Tie Times this morning has an editorial on Spanish
fairs The writer says he has but little sympathy
for and less faith in Spanish republcansm' Inc
failure of the present Government is owing 10 an
unnecessary proongation of the Provisional Govern
ment and the attempt to close it up when 1t has be-
come impossible to do so. There is now no hing
forthcoming and it is better to leave matters as they
arc. Regency is the only possible scheme. When
it is understood that dangerous questions lie dor
mant change in the government will be indefinitely
adjourned. Some steps may now be made toward
cancellation of the two parties CASTELAR,, Flgueras,
and others are not formidable as adversaries and
may be useful as friends. They are avowed Repub-
lieans, but men of order. We might easily regard
the Regency as half-way-house, less Objectionable
than Monarchy, and less dangerous than Repub-
lie. Prm leans this way, and between him and Cas-
tellar a union Is possible. A government in which
CASTELAR, would represent freedom, and Prim order
and authority might offer sufficient guarantees of its
honest views and tendencies to satisfy all reasonable
people.
