CLEVELAND URGES
CONCESSIONS TO CUBA
Former President Says the Opposi-
tiOn Arguments Are Falla-
cious and Misleading.

York. Pa, Jan. IA. b. Farquehar of
this city. the head Of the Farquehar Agri-
cultural Works. and prominent in national
Democratic Affairs. has received the follow
ing letter from ex-President Cleveland In
reply to one sent him by Mr.. Farquehar.
relative to the relations Of the United
States with Cuba:
"Westland Princeton, N. J.. Jan. IL
My Dear Mr.. Farquhar: only have s,Iq-
ciently recovered from my illness to be
about little. and ride out in . limited
way. Tomorrow hope to start on = trip
to the South. In the expectation that my
health will be largely reinstated by the
outing.
II received your letter yesterday. and
was much impressed by the manner In
which you discuss our relations and our
duty to Cuba
"AfGuments Are Fallacioas."
The arguments used In opposition to tho
tariff concessions she implores. based upon
our material interests. are fallacious, mis-
taken and misleading. while their source
and the agencies Of the propagation and
spread cannot fail to be recognized by
every honest, patriotic citizen with shame
and humiliation.
''It seems to me. however, that this sub
Ject involves consideration OF morality ana
conscience higher and moro commanding
than all others.
"And Yet Con1ress Waits."
"The obligations arising from these con-
siderations cannot be better or more forci-
bly, defined than was done by President
Roosevelt in his message to Congress. nor
better emphasized than has been done BY
Secretary Root, and yet Congress- waits.
while we occasionally hear Of concessions
which rich sugar interests might approve
In behalf Of trembling Cuba.
II do not believe that nations. any moro
than individuals, can safely violate the
rules of honesty and fair dealing.
Until there is no escape. therefore,. I
will not believe that. with all our fine words
and lofty professions. our embrace Of Cuba
means tho contagion Of deadly disease.
Yours very truly.
