J. The Dalles Daily Chronicle. The only Republican Daily Newspaper on Wasco County. EASTERN OFFICE 230 to 234 Temple Court, N. Y. City. E. KATZ, Agent. FRIDAY CCTOBER 29, 1897 AS A CUBAN SEES IT. A- Cuban who puts his opinions calmly and clearly prints in an East ern paper a view of the situation as it appears to an educated native of the island. He gives the reasons why nothing short of independence will satisfy those who have risen in repeated revolts against the oppres sion of Spain. In the first place, as a Cuban, he has never discovered any material distinction between the Spanish Lib eral and the Conservative parties. As far as the colonies are concerned, a change in cabinets is merely a change of names. The Liberals have neither the will nor the power to grant to Cuba autonomy in the An glo Saxon sense. It matters not who is premier, whether Canovas, Sa-gast-i. Azearraga or Silvela, their feeliugs and actions are substantially the same in relation to matters out side of the boundaries of Spain it self. "With the death of Canovas his party has apparently gone, into the background, though they hold a leg islative majority. They are willing to grant a certain leadership to a man of opposite politics, and this can only mean an assurance that he will not give up more than the Con servatives are willing to grant. The fact is referred to by this Cuban writer that when, years ago, the leaders of the Cuban Autonomist party presented to Senor Sagasta their plan of limited self-government for Cuba, he replied to their request for support: "Gentlemen, the Span ish statesman who would make such a change is not yet born, nor is his mother born." When the subject was submitted to Canovas, his answer was: "Impossible. Nothing can prevail against the national reality." That meant that the absolute monop oly of the Cuban markets was neces sary to Spain. To disturb this would be to shake the Spanish fabric, and no party had ever genuinely con sented io it. The offer of reforms heretofore was but deceptive. Cuba has been governed from Madrid in the same manner by all parties. Real concessions would have raised a storm. Ouly a few days ago the cable brought the announcement that Sa gasta is disposed to allow the Cubans autonomy "in so far as it shall not be incompatible with the inflexible de fense of the sovereignty of Spain in the West Indies." Another phrase used in the dispatch is "administra tive autonomy."- The Cuban who remembers what Spanish parties are, what deceit has lurked in Spanish terms, and what treachery has fol lowed past promises of reforms is skeptical now about propositions to be submitted by Sagasta. Spain in tends to be supreme m its colony, and to give it no real permission to govern itself under a mild and chief ly nominal ownership. Therefore, this Cuban says, his countrymen will fight on until the'y achieve independence. They dare not stop short of that. The war of extermination may go on, but it costs more than an equal number of Spanish lives. Of late the insurgents have taken the offensive, and cap tured at least one stronghold. . Spain is losing ground in Cuba. Campos has failed as a soldier, and Weyler has failed as a monster. Blanco faces a more difficult situation than they did. The purpose of the Cu bans is to fight it out. Spain will have a difficult task if she tries to convince Europe that the United States has been lax in the performance of its duties as a neu Ual government in the Cuban con flict. The great number of projected expeditions which have been headed off by our authanties shows that ceaseless vigilance has been exercised on the mainland as well as on the ocean. For over two years and a half the United States has been doing police duty for Spain which Spain would have been unable to do for herself. The task has been very un pleasant to all concerned in it on our side, but it has been performed with vigor and intelligence nevertheless. iioo Betrird titO.

A few weeks ago the editor was taken with a very severe cold that caused him to be in a most miserable condition. It was undoubtedly a bad case of la grippe and recognizing it as dangerous he took immediate steps to bring about a speedy cure. From the advertisement of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy and the many good recommendations included therein, we concluded to make a first trial of the medicine. To say that it was satisfac tory in its results, is putting it very mildly, indeed. It acted like magic and the result was a speedy and permanent cure.
