The Conditions of che Settlement
with Spain.

The following are the demands which
the Americans make upon Spain
FVst-Thc restoration of the Vrgnius
with the customary salute to the flag of the
United States.
Sec0nd-The release of the remaining
captiyes from imprisonment and their re-
turn to the protection of the American flag
1H0d-lndemnity to the families of such
American citizens rs were executed at
Santiago.
This in the main is what has been accom-
plished by the Government through the
friendly cooperation of Admiral Polo, the
Spanish Minister at Washington.
There are some details of understanding
as to what course shall be pursued with
the Nirginius, by which her probable status
shall be finally established after her return
to the United States, which are of course
unknown outside of official circles.
The Vrgnius will be surrendered on the
demand of this Government that she is an
American vessel and the acceptance by
Spain of the prima facie evidence. While
it is doubtful if any authoritative announce
ment of the virtual settlement of the con-
troyersy is made before the Presidents
message is sent to Congress the fact will
nevertheless, in the meantime, remain, il
is believed, unchanged.

sessing the confidence, respect and affec-
tons of his fellow-citizens TO degree
never equalled, unless it may have been in
the case Of Henry Clay. lie could have
received, at their hands, and adorned
almost any public station that he might
have desired, but for that one sad falling
in his case amounting almost to a disease
AS it was, he was the "war governor of
Illinois, being one of the few who gained
and worthily wore that appellation, and,
the Senate of the United States. His strug-
giles to wean himself from his fatal, debas-
ing habit are almost historic, and, in our
Judgment, his address before the "congrcs-
sional temperance society,"" on "signing
the pledge is one of. the most eloquent,
touching and pathetic specimens of "off-
hand American oratory of which we have
any record. We are not informed as to
the particulars of his death-further than
is contained in the announcement that it
was suddcn-but knowing that after vain
and terrible struggles and sufferings in the
endeavor to resist the fatal temptcr, he
yielded and fell again continually going
deeper and deeper into the mire, with
occasional honest but futile attempts at re-
form his naturally hardy and vigorous
constitution; and that he died ere he had
reached fifty-siX years we can but too
surely determine the cause. 1t is sad, in
cxprcssbly sad to see such men as Richard
Yates destroy themselves, deprive the
country of their services, and bring untold
suffering and sorrow on family, kindred
and friends through Indulgence in de-
PRAYED appetite. 1t is strange, passing
strange, tits pitiful, it is wondrous pitful,
that young men, just entering upon life,
that statesmen and politicians in the first
flush of their success, can see the splendid
talents Of Yates, a Marshall, McDou-
gall, a Salisbury, prostitutcd from this
cause, and dying an early and, some of
them Il horrid death, and not be, thereby,
forced back from the fatal abyss which is
so sure to cngulph many of them.

nan is so acting to-day. Every dollar in
money, and every cents worth of property
that William NJ. Tweed claims to own
was stolen from the tax payers of New
York. For his thefts, he has been sem
fenced TO imprisonment on Blackwell Is
land, and the law makes it the sherffs inn
perative duty to confine him there "as soon
as may be-" But what course does Bren-
nan take Toadying to Tweeds stolen
riches, he allows him to remain in the
Tombs, SO that he "may arrange his bust
ness"-meaning in plain. English, until he
can dispose of his ill-goiten gains. Why
should he be allowed to dispose Of his plum
der, with the connivance Of the sheriff, any
more than burglar or sneak thief? 1t is
Brennan, and officers like him, that bring
the law into disrepute and make distnc-
tions between different classes of criminals.
We hope the proper officers of New York
city, and the citizens thereof, have back
bone enough TO impcach and remove this
miserable toady and law breaker.

