THE CUBAN CASE.

THE CUBAN CASE.
The political problem of Cuba has
been solved. The government Of inter
vention, which has administered affairs
here for the last three years and half
with such distinguished fidelity and
success, is on the eve Of resigning its
trust. The new government, about to
be installed, brings with it the assur-
ance that peace will. continue and that
integrity will characterize it's admins
tration 1t will receive at the hands of
the American trustees simple and
workable system Of civil government,
with revenues ample for immediate re-
quirements.
The municipalities of the Island have
been reorganized and made self-depend-
ent their police protection gives secu-
rity; their educational facilities, al
though new to them, are practical,
popular and growing, and their santa
tion is effective, if not yet complete.
Contagious diseases, including the
dreaded yellow fever, have been en-
tirely eliminated. Hospitals are ready
to receive the sick and afflicted, and
charitable institutions are provided for
the poor and helpless. For the Island
itself there is the customs revenue SER
vice, scrupulously administered, and
post offices and post roads have become
general. The entire machinery of
modern, well. organized state is today in
free and effective operation. The
American administrators, directed by
the tireless energy of the Military Gov
ernor, have done their part well, having
earned the approval of their govern
ment, the gratitude of this people, and
the commendation of the civilized
world.
But the primary cause which led to
war, to Cuban independence, and to in
tervention by the United States is not
removed. Good government has ameli-
Grated the conditions, but it cannot
change them. The best government
cannot long be maintained here, if the
present economic conditions shall con-
tinue. There would have been no up
rising in 1894 if Cuba had not been de-
pendent then, as she is now, upon the
production of sugar; and economically
her people are no better off today than
they were then. To leave her now, as
it is proposed, without relief, but still
the victim Of the worlds sugar tariffs
and crushed by the appalling misfort-
unes which the last ten years have
heaped upon her, would be to cast to
The Conservative, 1902-03-27

Americans have created. American in
tervention cannot stop at this point.
Good sense, business foresight, fair
play and common honesty will all unite
to prevent it. 1t is not the practice of
the United States to let good work 20
backward, to miss opportunities for
business advancement, to ignore her OBJ
legations, or to inf1ict needless suffering
upon any people. And she would be
guilty of all these if she withdrew from
Cuba at this time without securing to
the Island industrial as we'll as political
freedom.
The United States has wisely exacted
that this government shall not assume
nor contract any public debt, to pay the
interest upon which and to make reas-
enable sinking fund provisions for the
ultimate discharge of which, the ordl-
nary revenues of the Island, after de-
Quoting the current expenses of the
government, shall be inadequate" but
her tariff laws make it absolutely i'm
possible for this government to meet the
ordinary expenses of the modest system,
established by the interventors, let alone
the obligations that will necessarily
have to be met in carrying out the
further exactions of the American gov
ernment as prescribed by the Platt reso-
lutions. This government shall guar
antee by adequate sanitation the free
dom from pestilenoe of the southern
coast of the United States. Adequate
sanitation does not merely involve the
outlay of millions for the sewering of
every considerable town in the Island,
but also the constant expenditure of
millions in surface draining, hospital
main tenance, scientific investigations
and protective measures against epe-
demic from the outside.
This government is properly enjoined
to maintain internal peace and to safe
guard the property rights which Span
ish and French, German and English, as
we'll as American investors have already
secured in the island but who can in
sure peace and who can protect property
when the people are in enforced idle
ness and hunger is their portion? Never
theless it is guaranteed in the constitu-
tion itself, put there at the behest of
the government of Intervention, and
this government must fulfill the pledge
at the peril of being swept aside by a
second intervention. Far better that the
present admirable administration should
be continued than that such contigen-
cy should be allowed to rise.
1t is also written in the constitution
that Cuba shall grant the American gov
ernment suitable sites, to be selected by
the latter, for coaling stations, as bases
for naval operations in defense of the
The Conservative, 1902-03-27

