Spanish American War Cartoon

In this Spanish political cartoon, the artist depicts Uncle Sam in a mocking fashion so as to dis the
USA. Now this translation may not be completely spot on, (seeing as it's in Catalan, a dialect of Spanish) but the caption appears to be saying "Save the island, because it's lost." The Spanish public seemed to have viewed the Americans as greedy, because they depicted Uncle Same as gathering the Caribbean with a demonic gaze. They also make the USA have a superior arrogance, because they describe the island as "lost" or in my interpretation, without direction, exactly what the US felt Cuba was without someone else governing them.
