Cuban Matters.

A recent letter from the Havana
correspondent of the New York
Times has the following in regard to
the situation In Cuba:
1.-THE general aspect of the war
presents no indications Of speedy
conclusion. The insurgents main.
tain themselves well, and the troops
are comparatively losing ground
notwithstanding the assertions Of the
Havana journals, which gre cOntin.
ually Publishing accounts Of battles
gained, and announce the dispersion
Of every band Of ragamuffins, wheth-
er they act on their own hook or
pretend to act under the orders OF
the Spanish or insurgent leaders.
Quesada holds his own, and now
that he has plenty Of first-class
armament and a superfiuity of am
munition, men being abundant, ac-
cording to the acknowledgement OF
the insurgents themselves, he ought
To be able to defeat the troops in a
few weeks at the utmost. If he does
not accomplished this, we must then
come to the conclusion that his tai
ents, and the number and especially
the valor Of his troops, have been
greatly Overrated."
The Hon. f. @. Squler, no mean
authority on subjects relating to
South America and the. tropical
islands, addresses an open letter to
Pres't Grant, giving the following
reasons why our Government should
recognize the Cubans as beliigerents:
1. Because they constitute the en-.
tire native population, white and
black. Of the island.
Q. Because they have maintained
successfully their possession, for
more than eight months, of far more
than one half Of the island.
8. Because they have organized q
regular government, and conduct
in9 hOetilities in accordance with the
rules OF civilized war.
4. Because the alleged Spanish
rule, 90 far ae itextends In the Island,
3 not with the consent Of the GOV:
erned, Il Anarchieal, under no legal
or moral restraint, and sustained
only BY N unc0ntr0llable mob,
which disTegards equally the autbos.

Republican State Ticket.

4. r. spsrry, Editor.

"A long communication on thissub-
ject appears ON the fourth page Of
this paper, from an esteemed citizen
of the County. We can hardly en-
dorse in full all its implied senti.
ments, because we cannot think that
the memory of the dead is either
honored Or dishonored by decorating
their graves, nor that those who
demonstrate d their feelings by the
decoration necessarily have more
respect or love for the soldiers mem.
Ories than thoseof less demonstrative
acts and natures.
The point is, that this Decoration
Day Is not In itself the honor to the
dead, but is only q mere manner Of
showing that honor. 1t seems to Us
that this decoration, as . national
anniversary, cannot become perpetu-
al, because It is not suited to the
genius of the American people. We
are not naturally demonstrative; and
since the war we are less SO than
ever. In Italy, or France, such an
anniversary would at once touch the
popular heart; but things which to
those light and sentimental peoples
are serious, seem to us too much like
child's play. ..,%5.-s,
Why, nowadays we have hard
work to get up Fourth.of.July
celebration. The fact Is, that the
great War of the Rebellion was 30
terrible, dead earnest for us that since
then all display has lost part Of It's
effect. After years Of peace, this
state Of feeling will have returned to
81 mething like what there was before
the Rebellion; and then such anni-
versaries and ceremonies as that OF
strewing flowers upon the graves OF
the dead may perhaps be more gen.
orally observed. .
And even now, II theGrand Army
of the Republic had recommended
that this. niversary Of Decoration
should be observed AZ part Of all
celebrations of the Fourth Of July,
we can hardly doubt that the 0bserv-
ance would have at once become
universal.
But as to a Soldiers Monument,
the same remarks do not all apply.
And II any word or act Of ours, or
any reasonable portion Of our small
means, could contribute to the erec.
ton OF such q Monument on the
Public Square here, we would speak
and work and give most gladly.

Pursuant to previously published
Call, Soldiers of 1872, residents Of
Iowa, to the number of'lO, met at
Des Moines last week. The Register
gives q full report of the meeting.
Among the Soldiers reported present
we recognize none from this County.
The following Preamble and Resolu-
tions were adopted:
Whereas, Nearly all the few re-
naming soldiers Of the war of 1872
are by .age physically disabled from
earning q livelihood BY labor, and BY
their services to their country IN q
trying hour Of its history fairly
earned . title to It's benefactions:
therefore, go :
Resoived, That the Senators and
Representatives in Congress from
Iowa be respectfully requested to
use their influence to secure the
passage of q law providing for such
pensions to all the surviving soldiers
of the war Of 1912 as shall place them
above want during the brief remain
der Of their lives.
Res0iUed, That copies Of these Res
OlutiOne he forwarded to our Senator'S
and Representatives in Congress, and
that the Journals of central Iowa be
requested to publish them, that all
persons friendly to this. movement
may be informed of our. action and
may aid In our endeavOrs.

To the Senator's and Representatires Of
the United States IN Cbngress As'
senabLed: .--
We the undersigned citizens of
Central Iowa, Soldiers Of the war of
1912, respectfully represent to your
honorable body that we have reached
4 period in life when we are incapac-
itated for active labor, as means OF
subsistence, and believing that our
services and those of our comrades in
arms to the country, when the Gov
ernment was. weak, were such as to
entitle us to its bounty, now that 1t
is strong, we ask for the passage Of a
law which shall secure uniform rate
Of pension to all the veterans Of the
war of 1912,
