 If we'd a bin Wise we'd a let some other Chrschun nashun a jumped in an freed the Cubins fun the OpreshIn of Spane Wed "a let some other Brave an Soft harted People, "a loos- cned tn Grip Of tn Tyrunt Wed a let Inglan' or tn Dutch give 'em Inde- pendence, fur it turns cut at We didn't have none to Spare ourselfs. We ain't had nuthin' but trubble ever sence we took the Burden off Spane's hans an se2 to her. Now you just watch us show you how to handle this here poor. oprest Child
 We got a good deal of Skin hooked off'n us while We was doin' the Filan- ! thropic Ack, but we sez, Never mine. we're Marters in q good coz, an a man can't be q Marter an live on Sham pane an Quale." We was all in fer freen' the Cubins. an then We was co- in to give 'em their island back an tell 'em to Gre an take us fer a Mod dle. When We got the Job done ,ur Reel Greaf comenst. We sent down some of our bes' sitizens, like Mir. Rathbun an Mister Medley. to sho' tn Cubins how to live Onnest an Useful
 
 boose to keep 'em fum comin' home. When the Cubins got in Control agin they turned Mister Rathbun an Mister Nicely out an sez.. Were graguates now. We're on to the Rite Way to :un q Onnest Guve1 rlent. We profited by Watchin' you an you can go back home. They ain't no more Opportuui- ties here n Il go round among us. We can Handle all tn Funs they is now"
 The Cubins they sez We want to Show the United States at we're grate- full to 'em. an we'll stablish Reciprocal trade Relashuns with 'em. well sell 'em Shuger an Segars with tn useless an expensive tarff took off if they'll do tn same by us"
 Some of tn fckes in tn United States sez. This is mos tco much of q Good Thing. Them Cubins wants to be lit tie too Naberly. l don't mine givin' q beggar a Dime if he's Hungry. but I don't like to have him feel so Grateful about it at he comes aroun' an wants to Bord with me-" Some O tn otherns sez, We give tn Cubins a start an We got to keep 'em runnin' awhile. tell you what we'll do, we'll give 'em Twenty per cent off Fer Cash. That's tn thing tn COuntrys a fitin' a bout now. The Beet Shuger people sez at tn Beet Shuger industry is in it's h. iuncy an they asts if the guverment is gcin' to take the sUckin' bottle away fum it's own off spring before it gets full an give it to tn Infunt RepubljX in Cuby. They sez Shuger is biZness an Cuby is pollytiX, an they asts which of these two twins is likely to c mos Useful to that part of tn Amer ican People at can't drink it's co;fy- without Shuger.
 The Cain Shuger Truss, it sez. Tt aint nuthin to us whether we have Ressiprossity CT not. We see some good pints about it. Them Cubins has got to have Help somehow, an if we give it to em this way it Il put a cog in tn wheels of tn Beet Shuger Mono ply. The Shuger buzness is gettin' mos too Numrous in this Country anyhow. The sooner we put the Beet Shuger fokes out O bizness tn Better it Il be fer all mankin'. They're per vertin' the gifs e Gawd. He made Beets fer cattle to Eat an here that onnacherl Moncply is mal>in shuger outen em fer Human beins.''
