In this free country, with universal education, with the richest natural re sources in the world, needing only de velopment by moans of labor and cap ital to produce wealth enough to lift the entire population above want, the fact remains th.U the numbers of the able-bodied poor are very great, and the condition Is not confined to hard times. Ten million people au eighth of the entire population are in con- J dition of what may be considered ex- treme want. Yet it is suited on good j statistical authority that within a hun-j dred miles of New York city, where! . .. , , i there is a very large poverty -sincKeii population, there are hundreds of , abandoned farms with thousands of acres of idle land. Not only Is this true, but within the territory named ; there are allowed to go to waste eaeh:stase caches the limit which is very year thousands of bushels of apples. garden truck and other produce, much of It being left to rot on the ground. Something like this can be said of every city where unemployed people are found In large numbers.

Dalzell of Pennsylvania, j ,atjveg Payne of New York and Tawney of Minnesota are not a hopeless group of scrappers by any means. They have reached a position where they really believe they can dictate terms! of peace. Their claims rest mainly on "Calendar Tuesday", or a call of : committees, giving members a chance I to get their bills before the House I . .. , and rescuing from the Speaker, the. appointment of committees. They de- sire to place their appointive power In the hands of a committee of the House to be known as the Committee on Rules. Uncle Joe has given out that he is willing to make concessions to the insurgents. He Is willing to admit that the members have a right to get their bills before the House and will give his consent to the "Cal endar Tuesday.". This means that Speaker Cannon has learned that the twenty-five men of the dissatisfied ! group are not the full muster wi.h whom he has to reckon. It Is anticipated that new members in the I next House will probably be with the Insurgents who hold over. The Speak er evidently recognizes the necessity of placating the new as well as the old members. We understand that after all there Is to be no beauty Bquad from Con gress to attend Mr. Taft at the In auguration. Presumably the competi tion was so keen that the committee could not bear' up under it and de cided on that maxim that has been the consolation of homely women everywhere, "beauty is only skin deep," to cover thxir defeat in pro viding ApoMos for the occasion.

