"I shall endeavor to have Cuba fol-
low In the footsteps of the United
States" said President Touias Palma
the other day In a long conference
with Governor Jennings of Florida and
Colonel W. J. Bryan says the Havana
correspondent of the New York World.
"I am familiar with American his
tory and a great admirer of Washing-
ton and Uiicoln. One made the Union;
the other preserved It. Both dignified
it by gaining the respect of other na
tions.
'I feel grateful to the people of the
United States to whose sentiments re
garding Cuba the house nnd senate
promptly responded. President llcKln-
ley's delay nnd deliberation were due
to bis great Individual responsibility.
Congress bad a collective responsibil-
ity. "I have come to Cuba reluctantly
preferring my home at Central Val-
ley Jf. Y. nnd a quiet life with my
family rather than public life. But I
hare come because I felt It to be my
duty.
"I want Cubans and Spaniards to
turn tholr backs on the past and uult-
edly face the future Jointly combating
dllllcultles nnd problems.
"I want opposition for the betterment
of the government but not personal or
prejudicial opposition. I should be
ready and willing to heed criticism. I
think liberty of the press n-great na-
tional benefactor in pointing out tho
errors and improving the morals of tho
government."
Prosldcnt Palmn spoke kindly of the
clemency of the United States courts
and Judges that tried the filibusters
nnd particularly thanked the common
wealth of Florida for great help say-
ing: "The history of Cuba's success was
written on the Florida sands nnd thn
Florida keys openod the door to Cuban
liberty. Key West Is a ward of Ha-
vana being nearer to Cubn in point of
time than it 1b to the mainland of Flor-
ida. "Sanitation nnd education will con
tinue ns they havo been improved by
the military government I-nst year ull
South America was exceptionally free
from yellow fever. There may bo an
Increase this year but the Cuban gov-
ernment will employ tho utmost vigi
lance to maintain health and uninter-
rupted commercial relations. I believe
In the theory of the transmission of the
fever by mosquitoes but I agree with
Governor Jennings In the necessity of
keeping this city clean."
Governor Jennings interrupted to say
that It would be Impossible to maintain
open commerce with Florida ports un
less the sanitation In Havana was
good. Prosldcnt Palma assured him
that there would bo no cause for fear
the Interests being mutual.
President Palmn Bays bo shall bo
glad to show his respect for tho govern
ment of Spain and thinks the Cubans
should take nn Interest lu the "mother
country."
HOW TO EMPLOY INDIANS.
Novel Suviraatlou Slndo liy Ella II
Conptir
The problem of finding occupations
for our American Indians that would
bo nt once congenial nnd lucrative has
nover been successfully solved says
Ella II. Cooper In "How to Educate the
Indians" in Gunton's Magazine for
May. They have been placed nt tasks
for which they have no natural apti
tude and forced into competition with
tho skilled labor of alien races while
the nrts in which they excelled were
neglected. In basketry the most an-
cient of nrts their work cannot be sur-
passed yet we nre told that It Is fast
taking Its plnco among the lost and for-
gotten handicrafts. Had this Industry
been favored by protective legislation
It would have furnished remunerative
employment for the Indian nien and
women when not otherwise occupied.
A tariff that would have checked the
Influx of Japanese work competing In
the same line would have reserved this
homo market for our own aborigines.
The sweet grasses tho quills and
feathers the birch bark nnd beads all
the materials which the Indian has ap-
propriated nnd used with peculiar nnd
fascinating effect should be left In bis
skilful hands nnd encouragement and
guidance In the marketing of his wares
should not be lacklug. The hands that
weave the baskets can braid hats as
well. The sweet grasses that blend In
tho dainty fan would be no less effec-
tive in rustic outiug hats. Head por
tleres could bo strung by Indians as
well as by Asiatics nnd our homes
could be beautified by the labors nnd
geulus of thoso we have supplanted in
this land.
