Upwards of 19,000 bills, joint res
olutions and other matters were in
troduced into congress during the
session that came to a close the oth
er day. The session was 197 days
long. It is not to be wondered at,
therefore, that many measures failed
of consideration,and that many bad
ly digested bills went through.

Wiat is to Be Done Now?

ft is difficult to understand the
point of view of such men as Sena
tor Hoar who snort at the mere
mention of governing the Filipinos,
to whom we made no promises, and:
then turn round and vote for a per
manent protectorate over the Cu
bans, to Whom the Teller resolution
promised absolute freedom and in
dependence. -
So remarkable a fact not only fur
nishes proof of individual inconsist
ency, but proof of the strength of
the feeling in the country that some
aort of supervision in, Cuba’s case is
necessary for American interests. A
mere glance at the provisions of the
act of congress will show that, how
ler desirable these provisions may
be independently considered, they
do not accord with the Teller Reso
lution, and that they imply a much
more complete protectorate than
that of Great Britain over the
Transvaal prior to the outbreak of
the present South African war.
The provisions are substantially as
follows: (1.) Supervision of all for
eign treaties. (2.) Practical control
of Cuba’s finances and credit. (3.)
The right of intervention at any
time. (4.) American supervision of
Cuban sanitation. (5.' Determina
tion by treaty of the status of the
Ilse of Pines, claimed by the Cubans
as politically a part of their island.
(6.) Sale or leasing of lands to the
United States for naval and coaling
stations.
Had there been no Teller resolu
tion these demands would now
doubtless be regarded by the world
(Cubans included) as a perfectly rea
sonable and by no means unexpect
ed outcome of the war with Spain.
But there was a Teller resolution
unanimously adopted, and the Cu
bans at least took us at our word
and are now evidently determined
to hold us to our contract if they
possibly can. Those recognizing the
binding nature of the Teller resolu
tion, but at the same time believing
that thn provisions of the aet were
desirable on prudential grounds,
hoped that the Cubans would freely
consent to them for the sake of their
own protection as well as ours, thus
solving a perplexing problem.
But this hope was vain. The del
egates at Havana inserted in the
Cubau constitution clauses which
refuse to recognize any American
authority and demand practically
unrestricted independence for Cuba.
Now the question is, what are we
going to do about it? Somebody
must back down, and is it to be the
American government or the Cuban
government? The American gov
ernment is not in the habit of back
ing down and the spectacle would
be a humiliating one, but suppose
the Cubans stick to their position
even to the point of flying to arms?
After a tedious guerrilla war we
could of course chase the last man
of them out of the bushes, but it
would be less easy to dispose of the
disagreeable fact that we had bro
ken faith with the Cuban people.

“I would cough nearly all night

frightfully and spit blood, but
when all other medicines failed,
three $1.00 bottles of Dr. King’s

The Helpful Hen.
Exchange.
Two Missouri institutions, the
mule and the hen, are serving to
make the state famed. The mule
has been written about since the
beginning of the Spanish American
war until there is hardly a ; nook or,
corner of the earth: that, does not
know that the long-eared product
of the Missouri farm is an essential
feature of latter-day wars.
After giving the mule all credit,
the hen steps in with a record for
results that mark her out for dis
tinction. According to a report of
the qensus bureau which will soon
be issued, the total number of
pounds of poultry shipped from 114
counties of Missouri last year was
106,988,710, an increase of 36,907,-
443 pounds over the preceding year.
The total number of dozens of eggs
shipped from the state last year was
34,875,040, bringing the aggregate
value of poultry-yard products co
$12,001,048.
According to reports, this sum is
larger by $17,000 than,the total val
ue of all the corn, wheat, oats, flax,
timothy seed, castor beans, clover
seed, millet seed, cane seed, cotton
seed, tobacco, broom corn, hay and
straw which was exported last year.
Figures like these show the value
of by-products. Only within the last
few years have manufacturers begun
to realize the money that could be
made from the wastes which were
formerly thrown away. The late
Philip I). Armour is given credit for
having utilized more waste than any
other industrial king; and so fine
was his system tl*at not an ounce of
any animal which*was killed in his
houses was wasted.
Up to the end of January the ex
port trade of the United States had
increased 13 per cent over the ag
gregate for the corresponding seven
months of the preceding fiscal year.
In that same time, however, our ex
ports to China had fallen off 50 per
cent. A considerable part of this
decline falls upon the southern cot
ton mills that had worked up a large
and growing cotton cloth-trade with
China. The explanation, as is very
well known, is that the military op
erations in China have stopped trade.
The sooner the settlement in China
comes the better it will be for the
American cotton manufacturing in
dustry.

It has come at last. An automo
bile for farm use has been invented
by a Colorado mechanic. The new
fangled machine may be used for

Wildman’s Prophecy.
Savannah N*twb.
Consul General Wildman, who was
a passenger on the ill-fa tsd Rio de
Janeiro, and who was among \ those
who were lost, expressed some views
relative .to the Philippines and made
a prophecy in respect to China,while
at Honolulu, on his way home, that
are interesting."
; He said that the Philippine ques
tion was practically at an end—that
if our soldiers could keep the insur
gents in check during the rainy sea
son, and he believed they could,
there would be nothing more heard
about war in the islands.
-With regard to China he said:
“China will be divided into five dif
ferent kingdoms. China was origi
nally five distinct divisions, and to
those it will again revert. There is
absolutely no sympathy between the
northern and southern portions of
the Flowery Kingdom. In the north
a Caucasian’s life is never safe; in
the south he may travel anywhere
with impunity.”
Mr. Wildman had the very best of
opportunities for forming an opinion
of the situation in the Philippines
and in China. He was where he
came in contact with those who un
derstood what was going on in the
islands and the empire. But, assum
ing that he was correct in respect to
the Philippines, was he not wrong
in respect to China? No doubt some
of the powers are working to bring
about a division of the empire, but
are they stronger than those who
are striving to hold the empire to
gether? It is certain that the United
States are doing their utmost to pre
serve the empire, it would be unfor
tunate for thorn if it were divided,
for then each of the powers would,
in all probability, exercise some sort
of jurisdiction over one of the divis-
ious, and would have the trade of
that division. What the United
States want is a chance to compete
for the trade of the whole empire.

It is estimated that approximate
ly $4,000,(500 was spent in Wash
ington in connection with the inau
guration of President McKinley the
other day, in one way and another.
It was a splendid pageant, worthy
of the greatest republic in the world.
What a contrast there was, though,
between that induction into office
and the one which preceded it by
one hundred years, when Jefferson

and took the oath of office.
