NEWS AND HERALD. PVR3fsffD TRI <' -BY Tm NEWS AND HERALD CO. rg148.IN AD' 7 Oe Yar. - * Sic A.Luths. - - - VINNSRORG, ' . Saturday. September 29, 1900 OUR ERROR IN CUBA. News and Courer. Senator Beveridge's speech at the Republican mais meeting in Ob-ago, Wednesday night, is of the same quality as the one he delivered in the senate on the sama general subject a few months ago- 200,000 copies of which were printed for di-tribution and then burned by order of ibe Re. publican campaign committee-and this is enough, perhaps, to say of it as a whole. The eminent gentleman con trived, hovrever, to put some interest into one part of it. "If the opposition," he said, "de clare that we ought to set up a separate government over the Philippines, be cause we are setting up a separate goverament over Cuba, I answer that such an error in Cuba does not justify the same error In the Philippines. I say that for the good of Cuba more even than for the good of the United States a separate government over Cuba, uncontrolled by the American Republic, never should have been per mitted." And again: "The resolutiou bastily passed by all parties in Congress, at an excited hour," declaring that the people of Cuba are, and of right ought to be, free and independent, "was an error, which years of time, propinquity of location, common commerce, ma terial interests and similar dangers surely will correct." "The President considers that resolution a promise. And so the unnatural experiment is to be tried. What war and nature-aye, what God hath joined together is to be put asunder." "I say that it will be an evil day for Cuba when the Stare and) Stripes come down from Morro Cutle." The distinguished orator was care - nl to say that in expressing these views he spoke for himself alone, but it is to be remembered that he is not a private citizen, and did not speak as one 'He spoke as a United States Senator, representing the party in con. trol of the government, to a mass meeting of the party in the seco'nd largest city in the country.. Had he spoken as a private citizen his speech would not have been worth noticing; it certainly would not have been tele graphed all over the country; and it to equally certain that it would not have been delivered in the same place and presence. [t is of interest, or the part we have quoted is of interest, only because of the position of the e. r, which affords the assurance t he did not speak for himself alone, but was reflecting (lie senti m'ents of other leaders of his party in what said. s 'nba has been a block the way of the eve ir PhilIp pine policy was a opted. of them ha;ve carefully avoided disenesifiytt4t pulie. None of them has tried i any place, to explain why the Philip pines, and Porto Rico, should be sub jugated and annexed as an incident o a arfor the liberation of anothei colony of the same power; why Cube should be Independent "of rig'ht,' and its sister islands should not be so. Senator Beveridge alone troets the diman~eity frankly and sqnarely. The noble declaration of American prin. ciples by the Smerican Congress, re Iterating the words of the founders oj the Republic, and applying them tc other straggling Arneric ans for out own time, was "paw~ I at an excited hour," and wsa in0 error," which it + to be "corrected" te.-'d er on some convenient pretent or oth.r- "propin Fquity of location, common commerce, material interests," or any thing of thai kind. We ought not to set n. a sepa rate governiment in the Pnihippinest becanse we ough. not to have Met up, or ipromised to set a'p a separate government in Cuba. We can correci our error as to Cuba in time. We must avoid committing it in the case of the Philippines. What "war and nature bath joined together" under a Republican administration, though sep arated by the sea, or the g' he, is not to be put asunder by tue opp i-mt, br, cause the hand of Provide. --i, in it all," and because. finally zand suffi ciently, "all men who understand production and exchange understand the commercial id va-itages resulting from our ownership of them, the richest possessions triat ever belonged to any nation." We may exense the rest of the speech for th3 sake of this part of it. It is the most honest deliver inca on the question to which it relates that the country has had so far from any Re publicto autharity.

G'reeneiuie New.* President McKinley has shown a decided appreciation of the superb qaalificat ions of college men in politi cal affairs. On the commission t bat he sent to the Philippines last year to in vestigate and report upon the candi tion of affairs in those islands were President Schurman, of Cornell Uni ver.ity, and Prof. Dean Worcester of Yale, we think. President Seth Low, of Columbia University, is to be offered one ot the places on the com mnission to negotiate peace with China. President Eliot, of Harvard, is spoken of for ambassador to Italy, and will probably be offered the position. * It has not been many years since a popular impression prevailed that col lege-bred men and college professors were impractical, that they knew noth ing outside of their studies and recita tion-rooms. It was always a mistake. It is a greater mistake now than it ever was before,- for the reason that eollege-bred men are taking more in It was always t rue that college ed cation was a help to any man. It could not make a Solomon of a dance, but it could and did make a wise man wi-ar. There are many wise men sound thinkers and judicious actors who have never been inside a college; but they would be much wiser if they had had that advantage, Numabcrs of pesky little politicians can be found who sincerely think, or tink they think, that they know in finitely more about government and "practical life" generallyAhan the most distinguished presidents of the best collegea in the country; and more than any college graduate who fools his time away with books and magazines and other "literary track." But the world has come to know that the thinking man is the wise man; that questions of government are grasped and handled with far more skill by men of trained intellects that by pot house politicians; and, speaking gene rally, that the man who studies and thinks is more capable of expressing a safe and sensible opinion on matters of public interest than one whose thinking never goes beyond the point of studying how to catch the popular breeze and utilizing popular prejudice for the purpose of his own political advancement. Lest we might be misunderstood, we say again that a college education is not necessary to correct views or to a high order of mental development only this, that all other things being equal-natural endowments. correct principles, etc.-the college-trained man is better equipped for serving his country and his generation than one not so trained. A Night of Terror. "Awful .anxiety was felt for the widow of the brave General Burnham, of Machins, Me., when the doctors said she could not live till morning," writes Mrs. S. H. Lincoln, who attend ed ner that fearful night. "All thought she must soon die from Pneumonia. but she begged for Dr. King's New Discovery, saying it had more than once saved her life. and had cured her of Consumption. After three small doses she slept easily all night, and its further use completoly cured her." This marvelous medicine is guaranteed to cure all Throat, Chest and Lung Diseases. Otly 50c. and $1.00.
