A SCATHING ARRANGEMENT.
Sensational Utterances in Report of the
House Committee on Invalid
Pensions.

favorable report to the house by Repre-

of the committee on invalid pensions,
of the Chicllering bill 'to encourage
enlistments OF veterans of the late war
during the anticipated war with Spain. >
The report says:
Whenever the attention OF Spain has been
diverted from the Cuban colony the people
have prospered and rapidly advanced. but no
sooner has considerable progress been ma lie in
civilization and the accumulation OF wealth than
the oppressive hand OF the mother country has
been placed on this people and oppression OF
the men and brutal and bestial outrage of the
women has followed, while every form of taxa
tion has been resorted to to rob the people Of
the fruits of their toll and keep them in con-
dition Of abjec servitude. This oppressed peo-
pie has struggled for a good government which
has been repeatedly promised, but never given
A few years ago a Cuban rebellion, promis-
ing success, was only sub iued by pledges OF re-
form, ut no sooner had the rebels laid down
their arms than every promise was broken,
every assur nee disregardo1 and every form Of
outrage resorled to. In the struggle for liberty
now in progress this people has been subjected
to almost every form Of Darbarty. The repre-
sentative OF the Spanish nation in Washing
ton, while beguling our executive with smiles
Of pretended friendship and promises of imme-
diate measur es to end the horrible condition of
affairs in Cuba. was writing and sending to
Spain letters abusing the chief magistrate Of
this republic.
Referring to the Maine incident, the
report continues:
Spanish officials alone hal the means or
knowledge necessary to secure the explosion OF
that mine beneath the Maine. Mines and pow
erful torpedoes do not feat about Havana har-
Dor like bullheads in pond 1t is an incident
OF such magnitude that the civilized world
shudGers ut its mention. American blood has
been shed and our American homes desolated
We are fully aware that the foot OF that cruel,
crafty, degenerate and blgotel nation has never
been planted on foot Of Gods green earth but
murder, misrule, outrage and isolation have
followed"
