CUBAN DELAY DANGEROUS.

The report that reciprocity with Cuba may
be postponed for year because of disagree
ment between the two houses of Congress is
unwelcome Its realization would be discredt-
able and dangerous. Every argument in favor
of making concessions TO Cuban commerce is
equally an argument for making them now.
Postponement for year would rob the act of
all its graciousness and of much of its practi-
cal value to both countries. and would in
addition entail upon both countries grave possi-
bilities of evil The almost inevitable results of
such postponement would. indeed be so deplor-
able that it seems inconceivable that thoughtful
men should incur them. unless under the com
pulsion of absolute necessity. That they should
wantonly do so because of some disagreement
over procedure or because of some idle or spite
frl threats prefer 10 regard as simply un-
thinkable
Here is the situation: Cuba, prostrated by
war, is just getting upon her feet again The
first good crop OF sugar cane in seven years has
been produced and is ready for milling. If IL is
mlled and the sugar sold, large measure OF
prosperity will be restored to the island. II
not prostration and distress will continue and
in many cases be intensified But the cane can
not be ground unless market is opened for
the sugar, and the only market possible is in
this country. The need is for this market TO be
opened by reciprocity. and for this to he done
within the next month or two otherwise the
relief will come too late TO save the island from
another year of distress. This. also. is the
situation: Cuba is just establishing a new
government OF her own. Ii is necessary for
that government to have a revenue and emf
nently desirable for it to come into office with
the people prosperous and contented These
conditions are TO be secured only through n
stimulation OF Cuban industry and commerce
by an opening thereto Of the markets OF the
United States. We may also mention that q

INTERNATIONAL SANITATION.

Not the least important topic upon which the
Pan-Amercan Congress. now sitting in Mexico
Is expected to take action Is proposition for
international cooperation In regard to santa
ton and quarantine. In coming years closer
commercial and political relations are sure to
exist between the nations of the Western Cont
nent. Intercourse between the people thereof
Will consequently grow. Protection against the
Importation Of contagious diseases and uniform
ity in practice in dealing with the same must
therefore become increasingly desirable The
scheme which the proper committee of the con-
gress has adopted possesses several features
upon which agreement cannot fail to be
mutually advantageous. This programme is
the more meritorious in that none of its pro-
visions are likely to prove oppressive or sus-
ceptible OF abuse when formally sanctioned by
the congress.
There are three measures looking to inter
national cooperation which the committee
recommends. One calls for a prompt inter-
change of news concerning the prevalence of
contagious diseases, another cOntemplates the
formation of a permanent sanitary commission,
and the third provides for holding conferences
every two years. The first of these has the
most immediate bearing on quarantine admins
tration. Its great merit is that 1t substitutes a
regular and efficient system of warning for a
more or less unreliable one. From the tee-
graphic summary of the report II is not clear
what powers the commission will exercise nor
how It's members are to be appointed Its func-
HONS however, will doubtless be merely ad-
visory. In any event, the organization can
hardly fall to prove highly useful Perhaps the
method OF selecting the delegates may be best
left TO the countries which they represent. The
biennial conferences will doubtless resemble the
congresses recently held In Europe TO consider

AMERICAN WoRKIyGnEy sLAyDERED.

Some English worbingmen appear to have
curious ideas of the workingmen of this coun-
try. Ben Tillett prominent English labor
leader, has been in this country for several
months and, being an intelligent man. 1t might
be supposed that he at least would be able TO
learn something at first hand about the forces
underlying American industrial life and prog
ress. How far this is from being the case may
be Inferred from the following utterance OF his
made last Sunday to gathering of working
men in Baltimore:
Your civil and political life is degradation
You are burdened with foolish thinkers and
corrupt gangs. Your Congress is corrupt Your
Senate is corrupt. Your judiciary Is corrupt
and would sell Jesus Christ
We regret to say that these accusations were
applauded by the particular audience be.

Whatever may be his right to speak for labor
In England, he Las shown himself unable or
unwilling TO see that the American working
man has too much sense and patriotism to APP

1t seems that the failure of Tillett 10 persuade

Mcdonald the Editor of The Trades and Labor
Gazette" of London who is also secretary of
the London Trades Council Holding such inn
pOrtant offices Mr.. Mcdonald ought TO be an nm
usually intelligent and brOadmnded man. but
this Is what he says
The American workman may grumbIe Iess and
more readily respond to the invitation of his
capitalist taskmaster because he is better
broken in animal. He recognizes capital 40
king, and fully understands that the capitalist
owns him body and soul and that he must Law
al the feet of his king, capital, all his physical
and intellectual energies and fight his battles
He Is entirely the creature of capital and has
no more real independence than the machine he
works. He claims to be the most independent
worker earth, but that independence is
nevertheless, entirely subject to a money value
and up to the present he has sold Il to the high
est bidder
American workingmen, according to this
critic are "the most degraded of creatures"
who do but follow their animal instincts when
they favor the survival of any particular
group of employers" In that last sentence ap-
pears TO be contained the real charge made
against the American workngman. He does
not want to improve his condition by trying to
ruin and put out of business the men who give
him work. Worse still. he actually tries to ad-
vance the interests of his employer by putting
all his intelligence into his work. in the belief
that an injury to One even if he is only an en-

MATCHES AND TRIALS.

