the corresponding difference is but

VIII Retire From Island
When Election Is Held

When TIN election has been held and
the new government inaugurated in
peaceful and orderly fashion the pro-
vlsional government will come TO an
end.
I take this opportunity Of expressing
upon behalf OF the American people,
with all possible solemnity, our most
earnest hope that the people OF Cuba
will realize the imperative need Of pre-
serving justice and keeping order in tie
island. The United States wishes Moth
ing OF Cuba except that il shall prosper
morally and materially. and wishes
nothing OF the Cubans save that they
shall be able TO preserve order among
themselves and. therefore. to preserve
their independence If the elections be-
come a farce, and If the insurrectiOnary
habit becomes confirmed IN the island
II is absolutely out Of the question taat
the island should continue independents

official Wednesday morning. Mr. McFecn
who is superintendent OF motive power and

veloped these cars to their present stage
of perfection and he is the man to build
them. Although he has pronounced his
latest creation as being satisfactory and
the company is ready to spend vast sums
in their construction still. all know they
are only in the process OF development, just
as the locomotive was twenty-five years
ago. 1t would haul the cars all right, but
is not to be compared with the monsters OF

When there was talk of separate com
pany being organized for the construction
of motor cars, there were also rumors of
MIR. McKeen leaving the Union Pacific to
go with the new company. This was, of
course, denied but the decision TO have
the Union Pacific build the cars will set
that whole question at rest
Motor car No. s. the latest to be turned
out by Mr.. McKeen, except smaller one,

coin and Beatrice and keeps to the schedule

OUR LETTER SOx


Asks some Pointed Questions.
OMAHA, Oct. $40 the Editor OF Tho
Bee Dispatches from Lincoln yesterday
stated that the executive committee Of the
Civic Federation had fled charges before
Governor Mickey against the Board OF
Fire and Police Commissioners for nom
enforcement OF the Sunday liquor laws
VIII you kindly permit me, in your col
umns. to PROFOUND 10 the members of said
committee two questions?
First-Is your action prompted by de-
sire to see enforced generally such laws as
are on our statute books. liquor laws in
cluded?
Seconds it prompted by your desire to
Nhave the people generally abstain from the
use of all beer wine and stronger bever-
ages on the Sabbath day?
If the first is your object then should
you not also urge enforcement of our laws
against all kinds of Sunday traffic such as
cigar or newsstands, and against all un-
necessary Sunday labor. such as paid sing
ers in the churches. actors, BARRIERS etc =?
why single out liquor dealers who con-
tribute annually $4,000 to our school fund
II my second conjecture furnished. your
motive, then should you not also proceed
against our clubs and drug stores. where
the Sabbath day does not differ from the
other six i'm the week as to the sale of
liquors. although practically no license is
paid by them?

ton on a Sunday afternoon is tho public
