it would be wits or prodant for tbia gov

th. independence of the totalled Cubao
republic. Such recognition, be taid, wu
not necrtaary to enable the .United
State to Intervene and pacify the 1.
land. On thi tubjwrt the president
taid:
"To commit tblt country bow to the
recognition of any particular govern
ment ia Cuba might tubjt-ct ut to eta
barraaing condition of international
obligation toward the organlaation an
recognised. In ce of intervtnUon our
conduct would be tnbject to approval or
disapproval of inch govern maat ; wt
would be required to iubn.it to IU di
rection and to aatome to it mere rela
tion of friendly a ally. When it tball ap
pear hereafter that there ia within th
Island a government capable of perform
ing dutie and ditt barging function
of teparate nation and having at
matter of faef, proper forma and attri
bute of inch nationality, each govern
ment can be projierly and readily recog
niacd. "The ground for inch intcrventioa
mi y l briefly tnmniarixed at follow:
"Kind. In tlie cauu of humanity and
to put an end to the barbantir, blond
bed, ttarvation and bornble mlat rie
now exi.ting there, and which part let to
the conflict ar either unable or snwill
ing to ttop or mitigate. It it no antwer
to aay thia it all in another country, be
longing to another uation, and 1 there
fore none of our buainea. It I tpeclally
our duty, for it it right at our door.
"Sceoud. W owe It to our citizen in
Oul to afford thera that protection, and
an indemnity fur life and property
w hich no government there can or will
afford, and to that end to terminate th.
condition that deprive them of local
protection.
"Third. The right to Intervene may
be ju-tifled by very teriout injury to
commerce, trade and butiuea intereat
of our people and by the wanton de
at ruction of property and devastation of
the island.
"Fourth. And what I of t he utmost
Importance, the present condition of af
fair in Cuba I a constant meuace to our
peace, aud entail upon tblt government
an enormou expenae.
"These element of danger aud disor
der already pointed out have been ttrik
ingly llluatrated by the tragto event
w him hat deeply and justly moved th
American people."
"1 have already trauauiitted to eon
gret the report of the naval court of iu
quiry on the destruction of th battle
ship Maine iu the harbor of Havana
during the night uf Feb. IS. The de
struction of that noble vessel filled th
national heart with iuexprvtslbl horror.
"Th naval court of Inquiry, which,
it U needle to say, command th un
qualified confidence of the government,
is unanimous In itt conclusion that th
destruction of the Maine wat caused by
au exterior explosion, that of a submar
ine mine. It did not assume to place tb
responsibility. That remain to be fixed.
"Iu any event th destruction of th
Maine, by whatever exterior cease, is
potent and Impressive proof of the ttate
of thing in Cuba that or intolerable.
That condition thu ihown to b tuch
that the Spanish goverument cannot at
tune safety aud tweurity to vessel of th
American uavy iu the harbor of Havana
on a mission of peace and rightfully
there.
"Siu had asked thi government to
aubmit th Malue questiou to arbitra
tion for settlement,11 but prealiUut Mo
Kiuley declared be hail made no reply to
thi uicsaige.
In closing, the meaaag read i
"Tho long trial hat proved that th
object for which Spain ha waged war
