when they turned down Gamble and
sprung Martin for the senate, Lawson
was sprung upon a long suffering
people as a candidate for congress.
But even those accustomed to taking
the dictation of the machine thought
the Lawson proposition joke, and
it had to be declared off. That was

PRIMARY LEGISLATION.

That some kind of primary law
will be passed by the incoming legis-
lature is the conclusion at state head
quarters, so the scribes announce.
They say there is a difference of
opinion between an immediate enact
ment and one that shall be submitted d
to the voters and that the difference
extends into the ranks of the advo-
Yates of the primary system.
This is probably stretch of the
truth. The men who represented the
majority yin the state republican con
vention caused the following plank to
be inserted in the platform of that
convention:
"We favor the enactment of com
prehensive and practical primary elec-
tion law for the nomination of all
congressional, state, judicial, legisla-
tive and county officers by direct
vote of the people"
This declaration was opposed by a
small minority representation of the
republican party. The democratic par
ty of the state, in their convention
declaration said:
1--WE denounce the so-called honest
caucus law enacted by the last legis-
lature as unjust and inadequate and
we favor a simple and inexpensive
primary law and also personal reg
istration law"
Through these two declarations, all
of the citizens of the state, with the
exception of minority of the repub-
lican party, are committed to pri-
mary law and it is not necessary to
appeal to the referendum for an ex-

the annexation. The only opposition
abroad is from Spain which still has
sentimental interest in Cuba and a
natural jealousy Of tha United States
But Spain would not count I'M Euro
pean discussion of the subject.
If annexation shall come the world
cannot say that the United States did
not give the Cuban republic a fair
chance to work out its own destiny.
In May, 1902, the American troops
were formally withdrawn from the
island. They left it with an admins
trative machinery in good woking or
der, treasury, set OF laws which
had already resulted in the stamping
out of the most dreadful foe of the
island, yellow fever, aud the good VII
of all the world. In less than four and
a half years the Cubans have wrecked
that fair prospect by internal strifeand
lHcapdclty 10 meet the cOnultlOnS /
self government. Undoubtedly Judge
Taft went to Cuba prepossessed in
favor of the government and against
the rebels His experiences in the
island apparently have modified his
views. He has found evid ence of
fraud in the last elections which made
newappeal to the people imperative.
Palma, who should have met the Amer
lean commissioners half way, has
blocked their peaceful attempts at ev-
cry turn and finally forced interven-
ton by abandoning his post at time
when abandonment meant anarchy or
intervention. Rather than compromise
with his own people or sacrafice one
iota of his dignity" he ruined the
Cuban republic. Perhaps he has done
the island a service.

TAFT IN POSSESSION OF CUBA.

The Am Arican dram of a republic
in Cuba app aars to be over. Secretary
Taft has taken possession Of the capi
tai, put a guard over the treasury and
is to all intenls and purposes the lord
of the island today. While the Cuban
flag of th- lone star still floats over
the government buildings it seems but
a question of time when it must come
down to be replaced by the stars and
stripes, says the Minneapolis Journal.
Much as the president may regret
the necessity of hauling down a flag
which he was proud to see go up, it is
better that Cuba should be part of
the greater republic than that an trchy
should mar the prospects of one ofthe
fairast regions of earth.
The position of Secretary Taft even
today, however, does not necessitate
annexation. Only the signs point in
that direction. 1t is possible the presi-
dents representative may attempt to
patch up all administration of Cubans
and leave the flag of the republic where
it is. The small number of marines
landed and the general caution of the
steps taken by Judge Taft would war
rant the conclusion that he is using
every endeavor to avoid, if possible,
the humble possession of Cuba.
But it will be more difficult to let go
than it was to take hold There is a
large element among the Cubans them
selves who would prefer annexation to
another republic. The American ele-
mentis almost unanimously for anexa.

The minority of republicanism that
opposes the primary proposition does
not endorse the statute and constitu

its hostility SO positively as to violate
