ILLINOIS MANUFACTURERS.
They Hold IA Banquet, at Which PresI-
ideut Hill, OF the Great Northern
Railway, Speaks.

Chicago, June 5.-One Of the larg-
est gatherings ever assembled in the
banquet hall of the Auditorium, was
present last night at dinner of the
Illinois Manufacturers association.
James j. Hill, president of the Great
Northern Railway Co., was the orator
of the evening. His subject was
Commercial Expansion" the banquet
being in the nature of celebration
of the prosperity pointed to by the
organization as the result of the eX-
pgnsion policy. Mr.. Hill said:
considering the question from a
broad, national standpoint, the inter
est next in Importance to agriculture
is the railway interest of the country.
! think | am safe in saying that next
to the Christian religion and the com
mon schools, no otIer single work en-
ters into the welfare OF the people
of the whole country to the same eX-
tent as the railway.
"While railways have to answer for
many mistakes of judgment or of in
tent, on the whole, the result has
been to create the most effective, use
full, and by far the cheapest system
of land transportation in the world.
in Il country as large as ours, car
rying on enormous undertakings,
large amounts of capital are neces-
sary, and this capital can be more
readily furnished by corporate own
ership than in any other way The
only serious objection to so-called
trusts has been the method of Great
ing them-not for the purpose of
manufacturing any particular com
modify in the first place. but for the
purpose Of selling printed securities,
which represent nothing more than
good will and prospective profit to
the promoters. If it is the desire of
the general government, through
congress, to prevent the growth of
such corporations, it has always
seemed TO me that simple remedy
was within their reach.
"All companies desiring to trans
act business outside of the state in
which they are incorporated, should
be held to a uniform provision of fed
eral law. They should satisfy com
mission that their capital stock was
actually paid up in cash or in proper
ty, at fair valuation. just as the
capital of a national bank IS certified
to be paid up With that simple law,
the temptation to make companies
for the purpose Of selling prospec-
tive profits would be at an end and,
at the same time, no legitimate busi-
ness would suffer"

OUR CUBAN RECORD.
Something That Certain Democrats
Propose to Make Party
Issue OF.

The new leaders Of the democratic
minority in the senate are preparing
to assail American administration in
Cuba. This is recent news from Wash
ington, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
When the United States government
intervened in Cuba the island had been
devastated by war. One-third of the
population had been destroyed in bat
tie or massacre. or through starvation,
exposure and the ravages of disease.
Trade and commerce were at stand
still. Towns and cities in the interior
were in ruins, and the plantations
were as a desert.
The United States began at once the
work Of reorganization and kept the
peace between Spaniards and Cubans.
After it took the reins of admnistra-
tion. on January 1, 1899, ii sent the
Spanish soldiers home to Spain and
kept the peace between the Cuban fac
tions. Under American adminiStra-
tion cities were cleaned. plantations
restored, roads built. schools estab-
lished and the Cubans compelled to be
tranquil.
Revolts were prevented by ctful
management. the turbulent Cuban
army was disbandeG in the face of
opposition on the part of the revo-
lutionary leaders, all departments of
government were reorganiZed and
Cubans were put in office.
Outlawry, which had prospered un-
der Spanish rule, was abolished. cor
ruption and intrigue were eliminated
from the governmental system, courts
were reorganized in the interest Of
justice, the prison system was re-
formed. schools were established in
every part of the island and sanitary
measures were enforced.
In three years Cuba. for the first
time in its history. had stable gov
ernment. a clean administration. with
safety from conta@ion in the cities and
safety from outlaws in the country.
For the first time. Cubans were pro-
tected in their rights, were encour-
aged to the free exercise Of the fran
chise and. for the first time the Gu
ban. whether merchant or planter. or
mechanic or field laborer. was sure of
his profits. or his earnings.
Frauds were unearthcd, and those
who practiced them, whether Ameri-
can or Cuban, were punished. The
hostile factions in Cuban politics were
carried through the period of consti-
tution-making. through Legislative and
presidential elections. and on May 20
the island was turned over to the ad-
ministrati0n of the Cubans with all
departments of government organized
and with S50O.o00 in the treasury. The
American officials and the American
army sailed away. The American flag
came down and the Cuban flag
went up.
That is a record whose only blemish
is too great generosity on the part Of
the United States. There is a record
which no other powerful nation ever
equaled in dealing with helpless,
weak and demoralized people. And
| yet there are democrats in the senate
who propose to make a party issue
of it!

n"urerous InImigrnnts.