United States will equip and defend
these stations with munitions of war
far more powerful than anything that
this island can hope to acquire. Liter
ally, therefore, for all the purposes of
war, this island and it's nascent govern
ment will be part and parcel of the pow
erful republic which rightfully insists
upon debating the policy Of America
for Americans" Cuba is grateful for
the strong arm thus thrown about her;
but she contends, justly and insistently,
that an imposed protectorate carries
with itself inevitably the moral abliga-
ton to insure to the weaker nation the
means of carrying out her part of the
enforced contract. 1t is idle to think or
speak of Cuba as free national entity.
Cuba will no more be allowed to make a
contract or treaty with another ma
tion, excepting the United States, than
Florida or New York. She will no
more have the right to declare war than
Massachusetts,. Cuba is quasi-mili-
tary department. of the United States
and her position will never be less re-
stricted. To treat her, therefore, as all
alien nation and keep up against her
commerce tariff wall as high as against
that of the most dangerous commercial
rival, would be course on the part of
the United States as singular as it
would be reprehensible.
There are but two relations between
nations. One is the relation of war ,and
the other that of peace, which latter in
the twentieth century means commerce.
Cuba has been taken willingly or un-
willingly, into union for war by the
United States, and now she asks to be
taken into union for commerce. She
makes this appeal, not in the attitude
of beggar, but as one who has a pro
quid quo to offer. 1t is not free trade
that she asks, for the necessities of the
island demand that custom houses shall
remain; but reduction in the tariff
rates of the United States upon her pro-
ducts, offering in exchange a similar re-
duction or differential in her duties upon
imports from the United States. It
means an even exchange. Cuba will
pay dollar for dollar for many years, and
the profits will be mutual. A golden
opportunity for investments, not less
than $50, 900, 900 annually, will be the
immediate share of the United States,
while Cuba's portion will be the full de-
velopment of her unlimited resources.
The sixty or seventy millions worth
of necessities which the 800, 900 people
of the Island have been buying during
each of the last three years, and which
the United States might have supplied
for the asking, are merely the first poor
offerings of a. war-stricken people.

TWO MEN DROWN
In Lake Bemidii. Both Expert.
enced River Men.

About seven o'clock Saturday
morning, William Taylor and
John McGinty, left the city
boat house for the northern end
Of the lake, Bemidj, where they
were sent by their foreman B..
F. Bishop to gather a broken
boom of logs belonging to Hatch
er & Lynch.
They had passed Diamond
Point far to the east when their
boat capsized. Mrs. Ole Larson,
whose home is a short distance
beyond the ''polnt" on the west
shore, saw the accident, and says
lit was due to the men attempting.
to change places in the boat, She
saw one man climb upon the over
turned boat and attempt to pull
up the other, when both fell into
the water. After that she saw
only one man clinging to the
boat, who for a long time con-
tinued to cry for help.
Freeman Doud was in bed
when he heard the yelling. With
the help of II. A. Beach, an old
gentleman from Wadena who
was there visiting, he got his
boat into the lake, but as it was
untrustworthy, he rowed out
alone, Had e. L. Naylor, who
arrived a few minutes later, also
been in the boat, the lake would
have been cheated of one victim
But as it was, by the time Doud
reached the drowning man, the
| latter was too weak to draw him
self into the boat, and the wind
and waves were SO strong that
Doud had to hold fast to his oars
to keep his own boat fr ,tal upset.

AS SOON as the news reached
town a dozen boats were dis
patched to find the bodies. At
the time no one knew who the
men were and as several parties
were on the lake that morning
| m any a home was in widest ag-
ony Of suspense. 1t was only by
the recovery of the boat, which
had drifted to the eastern shore,
that the identity of the drowned
men was verified. ssF#
Both men were industrious,
temperate woodsmen, who have
made Bemidji their home for the
past two years. Taylor was 35
years old, and McGinty, %; both
unmarried. Both have lived in
Brainerd. A young brother of
McGinty has been located in Two
Harbors, where he is call boy in
the railroad yards. Both victims
are experienced river men, and
their death must be due to the
cold water rather than to fright
or inexperience. "
