We can do this, and at the same moment per-
form great moral obligation In behalf OF the
Cubans who are suffering from Spanish DON'T
nation. As regards Englrnd, our little recl,
prooity understanding with Prince ia Ward
Island is destined to open the true road TO the
settlement of the Alabama claims.
Spain, struggling for liberalism, oertSlniy
cannot object 20 the liberal movement OF Ouoa
IL she be consistent with her own newly
adopted code Of progress. Therefore .ne pest
thing for the pspish Government TO do is to
telegraph TO General Duloe TO withdraw from
Cuba and save the lives Of the twelve or
fifteen thousand Spanish troops who are now
dying of like sheep under the combined in.
fuences Of cholera, yellow fever, and patriot
bayonets. Quick action should be taken on
this subject by both Spain and the United
States. Cuba is too closely al lied with us in
a common progress for us to allow Spain to
hold possession of the island simply for the
purpose of desolating it.
