GOING BACK TO CUBA.

Captain George Stanton undoubtedly
has the situation sized up right when
he says Uncle Sam will not be long
away from Cuba. He is a keen observ-
er and thoroughly understands human
nature. Ignorant Cubans will inaugar-
ate revolution after revolution, just as
the other southern republics have done
and 1t will be necessary for this gov
eminent to pacify them.
The law court, Mr.. Stanton says, is
something they are unable to under.
stand, and this will certainly mean a
resort to force. Again, those in power
who have robbed the government will
instigate q revolution of the people in
order that their nefarious practices
may not be found aus for their re-
moval from ONCE and prosecution.
They would rather be thrown out by
revolution.
As a state of the American union.
under the strong protecting a of I'm
Gle Sam, they would have freedom
indeed, with the additional advantage
of being able to market their products
in this country without let or hind.
rance.
Many Cubans will be happy when
Uncle Sam comes marching back.

Miss Emma M. Herey has returned
to her home In Denver from the meet,
ing of the federation of woman'e clubs
at Los Angeles, and gives a glowing &C.
count Of the reception and meeting in
the California town. The color ques-
ton. strangely enough, was SO quietly
settled that 1t was of secondary i'm
%portance. Massachusetts,. in her stand
for the colored women, apparently
gave way before the determined stand
taken by the south. and the speeches
made indicate q sentiment to let the
south. which after all has more to do
with the question. have the principal
voice in the matter. The ladies' GER
tainly showed wisdom In. the action
taken. The people Of the south. who
deal with the negroes in their every
day Affairs. must necessarily be the
mes who will be the final arbiters up
on all questions relating to the colored
race. It IL . great burden, but let US
hope In their wisdom they will be able

large enough to permit the working Of
six cooks which with six walters and
a conductor make up the crew. The
dining cars heretofore in service did
not provide sufficient space to proper

rons Of the Pioneer, so that it became
necessary to have a larger. car.

Bishop Fowler not long ago said to

WONDERS OF THE COMMON LAW.

In a way law is like Christian doc.
trine. The faith, once for all deliv.
cred to the saints" may, by interpre-
tation and development. assume as
poets with which the saints were not
altogether familiar. Similarity, the
common law today, though identical
originally with the common law of yes
terday, may reach conclusions at
which yesterday would be surprised.
No n can tell what the law will bring
forth. 1t seems to contain within it.
self certain seeds or germs which re-
spond readily to cultivation, but which
may have the most unexpected charac-
teristics. Here, for instance. is Judge
Connorton Of Long Island City. who
after 10 O'Clock at night need not come
to him when they get into trouble.
They have put themselves outside the
pale Of the law. II they had not been
out after 10 they would not have got
into trouble. And they ought not to
have been but after 10. Who would
have suspected that any cobwebbed
cocoon in the repositories Of the COM
mon law would open out into a but
terfiy Of this kind? The thing wa
simply incalculable. No one could
have foreseen It. The astrological al
manacs will inform us that Jupiter. be-
