THE LONDONDERRY SITTER.


The sweeping Republican victories
which have just been recorded have a
direct bearing on the Cuban revolu-
ton. The Republican party is the
traditional champion of human liberty
in the Western Hemisphere. Repub-
lican newspapers almost without excep-
ton have urged the recognition of Gu
ban belligerency by the United States
Government as an act of justice. Re-
publican orators in many States have
denounced the Administrations shame
full alliance with Spanish despotism as
a gross betrayal of American princi-
pies and an insolent defiance of the
popular will. Congress will shortly
assemble, and it will come together
with the mandate of the American
people for freedom in Cuba ringing in
its ears.
1t may prove that the ballots cast
on Tuesday will do more for the
emancipation of Cuba than the blood
of her own sons has been able to &C
complish. Backed by the nations ex-
plicit commands, a Republican House
of Representatives will not be likely
to hesitate in giving voice to American
sympathy for the cause of selfgovern-
ment. Unless Spain brushes the in
subsection within a month she will be
confronted with the overpowering NOR
al influence of the United States, ex-
pressed in a formal resolution OF the
elected spokesman of this nation. The
outlook for Mr.. Cleveland's gold laced
friends in Madrid and Havana is ex-
ceedingly gloomy. Y. Advertis-
er.

Elk, Senator Edmunds, in recent
interview in Philadelphia, is reported
as saying this in reference to the
Monroe doctrine. "That doctrine
declared" he said, "that we would
not look with uncoucern (Which, in
my Vermont dialect, means we would
not tolerate) on the interference of
any foreign power with respect to the
autonomy or existence of American
republics. That was the Munroe
doctrine and it has stood as stand
ing menace to all foreign countries
from that time to this" Senator Ed
munds called attention to the way
British claims in Honduras had grown
from almost nothing to 1000 square
miles. In British Guiana in 1851
the British claims included only q
few towns, with no boundary at all
given on the border toward Venezuela.
