Americans are beginning to get goods of many kinds nearly as cheaply as they would if they had free access to the world's markets. DIFFICULT SITUATION AT MANILA. The situation at Manila, as revealed In the recent dispatches, Is a very complicated and embarrassing one. The Spanish-officer in command at Manila Is willing to surrender to General Merritt at any moment, but General Merritt has not asked or desired him to do so. Admiral Dewey reported In May that he could take Manila whenever he chose, but he has not so far chosen to do It.

Aguinaldo and his savages are the embarrassing factor. They have surrounded the city, and propose murder and pillage if they get possession. They are in such large numbers that the Americans cannot control them. It Is upon the arrival of American reinforcements that everything waits. When the city surrenders Aguinaldo will expect to enter it with his troops, and will have to be kept out by force.

It will be a critical moment when Aguinaldo, like Garcia, learns that he is "not in it" at all. As he Is ignorant and conceited and has a large army he is dangerous. The problem now is to amuse him till General Merritt has plenty of troops at hand. After that events will develop rapidly. Manila will surrender and Aguinaldo will be sent about his business.

NOTICf-Js. at Honolulu and has, it Is evident, been representing himself as well, "casting an anchor to windward," as another famous Maine statesman once said." Some nice dickering has been in progress in our far-off possessions to bring about such a revolution In President Dole's prospects.

President McKinley can hardly afford to disregard Mr. Dole's prior claim. It would be a dolorous end to Mr. Dole's dream of power and glory if he did. OUR DUTIES AS MASTERS OF CUBA.

It Is a very intelligible hypothesis that the petition sent to President McKinley by Cuban patriots near Santiago is the composition of office-seekers who have not yet shouldered a gun In freedom's cause. No one is so patriotic, or so often mouths the vocabulary of liberty, as the would-be beneficiary of a new deal. The Cuban schemers who secured our Interference in Cuba in the sacred name of humanity had the simple idea that the triumph of our arms meant their appointment to lucrative offices. They were to get the fat places filled hitherto by titled Hidalgoes, and that without much regard forltheir fitness to discharge honestly, justly or efficiently the duties of administrators of Cuba's affairs. It naturally shocks these patriots to see Santiago governed by an American, not a Cuban, officer, and the entire administration of the city left in the hands of Spaniards or Cubans loyal to Spain.

If the patriots were not to be allowed to loot the homes and public buildings, they ought at least, they think, to be allowed to hold the offices and thus consume the proceeds of taxation. The feeling of the Cuban patriots is very hot against the Americans, and, according to the advices of the New York nerald, they have almost reached the point of being willing to turn their guns upon us, their supposed allies and deliverers. "We Cubans," they say, "have been treated shamefully. Our leaders have been ignored, our protests have not been considered and no regard has been had for our wishes or feelings. We believe in the honesty and good faith of the people of the United States, and in their desire, without ulterior motives, to liberate Cuba, but what are we to think of the army of liberators entering into possession of the ceded territory like a rough-shod conqueror, and treating their allies the people they came to free with less consideration than the enemy? If it is necessary to exclude the Cuban army from Santiago for the present, let it be understood that it is done from motives of policy, and do not issue orders which superior force alone compels us to obey." It is only our "superior force" that prevented the Cubans from entering Santiago after its capture and repeating there the murder and pillage practiced -at other places.

An officer at the front explains that our "superior force" is now required to protect the Spanish troops who have surrendered. "We have," he says, "a large number of prisoners on hand, many of whom are on parole. We are bound in faith and honor to protect these unarmed men, to see that the terms of surrender are carried out, and that their safe conduct to Spain is assured. What would be the result of admitting Garcia's ill-timed levies. We would be compelled to withdraw the troops now guarding the prisoners, to act as patrols, in preventing Cuban outbreaks and acts of retaliation and revenge.

