Will be in evidence there again for a
great many years. There is. however,
rather more than a possibility that
there will be an infusion of Indian
blood into that body on March 4, 1903.
One of the leading candidates for the
Senate from Kansas is Charles Cur
It's, at present a representative from
that state in the House. Mr.. Curtis,
who is a lawyer of considerable abil-
ity and a politician of parts. has IN
dian blood in his veins and is proud of
his descent from the original and only
true Americans. One of Mr.. Curtis
opponents for the place rejoices in the
picturesque and more Indian-like name
of Bowersock, but he is merely a white
man from Ohio who moved over into
Kansas and persuaded the people to
send him to the House of Representa-
tiVes.

A serious problem facing Cuba is
that of the mortgage Indebtedness of
the property owners of the island. Ac-
cording to the census of 1899, taken
under authority of the United States,
the rural property of the island was
valued at 1854, S36. Against this
there was a mortgage debt of $780,
S97 249, or about so per cent. of the full
value of the property. The property
within corporate limits was valued at
$13S ,917, 059, and was mortgaged for
500, 729 .943, or almost so per cent of its
full value. These mortgages are prac-
tically all past due. 1t will be recalled
that during the progress of the war
proceedings in foreclosure We're sus-
pended at least once, and probably
twice, by military authority. Now.
however, military authority is at end
and the civil process comes once more
into operation. How are the mortgages
to be met? The most of the small
farmers and land owners haven't the
money with which to take up the in
terest, much less pay or reduce the
principle. Some method must be de-
vised for paying, scaling or extending
these mortgages. The holders of most
of the obligations are foreigners, who
would be apt to appeal to their govern
ment for protection if there were
suggestion of scaling or reputation.
The situation, therefore, is one calcu-
lated TO give the Cuban government
some concern. There would seem to
be the opportunity there for a Pier
pont Morgan to do a fine piece of con-
solidating and financing.

WHAT DOES THE ATTORNEY GEN.
ERAL SAY.

The Chicago News is authority for
the statement that the suit of the gov
eminent against the Northern Securi-
ties Company will, in all probability,
be withdrawn. This is the famous suit
against the merger brought under the
Sherman antitrust law. 1t will be re-
called that it startled Wall street, and
it was said at the time that the part
ners of j. p. Morgan hurried to Wash
ington as soon as the fact of the. filing
of the suit was announced.
1t is the understanding that the
Northern Securities Company merges
the Great Northern, the Northern Pa
cific and the Chicago. Burlington and
Quincy railroads. The Northern Pacific
and the Great Northern are competing
lines.
The story that is being told is that
friends of J. p. Morgan and j. ]. Hill
have been talking with the President
to such good effect that the govern
ment will withdraw its suit on con-
dition that some features of the North
ern Securities Company are so modi-
fed that the railroads in question will
continue to be competing lines.
Ii is doubtful If there is any truth
in this story for the reason that if the
suit were Withdrawn the President
could never make the country believe
that he was not friend of trusts and
that his party was not the protector
of trusts. Having begun the suit there
is nothing for the government to do
but 10 prosecute il 10 a conclusion.
The states which are interested in It
would never consent 20 it's withdrawal.

Two Children Stories.

A bright-looking 4-year-old boy of
this city, playing on the Atlantic City
beach last summer, struck up a passing
friendship with a group of little girls
about his own age, says the Philadel-
phia Times. The mother of one of the
girls, chaperoning the party was taken
with the prettiness of their new play
mate, and asked him:
What is your name, little boy?"

1t is sometimes amusing to note how
the members of Congress shoot at one
mark and hit another. Some days ago
speeches were made in the House
against Section II of the naval
personnel act. at least the provisions
of that act which have to do with re-
tirements under certain conditions
The speeches were warm and eloquent
with resepct to the matter, and after
a time a vote was taken and the mo-
ton to repeal was carried. Then it
was discovered that Section II had not
been touched by the vote, but the re-
pealing ballot had actually been taken
on Section 10. which everybody wanted
retained in the bill. The error, if al
lowed to stand. would wipe out the
construction corps of the service.
Luckily, the blunder was discovered in
time to vote Section 10 back into the
bill and Section II out of it,
