Cubans Banding to Fight Annexation

New York, oct. 3O.-At a meeting
of prominent Cubans of All factions
in the Waldorf Astoria tonight it was
decided to hold an important confer
ence i'm the city in the near future.
Moderates, liberals and insurrectos
have put their differences aside and
have decided to invite former Pres
ident Thomas Estrada Palma to take
part in the conference. The union of
the factions is said to be due to the
fear of the annexation movement
which is spreading throughout Cuba.
At the coming conference all factions
will unite on candidates who will not
be opposed at the next election. 1t is
claimed that only portion of the COM
mercial interests controlled by Span
iards want Cuba annexed to the Unit
ed States, while three-fourths or more
of the voters on the island want the
republic continued and iast peace
establishment

New York, Oct. 3O.-It is estimated
according to reports of the United
states geological survey that the out
put of gold from Alaska this year will
amount to over s15,0G0,OO0, or more
than 60 per cent over the previous
year. In 1895 the amount was a lit
tie over $2,0O0,OOO. An important
factor in the advancement of Alaska's
mineral industry during the last de-
cade, says the report, is the great re-
duction in mining costs which has
taken place. The pioneer miners of
the Yukon could not afford to ham
die gravel averaging less than $40 or
S15 to the cubic yard. Now it can be
worked for less than So a yard.

WHAT WEALTH CANNOT BUY.

Millions of people in this world yearn
every day for the possession Of wealth.
Some of them would have you believe
they are willing to sell their very souls
for the possession of money in large
quantities; some. alas. do sell their
souls. And. after all. in a great num-
Der of instances. wealth is a mockery.
What shall it prOLt a man if he gain
the whole world and lose his own soul ?''
asked the Savior
The recent death Of Charles T.
Terkes, many times a millionaire, is a
case in point Yerkes possessed wealth
beyond the widest dreams Of avarice.
Anything that money could buy he
could have. Cost long since ceased to
be a consideration with him. Yet when
this mans time came to die, the sum
mons found him on a bed In a hotel
attended by a hired nurse.
He could have bought and paid for a
thousand average American homes
without denying himself a single lux
ury. He could not buy the smallest
fraction of the wealth Of happiness
that is an everyday feature of the
average American home. He could not
buy the love of his wife; ne could not
buy the sOlace of tender ministrations
on his deathbed. True. he could and
he did buy attention, but between at
tention that is given for money and at
tentiOn that is given for love a great
gulf is fixed
Thousands upon thousands Of men
who never dreamed of possessing a

earth under far more beautiful sur
roundings than those of Yerkes, dying

Instances like these are calculated to
make those of us who are without
worldly wealth. the affection Of those
around us, feel that wealth, however
desirable, is not the sine qua non of
human existence. Solomon never gave
us a wiser utterance than when he
said:

BLACKBURN TO BE RETIRED.

Two political items in the dispatches
published recently are Of national in
terest. The first of these is the defeat
of J. c. S. Blackburn, the picturesque
Kentucky senator, for denomination in
a caucus held by the Democratic mem
bers Of the Kentucky legislature. The
second is the election, thanks to the
''untiring efforts of President Roose-
welt, of James W. Wadsworth, jr., as
speaker Of the New York assembly.
For many years Senator Blackburn
has been a national figure. During
practically all Of his manhood he has
held office either as a member of the
national house Of representatives or as
a senator. When he was not a mem
Der of either body he could usually be
found in Washington practicing law
and acting as lobbyist for various in
terests. Never a man Of great ability,
Blackburn managed to weave a spell
around his constituents that nothing
seemed likely to break
In all the years of his service as a
national lawmaker he did not originate
a single piece of important legislation,
he never made a speech of moment. He
will be remembered by the general pub
lie chiefly because he engaged in an al
teTcatiOn on one occasion with Senator
Chandler, during which he pulled
Chambers nose. And at last Black
burns day has come, as it was bound
to come, sooner or later, to one of his
type. A new generation has arisen in
Kentucky, a generation that demands
something more than words from it's
representatives at washington.
Judge Thomas H. Paynter, Democrat,
who is to succeed Blackburn, was
backed by the younger crowd, headed
by Governor Beckham and known
throughout Kentucky as the Beckham
machine. He is reported to be an able,
intelligent man, one who will reflect
credit on his state. It is high time
Kentucky had such a senator.
The election of Wadsworth in New
York shows the influence Of the pres
ident in state politics and brushes Boss
OdeH. The latter fact IS not to be re-
GREETED particularly. OdeIl was just a
boss, nothing more. His reinforcement
is a cause for congratuIation. But is it
not a dangerous thing for a president
to attempt to run state politics?
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1906-01-05
CENAToR DEPEW.

How are the mighty fallen! In the
New York legislature on Wednesday a
resolution calling upon Senator Chaun-
cey NJ. Depew TO resign forthwith was
given serious consideration. The reso-
luton was not adopted, but neither
was 1t defeated. By a large majority,
after some warm discussion. it was re-
ferred to committee and will be final
~ acted upon later.
It is quite probable that, when it is
again called up for consideration, the
resolution will be defeated. There are
doubtless enough members of the leg
islature who believe that Depew should
resign to force the passage Of the reso-
luton. but whether or not they are
brave enough to vote for it is an open
question. And it is not at all likely
that Senator Depew would resign even
If the legislature should vote a unani-
nous request TO him to do so.
Legislatures have the power to make
United States senators, but they have
not the power to unnake them. Once
elected to the upper house Of the ma
tional congress only the senate itself
curtail the terms of members or refuse
them admission, having the physical
power to do exactly as it pleases. Sen
ator Depew is, therefore. safe for his
present term, which expires in 1911. A
man Of his thick political skin is not
apt to heed any outcry for his resig-
nation.
Yet Senator Depew was not without
defenders in the New York legislature
on Wednesday. It was said of him
that 'he has decorated all the positions
that he has held" On this point we do
not suppose there viii be any argu-
ment. The smiling Chauncey has al
ways been an ornamental figure. II
New York wants only an ornament in
the senate OF the United States it Will
continue Chauncey there as long as he
lives. If it wants a, useful man Chaun-
cey will be bounced at the earliest pos
sibIe opportunity.
He has never cut a serious figure in
national affairs. Always he can be de-
pended upon to vote right when the
interests of the great corporations are
involved; always can he be depended
upon to vote for the corporations. Dur
ing his seven years of service he has
originated no important legislation,
made no important speeches. In the
senate, as in private life, he has been
a joke, a clown.
He never had any business in the
senate, but the New York legislature
made him and the New York Iegisla-
ture Will have to stand him, whether
it likes him or not.
