ton in cuba, General Gomez said:
Matters here have a serious aspect. Ihls

content with the Americans. is due to the
PIatt amendment. That ill-advised pro-
ceeding has wounded the sentiment of Gu

such unreasonable hav always pro-

This demand, thrown as a challenge in
the face of Cuba by a powerful nation. will
cause deep moral perturbation. People

to defend the principle Of liberty.

Spain or OF love Of liberty? The United
