dence of European intermeddling,
proclaimed by our chief magistrate,
our secretaries of state, our diploma

less of consequences whenever occa-

ofour national code. Let Cuba ap-

Cuba strike for independence to-mor-

ish bayonets help her TO do it by vir-
tue of this secret treaty with her.
This would make no difference, for
