A Farewell Poem.

A Farewell Poem.
BY REV HOWARD p. CROMWELL.
The time see
Has come for me,
To bid you all farewell.
But will you pray
That l ever may
The Gospel story tell?
II Is sad know
In this world below
From friends so dear to part,
But as the days go by
There comes a sigh
From many a saddened heart.
This is land Of signs
And oft said good-byes
Where sorrow will ever be known,
But when we meet
At our Savior's feet
1t will be love and Joy at home.
It's soon know
That must 60
From this people have learned to low,
shall bid you
A fond adieu
Hoping to meet you above.
Yet know
That some will 60

Unless they turn
And the Devil spurn,
For one will be taken and the other lef

For Eternity
That from you must part.
ask you now
Make me vow
BE true to God, give Him your heart.
Ihave preached to you here
With reverence and fear
In this circuit Of Delight,
have tried to do
As God bid me to
o, may your hearts keep right.
l ask that all
May on God call
Foy love that naught can sever.
That you be true
And His whole will do
And meet me beyond the river.
Watch and pray
Both night and day
Strive that the spirit be given,
For now we part
With saddened heart
Just hoping. to meet in Heaven
Once more I say
This solemn day
My fast and fond goodbye,
Pray evermore
His name adore
And meet me in the sky.

Washington, D. c., April 5-Sena-
tor Faulkner said this afternoon he
was now convinced the President was
determined on vigorous action and
that his message to Congress to-mor-
row would fully meet the demands of
the country for the freedom of Cuba,
and the termination of the war and
starvation on the island.
AS there seems to be no way for
us to settle the question but by armed,
intervention, and as the time has
plainly come to act" the Senator con-
tinued. Il am for whatever action may
be necessary and | think men of all
parties should stand united on that
proposition.
There is now no party question in
volved. We must all support the
President in his recommendations,
and l believe they will be clear, and
vigorous for armed intervention, with
out further delay.
There is a difference OF opinion as
to whether or not the President will
recommend The recognition of Cuban
independence. Whether he does so or
not, or whether or not Congress passes
resolutions recognizing independence,
is to my mind not worth quibbling
about. 1t is minor consideration.
The matter of first consideration with
US is intervention to stop the war and
starvation in Cuba
1t was suggested that unless the res
olutions passed by Congress left the
President no discretion, but directed
immediate
ARMED INTERVENTION.
he might take his own time about act
ing, postponing intervention for weeks
or even months.
"The resolutions passed by Con-
gress,' the Senator said, should be so
framed, and will he SO framed, ] be-
lieve, that the President will have no
choice but to intervene with all the
force at his command and at once. No
other course should be left open to
him, and | am convinced the President
intends to take no other course. I be-
lieve he will act with the greatest
gress directs him to do So"
Notwithstanding this confidence of
! the Senator in the Presidents inten
ton to act without delay, as soon as
Congress has spoken the belief re-
mains strong in some quarters here
that there will be weeks of waiting he
fore armed Intervention is undertaken
unless the resolutions Of Congress can
be so framed as to leave the President
no discretion in the matter Friends
of the administration do not conceal
their belief that the President will
take his own time about intervention
They expect the resolutions which
Congress will pass will leave to the
President discretion as to the time OF
| action. Indeed, they assert that no
resolutions which can be framed can
deprive the President Of the nreroga
tive of deciding when rho nronor ~.

reported providing for the recognition
OF Cuban independence. This faction
was composed of what is known as the
conservative element on the Republi-
can side of the Senate. The confer
ence was held in Senator Aldrich's
committee room, and among those
present were Senators Hanna, Plat
of Connecticut, Spooner, Hale, Fair
banks, and Aldrich. Senator Allison
A general purpose was expressed to
oppose the adoption of any report that
should recommend a recognition of
CUBAN INDEPENDENCE
and which did not inded confine itself
to the support of the Presidents rec
ommendation for Intervention only.
This position was taken because of
the generally expressed conviction
among the Senators present that in
case of war with Spain and the triumph
of the armies of the United States this
country should be left free to dispose
OF Cuba as she might see proper.
Many of them expressed dissatisfaction
with the present Cuban administration
and the opinion was given that the
recognition of independence at this
time would bring the United States to
/ the support of the present Cuban adj
ministration, and to guarantee its
bonds, giving to the Cuban junta a po-
sition of influence and power to which
it was not, in thei- opinion, entitled
Hence, a decision was reached to labor
with the committee on foreign rela-
lions not to report a resolution with a
double purpose and the intention was
expressed on the part of some to on
pose it's adoption if reported.
The prevailing opinion among Sena-
tors is that the committee will recede
from it's position for both independ-
ence and intervention, and report a
resolution in accordance with the
PRESIDENTS RECOMMENDATIO
certain. Of three members of the com
mittee seen, all classed as pro- Cubans,
/ Senator Frye announced himself salts
| fed with intervention: another. Sena-
tor Foraker, announced that he would
not favor the change; third, Senator
Davis, refused to commit himself
he would support the Presidents posi-
ton.
