How to Build Up the Coun

try.
The country school is, single
handed, powerless to save our
country boys and girls from
making our country and city
problem worse and worse. We
need industrial training more
than anything else. We should
teach variety of the ordinary
indurtrial trades. But particu-
larly we should foster the hand
arts and crafts that are pecu-
iary adapted for practice in an
atmosphere of quiet, close to
nature, and where there are vast
treasures of time running to
waste from lack of employment.
We have a list of more than
thirty arts, crafts and small in
dustries well adapted to country
conditions and which are already
in different places.
We should make a good deal of
reading in history, literature
and the sciences directly from
nature. And so we shall train
up capable and hopeful genera
ton for the self-existence of a
country life; and those
we send to the city will have
each his or her craft in hand,
will have ideals and some ability
to do all they dare dream Of
Pressey's Solution of the Coun-
try Problem.

MUST TAKE CARE OF THE
NEGRO

Must TAKE CARE OF THE
NEGRO.
The Gazette has always con-
tended that any effort to organ
ize white Repu blican party in
the South is doomed to failure.
A Republican party which ex-
cludes the negro from participa-
ton in it's affairs, can not, in the
very nature of things, hope to be
successful. It's promoters may
be sincere. They may be hon
estly in favor of eliminating the
negro as factor in politics. We
believe that the Lily Whites in
this State are intensely in earn
est. At least, a majority of them
are. But the time will come
when the colored brother will
have to be reckoned with. He
may be temporarily ignored, but
whenever he will be strong
enough to assert those rights
which ublicanism has given
him and guarantees to him, the
best laid schemes of the Lily
Whites will go to pieces.
At this time there is a move
ment to organize a white Repub-
lican party in every Southern
State, similar to the one in Louis
lana. In North Carolina the
white Republicans are display
ing great activity under the
leadership of United States Sen
Senator Pritchard. Everything
was lovely in the camp of the
North Carolina Lily Whites until
a few days ago when their little
plan sustained a severe shock.
It was in the shape of letter
written by Gen. James S. Clark
son, an intimate friend and poll
tical manager of President
Roosevelt, to Lee Person, a ne
gro politician of North Carolina.
The letter reads:
my Dear Mr.. Person-I am
glad to have your letter. I need
no thanks for what I did in op-
posing the Jim Crow party in
Alabama and other Southern
States. No self-respecting Re-
pu blican will tolerate any such
attempted departure from the
cardinal doctrine of the party.
The President has no sympathy
with it and you may assure all
your friends and your whole
race that he is as. sound on the
of human rights, and
suffrage as am.
Il shall be glad to hear from you
you have anything to
Sincerely yours,
JAMES S. CLARKSON."
It is needless to say that
letter has thrown
cold water on the
lily White movement in North
Carolina. Not long ago Clarkson

USES OF A TARIFF COMMISSION

Ore of the recommends tons which the
President is likely to make in his message
next month is a tariff commission as sug-
gested in his Logansport speech. At the
time the proposition called forth consid-
cradle criticism. but of late there is reason
to believe that the suggestion has been
received with more favor. 1t is a signif-
molth contained an article upon the sub
ject entitled THE True Purpose of Tariff
Commission 1t is shown in this article
that the chief utility of permanent tariff
commission would be TO gather information
for the use OF Congress as TO the exact
effect of the tariff upon industries, wages.
prices. revenue. imports. and home produc-
ton and consumption. Heretofore the
ways and means committee has derived its
information from public hearings. where
those interested presented their views. That
committee had no means of getting facts
covering all the effects of duties upon all
the interests which are involved in produc-
ton, wages, prices and consumption. A
tariff commission of experts could deter
mine the rate OF duty essential 20 protec-
ton. The Proteetionist holds that such
commission should be composed of men
who believe in protection as the estab-
lished policy OF the country. This is the
correct view, since il has always appeared
when a tariff is discussed that the advo-
Gates OF free trade as a theory are usually
in favor of protection where local interests
are affected. The South is for free trade.
but when the Wilson bill was pending it
demanded and its representatives insisted
upon a duty on coal. tropical fruits and
sugar. Such a commission should not all
be Republicans. as there are many Demo-
Gratis who are protectionists. like Mr.
Thayer. who has just been reelected TO
the House In Massachusetts,.

tariff might be taken out of politics. but

CUBA HARD TO PLEASE.

