" SENTIMEXT " ABOUT CUBA,
t is renortcd thai a Cuban delegation will
guend the winter in Washington seeking
during the Congress session to promote recipro
cal made relations lietween that island and the
United States; though some of its members are
leallv looking lor annexation, on the ground
that th.' A no ri-:iii iieoiiie, acting through senti-
ment, would rather take Cuba into the Union
than t'i give it free trade while it remains out
side. There cau be no objection to Cuba's seeking
reciprocity with this country, and it may well be
that its desire will to some extent be gratified.
There will scarcely be anything like absolute
free trade established, but there will doubtless
be a liberal opening of American markets to

"The question which confronts us now is
whether we shall increase our expenditures or
decrease revenue bv reducing taxation. The
large balance in the Treasury and constantly
increasing surplus arc, of course, an invitation
to large, unusual, and extravagant appropria
tions. t seems to me that the wise and busi

The auditing i partment has made a
statement of the late President's ac
count, charging bin with the war
rants issued to him on account of salary
since he went Into office, ami crediting
him with the amount due. A balance
of $2.HS1 wan found In his favor and a
warrant drawn in favor of his adminis
trator for the amount. This closes the
financial affairs between t lie late Presi
dent and the government, but the
country owes him a debt of gratitude
which can never Imj repaid.
The German wheat crop is 1,886,000
tons short and the country must Im
port 3,000,000 Urns in order to supply
the home demand. Even with a full
crop the country must import grain,
and the slightest decrease from the av
erage means more imports. With these
figures in view the American farmers
can easily see they have nothing to
fear from hostile legislation in that
country.
