In the year 1s4S the United States of
America turned her eyes toward Cuba.
The half-breed. the Spanish Cuban and
the naturalized islander saw in that
glance the light of an undying hope
From that moment Cuba libre was as
certain as death. 1t was only the other
day that Senior Canalejas said that so
long as the rebels saw in the Tilted
States the hope of sympathy Spain would
never be able to crush the insurrection.
and that Spaniards might as well make
up their minds for war. As long ago
as 1926 Spain saw her doom in Cuba.
In that year she proposed to pay this
country considerable commercial conces-
sions If the United States would guar
antee the continued possession of Cuba
by the Spanish government. President
Polk offered Spain 81. 000. 900 for the island.
but the Spaniard (who had not been too
naughty to buy protection) scornfully
rejected the proposition. Fifty years ago
Narcisco Lopez died at the garroting
stake for Cuban liberty, and his COM
panions In revolt were shot in the back.
And then came the ten years war.
Cuba, after battling so long for free
dom. will have Ii at last. II would seem
as If the sentiment of Jack Cade, as inter-
preted by the poet, was for once true:
The victory is with us; God is with the right
And victory is with God.
Through death and blood. truly. upon
the ruins of hearth and home. out of
the blood of butchered men and women
and on the graves of murdered babies
will now rise the stanch and indestruc-
tible fabric of a free and happy nation