CUBA S SOLDIER CHIEF STORIES OF C0DUEL1M Characteristics of Jose Miguel Gomez, Her New President. SMALL MAN, BUT A FIGHTER. Credited With Making Mar Spanish Soldiewa Into 'Cuban Lao Than Any Other Warrior In tha Buih Honaat and Entrgatio. This story begin away back In 1S0X when a squad of Spanish soldiers were observed running rapidly through a vtllnge street In Cuba. Just in their rear, emitting loud outcries and prod ding valiantly at the rear guard with a machete, was a short, pudgy Cuban youth, saddle colored from months in the bush. Later he returned, crest fallen, to make his report to the gen eral commanding the patriot army. "My head Is bowed In shame. Honor general," said he. "1 let two of them get away." And Just for that the general com manding kissed Jose Miguel tin me a on both cheeks and made him a captain on the spot. That was the first public appearance of the gentleman who was recently Inaugurated president of Cu ba. He made other appearance of a similar sort all the way through the ten years' war. Hy dint of strict ap plication to business and a remarkably keen eye between gun sights he won his way to a major generalship at the end. IVwn In Cuba they say that he made more Spanish soldiers Into Cu ban lace than any other man who fought In the bush. Wherever one passes a bit of pockmarked wall and finds au anelent crono who can tell something of the wall's tradition one Is apt to find that General Jose Miguel Gomes and a firing party and a dozen or so of the soldiery of Spain figure in the story. This is regarded as excellent .mili tary tactics In bush fighting. If the Spaniards caught the Cubans and could conveniently pen them up In one of their neat little concentration pens they did so. But If the transportation facilities were bad they Just shot tbem out of hand. And the roads were extremely bad throughout the Pearl of the Antilles at that period. So with the Cubans. In a moment of mirth General Gomes Is said to have once estimated that If Cuba conld have obtained a fair price for the tanned hides of the Spanish soldiers she could have well financed the war and had enough left over to make cockflghtlng profitable. No one should Imagine, however, that Gomes was a bloodthirsty butch er. He merely followed the lines laid down for him and fought for Inde pendenceand because he liked It. In Havana they think that be still likes to fight They are prepared to wager that, whatever lse he may accom plish In bis administration, he will keep that island policed as It never has been under Cuban rule. If neces sary a short, pudgy, saddle colored Cuban gentleman will take to the sad dle himself and hang revolutionists all over the landseape. And his soldiers will refer to him as ei presldente. In some respects he resembles the lamented Castro of Venezuela. His father owned a large cattle ranch, and Jose Miguel owns the same ranch, with others he has annexed In the In tervals of making war. And his idea of making war Is to make war and to keep on making war until the other party gets tired. He had hardly learned to read and write In the Col lege of San Salvador before he left bis home In Snnctl Splrltls, Santa Clara province, to volunteer for the ten years' war. He liked lighting so well that, although he came out with the title referred to. be had hardly looked the old homestead over and ordered the barn painted before he started In on a fresh war. ne kicked this one up all by himself almost. They call It now the "little war," but It was quite a lively little garden party at that while it lasted. Then he went home until the wnr which resulted in American Intervention came. Since then he has hnd comparatively little to do. Of course there was that occasion when he rode Into a village at the head of a body of troops, under President Palma's administration, and announced that If Palma didn't bunt the mourners' bench in a hurry he was going to take the government apart to see what made it tick. And he defied the supreme court and about every one else In sight. I!ut through all bis fighting he had the people with him. Palma hud him imprisoned orne on a charge of conspiracy, but Gomes denied that he had conspired. He was merely planning to upset the govern ment, he said, so of course I'alma or dered him released. What else could he do? In the Intervals of fighting and politics Gomez takes an Intelli gent Interest in the primeval instinct which makes one chicken of the male sex fight another ditto. A mouth or so ago he was arrested at a cockfight in Havana, but he explained that away satisfactorily. He had Just happened In to see the chickens fight, he said. He Isn't to be considered a pro-American. The uprising which ended the Palma regime was largely of his doing, and he blamed the need for revolution npon the United States authorities. But he is honest and energetic, and If the people don't consider him a states man they have a sweeping respect for his ability as a fighter. Like a good many other fighters, he loves his fam ily. When bis sons were about to en ter college he studied their lessons along with them at night. K'-en now he can speak- very little English, but stick a pin In this: He can fight New York Globe.

"I am orc-ii'l.-lng for this week a grand reproe-iiatlon extraordinaire." said the elder Coinelln one day In his admiring little brother. "What r le shall you play?" asked Cadet, awestruck, "I shall play till the roles." was the answer, anil that might almost be tak en as the watchword of Cixiuellu's ca reer. He bad not boasted over his "repre sentation extraordinaire." lie played the leading character lu four roles, one tragic, one bouffe, one serious, one sentimental, and so worked himself rap In the last that he fainted away as he left the stage. Cadet, pale and excited, conducted his brother home, and the father, evi dently feeling that the hand of des tiny was too strong for him, n senti ment somewhat assisted by a general complaint of burned brioches among the bakery's buyers, yielded to these signs of vocatlou and sent his son off to Paris with an Income of l.-oo francs a year.

In full view of mi apprecia tive audience, for his art. He had one of these roles one evening at the Boulogne t 'enter and played It splen didly, getting a ringing round of ap plause as he fellutcnd upon the stage. Then his troubles started. The audience's applause woke up a mosquito, which applied Itself to M. Coqnelln with so much assiduity that the corpse felt It must either s. renin or scratch. Another actor, who played a general In the coris of which the dead M. Coqnelln was n young ensign, was standing near the body ami had to say: "See, then, how sad a thing Is war! But now this youth was liv ing. Now he Is dead motionless for all time! Nothing save a miracle can give him life again." But M. Coqnelln could bold out no longer. The mosquito was still biting busily, and Coqnelln had to sit up nnd slap his leg. "The miracle has hap pened!" cried the general, while the audience laughed until It cried at this too lively corpse. One of the most famous of the Latin quarter clubs In Purls Is lit Sub Rosa.
