So Declares Socialist Os
borne at Free Speech
Meeting.
Free speech flowed unobstructed In
the basement of the court house Fri
day evening.
The Socialists gathered there to start
things and to organise a "Free Speech
L j 6 R Osborne, the Socialist candi
date for governor, addressed the meet
ing on his recent experiences and the
moral thereof. He Is the man who
spent some time In the city stockade
for speaking on the street, without a
license.
He claimed that the city authorities
had discriminated against him because
he was not a Democrat. He said that
he had been informed that even Mayor
Woodward himself had, during his
cimpalgn. spoken to a crowd on the
Fourth National bank comer and called
attention to the Hoke Smith overflow
meeting In front of the Bijou—but
when he, a Socialist, began to talk he
was sent to Jail.
"A statesman is a man who works
far his country, and a politician Is a
man uho works his country," said he.
"Jim Woodward Is a politician.”
He said that Hoke Smith would be
challenged for a joint debate before the
people of Atlanta on railroad rates and
disfranchisement. The disfranchise
ment scheme, he said, would affect
hundreds of white people.
"Why Is the Democrat afraid of the
negro!" he aaked. No one answered.
“They say the negro Is a corrupting In
fluence in politics. Why not disfran
chise the white man who would buy
negro votes, or the votes of Ignorant
white people? He Is the man you are
after. He Is the ‘corrupting Influence.’"
When It came to organising the Free
Speech League It was decided to elect
in executive committee of seven,
pings went well until three names had,
wen put In nomination, but then the
ehtlrmtn had to call for volunteers and
thrust honors upon them to All the oth
er four places.
The meeting was attended by about
•evenly-live people. Including several
women. The audience was made up
sit'ly of members of labor unions.
Hr Osborne said to-# Georgian re-
Frin that before he spoke In Atlanta,
aept,. ;j, when he hoped to meet
*“«' .hit. he would address the peo
ple of Augusta, Savannah, Waycross,

Oyster Bay, N. Y„ Sept. 18.—After a
conference with Secretary of the Navy
Bonaparte, Secretary of War Taft. Act
ing Secretary of State Bacon and Sena
tor Beveridge, of Indiana, member of
the senate committee on Cuban rela
tions, which lasted from 3 o’clock yes
terday afternoon until 10 o'clock last
night. President Roosevelt hae pre
pared the following warning to Cuba.
The letter Is addressed to Senor Don
Gonzales de Qucsadu, the Cuban min
ister:
"My Dear Senor Quesada—In this
crisis In the affairs of the republic of
Cuba I write you not merely because
you are the minister of Cuba accredit
ed to this government, but because you
and I were Intimately drawn together
at the time when the United States In
tervened In the affairs of Cuba with the
result of making hor an Independent
nation.
"You know how sincere my affection
and admiration and regard for Cuba
are. You know that I never have done
and never ahall do anything In refer
ence to Cuba save with such slncero
regard for her welfare. You also know
the pride I felt because It came to me
as president to withdraw the American
troopa from the Island of Cuba and to
officially proclaim her Independence and
to wlah her God-speed In her career as
a free republic.
His Solemn Warning.
“I desire now. through ymi, to say
word of solemn warning to your people,
whose earnest well wisher I am. For
seven years Cuba has been In a condi
tion of profound peace and of steadily
growing prosperity. For four years
this peace and prosperity have obtained
under her own Independent govern
ment. Her peace, prosperity and Inde
pendence are now menaced, for of ail
possible evils that can befall Cuba, the
worst Is the evil of anarchy Into which
civil war and revolutionary disturb
ances will assuredly throw her. Who
ever Is responsible for armed revolution
and outrage, w hoever Is responsible for
the condition that now obtains, Is an
enemy of Cuba, and doubly heavy Is
the responsibility of the man who, af
fecting to be especial champion of Cu
ban Independence, takes any step which
will Jeopardize that Indi pendence.
"For there Is Just one way In which
Cuban Independence can be secured,
and that Is for the Cuban people to
show their ability to continue In their
path of peaceful and orderly progress.
Tills nation asks nothing of i uba save
that It Shall continue to develop as n
has developed during the past seven
years, that It shall know and practice
the orderly liberty which will assured!}
bring an ever increasing measure of
peace and prespertty to the beautiful
queen ot the Antilles. Our Interven
tion In Cuban affairs will only come If
Cuba herself shows that she h0 “* al !?"
Into the Insui recti.may habit, that she
lacks the self-restraint necessary to
peaceful self-goveramen.. and that her
her that the only way that they pan
preserve the Independence of the re
public Is to prevent the necessity of
outside Interference by rescuing her
from the anarchy of civil war. I earn
estly hope that this word of adjuration
of mine, given in. the name of the
American people, the stanchest friends
and well wishers of Cuba that there
are In all the world, will be token as It
Is meant; will be seriously considered,
and will be acted upon, and If so acted
upon, Cuba's imminent Independence,
her permanent success as r republic,
are assured.
"Under tte treaty with your gov
ernment, I as president of the United
States, have a duty In this matter
which 1 can not shirk. The third artf-
cle In that treaty Implicitly confers
upon the United States the right to In
tervene for the maintenance In Cuba
of a government adequate for the pro
tection of life, property and Individual
liberty.
"The treaty conferring this right Is
the supreme law of the land, and fur
nishes me with the right and the means
or fulfilling the obligation that I am
under to protect American Interests.
The Information at hand shows that the
social bonis throughout the Island have
been so relaxed that life, property and
Individual liberty are no longer safe. I
have received authentic Information of
Injury to and destruction of American
property. It Is In my judgment Im
perative for the sake of Cuba, that
there shall be an Immediate cessation
of hostilities snd some arrangement
which will secure the permanent paci
fication of the Island.
Will 8tnd Tsft.
"I am sending to Havana the secre
tary of war, Mr. Taft, and the assistant
secretary of state, Mr. Bacon, as the
special representatives of this govern-,
ment. who will tender such nld as Is
possible toward these ends. I had
hoped that Mr. Root, the secretary of
state, could have stopped In Havana on
his return from South America, but
the seeming Imminence of the crisis
forbids further delay.
"Through you I desire In this way to
communicate with the Cuban govern
ment and with the Cuban people, and
accordingly I am sending you a copy
of this letter to be presented to Presi
dent Palma and have also directed Its
Immediate publication.
"Sincerely yours.
