Our Cuban friends can make
trouble if they cannot fight and now
that the Spaniards are ont of the
way they refuse to lay down their
arms at the demand of our govern
mcnt. Their sense OF honor seems
to be equal to all occasions. They
were of very little use to the Ameri-
can forces during the brief war with
Spain, prctcrrng the shady side OF
a tree to active participation in the
fighting, but their pride now pre-
vents them from surrendering the
guns for winch they had so little
use. A little display of force may
be necessary to bring them to cor
rect understanding of the fitness of
things, but it will be unfortunate if
an open rupture occurs between the
Americans and the people they
fought to libcratc from Spanish
rule.
