In the Cuban treasury, at least that the
prospect does not warrant this bond issue
The position the United States occupies is this:
That, having forced persuaded Cuba to adopt the
Platt amendment, which limits Cubas rights to con-
tract financial obligations, the failure of the United
States to interfere and the bonds
might be taken as guarantee of their payment the
part OF the government This guarantee might be
pudated by this in the case of our own cit
liens or individual foreign bondhoders but II there
should be enough foreign bondhoders to influence a
foreign government to take up their great deal
OF trouble might arise. The United States is strong
enough not TO be afraid of any government in the
world 1t is not coercion that is to be feared In such
case but the moral pressure and the annoyance that
would inevitably result in a matter the equities of
which are difficult Of determination.
Here is the first OF the great disadvantages which
have resulted from the republican policy of giving
Cuba partial independence and retaining In our own
hands supervision the island which carries with
1t certain responsibility and an uncertain profit
second trouble is looming up on the horizon The
Cuban threatens the property of the Catholic
church, settled by the American governor, which is
another violation Of the Plat amendment The rec
procy trouble have with u.s. too. It is stated that
Cuba wants to hold special session of congress in
September to consider reciprocity treaty Altogether
this ward whom have appointed ourselves
guardian has given and continues to give us very
fair amount of trouble.

Least We Forget.

Despite the fact that the Repub-
lican party has earned through its
intrepid leader, President Roose-
welt, the sincere gratitude of the
people of the nation in settleing
the coal strike, there is a grave re-
sponsibility confronting those who
have the welfare of the nation at
heart, and who are desirous of a
continuance of the present times of
abundant prosperity. There is
more to be overcome than the ap-
parent apthy that exists. From
this time on the Democrats viii at
tempt by all the specinous argu-
ments and false logic at command
to harness up'n the party of Nc
Kinley and prosperity the respon-
sibility OF the coal strike. The
mere assertion OF such a fact is
enough to arouse the disgust of the
thoughtful and intelligen', vet the
fact remains that political history
has proven that there are many
people thus excitel who strike
and passionately at the
party in power. Ii those WHO are
sincere in the desire to have pros !
per ty continue do not realize this
iact as a truth. then they. too, are
he fools and will reap the FOOLS
heritage. 1t is the time now to go
It the task OF combating THIS feel
ng OF causele hostility, and the
must do it.

nations as quickly as l would

tor OF the laws of the country.
Senator Dubois furthur stated in
that same Nampa speech of his on
the 18th inst. that Theodore Roose-
welt is the only President who has
ever decended to the plane OF max
ing partisan speeches. AS matter
OF truth, President Roosevelt has
been making no partisan speeches
They have been speeches of patriot
ism appealing directly to the people
OF all classes and conditions. His
actions throughout have shown
exactly where he stood upon the
question of governing the trusts.
He is with the people in this mat
ter and the people know it. The
trusts also know it by this time
and Senator Dubois knows it.
The assault of Senator Dubois
upon the motives cf the President
Of the United States will make the
democratic party few votes in Ida
ho and We DO not doubt .hat Dubois
Is busy revising bis speech right
now. No President who ever occu-
pied the White House ever stood
so near to the interests of the work
men or SO near to the interests of
the men OF the West as does Theo-
icre Roosevelt Dubois knows

DUBOIS DON'T KNOW
VIII Have To Revise His
Speeches.
HE MAKES MISTAKES
The President Did Not Obey the
Words of the Coal Magnates
AS Quoted by the Senator

| Senator Dubois will proba ably
have to revise the speech he has
been making throughout North
Idado and which be is now bring
ing into the southeast. He de-
livered this speech at Nampa on
the 18th inst. and in the light of
what occored within a few hours
after that delivery of his speech.
be would rrobaly have better left
unsaid good many things that he
did say. His speech would have
looked better in print with a good
manv things cut out and Mr. Du-
bous would certainly not have
looked as small as he does today in
the eyes OF the people OF Idaho.
in that speech Dubois said that
President Roosevelt made an ap-
peal TO the coal magnets to settle
the coal strike but they replied to
the President. (and this is the ex-
act language used by the Senator
in mis- speech:
Don't meddie with us, get out
your Federal troops for our protec
tian. We own you, Mr.. Roosevelt,
and your party, and you shall not
medale in this matter at ALL"
These aie the words used bv Mr..
Dubois. In less than three hours
after they were uttered, President
Roosevelt. intervening Ia behalf of
the striking miners, bad that great
strike virtually settled and today
IL Is a thing of the past. Quite evil

tIcipate this result and 1t is also
quite evident that the President
did not obey the words OF the coal

In this same Namna speech (the
same sheech wqich he has been de-
livering in North Idaho) Senator
Dubois also stated that Piatt OF
New York, Piatt of Connecticut,
Hanna of Ohio. Lodge of Massa-
chusetts and Allison of Iowa went

direct on the Prrsendnt that he
must make no more attacks on the
trusts in his speechts and that he
must talk no more upln tariff r.
vision. He then stated ihat since
hat time President Roosevelt had
, en- entirely dunno on these ques-
ions. This is entirely untrue and
Dubois knew that it was untrue
vhen he uttered it. President
aciioa in bringing to
n end the greA. coal strike is a
urther direct rsfusaiion of these
harges.. The President was
b,igsd 10 abandon his itinerary

srved no,ice on him that be should a

arstions. Had they had the te- t
Ieritv to do so, a President so I,
