’ Bimini Their 'Eclipse Lies Their Security

., , » Against Absorption.

The aspiration-with which the Queen
Regent Of_.Holland‘ closes the procla-
Imxation in' 'Which. she announces the
accesionofmerdaughter to royal pow-
ers, that Holland f‘may become great
in everything imwhlch a small nation
'Can be great,"’..~is evidence that she
rpalizes .that..this_.is an age in which
iitfle countries will do very Well if
rtheydo not become less. This is an
age "of consolidation of power by the
"expansion otterritory. Small nations,
lthose withagpopulaltion of, a few mil-
lions, that yet .retain their indepen-
dence, owe retentionmore to good for:
tong than to their ability in arms.
.The chief element of this good fortune
is therivalry among the larger nations

, that wouldabsorbthem, and the de-

termination of each. of the great pow-

ers that the others shall make no aca

quisltion that shall upset the balance
of power. For this reason such small
countries as Switzerland, Belgium,
Holland, Portugaland Greece are al-
lowed to continue .on..the map. Ger-
many would like .to..absorb Holland
but that :wauldunot Lbe tolerated ‘by
England.

France._~has long cast‘shungry eyes
on Belgium. but Germany-vetoes the
fulfilment of French desires and Eng-
land sWould not be .indifierent. We all
recall lhow Bismarck used to dangle
:before the eyes of Napoleon III. the
sugge’stion thatsome day or other as
the reward for his xneutrality (during
xPru-ssia's progress in aggr‘andizement
a slice of Belgium might be given to
France. "Switzerland is surrounded by
.coyetous neighbors. Italy «would like

the S‘ iss cantons; France would be
pleas

_ ,, .to rectify her frontier. at the
Swiss expense. Germany has a simi-
lar‘ wish, but Austria wouldvnot con-
sent to apartition of Switzerland that:
did not give _her predominance, and
agafnst this ,all the ' other would-be
partitioners would‘be up ip arms. Port-

- ugal is protected 'by British friend-
ship, 'which takes care to make .a
'good tfiing for its-elf outbf thebld-
,timerelations-hip. I " ,

These small nations all li-vequite
comfortably in their isolation from
great interests, but the day is past
when they can expand their territor-
ies or repeat the great deeds of their
prime. Swltzerland lives on the sum-

.3 mer visitors; and what Portugal lives

on is mainly memory, a drowsy little
power in a corner by herself. Holland
still has a great colonial empire, with
'a native population of more than 30,—
000,000, and does a ,snug business, ac-
, cumulates money and is in every way
i a most respectable little country, only

‘ :é asking to be let alone. Neither by land

or sea is Holland a formidable power.

'- Her lirmy is verysmall, as must be the

case. with a country whose population
is about 5,000,000, mostly burghers of
the most unmilitary taste. The Dutch
navy is likewise small, and the carry-
ing trade of Holland isbut the shadow
)f what it once was.

The Hollanders are a stout hearted
race, but in these days the battle is
with the strong, who have a good or-
ganization. That Holland may long
continue to dream beside her canals

"inpeace is the wish of her people.
xvho, however, are rather disquieted
at seeing the scepter pass into the
hands of a young girl. They realize
that'ambitious neighboring nations
. may aspire to control Holland by dy-

‘ nastic alliance, and are naturally anx-

ious that the Queen’s choice of a bus-
band shall not fall upon a prince
whose kinsmen may or can make him
the agent of a scheme to subvert the
independence of the kingdom. Hol-
land is‘ a constitutional kingdom,
where the people are the source of
power, but even in such a country the
Queen’s husband may exert an'influ-
ence which the laws are powerless to
defeat—Boston Transcrint.
Lincoln's Famous Letter.
. A copy of the following letter of
, 'Abraham Lincoln, written to a Mrs.
,Bixby, of Boston, has been engrossed,
framed and hung in one of the Oxford
University (England) halls, as “a
specimen of the, purest English. and
elegant diction extant:
Dear Madam: I have been. shown
”in the files Of the War Department a

E tatement of the Adjutant General oi;

Massachusetts that you are the moth-
I.r of‘five sons who have died glori-
‘c usly on the field of battle. I feel how
weak and fruitless must be any words
of mine which should attempt to be-
guile you fromgrlef of a loss so over-
whelming. But I cannot refrain from
tendering to you the consolation that
may be found in the thanks of the
gRepublic they died to save. I pray
,that our Heavenly Father may as
suage the anguish of your bereave-
ment and leaveyou only the cherished
[memory of the lOved and lost and the
gsolemn pride that must be yours to

‘THE OCCUPATION OF «Susi: .

 

{Aspects of Gen. Greenelsr Assignment

. the Complaint! of the Division.
Washington, Oct. 15.——The order is-
sued yesterday to General Francis “V.
Greene to report to General _Lee at
Jacksonville is corroborative evidence
of the intention of/the administration
to send General Lee back to Cuba as
the dramatic climax of the war.

