DR.. J G.. Hsva, distinguished ply clan
and for many years resident OF this CITY,
has issued On able paper concerning the
Cuban question, which cannot iaii 10 ~
tract the attention OF those who take IN
terest in the welfare of the neighboring
island. DR.. Hava denies that the revolu-
ton for the separation OF Cuba from the

some OF the political views OF DR. Hava
are corroborated by the Havana CORES.
popdenr OF the New York Novedades,
psper published In the interest OF Spain.
The writer, who boldly condemns fiiibuster-
ing exps di,iops says that many indomita'
bile Cntalosisns and Cuban autonomists ore
determined not to see perpetuated the
plumbers aud crimes which have cost Spain
and Cuba 30 dearly. Indeed, there Is no
Injustice. DO disqualification moral, polit-
icsl or religious, civil or military, that IL
not heaped upon a large majority OF the
people. The latter will not timely lie
down In its own land to starve.
The Two Republics OF Mexico. q journal
always well acquainted with Spanish
American affairs, IN a recent article on the
Cuban revolt, also confirms DR.. Hsva's At
sertions. It saws thst the discomfort OF the
native population has not abatsd, while the
former "loy alists" have become greatly dis
satisfied with Spanish rule. The exactions
OF the home government and tia grave
abuses In the administration have alienated
the good will OF many Spnoisrds, who
now ind themselves involved in the gen
ersl ruin which threatens the island.
Owing TO the depressed state OF tho sugar
industry the planters are no longer in po-
sition to aid the Spani b authorities II they
were so disposed, and they have doubtless
come TO the conclusion that home rule
could not be worse than that which Spain
row exercises.
Tue Two Republics believes that both the
United rtates and Mexico will profit by the
disturbances in Cube. Should Spain dis
play obstinacy. like that which caused her
tho loss OF the immense territories OF South
ard Central America, Mexico and Other
possessions, u long aad arduous struggle
with Cuban insurgents may pe expected.
The planters and merchants VIII regard
with horror a repetition Of the former war
scenes and they Will be likely :, leave 10
arge numbers for the United States and
Mexico.
There "a no doubt that the immigrants
will receive cordial welcome in this conn
try. The CubAus at New York, New Or
leans, Key West, Vera Cruz and other
places have effected q great change IN The
cigar industry, aud have benefited the
United States at the expense OF The mo.
noDolv which their own country. formerly
OF joyed. The piuntsrs who migrate Will
also prove to be- useful citizens. Their
knowledge of the cultivation OF sugar cane
and tobacco will be of greht service, whilst
their experience netits them to fully de.
velop the sugar growing regions OF the
south.
We think there Is no doubt that the revo-
luton will 60 on without the assistance OF
msrauders and filibu,sers.
The people cfCubn. I'm war Of ten years,
have shown that thev do not abhor the uee
OF arms in the vindicsiion of their rights
Now II seems that arms will alone suffice
Political ameiioretions require that force
should be used against force. AS modem
