CUBAN REBELS APPEAL
TELL AMERICANS THEY WANT AN
OPEN FIELD.
SETTLE. THEIR OWN FIGHT
Present Their Case to Americans,
who Believe in the Liberties
Of All Peoples"

Havana-A correspondent with the
Insurgents in Santa Clara province
has received by courier from General
Guzman the following:
Headquarters in the Field, Central
Andrieta Plantation, Scar Cruces, San
Ia Clara Province.-To the American
People: Difficulties have arisen among
among us-questions of lierty and law,
or of peace. We do not ask for SYM
patty; we ask only an open field, that
we may settle with Cubans and for
Cubans the issues that we have joined.
There has come time in the his
tory of this republic when the only
way to secure a permanent and right
eous peace and safe guaranteed con-
stitutional liberty is by war. Under the
empty name of republic the shackles
of the overthrown Spanish dominion
have again been imposed upon us. Our
constitution has been cast aside with
contemptuous egotism, the royal laws
of the ancient regime have been re-
viyed and issued to us with the very
forms and words of the royal Spanish
decree. Absolutism was again fasten-
ing itself upon Cuba, and in the more
dangerous guise of formulas of a re-
publican system that was but the shell
of democratic ideals.
ut has become necessary to resort
to arms-not for war if it can possibly
be avoided, but as demonstration be-
l., hot q
spirit that for a century has fought
against royal oppression still endures
and will suffer again the hardships OF
campaigns rather than yield the fruits
of hard won liberties. By vast ma
jority Cuba is with us.
"If the present administration in
Havana so chooses it will be war no
longer.
Shall we be tricked by commission
ers from Palma and armistices whose
authority and validity he then denies
THE intervention by the United
States we do not wish. This is our
own Cuban question; question OF our
rights and liberties that We ourselves
must settle. And in considering the
question we ask consideration of the
fact that it is one fraught with more
consequences to Cuba than of momen-
tary commercial loss or gain.
THE rights and properties of Ameri-
cans will be respected by our forces.
THAT all in Cuba will suffer as a
result of the depression due to war
is unfortunate and inevitable, but it
is the Cubans, our countrymen, who
will suffer most, and with their pat
riotism they are gladly accepting the
sacrifice; for out of it will emerge the
former rights and liberties of consti-
tutional government.
ITO those Americans who believe in
the liberties of all peoples and that
right and justice should triumph, even
over peace, we present our case and
ask their sympathy"

The raising of the Japanese battle
ship Mikasa, which was sunk at Sa-
sebo last September after an explo.
sion, not only gratifies a natural SEN
timent, but may help to solve mys-
terry. The Mikasa was Admiral Togo's
flagship in the famous battle in which
the Russian fleet was practically
wiped out of existence, was in the
thick of the fight and sustained the
heaviest loss of any vessel on that
side. The accident which caused her
to sink was greatly deplored by the
Japanese, who will rejoice that she is
once more afloat, and doubtless there
will be careful inquiry as to the
cause of the explosion, which sent her
to the bottom and resulted in the
death of several hundred men.

MAINE ELECTION RESULTS.
Cobb (Rep.) Reelected Governor by
Reduced Majority.

Augusta, Me.-The much-talked of
Sturgis liquor law raised havoc in the
Maine election, Governor Cobb, repub-
lican, being re-electd by from 1000 to
10000, as against nearly $4,000 plu-
rality two years ago.
Nearly all the cities In the state
went democratic, and One city IN Pen
obscot county for the first time in its
history. Four of the counties that
went into the democratic camp were
Cumberland, Knox, Androscoggin and
Kennebec, the last for the first time in
it's history. N
All four of the republican congress
men of Maine are undoubtedly re-
elected, although by reduced MAORI
ties.
Congressman Littlefield, against
whom warfare was waged by Presi-
dent Gompers of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, will win out by from
1000 to 1900. Two years ago his
plurality was 1891.
Not for many gears have the demo-
cratic voters been SO aroused from
their slumbers. Seven of the thirty
one senators and sixty of the ISL rep
resentatives in the legislature will be
democratic.

OHIO REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
Dick Retains Leadership and Foraker
Makes Hot Speech.

Dayton, O-The victory of Senator
Dick in securing a reelection to the
state leadership, or, rather to
the craftsmanship of the state ex-
ecutive committee, by the decisive
vote of IA to Z, was second in interest
in the discussions to a sensational
speech of Senator Foraker before the
republican state convention. Com
ing after the address by Tempo
rary Chairman Herrick, and given
with all the vim and vigor for which
the senior senator from Ohio is ia
nous, this speech aroused the dele
gates to a high pitch. Its probable
effect on matters to be decided by the
convention, and the possibility of an
answer from Congressman Burton,
were thoroughly gone over.
