Gen. Gomez as President would In all prob
ability veto 1t. Yet that would not at all
imply anti-Americanism. In conversation
on that particular subject Gen. Gomez
strongly expressed the opinion that tine
relations between Cuba and the United
States should and must be Of the closest ana
most intimate nature, but they must Do
based on warm friendship and gratitude
and not on Cuban fear Of American. opinion
or on American effort to impose upon Cuba.
The view Is sound and should be that OF
all Cubans and all Americans We want
neighbors whom we can respect. and no man
respects the ighbor who fears him.
A little friction has arisen In the Gomez
camp, however, and one or two directions
have been announced. Gen. Gomez course
In the matter has been highly creditable to
him. He has even submitted tentative
proposal to withdraw, promising loyal sup
port to any one whom the party saw Mt 10
nominate in his place. The charge OF carp
ing critics that this position is taken In fear
OF defeat appears to be quite without foun-
dalton. Forecasts OF the election give him.

him, the electoral votes Of Havana. Puerto
Principe and Santiago provinces, or total
OF 40 votes out OF 81, with a strong chance
in Santa Clara and fighting chance in
Pnar del Rio in addition. The most difficult
obstacle for the Liberals will be the Govern
ment machine, now In the hands OF the
Moderates, who will doubtless use 1t with all
possible effect.
One factor in the campaign should be
removed II a proper way can be found Tor
its removal. An effort Is being made to play
the United States in the Cuban game by the
circulation, among the less intelligent OF
the Cuban peasantry, of rumors OF Ameri-
can interference in support Of the present
Government. These could only be counter
acted by an official announcement OF Ameri-
can neutrality in Cuban politics. II such
arguments persist, It Is possible that an
effort may be made to force a declaration
of the American attitude. The circulation
of stories OF American Intervention is an
insult to the United States and disgrace to
the party whose members give them cur
rency. Should such declaration be made,
those who circulate such dirty little rumors
would probably find themselves and their
party the greatest sufferers from the results
Of their course.
This is, as ooncisely as 1t seems possible
to state it, the political situation in Cuba
to-day, six months before the election.

Conner Union Fifteen Year. Ago.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Str: The article In

Amend the Constitution.

The Hon. CHARLES WARREN FAIR
BANKS has already accepted the office
of President of the United States, from
March 4, 1909. He will not compel Mr..
ROOSEVELT to retire before the expi-
ration of his present term, but when its
course is run he will take the vacant
place. He has already been nominated,
elected inaugurated. So far as he is
concerned, the preliminaries are over.
The Hon. ALBERT JEREMIAH BEvER-
IDGE has also accepted the Presidency.
His present purpose is to allow Mr..
ROOSEVELT to serve until March 4, 1909
Mr.. BRvERIDGE may think it wise to
assume Office before that date, but now
he has no plan to cut short Mr.. RoosE-
vELT's official career. Mr.. BEvERIDGEs
acceptance of the Office carries with it
nomination and election. Like Mr..
FAIRBANKS, he has gone through all the
preliminaries.
Thus the United States has two Presi-
dents-elect ready to take office whep Mr.
ROOSEVELT retires. A delicate situa-
ton arises. The Constitution makes
provision for but one President at time.
When that ancient document was written
there were no statesmen like the Hon.
CHARLES WARREN FAIRBANKS and the
Hon. ALBERT JEREMIAH BEvER1pGE.
No provision was made for them. The
Fathers did not dream that such would
ever exist. But that is not the fault
of Messrs. FAIRBANKS and BEvERIpGE.
They did not write the Constitution. They
accept no responsibility for it's crime of
omission. lit gets in their way, so much
the worse for it.

Secretary Hitchcock.

