prosperity of the island is to be found in its
commercial relations with the United States and
the necessity of securing some reciprocal ar

the United States upon the principal Cuban
products.
The prosperity of Cuba depends upon finding
a market for her principal products. sugar and
tobacco. at a reasona bic profit Under existing

anticipated, she can find such market for her
sugar, ard to a great degree for her tobacco.

provisions of the United States tariff law the

market not sufficient to pay the duties.

DUTY TO THE CUBANs.
In reliance upon fair and generous treatment
by the United States, the Cuban planters have
made strenuous efforts to revive their great in
dustry. and have raised their product OF sugar
from 30S.G00 tons III 1899 to $4,000 tons in
1900 while the output for the present year is
estimated at something over S000 600 tons. In

free and Contented people to reward the sacrl-
flee of American lives and treasure through
which Cuba was set free If II fails we may
expect that the fields will again become waste
the mills will again be dsmantled. the great
body of laborers will be thrown out of en-
pi0ynent and that poverty and starvation. dls-
order and anarchy will ensue; that the charities
and the schools which have been building
up will find no money for their support and will

islands in the world will Of necessity he aban-

Cuba has acquiesced in our right to say that
she shall not put herself in the hands Of any
other power whatever her necessities. and IN
our right 70 insist upon the maintenance OF free
and orderly government throughout her limits
however Impoverished and desperate may be her
