The Senate Resolution.

The text of the senate resolution
adopted Saturday night hy a vote of
81 to p declares that the people of
the island Of Cuba are, and of right
ought to be- free and independent, and
that the government OF the United
States hereby recognizes the republicof
Cuba as a true and a lawful govern
ment of the island; that it is the duty
of the United States to demand, and
the government Of the United States
does hereby demand that the govern
ment of Spain at once relinquish its
authority and government in the island
Of Cuba and withdraw its land and
naval forces from Cuba and Cuban
waters; that the president of the United
States he, and he hereby is, directed
and empowered to use the entire land
ana naval forces of the United States
and TO call into actual service of the
United States the militia of the several
states to such extent as may be neces-
%IS to carry these resolutions into
effect; and that the United States
hereby disClaims any disposition or in
tention to exercise sovereignty. juris-
Gic'ion or control over said island, ok
cept for the pacifiCatiOn thereof, and as
serts its determination, when that is ac-
cnmplished, to leave the government
an' control of the island to its people"
The last clause was adopted lust
prior to the final vote, upon motion of
Senator Davis. 1t was adopted without
opposition ana ii will have the fullest
approval of the people When the in
ner history of this cuban issue is made
public 1t will probably be found that
back Of the peculiar manoeuvers Of the
peace -at-any- price element was a we'll
defined purpose to turn the inevitable
war at the last minute into a war for
annexation, war of forcible conquest.
As much, indeed. was openly admitted
by one of the leaders of this element
Senator Elkins, From first to last this
element seems to have been actuated
solely by hope Of gain. The bond and
the dollar sign have to all appearances
been the Alpha and Omega of the
standards by which they entered upon
the consideration of this question; if
the thought Of doing one brave deed
for liberty and humanity without con-
dition Of repayment or baggle as to
price ever entered their minds, evil
dence of it is not supplied In any pub
lie record. Since the days when the
Savior of mankind drove the money
changers from the temple there has
been no act more fitting than the adop-
tion by the American senate Of the
clause renouncing designs Of acqulsi-
tion upon Cuba.
That clause makes unimportant the
question Of the immediate recognition
OF the Cuban republic.

1t Is a mistake to credit Mr. Bryan
with having been the instrumentality
which lined up 81 votes In the senate
against the presidents 81. Mr. Bryan
may be a very able and adroit poll
tlcian and a natural leader Of men, but
he has not and probably never win
have that much individual power. The
vote in the senate meant simply that
public opinion, after much disappoint-
ment, grew heartily tired of the long
and fruitless diplomatic dawdling
which had characterized the earlier
stages Of our Cuban policy and was
determined at last to cut across lots.
This may not have been an especially
prudent decision but it certainly was
and is a popular one. Solicitude for
Spain's feelings no longer animates the
great body of the American people, and
confidence In Spanish Justice and
honor" has descended to zero. Hence
the command from the people to pres-
dent, army, congress, navy, trained
militia and volunteers is to stop
procrastinatlng load their guns and
move on

purposes of personal jotbery. This is
what the candidacy of Mr.. Wanamaker
represents. Mr.. Wanamaker Is not seek
ing nomination for governor himself,
but he demands, and the cause he leads
demands, that the nominee shall not be
the slated candidate of jobbers and self
seekers who have dishonored the party.
The people would be satisfied to accept
Charles w. Stone, of Warren; William
Connell, John Leisenring, or some other
thoroughly representative Republican.
But whomsoever the candidate, the con-
Vention must come face to face with the
fact that sincere and earnest Republi-
cans who are no longer willing to sub
nit to the misuse and abuse of the Re-
publican name and organization must be
reckoned with. Only those who are de-
termined to wreck the party will ATTEMPT
to force the nomination of mere per-
SOnal candidate

"LISTEN! CUBA"

For The Tribune.
We've heard thy cry, oh, cuba,
Thy cry of deep distress.
The seas, thy plant have taken,
And the winds, thy woes possess.
The seas, against our shores.
Sob out thy narrowing tale.
And the winds thy sorrows bear,
TO us in mournful wall.
"Then. wherefore" do We ask
"Have ye so long delayed?
Wherefore is your scabDard
So welded to the blade?
Wherefore have ye waited,
And watched our awful toll
When a blow from thy strong arm
Would cleave the serpent's coil?"
Listen!! Cuba,
Thus, would we answer thee
BY thine own brave endeavor,
We hoped thou wouldst be free
Hoping, 'gaiEst hope we waited,
And we waited over long,
But we've thrown the gage at last
And we swear to right the wrong.
Listen!! Cuba,
Wher'er on land or seas,
Columbias sons have flung
Their banners to the breeze,
Their swords within their scabbards
Nor sought, nor found a rest,
Until the wrong was righted,
And the spoilcr dispossessed.
Listcn,! Cuba,
Let this be thy star of hope,
COlumbia's sons are arming
From Maine 10 western slope.
And Cuba, brave Cuba,
Thou can'st tell thy baTbarous Zoe,
They have sworn before high heaven
TO lay thy spoiler low.
Listen!! Cuba,
They, too, have felt the breath,
That has scorched into thy soul,
They too, i'm throes of death
Have seen their comrades fall
And WIENER they strike the blow
They'll not forget, oh Cuba,
The measure of their woe.
Arthur l.. Collins.

OUR DIPLOMATIC SERVICE.
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
At least one feature of the present sit
uation will prove a cause of general ap-
proVal and Contentment. The knowledge
that our controversy with Spain has been
taken out of the hands of diplomacy and
transferred to those of congress, will re-
joice every one. Our diplomatic conduct
of the Cuban affair, whether during the
Cleveland or the Mckinley administra-
tlon, has satisfied nobody, AMI accom-
plished nothing. This kindergarten bust
ness has merely prolonged n fruitless ne
gotiation. at every stage Of which we
have been outwitted, and it has ended in
a war which might much more right
eously have been invoked two years a6o.
We are In a false and humiiating predic-
ament, so far as diplomacy is concerned,
and we have a tragedy on our hands Just
the same.

ELEMENTS OF POPULARITY.

From the Carbondale Leader.
The formal announcement of Mr.. Con-
nells candidacy for the gubernatorlal
nomination Is well received by the press
and people of this section of the state,
and 1t is probable that he will be enthu-
siastically supported by the delegates
from northeastern Pennsylvania. Mr..
Connells conduct since his entry into
public life has received commendatory
mention in many quarters. He Is popu-
lar at home and has elements of strength
that will appear later in other parts of
the state.

l myself love peace, being a man of
conservative opinions. But as we went
into the struggle thirty-seven years ago
to free the slaves, so it may be necessary
tomorrow to go into battle to free an
oppressed people. No matter whether in
terventiOn may be an infraction of our
old policy of minding our own business,
the moment the sound of the first gun

The coming state convention Is called
upon to relieve the party of responsible

padded pay rolls, for legislative jobbery
and plundcring by making a nomination
such as will assure the people that not
only are these things repudiated, but
there can be no repetition of them. IL
