President Palma and His Cabinet

The resignation Of President PALMA's

maintained an Independent position. A

BROOKLYN and the Nenr Future.

An inevitable sequel OF the develop
ment OF Brooklyns railroad facilities
and natural advantages will be her rapid
and extensive development as manu-
featuring community. We should not
be surprised if the capital so embarked
in Brooklyn during the next decade ex-
ceeded that similarly embarked in any
other community. We look for mar
vellous growth in every material direc-
ton in that borough in the immediate
future. Az for population it is not too
much 10 expect that within ten years
Brooklyn will nearly double such is the
extraordinary effect and vitalizing force
Of the free extension of railroads, the
opening OF bridges. tunnels and other
means Of communication.
To meet all this expansion 1t must be
borne in mind that Brooklyn will need
very much more than double her present
water supply. This requirement should
be taken in hand without delay, and we
have no manner of doubt that il mas al

reaching plans of Mayor MCCLELLAN.

cultural production. They hold up before
Northern farmers the incentive of far
cheaper and richer land than these can
get at home and TO foreign immigrants
the same inducement Ia offered. Both

does ht,le money now go so far in the
purchase OF land highly desirable for

The Worlds Progress.

Once in a while the food gates OF a
suffusei intellect burst open and an
epoch making idea startles the world.
II is now some thirty or forty years since
a de p thinker in one of the red clover
regions Of the West preached his scheme
for having shift of workers in his
apiary by crossing honeybees with
lightning bugs, so that half his force
could see to work in the night
It was about the year 1909, if our mem
ory is not at fault. that one OF the active
minds Of the Chesapeake shore con-
ceived the idea OF training domestic
ducks to serve as decoy5 for wild ducks
But similar experiment had already
been made by a sportsman of the Pacific
Northwest and had come 70 nagSht b.
reason OF the fact that the partly trained
domestic ducks became 'sh )tted, so to
speak, by scooping up shot from the
sand beneath the shoal waters where
for years there had been many ducks and
much shooting at them. With the weight
thereof distributed unevenly within
them they presented an appearance so
unnatural and weird that instead of
being assuring to the lowering wild
fowl II was positively alarming.
Later, in Boston young man OF
wealth and leisure contemplated produc-
ing in perfection the streak OF lat and
streak OF lean pork so highly priced in that
town for the Sunday morning bean pot
by blending a certain European variety
of swine of dachsh1nd conformation
with the best examples Of porcine adj
posity raised in the Berkshire hills OF his
native Commonwealth. A year or 50
later. about 1902, there was talk Of a
further and vastly more interesting ex-
pertinent by the same eentleman-that
OF growing pork and beans on one stalk
by crossing his improved streak-of-iat-
end-streak-oi-lean swine with variety
OF arboreal pigs discovered by a Mr.. LIE
MoRTBNoRK Of Australia. These Aus
tralian porkers were described as having
prehensile tails and fattenIng to periec- I
ton while hanging thereby from the
antipodean forest trees; and it was
thought that If they could be thus at
tached TO bean poles the pork ana the
beons would mature together. II was
set forth. moreover. that the swine were
OF the marsupial order and it was sug-
gested that If the ripened beans were
shelled into the pouches of the swine
the Boston man could drive his pork and |
beans TO market together
II there has been anything encourage !
ing 70 report as 10 the result of any OF |
these experiments it has not been noted
in the scientific publications, so lar as a
close perusal OF them reveals.

oerned. Mr.. PALMA now desires to suc
coed himself as President Of Cuba, anc
with that end in view has definitely
! allied himself with the Moderate dor
mcrly the Republican, party. Because
OF this, and in order TO give him per-
fectly free hand, his Cabinet has re-
signed, leaving him free to organize a
new Cabinet upon a partisan basis if he
sees fit so TO do
The refusal TO accept the designations,
and tho insistence on his acceptance Of
them, are merely expressions OF cour-
tesy, an exchange of oivilities. Some
OF the members will 60 because they do
not care TO affiliate themselves definitely
with the Palma ring Of the Moderates.
Others will probably remain from WILL
ingness to link their political fortunes
with those Of their chief. The incident
has no other significance.
IL is entirely his own affair but IL
seems to us that Mr. PALMA's earlier
attitude, that of being President of all
the people, was wiser course than the
assumption OF leadership of a particular
faction. Cuba has only about i,65o,o0o
inhabitants. and their need Is good gov
eminent rather than party government
Had the Cuban President sailed less
erratio course in regard to the national
debt, the pay of the army and few
other questions. he might again have
been the nominee Of both parties. His
defeat at the coming election is by no
means certain, but there are many who
even now predict it.
