WILUAH H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON. N. C. F&iday Houmrs, Jclt 17. DISTUBBAJTC1S I CUBA New York Sun: Some weeki ago the Sttn called attention to the ex istence of a discontented element in Cuba, and intimated the possibility of disorderly demonstrations. la no case now at all probable, if at all pos sible, will there occnr anything which need cause any serious appre hension. No uprising or reTolt be yond the ready power of the author Hies to suppress It need be expected. The seat of the trouble is the dis. Bitiifaction of an element which ex ist "in the ranks of the unpaid Army of liberation. This element protests -.r.in.t the delay in the proposed payment. Fire, months ago a bill was passea ana signed sumuiwiun th President to effect an "imme diate loan" of $35,000,000, a portion of which was to be distributed in rarmentfor military senicea ren' dered during the reTolution. The exWoldlers want their money, and some of them need it. It is from among these that the threat of "uprising" is heard. The Admin istration is blamed for the delay. But the great majority of the people of the island, both soldiery and citixens, are fully aware that any extensive "uprising," or even seri ous disturbance, would mean the total prostration of all hope of effecting the loan upon which the payment of the army depends. An unstable government, or a govern ment incapable or maintaining or der, is -not regarded in financial circles as a respectable debtor. The disaffected may indulge in loud talk, and a few of the most unrea sonable might even "take to the woods," although that is an ex tremely improbable event. Anything beyond the ready con trol of the authorities is as little likely to occur in Cuba as it is in Massachusetts or Indiana. As for the two features which are cited by alarmists are indicating a serious condition, no weight should be attached to them. An individ ual case of murder, apparently from motives of robbery, is not an alarm ing circumstance. Cuba is no more immune from such crimes than is any other land. The percentage of such crimes is even lower in Cuba than it is in most other countries. Such an occurrence is always unfor tunate, but it is not, in this in. stance, attributable either to po litical instability or to police ineffi ciency. Nor is the numerical weakening of the Rural Guard a ground for aarm. In a way" it may be rather regarded as a matter of congratula tion. The pay of the rank andjlle of that body is small; the expenses are considerable, including as they do the ownership of a horse and Its maintenance ; and the rules of the organization are very strict. It is rather an advantage to Cuba if a certain number of the able-bodied men of the island are turning from such a means of livelihood to that of paid employment in productive in dustries. It is somewhat of a ques tion whether the Bural Guard, as now organized, is not a mistake in any case. It becomes a ready in strument for political manipulation. The services of minor political henchmen may be rewarded by a place in its ranks. An unscrupu lous party being in power, it might easily be utilized in the furtherance of party interests." The proper meth od would doubtless be the establish ment of an adequate municipal police system which under the political organization of the island would embrace rural as well as urban areas. This might be supported by a State Detective organization for special cases. While the present system Is of unquestionable service, it is by no means certain that it is the best or the most desirable. At all events,such municipal force as now exists, the organized com panies of Cuban artillery, the Bural Guard, and those who would promptly volunteer In support of law and order, may be relied upon to take care of any such number of hot-heads as it is at all likely to participate in an uprising." The Cubans are quite as desirous of peace in their land as we are in oun . The Herald is doing a noble work for the poor people of New York during the warm weather they are experiencing up there.

He is strongly in favor of getting government aid in road building throughout the coun try, his plan being to let the gov ernment bear one-half the expense and the remainder be divided equally between the county and State, ine Senator says that no one t opposed to a road tax; the reason is evident the people want good roads and know that to get them they will have to pay for them. We make a few extracts from Mr. Latimer's speech : Only recently the fovernment has fafd out vast sums fOr ood roads in orto Rico and Ihe Philippine $1,000,000 in tha former and three Umn that amount in the Philippine islands. Why cannot we ret some of that money here for good roads t The roads are as bad to-day aa tbey were 100 years ajro. It will not take a treat amount to macadamize all tbe roads in the United States about $450,000,000 and this amount could be raised by taxing every acre of land one dollar. The increase in tbe value of the land by this operation would more than pay for the good roads. Every public road is a poat road therefore why not Improve the roads and thereby give rural free dellTery toalL Some one will ask whether or not we can get the aid of thfl government In this matter. Of eourse we can. While we may not look for immediate results, I believe we will get it in ne years. At the same time tbe people must get together and decide to pay t,i ta far mnd raid a. whalerer the tax whether three or five mills may be. Carolina White, aged 17, of New York, who insisted on celebrating the Fourth of July by firing a re Tolver, shot herself that day in the hand with a blank cartridge. No attention was paid to the wound, beyond dressing it, and tetanus de veloped afterwards. She was taken to the hospital. Her jaws were lock ed, but the doctors extracted two teeth so that they could feed her, and antitoxin was injected into her spine. This treatment waa so suc cessful that the doe tors believe the patient will live. CUKKENT COMMKNi About 20.000 soldiers in all went to Cuba and a few went to Porto Rico for a very bnef time. Disease has played havoc in a good miT mm, bnt onlv a few hun dred were wounded in war. A total of 243 were killed in Cuba, including thrum who died from wounds. Yet 12,000 claims for pensions have already been allowed; and, although more than 18,000 have been rejected, minv nf the remainder will have to be put on the list. It Is already plain that the claim agent is iixeiy to cost in more than the war cost, for his work will go on year after year. H or Id's HorJc. That trouble is brewing in the far east is generally conceded. Russia is rushing troops and sup plies in large volume to the leading points on the ttancnurian iron tier. Japan, on her part, is zealously at work preparing lor war ana is al ready in a state of preparedness which would put to shame many oi the European powers. The British and American fleets . in Chinese waters are being strengthened, and at Admiral Evans request the bat talion of 500 marines now m me Philippines, but under orders to return, has been kept there. Russia continues to protest against the charge that she is gobbling np China, but all indications tend to show that such is the fact, and that foreign countries cannot act too quickly if Russia's game is to be balked. New Orleans Picayune. The Philadelphia Ledaer sug gests a rural police as a protection to women and children against vio lence of the human wolf." Wouldn't work here. We have the country constable, but somehow he finds it more profitable in most cases to flock to the city where the opportunities for fee-grabbing are more tempting. The idea is, however, a capital one, and if Inaugurated, especially in sparsely settled regions where the "brute" generally operates, many of the crimes that call for mob vio lence would be prevented. An honest and efficient county constabulary would be a terror to evil doers and it would bring the State handsome returns, even if to establish such a system would cost a large sum at the start. It Is better to pay men for services well rendered in pre venting crime than to expend the same or a greater amount in crim inal costs. Jacksonville Times Union, warkias Nickt xy.
