SOME OF the republican Congress
men who have just returned from ny
Ing trip to Cuba, say that while the
spauisrds there are we'll disposed to-
ward this country, the Cubsns are not
but that the latter are "too cowardly to
fight" But it was to give those natives
who are too cowardly fight their free
dom, that the United States went to Q
war with Spain that has already COST
the taxpayers OF this country about Q
billion of dollars. But if there had
been no such war, there would have
been no war contracts, no franchises
no monopolies, nor any other schemes
for taking money ont of the pockets Of
the many poor people of this country
and putting it into those of q few rich
sharpers. The Spanish war was q le-
climate result o. the new American
commercial spirit, and that spirit is
still spreading and has most all Ameri'
cans for it own.

Mr.. MORGAN and other U. ;. Sena'
tors may consult with the President and
the S .cretary of War as frequent as they
choose about the proposed Nicaragua
canal scheme, but the reasonable people
of all nations do not believe that the
other commercial countries OF the
world will ever agree to allow the
United States to have supreme control
of any interocesn canal through Central
America. Their interests are TOO
grea. TO admit of any such monopoly,
aud 1t would only be natural for them
to combine in order to prevent it. The