Washington dispatches indicate serious
difficulty regarding the negotiation OF
reciprocity treaty with Cuba, and, strange
to say. the trouble is now with Cuba Dur
ing the last session of Congress. when the
subject was discussed for months. it was
understood that Cuba would accept almost
anything the United States might offer In
the way of reciprocity, but the objections
were altogether on our side and in one or
two large interests. After Congress ad-
journed an attempt was made to settle the
matter by treaty instead of by legislation,
and Il treaty was drafted with the an
prevail of Secretary Hay and of the Cuban
minister at Washington, which was sent
to President Palma some months ago This
treaty proposed to grant a rebate of 20 per
cent. on all Cuban imports into the United
States in consideration of certain conces-
sions to be made on American products
imported into Cuba. 1t is said that Presi-
dent Palma is not satisfied with the pro-
posed rebate of 20 per cent. in the duties
on Cuban imports and that he will ask for
more. AS the treaty, even If accepted by
Cuba. would have TO be approved by the
United States Senate. and as the session
of Congress is close al hand, il becomes i'm
portant TO know what Cuba Is going TO do
about 1t. Therefore. after a conference
between Secretary Hay and Secretary
Root, 1T was decided to send treasury
tariff expert to Cuba to explain what the
practical effect OF the treaty would be. Ii
is thought that perhaps the Cuban author
tiles do not appreciate the fact that the
American duty on sugar being about 100 per
cent. rebate of 20 per cent. will amount
10 $40 on every 800 worth of Cuban sugar
rates being lower the United States may
fairly ask a higher percentage of rebate
as an equivalent for it's 20 per cent re-
bate. A 20 per cent. rebate OF a high duty.
OF course. means much more than the same
rebate on low duty. Thus the treaty
proposes a 90 per cent. rebate on American
cotton goods going into Cuba. but as the
Cuban duty on cotton goods is IS Is per
cent. a 90 per cent. rebate would amount
10 only s6,66 on each 800 worth of Amer
lean cotton goods goins into Cuba, as
against rebate of $50 on every slo0 worth
OF Cuban sugar or tobacco coming into
the United States. 1t Is plain that Cuba
would have much the best of that arrange
ment. and that it rs really very liberal

CUBA GETTING SPUNKY
MAY ATTEMPT To IGNORE THE
PLATT AMENDMENT.
Report that the Island Government
May Try tn Negotiate Treaties
with other Nations.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13-Gen. Tasker IL.
Bliss will sail for Cuba Saturday IL he can
secure steamship accommodations. II not
he will go by way OF Tampa and reach
Havana early next week. IL is the inten-
ton of those interested in the commercial
treaty with Cuba TO have IL ready IL pos
sible in three weeks and General Bliss will
endeavor to adjust the differences by that
time. 1t is considered important TO have
the treaty sent TO the Senate before the
holiday recess. 1t will require a two-thirds
vote TO ratify the treaty and determined
minority in the Senate could postpone
action on IL for some time.
Those best informed regarding conditions
existing in the island do not expect any
speedy action. They believe that large
number of Cubans are very much opposed
to granting the concessions the United
States will demand. There is also talk that
they may test the effectiveness of the Piatt
amendment by entering into negotiations
with other countries regarding trade rela-
tons. The position which our government
holds i'm Cuba and our relations with the
leading foreign nations at the present time
Is such that IL Is believed none OF the gov
ernments would care TO make any treaty
with Cuba which was not sanctioned by the
United States. There Is even some
talk that the negotiations with Cuba
might be brought 10 a satisfactory
conclusion should II appear that the rep
resentatives OF foreign governments at
Havana had been instructed not 10 enter
into negotiations until treaty had been
concluded with the United States. II Is

proposition on the part of the United
States. And yet. after several months
elaboration, the Cuban President gives
no indication Of approving the treaty. A
year ago a rebate of 20 per cent. in the
duties on Cuban sugar and tobacco would
probably have been accepted gladly; now
they want more. Pit is understood, says
a Washington dispatch, that the Cubans
are entirely unwilling TO accept any small
increase. In the face of great shortage
in the European crop and rapidly rising
market, they have acquired confidence in
their ability TO get along for an indefinite
period of time without reciprocity with the
United States, and so it is understood tina.
they are showing an Indifference in the
prosecution Of the treaty negotiations"
All this presents the Cuban character
and government in anything but an ad-
mirable light. They seem to have no sense
of fair dealing much less of gratitude for
what this government has done for them.
They owe everything to the United States.
But for our intervention Cuba would still
be under Spanish rule. The Cubans never
could have achieved their independence un-
aided. and they are under further debt
of gratitude to the United States for hav
ing tided them over a period of anarchy
and assisted them until they were able to
establish a government of their own. Now.
when the United States offers them a
treaty granting trade concessions decided
ly more advantageous than those ii asks

and intimate that they can do better else
where. They could not do better else
where when they wanted powerful friend
to assist them in gaining their independ-
ence. They are quibbling. suspicious, I'M
grateful lot.
The United States is under a moral obli-
cation to continue to extend a helping
hand to Cuba and to establish advantageous
reciprocity of trade with her. but it is dis
couraging to end our friendly efforts in
that direction so ungraciously received.
