Baptist Minister Cries Out Against
the Cruelties OF Spain.

KANSAS CITY, March 7.-Rev. Steven
A. Northrop. of the First Baptist church,
in a prelude to his sermon, talked strong
~ in favor Of war, saying:
II cannot help but feel that war Is In
evitable. but humanity is a larger word
than America. These dogs OF war ought
to be driven back TO their kennels, not
merely because of this Maine disaster. but
because OF liherty-lovng, body-starying
Cuba. Is 1t not about time that Uncle
Sam clutched the throat of Spain and bid
her Hands OFF, Think of II, my people:
We nave allowed this country OF hateful
name to starva 10000 men, women and
children right at our very doors. am
amazed that the civilized and Christian
lied nations would have not came TO her
help before this. The time has surely
come when the United States must not
keep silent. These bloodhoundS of histor,,

If the action Of president Mckinley
and of congress in declining to recog-
nize the so-called Cuban Republic as it
exists to-day, required any justification
it is to be found in the report of the
special correspondent OF the New York
Herald which was published in the
Pioneer Press, OF St. Paul, last week.
Therein it is shown that the Cuban in
surgents, or patriots, are woefully scat
tered and demoralized and that they
have not more than $500 men in the
field scattered in small bands. without
proper arms or adequate ammunition.
Also that not more than 10000 fighting
men could be placed in the field to CO.
operate with United States troops if
we furnished arms and supplies to
Gomez and his generals. It is. clearly
apparent from the correspondents re-
port that if the Spanish are to be
driven out of Cuba, the United States
troops must undertake the task, as it
would take a year or two to get the
Cuban insurgents into anything like
condition for the work. They are
apparently mere guerrillas and con-
Quoting an intermittent guerrilla war
fare: and it would be exceedingly un-
wise to have thrown the control and
administration of the affairs of the is
land into their hands without consult
ing the wishes of the people. There
can be no stable government in Cuba
unless it is established by the United
States on sound principles.
