MAGUIRE'S ADDRESS.

Mr.. Chairman and fellow Democrats.
ladies and gentlemen: To say that I am
pleased with the splendid gathering Of
my fellow citizens to aid in the opening
OF the campaign, and the inspiring enthu.
siasm which you have manifested, would
be but to feebly express the feeling which
1T brings to me.
We, are. entering upon a campaign
fraught with much Importance to the IN
terests of the. people, under auspices that
give us the brightest hopes of victory.
We come to this campaign asking for a
continuance of power in the hands Of
those who have been put forward as the
representatives of the three great reform
parties in California to-day, with SPLEEN
ministration behind them: with a State
administration which has fairly and hon
orably redeemed its every pledge to the
people; with q municipal administration
under the leadership of our distinguished
chairman tonight, which has more than
verified, more than realized, all the hopes
Of the people who with high expectations
he now fills. We, come into this contest

and Silver Republican parties for tina

]. say that II the people should abandon
their right to pass upon constitutional
amendments 1t would be q death blow to
their liberties, to their most sacred
rights; that 1t would be the almost i'm
mediate destruction Of all that is ereat
and glorious In their free institutions.
That the people must abandon their
rights In order to secure good laws for
themselves is fallacy that finds support
leges. The needs of the people to-day is
not that they shall get power out Of their
hands, but that they shall get power back

The plan of exchange submitted by Admiral Sampson to Admiral Cervera is thus tenn poraily frustrated.
 The United States cruiser Marblehead and the auxiliary cruisers Yankee and St. Louis were successful in cutting the cable at Guantanamo yesterdayfi firing on a Spnish gunboat and the old-fashioned forts there. Cuba is thus cut off from all com muniaciton with the outside world.
 The blockade has been uneventful since Monday.

family. His brother, Guillemo, is quite
celebrated. both in this country and
France, as painter and sculptor. En-
riuue was educated in Spain and
France.
Few have suffered greater material
loss for Cuba libre than Salvador Cis-
neros Betancourt, who was president
Of the republic from 1895 to 1897. Senior
Betancourt is now very old man, but
he bears the rigors of camp life as well
as Gomez. In 1868 he gave UP his for
tune, one of the largest in Cuba. and
took UP arms. Senior Betancourt is the
Marquis of Santa Lucia, but he re-
nounced his title when he became a
citizen of the Cuban Republic.
The one general in the Cuban army
who was not born in the West Indies
is Gen. Carlos Rola. Gen. Rola, Pole
by birth, did not come to Cuba as an
adventurer. He had settled in Cuba
some years previous to the first rising.
During our civil war he held the rank
of major in the Confederate army. He
is said to have been one of the most
daring f1libusters among the Cubans
He was Minister of War from 1895 to
1897
When the attempt at revolution in
Porto Rico was put down in 1868, Rus
Rivera, the son of a wealthy Porto
Rican, Joined the Cuban rebels. He did
not dare to return to Porto Rico in
rs, SO he went to Honduras and pur-
chased some plantations. He aban-
doned all his possessions when MART
called upon him. Gen. Rivera Is now
in fortress in Spain, having been cap
tured as he was journeying to take Ma
coos place after that generals death,

nesty. He Is Cuban of an old Span
ish family who saved enough from the
wreck of his fortunes to establish a
prosperous tobacco business in Phila-
delphia. When the time came he left
his business to take care of itself and
devoted himself to Cuba Most of the
supplies from the United States that
have reached the Cubans in the field
have been prepared and piloted to their
destination by Gen. Nuez, who holds
the record of having been tried and ac-
quilted twice in one week, being
charged with violation of the United
States neutrality laws.
Probably none Of the patriots has
given up more of the pleasures of So
cial life for his country than Gen. Bar
tolme Maso, who Is now president of
the Cuban Republic. He was the last
to lay down his arms in 1878. He was
imprisoned for months without trial
and finally allowed to return to his es-
tates. Having been a man Of wealth
and position before the first war, he
toiled until he brought his plantations
once more to the point when they re-
turned a large revenue. When the call
to arms swept over. the island in 1896
Gen. Maso burned his plantation as an
example to other patriots and took the
field.
The nature of the present revolution
may be judged from the men who in
augurated it and who carry it on.
First among Cuban liberators stands
Jose Marti. His father was an Of
ficer in the Spanish army who had
learned to sympathize with the people
of Cuba. Upon Jose's birth he threw

LIBERATORS OF CUBA.

