A Word for Cuba.

In 1895 there broke out rebellion in
Cuba against the Spanish government.
The cause of this rebellion was long-con-
tinued ill-treatment, beginning with the
war between Spain and Mexico, when the
Cubans were compelled to fight on the
Spanish side.
To subdue this last rebellion Spain
sent troops, cannon and mUskets, as she
did in that of 1895, when there was a
similar uprising. But Cuba is like the
tabled cat with nine lives, for when the
Spanish thought she was subdued she
was just ready to fight it all over again.
Then the Spanish, finding that open war;
fare did not answer the purpose, resorted
to butchery, treachery and the terrible
powers Of starvation and torture. They
marched inland and destroyed farms and
plantations, making prisoners Of all the
people on the farms, fearing that they
would help the Cuban troops. These
prisoners, called reconcentradOs," were
taken far from their ruined homes and
shut up in filthy pens in strange city
and left to die by slow starvation.
You free men in a free country, who
say you are opposed to war on our
part that would put a stop to this, put
yourselves in the position of these poor
Cubans and see how you would feel.
Would you not feel that Cuba should
be helped, even If by war? And yet
you and our President Mckinley wan;
peace" AS things are now President
Mckinley says to Congress, 81 pray God
that we may be able to keep peace"
He wants peace mainly because Mark
Hanna wants peace, and President Nc
Kinley does not dare to offend Mark
Hanna, who says, "War will affect
stocks" It is Stocks" not suffering
people, that Mark Hanna cares for.
But this sort Of peace is a dishonor-
able peace and one in which Cuba goes
on being devastated and outraged. This
Is peace born of love Of money; one
that monied men want; one that the gold
bugs and the wine drinkers want.
II it is evidence of SPANS cruelty and
oppression in Cuba that Mckinley wants,
let him go to Cuba, as many men have
gone, and bring back the tale that other
men have brought. Would he not then
compel Spain to give Cuba her rights,
and II this Is refused, declare for war
for just cause? If he does not do this.
then the President Of the United States
will deserve to be called mere weather
cock, blown from the right by the
breath Of Mark Hanna.

the children to machine oil, for their
little hands are muhlated by accidents,
until many thousands Of them have only
stumps OF fingers" Now, children. all
these dreadful things make people think
and study about the cause Of all the
trouble. And the people who believe IN
socialism are those who find that the
rich men, who have millions of dollars,
are getting richer all the time by sell
iishness, by getting all they can from the
labor Of the poor. They own the land,
they own the mines, the machinery, the
railroads, and, really, they own the bod
les OF the men, women and children who
work for them. Now, socialism means
that the people, that Is, all the people,
ought to own the machinery and all these
opportunities that really belong to them.
Then everyone would receive the true
value of his labor and there would be
social order, instead of all this compe.
titlon and disorder and distress. Can't
you see how much better II would he
then for the children? So you will re-
member that socialists are those who
are trying to make this world better
place to live in; they are trying to drive
out the suffering and poverty and to
bring In new order Of life where every
mau will love his neighbor. When /
think Of the word socialism I always
think Of love, happiness and unselfsh-
ness. Don't you think these are three
good things to work for?

What Socialism Means to Children.

What Socialism Means to Children.
Miss Ella Reeve Ware writes such an
interesting letter to her little readers Of
the Social Democrat that / want the Ad-
vocate and News children to have the
benefit of it, too. 1t follows:
In the first letter wrote you told you
about the little boy who sold papers in
the streets of New York at midnight,
but there are worse things going on all
over our country. One of our comrades
in New York visited great many sweat
shops last week-dark, dirty, gloomy
rooms, where the little children were
sewing on buttons, pulling threads, do
ing all sorts Of work on piles OF cloth
ing Here they have to sit day after day.
without any fresh air, without any play,
and with very little food. At night they
are so tired they can scarcely crawl to
their heap OF rags in the corner which
they call their bed. You all know that
hundreds of little boys and girls work in
the big, noisy factories and mills; and
have you heard about the little boys who
work all day down in the deep, dark
coal mines, almost never seeing the
beautiful sunlight or the green fields?
All this Is called child slavery. Mr..
Debs says: "The father was discharged

Three Topeka BOyS-Tom, Dick and
Harry.


It was in the rotunda Of the State
house one afternoon not long ago when
two little boys were seen gazing at the
scdffolding where the men are at work
finishing the dome. One was named
Tom, the other Harry.
"Say, there, you kids better come out
from under that there scaffolding fore
a stone makes you see stars" This from
a bOotbIack looking for a victim who
would have Shine, sir?"
The two kids thus addressed, not wish
ing to view the solar system at close
range, hastily retreated from their pre-
carious position.
We've been wondering where they
are going to put those pictures Of great
people. 1 shouldn't think they could
be seen way up in the dome" said Tom.
"I see you are from the backwoods
or you'd know that the Pops hain't going
TO have them portraits at ALL" glibly an
swered the boOtblack, whose name IS
Dick, and who seemed better versed in
passing events than in the use Of gram
mar "If l was the Governor I'd put
Mark Hanna's or Fitzsimmons' picture
up there. They needn't nobody be
ashamed then"
"Oh!" said Tom. "That would be aw-
full I'd have Bryan"
"Then you're a Popocrat Well dunn
mie, who's your choice, Jerry Simpson"
asked Dick.

Harry, strengthening up. "And I'm a
Republican"
Sure, why you amt such dummy as
you look. Shake" And Dick stuck out
his hand to clasp the hand of Harry, the
rich boy, while Tom looked ON with
wise little smile.
"Ill bet you don't know why you're
a Republican" and Tom thought that
he had them now, sure.
"Yes, do, it's because we want sound
gold money" ventured Dick. "And
tariff, too," chimed in Harry. II guess
you don't know what Pop Is or you'd
be a Republican"
"a Populist," began Tom, who prided
himself on his knowledge Of politics,
believes in municipal ownership"
whats that?" interrupted Dick and
Harry In chorus.
my pap told me to say that municipal
ownership means that the cities shall
own and operate their electric light and
gas plants, street railways and water
works."
What good would that do?" asked
Dick.
