A Great Joke, Surely.

, he occupied a box at the National Theatre to hearFritzi Scheff score a great success in Barbette. One line ran as follows:
" 'What, a diplomat steal? A diplomat never steals. He simply annexes.'
" The entire -audience turned towards the oresident's box and ioined in a shout of lautrhter. The resident laughed as
heartily as anyone and waved his hand in glee at Senator Hanua," who was in another box. It was some minutes before the
singers could go on with the opera." Walter Wellman't Washington Dtipatch to the Chicago Jtecord-Uerald, Not&mber 11,

above alluded to is of tho most im

and is proof of tho good faith with
which Cuba is treating us. Cuba has

proval secures to the United States
economic advantages as great as those
given to Cuba, Not an American in
terest is sacrificed by the "treaty, a
large Cuban market is assured to our
producers. It Is a market which lies
at our doors, which is large, capable of
great expansion, "and which is partic
ularly important to the development
of our export trade. It would be, In
deed, shortsighted for us to refuse to
take advantage of such opportunity
and to force Cuba into making ar
rangements with other countries to
our disadvantage.
"This reciprocity treaty stands by
itself. It is demanded on considera
tion of broad national policy as well
as by bur economic interest It will
do harm to no industry. It will ben
efit many industries. It is in the in
terest of our people as a whole, Uoth
because of its importance from the
broad standpoint of international pol
icy and,, because economically it in
timately concerns us to develop and
secure the rich Cuban market for our
farmers, artisans, mercnants and
manufacturers. Finally, It 1b desira

our nation towards her young sister
lepublic to the south, whose welfare
must ever be closely bound with ours.
We gave her liberty. We are knit to
her by the memories of the blood and
the courage of our soldiers who fought
for her in war; by the memories of
the wisdom and integrity of our ad
ministrators who saved her in peace
and who started her so well on the
difficult path of self-government. "We
must help her onward and upward;
and in helping her we shall help our
selves.
"The foregoing considerations caused
the negotiation of a treaty with Cuba
and its ratification by tho senate.
They now, with equal force, support
the legislation by ;tbe congress which
by the terms of the treaty, is neces
sary to render it operative. A failure
to enact such legislation would come
perilously near a repudiation of the
pledged faith of the nation.
"I transmit herewith the treaty as
amended by the senate and ratified by
tho Cuban government.
