The cuban constitution provides that
all laws existing at the time of the
transfer shall be continued. This in
sures the permanency of the foregoing
vital amendment. The value OF this
amendment is better appreciated when
the fact Is understood that under the
new constitution the president OF Cuba
Is without the pardonlng power. Thus
an injustice in a lower court, If not
technical in character, could under the
former arrangement. not be remedied.
The strange thing about this condition
of affairs Is that the United States
authorities should not have remedied
1t sooner. However, late remedy Is
better than none. In coming years the
service done to Cuba by Senator Hanna
in his eagerness to aid II friend will,
we dare say, be appreciated at its true

The Suspense Ended.

r NCERTAiNTY is the bane of
business. The commercial
~ interests of Northeastern
Pennsylvania have for weeks
been under pail of uncertainty. This
has lifted. The community now knows
what to expect. Passion among the
representatives OF the mine workers
has outvoted reason: a challenge to
battle from the operators timed TO fit
their convenience has been accepted: !:
and there is no visible escape from II
battle to II finish.
Deporable AS this is. it has it's ad-
vantages. 1t fixes Il basis of calcula-
tlon and promises to focus and to end
in one grand struggle the unrest which
has pevmeated the industrial life Of
the anthracite coal fields since the
successful coal strike of two years ago.
Had the decision at Hazeton been
otherwise, there would doubtless have
been proongation Of turmoil and un-
certainty almost as hurtful to prosperity
as a wholesale strike. with Il strike
always in ugly prospect as the proba BILE

Meanwhile, the men, women and
children inhabting this portion of the
earth must live, and that insrres II
certain minimum of business. OF all
the communities in the coal fields
Scranton promises to suffer the least.
She has varied industries, mostly pros
porous; and the percentage of wages
earned in mining or allied to it is here
probably the smallest. Although it
would be idle TO deny that the strike
Will he IL burden felt by all. the only
thing to do is to face the inevitable
nanfully and hide the white feather.
Behind the cloud the sun shines
brightly and the cloud cannot obscure
it forever.
