SUGGESTS COLONIZATION.
New England Emigrant Aid Society
Model for Cuba.
To the Editor Of the State Journal:

To the Editor of the State Journal:
In a recent issue of your paper / gave
a few of the reasons why Cuba should
be absorbed by US benevolently as
simulated" Probably more than three
IOuEthS OF our people would vote for its
annexion, but the mass of them leave
the matter to the politicians: the most
OF whom now, as ever before Gin such
cases), ask, What is there in this for
me-" and, if they can see no personal
advantage, decline to devote time and
thought to it. Moreover. this is not, at
present, case for political action
The United States needs Cuba and,
sooner or later. will absorb it, The
longer it remains Independent the more
difficult will the problem become the
more active will be the outside opposi-
ton as well as the internal hostility
and the greater the danger of action by
US of which we will subsequently be
ashamed. Most Cubans belong to the
so-called Latin race. Naturally proud
and ambitious they have good reason
for feeling hurt and angry at many
things that have been said and done by
some of our people. 1t is therefore not
surprising that they are very generally
opposed to annexatiOn-and these sen
timents cannot now be easily changed
by mere political action. Much might
have been accomplished by the prompt
adoption Of a liberal reciprocity policy,
but the paltry concessions that Presi-
unwilling senate are more likely to irri-
tate than to sOothe.
Undoubtedly we and they are rapidly
drifting apart. and must continue TO do
so until we adopt a more winning pol
icy-one that will tie the two regions
indissolubly together-and the surest
and quickest way to do this will be for
a sufficient number of our people to
make Cuba their home. Nor need this
be so difficult matter as some people
imagine, provided the American set
tiers have a reasonable amount of com
mon sense, love of justice, and altru-
ism. The following boiled down facts
should be kept constantly in mind:
l. Mere exploiters" who expect to
live on its people will do more harm
than good. 1t is intelligent producers,
people that expect to readily earn their
own living. and that will be polite.
tolerant and kindly as well as honest,
in their relations with the natives that
Cuba needs, and it is only this class of
people that can secure the hearty good
will of the natives.
2. Cuba is no place for those that en-
JOY cold weather; but millions Of those
of our people that dread the cold would
be healthier. happier and more pros
porous there than here.
g. The demand for mechanics and
wage earners. generally, is small; but
there is opening for hundreds of thou
sands of agriculturists, manufacturers
and winter home makers, with some
means-and wherever these locate a de-
mand for the other classes will follow.

Americans to settle in colonies-for both

BUYS KANSAS LAND.
Ex-senator Mason Makes an Invest
ment for His Daughters.

Chicago, May 2s.-The purchase of $50
acres OF land in Cove county, Kansas,
by Rose. Winifred and Ethel Mason,
daughters of ex-senator William E. Ma

purposes. The deal was made by their
father

5. The number of farm, garden. and
orchard products that can be made
profitable is very large, but each agri-
culturist should select his home with
special reference tc what he wishes to
raise-or adapt his crops to his loca-
tion-and in the selection of sites for

portant.
If Cuba is to be wooed and won by
American emigrants there will have to
be wisely organized movement, and 1
know Of no better model than the New
England Emigrant Aid society that
saved Kansas to freedom. It collected
and broadcasted information about
Kansas. 1t brought together those that
wished to move in parties and secured
for them cheap transportation, etc, and
1 know of no reason why a similar or
ganization unselfshly managed should
be less successful in this case Nor
should any more time be lost as, at the
best. several months would be required
to get it into operation.
There is much more that I should like
to say here but space forbids. and I
Will add only one thought. In spite of
the discouraging facts upon which pes
simists dwell the world is really grow
ing better; and the reason is that a
constantly increasing number of people,
from year to year, live a little nearer in
accord with the Golden Rule. The most
of them are never heard of but their
lives are moral leaven. Tens of thous-
ands Of people feel the STRINGS of a
missionary spirit but because they can
neither preach nor write, assume that
there is nothing they can do This is a
serious mistake. In great numbers of
cases their righteous lives are doing as
much for humanity as some of the mis-
siOnaries with whom they long to work.
1t is however true that many of them
and I submit that. for some of them,
Cuba is such a field Its people need
their personal example and help even
more than ours do-and their presence
there is also needed as a restraint upon,
or to counteract. the influence of a class
that is sure to go, and be even worse
curse there than it IS here.
The reason why Kansas has stood so
high morally is because so many of its
first settlers were inpelled to come here
by other than purely selfish motives
and their influence is still felt The fu-
ture well-being of Cuba, and the best
interests of the United States, and Of
humanity at large demand not only the
speedy Americanization of Cuba, but
also that il shall be directed by genuine
altruists. I knew Of no other place
where those physically fitted for life in
warm climate. who wish to leave the
world the better for their having lived
i In it can do so much effective work IN
that direction. with little pecuniary sac
riffce (and often with great profit TO
themselves by the mere force of the
kind of lives they wish to lead as can
be done in Cuba at this time.
Where are the young men and women

resident general at Tunis. That off,
cial found there an italian named OAR
CO, who has a large family and Gu
rious history. The Italian had to leave
his native land owing to an ARRAY in
1850. He went to Galita. and, in ex-
ploring the island, entered a cavern,
where, just like the mariner whom the
imagination of the elder Dumas turn
ed into a millionaire, he found a
treasure. In a large hole were heaps
of Spanish doubloons and piastres and
many gold and silver coins from va
rious countries. Signor Darco long
sat dazzled before the doubloons. Then
he selected a few bagfuls of these
coins and started for Naples, where
he changed the old money, supposed
to have been left in the cavern by the
pirates, or corsairs, who once infested
the Mediterranean, for current cash OF
the day. He returned toward his is
land. staying for a time at La Gale,
in Algeria, place much frequented by
Italian fishermen from Tore del Gre
co, on the Bay of Naples, and other
places in that direction. At La Gale
Darco married an Italian woman,
bought collection of agricultural inn
PIGMENTS, carpenters tools and provi-
sions, started for his treasure island,
and founded a family there. Signor
Darco is still a vigorous and energetic
person, and he refuses to accept
French nationality or to acknowledge
the jurisdiction of the resident general
in Tunls. He went recently to Rome.
with the intention of inducing the
Italian government to take up his case
against France, but he was cold shoui-
