Senator Morgan Denounces Control of
Isle of Pines.
BY Publishers Press.
Washington, Dec. 1.-Senator John T.
Morgan of Alabama has sent vigorous
letter to an American resident of the Isle
of Pines, in which he discusses the grew
ances Of the Americans there. Among
other things he says: During the exist
ence of the miserable pretence of govern
ment sustained by the executive power
Of the United States in the Isle of Pines
called de facto government which has
no parallel in history, Cuba has inflicted
upon our people there actual prosecutions
Of a character that shames the civiliza-
ton of this age. For illegality, cruelty,
depravity and meannsss Of spirit they
are not exceeded by the worst infections
that are alleged by the Cubans to have
been imposed upon them by their Spanish
masters.
'Your people have borne these repeated
wrongs with fine and admirable self.
control. With this attitude you have won
the admiration and confidence. of the
people of the United States and have
given notice to Cuba that your obedience,
even to the absurd edicts Of de facto
government, is proof Of a more deter
mined obedience to higher duty If the
time comes for it's assertion" -.

self, he will decline to be reelected
speaker, and retain his place in con-
gresss as high private in the rear
rank. The reason for this decision I'M
doubtedly will be the fear that the six
t1eth congress may possibly be called
upon to enact some very important leg
lslation, and the speaker to make some
very important rulings during the par
hamentary progress of it. He does not
want to run the risk Of having such
rulings rise up to plague him in 1908.
Tawney as Successor.
Should Mr.. Cannon step down and
out, the leading candidate to succeed
him will be Representative Tawney of
Minnesota, who for several years has
been picked out as the next speaker. It
as likely that the house committee on
public lands will be reorganized in the
sixtieth congress anad Representative
Fordney of Michigan made it's chair
man. If he is made chairman, Repre-
sentative Volstead of Minnesota will
be its ranking member, and in case
Fordney should be turned down, Vol
stead will be prominent candidate
for the Craftsmanship.
The reorganization Of the committee
will come about thru the defeat of
Judge Lacey of Iowa, it's chairman, and
the further fact that the committed
will, during the next few years consid-
er several important pieces of pro
posed legislation among them the drain
