POLICY A ‘TEMPORARY SUCCESS —_—__-—___ Uncertainty as to Future a Barrier to Investment. —__-—_—_—_ WHAT THE CLASSES WANT ——_>——- (Copyright. 1900, by J. D. Whelpley.) Special Correspondence of The Eveniug Star, HAVANA, March 23, 1900. The appointment of Quintin Bandera to an office in the Cuban government is as good an illustration of the real political conditions which exist on this {island as may be needed by any intelligent man. Bandera {s an ignorant. mischief-making and dangerous negro, who has devoted his time since Spain withdrew from Cuba to making all the trouble he possibly could for the Americans. Yet, with universal suf- frage. Bandera at this time might be elected president of Cuba. It is in the fear of the possible ascendancy of such influence as Is exercised by Bandera that the American control has insisted upon a restricted vote. It is Bandera and his ilk who make Cuban independence impossible, if the United States carries out in all honesty its avowed purpose of creating a stable government. Bandera has recently been making inflam- matory speeches. His mouth is now closed by a sop from the public crib, and many others like him are held in check by similar methods. That such men can be of any value in the public service is without the bounds of possibility. The only purpose of their inclusion in the official family is an attempt to draw their fangs. . Bandera is of the most virulent type of the unscrupulous, anti-American Cuban politician. Others are not so dangerous, but are. perhaps, more influential with a better class of people. Gen. Gomez, the military hero of the war, is resting quietly at home, though he, too, in a more intelli- gent way, is in favor of American with- drawal. Since the Americans came to Cuba Gen, Gomez has received from the public funds, on one pretext or another, $17,000 in cash. A temporary quiet is profitable to him under these circumstances, even as it is to the others. Gens. Rabi, Lara, Pedro and young Garcia, all these and many oth- ers, have taken offices at good salaries and expenses. Giving dinners to their friends and living luxuriously on their official in- comes ts about the extent of their acknowl- edgment of the fact that they are in the public pay. In short, the men dangerous to the peace of the {sland and the success of the American administration have been bribed at heavy cost to behave themselves. Only Whets Their Desires. No one can suppose for a moment that these men change thelr opinions, their character, or lose their ambitions when they accapt the military governor's shilling. Far from it; it whets their desire for un- restricted power. It increases their own i of their importance. It suggests sibilities and gives them position and ans to work out their scheme: temporary policy it is a suec will be no serious trouble in Cuba for some time. Any talk of an immediate general insurrection is sensational. Cuba will not force herself to the front with the p2ople of the United States in time to enter as a leading issue campaign of 1900. It is a latent issu er, and one which in time will overshadow in insistency and impbrtance many others which are now ab- sorbing the attention of the American peo- y of temporizing with evil ty to prolong the condition of pe which now exi It may possibly bi abont a solution of the Cuban ques ron without trouble, by giving the : sentiment time to grow. The m: of the Cubans want peace stability of government. of an independent republic now, for it is apparently the logical outcome of all that has gone before. The Cuban rules more from his heart than from his mind. He is sentimental, patriotic, home-loving and , but with all this he will not the readily accept a Cuban government is not more than a change of mas- ers. He is now determined upon a chang» of methods as well. There is a determina- tion on the part of the business interes of the island to prosper, and for prosperity ther> must be peace. If peace, justice and stability can only be secured by the annex- ation of Cuba to the United States, or by the exercise of a strong protectorate by the latter country, one or the other will in be favored by a vast majority of the Ie, though they are not ready to acknowledge this as yet. Money Not Being Invested. There is a great deal of money in Cuba available for investment, though it is also true that $10,000,000 in gold was with- and They are in favor drawn from the island to Spain during 1 The loc i money is kept either in Havana ign countries. Despite what has been done toward stability this money is not now flowing into investment channels to any appreciable degree. ‘The millions went to Spain because their own- red Cuban independence. The home not being invested by wealthy Cu- is money bans, not because they are waiting f independent republic, but because they If the Americans would issue a guar- that they were going to remain in control there would be a tremendous ont- ring of this money into localities and iness 2nterprises where it is sorely The prosperity of Cuba is not a political question; it is commercial. West Indian island of consequence Is treat- ed considerately by the United States e cept Cuba, To others we give reciprocity. To Porto Rico we give practically free e: try of her products into United States mar- ke Bey Tobacco and Sugar. The agriculture of Cuba is bas and tobacco. The customs dues fall heay- jest upon the latter article; in fact, so heavily that Cuba has now reached the full limit of the profitable cultivation of tobac- co. With concessions from the United States as to markets Cuba could increase her to- bacco output tenfold and find a market tor it all. The sugar business is depressed the world over. Cuba 1s held aloof by the United States and put upon the same basis as an entire commercial stranger. The problem of the effect of a friendly com: mereial attitude toward Cuba upon like in= dustries in the United States is another don sugar question. It is only the intention here to look at these matters from a Cuban point of view. From this standpoint an indepen- dent Cuba is a beggar at the gates. As a ial possession, with customs privileges similar to those of Porto Rico, or as an in- tegral part of the United States, Cuba would at once become immensely prosper- ous and perfectly safe as regards life, prop- erty and the dispensation of justice. The political bickerings of selfish and unscrupu- lous agitators would at once assume their true relation of insignificance to the real life of the people. At present the appoint- ment of