Plattsburg. n. Y, June 6.-The
smuggling of Chinese across the
Canadian border, which of late has
been increasing, has commenced
anew in this vicinity. \ new compli-
cation that has arisen to bother the
immigration officials is a swarm of
Syrians and Armcnians who have
been forbidden by the government of,
ficials to enter this country because
of a dangerous disease with which
they are afflicted. affecting the scalp
and eyes. Recently two of this sort
were captured in st. Lawrence coun-
ty and also two others afflicted with
leprosy.

man, and the doorEeeper, who
thought that the stranger looked
like Stevens, Of Minnesota, allowed
him to enter. The man went upon
the floor, chatted with several MEM
bers in friendly fashion, and was
not discovered to he an imposter

was then rather cmphatically asked
to get out. "All right" he said,

Much is said about the Importance
of being good natured II the members
-. of q family would
maintain Il happy
of Good Cheer. h,.ol,,ld lifa PM
the point is often overlooked that good
nature is not to be achieved wholly
by an effort of the will. If one wishes
to cultivate it he must do the things
that promote it. For example, the
Boston Watchman suggests that 1t is
useless to tell a worn and tired woman
that she should be bright and cheerful
She cannot gain that mood simply by
willing. What she needs is rest, and
quiet afternoon nap supplemented
by the requisite volition will produce
the desired result. In other words, if
we think that certain moods are desir-
able we must take the requisite steps
to generate them. There is no use of
preaching good nature and cheerful
ness to ourselves unless we are willing
TO adjust the means to the end. The
trouble with many an irrita bic, cross
grained and sour member of the family
is that he or she does not take sutfi-
cient relaxation. The nerves get on
edge, and no amount of resolution will
impart cheerfulness. If you want to
be good-natured and companionable
and charming you must pay some at
tention to your digestion and nerves,
and your requirements for sleep.

ON CHOOSING DUTIES.
The Right Frame OF Mind In which
to Meet the obligations OF
Every Life

In his Phi Beta Kappa address at
harvard university last week Prof.
George II. Palmer used this illustra-
ton:
Awhile ago met literary man
whose work is of significant conse-
quence in the community, and / said
TO him: How does your book come
onT Rather badly he said, lust
now. An aged relative of mine has
fallen i'll. There is no place where
she can be comfortably disposed, and
she has been brought to my house
ana L must care for her. NV family
relations are disturbed and my work
largely set aside said to him:
have you no other duty, your duty
TO your book? He answered me:
one cannot choose his duty. Our
duty falls upon us. 1t says: Law
aside what you are undertaking and
take me."' "
We do not doubt that that answers
TO the experience of many of us.
When we start out In life we think
that we can direct our ways. A goal,
clear and shining, appears in the dis
lance We say TO ourselves surely It
Is n straight line from where / stand
to that point of vantage. / have only
TO keep to the line and walk straight
on to reach II. But before we have
gone far some duty arises, and saws:
Follow me; lay aside what you are
undertaking and take me-" and for a
true man there is no choice. The
voice of that unbidden specter In the
way is imperative. We do not take
summers walk but the necessity of
some fellow being whom we have
never seen before may make it nee
essary for us TO risk health or life.
We cannot refuse the call and look
at ourselves squarely in the face
again. We feel that pleasure or
profit OF life itself kept on terms like
those would not be worth having.
We do not choose our duties, and we
cannot honorably escape them.-Bos-
ton Waterman
