The past week a movement nas be gun In our country for the recognition of the Cuba Insurgents us belligerents. Nov. 27 two meetings were nciti in New York, addressed by prominent Americans. The speakers urged Inter vention by our government but op posed annexation by force. They fa vored aiding the Cubans tosecure free dom from Spanish eontrol.and then If they wished to become a part ot the American Republic tov treat them as equals. One speaker went so far:lf the Cubans wanted to purchase their free dmi of Spain, the United States bhould g'uaninleoUic o itufs Uiey will need u? Jssub 10 Oorrow the money. The war debt is said to be $500,000,000 and is costing $12,000,0J0 a month to carry on the war. This would have to be made good to Spain If Cuba went free But it will cost Spain a great deal more to conquer Cuba and hold the Islands by armed farce. The suc cess of Spain means very heavy taxes for generations to come and almost complete extinction' of commercial and political freedom. ' November 10 Manuel Qoronado, edi tor of a patriotic paper at Havana, reached New York with important news, to the cu"ect that Spain would soon be forced to withdraw her troops from lack of funds. He says the whole country, Spanish and Cubans, want peace and independence. It is not likely that Spain will abandon the Cubm war from lack of funds, as the bank of Spain has just received $150, 000,000 on a nevV war loan. The Span ish In Cuba have made silver standard money and all duties and taxes are collected In sliver. The freedom of Cuba can only come about by purchase or conquest of their liberty. The longer they light the more Impossible will become the hope or being able to buy their freedom. The Island is only as large as the state of Indiana, and has about 1,000, 003 papulation. They could never borrow the money to pay the claim Spain will make or that would be awarded to Spain by arbitration, if an armistice could be obtained for that purpose, unless some stronger nation would guarantee them, as has been suggested our country shall do. Cuba would be cheap at fifty times the price we paid for Alaska. That would be $350,000,000. The Insurgents have started a sec ond time to Invade the territory hold by the royal Spanish forces. Their object Is to unite the armies of Maceo and Gomez, In all 55,000 men, and force "Weyler to evacuate Havana. It is estimated that In case of war be tween Spain and our country the for tified capital would fall In two months. The Insurgents expect to drive tho Spanish out of there in eight months. Nov. 25 Win Brown, an Englishman who has 'been imprisoned In Cuba, arrived In Now York and declares Cuba Is -now lost to Spain and can neyer bo regained. President Cleveland's message to congress Deo.7inay" mark a change of policy toward Cuba qn tho part ofour country. It will ho looked for with great Interest. Whether tho presi dent advocates Intervention or not all must admit that our country could exercise a decisive influence on the result in Cuba. Americans caugnt in Cuba after recognition of tho insur gents as bellgorents would have to be treated as prisoners of war, and It Is believed Cuba would gain lie reform within three months after such a declaration. Spain would sell Cuba before she would risk a war with a llrst class power. At Chicago November 27, an offer was made to ralso 20,000 inen In 24 hours to go to tho relief of Cuba. There la llttlo doubt that a Ihalf-mil-llon volunteers could bo raised In the United States In 30 days to free Cuba. November 25, General Maceo sends word to friends in tho United States: "we have Avithstool tho enemy in many encounters and aro prepared for any move ho may make, Wo havo rendered him much .injury and will bo able to withstand any attack ho may make for somo time to come Tho causo of liberty will not suffer in Plnar Del Rio." Senator Lindsay of Kentucky says congress will act to bring the Cuban war to an end, if Mr. Cleveland does not. Burning tho American flag at Valencia and stoning the American consulate atBarcelona acts for which uo roparatiou has been had. He saya Tor 70 years our country has stood by Spain In her right to hold that island, but tho time has come to Insist Spain Khali not annihilate tho Cubans In order to maintain her supremacy over tho ii. There aro 10,000 Spanish soldiers in Havana sick with yellow foyer, fltuall pox and other diseases. " i.