bers; but they had proved that Americans
can take up arms and lay them down when
the war is over with cheerfulness and
quietly resume their professions. Thus it
was at the close of the war of 1912 and
the Mexican war. We have proven that
when the necessity for soldiers ceases they
can return TO the civil walks of life and
rank among the best citizens of this great
Republic. He could say that neither rcgu-
lar troops nor volunteers are disturbers of
the public peace, but rather guardians of
1t. and he could promise that the soldiers
of 1912 will not be made to feel ashamed
OF the young men who now are in the
army or may be called into it. The young
officers of the present day are equal to any
officers in foreign armies. A more brave,
intelligent, reliable set could not be found.
They should not think that men have de-
generated, for they have not, and those of
the present army would compare favorably
with those who were young in 1872 As
for the navy, they knew with what dis
patch it was being prepared for war. The
dockyards are now hives Of industry, and
already our men-of-war are gathering in
the quarter where it looks rs if they will
be needed. They need have no fears. for
the navy, for he had been close observer
OF the conduct of naval officers abroad,
and he could say as much for them as for
their brothers of the army.

TEgE CRANE DErALCATroN.

Only Thursday morning Thanksgiving
Day--we were cUngratulatng ourselves
and our fellow-citizens- and mentioning it
as reason for thanksgiving in Vermont
that while embczzements and dcfalcatons
have taken place all around us, our citizens,
occupying places of trust and responsibility
remained unspottcd. We wrote accord
ing to our knowledge, but the fact was
otherwise. In our very next issue, we
were compelled to record a blot and stain
on the fair fame and name of Vermont.
Until within few weeks, each congress
sional district of Vermont has been n
separate district for the collection of the
United States internal revenue, each having
a collector In accordance with an act of
Congress, the three districts were consol-
dated into one, and, of the then.collectors,
y. j. Crane, Of Burlington, was retained
rs the collector of internal revenue for the
entire state 1t is but "a few weeks since
the district was consolidated and the APP
pointment made, yet Crane is proved TO be,
btlllto hliIlStll w II 10 lllt
amount of owe: seventeen thousand dollars.
We are not, rs yet, in possession OF the
full facts, but we must confess, that in our
judgment, his statement as published in
our telegraphic. columns, Saturday morn
ing, is lame, or he has been crlninally
negligent in the discharge of his duties.
Dates are not given us, but the substance
of his defense is that "a deputy in his office,
who kept all the books and had charge of
the funds, took the money and by false en-
tries concealed the theft. What force there is
TO this explanation every one can judge for
himself when it is stated that Cranes pre-
decessOr sued this same deputy for an
alleged THEFT of several thousand dollars.
Why did not this put Crane on the guard?
\ business man of ordinary intelligence,
upon the discovery of such state of facts,
would have, at once, taken measures to in
vestigate the matter. Whether the charge
was true or false, Crane could not, without
criminal negligence, hesitate in the course
he should pursue AS an officer of the
United States, he had but one course to
pursue. The books should have been inn
mediately examined and a criminal prose
cution commenced against this deputy.
Whether on the commencement Of the suit
by the former collector, this deputy was
removed or not we are uninformed, but
from the silence of our dispatch upon the
subject, we are led to infer that he was not.
In any view OF the matter, Crane has been
crimnally negligent in the discharge Of the
responsible duties of his position, Await
ing the full facts in the case. we foibear
further comment.

BRINGS TIgE LAW INTO DISRE-
PgVEE.