'VVhen General Greene was called to
WashingtOn by . the president last
spring, he was told that it was de-
sired to send him to Manila. "He told
the president frankly that he preferred
not to go there, as his great hope was
to see. active service in Cuba. Rear
Admiral "Dewey; he argued, had done
substantially all the work at Manila
already. -

“You shall have service in Cuba,”
was the president’s response.

“But it is a. long way to Manila, Mr.
President-33 persisted General Greene,
“and by the time I get there, perform
the duty required of me, and return,
the siege of Havana may be over.”

“I will see to it that you lose none Of
that campaign," the president again
assured him.

With this understanding, 'General
Greene accepted the assignment to du-
ty at Manila. It was this fact which
gave the. strong tone to predictions
then made that the campaign against
Havana wnuld not be begun before the
fall.

The president is now carrying out his
promise. General Lee is destined to go
back to Havana under conditions more
imposing than those amid which he
quitted the city lasr spring, and Gen-
eral Greene will go with him. _

"NO‘ one expects the duty of either of-
ficer to include a siege of the city, but
General Greene will have his share in
all the siege there is.

The secretary of the .t’reasury has

Cuban general Sanchez

be permitted entry free of duty in

ure.

This would mean the remission 01'
$100,000 in duties, but the secretary 01‘
the treasury considers.,that the circum-

ties as a matter of charity.

 

GEN. GARCIA’S ATTITUDE.

 

Denial That He Has Accepted 3 1’04
froln Gen. Lawton

Havana, Oct. 15.9-The aide-de-camp
and secretary og‘General Calixto Gar-
cia, Cosme de la» Torriente, is quoted
in an interviewas saying that the gen-
eral has not accepted any post from
General Lawton .01? the other American
officials, that it is; not true-that he is
making a tour of the eastern part Of
Cuba advising the disbanding of the
Cuban army, and that there is no truth
in the statement that Garcia is going
to the United States for the purpose Of
endeavoring to raise a loan, which he
has no auhority to do.

The aide further asserted that Garcia
has not denied the legality Of the act—
ual revolutionary government of Cuba
nor has he accepted the supremacy of
the United States. But, it appears,
Garcia has unofficially expressed the
opinion that the present Cuban govern-
ment, owing to lack Of members and
personnel, could not be considered lc—
gal, as .a quorum was impossible, and
therefore its actions .are unconstitu—
tionall.

General Garcia in all questions of
authority at the present moment only
recognizes the general-in-chief of the
Cuban army, though he recognizes the
“transitory government of the United
States as a. consequence of interven-
tion," and being commanded by the
revolutionary government to accept it
and to co—Operate with the American
army at Santiago, he obeyed orders.

Further, General Garcia. is alleged to
advocate the “closest union between
the Spaniards and Cubans on the is-
land, forgetting the past and uniting;
in every effort looking to the establish-
ment Of independence."

These statements are considered am-
ong the Spaniards here as indicating
Garcia’s real attitude towards the Uni-
ted States and the future of Cuba.

Cairo, Oct. 15.—A steamer having on
board an Officer belonging to the
French force, under the command of
Major Marchand, now at Fashoda, on
the Nile, has arrived at Khartoum.

This officer is the bearer of the re-
port sent for by the French minister
for foreign affairs, M. Delcasse, .by
courtesy Of‘ the British government,
over the Anglo—Egyptian lines of com—
munication. - .

The Officer will probably proceed to
Cairo in order to be able to use the
Official cipher of the French consulate
here for transmitting the report to
Paris. '

Quiet iii-Jamaica.

Kingston, Jamaica, Oct. 15.——The crio
minal charges against the maroons
have been withdrawn, thus reducing
the case against them to one Of simple
trespass under the civil code.

The presence of troops in the dis-
turbed district has created an excellbnt
impression and has stopped all riotous
demonstrations. _ a}

Perfect tranquility now prevails, but
the government recognizes the neces-
sity for vigilance until the present
disturbed conditions have changed for
the“ better.

To Sail Under Our Flag.

Tacoma, Oct. 15.——It is stated on good
authority that the Northern Pacific
Steamship Company is arranging to
put under the American flag six British
steamers, which itis operating to Chi-
na. and Japan from this city.

These steamers incllide the transport
Arizona, the Tacoma, Olympia, Colum-
bia, and Argyle. .

It is believed that the Arizona will
be transferred back to the Northern

ernment no longer needs her -, ser-

"‘1 want a copy of Victor Hugo’s

entered the booksellers-shop. She ex-
.pressed herself thus vaguely, because
she is nevrous about her French. “I
don't think we have any book of- that
name,” responded the youth behind
the counter. “That is not the name. of
the work. It merely describes it,” re-
joined the customer. “Published

many years ago. Surely you have

don’t know whether we have or not.
