129. Why were four gospels written?
Answer They are four views of Jesus,
not contradictory but supplementary. Mat
thew was for the Jews intended to present
the Messiahship. Mark was for the Ro-
mans portraying Jesus as the servant of
God. Luke was for the Greeks represent
ing the saviour of men. John, designed for
ecumenical man, outlined the Lords life
as the son of God. Here were four schools
OF thought. The epistles were cast In the
same mold The entire New Testament is
after this pattern.

CUBA IN SPITE OF ITSELF.
Significant Features of Secretary
Taffs Action. A



Cuba is 10 remain Cuba in spite OF itself.
That is the grist OF Secretary Tafts procla-
nation. He accepts the situation which the
Cubans have brought about. The Cuban
president has resigned, and the vice presi-
dent with him. and the Cuban congress has
failed to choose a successor to him. Thus,
so far as the /Cubans are concerned, a
vacancy is left in the chief magistracy.
That vacancy Secretary Taft tills, with
abundant authority in both law and morals.
His action Is logical and officially fiawless.
The unique feature Of II is that he keeps
the Cuban flag flying and maintains a
Cuban government conforming with the
Cuban constitution. Intervention. protec-
torates and what not have hitherto meant
the substitution. at least for the time. OF
the flag and the law and the actual au-
thority of the intervening or protecting
power for those OF the state under tutelase.
Not so in Cuba. There is no return to the
status of the American occupation follow
ing the Spanish war. Cuba remains Cuba,
only with an American instead Of Cuban
at the head OF affairs tt
We have said that is the unique feature
of the case. ItlsSalso the most significant,
from both the Cuban and the American
point of view. II means that, as We said
yesterday, American policy Is TO prevail IN
our relations with the island. The United
States is not going to be stampeded into
annexation OF Cuba at the behest OF sordid
spectators or involved in any embarrassing
complications. II could annex Cuba on the
ground Of that country's failure TO govern
itself But before accepting that last UNI
welcome resort 1t wisely as well as gener-
ously decides TO give the island another
II. hox
conspirators. in both Cuba and this coun-
try. will be disappointed. for which reason
we are all the more gratihed. We are GER
tain that the overwhelming sentiment OF
the American people-and We trust OF the
Cuban people also-wili cordially approve
Mr.. Tafts words and action. especially in
this matter Of insisting that Cuba shall still
be Cuba. and the government of the island
shall still be Cuban government

binding force OF convention pro-
nouncements. and Immediately after
the democratic convention he publicly
rejected some of its most important
specific planks. But back even Of
his personal. as well as OF his party
declaration. the test of fire to which
the worthy citizens of his own party
have subjected him is the test of
character as a public man. According
to this crucial test fortunately the line
is being drawn in the Empire state
and indubitable proofs show that It
strikes at very oblique angle to ha-
bitual partyism or platformism.
II all means that vast new party,
II the term may be used for convent
ence, is rapidly mobilizing on the
basis of practical independence that
insists and is going. henceforth, to
insist more imperiously on the real
thing of character and net result in
politics, without so much regard to
platform strategem. and 1t is up to
New York to give this year a memoir
able object lesson of what can thus
be done for decent and wholesome
government.

Aside from the intense anxiety OF
President Roosevelt for the success of
Cuban self-goternment which his
every act has signaiized. no man has
more reason than he to regret the
necessity for Intervention at this par
ticular juncture. There is ground for
the general belief, born of confidence
in him. that his return TO Washington
would only mark the completion of
preparations Tor pressure OF his pro-
gram upon congress which will assem-
BILE within two months for the short
session. The time OF the long session
was so consumed by the arduous
struggle over the rate bill that, al
though the meat inspection, pure food,
free alcohol and a number of like posi-
tive reform measures were also passed,
many important plans of the president
had to go over, while there cannot be
doubt that he has all the time con
templated still further steps towards
the goal he has set up. Moreover. in
the enforcement OF the law against
powerful corporation interests, cases
OF vast Importance are pending which
