The Qrads.
THE CUBAN SITUATION.
A Democratic Newspaper

Will the United States be JUS
titled in taking such radical ac-
ton as Congress proposes? In
the first place, American inter
ests in Cuba Ire involved. This,
however, is not a matter for Sc
rious consideration, as Spain can
be held responsible for all prop
erty holders. The avowed de-
termination of Captain General
Weyler to practically disregard
all methods of civilized war and
resort to barbarity, if carried
into effect, will! justify the United
States or any other civilized ma
ton in interfering in the in>
terest of humanity.
But so long as the Cubans
have no regular form OF govern
ment on the island-their Presi-
dent resides in this country-it
is difficult to see Why they are
entitled to recognition as a dis
tinct organization. They are
without a navy, too, and their
army consists, in The main, of
rowing bands rather than M or>
ganized force. They have, new
ertheless. been able to make war
upon Spain for over a year and
hold a large part of the island.
AS men, however, they are en-
titled to be treated with human
ity and not dealt with as if they
were barbarians, as Weyler pro
poses, and if the government of
the Cubans and the organization
of their army and navy do not
justify their recognition as bel
ligerents, the fact that Spain is
preparing TO practice barbarous
methods upon them, warrants
some form of interference by the
United States, which Is the dOms
inaut power in the Western Hem
isphere.
It looks like between Congress,
the President, England, Spain,
Cuba. Venezuela, the iingoes and
American people generally, war
is bound to come and no douot
now is as good a time as any for
it. There is no particular objec~
ton to fighting Spain. either,
since England has backed down,
and Cuba's cause furnishes an
excellent excuse for a scrap.
The American people evidently
want war, SO let the dogs be
turned loose.

1t MdU Do as Much for You.

Mr., Fred Miller, of Irving, Ill, writes
that he had a sever kidney trouble for
many years, with severe pains in his
back and also that his bladder was af-
fectod. He tried many so-called kidney
cures, but without any good result.
About a year ago he began use of Elec-
trie Bitters and found relief at once.
Electric Bitters is especially adapted to
cure of all Kidney and Liver troubles
and often gives almost instant relief.
One trial will prove u statement.

hands of European powers, APP
portioned as they see tit and are
able and settled up with a thrifty
population. The work of civil
zation is going on, too, more
rapidly than is generally supe
posed. Cecil Rhodes, in a dis
patch to the New York World a
few days ago told of an influx Of
80, 900 new corners in the Trans
wall" The continent is being
divided between England, Ger

Italy, and the work of taking ac-
tual possession is being pushed

times greater than the State O

as the entire United States.

begun plying regularly on the
