that Spain should receive this au batan.

was improper. He held that no nation

to do a, would be to inflict great 'Was-.
ilea, cruelty and destitution upon large

parent States and colonies were those of
pareotaud child. W heu protection. sup

side there should be obedience and sub.

had arrived at manhood, and the colony

there was a di Serene. between an attempt

et revolution by a colony forming an lute-

on the part of a dietant, colony, and. re
marked the time had arrived to proclaim
this doctrine as one-vindicated alike • in
reason and justice. The allegation that
when a nation took possession:of a dis•
tent territory, and established a colony
there, such territory ;became part of
the nation equally with its former
possessions, was unsupported by
'reason or facts. The American col
ones of England, France and Spain
bed never been treated theoretically or
practically as intregal parts of those
empires. It wan a horrid mockery when
the Spanish Government affected to treat
Cuba as part of the kingdom of Spain,
when she denied her rights under the
Spanish constitution and treated her as
a mere possession, governed by the will
of a despodeCapsin General. Without
meaning to aasert that the United States
should Interfere by military force on be.
half of„.thiba, be would maintain that the
United States should not contribute
directly or indirectly to uphold the
power of Spain over . that Island;
Leaving ollt of view the question
whether the present condition of Cuban
affairs Justified our concession of bel
ligerent rights. It was sufficient that we
knew-that a considerable portion of the
Cubans were in arms to throw off the
Spanish yoke, and therefore, if we could
not aid one side, we ought net aid the
, - other. Ho then referred to the magni
tude of the contest in Cuba, and de
picted Its revolting incidents, asserting
that the war had been carried on with
murderous cruelty, in emulation of the
French Revolution, and indicated the
' Spanish character bad lost nothing of
the atrocious and satanic barbarism by
which it was diatlnguieluei In the war in
the Netherlands. Our silence was in
marked contrast with our former pro
fessions of sympathy with people . strug
gling for liberty and national rights.
Moreover, the Cuban insurgents were
struggling to abolish slavery, while
Spain would perpetuate the institution
In the Island.
VlORillg the Cuban question from an
American standpoint, he said Cuba was
an entirely included in what was . called
the "Monroe doctrine," as. though she
formed part of the main land, and the
possession of Cuba by Spain being hostile
to our policy, its retention by that power
should depend upon Spanish power and
resources exclusively. Her continued
possession was to be regarded by us in
the light of sufferance or toleration, rath

ADDRESS TO EXPLORED PEOPLE
The National Executive Committee,
George T. Dawning, President, and T. G.
Borhedes, Secretary, have issued the fol.
lowing address to the colored people of
the United States:
Your National Executive . Committee,
created by you In National Convention
assembled, January 13, 1989, to urge leg
islation looking to the educational, ma
terial and political interests of the col
ored people of the nation, deem that
they have .at length arrived. in the pro.
greet of their efforts, at the probable
political consummation of their hopes,
in so far as the organic law of the
Republic is concerned. They recog
nize that desired result in the an
ticipated announcement of the refl.
dcauon -of the Fifteenth Amendment
to the Federal Constitution, which for
' bids any aoridgement of the right of
suffrage ou account of race, color or pre
' vioua condition of any cittzsn 'of the.
''United Staten. They feel that title
Amendment should, In the estimation of
colored men, transcend in importance
even the revered declaration of our
National independence. inasmuch as it
to a practical affirmation of the rights of
men, while the other was but a theoretical
entinciatlon thereof.
Therefore It has beeri. determined as
fitting for your Committee to advise
the general assembling of the colored
people of every State and Territory
throughout the length and breadth of
the lend, whenever said Fifteenth
Amendment shall have been officially
announced as retitled, in .order to offer
up prayer and thanksgiving to Almighty
God, and in all proper ways to assure
the world of our realization and appre
ciation of the righteous set of oar fellow
ceuntrymen, in constitutionally securing
to tie that which has always been
our pug due, but unjustly withheld.
Your Committee does hereby thus
advise, and token 'occasion at the same
time to - declare, In your name, that this
just act of the American people will be
held at Its full estimate by those whom
it enfranchizes; that they will make such
use of their rights as • will add to the
honor and material intereins of the
country, and that. In the possession of
rights, along with others previously ate
cured, they will feel they really have a
country to - respect and defend aa well es
their fellow countrymen, towarde whom
they can cherish the most affectionate
regard.

A message ban reached' the War De
partment, signed by the Chief& of Arick
areas, Groaventree and Mandarin Indian
tribes, directed to General Hancock, in
which they rotate their grievances an/
wants. They state that notwithstanding
the trestles they have made with the
Government and the friendliness they
entertain for the whites, they have never
been assisted by their Great Father to
protect themseivesagainat their °herniae,
the Sioux, with whom they could be
friends if they won IdJoin them against the
whites, which they often had been asked
to do. They also state that the Sioux are
supplied with plenty of fat, bacon, beef,
bread, sugar and coffee, while they have
to fight on empty stomachs; and not only
are the Sioux fed, but they ride on horses
and mules stolen from their Great Fath
er's people. All of which leads the coin
plainante to believe their condition would
be better i f they would imitate their
enemies or even Join them and war neon
the whites. They also complain that
their lands at Painted River. about twen-
. .
ty miles above Heart River, had been
given to the Sioux. who derive all the
advantages which should be theirs.
With regard to giving away their lands
at Painted woods, lien. Stanley, com
manding the Middle Division of Dakota
Territory, writes the atatement la a fool
ish one; put Into their heads by wood
choppers, whom he had been trying to
dislodge. Thoy were - speculating and
cutting down the beat timber on the
river, and besides are unlicensed traders,
each of them keeping good. to trade with
the Indians.
In regard to the large reservation • pro
posed by Gresventres, Mandan and
Arlckareea, It covers ground conceded to
the Sioux as bunting grounds by treaty
or July. As the hostile Sioux are at
this time almost all on the lands biota-
ded In the proposed reservation, It would
take the three tribes named, backed by
two regiments or troops, to put them In
possession.
