those members of the Cuban House Of
Representatives who have been inclined
to minimize the value Of a reciprocity
treaty with this country have shown
themselves ready to give up bird in the
hand for one in the bush.
Fortunately for the welfare Of the
island, President PALMA has evinced
more sagacity and foresight and has
signed a protocol in pursuance Of which
a treaty can be promptly framed at
Washington. We hope and believe that
such treaty will be approved by two
thirds of our Senators. and there now
seems to be no reason to apprehend
prolonged opposition to it on the part
of the Cuban House of Representatives.

the execution of England's intention to
impose countervailing duties on Russian

Out Of the Banana Belt blows fresh
breeze of thought. A Minnesota Demo-
cratic journal the KimbaH Graphic. in
spects the Democratic sages and finds
them all wanting but two:
Mr.. CLEVELAND labored with New Jersey-and
1t went Republican. Mr. BRYAN delivered scores
OF speeches In Nebraska and Colorado and they
went Republican. MI HuL delused New York
with speeches and It went Republican Mr., Con
NAN made powerful still hunt In Maryland--and
It went Republican, But Col. wArTERsoY carried
Kentucky, and a country doctor named GAHyIN
captured Rhode Island for the Democrats. The
logical ticket for 1904 Is WATrKasoN and GARviS "
Strictly speaking. Col. WATTERsoN did
not carry Kentucky and Kentucky did
not have to carry Col. WATTfRsoN.
Kentucky carried itself. doubtless be-
cause it promised 20 reward Col. WAT
TERsoN's self-abnegation. If Kentucky
doesn't want him as Governor, it must
be because she has nobler dreams for

calls, the Colonel will always be all ears
Col. WATTERsoN's qualifications as a
candidate are obvious. For more than
generation he Las distinguished him
self by his rare judgment, his wise and
thoughtful character his modesty and
reticence and the irenical nature of his
too infrequent utterances. Thus he has
endeared himself to his party, avoided
enmities and accumulated friends. Safe.

Railway Automobiles.

Adespatch from Paris saws that France
is to have an automobile railway. The
new line is to be opened in June next
and. in tho opinion of NJ NoBLEMAIRE.
one Of the foremost authorities on rail-
reading in Europe. this new system of
transit Is bound to be revolutionary
NJ. NOBLEMAIRE believes that it will re-
suit in the total abandonment Of loco
motives.
In a report tn the State Department
about ten months ago United States
Consul HAYNES, at Roucn, in France,
described the developments which were
then going on abroad in this direction.
He called attention to the fact that the
Belgian State Railway was employing
automobile cars with excellent results.
Each of them was 40 feet long and con-
tanned seats for fifty-three passengers.
Their average rate Of speed was eighteen
miles per hour, and their maximum
speed thirty-four miles per hour.
Several interesting trials of electric
automobiles have been made by the
Italian Mediterranean Railway and the
French Northern Railway The cars
used on the Italian Mediterranean road
have speed of twenty-scven miles per
hour. The Russian State Railway has
been experimenting with steam-propellcd
coaches of the double-decked sort. seat
