MAKISO PLEAS TO VIOLATE PLEDGES- f The majority of the Republican organs which sustain the policy qf the Administration as to the acqui sitions from Spain and the island of Pnha have for soma time been put - tin up pleas in advance to justify holding on to Cuba indefinitely if not perpetually. The line tl.ey follow is something similar to tins, which we clip from the Sesr York Tribune: 'The aWnge ide i expressed in ,mequrtrri tot the United otaies Govrnm-ut as na right lo rej -c , but mUSl WllDOUt qjewu stitutioaal Convention may fram and immediately- withdraw from the island. It is added that the United S'ts has, of course, no ngbi to aa mand av advance agreement as to tne relations that are to exist betweea Oaba and this couatry. but must UWe iU chances of equitable treatment along with all other nations and on the same terms with them." Following this up it argues: 'The irrational character of such conceptions of United States rights- and. we may aaa, acuiea 10 vu b obvious if we review briefly the circumstances of the intervention of 1898 Everybody knows that inter ventioa was not made solely for the sake of Cuban independence. It was to pat a stop to intolerable conditions oi misgoverament.and to secure the establishment of a new order which would rot be a menace to us or an offence to the . world 'l ask the Congress.' wrote the Presi dent in his intervention mes stge." to empower the 'President to take measures to secure in the island the establishment of a stable government capable of maintaining order and observing; its international obligation, insuring peace and tran quility and the security of its citizens as well as our owq " And in the sami memorable document he protested that the war in Cuoa must stop "in tbe nam of humanity, in the name of civilizitioa. in behalf of endangered A-nerican interests, wnica give us idb right and the duty o speak and act Congress authorized the President to intervene, but instead of echoing all he said in these quoted extracts it solemnly and unanimously declared as follows: "That the people of Gab are and of right out to oe free and independent That th United States hereby dis claims any disposition or intention to exercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or control over said isiand except for tbe pacification thereof, and asserts its determination when that is accom plished to leave the government and " control of the island to its people." Is there any doubt as to the meaning of a resolutio as plainly phrased as that? "The people of Cuba are and of right ought to be free and independent." Is that susceptible of more than one con- H-nfrmn? Was it intended that it Hull, filil w emphasize it and lea Cubans were reduced, and the pros- pective richness oi m Jf""" , the cupidity and the greed of the war directors and the disinterested motivo was forgottonand the solemn pledge ignored. They can't lay any claim to sover eignty over Cuba, for that was ex pressly disclaimed in adance, but with a characteristic trickery they now assert that we owe duties to ourselves, to Cuba aud the world tnat require us to exercise supervision over her constitution, and to hold on until a "stable" government, (whatever that may mean;, ly lished. Any govern tnenty which guards the lives and the property of the citizens and leaves tho;u free to go hiA coa.e aud enjoy their earn ings without peril or moltstatiou, that gives one citizen or person the protection of the laws the same as is given to other persons, where every ono has a chance to live, to pursue his avocation in peace and security, without oppression, and the laws based on justice are supreme, that ought to be a "stable" government that would meet the requirements regardless of the particular phraseol ogy of constitutions, etc., and if this is the kind of government the Cubans proposeior themselves it is no business of furs by what forms they reach that. All this talk about stable govern ment, as the Republican organs and party tricksters understand it, all this talk about duty to ourselves, to the Cubans and to the world is the veriest subterfuge, too apparent to deceive any one with an ordinary amount of common 'sense. Cuba may come to us some day, but if she ever does it shouldn't be by d theft, but by her 11 .J u . .

