Prosperity For Cuba.
Mr. Newlands stated that union
would mean free trade without the pay
/ ment Of American duty now paid on
/ Cuba sugar. and Cuba would annually
. receive S35.OO0.OO more for her sugar
| than at present All of this, he claimed,
would mean unexampled prosperity for
! Cuba, as well as the unparalleled dig
nifty and liberty of state.
AS for Porto Rico, Mr.. NeWlauds
said. his proposition involved no action
without her consent. She was too small
i'm territory for "A state. and could be ad-
mitted 20 the American union only as a
county or part of the state Of Cuba.
Her willingness could be tested by pop
ular vote If she preferred her present
position of dependency without consti-
tutonal privileges or rights she could
signify by popular vote, and thus the
doctrine Of consent of the governed
would be indicated. If she preferred
/ to become part of the American union,
through Incorporation with Cuba, emit
/ tied to citizenship i'm the United States
and TO vote for president, United States
senator's and congressman, she could so
declare.
Mr.. Teller Protests.
Mr.. Teller. in answer to Mr.. New
lands, said that while he was not pre-
pared TO enter into debate as to the
merits of the resolution, he wanted to
protest against the tenet that Cuba is
IN any manner a dependency of this
government and declared that such
contention would be set down by any
/ International lawyer as the height Of
dbsuTdity, that the passage of the
Platt amendment could not in any way
interfere with the sovereignty of Cuba
He said Cuba can today make a treaty
! with Great Britain AGAINST the inter-
ests Of the United States just as she
can treat with this government. and he
hoped that next time any one claimed
Cuoa TO be dependency of the United
states that senator would be prepared
to forufy his position with facts.
Mr. Hale declared the elaborate pic
Jure OF Cuban statehood TO be one Of
fancy and impractical in every feature
he made protest against it on the
ground that the agitation was injurious
10 Cuba at a time when that republic
IS trying to negotiate a loan to clear
Oft obligations which accrued i'm her
revolutionary period. and that any
scheme for a change of government
which is not part of the Cuban pro
gramme makes IL harder for her to con-
clrde her fiscal negotiations.
Mr. Carmack declared that the Gu
pans could take no alarm over Mr..
NeWlands' resolution, or that which he
could say on the subject They are
alarmed he said 1T is because the
United States is using the navy of this
country to assist a LOT of French adj
ventUrers in dismembering an Ameri-
can republic. It is such conduct on the
part Of our own government that makes
the Cubans and others suspicious Of
US"
