CUBAN ELECTION VIEWED
WITH APPREHENSION.
Uneasiness Felt Among Officials of
the War Department Effort 3Lule
to Keep News of Danger Quiet
Reason for Uneasiness Can Not Be
Assigned.
Washington, July SI. On the eve
of the Cuban provincial and munici
pal elections, a feeling of uneasiness
pervades the war department, al
though every effort has been made to
conceal it. It is known that Secretary
of War Wright has had several con
ferences with his predecessor, Judge
Taft, on the possibilities of an insur
rection In Cuba.
Reports from Havana stale that
while at present there is no indica
tion of a revolution, everyone consid
ers there will be trouble after the
elections, possibly after the munici
pal elections tomorrow ,but more like
ly after the presidential elections. The
Mlguellstas have openly said, although
not recently, that if Zavas is elected
they will rebel. A conservative vic
tory through the splitting of the lib
eral vote will certainly cause the lib
erals to fight.
Tomorrow's battle of ballots In
Cuba will combine provincial and mu
nicipal elections, each province elect
ing a governor and eight council
men and the munlclpalllties electing
an alcalde and a proportionate num
ber of councllmen. The governors
will hold office until February 24,
1913, and the mayors until August
1, 1912.

Tsar tns Mw rm mm ff ra
Governor Magoon has decided not
to sign the decree authorizing the con
struction of water works at Clen
fuegos until next week. This has
averted a critical condition in that
city, where the people are bitterly
divided on the water works question.
This action ,lt is thought, will pre
vent a clash between the rival fac
tions, respectively, and supporting
thp Rellly contract.
According to present plans, the Cu
ban army of occupation Is to be with
drawn on February 1 next .but many
Washington officials acquainted with
the situation believe that conditions
at that time will be such as to render
withdrawal impracticable.
Whether the spirit of unrest Is due
to the preparation of certain Cubans
who hope to control by a show of
force once the United States Is out
of the" Island ,or whether foreign In
terests are encouraging plots so as
to compel the continuance of Amer
ican occupancy, is not definitely made
clear. The foreign Interests ,lt is
well known .dread the restoration of
complete home rule In Cuba. They
foresee excessive taxation and bur
densome regulations placed upon their
enterprises.
The ultimate hope and aim of these
foreign and American business Inter
ests Is to have this government either
take over the island or establish a
protectorate, which will give the Cu
bans a certain amount of self-government,
but will promptly halt any at
tempt at maladministration of af
fairs. It Is an open secret that army
oflcers returning from Cuba are
bringing back disquieting tales.
A high official In the department
was asked If preparations were being
pushed for the withdrawal of the
troop sfrom Cuba on the date set.
He declined to express and opinion,
but added that the troops might not
be embarked If there was any need
for them.
None of the officials would ac
knowledge, nor would they deny that
they had received advices that for
eigners In Cuba were subscribing to
a fund for the purpose of financing
a revolution. The revolution, accord
ing to these advices, would be timed
for about the first of the year. In
that case the American troops, per
force, would be compelled to remain
In the Island. Pressure would then
be brought to bear on Washington to
have this government take some defi
nite action toward Insuring the future
peace of the republic.
The American army is well scat
tered over the island, and while it
consists of ony 5,000 truops, it is dis
tributed in such a way that a fair
sized body of trained regulars could
mobilized at any point in the island
in a few hours. Two battalions of
the Twenty-seventh Infantry are sta
tioned at Camp Columbia, near Ha
vana, as a reserve force, which can
be sent to any part of the island
where trouble Is likely to occur.
Contrary to what has been expect
ed, It seems now that the provincial
and municipal elections will not Indi
cate which of the three parties, the
Zalista, Miguelista or the conserva
tive, will be the strongest In the next
general presidential elections.
In each town, according to local
interests, the parties have combined
for the election of a mayor, the Ml
guellstas and Zallstas Joining some
times against the conservatives or
vice versa. It will be difficult to as
certain how many votes properly be
longing to the party, each party will
obtain.

