The Cuban Patriot.

After the expenditure of many hundreds OF
lives and some one hundred and fifty millions
of dollars to free Cuba from Spanish rule, we
have discovered that the Cuban patriot, &C,
cording to reports by United States army
officers, is degenerate creature, lazy, indo-
lent, incapable of selfgovernment, and alto
gether treacherous. Gen. Young, of the reg
ular army, who commanded a brigade under
Gen. Wheeler, gives deplorable picture of
the so called patriots" and says they would
sell out to Spain if entrusted with the gov
eminent of the island, if it were to their ad-
vantage to do so, or would prey upon each
other All but jingoes knew this before war
was declared, and knew the United States
had made a mistake.

"Round-R

Many of our readers, no doubt, have seen
the term Round Robin" applied to letter
signed by a number of officers to Gen. Shat
ter, requesting that, as the capture of Santiago
had been consummated, and there being no
further use for the army in Cuba, all but a
sufficient garrison be sent home, to avoid the
danger from exposure and disease. Few,
perhaps, know the origin or meaning of the
term, and we give it from an old dictionary
as follows
ga written petition, remonstrance, ad.
dress, or other instrument, with the names OF
those signing it placed in ring or circle, so
that it may not be known who signed 1t trst
The officers of Skaters army did not sc
sign, and the term Ground Robin given to
their letter was msnomer.

Remember.

In any peace negotiations, Mr.. Mckinley
should remember that he said in his Inaugural
Address-"We want no wars of conquest, we
must avoid the temptation Of territorial ag-
erosion"
Further, let it be remembered that the de-
claration of war by Congress contained the
following declaration
''The United States hereby disclaims any
disposition or intention to exercise sovereign
ty, jurisdiction, or control over said island
(C3ba) except for the pacfcation thereof,
and asserts its determination when that is
az ACCOMPLISHED to leave the governm ent and
control of the island to its people.

Spain has virtually accepted the terms of
peace presented by the United States, yet
Gen. Miles is allowed to carry on the war III
Porto Rico and fresh troops are being sent to
reinforce him. This is useless expense and
a criminal exposure of our troops to disease
and the fortunes of war. Orders should be
sent for Gen. Miles to desst and the trans
portation of troops ought to be stopped.
Mismanagement is a mild term to apply
to the conduct of the war upon the part
of the Mckinley Administration.

Politics are getting warm among the Repub.
licans of the sixth congressional district.
Ashley Gould has beaten Congressman Nc
Donald in Montgomery county, where both
reside. Frederick Republicans would have
supported Mcdonald had he won his home
county, but their action now is uncertain.
Geo. A. Pearre will he backed by Allegany
and perhaps Garrett, and Judge Stake will
have Washington county. A. big muddle is
likely TO result and the outcome some severe
disappointments.

The irony of fate has placed the seth Mas
sachusetts" in strange position. Thirty-seven
years ago they were assaulted as they passed
through Baltimore en- route to put the negroes
on a par with the whites. Today, their off
GERS have resigned sin the face of the enemy
rather than return the salute Of the negro
officers. Temporal mutantur!

Master and Wellington have made a deal
in the interest of harmony, but the friends of
neither are satisfied. 1t is just possible tina t
Wellington and Master do not trust each
other, and each will keep close watch upon
the other And it is probable that either
would bolt the agreement could advantage be
obtained thereby.