Merchants and private having a stake In the town, although Cuban sympathizers, have implored us not to allow the Cuban troops to enter." It is our duty to consider also what is to become of the numerous other towns and cities of Cuba, after the Spanish troops are withdrawn from them. At present they are protected from the assaults of the patriots by the arms of the Spanish. There are some 40,000 loyal Cuban guerillas, citizens of the various towns, against whom the rebels feel very bitterly. As respects these, the war Is a civil war and has produced the usual crop of animosities. Each side remembers against the other many brutal murders and cruel burnings of homes and losses, so that it will not do to place any part of Cuba, now held by General Blanco, at the mercy of the native warriors.

It follows that we shall need to occupy with our troops all the towns of Cuba as fast as they are evacuated by the Spanish, in order to safeguard the population for which we shall have become responsible. A single massacre in a remote part of Cuba, after we have expelled the Spanish, would rest upon our national conscience and discredit our humanity. The occupation by us of the whole of Cuba might not need to be long continued, since the Cuban patriots who want control may subside quietly when they see we "mean business," but this cannot be known in advance. We shall need to keep at least 50,000 men there for a time to do the work which Spain now does badly with three times that number. Should the Cubans fight us if we should finally refuse to recognize Cuba Libre as they promised to do last April a much larger force might need to be kept In Cuba.

PUBLIC FRANCHISES. At the meeting of the League of American Municipalities in Detroit Monday the president, Mayor John MacVickar, of Des Moines, devoted a large part of his address to the subject of the public ownership of franchises. As one of the first steps In th- solution of the problem of better municipal government he declared It essential "to eliminate from our cities the private ownership of franchises for the monopolized use of the streets." There must, he said, "be an end to the controlling and corrupting of our city governments by those interested in providing for public comfort, even if the last vestige of private ownership in them shall be uprooted." If these valuable, franchises, these splendid privileges were reserved to the cities, he asked, would not this source of corruption, which has caused legislative bodies to become a byword among the people, cease to exist? Mr. MacVickar believes that it would, provided the merit system in appointments, promotions and removals from office were first established. He admits it would be suicidal to thus enlarge the functions of municipalities while the spoilsman has full sway.

Otherwise we would be jumping from the frying pan into the fire to confide such Important franchises to the tender mercies of political machines. Until the politician has been shorn of his power to use municipal offices for his private benefit and as rewards for his followers It will scarcely be wise to add to his opportunities for public plunder. WHY IMPORTS ARE SMALL. After noting that our exports In 189S were worth and our Imports but the Philadelphia Mann-' facturer observes that our exports were greater than in any preceding year and our Imports less than in any year since 18S5, and asks what caused the decline in imports In the midst of so much prosperity. The reason, according to our protectionist contemporary.

Is, of course, the tariff. The tariff is nearly prohibitive on large classes of manufactured articles aud tariff revenue suffers in consequence. The Dingley act was intended to exclude foreign competition and it has done so. The new Internal taxes were Imposed because Mr. Dingley knew that a higher tariff would extinguish the already vanishing revenue from taxation of Imported goods.

There Is, however, some truth In the allegation of our contemporary that the decline of imports may be explained as due in part to the increased efficiency of our own producers. They are able under the tuition of recent hard times to produce at low cost at figures so low that they compete in various lines with foreign manufactures in neutral markets.

BALTIMORE. WEDNESDai', AUG. 3. THE CONDITCT OF THE WAR. Inspector-General Breckinridge, in his report of the operations of the American army against Santiago, practically admits the justice of some of the criticism directed agalnt the War Department for its alleged mismanagement.

