Only one opinion expressed by the members

but TO think that it will be OF any practi-
cal benefit TO America is too foolish
supposition 10 DO worthy of considera-
tion. Spain never voluntarily nude the
concessions TO the United States that
gave ms access 10 the Cuban markets.
She preferred 10 keep them fer herself,
and free sugar was Mr.. Blaine's induce
ment to open the markets so long coyet-
eel by us and which 10y right belonged
to us. America would not give a free
market for Cuban sugar while Spain
kept the markets OF Cuba closed against
American goods aud Spain yielded.
With sugar taxed again it is pure
childishness TO suppose that Spain Will
grant any concessions to Americans and
the intimation that she will do so is
only blind thrown out by administra-
tion tools at Madrid.

WHAT SPAIN WILL DO.

AS THE News announced some time
since as inevitable, Spain has cancelled
the reciprocity treaty negotiated by Mr..
Foster, under the direction Of Mr..
Blaine, ard hereafter the maximum
tariff rates will be applied to all imports
from the United States received in Cuba
and Porto Rico.
This means the loss of those val
liable markets to Americans. Under the
Blaine reciprocity treaty, our trade with
the Spanish West Indies jumped to en-
ormous proportions, and American four,
meat, fish, lard. vegetables, hardware,
railway cars, cotton goods and merchan-
disc OF every kind found ready market
there, and for the first time, thanks to
this policy, we were able to sell as well
as buy goods there. Paying immense
sums yearly 10 Cuba and Porto Rico,
hundreds of millions of dollars in the
aggregate, we bad never sold dollars
worth of -four or other products save ice
and lumber until Blaine changed all
this and found new and valuable mar
ket right ut hand
Clevelandism kills the trade that was
proving of so much advantage to us.
The British Consul-General in Havana
reported to his Government that under
reciprocity the Americans had secured
the market, and itwas hopeless for Eng
land to compete with them. All these
advantages have now been flung away,
says the New York Tribune. BY re-
stricting trade and taxing sugar at the ex-
pense OF American consumers. the United
States has set Spain an example which
is quickly followed. Imported food is to
be taxed in Cuba al the expense of con-
suiners there, and foreign trade is to be
paralyzed by system of unreciprocal
protection, useful possibly TO Spanish
millers aud merchants, but OF no benefit
whatever 10 the islands.
The results Of sugar legislation may be
briefly summed up as follows: Ameri-
can consumers will pay about $40, ,000, 900
more Tor their sugar, about one.half of
which will 20 to The Trust monopolists;
the export trade with the islands will
be cut down one-half; the islands will
be reinanded TO the ruinous economic
conditions and custom house rapacity
prevailing before 1891; aud Spanish mis-
rule will be facilitated, aud the familiar
process of squeezing the orange dry re-
suned. Taken all around, It is about as
bad piece OF work as has been done by
a civilized country Tor many year, aud
isutterly indefensible from every point
of view.

Mr.. CLEVELAND was not dealing with

peculiar methods, suggest that we
