let the constant intermeddling of foreign
powers in Cuba, attest from the year 1920
when Great Britain made overtures for its
cession to her, until the present time, when
her fleets are in Cuban waters. Suppose there
was Cuba at the mouth of the Thames, how
long would such impertinent foreign inter
meddling have been tolerated ? Let the past

Nor do we get good neighborhood. The
villainous despostism that so tramples or the
fairest flowers of the Antilles, could hardly
be expected to respect the rights of a neigh
boring republic. 1t wantonly violates these
when excited by its cowarlly fears. These
fears constitute the haunt of its own guilt.
The worm will squirn as it is trod upon,
and when Cuba sees those of her substantial
citizens massacreed in the market-place =
when, with the mockery of trial, they see

Of Cuba is such that its Governor has the

the most savage despotism that disgraces the
earth can order our ships to be fired into, on

the great cause Is the homage OF our CON
fidence; for what Sheridan said Of the
liberty of the press admits of most emphat
ic application to this religion of truth and
liberty.
Give says the great orator, give to min
listers a corrupt House of Commons give
them plant and servile House of Lords; give
them the keys of the treasury and the patron
age of the Crown; and give me the liberty
of the press, and with this mighty engine
will overthrow the fabric Of corruption, and
establish upon its ruins the rights and privi-
leges of the people. In like manner, give the
Catholics of Ireland their emancipation give
them a seat in the Parliament of their coun-
try; give them free and equal participation
in the politics Of the realm give them a
place at the right ear of majesty, and voice
in his councils; and give me the circulation
of the Bible, and with this mighty engine ]
will overthrow the tyranny Of Antichrist, and

the commercial importance of Cuba can hard
~ be overstated. john O. Adams, with the
eyes OF statesman and the heart of patriot
wrote in 1923 that Cuba had "an importance
in the sum of our national interests with
which that of no other foreign territory can
be compared, and little inferior to that aoliicl
biAds tie members Of the Union together" To
uss the language Of Daniel Webster, the sue
cessor to Mr.. Adams as Secretary of State, in
1e43, Cuba for instance, in the hands Of Great
Britain, would render her influence in this
quarter unlimited intrenched at Havana
and San Antonio, (these are Mr.. Webster's
words)-ports as impregnabie as the rock OF
Gibraltar, she will be able 10 close the t,co en-
franocs TO The Galf Of Merico, and eUen to pre-
gsat he free passage of the commerce of The
United States oUer tie Bahama banks and
through the Florida channel.
Such is the transcendant importance OF
Cuba to this country. Let US stats this more
clearly. So directly does she lie in the line Of
our commercial highways, that in possession
of il, foreign power like Great Britain could
blockade the mouth Of the Mississippi, cut of
the Western States of an outlet for their pro.
duce anil could, also, seize our commerce
between our ports on the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts. ta
Self-preservation is one of the strongest i'm.
pulses Of patriotism and the stemest duties Of
Independence. This paramount law authori-
yes this country to watch, with never-ceasing
jealousy, position so vital as Cuba 1t au-
fhorizes us to go further. Il authorizes US to
demand and expect from other powers than
Spain the policy Of n-intervention; and to
demand Of Spain the Offices Of good neighbor.
