NEGROES IN THE ARMY.
The preponderance of the negro element In
the army has led to certain jealousies and APP
prehensons In the eastern half Of Cuba. as have
already stated Probably at the first resort to
popular sovereignty an attempt would be made
In Santiago Province to introduce the color line
into politics, and the administration or that
province would fall into the hands OF one OF the
negro generals who took to the woods three
years ago when the insurrection was pro-
claimed. But the experiment Of provincial gov
eminent by popular suffrage Is. as most we'll
wishers OF Cuba hope, still several years distant
and In the mean time, with the dispersion OF the
Cuban army. more wholesome divisions than
those Of race and color are likely to develop
In the rest Of Cuba, where the black race Is OF
more mixed blood and far less aggressive tenn
per. no color line In life or politics can be sue
cessfully drawn. There no conditions which
force upon the black race political or social
solidarity. Colored leaders have a part in every
political enterprise. Some uphold the policies Of
the now defunct Assembly; some are pledged to
the political fortunes OF General Gomez: some are
prominent in the organization Of the new Ma
t.ona Cuban party in this city. Segregation Of
the negro vote, when popular suffrage comes. 10
therefore a rather shadowy probability.
Only one influence would be powerful enough
to bring about such result; and that influence
would be the propagation here OF that spirit OF
racial intolerance which has made a burlesque
and fiction Of the rights presumably bestowed
by Congress on the black man as the corollary
of his elevation to citizenship in the United
States. Such spirit foreign TO Spanish-Ameri-
can traditions and customs. should be checked
