THE CUBA REVIEW 15 THE PRESS OF THE UNITED STATES. From Utah. The Salt Lake City Tele- gram hopes Cuba will never again need outside assistance. It says: "We want no Latin states in our republic; we have plenty of trouble, plenty of vexatious problems to solve, and surely do not de- side to add to them. Godspeed Gomez, and give to his oeople a disposition to sustain him. The Providence (R. I.) Journal calls it "Cuba's easy money producer." Nev- ertheless it says that: "Judged even by the ordinary formulae of gambling the profit in this game seems exces- sive; especially as the government is relieved of all risk. The Cubans are taxed thirty-three and one-third per cent, for the privilege of playing the game. Thus the lottery must be almost as heavy a burden on the Cubans as the tariff is on the Ultimate Consumer in our own country." Uncle Sam is mulish, says the Boston Post, in his attitude toward the raising of the Maine in Havana harbor. "For ten years a hulk has obstructed naviga- tion in the harbor of the capital of a sister republic. Neither courtesy nor law requires Cuba to longer await action on the part of the United States in abatement of this nuisance. The Ameri- can government cannot decently oppose action in that direction. Its attitude is that of the dog in the manger." Cuba makes a good truck garden for the United States, and some of our best fruit comes from "the island empire."— Norwich (Conn.) Bulletin.
