While we should do all in our power

Monterey, Mex, Sept. 16-The cele-
bration of Mexico's day of Independ-
ence was observed here today by gen.
eral merry making. At break of day
the national flag was hofsted over all
federal and municipal buildings and a
salute was fired from the barracks.
At o'clock the governor accom-
panied by his stan and many promi-
nent citizens, proceeded to the Jaurez
Theatre, where they listened to the
reading of the declaration of inde-
pendence ana the signing Of the ma
tional hymn by prominent vocalist.
Band concerts were given on the
various plaxas during the afternoon
and evening. At s o'clock this even
ing a grand pageant participated in by
thousands was formed and marched
through the streets of the city
There was not the slightest disor-
der to mar tho celebration and so
peacefully was the affair carried on
that authorities say 1t will tend to
counteract any effect of rumors of an
antisforeign feeling which has been
rife for some months past.
No reports of trouble have been re-
ceived from any point in the states
of TAmaulipas, Nueva Leon or Coahui-
la. the three states traversed by the

FoR TWO CENT RATE.
Governors OF MANY states In Favor Of
Reduction.

ASuUNaAOms
Harrisburg. Pa. Sept. 16.-S. M
Williams. secretary OF the Pennsyf-
yania state board OF trade today made
public copies of letters received from
the governors OF several states on the
movement to obtain uniform legislation
throughout the United States for a two
cent maximum fare on all steam rail-
roads.
Mr.. williams recently communicated
with governors OF all the states with a
view of obtaining their sentiments on
the question.
A number of governors are personal
ly favorable to a two cent fare, and in
a few instances they tell of the move
ments In their states to obtain the
passage of such legislation by the leg
islature.
Governors of some western states
say that because OF the sparsely set
tied condition of their states. the time
is not yet ripe for a radical reduction
of fares, but that such a reform will
come about when the population in
creases.
The western governors express their
approval of the movement so far as 1t
applies to the thickiy populated states
of the east.

VIEWS OF FRANCE.
TEMPS Thinks Roosevelt VIII ACT hoh-
estIy Toward Cuba.

NQtIY VOWHLu S0Uos
paris sent. 16-Lively interest Is
r,anifssted here over President Rooser
valt,s decision to send Secretary OF
war Taft and Acting Secretary OF state
bacon to Cuba and many or the news
naners lump to the conclusion that TINS
will sound the death knell OF CUBAN
independence.
In responsible circles, however the
right OF the United States under the
treatv with Cuba to restore order Is
recognized but there is no disposition
IN impute to the washington govern
nent a desire to seize the occasion to
annex the island.
Nevertheless 1t Is thought by some
persons that even II the wise counsel
of President Roosevelt Is followed and
the rival factions temporarily bury
the Ratchet, there will be an early re-
currence of insurrection which VIII
compel ultimate annexation.
The Temps, which frequently renects
the views of the Foreign once, says
that while American interests in the
belief that they are injured by the
commercial treaty Cuba has negotiated
with other powers, undoubtedly hope
the present imbroglio will secure an
nexation, the position of the Govern
ment is very reserved. president
Roosevelt is a man of honor, who Will
keep his word.' The Temps says.
He gave liberty to Cuba and VIII
not take the first opportunity to with
draw it. Besides he is man of ex-
perience and knows what possession
of the Philippines cost and continues
to cost the United States. Cubans as
citizens or subjects are not easy to
govern.
Unless the unexpected happens. 1t is
safe to affirm. therefore, that America
does not contemplate laying violent
hands of the island, but only intends
to safeguard American interests and
demonstrate to the Cubans that it will
be a matter of hours If it desires to
impose its will.
ut probably will require the ap-
pearance of American warships to in
duce the Cubans to accept President
Roosevelt's excellent advice But I'M
Fortunately a settlement of political diff
ferences will not be definite and the
Cubans who during four days have sur
prised Europe by their prosperous
tranquility, will return to their old
vice. Such relapses are rarely isolated
This is a grave feature of the situa-
tion and one we deplore in a people
who always have received French sym
pathy and friendship"
