In his speech op tting th*’ convention
Gen. VVikml said that It was expected that
the convention, after it had formed a eon- 4
stit iit tor, w ould agree upon what It
thought should he the relation*, between
Culm and the United Htatw. Some of thf
• 'uhan leudeis w*re !n< lined to resent the
jniiouni t m ut In the President s proclam
ation that the convention would he r-x*
pec ted to outline its wthti* us to the re
lations between the two countries. They
said that the relations between the Unit
ed States and Cuba should be the same
as thoae between Cuba ui.d other foreign
countries.
It Is probable that the convention will
t ike a different view when It rumen to
consider the mutter seriously. It will be
come apparent to at least the most
thoughtful of them that Cuba will not lie
In a position to stand alone for many
tears after It undertakes self-government
It will la* n long time before It has either
an army or a navy of any considerable
proportions. Unless the fulled States were
Its friend It would have to yield to the
demands of any power, however unjust
the demands might be. Resides, there are
likely to Ik; Internal dissensions, more or
less serious In their clwsractrr. until lh>
new government g*is upon firm basis.
These dissensions may result In revolu
tions unless the government Is supported
by the strong arm of the I'nlled States.
Cuba will want some concession In the
way of tariffs. If she Is to get them site
will have to make concession*. Asa mat
ter of fact the I'nlltsl States ought to
be gteatly favored In all commercial mat
ters To them Cuba will owe her lntle
pendence, and without their assistance
she will hardly be able to maintain her
self as an Independent state.
When tin* convention give* Ihls matter
the consideration It Is entitled to It will
doubtless come to the conclusion thot the
Prealdi nt was not mistake n when he re
commend* *1 that the convention outline
the relations that are to exist between
the rolled HlatM) and Cuba.
Representalive dealairn Wright s dis
pensary proposition apparently contains
about all of the obnoxious feature* of the
gouth Carolina law, which has born so
pregnant of trouble and so fruitful of
violence and bloodshed. Why Mr. Wright,
a temperance advocate, should wish to
create a middle ground between prohibi
tion and open saloons Is not easily under
stood. Few of the counties which now
have license would be apt to adopt the
dispensary, while n number of !hoe that
ore now "dry" might be expet trd in vote
to toke "a little Ihiuor In thetr'n" through
the dispensary. If Mr Wright's proposi
tion were* adopted, the chances are that
much more liquor would Ik* sold and
drunk In Oeorgta than under the to a|
option law. It will Ik; an evil day for
the temperance cause In this state when
the substance ot real reform under local
option Is dropped to grasp at the shadow
of reform through dispensaries or prohi
bition.

The Inquiry that the board of army offi
cers lx making Into the IS-font project for
(tsvannuh harbor Is of very great Im
portance to this city. As Is well known
Ihe survey for the IS-fnot channel has
been made. The present Itoard Is to de
termine the tc.isltillttv of the project.
There la no doubt that deeper water ot
this port would be of vast benefit to the
commerce to this city. Since the com
pletion of the gft-foot project there has
been n very great Increase In the tonnage
and commerce of the port The Increase
doubtless is due In a great measure to
lower ocean frrlght rates, and the lower
rntes have come In consequence of the
fai t that the harbor now accommodate*
steamers of very large carrying capacity.
A channel from the city's wharves to
the sea, having a depth of 2t feet, would
atlll further lower the ocean freight rates,
and would be a powerful factor In bu.til
ing up the city's commerce. In view of
the number of great railroad systems hav
ing thetr seaboard termlmils here and the
very large extent of i-ountry for which
this oily Is the seaboard outlet. II Is
probable that Congress will regard with
fitvor the deeper water project, even
though a very considerable appropria
tion will he required to earry It out.
