strides on the smoke of factory
chimncys will be no novel sight in
the now paralyzed Island. In bust
ness as well as political sense, Cuba
has a wonderful future.
Evidence of it's richness is given by
the fact that Cuba was self-support-
ing as early as 1927. Since that time
it has prospered steadily and exceed
ingly. 1t has paid Spain since 1927
from $l,000,0O0 to $6,OOOO0O yearly. 1t
is country wonderfully prosperous,
and increases in prosperity when let
alone by its own and other peoples.
1t has grown steadily richer despite
the fact that it's per capita taxation
is three times that of the United
States. Now that Spain must forever
keep hands off the little island. and
American thrift will be infused into
its slow southern veins, we shall see
great things from it,
The climate Of Cuba is in many parts
delightful Being insular, the heat of
the sun is much tempered by cooling
| breezeS from the surrounding waters.
1t is much more healthy than is COM
monty supposed, the higher portions
being comparative free from the deadly
disease of some of the Iowlands. The
fearful mortality from yellow fever in
Havana is due almost wholly to the hor-
ribly unsanitary condition of the city.
The bay is a huge cesspoOl that con-
tains enough germs of all sorts, kinds
and conditions to devastate the world
There is almost no tideway in the bay
not more than four inches. With
American capital aud American busi-
ness ability the drainage of Havana
and its consequent Improvement in
matters of health are foregone conclu-
sions.
Americans will reap rich financial
harvests i'm Cuba, whether it be an
neXed or not, and in the years not far
distant the population will be largely
American in either case. American
capital will predOminate and American
ideas of government will obtain. on
account of the right hand of fellowship
now extended by Uncle Sam, Ameri-
cans will be welcomed by the Cubans.
and given concessions greater than
any other nation. The relationship
between the countries will be very
close, and the commercial interests
of one identical with those of the
other.
on account of its climate Cuba has
great recuperative powers, and
when the patriots have beaten the
sword into the plowshare it will be
but a short time until all traces of
the recent devastation will have disap-
peared There will he no further de-
stroying of crops, as the insurgents
hold the situation. and the rainy sea-
son, now approaching, will oblterate
many sigs of ruin made during the
past two years. The Pearl Of the An
TILES will shine all the brighter for
its baptism i'm blood and will cast its
radiance over all the globe whether
it be only a single gem or is worn in
COlumbia'S crown.
