and congress will decide on just
what course to adopt in the
troubles with SPAN, and there is
now hardly doubt that there will
be a test of military and naval
strength between the two nations.
It is still a question, however, as
to just what shape the proceedings
will take. The end intended will
be the expulsion of the Spanish
troops from Cuba, snd.the independ'
ence of the island. The time has
evidently passed when the recogni'
ton of belligerency or even indie
pendence would satisfy public
sentiment or accomplish to result
now desired. A f.'w months ago
that was all the friends of Cuba
expected or asked, but now the
general demand of the American
people is that Cuba be completely
released from Spanish control.
The destruction of the Maineis the
foundation for much of this feeling.
There is no proof that the
Spainards destroyed the Maine,
but the American people believe
they did. The treatment"that the
Spainards have accorded the Cuban
reconcentradoes will probably be
used as reason for this govern.

and representatives favor direct

the grounds the war now in prog

Terminated. With the Spainards
driven out, Cuba would in fact be
free, and recognition would soon

president and congress favor the
freedom of Cuba, and are prepared
to take the necessary action to
to accomplish it. 1t is very
probable that the course President
Mckinley suggests in his message
this week will be followed. While
the president will rightly exhaust
every honorable means to keep
this country from war, the affairs
have now reached a stage where
Cuba must be free, and neither
house of congress has any faith in
further negotiations with Spain.

The word of our people has gone to
these old defenders that the city will
treat them well. Let us do so. A lit
tie work will accomplish it. Much,
very much. depends on the efforts of
the first two committees mentioned.
Provision must be made to meet the
expenses here indicated by the Finance
Committee.
The best rates obtainable for the
old soldiers individually which it is
hoped may be equal 10 those obtained
bv the Columbus committee, on all the
roads centering here. and for the
United States regulars as a battalion
from Columbus. or one of them, will
devolve on the Transportation Com
mittee, and it may even be deemed
important TO get rates to the Valley
and East, Virginia for those who may
desire to visit the battle fields OF these
localities once more.
The Committee on Invitations du-
ties will be continuous, but is more OF
an individual character.
