REPUBLICAN, CONVENTION.

The Republican National Convention
will be held in Chicago, beginning at noon
on June 81 next. The Republican Nation,
al Committee met in Washington last week
and after selecting the city and date last
Saturday adjourned subject to call.
Pittsburg and St. Louis were rivals of
Chicago for the convention. Each city
was we'll represented in oratory before
the committee, and each also had cash
offers to make. Pittsburg offered $780,
600, Chicago So, 900 and a hall. St. Louis
$4,000 and a hall. The vote stood 3 for
Chicago, Z for Pittsburg and l for st.
Louis.
The work of the committee was har-
monious throughout. Its open session
was attended by many Republican mem
bers of the House. Several minor ques-
lions were referred to special committees.
Included in this list was the representa-
ton asked for by Porto Rico, Hawaii and
Luzon; the socialistic problem and the
political rights of the negro.
A committee. headed by Senator Scott,
of West Virginia, was named to make all
arrangements for the convention.

TO HOLD EARLY CONVEN-
TlON?

A special dispatch to the New York
Herald" from Washington Sunday says:
There is a movement in the Democratic
party to smash precedent and have the
Democratic convention held before that
of the Republicans. A Democrat of na-
tional prominence said today that he was
in favor of such a move and that it may
be made. The republican convention hav-
ing been called for June 81 in Chicago, it
is probable that the Democratic onven
ton, if the plan set forth above is carried
out, will be held the first week in June.
The drift is strongly in favor of Chicago,
although efforts will be made by St. Louis,
Milwaukee and other cities to obtain the
convention. Just what the strategy of
holding the Democratic convention at
such an early day is has not yet developed,
except that Democrats say that they want
a long campaign. The Democratic Ma
tional Committee will meet in Washing
ton on January II to fix the time and
place for holding the national conven-
ton"

SENATE PASSES
CUBAN TREATY.

The long drawn out struggle to make
reciprocity between the United States and
Cuba an accomplished fact was brought
to an end Wednesday when the Senate,
by a vote of 81 to 1S, passed the bill in
which is incorporated the treaty with the
little southern republic. The bill now
goes to the President for signature, and
the matter will then be a closed Incl
dent.
But one republican voted against the
bill-Mr. Bard, of California. He has a
beet sugar constituency and he has all
along been antagonistic to the treaty.
Among the democrats whe voted fer
the treaty was Mr.. German.
The final vote came at the close of a
day which was marked by a debate which,
while at all times animated, was never
acrimonious. The principal speeches We're
made by MI. Spooner for the bill and by
Mr.. Bailey against it. Both senator's were
subjected to frequent Interruptions. In
his remarks Mr.. Bailey referred to the re-
cent agreement of the democratic eau
Gus to stand solidly on party questions
and warned the republicans that in the
future they could not depend on strang-
Cling democratic votes in support of re-
publican party measures regardless of
whether they were or were not in accord
with democratic doctrine.
The bill passed carries into execution
the treaty between the United States and
Cuba which was ratified last March. The
treaty provides for a reduction of 20 per
cent. from the rates of duty under the
Dingley law on all articles imported into
the United States and a varying reduction
of from 20 to 40 per cent. from the estab-
lished Cuban duty on articles imported
into Cuba from the United States.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, DC, December IA h 1903
Mr.. EDITOR democrats in the House
take advantage of every opportunity to
expose the attitude of the party in power
on the great national questions which con-
fronts the country. During a discussion
of the pension appropriation, the debate
suddenly turned on the Panama affair
and the democratic members Immediately
ass allied the attitude Of the President to.
ward the revolution in Panama.
Mr.. Williams speech was especially
able. He said in part, Zone of these facts
is that the so called republic of Panama
is an abortion upon the earth, mishegot-
ten, hag horn, and, to use the words of
William Shakespeare, ditch delivered.
Not all the history or all the talk in the
world can do away with that one simple,
plain, obvious fact"
Another fact remains, and that is this,
that this is the first time in the history OF
the United States that we have ever inter
fered in the internecine affairs of Central
or South America. All the gentleman's
(Mr. Hit, republican, subtlety and all Of
his diplomacy cannot make that fact
vanish into thin air. The gentleman has
virtually confessed that we have served
notice upon the ~confederacy of Colombia
that if she dares land a soldier out side
of the strip of trans-isthmian commerce,
anywhere within the confines of the new
born republic of Panama, the United
States will treat it as an act of war;"
THAT confession involves a confession
of the fact that we have, for the first time,
taken the hitherto unprecedented step of
interfering in the domestic broils of Cen
trail and South American countries. The
gentleman cannot change these facts"
1.-THE gentleman says we have not been
greedy and then refers to the manner in
which we treated Cuba. If the demo-
cratic party and a few republicans had
mo- hedged up and bound this govern
ment in the two clauses which compel us
to give Cuba her freedom and indepen-
dence, you would have treated Cuba just
as you treated the Philippines and you
know it. Nothing else can restrain
you"
The republican national committee is
in session here deciding upon the time
and place to hold the coming party con-
vention. Some time in June is the most
favored date, and Chicago the most likely
place, although St. Louis is making a
strong bid for the convention. C%onspicu-
Gus members of the committee are Perry
s. Heath, who is involved in the postal
scandals and saved by the Statute of
Limitations and James Edward Addicks
who represents Delaware, in the COM
mittee but not in the Senate. Heath re-
fuses to resign his position and has not

1T HAS COME.

