His reply at this time. inasmuch as he
quotes 1t in his book. is probably his opin-
ion today. Here is what he said: "Yes.
nexation. but do not think we want Cuba
as an appendage of the United States. I
would not favor annexation. In spite of
the drains upon her. Cuba is enormously
rich In resources, and rs a large consumer
of our products, on which at present the
heaviest Spanish duties rest. What I would
favor would be reciprocity treaty with
Spain as to Cuba, that We might send
our goods there instead of forcing the Gu
bans to buy of England. France and Ger
many. We could do the island much more
good by trading with her on an equal ba-
sis than we ever can by annexing her.
Cuba to some extent Is under our eye. We
would probably never let any other nation
than Spain own the island but so long as
Spain does own it she Is welcome to it. if
she will only let us sell our goods on equal
or better terms than the Cubans can get
them for elsewhere.
These statements of the senator were
much different idea as to Spain today, for
ne would be the last man to sanction any
Ill treatment of Americans or others by a
foreign nation. Still he thoroughly appre-
cfates the advantages Of American trade
with cuba, and should the present adminis-
traticn do anything in favor of Cuban in
dependence Its action will be probably fol-
lowed by such trade relations as will be
or decided advantage to the United States.
