"Give me liberty or give me DEATH"
Patrick Henry
PROVIDENCE, r. l., July %, 1898.
The splendid letter of J. Thomas
Hewin, of Boston, to the Richmond
PLANET. published in your edition Of
the 9th of July, is one OF the most inn
portant contributions to the literature
of the war between Papal ruled Spain
and Papal- ruled Imperial America, yet
published. 1t forces suddenly TO the
front an issue, which, if pressed bv the
friends of liberty is sure TO arouse not
only the whole country, but the civil
ized world.
THAT CUBAN PROCLAMATION
Concurrent with General Garcia's
manly resenting of Gen. Skaters pro-
ceedings in Cuba (under instructions
from Washington ard the Presidents
Cuban Proclamation (under prompt
ing from Archbishop Of Ireland) the
issue just raised cannot be suppressed
by all the irresponsible powers of pres
idential military dictatorship at
Washington, even when combined with
Jesuitism and supported by a venal
press covering basely under the lash
OF Papal censorship and the Catholic
coycott.
Ne better place to raise this issue
and fight it to the end than Richmond,
Virginia; no better journal for the
work than the leading Afro-American
paper of the United States, 1.-THE Rich
mond Planet" That mysterious thing
called the Hand of Providence" is ev-
idently in this matter, as it has been
in SO many other affairs in humanity
long struggle fer freedom against des-
potism, superstition and priest-craft.
a RIGID EXAMINATION DEMANDED.
The issue thus raised involves OF ne.
cessity a rigid examination into the
character of the American government
itself. The time has come TO institute
that examination. The United States
under this issue will be placed at the
bar of the civilized world.
Ia our government really Republic
or PIutocracy? Is America after al
A sham sailing under false colors?
This issue also involves the Republi
can Papal coalition, an epoch making
event in history as much so as the re.
formation under Luther, the Protestan
succession in England, the Declsra
tion of American Independence, or th'
French Revolution.
FoUL COALITION.
If the foul and damnable coalition
known as Hanna Irelandism, is allow
ed to stand, liberty in the New WorlG
is at an end and the struggle for liber
fv here must be at once transferred Il
Cuba and Canada. Free Cuba and tn
Republic of Canada being the counter
poise to the Papal imperialism whicl
now sword in hand controls every func
tion of the American Government
-.
commands all the controlling educa
tional and journalistic forces of tn
country.
QUESTION ANswRRED.
What are the facts
The central and important fact in thi
whole matter is that the revolution il
Cuba was from the beginning, an Afro
Cuban Socialist uprising against Span
ish tyranny, capitalistic greed ant
priestly rule and rapacity, the churcl

A REFERENCE TO MAcEo.

Maceo. the great Afro Cuban militia
ry leader was a full blooded Negro.
General Gomez is an Afro Cuban-a
quadroon. Nearly all the leaders and
fighters In the Cuban army of liberia
tion are men, who if in South Carolina,
! Mississippi or Louisiana. would be
made to ride in the Jim Crow Cars"
| and would be refused the right to oc-
cupy a private residence on Beacon
| St, in Boston. You see the proposed
Afro-Cuban Republic was two close to
our own Cuba and Armenia at the
south to suit either the northern or
southern plutocrats.
WHY coLoRRD TROOPS WE'RE NOT SENT
! EARLIER.
| Too close to smouldering volcano
| of brutal oppression, and consequently
of revolutionary discomfort. Proximi-
| ty dangerous And this is why Afro
American troops from the United
States, (immunes as we'll as fghters)
to the number of 100 900 men were not
promptly thrown into Cuba at the out
break of the war, TO Join forces with
Afro Cuban Revolutionists there.
The determination of such forces was
done to follow this joint occupation of
the Island, and the Afro-American in
vsders would also have renamed on
the island, and helped to govern it af-
the war of liberation was over.
CALLING LOUDLY NOW.
However, General Shafter is already
calling aloud for colored troops and his
call is destined to become louder and
louder.
Yellow jack is on the side of the
cause of humanity this time. In the
mean while Garcia and Gomez may as
sert their self-respect and make the
Cuban army of liberation the nucleus
of one of the most startling and drs-
matte incidents in human history.
And this is just what Hewin's letter
to The Planet is leading up to, In my
opinion nothing can avert this "dra-
matte incident" with such intellects as
Hewin's aroused and on the alert, and
to which special attention will be Civ
en- further along in this letter.
A TIMELY CoMPARIsoN.
1t is important to remember that the
Cuban leaders were fighting for the
practical realization in Cuba OF those
sublime liberty ideals proclaimed by
J the British American coIonists of l776
to a world in chains at the foot OF
kings, parliaments, aUtocratic judges,
mobiles, soldiers and priests.
Those sublime liberty ideals were
! overthrown by the Federal Imperial.

HOW WHITE scoUNDRELs COMMIT CRIMES.
AS to our own Cuba, any white
scoundrel who wants to commit Sc
cret crime in the south can do SO with
comparative immunity and impunity.
All he has to do is to burn a piece of
cork and blacken mis- face, and then go
ahead. Rape, murder, arson,-it is inn
material which.
He can, after the crime. lead a mob
and seize the first Negro who comes
along and charge him with the crime.
After the black scaDe-goat is done for,
announces that she confessed" Then
call a meeting of the best citizens to
deplore the sad event. Follow this up
by an editorial paragraph in tha Bcs-
ton Herald, that the editors are not
surprised at the southern mode of
dealing with BLACK fiends" and the
perform ance is complete.
HARLor's PRIVILEGE.
Any professional white harlot at the
south can make local heroine of her
self, and regain social recognition by
accusing what is called ga black fiend"
with assault. and some innocent and
helpless Negro is forthwith burned
alive, the harlot applying the torch
And all this upon the unsupported ac-
cusation of woman whose oath
would not be taken by an intelligent
unbiased jury in any ordinary action
OF law. On such law, the victim also
"confesses" there is 'deep regret"
from the "best citizens" and such
nothern papers as the Boston Herald
are promptly on hand to apologize for
and condone the crime.
TO KEEP THE SOUTH SOLID.
1t is perfectly well known that what
is known as the "Nigger Racket" is a
systematic game in southern politics
to keep the south ''solid" for Tammany
Hall, which is only another name for
Holy Pope" in American affairs. So
it is all along the line.
Speaking of gods in this connection
it only remains to say that McKinley's 3
God "besting" Spein's God at Manila
and Santiago, simply serves to bring
out in strong relief the fact that ac-
cording to strict orthodox superstition
the faithful" of the Roman Catholic
gang can plausibly claim that the
