THE TROUBLE IN CUBA.

Disturbances in Cuba have aroused
interest in the future of our neighbor.
Ii seems the predictions that Cuba
will become part Of the United
States are ultimately to come true.
The people Of Cuba have not displayed
any marked ability in governing
themselves since they were placed in
full charge of the government, and if
they ever do it will greatly surprise
many in a good position to judge their
characteristics and ability. Under
this government they would enjoy a
greater prosperity and security, and
have the same measure of freedom
that the citizens of this country enjoy,
which should be sufficient for them.
Even now there is a possibility that
this government will have TO take a
hand in quelling the internal hostilities
which may only be forerunner OF
graver ones yet to come. This gov
eminent has pledged itself TO see that
a stable government is maintained in
Cuba, and that she will fearlessly dis
charge her obligation there is no
doubt. The following is part of the
Cuban constitution, placed there at
the instance Of the United States, and
which would indicate necessary inter.
ference should more serious trouble
arise there:
"Thst the COVER nment Of Cuba con
sents that tho United States may exer-
else the right to intervene for the
preservation of Cuban independence,
the maintenance of a government ade-
quate for protection of life, property
and individual liberty ana for dis.
charging the obligations with respect
to Cuba imposed by the treaty of
Paris on the United States now to be
assumed and undertaken by the gov
eminent of Cuba.

struotive. The number Of factories in
the United States in that half-cen-
tury period increased from 1a3.o26 to
512, $50; the number of wage earners
from 957,O69 to 5,316,s 500; and the
yearly product from i,o19, ooo,coo to
$18, 0t4, 900. 900. The product grew
thirteenfbld, the number Of wage
earners skiold and the number Of fac
tories fourfold. The production Of
coal in the same time increased sew
entyfold; of petroleum more than q
hundredfold; of pigir twenty four
fold, and of copper thirty -fivefold. In
1850 the yield of cotton was 1883, IT'S
bales, and in 1900 9, 436, 416 bales.
Our railway mileage grew from o.
021 miles In 1850 to 1914, 32l in 1900.

exports of manufactures has been
from s22s, 900, 900 in 1896 to over

these figures 1t is useless to deny the
results of Republican tariffs. They
are unparalleled in the history of the
world. Our workmen are the most
productive, as we'll as the best paid.
Their handiwork advances constantly
in the estimation Of foreign consum-
ers. The industrial and commercial
expansion that has come under Repub
lican tariffs speaks for itself, and in

THE SUNS CIRCULATION.

It is the custom of most of the best
newspapers of the country to publish
1t the head of their editorial column
the statement of their circulation fer
the month previous, and today the
Sun starts this feature and calls the
attention of advertisers to it. The
publishers of The Sun hold that in
buying space in newspaper man
should be shown what he gets rs well
a. il he were purchasing any Other
commodity. Advertisers appreciate
this fact, and are demanding il nova
days.
The Sun feels proud of its record.
The average for July, 1908 was 2f14.
or July last year it was just little
yer 100. This is an increase foi

Very little interest is taken in the
coming Democratic city primary in
Paducah, although it is only little
more than a month Off. Only one can
didate has announced for a position on
either the board of alderman or board
of councilmen, and although there are
a number of candidates for other
nominations, very little interest is
manifested in the races. One Of the
principal reasons for this indifference
is the fact that a lot of Democrats
are averse to going into an election
that indicates certain defeat for them.
The prospects are so good for the cleo
ton of the tickets the Democrats
don't put out that great many Dem.
ocrsts, judging from talk, will not be
easily induced to announce especially
for the offices tina, pay practically moth
ing. The stake is not sufficient &c

The village of Brookport seems to
boast Of great many hustlers. The
Toledo, st. Louis and New Orleans
railroad, which recently made pro.
position to enter Brookport for bo-
nus OF $4,000, is the branch Of the
Wabash which has also made Paducah
proposition. In Brookport they de-
cided to sell 200 lots to make mp the
amount, and have sold all but about
twenty of them. The indications are
that more than enough will be realized
from the sales to secure the road,
which speaks well for the enterprise
of Brookport's citizens.

A temporary quietus has been put
on the crusade against "non-intoxicst.
ing" drinks in Msyfeld by the city
judge, who in a prosecution Saturday
in his court decided invalid the newly
enacted ordinance fixing the license
for selling such drinks at $1,000
year. The decision seems TO have
been very sensible one, as until the
courts have held that the drinks legis-
lated against are intoxicating, or come
under the head Of "spirituous, vinous
or malt" liquors, the authorities can
not legally discriminate against the
sellers Of them and charge the latter
more than they charge the dispensers
of other non Intoxicating drinks. And
should the courts hold, which they
have not done yet, that the beverages
complained OF are Intoxicating, the
council then cannot license them a,
all, as Mayfel is local option town.
