THE CUBAN SITUATION.

II is beginning 10 look as though l.
might be necessary TO send Secretary
Taft back to Cuba.
When the secretary was down
there he was apparently able to bring
order out of chaor, but since he left
chaos seems to have got the upper
hand and order is the down dog
In other words, the situation has
been growing worse ever since the
departure Of the big man of the adj
ministration. until now matters are
in a desperate state, and are such as
to excite great apprehension at Wash
ingtoi.
There are three parties in Cuba.
These are the moderates. the radicals
and the annexations In power they
stand in about the order named.
The moderates are the ones that
were ousted from power, and they
really embrace the more intelligent
portion of the people Of the island.
This intelligence enables them to
stand their own against the radicals,
who are. probably greater in number.
It is not likely that there would
have been the present troubles had e.
not been for the lack of judgment ex-
h.bited by the moderates. There are
not many who doubt that the moder-
ates would have been returned to
power by fair votc-by allowing
each voter TO exercise his rights I'M
der the constitution of Cuba.
But the truth is that the moderates
were fearful that the radicals would
gain control. and they resorted to un-
fair means in order to keep in. This
gave the radicals an opportunity that
they otherwise would not have had
and placed the moderates on the dc
iensive.
Because of this abuse of power
when Palma was president of the IS.
land republic. the number Of radi.
Gals has enormously increased. AMI
they are nov holding and with some
show OF reason, that an admnistra.
ton or a party that INDUCED in the
unlawful means that were taken "a
perpetuatc its own policy should
have no hand in the government.
The moderates. on the other hand
realize that putting in power the rad
icals would probably mean the de
struction of property values. and pos
s.bly OF the republic itself.
The annexationists do not com
prise any considerable portion Of the
people Of Cuba, but owing TO the rea-
sons given above there is posi-
bility that its growth in the future
may be great Many regard annex
siion as the only solution possible

NEW STYLE STAMPS.

The postoffice department has
called for bids for new supplies OF
one and two cent stamps with the
name of the postoffite from which
they are to be sold 'overprinted" en-
them. This would give as many kind
of stamps as there are postoff ces al
though all would be equally valid for
postal purposes in any part 70 the
country The end which this device
aims to correct is familiar. A subur'
ban postmaster whose salary depends
on the sales OF stamps at his Office,
gets friends Of his doing business in
the city to buy their supplies of the
local office. 1t is assumed that public.
spirited people, depositing letters 10
the large city postoffices would not
like to see the oyer-print of some
small town on their stamps In adli
ton it would give postoffice inspec-
tors pointers as to violations of the
law governing the safe Of stamps
