Senator M'Cumber has been mis represented recently in several north western newspapers. A statement has been disseminated that Senator Mc Cumbcr spoke and voted against the Cuban treaty. The contrary is the case. The senator made a strong speech on the treaty, giving all of the facta and arguments in favor of, as well as against it, and conluded his speech with the reasons why he should vote for th? bill,' arid «e "did vo^e for the bill. The concludiqg- remarks of his.- speech indi cate the profundity of thought given, to the important" subject. Senator Mc Cumber said: "Mr. President, the real benefit which one country obtains in its trade with., another is not so. much the volume *of trade, as it is the surplus in its favor. The things which we trade to another country are for the most of a perish able character. We sell abroad $600, 000,000 worth of breadstuffs and fabrics from our factories, and they are gone in a year. We receive in sugar, to bacco and other produce $600,000,000 worth of balance of trade which is paid in gold dollars and we have something that is good today, good tomorrow, and good for a hundred years from today. What has given us all our great pros perity in the last five years? Has it been so much the volume of trade be tween the states or the great volume between this country and other coun tries? No, it has been in the vast vol ume of the balance of that trade. "Give us $600.000,000—ogld dollars—in balance of trade on this side from the old country landed on this side of the water, and continue that for five years and we have $2,500,000,000 in substan tial property, property that remains here, and that is the character of trade for which we shall always look. That,' I repeat, is what has given us the great prosperity in the last five years. While certain proportion of that vast sum of money of course, has-gone back In the payment of interest on bonds, and has been expended by tourists in the old country, a great portion of it has remained here. "But there is another side to thjps question, and a side which sinks deep into the hearts and conscience of every American citizen who takes pride in his country beyond the mere question of financial gain or loss, and that is the honor of the country-itself. We receiv ed from Cuba when she adopted her constitution certain concessions. She not only made herself perpetually the ward of this country, not only was this country made her guardian for all time, not merely over her external but her internal relations, but she also con tracted to give us a coaling station, placing herself entirely at our mercy "Cuba knew of our Monroe doctrine. She knew that it protected her against all foreign invasion, that it cleared her path of all foreign difficulties. She did not believe that she needed us tq: take care of her internal affairs. She did not struggle for 200 years against Span ish rule without the belief or misunder standing thkt she cotild tik'e' eaf^ of hfer own afi'airs. Therefore there was but one thing that weighed heavily upon her and that was the question of providing a market for her home products. "We received that benefit. Is there i senator here today who would surrend er if he could Would he give back to Cuba her absolute independence, her control over her foreign relations, and over her internal affairs. Would he yield to her again our coaling station and our naval base which we have es tablished there? If he could not, then there is one thing in honor that he can do, and that is to pay the price for which these things were given. Upon that theory and upon it alone I shall vote for this bill. Upon the proposition that we are bound in honor either to return what we have received from Cuba or give her certain concessions upon her products when imported into our own country."
