 the sugar race for many years to 

 come, even if ideal political condi- 

 tions could prevail and continue.

 done herself to make Cuba the sugar 

 bowl of the world; and that civili- 

 zation had done her part in settling

 store for Cuba and her sugar, de- 

 pends now on the skill and enter- 

 prise of man.
