Is There War in Cubaf

The New York Herald puts the ques
ton very strongly. 1t says: If Spain is
entitled to belligerent rights, and this
would involve the permission for her
men-of-war to stop American ships anG
search them and, in certain circustances,
seiSe persons found on board. But, save
In tile exercise OF belhgcrent rights and
with strict limitations, even then, it is
not admitted that any Power has q Alright
to visit our ships on the high seas, and
we have had one war on this point.
Spanish officers, therefore, in capturing
the Yirginius did or did not violate the
flag she bore, according as Spain has Or
has not rights, and she is entitled to
exercise such rights only if there Is war
In Cuba; but she says there is no war
there

" On to Cuba !"

There is of course great excitement in
III the chief cities, particularly in New
York and New Orleans, over the bloody
news of the last two or three days which
has come to US from Cuba The truth is
the United States authorities have always
played the part Of spies and fools with
respect to the fllibusters who, from time
to time, have set their plans for liberating
the Queen of the Antilles. We owe the
technical law of nations much; we owe it
strict observance where the interests Of
civilized and equal nations are concerned
but we owe it nothing where Spain is
concerned. There is not one single moral
obligation attaching US to Spain. The
American people owe the Spaniard moth
ing but detestation. They have not for
gotten the murdered Crittenden and his
men, and they will not forget them, ami
ought not to forget them until free
flag floats over free Cuba. But this can
oe accomplished only by the fllibusters.
If they had been let alone they would
have accomplished it years ago.
The intermeddling Yankee spirit has
been marlplot and bugbear throughout.
There is no sense in making ourselves the
special policeman for set Of execrablc
Spanish cut throats who pay no heed to
;Le laws Of nature, much less to the laws
of nations. In the case of the Virgirius
the technical law Of nations is against us.
But there is no reason why we may nov
shut our eyes to the operation Of the FL
llbusters until they have achieved what
the destiny of an enterprising American
clearly points at. If the Federal author
ties will keep their hands of, we shall
see Cuba inundated within twelvcmontL
by food Of roaring heroes who will give
US all of the revenge We wan , and the is
land into the bargain. That is the way to
square accounts with Spain, and it is the
only way. In tie matter Of technical law
we can do NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

. Rub Out and Begin Anew"

Gov. Washburn, of Wisconsin, though
Radical Republican to the backbone,
shows occasional streaks of candor in hls
public speeches. In late effort at Fol.
du Lac he said: Candor compels me to
say that the South generally has been
terribly accursed by an inroad of adven
turers from the North. South Carolina,
Louisiana, and Florida are absolutely
ruined by them, and there is no hope
for either Of those states but to rub out
and begin anew"