The Washington Post of yesterday, in
commenting editorially on the passage of
the Cuban reciprocity bill by the. Senate
on Wednesday, says:
1T will come-as sure as fate" said
President Roosevelt in a memorable
speech at Pittsburg in the early summer
of 1902. The lit" to which the President
referred, and of the coming of which he
was 50 firmly confident, was Cuban reci-
procity; and that prediction was made on
the heels of the defeat Of that measure
after a long and bitter fight inside of the
Republican party in Congress. The means
employed to compass its defeat included
q combination between a minority of Re-
publican Representatives and the Demo-
cratic side of the House. That occurred
in the first session of the last Congress.
The President depended on public opin-
ion to give victory to the cause which he
had inherited from his predecessor, and
to which he believed the faith of the ma
ton had been solemnly pledged. He left
to the electorate the task of redeeming
that pledge. The election of Republican
majority in the present House determined
to keep the national faith unstained vim
dicated the Presidents confidence in the
people.
While it cannot be said with due regard
for the truth that there has been an en-
tire absence of self-interest on either side
of the great conflict, it is strictly true to
say that to an overwhelming majority of
the American people this has from the
first been regarded from the standpoint
of national honor. When this nation
created the Cuban republic it did no COM
NIT the folly of giving Cuba independence.
Our Congress, acting quite as much in the
interest of the Cubans as of ourselves,
and doing its plain duty by both, legis-
lated into tho Cuban constitution provi-
sions which make the little republic a ward
Of the United States. With these provi-
sions went the pledge that their accept
anee would be followed by such trade
concessions as are now assured.
This is the second of the fierce f%actional
fights that have ragged in the Republican
family over tariff questions relating to he
great Caribbean islands. The first came
on Just before the second Mckinley cam
paign. 1t seemed for a time to menace
the continuance of Republican ascenden-
cy. Congress was on Que side; the press
and the people on the other. The press
and the people thought that they were
supporting the administration. But it
turned out that the administration had
modified its policy and was in substantial
agreement with the Republican majority
in Congress. The suddenness with which
that war of words subsidized and the fac
lions got together has no parallel in the
annals Of pacification. 1t remains to be
seen whether the pacification, after this
much longer and far more bitter conten-
ton, will be complete.
Even q little start in the reduction of
tariff taxes that are admittedly and no.
toriously toe high may excite an irrepres.
sible demand for further operations on
that line. There is abundance CT room in
that direction.

DIED IN THE VATICAN.
yolponi, Secretary Of the Congregation
Suddenly stricken.

itome, July s.--AIthough the condi-
tIon Of the pope is stiIl the center Of In
tef4st, the case of Monsignor yolponI
whose death occurred early this morn
Ing, has attracted much attention. not
only because Of his office OF secretary
~ the consistorial congregation, to
which he had just been appointed by
Pope Leo, but also on account OF the
manner In which he was seized with
illness; and II is hardly possible 10 de-
scribe the sensation and condition
which prevailed at the Vatican when
II was announced that ne had died,
shortly after the doctors had stated
that all hope Of saving his life was
gone
From the moment he, was stricken
and fell to the floor, Monsignor Voiponi
lost entirely the power Of speech and
the use OF the entire right side OF his
body and he was apparently unconsci-
Gus when he died. II has been ascef-
tained that the cause Of death was GER
ebral congestion.
Great care has been taken to keep
The news OF Monsignor yoiopnPs illness
and death from the pope.
II Will be impossible TO keen the news
Of the death Of Monsignor yolponi
from the pope, as the office Of secre-
tary Of the consistorial congregation, 70
which Pope Leo appointed the deceased
prelate July 5--the last appointment
made BY his holiness-must be filed
without delay in view Of the possibility
OF a papal interregum, az 1t Is known
that at the momfnt the pope dies the
secretary OF the consistorial congrega-
ton whose career Is from that time as
sured, as, according to-custom, he Is to
be the first cardinal to be appointed by
the new pope The sarcastic humor Of
the Romans regaies itself even al this
solemn and sad moment. The remark
has been heard that Pope Leo, not salts
fed at having killed all the cardinals
created by his predecessor, except Car
dinal orgelia, and over 100 of those Gre
ated BY himself, now begins to kill
those to be created by his successor.