A res olution subsequently adopted speaks about stable Government but that was an afterthought and was prob ably put in as a sort of hedging scheme the same as the interest of the United States' phrase was in corporated in the- Philippine resolu tion adopted by the Senate on the ratification of the treaty with Spain. The Tribune quotes phrases from the President's message showing what he asked Congress to do, but standing out in bold relief against these is the resolution adopted unanimously by Congress, the sol emn pledge to Cuba and tbe world as to the motives that inspired this CANNED GOODS- A canning firm in Wilkesboro shipped to St. Louis several days ago four car loads of canned black berries, worth $5,000, and had five more car loads of other canned frond 9 tn ha shiDDed to the same M " ' market later, from which it appears that one canning firm, at least, in the State is doing, a pretty large business and is going about it in a business like way by finding a mar ket outside of the State for its goods. This first shipment of ber ries didn't cost a cent except for picking and canning, as they grow in the woods and are picked princi pally by children and other people who have little to do. What they bring in might be called clear gain. For years the worth Uaronna blackberry has been in demand in the West, and agents from firms that deal in the hae been in the habit of making annual visits to the berry packing towns to mase the sun and were berries dried in packed in barrels, not a very nice thing to look at, but apparently rel ished by the Western pie eaters. The canning is a decided improve ment on the drying method, and we have no doubt will prove more profitable. There is a big opening for this in dustry in connection with the- can ning of other fruits and vegetables, for the blackberry is one of the never-faii crops, which grows in the greatest abundance in all sec tions of the State and lasts through several weeks. There is little dan ger of over-doing the business, as there is always a reasonably good demand for the berry in the large cities of the North and West. SOME PERTINENT QTJST1U FOB. KB. WILSON. During the Presidential campaign the Republican party managers drafted into the service nearly all the cabinet officers, who took part In the campaign either with speeches or interviews in the newspapers, so now Boss Hanna has drafted Secre tary of Agriculture Wilson to help him boost his ship subsidy grab. Accordingly Mr. Wilson has been writing -to the farmers, telliiJg them Hanna's subsidy' scheme will be a good thing for them. But W is not having it all his orr way, for somo'of the agricultural joufial, which speak for tbe farmers and are supposed to know what' their senti ments are, are calliug Mr. Wilson to task aud are asking him syme very pertinent questions, among them the Rural New Yorker, one of the lead ing and ablest journals o that kind in the country. Iu alato issue it ralla Mr. Wilson to tasK auu pro pounds some inquiries, as follows: "Secretary of Agriculture Jan. a Wilson has declared in favor or the shipping bill which provides lare sub sidles for American ships He s tbat farmers need better freight ser vice lo foreign countries, and gives in stances to show where important freight has been delayed. He then says that from every point of view we should not depend on foreign ships, but that Americans should carry American freight We agree with the secretary, though we know from experience that it often pays better to hire some oue else to carry juui 5 our own hauling. If Mr. Wilson wishes to give the farmers real advice he should net stop with what they already know, but go on and tell us why the rich ship builders and steel makers need help from the govern ment. That is the point to be dis- Wh-c- thnuld the farmers be taxed to support a class of people who are better able to provide for them selves than most business wen? "Mr. Wilson is quoted as saying that he knew from correspondence that there is a practically universal senti the farmers in favor of the bill, and that those whoareagainst it are mainly those who do not under stand what advantages the bill will bring to the farmers. Our experience aud observation Indicate just the re vrrsi of that statement. The farm papers of the country are outspoken against tbe bill. The few farmers ho talk to us in favor of it seem to uve an idea that it is a party measure which will make their party stronger with certain rich men or in certain localties There are many farmers who now see in thf ir own business the res-ulis at former indirect taxation schemes. Hera is their question, jot Secretary perhaps you will answer it. Way, it our manufacturers can outdo the world on machinery and material, do they not build their on ships without help?'' The promoters of all these schemes go on the assumption that the farm ers have not the discriminating judg ment to tell the difference between a grab like the ship subsidy and a piece of honest legislation by which they and otheijp may be benefitted, and the habit ha been to try to make them believe that all such jobs are for their benent. mat s the way they were talked to to win tariff, which has cost them millions SUNDAY SERVICES.

WHOLESALE PRICES CDBBEIf . SUNDAY SELECTIONS. Chinese women are scarce and in demand in San Francisco, where fellows (Chinese) , make money by importing- them and selling them to other Chinamen. Five were sold a few day ago at prices ranging frorn $1,700 to $2,500. Thatakind of traffic has been going du for fern years and there does not mem to Government in espousing the cause 1 haTe been any serious eft orJ i made of Cuba. While with the masses of the peo ple of the United States it was a case of sympathy with the Cubans struggling for liberty, sympathy in tensified by the atrocities perpe trated by the Spanish generals in command, no oe supposes that it was sympathy alone which influ enced the powers at 'Washington to act. They justified intervention partly on the ground of the injury done this country by the continued strife in the island, the loss in trade, etc, and it is more than probable that even then they hoped to turn intervention to some ac count , in r securing a dominating influence ' iti the island and thus reaping benefits that would compensate for intervention. This cropped out pretty soon after the landing of the American troops, and the little regard those in com mand paid to the Cuban army or the commanders of that army, both of whom took very little part in the active operations against the Span iards. The fact is they were practi cally ignored and to such an extent that the Cuban General in command talked about disbanding his army and retiring from, the field. The Cuban soldiers were purposely kept in the background, just as the Fili- ipno soldiers were after the arrival at Manila of the 'American army. This caused considerable friction and soon led to war in the Philippines. .

The habit has been to hold the Chinese people responsible . for all the outrages in China, and while no one will excuse or palliate the atrocities perpetrated by the Boxers, there are still, two sides to this question and the atrocities perpetra ted by the representatives of the so called Christian powers should not be forgotten. In a recent sermon before a missionary society in New York Bishop Potter thus rebuked the outrages which have done so much to retard the progress of Christianity in China, and brought disgrace upon Christian nations. He said: 'If I were called upon to-night for a brief for either of tbe two great con testants in the present struggle be tween China and the powers, I should choose in favor of China. In my opinion, we should be ashamed of our selves for our treatment of tbe Chinese. We have trampled on their most sacred traditions, we have ridiculed and 6coffed at tbeir gods, p have laughed at their ancestor wonTbi p. Is it any wonder that the Chinese have risen against us? Our treatment of the Chinese has been a diss race to our religion, and we should despise our selves for it. We have sent men over' there who are not Christians, but sav ages, and who have trailed the name of Christian in the dust. "What we need to do first of all is to convert the people we send to the Chinese, and then convert the Chinese. We must do this before we can ever be successful in our missions. We should create a Public sentiment that will raise up our whole treatment of the Orientals. Instead of scoffing at their gods, let us show them a better One in our own unnsuanriy. uo us treat them like brothers. Uur trades men have gone there to get what they can.
