"There are $4,000 men to DC paid in
the Cuban army. The amount we
have requested is $40,000O00, to he
turned over to us in either one or in
three payments. We will give, rs

Should the Government not care to
lend US that sum we are willing to
take one-third of it and later pay the

however, think we will receive the
amount in three payments. This,
however is not decided yet. The

said:
eve have pledged the people that
certain reforms shall be inaugurated 4;
that where salaries are excessive, they
shall be reduced that where offices
are unnecessary, they shall be abol-

of all the States affairs has been
promised. Let US 90 forward and
faithfully and fearlessly fulfil every
pledge, and keep every promise.
There should be officers enough in the

other awindler's $4,000 OF course
they had to go to town to draw up
the deed, and there the farmer is said
to have lost sight OF the bunco-work-