There is an idea more or less prevalent
among certain portions of the citizens of
the country, that the courts discriminate,
in the administration Of justice, between
different classes Of society. That is to
say, that the rich and influential are al
can obtain their rights, while the poor are
declared from justice that the wealthy
criminal goes unwhippcd of justice, while
the friendless and poverty stricken are
punished to the full extent of the law. \
moments reflection would convince every
one that there is not the least foundation,
in fact, for such an idea All men are
equal before the law, all are amcnable
thereto, and its provisions bear upon all
alike. 1t is true that those who have
abundant wealth and are blessed with
powerful, influential friends can employ
the most eminent counsel, prepare most
elaborate defense and carry their cause
through its different stages to the court of
last resort. 1t is, however, equally true
that in the case Of the poor and friendless,
the court assigns counsel for the defense.
generally of the highest standing, while the
state pays for their services, as it is, also,
at the expense of summOning and paying
for their witnesses. The way that our
jurics are constituted, also, precudes-or
ought to-any idea of an undue leaning to
the rich and influential criminal Jurors
are not, as general rule, selected from the
wealthy class. All are equally liable to do
jury duty, and the jury box is composed
of both classes alike. 1t follows. there
fore, that unless the jury is composed of
the most abject, cringing, toadyish class
that the same kind of justice will be
awarded to the rich and poor alike. The
conviction of Professor John w. Webster
Walworth, Tweed and Ingcrsoll is a con.
yincing proof that there is no foundation
for such an idea, 80 far as the law. the
courts and the jury are concerned 1t Is.
nevertheless, lamentabe fact that some
OF the officers OF the court so conduct them
selves as to bring the law into disrepute, by
actually making distinction between diff

REPEAL :

We think the weakest most foolish and
unpatriotlc act of General Grants whole
career was in signing the increase of salary
bill, unless it was the course pursued by
him while the subject was under consider
alton. 1t is idle to say that his signature
was necessary to save the appropriation
bill, because the President had the power
to Immediately summon an extra session of
Congress for the sole purpose of making
the necessary appropriations for carrying
on the government. An extra session would
have put the country to a large expense,
but it would have been insignificant com
pared with the annual drain made on our
resources by this ubiquitous measure Any
pretence that this consideration secured his
approval is rendered absurd and ridiculous
by the statements made by Mr.. Willard, of
his own knowledge, that the President pei
sonally urged the increase of his own sala-
ry. We have no idea that there is virtue
enough in Congress to repeal this act, even
so far as their own salaries are concerned
We doubt not that there will be Il strife
among certain members to see who shall
be the first to introduce a repeating act
Some, perhaps, will be actuated by honest,
patriotic motives, but with the majority il
will be all buncombe, For the deluson of
the people-who, by the way, are not
quite so ignorant as these learned public
servants Imagine several speeches will be
made favorng the repeal, but when the
vote comes TO be taken, the ayes and NAYS
will not be recorded, the law will remain
as it is, and the several members will each
claim that he voted for repeal. If, how
ever, the bill, for a repeal, should pass Con.
gress, it will never become law, if the
Presidents salary is included therein. That
he desired his pay doubled is notorious, ant
he remains of the same opinion still. More
over, he will not be compelled to 'take the
responsibility, because, while yetoing it
he can shield himself behind the constiu
tional provision, and place his opposition
thereto on the simple ground that it is un
constitutional. We do not believe thai
there is any power, either with or without
his consent, to change the Presidents sal
AIRY from fifty thousand dollars. We neet
not enlarge upon any of these points, bu
If any one expects to see salaries PLACED

Since our comments on the defalca-
ton in the office of the collector of
internal revenue were in type, our re-
porter, whom we dispatched to Burling-
ton Saturday, has returned, and the full
particulars of the matter will be found
elsewhere. With these details before
us, we see no reason to alter anything
that we have said. We still think Mr..
Crane was grossly negligent of his duty in
not discharglng Jcwett, when first in
formed of MIR Bakers claim and, in our
judgment, with a full knowledge of his al
legged criminalty, both while serving as a
deputy to Mr.. Baxter and himself, he
was derelict in duty in allowing Mr..
Jewett to leave the state. AS for ,Jewctt,
and we say it with ineXpressiblc sadness
for we knew him long and well, it seems
to us there is but one course to pursue. An
example should be made somewhere and
at sometime, because the defalcatons are
becoming too alarmingly frequent, and per-
sons occupying such positions must under
stand that it is as great a crime to rob the
government as to rob an employer We
will not enlarge upon this at present, but
shall take occasion to refer to it again.
