Spanish ArlStOcracy
Must Wake Up or Die
Warns Spanish NewSpl
(By Associated Press.)

Madrid, Feb. 7.-"Wake up or
die is the warning addressed 10 the
Spanish aristocracy in an editorial of
Ell Debate, which lashes the ancient
nobility of the country for its ''lethal
passivity'' in all public matters. The
writer adds:
In order not to succumb, the no
bility must not only display more
democratic sentiments but personally
participate in the life OF the country.
Otherwise, having already lost its
ancient class prestige, surrounded by
materialistic bourgeoisie. middle
class without any defined object and
a populace eXasperated by political
deception and economic unrest until
it is ready for all kinds of violence,
the ancient nobility will have nothing
else to do than succumb.
The British aristocracy is giving
an example of what an aristocracy
should do in order to merit its name
for its members have gained distinc-
ton in science, industry and active
politics and hold an important place
in the intellectual, economic and So
cial life of the country The Spanish
nobility should take note of the signs
of the times. for it has only a brief
moment to decide whether to wake up
or die

NOW CUBA NEEDS ASSISTANCE

Rumor is foreshadowing tie report
which General Crowder is making to
this Government on the Cuban situation.
One that seems to carry weight is to the
effect that Cuba needs assistance, that
she is not making success of her efforts
to go alone; that office-holders are too
plentiful, greedy contractors too numer-
Gus and political manipulators too con-
scienceless to reduce the expenses of
government. The sugar stu alton, as all
know, is bad and depression in business
appears to be acute.
1t is believed that Cuba will eventually
be compelled to get loans and if she is to
obtain them on conditions favorable to
the country she will be compelled to seek
assistance and advice. This country is
the natural source for this and is under
obligations to meet the situation. 1t
goes without the saying that not all who
might like the job of supervising matters
in Cuba are suited to it. Indeed the
choice will be delicate one, calculated
TO add to the already over plentiful prob
lens our administration has on its hands,
but it looks very much as though it
might be in the days work.-Kennebec

spawning beds Everyone in this section

and splendid run of salmon.
Warden Wass also reports that "mil-
