FRIDAY. JUNE 16, 1899.
THE man who would walk safely through the maze of poles must keep sober.
THERE will never be complete and harmonious co-operation between college and town so long as citizens are compelled to send their daughters away to school, or, lacking funds, are forced to forego the advantages of higher education for the girls.
WE can not believe that the council, or any member of it, seriously con templates selling the light plant. Such a course would be contrary to the will of the people and the tendency of the times. We rather believe that they are trying to learn how it may be placed on a more business like basis.
THE announcement that particular attention is to be given to public speaking hereafter at Wabash college will be greeted with joyful acclaim by all friends and alumni of the institution. A revival of oratory in old Wabash will be a large factor in extending her influence. Next to developing the assimilative powers of the student lies the duty of training him to tell what he knows. If he can tell it in public and in a clear and forcible manner he is a standing, talking advertisement of the institution that trained him.
ESTIMATES BB to the population of the United States in 1900 have just been made by three experts. Assistant Director of the Census Wines figures out his bureau will And about 75,000,000 people in the United States, exelusive of Hawaii and the territory gained BB a result of the Spanish war, when the enumeration is made next year. The government actuary, J. S. McCoy, estimates that the number will be 77,676,000. Prof. H. S. Pritcheet, superintendent of the coast sur vey, puts the number at 77,472,000, qualifying his calculation by Baying that it leaves a margin of possibly er ror of 250,000 either way.
THE President's recent order excepting several thousand offices from the operation of the civil service rules is being violently criticised by a great many ardent civil service reformers It is too early to judge justly as to the real effect of tnis order, whether it tends to weaken or improve the service. We have confidence enough in the President's honesty and sincerity to believe that he intended by his order to strengthen the cauBe of good government and that it is not an evidence that he has determined to appease the appetites of the spoilsmen. The time to comment intelligently on the President's action is when itB results can be seen.
VERY little difficulty will be experienced by the United States in the reconstruction of Cuba. It is evident that the annexation sentiment in the island is growing with great rapidity. There never was any real reason to doubt that a majority of the Cubans would be found to favor annexation at the time the choice would have to made between annexation and independence. This choice will not be made this year. A census of the population will have to be taken first. This will serve aB a basis on which to determine who is and who is not ontitled to vote. It is, of course, cer tain that the election will be participated in by all elements of the residents of Cuba—the Americans, Span iards, Englishmen, Germans and all other
Borts
of foreigners—as well as
the native Cubans. All, or virtually all, the foreigners, particularly the Spaniards, will declare for annexation. So will a large majority of the Cubans who are engaged in any kind of business, who hold any property, or who expect to be property holders or business men. On the same side, too, will be a large majority of the educated Cubans, whether they belong to any of, these ,last mentioned elements or not. The situation in the island is shaping itself in the real interest of the United
States and of Cuba.
Sncessful In Exauilnatiou.
