ppsce Can Save Islands
Independence
TERMS ARE REJECTED
All Patriotic Cubans Ready and
willing to Make Concessions
Secretary Taft Warns Them That
Now Was the Time to Decide to
"Live as a Nation"

Havana. Sept. 26.-Cuba's indie
rondence hangs on the outcome of
tbe peace hearing before Secretary
~ War Taft and Assistant Secretary
of State Bacon, according to remarks
made by the War Secretary. Taft's
words we're tantamount to a threat
that If any party of Cubans should
make the pacification of the island
ImDossible, the United States would
assume control and keep it. There
WAS no alternative meaning to what
was said. He believed, he answered
when asked what the outlook for
neace between the Cuban Govern
ment and the insurgents was, that
when the warning factions should be
brought face to face with the dan
ger of losing independence forever, :"
then all patriotic Cubans" would be
willing TO make concessions. Secre-
tary Taft added in warning to the
opposlng leaders that now was "the
tine to decide whether they would
have Cuba live as a nation" His
warning is supposed to have been
addressed particularly to the insur-
gents in the field, who, it is feared,
may not accede to the compromise
terms the Liberals may arrange with
the Moderates, says the New York
Press.
But, although the active insur-
gents have not committed them
selves to the policy of the Liberals,
the Liberals have bound themselves,
If their leader may be accepted as
their mouthpiece, to that Of the
revolutionists. Senator Alfred Zayas,
leader Of the Liberal party, outlined
his attitude in the words: "The Lib
eral party is not revolution, but the
programme of revolution must be-
come the programme of the Liberal
party"
American Duty Clear.
The Senator's significant state
ment was uttered despite Secretary
Tait's advice to the leaders on both
sides to refrain from agitation that
might make intervention by the
United States necessary" The Amer
lean Secretaries, while declining to
express opinions of the merits of the
quarrel between President Palma
and the insurgents pending further
Information concerning political con-
ditions, made 1t plain that they be-
lieved their Government had duty
1t could not shirk, as sketched in
President Roosevelt's letter TO Min
ister Quesada, and that, whereas the
United States did not seek control of
insular affairs, 1t would insist on
peace in the island.
Senator Zayas was expected to file
brief setting forth the grievances
Of the Liberals, but he pleaded for
more time which was granted. Vice
President Mendez Capote, the
spokesman for the Moderates, or
Government party, filed a brief an
nouncing the Moderate position and
advancing certain propositions for
settling the controversy. By Secre-
tary Taft's order that brief was
sealed. 1t will not be taken up for
consideration until that can be done

gument

wives, who later get separation.
The very rich are influential people;
when it is fashionable for them to
get divorces it naturally becomes
fashionable for their imitators to do
likewise. There are more divorces
nowadays because there are greater
extremes of social condition. 1t
isn't a matter of religion or of law.
Instead Of plain living and high
thinking, there is on the one hand
too much high living and no think
ing, and on the other. too much low
living and low thinking. Down at
the bottom it is only a phase of the
problem that all the worlds econo-
mists are distressing themselves
about.

Marriage Statistics.

Special agents are going out from

much detail the facts sbout the
marriage and divorce industries in

the marriage and divorce census is
next to be taken. President Roose-
velt is responsible for this inquiry.
He originally wanted it taken last
year, but it was shown that a delay
of a year would make il cover the
