MCKINLEY AND CUBA.
Mr.. Calhoun, the special commits.
siOner sent to Cuba by President Nc
kinley has returned. u addition, Con.
sul-General Lee has made an ohlc
report. They both agree that Dr
Ruiz, an American citizen. was moi
only denied bis treaty rights as a,
American citizen, but that he wa,
murdered by Spanish hands while still
in prison. With this positive and Re
markable Information in hand, Nc
kinley leaves on trip to Nashvill,
without taking any action or commu.
nicatinR with COngr,s s. IL GeOrg
Washington, Thomas jefferson, An
drew Jackson or Abraham Lincoll
were President they would give Spail
not more than ten days to atone 70
this crime.
Besides, the reports of Consul Gel
eral Lee and Special COMMISSIONS
Calhoun both show that Spain has al
ready practically lost control of tn
Island. She has no hope of regainin,
it except by butchery and destruction
Of property. The time has certainl
come for the United States to act. w
will not allow any other Nation to en-
terfere, therefore, We must be re-
sponsible for the outrages and butch
cry committed by the cruel Span
diards on the struggling and patriot
Cubans. There are rumOrs that tn
, Administration has scheme ON foo
: to allow the Cubans to buy their free
!, dom. That is for the Cubans to shoul
der the Spanish debt and for til
United States to become security 10
. the payment of Spanish bonds. Thi
scheme Of course is in the interest G
the Spanish bondholders. Most G
, these bonds are held by the Roth
! schilds. 1t really seems that the mon
ey gamblers have almost the Who'll
world by the throat. Whenever @
wherever an effort is made for huma
progress or human liberty there tn
!, ShyIOcks stand In the way and d,
mands his pound of flesh.