a Cuban agitator to office ranks superior as a news item to the announce- ment that Cuban commerce ts sufferin; from competition created by the Unite States in neighboring islands. ‘The former is merely a surface ebullition, the latter a condition which strikes deep’ into the life of the people. Occupation Not Popular. For a time the people of Cuba will be opposed to the annexation of the island to the United States, or, in fact, anything less than complete independence. The Ameri- can occupation has not made itself particu- larly popular. The full flush of the possi- bilities of home rule are upon the people. This feeling is ingentously fostered and en- couraged by those who expect to profit thereby. The Spaniards, the owners of property among the Cubans, and the great mass of the people who are neither politi- cians, warriors or adventurers, desire a reign ‘of peace. They fear the possible re- currence of a time of war and they re- member the evils of the Spanish system, but they also recognize the military and’ re- straining character of the American occu- pation and realize that these Americans are aliens in blood and mind. The Spaniards generally favor an American contro! in- definitely continued, but their favor is not because of political or_so affillation, but is purely selfish and ‘Se al. The solid class of the natives ¥ for a Cuban re- ublic and at present they favor trying it. owing their own pegple_as they do, how- ever, they fear for its possibilities. As they gay, “In my heart.< mt see Cuba free. In_my head I fear ti] ‘er can be so.” These patriotic men right. Cuba never can be free in the they now give to the word. At first a ion of this truth will come as a-@hoek to many able and honest citizens w} isted in driving Spain from their. co: raf, Before the in- leptidence can never habitants agree that come to Cuba, it is eypn possible that the island will have to pass through another ordeal of fire. The are this will be avoided in its m the good sense of a majority of the Cuban people, but if piclenes, PRquia once more Prevail it will be the third and last purifi- cation necessary to fit a fertile land and an admirable people Yor the adoption of real civil Mberty and substantial and per- manent commercial prosperity. a THE FOOTPAD RETURNS TO US. Considerably Batteréd and Scarred, i But Still in the Ring. The footpad presented ‘a sorry appearance as he walked along the wunny side of Penn- sylvania avenue a few days ago. The jaunty, debonair air with which he car- ried himself prier to his. going to Chicago several weeks ago had: vanished, together with the color in his eheeks, for he was pale and weak and waiked with a painful Ump. He carried his left arm tenderly in a sling. “Oh, it's me all right, all right,” he sald, “only this time my astrologer says that my planete are in collision with Mercury and Jupiter. I collided with something else in Chicago—think of it, in Chicago. No, my best friend would not recognize me, nor the police, either—not that I am afraid of the detec’s, understand,” he added, fiercely, with an attempt at straightening up his once powerful trame that failed dismally. “Well, it was this way. Of course, you want the story. It is a brief tale of mis- placed confidence. I was red hot to get to Chicago and now I’m an iceberg to stay right here in dear little old Washington. I didn’t know when I wag well off. “The very first night I struck the windy city, at. about midnight, I happened to be on the aristocratic quarter of Prairie ave- nue, in a neighborhood which had been a Profitable field for me in times gone by, I saw a well-dressed gentleman approach- ing, smoking his cigar, evidently returning from a late dinner. He looked rich and L wanted his wallet. I stepped behind a large tree and waited for him to come up. Then I revealed myself and politely but firmly asked him to throw up his hands and be Pretty quick about it, too. “That man was unquestionably a gentle- man and one of engaging, accommodating manners. His hands went right up, but in the right, as he hauled them out of his overcoat pockets, was a revolver, and I felt a streak of fire go through my left shoulder and another through the same arm in less time than it takes me to wink. Was I standing there letting that fellow make a sieve of me and doing the baby act myself? No, sir. I was snapping the cylinder of my old revolver around like a buzz saw. But I am an Indian if I hadn't —how I cannot even now tell—failed to load it, and, of course, it wouldn't go off. “It took but about a. minute for me to find this out and the next found me legging it across the street with more bullets whis- tling about my ears in a manner that made me doubly ashamed of myself. Yes, I was running, and sprinting hard, too. But the evening's soiree had’ just begun. As I turned the corner I ran into the bay-win- dow stomach of a fat_poHceman. ‘Ouch!’ he grunted, gruffy. ‘Excuse me,’ said I, as I Ilammed him ove the head with the butt of my gun. He dropped. I skipped right along. He rolled over, pulled his pis- tol and sent a bullet along with me. It plowed a nice round hole through my thigh. Think of it. Plugged by a Chicago police man! To my undying shame I confess it.” And real tears stood in the highwayman’s hollow eyes. “Well, the wound in my leg didn’t stop 'y home-stretch gait. My lucky star sent a night hawk along thatyminute. [ made a lightning change act and got inside, and in fifteen minutes more I was in the flat of a friend ‘with a surgeon playing scissors and knives, with mes And there I stayed until I was ready, to take, the train. to Washington to recuperate. g “But theré ‘is a rift’ in the clouds of’ my gloom. I afterward learned@ that the fat cop I ran down was the chap who, though he has been on the oforce for over twenty years, enjoys the remarkable distinction of having never made an arrest. Such a ree- ord couldn't be made outside of Chicago, ut it is true. “If the big fellow had caught me that night, he'd broken his record.” = MISS REED GRADUATES IN LAW. Daughter of the Ex-Speaker Received Certificate Yesterday. Thomas B. Reed’s daughter, Miss Kath- erine Reed, was among the forty-eight young women who received the chancellor's certificate of the woman's law class of the University of New York last night. The exercises were held at the concert hall of Madison Square Garden. The young women have completed the five months’ work which teaches them the elementary principles of jurisprudence and gives them a working knowledge of commercial und business law.
