gard to the interior towns the
situation is explained by the
fact that in an attack upon them
many Cuban families, includ-
ing those of some of the Cubans
in the army, would perish either
from Spanish revenge or from
the bu' lets of the patriots.
When the revolution broke out
Cubans and Spaniards lived to-
gether in the towns. The Gu
bans for the most part were
married or had parents and rel
atives, while the Spaniards
were single, having their par
ents and relatives in Spain.
The Cubans left in the towns
their families when they went
to the country to join the in
surgent army. Having remem-
brance of the experience of the
war of 1868, when the women
who took the field proved bur
den for the Cuban soldiers, and
some of them were the victims
of infamous outrages by the
Spanish, they preferred to leave
their families in the towns
where Cruelties cannot be com
mitted openly without arousing
public indignation and perhaps
inviting the protest of foreign
representatives. But notwith-
standing the danger of their
families, the Cubans would
seize an important town, espec-
tally a seaport, if they had bel
ligerent rights and were in
possession of a navy which
would enable them to keep it.
At present the Cubans can
not hope to possess war ships
The American public is well
aware of how many difficulties
the Cubans encounter in send
ing expeditions toCuba. Their

ships are liable to seizure and
detention, and have to sail as
merchant steamers when at
last they find a chance to start.
tits mistake, therefore, to
compare the situation of the
Cubans with thatof the Confed-
crates during the civil war in
this country. The seaports of
the Confederacy were not occu-
pied by the Federals when the
war began. It was struggle
of the South against the North,
each side having it's own terri
tory and it's own cities. Cuba's
war is the uprising of a colony
against it's Government, of the
natives of an island against
their oppressors, with the latter
possessing all the benefits of
belligerency.
The following sketch of the
progress of the revolution from
it's humble beginning until
Dec, 1895, is taken from book
by Senior FidelG. Pierra under
the title of Cuba; Physical
Features Of Cuba; Her Past,
Present, and Possible Future
"The uprising took place on
the oath of February, 1895, in
the province of Santiago de
Cuba and in other places.
During the first month the
success of the movement was
rather doubtful, and it was only
saved by the firmness and reso-
luton of some of the chiefs, es-
pecially by Barto1ome Masso
and Gnillermo Moncada, who,
although they saw that the
people did not respond as
quickly as it was expected, re-
fused to listen to any PROPOSE
ton to give up the attempt.
On the 31st of March Gen. An
tonic Maceo, his brother Jose,
Flor Crombet, and Agustin &C.
breco, all veteran leaders, with
twenty-five others, landed at
Duaba, near Baracoa, and as
soon as they joined those who
were already in arms. and the
news of their arrival reached
Santiago and other cities, the
aSDeCt of thinUs chanoad opd
men who until then hesitated
to support the movement began
to join the army. On the 18th
of April Gen. Maxine Gomez
and Jose Marti with six friends
landed at the southeastern ex-
tremity of Cuba, and having
joined Maceo a general plan
was arranged whereby Gen.
Maceo was to remain in the
province of Santiago, and Gen.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1896-05-21

refers to the year 1895, and the
$4,000 volunteers employed for
the garrison of Havana and the
principal towns of Cuba. That
makes a total of 238, 295 men in
arms on the Spanish side. And
it was said, lately, that Gen.
Weyler had asked for more re-
Inducements.
The above figures are elo-
quent to prove that the revolu-
ton is not a negro movement
and an uprising of outlaws,
having against them the large
majority of the Cubans, as the
Spanish Government usually
states. They prove also that
the Cuban army is not a band
of bandits without a military
organization and intelligent
leaders. A band of bandits
does not require 238 ,295 soldiers,
under the command of the best
Spanish Generals, to suppress
it.
The Cuban army numbers
$4,000 men, as stated before in
The Sun. It is divided into five
army corps, the four first oper-
atingin the provinces of Santi-
ago de Cuba, Puerto Principe,
Las Villas, and Matanzas, and
the last, called also the Invad-
ing Army, operating in Havana
and Pinar del Rio. At the
present moment the Cubans
are in possession of the six
provinces in which the island
is divided, with the exception
of the seaports and the princi-
pal towns in the interior. Out
side the towns the Spanish
have no control. Their soldiers
hold only the land on which
they step as they pass from one
town to another. The whole
country is in the hands of the
patriots, and in some parts of
the island, as in the Orient,
their troops are undisturbed.
Gen. Calixto Garcia, with the
men of the Bermuda expedition,
landed there. He is unmolested
by the Spanish, and employs
his time at present in organic
ing and training his troops for
an attack upon the enemy.
People not conversant with
Cuban affairs cannot easily un-
derstand two things: First,
how it is that Cubans are not
in possession of an important
town or seaport, and, second,
how with only $4,000 men, and
not so well armed as the Span
ish, they can stand successfully
against 238, 295 men. With re-

From the NetU York Sun.

The Importance of the results
achieved thus far by the Cuban
insurgents is demonstrated by
the powerful army which Spain
is obliged to keep in the island
and with which she is still I'M
able to put down the revolution.
In "El affo Politico' the politi-
cal year,, book just published
at Madrid by a member of the
Cortes, Senior Solderilla, the fol
lowing estimate is made, from
official sources, of the number
of men sent to the field against
the patriots by the Spanish
Government:

The Xorkville Enquirer is q re-
liable newspaper on questions OF fact
and by what mischance the following
paragraph crawled into Its columns, we
cannot explain:
"Our gold standard friends, who.
some weeks ago, were promising q rise
In the price OF cotton In the event OF
the election OF Mckinley, are O
hedging by asserting that II Bryan
had been elected the price would have
been lower. just how this would have
peen OF course, we are unable to say;
but confronted with the error of judg-
ment as to the election of Mr.. McKin-
ley, we think we have o right to infer
that our friends were equally wrong In
their predictions as to what would
have followed the election Of Mr..
Bryan"
What gold STANDARD "friend" pre-
dicted . rise in the price Of cotton?
Answer!
The gold standard. advocates dis
tinctly did not predict that the cleo
tion OF Mckinley would improve the
price OF agricultural products. They
held that 1t would prevent G panic.
The price OF cotton is only a very
of politics anyhow.-Charleston Post.
When the people Of the South have
learned that the price OF all products,
agricultural and mechanical depend
upon supply and demand, they will
have made a large advance towards
solving the problem of prosperity. We
need other hundred industries to make
a prosperous South. Fortunately for
the cotton planter to-day there are
hundreds of thousands colored labor
ers employed otherwise than in cotton
fields. Mechanical contrivances are
cheapening cotton. Educate your ons
and they will not have to compete with
the cheap labor employed by your
neighbors.

Colonel johnson said last night that
II Mckinley gave prosperity, he
thought the free silver issue would be
dead for 1900, but On the other hand,
If the present hard times continues to
exist, then Bryan four years hence
would be the Democratic leader and
sweep the Countrywide State.
But the trouble lies right here,
don't you know" Our friends The
State and Joe johnson have demon
strated beyond p~eradventure that
without free silver prosperity can't
come. Debate is out of order.
1t must be noted that irrefutable ar
gument and logic cannot be overcome
by facts, however they may be. Our
friends II they don't watch, will find
themselves in the case of the physi-
clan who proved that his patient
couldn't die, although he had been de-
Gently buried and his heirs we're en-
