There are many intelligent men in Cuba. The mem! rs of the con stitutional convention are familiar with governmental systems. There uneed be no apprehension that they will fail to ! provide the means for giving stability to | the government that shall estab- lished and assuring the orderly opera tion of law. To doubt this is to ques- tion the fitness of the Cubans for seif- government.

In this way we shall win the cordlal friendship of all | Cubans and strengthen the hond of in- | | be of organizing the ment, that | terest between the island and this coun- try. Further interference, on the other hand, would intensify the feeling of dis trust which many Cubans have towara us and possibly lead to the undoing of | what has been accomplished. The triumph of the conservative ele ment in the Cuban convention Is grati- fying evidence that the prevailing spirit in Cuba is for peace and order. There is in this the promise of stability for the new government and of steady in dustrinl and commercial development for the island. ——— PREPARING FOR THE CONTEST. Both the manufacturers in the metal | trades and the machinists are preparing for the contest which It is evidently be lieved by both will be protracted, The convention of manufacturers made an assessment on its members of half a million dollars to be used in fighting the machinists and aunounced that more money would be ralsed if needed. It was also decided to leave the guestion of wages entirely in the hands of In dividual employers and not to recognize auy labor organization. The machinists are receiving encouragement from other labor assoclations and President Gomp ers of the Federation of Labor is re- ported as saying that it will extend all the aid it can to the machinists, The attitude of the members of the Metal Trades assoclation, as shown in the actlon of their convention, Is one of fixed determination to resist to the last the demands of the machnists, while the latter appear to be no less firm in thelr purpose to yleld nothing. The contest fs not now wholly for a nine-hour day without any reduction in pay. but involves also the existence of the Metal Workers' association, The manufacturers charge that the associa tion b e faith with them in violating the agreement that there should be no strike or lockout until differences had been submitted to arbitration and they propose to have nothing more to do with the association. Faflure on the part of the machinists, therefore, would mean the death of their organization and this will intensify the struggle and gives the machinists a stronger claim to the sym pathy and support of organized labor than they otherwise would have, BANKING GROW The banking business has experienced remarkable growth in the past year. This {s showun In the reports of national banks made to the comptroller of the currency of their condition on April 24, the date of the last call made on them, The loans and discounts of the na tional banks at that time fell but little short of $3.000,000,000, which was an increase of $345,000,000 fn a year. The individual deposits also amounted to 00,000, The aggregate re- sources of the banks Increased 17 per cent in the year. Doubtless the business of the state banks lucreased to nearly or quite the same degree. The fact that the national bank circulation is than the law would permit shows that much the greater part of the business done by the banks is strietly banking business in distinction from the circula The New York Journal of Commerce remarks that it is but a little way back to 1800 and yet in this short interval | standpoint we the loans and discounts have increased 5 st and the individual deposits bave very vearly doubled.

A Manila dispatch to the New York Sun says “the native lumbermen of Manila will petition the Philippine commission for leg- islation making compulsory the use of Phil ippine lumber in insular improvements in preference to that imported from Borneo and the United States. The lumbermen argue that such action would give em- ployment to numerous natives who are now | out of work aad bring the Insyrrection to an end, besides glviog encouragement to native industries.”* | At least one American company, with Congressman Hull of lowa at its head, s already in the lumber field, with sawmills and other necessary local market area of comm known equipment to #upply with native timber. The 1al timber is not definitely Superficial examination by Amer- feans give the impression that vast forests of valuable hardwood exist on the islands. This Is not borne out by the testimony of a more experienced observer In his work on the “Inbabitants of the Philippines,” re- cently published, Frederick H. Sawyer says the foresial value of the islands is grossly exaggerated. According to this observant writer, who spent fifteen years on the | | | ‘ot bis | 1#1ands, the forests of Luzon, during Span- while nt are e third- is an s cne- press erm as le ora- fon ot for a r shat- prest- it of stul in otwith olftical le kind This ey will marred Any the gomo- term er the super- was to doubt, D, The the avoRor | does. mature b the t what ish domination, supplied enormous quanti- ties of the finest timber for bullding houses, churches, convents, bridges, war- ships, lighters and canoes. No care was ever taken, however, to replant, and the result is that at the present day long logs of the most desirable kinds of timber are not obtainable in Luzon except in the most distant and least accessible parts of that island. Only in the fever-stricken island of Mindoro and in certain sections of Tala- wan and Mindanao are large and valuable trees to be met with in considerable quan- tjties. It is further to 'ba noted that in the Philippines valuable trees do not grow together in clusters as they do in the for- ests of California and Oregon. The number of logs derivable from any given district would bo #o small that a tramway would be unprofitable. As for exporting the tim- bers of the Philippines to the United States or elsewhere there is no need to do that, inasmuch as the demand for timber in Manila and other towns {s greater than the supply. On the other hand, Oregon or Norway pine fs useless for building pur- poses In the archipelago, inasmuch as it is devoured within a year or two by the white ant. It seems that, in spite of warnings, the United States military authorities have constructed stables and storehouses of this timber. o far as Mr. Sawyer could learn there is no true teak wood In tho Philippines, nelther is true ebony found in the forests.
