ticn which enters INTO the whole matter of the
struggle in Cuba and the financial embarrass-
ments of Spain. That Is the attitude of the
United States and tho civilized world gen.
orally with regard to slavery and the produc-
ton of slave labor. Spain is unwilling or
afraid to abolish slavery in Cuba, because
that might make the island improbable and
give encouragement to the revolution. The
people and government of the United States
have abolished slavery and elevated the negro
to the rights of citizens, and are bound to use
every means possible to carry out the same
policy in this hemisphere. Spain will not
listen to any representations or pleadings Of
our government. What then, should be
done? Evidently the policy is to lay an
embargo upon the slave productions of Cuba,
and especially upon sugar, the most impor-
tant production of the island. Nearly seventy
per cent of the slave sugar production Of
Cuba, to say nothing of tobacco and other
productions, come to the United States;
consequently we are indirectly the sup
porters Of slavery. A very high duty
or prohibition of slave-grown sugar
in our markets would destroy the re-
sources Of Spain and do much to secure the
Independence of Cuba Will our republican
administration and Congress, which have made
the negro free and given him equal rights here,
hesitate to strike this blow at slavery in Cuba
There would be no cause of war in that; nor
would there be In recognizing the Cubans as
belligerents. A great principle is involved
both with regard to slavery and the right Of an
American people to self-government This
we regard as the most important foreign ques-
ton which General Grant and our republican
Congress will have to deal with, and the Ameri-
can people will not be satisfied unless it be dis
posed of in accordance with Justice, humanity
and public sentiment. Slavery in Cuba must
be destroyed, as elsewhere in the world,
and the principle Of republican self-govern-
ment ought to be sustained in this hemisphere.
In this matter the administration and Congress
will be held responsible.
