CUBA'S OBLIGATION.

A most significant article is con
tributed to the May Worlds Work
just at this time when the Cuban Com
missioners have arrived in Washington
to confer with the President. Senate,
o. H. Plat of Connecticut, who az
chairman of the Senate Committee on
Relations in Cuba, and author of the
much discussed Platt Amendment, is
the man most prominently connected
with tie subject, in this article sums
up the whole matter OF Cuban relations,
and outlines the conclusion to which
it must lead. "The key note Of the
matter is" he says, "that Cuba shall be
and remain independent under staple
republican government, which the
United States will assist in maintain
ing against foreign aggression or to
maintain peace and order at homo if
the turbulence of the past shall reap
pear" But the t-ange attitude OF
the Cubans which, at present, has led
to the Commissions trip to Washing
ton, is that, as a matter of course,
''tney will have right TO call upon the
United States for their defense, but
will not agree in advance that we may
assert that right. The
United States asks for nothing mole
than this, but it recognizes it's obl1ga-
ton and insists upon its right to see
that such results are to be permanently
secured"
