RECOGNITION OF CUBA.

The sentiment of the entire country
would justify the government in
granting the Cuban insurgents recog-
milton as belligerents; in fact the senti-
ment of the country almost demands
that it be granted 1t was stated in the
dispatches the other day that Secretary
Olney had notified Senior Depuy de
Lone, the Spanish ambassador at
Washington, that Spain must quell the
rebellion in Cuba within three months
or this country would take indepen-
dent action. The Spanish embassy at
London took the trouble to deny that
Spain had received any warning from
the United States. This brings the
Washington correspondent OF the Chi
cago Times-Herald. Walter Wellman.
back to the subject. He says that if
Minister Dupuy de Lone has faith
fully reported to Madrid the substance
and significance of his recent inter
view with Secretary Olney, THE for
eign office is itself guilty of giving the
world a false statement"
The conference between Secretary
Olney and Senior De LONE, says Well
man, was verbal and formal, and that
there were no definite propositions to be
made and discussed. The Spaniard
said that a ninety days campaign
would wipe out the last vestiges of the
revolt and restore order in the distrac-
ted island.
To this Secretary Olney replied with
some pleasant things and some very
significant things, which latter were
that if Spain should by chance fail to
uproot the rebellion during the winter,
and the revolution were still to con-
tinue with peril to Americans and their
interests in Cuba, then the United
States might be forced to the adoption
of new policy This was significant,
and Wellman says that before the
Spaniards are done with Olney they
will wish him at the bottom of the sea.
He thinks the time to act has not yet
arrived but that when it does Secretary
Olney will act promptly and energeti-
cally. 1t cannot be far off and when it
comes the people will receive the
recognition of belligerent rights, if not
independence itself, with shouts of
welcome.

meaning thereof. This is not race
regulation to shut out the colored man.
because it applies to all citizens of
every hue and every shade of politics.
1t is really an educational qualifica-
ton for the suffrage.
What is there wrong about it? Is
it not in spirit the very thing that has
been contended for by the cultured
people of the country for years? Has
not the assertion been common that
there are too manv voters. and that
the grossly ignorant among them ought
to be eliminated from the voting ros-
ters? Is it not New England idea?
Have not Republicans favored it in
many places? What is the matter,
then?
Why, they fear that it will have the
effect of cutting down the Republican
vote in that state, and in other places
where the same rule might be adopted.
1t is a partisan objection, that is all.
But anything that might lessen the
Republican vote is a crime in Republi-
can eyes.
There has been some talk of direct
bar against negro influence in that
state. 1t was proposed to draw the
color line on office-holding. That is, to
amend the state constitution so as to
restrict office-holding to white men.
That perhaps would be an extreme
measure, and we do not think it will
or ought to prevail. But there is moth
ing in it in violation Of the Fifteenth
Amendment to the United States Con-
stitution, as some persons imagine.
The Fifteenth Amendment simply de.
clares that the right to vote shall not
be denied or abridged on account Of
race, color or previous condition of
servitude. 1t may be argued that the
denial of the right to hold Office on ac-
count of color, would be in violation of
the spirit and intent of that Amend
ment But that is mistake.
When it was under consideration
there was a proposition to include in
that Amendment the right to hold Of
flee as well as to vote. but it was not
agreed to. 1t was stricken out in Con-
gress after an animated debate.
The right to vote. and the right to
hold office, and the right to serve on a
jury, are different and distinct rights,
and man may hold the first without
any legal claim to the others or either
of them There may be additional
qualifications imposed by law for
holding Office and others for serving on
juries. SO it is quite possible that
direct color qualification or disqualifi-
cation could be required, without con-
fict with the Federal Constitution.
However, we should think that would
not prevail in the formation Of the
proposed new Constitution of South
Carolina, as it is too invidious and
would cause no doubt q, great deal of
opposition in many quarters. The edu-
cational qualification is totally differ
ent thing and carries with it much that
will recommend it to the people in
other parts than the South who think
there ought to he greater restrictions
to the exercise Of the voting power in
this country.

NO TARIFF REVISION.

As the time for Congress to meet
approaches discussion of Republican
candidates for the Presidency will con-
centrate more and more ON a few
prominent men. "Favorite sons may
be mentioned, but they will receive lit
tie or no consideration. The incoming
Congress will very largely shape the
policy of the Republican party next
year. There are two important Ques-
tons for it to deal with; they are sill
yer and the tariff. 1t is quite safe to
say that no action favorable to the free
coinage of silver will be taken either in
Congress or in convention. The con-
vention may put forth some platitudes
favoring bimetallism and International
action; but nothing more. This leaves
the tariff again the leading issue.
Senator Burrows, of Michigan, was
in Washington the other day. and he
expressed the opinion that there would
be no tariff legislation this session, al
leging as a reason that such legisla-
ton would meet with opposition from
Mr.. Cleveland, and hence would be
forward, but on the eve of a presiden-
tial campaign it is an utterly INSULT
cient one.
If the party leaders were of the opin-
ion that a revision of the present tariff
was demanded by their party and the
people, they would very soon introduce
bills for that purpose, not With any
hope OF having them enacted into law,
but simply to make political capital.
That they will not do it SHOWS that
they think no political capital is to be
made that way. The st. Louis Globe
Democrat sums up the whole question
when it says. discussing the attitude
of ex-President Harrison toward Reed
and Mckinley:
The cause of Harrison's feeling to-
ward Mckinley can easily be traced
out. McKinley's tariff act defeated
him in the canvass. 1t is possible of
course, that the Republicans would
have been beaten in 1892 even if the
tariff of 1883 We're untouched. Short
periods of power are likely to be the
rule hereafter, unless the party on the
outside finds some way not ordinarily
open to a party in that position for
displaying folly and arousing the pop
ular hostility. But with the Mckinley
revision of the tariff as an issue, the
revision which was upward when
everybody wanted it to be downward
if there were to be any revision at all,
Republican defeat was inevitable. a
weaker candidate than Cleveland I'M
der those conditions could have beaten
a stronger candidate than Harrison.

RESTRICTING THE SUFFRAGE.

A great deal of noise is made by Re-
publicans over the proposition to
amend the constitution of South Caro-
Ina, in such a way as to exclude a
great many negroes from the elective
franchise. OF course the Republican
party still poses as the special friend
of the colored man. 1t is his friend. to
the extent of taking advantage of his
gratitude for supposed favors from
that party, by monopolizing his vote
and keeping him from office and its
emoluments. 1t has come to be an
adage that, "All the use the Republic
cans have for the negro is his vote"

South Carolina constitution is a re-
quirement that every citizen, on apply
