The Cubans Their Temperament

! One ofthe objections snrged against
the 'fiilibusterlng desire to annex tile
fIir Island of Cuba to the, States, is
tile extreme dissimil1rity between
he temperament and habits of the
Cubans and oar present population.
Another objection seems to be that
our interference. might put IN end to
state Of society WHICH now affords
its individual members a greater
AMOUNT df happiness Than they could
expect to realise under American
institutions. Tie ahiIexed extract
