Sympathy VS.. Cash.

The Philadelphia Press sharply at
tacks the Cuban junta in this country
for permitting Julio SanGullly to vio-
late his parole by heading a filibuster-
ing expedition bound for Cuba. and it
declares that this and other acts Of the
Cuban leaders in this country have
greatly estranged American sympathy.
The facts as to Sanguilys alleged
departure have not vet been made pub
gossip. Judgment, therefore, is prema-
ture. or course if Sanguilly has broken
faith and the Cuban leaders have ap-
proved, the Press comments will be
not altogether undeserved. A parole is
a parole, no matter how obtained. 1t
was not an enviable attitude which
our government assumed when it con-
spred with Spain to tie Sanguiny's
hands, and if Sangullly's tale he true
that he was induced to sign away his
future by Misrepresentation the case
is made worse. Still, one wrong does
not excuse another, and if Sanguilly
has broken faith he and they who have
abetted his perfidy will deserve to fall
as they will fall. in popular esteem.
They must not. though, be condemned
on mere hearsay.
At best, however, this is only Incl
dental Is the main contention of the
Press true that American sympathy
for Cuba has cooled? To have cooled
II would need once TO have been warm.
or word sympathy the supply now is
quite as Voluminous and frothy as it
has ever been. We apprehend that our
contemporary had reference less to this
airy and unsubstantial form of senti-
mentality than TO the practical kind
which takes expression in ways tangi-
ble and sensible to the cause of the
patriots in the field. In this sense has
there ever been any considera BILE
amount of American sympathy to cool?
There are those who doubt it, Take.
for instance, that high sounding organ
ization, the American Cuban league, OF
which Ethan Allen was president. A
year ago IL filled the papers with its
fervid rhetoric, yet its cash cOntribu-
tion to Cuba libre, as announced on
one occasion in the Cuban organ, La
Patrie, was Just s2.75. Nearer home
the local papers and clergy and best
citizens generally have talked and
plead necessarily for the cause of
humanity in Cuba. Sentiment appar-
emily has been brought up to an un-
usual pitch. Yet the mayor of Scran-
ton, as one of the four depositarles ap-
pointed by executive proclamation to
receive Pennsylvania contributions in
behalf Of the starving thousands in
Cuba. after weeks of weary waiting,
has at last turned over TO the governor
at Harrisburg a fraction over SIS and
an old pair of pants.

difficulties under which the junta have
labored in getting their munitions of
war past the lines of our American
coast patrol and on the high seas, for
Cuba bound. 1t has not helped a single
Cuban warrior in the camp or In the
field. 1t has not deferred the govern
ment of the United States from using
the whole power OF it's diplomacy on
the side of Spain as against Cuba and
In hndrance rather than in aid of the
Cuban insurrection. If, therefore. the
Cuban agents are losing American
sympathy" they are not losing that
which has had for them an appreciable
value judged by the standard OF utility.
And If, after so much empty talk of
sympathy, ending always in disap-
pontment, they should have decided
at last to discontinue all expectations
of American help and proceed to work
out their countrys salvation on an in
dependent basis. it would be con-
clusion for which they could not be
greatly blamed.

might doubtless succeed beyond all eX-
pcctations.
This peculiar phase Of the labor prob
lem is not confined to TIE New England
cotton mil region. In other sections Of
the country the same spirit IS mani
tested. Many young girls prefer to
work in a shop or store and board
themselves for the same wages that
they could receive in domestic service,
and nothing could tempt them to
change this course Of living. 1t is un-
fortunate for many young persons that
they take this view of the situation
but regrets are of no avail and it is
probable that this spirit will pervade
the labor question to ths end of time.
