Cuba,

Gen. Magoon should exert himself to the
utmost to uncover the American end of this
latest trouble in Cuba. The prompt arrest
OF the hired men was, of course, the thing
to do, but the hfrers. if they can be found
should follow their tools to Jail without de-
lay. Ii no money had been provided no re-
volt would have been planned. In this mat
ter, as in the matter of grating, or repeat
ing at the ballot box. the bribers are the
ones who should chiefly be punished. But
maybe, as in those other matters, the man
alone will suHer. The master, as rule is
shrewd rogue. who knows how to cover
his tracks.
ihere were American capitalists who
warmly opposed the Teller declaration in
favor of free Cuba. With investments in
the island, or with their eyes turned in that
direction, they favored annexation. They
asserted that the Cubans were Incapable of
conducting their own affairs and that an
experiment Of that kind would end in fail
ure The thing TO do, they urged, was to
raise the Stars and Stripes, and keep it
flying.
Congress took the other view, and public
sentiment ratified the action. The United
States became pledged to free Cuba, with
the conditions imposed by the Plat amend
ment, and We are still so pledged Our in
PREVENTION to restore order when the Palma
government failed was at Cuban instance
and with the understanding that our au-
thor1ty was derided solely from the Plat
amendment We We're again to restore or
der. and, that accomplished. again to retire.
Clearly. therefore, any scheme originated
and supported by Americans for fomenting
trouble In Cuba. with the object of forcing
annexation is an offense against not only
Cuba but the United States. II is an effort
to discredit this governments obligations
and bring them to naught
Annexation may come in time. Many
Cubans desire it, and many Americans
think both countries would benefit. But
to be creditable and thoroughly workable
it must come in the natural order OF things.
Should it come as the result of con-
spiracy of American specJIla tors. operating
in disregard of this governments duty and
promises in the premises, and with only
their wallets in mind, it would be certain
TO breed no end OF trouble.
The Plat amendment, which justifes our
presence in the island. obliges us to retire
when the work which took us there is done
But our right to return will continue, and
we shall return II occasion calls for it,
And should again return it will then
consider further and permanent steps.

Tomorrow in the Tennis Court.

The Englishman who in the London Mail

Bishop of London's style as d tennis player

patriot. He has offended against the or
dinances OF both sport and country. We

The Tramp Must Go.
From the Milwaukee Wisconsin.

The hobo, tramp, who moves north
ward and southwark with the birds as the
seasons change. may soon have an especial
reason for bordering the common saying
that every dog has his day" For many
years he has been conspicuous evil along
the lines of railroad during the summer In
the north ard in winter in southern lati-
tudes. He has not only troubled the rail-
road men. but he has made his presence
felt by villagers and also by farmers along
the lines OF railroad traffic. Railroad train
crews at first resented his intrusiOns but
which was within their immediate purview
they put up with his effronterv and
let him have his own way except when
he occasionally assumed to run things"
But the tramp now has too many brothers
on the road, ard his depredations have be-
come so extensive that the railroads are
turning against him in self-defense.
