[ I There is no more probability that tin independence of Cuba will be recognized by the United States during President Cleveland's administration than there is f Grover Cleveland becoming president >f the Cuban republic, and, unless Mc ' Kinley Is misrepresented by Republi ? cvns who are supposed to enjoy his con fidence, present policy will be continued by him until there is some decided . j change in Cuba. The resolution for the • independence of Cuba which has been j reported to the senate will, of course, be. made the basis of a lot of speeches when congress reassembles, but more of them will be devoted to the claim of the ad ministration, that the president alone has the power to recognize the independ ence of a nation, than to Cuba or any thing connected with the unfortunate island. Whether a vote on the resolu tion itself will be had before the expira tion of this congress is a matter of doubt, but not of much importance, as it has already been given out by the Re { publican leaders of the house that the resolution will not be allowed to come before that body at all. The constitu tional question Involved in the claim of the administration is an important one, and one upon which men who are re garded as able lawyers differ regardless of politics, and the debate upon it will be in no sense partisan. There is practi cally uo precedent, though several have been cited as having a bearing upon the •laim. And after all, nothing short of a decision of the United States supreme court will be accepted as settling it. ; Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has never set up for a wit. but if ho gets off i few more flashes like his answer to j Senator Vest's inquiry as to the mean ing of that clause of the president's ines i dealing with the Pacific Railroads '•he title will be forced upon hiin. Mr. Morgan was urging action to protect the teople of the Pacific coast from those railroads, or. rather from the men who •ontrol them, when Mr. Vest made hi* request. Turning like a flash, the Ala ' 'ama senator said with a deprecatory : gesture: "Now in all Egypt there was j only one man, and ho was divinely ln ' spired, who could interpret the dreams j >f Pharaoh. The senator ought not to I ask me to Interpret the president's mes sage. If any man is capable of inter preting the message, it is the senator 'rom Missouri." Among the members of the house who lid not go home to spend their Christ mas are a number of Republicans who were re-elected to the next house, and .vho prefer to stand their office-seeking constituents off with letters which do ; not commit them, Instead of meeting •hem face to face and being compelled to commit themselves. The little post nastorships are especially troublesome to the representatives-elect on account >f the numerous applicants for them, •'or instance, one representative from ! New Jersey has received among other ! applications for a single postoffice in his I llstrict, one froin each of three men vho were delegates to the convention hat nominated him and who took ac ' tive parts in his campaign. Representative Rarham. of California, thinks the Pacific Railroad funding bill, vhich is to be considered by the house 'or the four days beginning January 7, •an be defeated. He said: "If we can get enough time to show the whole thing up, I am satisfied that many votes will he changed. The passage of the present j fill is a present of $100,000,000 to C. F. Huntington and his associates. If it becomes known that the United States : s going to treat these debtors like it Joes all others there will be plenty of buyers at the full value of the property." It Is as true today as It was when written by Macaulay that, "Where'er ye lied the honey, the buzzing files will Towd." There Is going to be honey shed by the Republican tariff bill, and the flies, in the shape of those who are anticipating benefits through protection, ire already crowding Washington hotels, | preparatory to telling the Republican members of the house ways and means ; committee, at the hearings which arc to begin next week, just how much Interest they want on their campaign contribu i tions. The government Isn't expecting war with Spain, but if war comes it is going ' to he as well prepared as possiblo for It. A secret meeting of high naval officers was held in Washington a few days ago i for the purpose of preparing a complete programme, offensive and defensive, that might be carried on by our present navy If there should be war at short notice, and such a programme was pre pared and is now in the hands of Secre tary Herbert.
