ing their wrecked society and con-

and superstitiOus negroes was one
to appall the stoutest hearts.
'Instead of the co operation of

South, as she staggered to her
feet, received full in the face q
blow of vengeance so terrible, so
cruel, and so pitiless that it sur
passes belief.
"Such a blow on a disarmed

but for the tragedy of Lincoln's
assassination and the frenzy of in

ment blinded the North.
Upon the assassination of the
President, the greatest and mean
est man who ever dominated our
national life became the dictator
of the republic.
"This man, Thaddeus Stevens,
was beyond any doubt the most
powerful parliamentary leader in
our history. A fanatic, a mis-
anthrope imbittered by physical
defOrmity, a born revolutionist
endowed with the audaclty of tile
devil, he became in a moment the
bold and INSCRIPTIONS master of
a crazed nation.
"Twenty-eight years before this
crisis he had become infatuated
with a mulatto woman of extraor-
binary animal beauty, whom he
had separated from her husband.
This yellow vampire fattened on
him during his public career,

Prior to his election as president Of
Cuba in 1901 he had lived quietly in the
United States for a period of about
twenty years, earning a livelihood at
teaching and farming in Central Val
ley, n. Y, but his life has not al
ways been peaceful. He was born at
Bayamo, Cuba, in 1886, and in 1861
soon after he had completed his educat
ton in Spain at the University of Sc
vile, he took the field at the head of a
large company of patriots who were
anxious to throw off the Spanish yoke.
He fought throughout the long strug-
gle known as the Ten Years war and
was president of the provisional gov
eminent organized by the revolutionists
at that time. The Spaniards captured
him in 1877. He refused to take the
oath of allegiance, saying that he pre-
ferred to die as president of the Cuban
republic. The Spaniards released him
year later and he went to Honduras,
where he became postmaster general.
Then came his stay in the United
States. When his countrymen again
began fighting for freedom from Spain
he became the delegate of the Cuban
junta to this country and in that ca
pacity performed most valuable serv-
ice. When the United States withdrew
from Cuba in 1901 and the new repub-
lie was duly established he became its
