In the West Indies the question Of
annexation is discussed and fought
over most fiercely. Among the Cubans
the progressive mercantile, commercial
and property owning classes are all for
annexation. They know the stability
that would come, and which never can
be hoped for under the present system
of government. Jamaica is clamoring
for annexation, and most of the small
er islands are clamoring for the Amer
lean form of government. The COM
mercial depression throughout the vari-
Gus groups is pitiful. The time will
come when the caribbean Sea and the
Gulf of Mexico will be an American
