SYMPATHY FOR CUBA.

L
There is much sympathy in the Uni
ted States for Cuba, but all that is
expressed is not genuine and behind
much that passes for such is the spirit
of greed. There is no better illustra-
ton of this than what Senator Frye
said on the subject at Portland, Me-,
| the other day He had been criticising
the administration and telling what
strange and wonderful things the Re-
publican party would do when it got
control of the government. Said he:
If had my way we would give bel
| ligerent rights to Cuba, and not watch
too closely or employ too many ships
to bring back those who want to go to
Cuba and HELM the islanders in their
struggle for liberty, And then when
Cuba is free and the American capt.
tai gives new life to that island, I
should be willing, in dozen years or
| more, to fold her fondly in our arms,
for by right she belongs to us and not
to Spain.
All that is hollow pretence of sym
pathy for Cuba in her struggle for in
dependence. Then what an abandon
ment of the idea that a nation has
any moral duty to perform in carrying
out its solemn treaties. So long as
we have duties to perform towards
Spain in the matter Of allowing warlike
expeditions to leave cur shores to
operate against her, they should be
as sacredly performed as paying our
national debt. We may sympathize
with Cuba; we may execrate Spain,
who may be decrepit and perhaps
cruel, but all these things cannot re-
lieve US of our moral responsibility to
her. Might does not make right though
it may make policy.
But Senator Frye tears the mask off
and utters his true sentiments when
he says that in few years, when
Cuba really began to enjoy liberty and
had begun to recover from the effects
of the struggle to obtain it, he should
be willing ''to fold her fondly in our
arms, for by right she belongs to US
and not to Spain"
1t is well that the Maine Senator did
not undertake to explain by what
right Cuba belongs to US rather than
to Spain, for the task would have
OOOi ~ anu lar beyond MIN. This
statement also ignores all rights to
independence that the Cubans may
claim for themselves. Our rights in
Cuba, as defined by Frye, are those
OF greed and gobble. And this is
what some call patriotism and a Wig
orous foreign policy, and others lin
golsm. And those who call it jingo-
ism call 1t that which it is

Great Britain, like the Gripping of ag-
riculture in the United States, not only
agriculture but every other industrial
pursuit, is solely due to the throwing
away of half the money Of the
world"
Observe, the word SOLELY is used
in reference to the working of the de-
monetization of silver brought about in
which has kept silver in subordination
to gold ever since. Usually, when the
Tribune has been confronted by it's ut
terly irreconcilable statements on this
subject, it has sought to creep out of
its dilemma by saying that the depres-
sion of industrial pursuits has been
partly caused by the Staying of silver
but partly by the fear of Democratic
legislation. Now it returns to its
muttons" and avows that all the trou-
BILE to agricultural and every other
industrial pursuit" in the United States
lis SOLELY due to the throwing away
of half the money of the world"
Speaking further on this subject in
another editorial on the same day and
page, 1t says:
THE low price of agricultural pro-
ducts is not, in England, due to free
trade any more than the low prices Of
the same product in the United States
is due to the tariff"
That is also after the election. Be-
fore the election free trade. as that pa
per pleased to call the Democratic tar
lift for revenue. was the prime cause
of all the evils of the times in this
country. if the Tribune and Republi-
can orators were to be believed.
Let the latest admissions of the Re-
publican Tribune be noted and pre-
served. They will be useful for flu
ture reference. Just now they are

MISS KATE FIELD, who was a So
journer in our city for some weeks,
has recently gone to San Francisco
where she was interviewed on Utah
affairs, declaring that hundreds Of
Mormons are still living polygamous
lives. The Desrret News takes this
matter up and after reciting the evil
dences and telling of the pledges of
good faith given by the people in this
connection. comments as follows: "AlI
this may happen, all this may be as
serted, all this may exist-and vet a
vain and garrulous penny-a-liner of the
female persuasion can come along, re-
main a few weeks under unfriendIy in
iuences and pass on with the remark
as to what she has done by way of
soaring somebody or what ought to be
done to effect the same result" The
remark is unfortunate as the chief in
fuences surrounding Miss Field while
here were those of the Tribune, and
the News and the tribune have seen
eye to eye together so much of late.
There is q sad lack Of harmony some
where.

SENATOR SHERMAN's memory must
be getting very treacherous. for the
Washington Post says: Speaking OF
his recent speech in Cleveland, Senator
Sherman is credited with saying that

is bad thing, unless everybody's
memory can be made to be bad at the
same time and on the same subjects.
To accomplish this has thus far been
found impossible.
