YOUNG GUbANS
STRONG ACTOR
New Party VIII Wage Vigorous
Campaign in November
Elections.
MAKE GREAT PROMISES
OF SWEEPING REFORMS
Starvation Results From Uni
versal Mania for Buying
Tickets i'm Lottery.

HAVANA, Aug. S.-With the ad
lournment of the Cuban congress, after
session singularly poor in usefulness,
there sounds on all sides the note of
active preparation for the political
campaign preceding elections to be
held the first week Of November. 1t
is realized that in these elections the
young republic faces the most serious
crisis that has yet confronted it.
Half the senate and half the house
of representatives are to be chosen,
together with number of local Off
cials. The situation is complicated by
the great number of parties, with still
others in process of formation.
Among the minor parties now spring
ing into existence is that of e" La Jo-
vena Cuba or young Cubans, :"
modelled, so It's leaders say, after TIA
" Young Turks and the party of
young Italy
Their platform is radical one, com
prsing such planks rs the adoption of
the parbamenta system of govern
ment, the revocation of the sale of
the property of the church to the ma
tion which was consummated under the
Magoon administration, complete All
tonomy for ali provinces. the abolition
of the army and the creation of Il
strength of the existing body; reclnma-
tion from Spain of the 100000 paid
by Governor Magoon for the Spanish
artillery remaining in, Cuban fortresses;
the reduction of all criminal pen
alties by half, and the substitu
tion Of the electric chair for the ''gar-
otte': the prohibition of the entrance
into the republic of any members of
religious orders, the suppression Of the
secret police. prohibition Of foreign
corporations from acquiring real estate
in Cuba. and the abolition of all
trusts; adoption of the jury system
in criminal eases and reform of the
national lottery, so that all the money
taken in for tickets IN excess OF five
per cent shall be distributed in prizes.
General Manuel +. Alfonso of the
army of liberation appears as the head
of the new party and is prospective
candidate for president.
The estimated surplus from the ma
tional lottery falls below the amount
the government expected to gain from
this source because the steady drain
on the resources of the poor for nearly
year has deprived them of the priv.
ilege Of buying more tickets, In vain
has every effort been made to stimulate
the sale of tickets, even to the extent
of subdividing them. so that fractional
parts can be bought for 25 cents and
multiplying the distributing agents so
that even the beggars in the streets
90 about hawking tickets.
Narrowing stories are told by school
teachers of children unable to go TO
school for lack of shoes and still of
others starving because every cent has
been spent in the lottery.