General Breckinridge is an officer of the regular army and has reported the facts as they appeared to him after a careful examination without fear and without prejudice. "The entire absence of the usual comforts and conveniences of even the simplest army life during the expedition," he declares, "and sometimes of medical essentials even in the hour of utmost need, was one of its most marked features after landing. The means of expediting the landing of stores seemed inadequate, even to the last, and it is understood that lighter after lighter, ordered to the Cuban const was sunk at sea, and the lack of quick communication between the vessels or of any launches was apparently Irremediable." General Breckinridge's conclusions, briefly stated, are as follows: "Only one mile from the base of supplies, our men needed nearly all the necessaries of war and many of the necessaries and all the comforts of life." This is an arraignment which Secretary of War Alger and his associates In the War Department will scarcely feel like ignoring, and it may be expected to lead to an Investigation which will place the responsibility for the mismanagement where it properly belongs. The Philadelphia Ledger is of the opinion that, the history of the war as it is written in the records of Secretary Alger's department is one of "unparalleled blundering, incompetency and inertness." In the report of Inspector-General Breckinridge it finds confirmation of the charges which were made at the time the Santiago expedition was organized at Tampa, charges which the War Department indignantly denied. At Tampa, says the Ledger, the railroads were congested with supplies which were not made available; the commissary department was like a man paralyzed, and disorder was the prevailing condition everywhere and in everything.

When Santiago was reached there were no facilities provided for landing the artillery or even the ordinary supplies. Teats, clothing, rations and medicines were In the hoids of the ships. The delay of the War Department, says the Ledger, In sending not only troops, but munitions of war and supplies to Dewey at Manila was even more dilatory and censurable. "Manila could and would have been under the American flag long ago had the most ordinary intelligence and energy directed the operations of the War Department." In view of all the facts and what It terms the "gross incompetency of the War Department," the Ledger asserts that "our victories have been won by the superior Intelligence, courage and energy of our soldiers in the face of extraordinary difficulties and hindrances originating in the Department of War." It is, of course, very much easier to criticise than it Is to arrange and execute without a flaw the invasion of an enemy's country and the capture of one of his strongholds. Possibly the War Department has not measured up to its opportunities, and the army has suffered from' lack of food and medicines when there was no cause for it.

To what extent the unfortunate conditions which are alleged to exist are due to political appointments will never be known, but in some measure the evils complained of may be traced to a zeal for party advantage which it seems to be almost Impossible to avoid under our system of government. "Secretary Alger," says the Ledger, "is first, if not last of all, a politician, and naturally he is conducting the War Department on a political basis." It is to be hoped that Secretary Alger will demonstrate that his critics do him an injustice when they assert that he Is running the War Department as a political bureau, and he may be expected to enter a vigorous remonstrance against such accusations. The statements made by General Breckinridge, however, should be given the Secretary's most serious consideration in order that the army may be protected In the future from such mismanagement as seemed to exist at Tampa FREE CUBAN SUGAR AND BEET SUGAR INTERESTS. In the Omaha Bee the effect of annexation of Hawaii and Cuba on Nebraska beet sugar is discussed suggestively by Mr. H.

T. Oxnard. We have had free sugar from Hawaii for a long time and the Nebraska sugar industry has been able to flourish in competition with the limited product of Hawaii, but the acquisition of Cuba and the free admission of Cuba's vast crop will be, it is held, a deadly blow to Nebraska's beet sugar industry. Already the Nebraska industry is affected and the new policy promises to be fatal to It. "I cannot understand." says Mr.

Oxnard, "how farmers of this country can for one moment entertain a proposition Intended to deprive them of all possibility of profit In one of the most valuable crops tfcey can raise. No one will put money in beet sugar factories while the menace of Cuban annexation is hanging over us. The question must be settled, because the suspense Is almost as bad as annexation would be. On the other hand, should the question of territorial expansion be decided positively by the announcement of a determination to abide by our traditional policy and to refuse to be tempted by such dangerous gifts as Cuba and the Philippines, I believe the beet sugar Industry will begin to expand not only In Nebraska, but In all agricultural States suitable for beet sugar culture." Evidently the policy of annexation is going to disturb many American interests In ways our howlers for war did not anticipate. A PLUM SNATCHED AT.