No one except the Hon. ETHAN ALLEN
HITCHCOCK can tell what pressure was
brought to bear on the Secretary OF the
Interior to induce him to "let up on
United States Senator JOHN Nipple
MITCHELL when that distinguished per-
son was found to be involved in the ore"
gon land frauds. Mr.. HITCHCOCK will not
tell He is not that kind of man.
Senator MrTcHELLrhe adopted that
name when it became convenient, years
ago, for JOHN HIrPLE to disappear-was
the valuable accomplish OF band OF
land pirates who sought to make their
fortunes by robbing the Government OF
the United States, that is, the people OF
America. Just as many otherwise thor
oughly respectable persons regard eva
sion of the customs and internal revenue
laws as at least justifiable, many others
think it no harm to rob the Government
of land. Mr.. HIPPLE-MITcHELL entered
the employ Of a party of such lawbreak-
ers and aided their schemes by his pro-
fessional advice and official influence.
He did it with his eyes open, knowing
that he was violating the law and rem
dering himself liable to fine and impris-
onment. He counted on his wealth, his
office, his great political influence to
protect him from punishment.
He counted without Secretary HITCH
COCK, however. He looked to find an
easy going, tolerant, not too inquisitive
figurehead in the Interior Department.
Instead he found quiet, thorough, stiff
necked, honest man, who remembered
nothing except his oath of office when
the prosecution Of thieves, big or little.
became necessary, H1PPLE-MITcHELL
must have been surprised when he
sounded the full depths Of ETHAN
ALLEN HITcHcocK's conception OF a
Federal officeholders duty.
Secretary HITCHCOCK has not attitu-
dinized for the benefit Of his reputation
or to increase his popularity. Where ne
saw a wrong he righted it as a matter OF
course. The fact that he would be first
to disclaim special credit for doing his
work thoroughly, intelligently and effect
lively does not alter the other fact that
he has earned the gratitude of the public
by the manner in which he Is performing
the duties OF his Office.

Wholesale Raids on Vice-the Phiia-
dclphia Example.

Probably there is no truth in the crude
police assertion that large number Of
Philadelphia society women were
caught in the wholesale raids on disor-
derlv houses in that city last Saturday
night; but it SEEMS to be beyond doubt
that a good many women were arrested
who were far from belonging to the aban-
doned class. The attempts at suicide,
the hysteric appeals for mercy which are
described in all the accounts of the affair,
show that many of the victims of the
police dragnet had everything to lose
through the exposure which their cap
ture rendered inevitable.
Owing to the peculiar way in which
Philadelphia treats women taken in such
raids there seems to be little hope that
any of these unfortunates can escape
utter ruin. No distinction whatever was
made between them and members OF tbs
professionally vicious class when they
were arraigned in court. They were all
held for trial at some future date, and
those who were not able to get bail were
locked up. When they come up for trial
their shame will be revealed not only to
their own families and friends but to the
whole city, If the policy of treating
them exactly like the regular inmates OF
disorderly houses is carried out they
will be sent to Jail for longer or shorter
periods.
BY a strange perversion Of justice,
while the women offenders Of the occa-
sional type are thus treated with the ut
most rigor of the law, their counterparts
among the men we're all let go with the
nominal penalty Of $40 fines. Whatever
justice there might he in thus discrim-
mating between women who made vice
the pursuit of their lives and men who
were only incidentally vicious, it will
seem to some persons monstrous that
casual lapse from virtue should be made
to cost women all that they hold dear
while their companions OF the same
moral grade buy their way to social
safety with a trihing sum Of money.
But far above this detail is the broad
question which this monumental exam
pie of proceeding not uncommon in our
cities once morf forces upon the atten-
ton of the pub &c: Is the wholesale raid

answers the slightest turn OF the wheel
and is manageable in every way.
There is no telling how far PEARY may
be tempted to push her into the ice II
lead opens to the north Of Greenland, as
not infrequently occurs. She has ten times
the resources for ice work that were pos
sessed by the Alert, the vessel that mace
the highest northng in that part OF the
frozen sea which PEARY is to enter. But
whether or not the Roosevelt is to shorten
his sledge journey by carrying him part
way between Greenland and the pole,
she will be his home and headquarters
during his attempt to reach the northern
apex of the world.
1t may be that the channels from smith
Sound to the Arctic Ocean will not be ice
choked this year, for in some seasons they
are comparatively free OF Ice. In that
case the explorer will have little diff

coasts OF the American Arctic, where he
is to spend next winter.
But if ice blocks the way, as is probable,
a few weeks more will witness the begin
ming of the hardest fight between the
Arctic pack and a ship that polar ex-
ploration has ever seen. The whole plan
of PEARY's coming attempt to reach the
North Pole is based upon his ability to
reach the northern coast of the Arctic
archipelago this season and use it as
base for his sledge journey next spring
His ship was built to make this fight in
the Smith Sound channels. If there is
need for it the Roosevelt will take the
aggressive as no ship has ever done be-
fore, and we shall learn before very long
how far human skill and ingenuity are
able as yet to overcome the formidable
obstruction of the Arctic ice pack.
