of tn
President and collecting dutie
on goods coming from the Philip
pines into the United States. |

the negative. The Island is still
gaarisoned by American soldiers
the Island government is conduct
ed by officials appointed by the
president, and the Cuban people
have nothing to say in the gov
ernment of their land no more
than when the Spaniards were
ravaging the island.
Three years ago the Spaniards
were driven out of Cuba, but to-
day the Cubans seem farther
from liberty than when Toral
surrendered Santiago de Cuba,
and the following expression
from Adjutant-General Corbin,
who is close to the preident,
would Indicate that this country
never intends to fulfill the obli-
cations expressed in the famous
resolution of April, 1898. Gen.
Corbin says. Il do not see there
is anything in the Cuban situation
to disturb the President or the
American people. The fact of
the matter is the other fellows
are the ones who will have to do
the walking.
"Our army will remain in Cuba
until stable government is es-
tablished there that in every way
meets the requirments of Congress.
OF course, as long as our troops
garrison the island American in
terests will be we'll protected and

the very best and most liberia

have met our advances. | tol,

Folding Beds.

All purchasers of folding beds do not
buy them solely for the sake of saving
room. According to a manufacturer.
some people with ample house room at
command buy them. for one reason. so
that the rooms in which they are placed
can be put to other uses than as bed
rooms.
This manufacturer mentioned one
New York family in whose house are
eleven fine folding beds Any room ir
the house designed for and equipped as
a sleeping room could easily be trans
formed from bedroom to one that had
no appearance of a sleeping apartment
whatever.
There are produced nowadays folding
beds of one kind and another that are
sold at low prices. but the most costly
of the finer folding beds may easily be
pretty dear affairs.
The manufacturer told of one elab-
orately designed and finished folding
bed that cost $1,000. the cost of the
carving alone having been $300.-New