The outlook for special contests among the
fastest trotters in world-they are all in the
United States-is encouraging for the coming
season. The Abbot, King Derby, Boralma and
other horses may fairly be expected to equal or
surpass their achievements of previous years.
And the PAGERS, the sO-callPd "side wheelers" +"
will also shake n nimble heel.
1t is of interest to observe that Mr. Scannell.
the humble Tammany tOier in our Fire Depart
ment for years, has not been reduced to penury
by his loss of revenue president of the fire

$4,000, more or less, against all cOmers. Mr.
Scannel may even be willing to pit his wonder

THE COUNTY JUDGE PROPOSAL.

Senator Slater's bill following up Governor
Odell's recommendation that the Governor be
authorized under specified conditions TO desg-
nate county judges for temporary service as SUI
preme Court justices in order to reduce the
| Overcrowded calendars OF trial terms, appears
TO be regarded with disfavor by the profession
in this city. Undoubtedly the proposal involves
some serious questions one of which is the com
potency of county judges to try the complicated
causes which constantly in litigation here
There may be other arguments against 1t which
deserve a careful hearing and II is frankly ad-
mitted as a general principle that measures
affecting the judiciary should not be hurredly
dealt with 1t remains to be said, however that
when opponents Of the plan allege that it is in
spired by political motives, and that Governor
Odell is seeking TO increase his personal power
by this means they do him no harm and them
selves credit.
In the first place. such an assumption finds
support in the Governors treatment of pub
lie questions, and for that reason should not
have been eXcitedly put forward. III the second
place, ii shows ignorance of essential facts. The
Introduction of Senator Slatcrs bill cannot pos
sby result in a sudden and uhdesired change OF
the judicial system, inasmuch as It contem-
plates an amendment of the constitution,
which necessarily involves free and full dis
cussion. The bill must be passed by two egls-
latures, and thereafter submitted TO popular
vote in accordance with the prescribed method
OF altering the organic law which thus forbids
haste or tyranny For the same reason Ii Is
absurd 70 suppose that Governor Odell is
craftily endeavoring to increase his own author
ity and Importance, since several years must
necessarily elapse before the power of assigning
county judges to new functions can be conferred
on the Executive 1t may he unwisc to give Il
governor that power, and on other grounds the
proposal may be unworthy of adoption; hut Al
least its merits and defects should be intell-
gently discussed. Such consideration 1t IS now
receiving at the hands of the Supreme Court
justices and of the bench and bar In general.
New-York tribune., 1902-01-18
years delay will mean the spending of
s20OOO,O 900 or S3O0000O0 of Cuban money in

$4,000 900 or S30,0000O0 of Cuban money in
Europe all of which under reciprocity would
come to the United States.
These are some of the practically certain
evils of delay. There are other dangers even
more serious We do not exaggerate when we
say that another year of industrial and
mercial stagnation will gravely imperil the
peace of the island. Industrial and commercial
grievances were the cause Of the Cuban revOlts
against Spain. We cannot expect the Cubans
TO endure them any more submissively at our
hands, or even under an inSular government of
their own. There is, too, the peril of a change
of Cuban sentiment toward this country At
present most Cubans regard the United States
with confidence and gratitude. But If we break
faith with them, and doom them to the same
evils as those they suffered under Spanish rule,
it will be only natural for them to regard us
with dlstrust and animosty. Many will thus
regard us unless we deal fairly with them,
while others will seek relief from their woes in
annexation to the United States Surely no
thoughtful and patriotic American can desire,
or can be willing to incur. either OF those
results. We do not want Cuba to be hostile to
us, and thus a constant source of irritation; and
certainly do not want 1t Incorporated into
this Union.
For the sake of Cuba and for the sake of the
United States, and In order that our war with
Spain shall not have been fought in vain. reci-
procity with Cuba ought 10 be established and
ought to be established now. National moral
ity. national honor and national interests all
demand IT, Apparently the only opposition to
il comes from single interest. which frankly
admits that it would not be materially injured
by it. I'VE are not afraid of Cuban compe-
tition. even a free trade basis" declare the
beet sugar magnateS Yet they desperately
oppose even 30 per cent concession to Cuban
commerce. We cannot believe that such oppo-
stion can prevail. even so far as to cause post

PENSIONS FOR CONFEDERATES.

Representatives RiIey, of Virginia and Rich

ceptiOn accorded by some Southern newspapers
TO their proposition to open the national sol
diers homes to Confederate soldiers or to sup
port INDECENT COnfederates by federal appro-
priatiOns THE State" of Columbia. s. c..
frowns upOl the suggestion, which it regards as
in bad taste, coming from Southern Represent
atives and adds that the Southern people will
never consent to the survivors of the COnfeder-
ate armies being pensiOned by the federal gov
ernment. Governor McSweeney of South Caro-
lima is in sympathy with this view of the case
and has included in his message to the legslat
ure a strong recommendation for the establish
ment of Confederate soldiers home.
The State expresses its resignation TO the
probable readiness of Northern opinion TO look
upon Southern disapproval of the Rixey plan
as evidence of continued dslOyalty to the
Union On the contrary are inclined to
think that people of sense in all parts of the
country will commend the South for its feeling
that the needy veterans of the Confederacy
should be cared for, and that the people who
provide for their support should be the sons
of those for whom they fought This Union
has nothing to fear from Southern devotion to
the heroes of the Lost Cause.
