MUST HOLD CUBA
NOT YET READY FOR sELF-eov-
EMINENT.
so MANY OFFICERS THINK

Uncle Sans Soldiers Must Stay Until
Peace is Fully Assured-Politieai
Feeling Between Factions Is Still
Dangerously Bitter.
Washington.-It is said here that
the United States is in Cuba to stay
for some years to come, and, perhaps.
for all time. How long the soldiers
stay, and how long the affairs of the
Cuban government are administered
by Americans, depends wholly on the
Cubans. Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Bacon are
| declared to have come away from Ha-
vana thoroughly convinced that the
people of the island, in their present
state of political development, were
incapable of governing themselves.
Before leaving Havana, Mr.. Taft told
the Cuban political leaders that our
troops would not be withdrawn, and
We would not leave the island to itself
again until confidence had been re-
stored and the affairs of government
put on a stable, sound and permanent
basis.
Since It has been determined to re-
tain control of the island, every con-
sideration demands that the work OF
putting business on normal OASIS
should be undertaken at once. DIS
patches that have come from Havana
since Governor Magoon assumed con-
troll have not been reassuring In tone.
General Bells plan to give the
troops practice marches through
the island, it is acknowledged, Is noth-
ing more than plan to impress upon
the Cubans the fact that the United
States is in armed control OF their
country and will not permit another
outbreak. Another reason for these
marches is to preserve the discipline
of the troops.
The peace that exists In Cuba to-day
Is only on the surface, and every one
who has recently visited the island re-
alizes that II our soldiers were with
drawn now condition of anarchy
would follow. The feeling between the
defeated Moderates and the Liberals Is
bitter to a degree. Recent cable dis
patches report harsh dissensions In the
Liberal party. The Cuban political
leaders that the Taft commission came
in contact with proved themselves
nothing more than grafters; shrewd
and keen hunters after political office
and perquisites that accompany poliu-
cal position in Latin-Amcrtcan coun-
tries.
The ignorant low-class Cuban is
lovable fellow Obcdent, pleasure-lov-
ing. polite, and hard working when he
must be, he is as clay in the hands OF
the INSCRIPTIONS politicians who nave
gained an asccndency in the island.
It is these men who have made Cuban
independence impossible.
When President Roosevelt returns
to Washington he and Secretary Taft
will go carefully over the entire situa-
ton and determine when the election
shall be held and what method shall
be taken to insure continuation OF
peace and normal conditions in Cuba.
That this will mean the retention OF
troops and a certain number OF civil
officers is now definitely known

IMIG5 Emma Cole

A mother should come to her child's
aid at this critical time and remember
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound will prepare the system fo1
the coming change and start this try.
ing period in a young girls life without
pain or Irregularities.
Miss Emma Cole of Tullahoma, Tenn.
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
81 want to tell you that am enjoying bet
ter health than have for years. and owe
it all to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com.
pound.
When fourteen years of age suffered al
most constant pain, and for two or three
years / had soreness and pain in my side,
headaches and was dizzy and nervous, and
doctors all failed to help me.
Lydia f. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound
was recommended, and after taking it my
health began to improve rapidly, and think
1t saved my life. l sincerely hope my expert
ence will be a help to other girls who are pass-
ing from girlhood to womanhood. for know
your Compound will do as much for them"
If you know of any young girl who il
sick and needs motherly advice ask her
to write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass,
and she will receive free advice which
will put her on the right road to q
strong. healthy and happy womanhood.
Mrs. Pinkham is daughter-in-law of
Lydia L. Pinkham and for twenty-five
years has been advising sick women
free of charge.

German War Balloon.

Berlin.-Despite the recent purchase
of the Parseval airship by the Kaiser's
technical commission, German military
authorities are constructing in secrecy
a new and improved airship at the bal
looming department at Tegcl. This
vessel will be armed with guns and
other means OF offense. The technical
commission has also offered a certain
sum to Count Zeppelin for the pur-
chase of his latest airship. 1t is not
expected, however, that, in view of
the small amount offered Count Zep-
pelin will accept.
