Washington. April 5.-The senate this
afternoon passed the committee amend
ment to the sundry civil bill ~vacating the
Cleveland forest reserve orders. There
was quite a spirited debate on the propo-
sition. In which Senators Pettigrew and
Chandler were the principal participants.
The claim being made that the amend

Mckinley of the right 20 re-establish re-

accepted an amendment to the amend

and American, agree that whatever
may have been the condition Of Affairs
a year or Two years ago, General Blan-
CO has inaugurated a humans and ben
eficent system characteristic Of the
man. Naturally with an insurrection
in progress, military affairs have pur-
sued he usual methods of military life.
And In this they have been con-
stantly restrained at all time by the
determination to have their operations
worthy OF an honorable nation and an
honorable people. That Is all Spain has
sought to do in putting down a rebel
lion. IL Is what n government on the
face OF the earth would do.
Now. as to autonomy. IL seems TO
be overlooked, in the passing Of the
moment. that this home rule has been
the aspiration of the Cubans for years.
with the deepest sincerity. 1t gives the
Cubans the most complete control OF
their own affairs. They have a parlia-
ment OF their own and a cabinet or
their own ministers. Is II fair, just as
this local parliament and local cabinet
b affairs. to sweep aside this
entire system and to declare that 1t is
a failure before IL has even been tried?
If the United States says that this
home rule Is not a success. l reply.
Your opportunities for Investigation
have not been adequate. and. moreover.
success or failure cannot be judged be-
fore a system has been tried n when
it's initial steps have been attended by
difficulties, not only in the interior or
Cuba. but circumstances without tend
ing to defeat the very end sought
Ever though we may differ in this.
at least we should agree that the 1udg-
ment of one should not be forced arbi-
trarily upon the other. For the mo-
ment. IL seems as though this equitable
view was set aside and instead we hear
Autonomy Is a failure. We say so.
That ends IL. Spain must not say that
she is either sincere or that the plan Is
a success
Nov, is such an attitude consistent
with the usual process of considering
both sides of a question? Can a self
respecting nation admit of such con-
temptuous disposition of a policy she
has presented in the interest of peace
and prosperity for Cuba?
las to the reconcentrados, while
there is no doubt of the misery of their
condition. the government is making
the most heroic efforts to alleviate this
condition. As to the insurgents, they
have borne arms against Spain for
three years, entailing terrible loss OF
life n money. And yet. believing
those men to be misguided, the gov
