not Sc king office" said Governor Ma
goon In an interview
He added that the representations
made today and previously by Liber-
ais concerning offices all referred to
local posts.
There had been many complaints re-
garding mayors and requests that these
officials be ousted on account Of their
misdolngs. The complaints. however,
had been simply presented to the gov
ernor for investigation.
Mr.. Magoon reiterated that he had
seen no signs or attempts at office
grabbing.
In addition to the question of ap-
pointing ministers which is held in
abeyance for the time being Governor
Magoon Is considering the appointment
of commission on new laws, another
on civil service and third to hear
the claims for damages arising from
the insurrection.
The commission on laws probably
will be composed equally of Americans
and Cubans. 1t will be charged with
the preparation of recommendation
for general elections and municipal
laws and certain other laws which are
considered fundamentally necessary to
the progressive government of the
country When these laws have been
decided upon they will be promulgated
by Governor Magoon in the form of

The proposed civil service commits
sion will consist of three Americans
from the department at Washington
and six Cubans. 1t will consider the
laws and practices hitherto followed
in Cuba and formulate q system suited
to Cuba, based, in part, but not wholly,
on American lines
Whatever Americans 1t may be nee
essaryt to employ will be selected from
among the civil service employees at
Washington.
The claims commission doubtless will
be entirely composed Of American army
officers but there may be also some
Officers of the Cuban rural guards
The local political parties are show
ing signs of resuscitatior. The Mod
crate party already has issued
lengthy program setting forth aims
similar to those held by the Moderates.
Tonight there was big Liberal mass
meeting at the Payrett theater.
