Cuba and jamaica.

The Kingston (JamaicaI Despatch, of the 3oth ut
has the following remarks, contrasting Cuba with ia
maica
We have been furnished with the following addi-
tona facts in relation 10 the island of Cuba. and the
hourishing condition of the slave trade. 1t will be
seen that while our produce has been sensby declin
ing year after year, the Shareholder by his great adj
vantages has been making the most enormous crops.
These facts especially submitted for the considera.
ton of the Anti Slavery Society and the people OF
England and when they contrast the state OF Cuba
planting with that of the impoverished colonial agr
culturiss, and the rising and rich plantations of Cuba
with the statistics of thrown up and dsmantled es-
taes in Jamaica, they will see the justice OF the mother
country in its naked deformty, and unite in their
deavors to see Justice melted TO The subjoined
facts we vouch for.
In the district of Cienfuegos. in the Island of Cuba,
the sugar crop of 1916 r. O73 TONS with 697 900
gallons of moasses
The crop of 1852 has been 81 243 tons. with $780,,
900 gallons of molasses.
Will it be said that there was 70 increase 10 the
slave population of the district during the interven-
ing seven years If there was, whence was it de-
rived, we we'll assured it not from natural
increase The actual not realized profits of es-
tate in Cienfuego owned by an American (absentee)
gentleman, last year (crop of 1922 upwards of
ST 900, about $4,000 sterling, drawn from the la,
Dor of 42O people, yonng and old. Will any man
show us how to make free labor as productive!
