THE COLOR LINE IN CUBA.

Iue1n is growing apprehension
that friction between the blacks and
whites in Cuba viii ultimately result
in serious Double in the island
American interests being involved in
the situation is more kcenly felt mere
than it possibly is in Havana. This
situation cannot be ignored. When
the United States retired, it was large
~ due to a feeling that it would be
imprudent to introduce the American
color line into the republic. Under
the Spanish civilization, the negro
has been allowed much more free
dom than he has in this country
more, in fact, than ne can ever eX-
pect to enjoy here. This higher So
cial status in the island was appre-
ciated by American diplomats, and
the early removal of the American
forces was deemed advisable for this
among other reasons.
But the American and English in
teresta in Havana have grown. and
now the largest hotel in that city ha~
declined to receive negro cUests. This
hotel caters especially to American
patronage. Tia; it's mauaeau.l

The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1910-02-11

We are a little disappointed that the
interest did not manifest itself earlier.
The News some days ago opened its
columns to both sides, and we had
hoped that both sides would discuss
this important question for the gen
eral information of the public.
Friends of the commission form have
given their view and argument of the
question to the public; if the opposi-
ton had done likewise, the people
could have rendered an intelligent
verdict, with all the facts before
them. AS it is the question is not
generally understood, and the voting
tomorrow will be largely of two class
es; one, ''preferring to endure the ills
they have, rather than fly to those
they wot not Of" the other ready to
do anything to rid themselves of the
incubus of the present form of city
government
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1910-02-11

The News has taken the position
heretofore that more depends upon
men than mere form; and we believe
that position is tenable. But of
course there is something in form. as
well; and the more we have read and
though about the question, the more
settled we have become in our opinion
that the change is at least worth
trying. The commission form is more
simple, it is more direct, it ought to be
more economical, it is more directly
responsible to the people. Three
men, instead of dozen will be re-
sponsible for all that is good and all
that is bad; and these three men will
have well defined duties, and it will
be easy to locate the responsibility
exactly where it belongs And the
best way to insure good service. is to
make the servant responsible; to let
him know that his desds 81 omissio,

There is general complaint against
NOT the administrators or the I'd
ministration-but of the condition of
affairs, brought about largely by the
present cumbersome and remotely re-
sponsible form of government. That
complaint we say is general. 1t is
admitted that something must be
done" It is q self-evident PROPOSE
tion that the present assessment of
property is quite high enough, and
that the tax rate is likewise high
enough, and yet, with these high val
ues and this high rate, the revenue
derived is not enough, under the pres
ent plan and form and system, to meet
the expenses of government. 1T is
not a theory, but a condition, there
fore, that confronts us" Something
must be done, and done quick; be
cause Hattiesburg is hurting.
