purely" said Mr.. Heath, but OF course
national and political issues are always my
greatest interest. The relative position OF
the republicans and the democrats now is
a peculiar one. The democrats are vainly
casting for issues for the next campaign.
They have a hook and line out in every
conceivable spot. and are beating about far
and wide for the desired rock on which
to lay their foundations.
Meanwhile the policy of the republicans
will be to lie quiet, and that lie what they
are doing. They adopt this method be-
cause they feel that they can successfully
meet the democrats on any issue the latter
may unearth and that no aggressive initia-
tive on the part OF the republican party
will be necessary to insure success this
time.
This same condition promises a Ions
session of congress, for the minority party
will doubtless make the session a prominent

why wheeler shouts.

IT had just left Washington when Rep
resentative Wheeler made that speech in
congress. 1t was most unfortunate. l i'm
agine that one reason why he committed so
grave an error was that he felt no restraint
from his constituency. 1t is comprised
largely Of Bryan classes and there are
almost no foreigners In 1t. Mr.. Wheeler
therefore feels that he can take considera-
BILE liberties with such people. A different
constituency would not endure 1t.
"On the Cuban sugar question / stand
strongly for no reduction Of the tariff, but
for establishing a rebate system whereby

would let the benefits go to the big planters

and not Cubans in interests or anything
else.
"a great man OF the bigger sugar men
are Spaniards, with homes in Spain, who are
merely in the Cuban sugar business for
what there is in 1t. They, and not the
Cubans, would derive the profits of a tariff
reduction. II we get the same benefits "a
