90 1921 Spain. 81


1t is now manifest that Spain is in great
trouble The revolutionary leaders are
now seen in their true characters Prim,
Serrano, and The. others are now rather the
men we thought them before the revolution
than the men they seemed to be in the first
lush of revolutionary success. A couple of
months ago Spain hailed them as liberators.
Now Spain regards them as traitors, or as
men who are miserably incompetent Ru-
NOR has it that the elections which were
fixed for the middle of this month are not
to take place till towards the middle of
January, and that IN consequence the
Cortes will not meet until February is far
advanced IL is now difficult to resist the
conviction that the revolutionary leaders
are hampered by pledges which they find
it impossible to redeem. Montpensier made
4 good figure so no doubt did Napoleon
but the people, who seem resolved to have
their way, who know nothing of pledges,
are bar both TO Montpensier and Napole-
onic plans. Judging from late news, the
Republican sentiment is growing. We know
it is strong in the southern provinces Such
hesitation as is now manifested by the pro
visional Government can have no other eff
feet than to band the people together and
to INSPIRE them with common republican
sentiment The revolutionary tide, if we
are to Judge from recorded facts, is too
strong TO be controlled, and It seems to be
the determination of the Government to
save themselves and to get rid Of thor
pledges by allowing events to take their
course.-N Y Herald