Chicago, July 31. the national
headquarters of the prohibition and
socialist parties, preparations are go
ing forward for strenuous cam
paigns. Eugene V. Debs, the social
istic perpetual candidate, will leave In
about a month on a special train for
an extensive tour of the country and
will speak in nearly all the Important
Industrial centers of the north, east
and central west
Eugene W. Chafln, the prohibition
standard bearer, declares that before
election he will have toured every
state of the Union.
The annual catalogue of the Ore
gon Agricultural College has just been
issued and It shows a splendid growth
in that Institution.
The total registration of students in
all courses during the past year was
1158. Of this number 26 were from
Umatilla county and there were stu
dents in attendance from every one of
the 33 counties of the state. Sixteen
students attended from California and
3" were enrolled from the state of
Washington. The registration also
shows 21 other states of the Union
represented, while there were three
students from Alaska, one from Brit
ish Columbia and four from India.
Benton county had but 198 students
during the past year.
In view of the questions that have
been raised regarding the state edu
cational Institutions some facts con
cerning O. A. C.'s source of revenue
will be Interesting. The following
bearing upon the same Is from the
catalogue Just Issued and shows that
most of the money for the support of
the college comes from the federal
government:
Foundation nml Endowment.
In pursuance of an act of congress
approved by President Lincoln. July
2, 1S62, a grant of land was made to
each state In the Union In the amount
of 30,000 acres, or Its equivalent, for
each senator and representative In
congress to which the state was entitl
ed by the apportionment of the cen
sus of 1860. The proceeds under this
act were to constitute a perpetual
fund, the principal of which was to
remain forever undiminished; but the
interest arising from said fund was
to be inviolably applied by each state
which should avail Itself of the bene
fits of the act, to the support and
maintenance of a "College where the
leading objects shall be, without ex
cluding other scientific and classical
studies, and Including military tactics,
to teach such branches of learning as
are related to agriculture and the
mechanic arts. In such manner as the
legislatures of the states may respec
tively prescribe, In order to promote
the liberal pursuits and professions In
life." Ninety thousand acres of land
were apportioned to Oregon, and by
an act approved October 9. 1862, the
legislative assembly of Oregon accept
ed the provisions of the congressional
law.
The Lund Grant Fund.
The subsequent sale of this land
has netted the college approximately
$200,000. This at present Is Invested
In securities bearing 6 per cent Inter
est. The act of congress of 1862 ex
plicitly states that no part of the funds
so appropriated or the Interest aris
ing therefrom shall be used for the
purchase, erection or maintenance of
any building or buildings.
The Hatch Fund.
Under an act of congress, approved
March 2, 1887, the college receives
115,000 a year for the maintenance
of an agricultural experiment station,
"to aid In acquiring and diffusing
among the people useful and practi
cal Information on subjects connect
ed with agriculture."
Tlio Morrill Fund.
On August 30, 1890, an act was
passed by congress "to apply a por
tion of the proceeds of the public
lands to the more complete endow
ment and support of the colleges for
the benefit of agriculture and the
mechanic arts established under the
provisions of the act of 1862." This
act provided that In 1890 $15,000
should be paid to each of the land
grant colleges, and that the amount so
appropriated should be Increased by
the sum of $1000 annually for 10
years, and that thereafter the amount
annually appropriated should con
tinue be be $26,000. Under an act of
congress approved March 4, 1907,
known as the Nelson amendment, this
fund Is Increased by the sum of $5000
for the first fiscal year ending June
30, 1908, and by an additional $5000
for each succeeding year until the to
toal annual amount Is $50,000.
Tim AdonM Fund.
An act of congress approved March
20, 1906, appropriated an Initial $5000
for that year, and $2000 additional for
each year thereafter until the annual
amount shall reach $15,000. This
fund Is "to be applied only to paying
the necessary expenses of conducting
original researches or experiments
bearing directly on the agricultural
Industry" of the state, and therefore
supplements the Hatch fund In the
maintenance of the experiment sta
tion. In addition to the Income from the
national government, the college Is
dependent upon the state legislature
for such appropriations as are re
quired for the maintenance and de
velopment of the institution, In ac
cordance with the provisions of the
acts of congress, and In response to
the Industrial and educational de
mands of the state.
