The story is that Thomas w. Lawson

RACE RULE DOWN IN CUBA.

The negro question is having infu-
ence on Cuban politics. The great di-
mentions of the negro ingredient of
the population of the island is one of
the considerations which will make
trouble for the Cubans if they set up q
government of their own. This is one
of the issues which is frightening
thoughtful persons In the island. AS
an independent nation the color ques-
ton offers chance for serious embar-
rassment. AS part of the United
States, Cuba would not be affected by
by this issue. Annexation would send
in so mauy white men that they would
soon gain so great preponderance
that the race issue would disappear
There are so many reasons for annexa-
ton that the separatists are losing
grounds. Even Gomez has been re-
