by General Maxine Gomez, the rebe'

''You have come to supercede weyler
To man of your condition would ask
as I did in the case Of General Campos,
What are your aims and purposes? To
exterurinate JIs?' Il is impossible to do
that. and to pretend such a thing might
be little honor TO YOU. Is your purpose
70 subdue us? That Is absurd and might
prove a ridiculous attempt for you. Our
determination is well known and patent.
Neither extermination nor submission
would mean peace. In view Of this fact
I appeal to you. as to General CampOs:
Let this bloodshed stop Spain should
not allow Cuba 70 owe her independence
directly or indirectly to outside help. Let
the deep abyss between Cuba~s and
Spaniards disappear by spain's recogni-
tlon Of the Cuban republic. Then there
shall be eternal peace. Otherwise there
shall be blood and fire. That would be
the command Of cur horror and dignity,
We will follow It until victory which al
ways crowns those who fight for Justice,
