WARSHIPS GETTING READY
ROOSEVELT ORDERS PREPARA'
TIONS FOR CUBAN CAMPAIGN.
Navy Yard Officials Rush Supplies
Aboard Vessels-Secret lnstruc-
tons to Commanders.

Washington-Jacob Sleeper, the
American charge d'affaires at Havana,
advises the state department tia. the
government of President Palria has
considerable doubt of it's ability TO
maintain itself.
President Roosevelt has given rush
orders to the officials at the navy yard
at Norfolk to hurry stores aboard the
cruisers Tacoma and Cleveland so as
to enable the vessels to sail for Cuba
by Saturday.
May Order Vessels South.
Consideration has been given the
question of sending the entire Atlantic
feet, under command of Rear Admiral
Evans, TO Cuban waters. The stu
alton in Cuba is such that the gov
eminent may be forced to order these
vessels south.
There is no secrecy on the part of
the army officers on duty at the war
department that plans for campaign
have not only been discussed, but have
actually been decided. These steps
have been taken because the admins
tration does not desire to lose any
time in sending troops to Cuba to
maintain peace and protect life and
property if the situation becomes so
acute as to demand action on the
part of the government.
1t is stated in the most emphatic
terms by Acting Secretary Bacon that
there has been no request on the part
of the Cuban government for interven-
ton by the United States. But official
advice has been received by the de-
partment that the revolutionary forces
are conducting their war upon the
very gates of Havana, and that the
capture of President Palma and the
members of his cabinet is among the
possibilities of the next few days. II
Palma desires to seek an asylum on
an American warship it will be granted
him.
Denver Anchored Near Palace.
The Denver is now anchored in Ha-
vana harbor. almost within stones
throw of Palma's palace. In case the
personal safety of President Palma
should be threatened he could be taken
aboard the vessel within few mo-
ments' time. Commander Colwell, in
charge of the Denver, will, of course,
also afford all possible protection to
American citizens in the city of Ha-

Does Things.

The standing of congressman is
measured by his ability to do things.
Congressional oratory may make cam
paign thunder, but abe men who are
prominent in committee work furnish
the lightning
Hon. A. b. Darragh is one Of that
kind Of men. Always present in his
seat in congress safeguarding the in
IterestS or his district; well up on one
OF the most important committees IN
the House, he has been able To do
much more for his district than any
first or second term congressman can
do. Here is partial record; rural
routes in district increased from 8 to
1919: liberal appropriations for Ind
ian school at Mt. Pleasant; about
$4,000 secured for public building at
Trayers City; nearly 100000 secured
for improvement of water ways harbor
at CharlevoiX, storm warning station
on Beaver Island, cable TO Beaver Is
land, and daily mail service; pensions
and increase for 400 old soldiers. Ger
tainly these "things done" for his dis
trict are strong proof Of Mr. Darragh IS
efficiency and devotion to his con-
.stitueats.

Whatever other more or less vague
generalities may be made use of in
connection with democrat declara-
tions in Michigan and elsewhere
through the coming cempaign 1t
should be kept strictly in mind that
the desire Of that party is to make rad
ical changes iii our country's policies.
Whatever the republican party Is
doing the democrat party is opposed to
continuing. There is probably not a
member of the latter organization in
the entire United States who sincere
ly believes that better results would
accompany any radical change, bat
the changes will be insisted upon if a
sufficient number Of democrats are
elected TO make them. This view OF
the matter makes it of direct person
al interest TO all who have plans of
their own for the future and who are
counting on conditions such as have
accompanied recent years. Present
conditions will not continue il demo-
crat opposition is asprOYed.

The Word "CannibaIism."

The word "cannibalism" is really the
name of people. 1t IS Identical with
Carib, many of the Caribs, who for
merly fourished in the West Indies,
having been consumers of human flesh.

changeable in certain aboriginal Ameri-
can languages, so that Columbus found
one West Indian island saying Cant

Shakespeare's Caliban Is another va
riety Of the same. Columbus own con-
lecture was that the name was con-
nected with the great khan, and later
philologists of the old slapdash type as
ISOLATED with 'eanis," a dog. APP
parently, however, the meaning of
"carib" was brave and daring.
