0zaeity ana oppression. Aid our best
hopes 81 out for the full success of
their determined contest for liberty.
The government of Spain having lost
control OF Cuba, and being unable to
protect the property or lives of resident
American citizens, or to comply with
its treaty or Obligations, we believe that
the government of the United States
should actively use it's influence and
good offices to restore peace and give
Independence to the island. "-( Cuban
plank in the Republican platform,
adopted by the Republican national
convention at St. Louis, June IL, lSQ6.)
d. Not Seek Advantage in Any Way.
III Q people of the United States do
not seek to acquire title to Cuba, nor do
they SEEK So gain advantage an any
way, directly or indirectly, OF any ma.
ton, by 1eason of this barbarism called
war. Tney do not complain of our loss
OF trade with Cuba, and have patiently
borne the assault on the health OF the
people by the filth OF Spanish rule in
Cuba. They seek no redress for loss of
business or health or money. They
have patiently waited, not wishing to
interfere with the affairs of other na.
tions, until the stencil OH our very Dor.
ders has passed endurance, and the bar.
barous situation in Cuba has become a
STAN upon our continent, and blot upon
our Christian civilization. The people
Of the United States, demanding no
personal profit, having no fear and
seeking no favor, clear and conscious as
to the justice of our position, do in the
presence Of the civilized nations of the
world, and in the name of justice and
liberty, demand that the so called war
in Cuba must cease.

British Columbia produced about 300 600 tons
OF coal last year. and sent three fourths Of It to
San Francisco. England distributes enormous
quantities OF coal all over the world however,
many OF her vessels carrying this cargo on the
outward voyage. and bringing home something
else. Coal serves both ballast and as q
marketable commodity Ships going to Cafor-
MIA FOR wheat and other merchandise often carry
coal. Japan once sent 4 little coal across to
this country. but the quality did not please and
the matter has not been followed up. doubt
II any Australian coal ever gets into San Fran
cisco.
Hawaii. suspect gets her coal supply most
ly from England. The Philippines would prob
ably draw from three sources-New South
Wales Japan and England And It would not
be safe to venture guess as to the proportions
in which those different countries contribute
1t is safe to say though. that regular ship
mcnt from British Columbia across the ocean
occurs. and that larger quantity goes to the
Pacific from England than one might suppose"

lively small. 1t has always bothered the sta.
tisticlans more to obtain definite figures from
that country than any other in respect to thu
production u coal. 1t is doubtful if China
mines over l.OD0OO or 100000 tons annually
at the present time. Her methods are exceed
