EMILIO NOT DISTURBED

OF Rosario Emelio, the Lincoln
county murderer under sentence to
hang. who recently obtained a stay
OF execution until a rehearing OF the
case can be had In August, the Capt.

been prolonged until August or Sep
tember, with a possibility Of the su,
preme court granting him new
hearing. and perhaps changing the
death sentence to Imprisonment for
life in the penitentiary. did not seem
from his outward appearance, to
cause him much thought. The two
years he has spent In a condemned
CELL with death staring him in the
face does not appear to have had
much effect on him, either physically
or mentally. His weight and flesh
remain about the same as before his
conviction. He maintains an easy
peaceful. half resigned expression
and Is very little trouble to his
guards. When informed that It was
probable he would be removed to
Santa Fe for safe keeping until his
fate was finally decided, an express
sion of pain fitted across his face
as he replied. II would be very sorry
to go back to Santa Fe I would
much prefer remaining here in shac-
kles. IL the courts decide that l.
must die, would rather spend the
little time allowed me In the town
where I grew up from childhood. II
my sentence should be commuted,
the doors of the penitentiary will be
closed on me forever" He seems to

WANT THE AMERICANS TO STAY.

Cuba has a new political organiza-

order.loving people Of the island. ma
tive and foreign.
Naturally the chief plank In the
conservative national party's plat
form Is advocacy OF the continuance
of American sway in the island. An
other plank asks for the renewal of
the commercial treaty with us. The
reason why the continuance of the
American connection Is urged IL that
this will mean stability and prosper
ity. The Cubans are having better
times than they have had In several
years past. At the outset in Palma's
regime a good deal OF new capital
and labor flowed into the islands,
knowing that American supervision
would last in any case, and supposing
that all the people would support
Palma. The latter assumption soon
turned out to be wrong. Palma had
many powerful enemies among the
Cubans from the beginning of his
sway. but as the American govern
ment was known to be on his side,
he was not only able to maintain
himself, but to secure a second elec-
tion. Afterward came the insurrec-
tion which forced him to ask for
American Intervention ana compelled
him to step down.
This new party In Cuba will be sure
to attract attention in the United
States. Its appeal for the continua-
tion of American control stands for a
sentiment that the president and con
gress win have to take into the &C.