| The treasurer of the party since its
first organization Benjamin J. Guerra,
was a substantial business man when
he cast his lot with the patriots. He
has managed to retain his business in
| terests, though the greater portion of
his time since 1896 has been occupied
in handling the vast sums OF money
which have been disbursed in carrying
on the war in Cuba and in arousing
sympathy abroad. His integrity and
financial ability have justified Marti's
selection of him.
! The list of the delegation Of foreign
representatives ends with q name that
coming generations of Cubans will hold
| in affectionate remembrance, that of
Horatio S. Rubens. Mr.. Rubens is q
young American lawyer who was fired
with desire to help a people strug-
Cling to be free. He became the init
mate friend Of Marti and Quesada, and
F., he volunteered to accompany Gomez to
Cuba. At Marti's request he remained
/ instead in this country, in the capacity
Of legal advisor to the Party.
AS Mr.. Rubens shook Martis hand
for the last time he solemnly prom
Used that he would henceforth devote
himself to the Cuban cause. How well
that promise has been kept may be
judged from the fact that he was
obliged to give up his private practice.
Practically all the filibustering and
seizure cases growing out of the war
have been defended by Mr.. Rubens. He
has become an authority on interna-
tional law and his success in guiding
the course of the delegation proves his
natural shrewdness

Scotch planters in the West Indies, who
own large plantations in Cuba.
The first president, Carlos M. de Ces-
pedes, stands as a type of the men who
took UP arms against Spain in 1868.
Cespedes was among the largest plant
ers in Cuba. His influence, by reason
of his high character, extended
throughout the island. When the APP
pointed time came, he called his slaves
numbering over 400, about him and Of
fered every man freedom who would
follow him to the field.
1t is due to this rebellion that slav-
cry no longer exists in Cuba.
When the Cuban leaders had dis
banded their forces at the end Of the
ten years. war they found that they
had been tricked. Spain's guarantee OF
amnesty was disregarded and many
Cubans were flung into prison or sent
to Spain.
For seventeen years these patriots
waited for Marti Some of them went
ia Honduras, others to Porto Rico, and
amany found an asylum in the United
States. At Key West, men who had
been large landowners with hundreds
Of slaves to do their bidding, worked as
tobacco pickers and cigar rollers.
Foremost among these exiles as well
as among the leaders of the present
revolution is T. Estrada Palma, now
foreign Representative of the Cuban
Republic and also delegate of the Gu
ban Revolutionary Party. Mr.. Palma
was one of the wealthiest landowners
in the eastern part Ct Cuba at the out
break of the war of 1S6S-7S. He was
in the field for nine years, serving UNI
der the civil government, and during

gled Against the Oppression SPAIN

Cuba's freedom has been bought by
the blood and suffering of her sristoc-
racy. The Cuban revolutions were not
uprisings of the masses held in bondage
and goaded by their misery. They were
rather the gallant attempts Of a proud
race, impatient of restraint, to gain the
~1llest freedom. The spirit of Patrick
Henry and of the Boston Tea Party is
abroad in Cuba, not the leveling and
low born fury of Marat and the sans
cuiottes. Perhaps never in history have
the ablest, best born and wealthiest
citizens of country struggling for in
dependence, more freely or more unani-
mously sacrificed so much for such a
cause. Men In their position have sell
dom risked more. The American colo
nists had nothing to fear for the lives
of their families and few possessed
wealth. But the leaders of the first
Cuban uprising were wealthy men liv-
ing luxuriously on large estates with
their slaves. Many Cuban planters were
Of the type of the southern gentleman
before the war-brave, courteous, hos
pitable, proud Of the pure Spanish blood
In their veins. Their establishments
were those of feudal barons. In the
rainy. season there was an exodus of
the planters to Europe, where their
children were educated.
These men were Cubans, not Span
iards. They regarded the officials of
Spain as aliens. Intercourse with the
United States had Influenced their feel
ings toward Spain in favor of repub-
licanism. Besides, many of the leading
Cubans were not of Spanish stock, but
were. descendants Of some thousands of
French Huguenots and English and

he shot himself to avoid capture. The
bullet passed from his chin through his
tongue and came out between his eye
brOws where the opening remains Wis
ible. He escaped from prison and wan
dered about the world until the new
war began, when he undertook to send
supplies from the United States to
Cuba. Since he has taken charge of
the operations in eastern Cuba he has
succeeded in clearing that section of
Spanish forces. Gen. Garcia belongs
to one of the best families of the Hol-
gin district. His ancestors have been
grand seniors of the province for gen.
erations His property Is gone and his
home destroyed.
Another of the exiles of the interim
between the wars is Gen. J. M. Rodri-
guez, a man of university education
and unusual cultivation. He has charge
of the operations in the western pro-
vinces. Gen. Rodriguez was badly
wounded in the first war, but, as he
says he Is still as good on horseback
as any man.
Gen. Jesus Rabi, one of the bravest
as we'll as the gentlest of the Cuban
soldiers, is not member of the old
planters set. He is a Carib, one of the
few remaining descendants of the
aborigines. He is an educated man
and gave up a comfortable living to
serve his country. Gen. Rabi is a vet
eran of the ten years war. as Is Gen.
Francisco Carillio, in command of the
troops in Santa Clara province. Join
ing the insurgents when he was mere
boy, and obliged to flee to the United
States, young Carrillio became an
American citizen. He was cared for
