Cuba's Commentaries.

If Cuba were an American state
there would be a rush of American
enterprise to the island that would
speedily quadruple the population.
The Cuban soil concededly has a nat
ural fertility not exceeded anywhere
in the world. But Cuba, though al
lied to us by strong treaty stipu-
lations, is not an American state.
Past experience has taught Ameri-
cans to be chary of Spanish rule,
whether It be colonial or home rule.
There is no other equal area in the
world that offers more magnificent
opportunities for Industrial develop
ment than this long and narrow
tropic island. If Cuba should ask to
be admitted into the great family
of states, and the request should
be granted by this government, there
would Immediately begin a wonder
full new era for the Pearl of the An
TILES. Following such a change of
status, not only American capital,
but personal. energetic enterprise
would be induced to take a part in
developing latent possibilities.-Bal

NEW DEPOT FOR CITY.

Where there is so much smoke
there must be some fire at least, and
with all the rumors of new depot
about to be built and of the pre-
liminary work being done, there
should at least something come of
it all.
There has been one primal hope
that the people of the city have had
constantly before them for the past
FIVE years and that was that the joint
roads entering this city would build
a depot in this city worth while.
Not much has been said against
the railroads in retaliation for the
horrible accommodation given them,
because the people were willing to
wait until that time came for the
railroads to build; that a station
which would reflect the commercial
importance of the town would be
given us.
II is a waste of time to talk of
the present structure. as all are
aware of its present and past con
dition. II is a pen, not even worth
the name of station. Had 1t not
been for this constant expectation
that in due time the city would be
given place worthy the name of
a station. the city would have con-
demned the building long ago, as
would have been done by any other
place than Grand Junction. Had
such condemnation proceedings been
taken by the city, the railroads
would have had no kick coming at
all, as the sanitary conditions alone
We're more than sufficient to have

city
But all will be forgiven If the
railroads do what it is anticipated
they will do. and which the begin
ming was made yesterday, build a
beautiful modern structure of which
they, as well as the general public,
will be proud.

THE CITY BEAUTIFUL.

Some people in this city. who be-
lieve that the sun comes up over
the Grand mesa simply to shine on
the Grand valley, and that it has
no other duty to perform until it
goes down behind the Wasatch on
the west, would flare up and be-
come quite indignant if told that
Grand Junction had no civic pride
compared to other towns on the line
of the Rio Grande of about the same
size as this city
But the sun does shine on other
places. and those places are being
made more beautiful because of a
little bit more of civic pride than
we have on tap here at present.
Take one city which we will per-
nit others to compare with us in
commercial Importance, the city of
Salida, which has grown beautiful
in the past few years. A movement
was begun there year or more ago
to make the city beautiful that city
that has brought forth rich results.
You can see for yourselves one nota-
Bile improvement as you ride through
Sal1ua on lne CHfS-Lne parking OF
the land on the opposite side of the
Arkansas river. north of the sta
tion. In that one Improvement alone
much beauty is added to the city.
But there have been other and
greater ones.
What is desired to do is calling
the attention of the citizens of Grand
Junction to the necessity of beauti-
flying this city. No better money
can be spent, and If we are slow
to profit by what others are doing,
we must not complain If we are
left in the rear in the running. So
far as our commercial supremacy is
concerned, there is no need to be
alarmed; but there are other things
in life that men of wealth look at
besides the mere mercenary one of
money, while it is always considered
the all-important one. Let us talk
a little more hereafter of the neces-
sity of beautifying our city and the
results will become manifest to us
at once.

For some inexplicible reason there
is a pronounced sympathy for Nan
Patterson. the young Florodora
girl now on trial for her life for
the alleged killing of Caesar Young.
The question to solve for psycholo-
gists is. Would this same sympathy
be apparent were Nan a long-nosed
harradin. who would rather look at
a crocodile than a man? To the un-
learned psychologist the question
would readily be answered in the
negative. II is beauty and beauty's 5
ways that are attracting sympathy
to Nan Patterson; yet we believe
that she is innocent of the crime.
even though things are against her.
Young's conscience was his greatest
burden and II overwhelmed him, in

brain befuddled by whiskey and
mind unbalanced. he took the easi-
est route to secure oblivion.

The Old Deceiver.


The Indian fakir comes before his
audience and begins his perform
ance with some simple tricks of leg
erdemain. When the audience be
comes deeply interested he tosses a
rope ladder into the air and causes
his attendants to ascend and des-
cend that ladder in the air. 1t is
all real. Still when a photograph is
taken of the scene, the negative re-
veals nothing but the fakir. The
rest was all an Illusion. The audi
ence was hypnotiZed. But the pleas
ure given by the fake exhibition was
Just as great as though it had been

OF course Santa Claus is a fake:
the legends of a thousand years, the
lessons of Charity which have sound
ed down the stairs of time for al
most twice thousand years, in the
subtle chemistry of love, have made
their Impressions on the hearts of
childhood: to children Santa Claus
is real benignant, divine being.
Why break the charm; why tell the
children that photograph would
reveal no saint. no reindeers. no
sleigh, To them the picture is COM

plastic hearts in love, and no matter

If one does not believe it. let such
a one watch while the Christmas
purchases are being made. Whole
families become the perfect embodi-
ment of deceit. The old man in a
slulking way gathers his treasures
and secrets them like an old wood
rat. The mother in n furtive way
one morning, on a plea that she is
going to market, makes swift pur-
chases that she had planned the

wants needles or thread or hooks

tells the children to all be sure to
stay at home until she returns; that
she will come right back.

Bad Manners at Weddings.

Many a prospective bride and
groom of today make plans for the
approaching wedding with as much
secrecy as if they were stealing
chickens. They long to slip into
some little church or parsonage
around the corner and have the
knot tied with no one but them
selves and the minister the wiser.
They await the inevitable hour with
fear and trembling. What is the
reason for this? 1t is the forebod-
ing spectacle of the barbarism, ex-
pressed in foolish, clownish pranks.

will follow the ceremony. Unless
the groom be shrewd enough to out
