The first thought Of every American
concerning the Alliance incident is that
no foreign warship of Spain or any 9TH
or country shall be allowed to insult the
United States flag with IMMUNITY. The
simple fact that peaceful merchant ship
of the United States, the Alliance, while
going through the windward passage
between Cuba and Haiti, on her way to
New York, was fired on by a Spanish
cruiser not far from Cape Maysi, is
ground of itself for the demand for am
pie satisfaction from Spain, whether the
Alliance was within three miles Of the
Cuban shore or not. Even war vessels
commit no outrage when they pass
within three miles of the shores of
friendly nations. Nobody wants any
war with Spain, and it is sincerely to
be hoped that a peaceful explanation
will soon be arrived at and the whole
incident closed. But it is no jingoism
to say that foreign nations must not be
allowed to fire on American merchant
men. There this government must set
its foot down.

There is Napoleonic revival in
America There is Bismarck revival
in Germany. The preparations for cele-
brating the eightieth birthday Of Ger
many's grand old man, April 1, exceed
even those formerly made to honor the
natal days Of the aged Emperor Freder-
lex William. The festival will last sew
eral weeks. Now that his claws have
been drawn and he can no longer come
down on them with his dictum of blood
and iron, the German people have taken
to loving their old lion Bismarck. They
used to admire and stand in awe of him
in the days Of his power. They never
loved him till now. The snub given to
him by the young emperor first excited
their sympathy and it followed him into
his retirement. Then when they no Ion
ger felt his grim hand upon them their
judgment had time to clear, and they
began to see that this greatest of all
continental statesmen was really the
founder and builder of Germany. Glad
stone in England, when his eighty-sixth
birthday comes next December, will
hardly receive such universal and enthu-
siastic homage as is this spring laid at
the feet of Bismarck.

An Order of Honor

A literary order Of merit for eminent
British writer's is proposed in England.
The queen will establish it and there
after confer it's ribbon or star or shield,
or whatever it's symbol may be, on those
who have been named as worthy of it.
1t is unfortunate that the great Unit
ed States government has as yet no or
der Of merit Of any kind for services in
the literary or scientific world. France
has the ribbon and cross of her Legion
Of Honor for distinguished achievement
in every walk of life We have nothing.
A star or other device bestowed by his
country on Thomas A. Edison for being
the greatest inventor of modern times
would be more to him than the praise of
all the rest of the world. Mark Twain,
as the worlds greatest living humorist,
would be equally proud Of such a token.
Then there is Clara Barton, honored in
two hemispheres, the recipient of vari-
GUS medals and tokens of appreciation
from European nations, but with not so
much as brass pin from her own coun-
try.
Let the next congress establish an Or
der Of merit. Itwould be such an in
centive to great deeds as the order Of
the Legion of Honor is in France. And
we ought to have it anyhow.

Venezuela.

The one serious looking international
complication on the American continent
is presented by Venezuela. That repub-
lie, though weak and poverty stricken,
is not conciliatory. She seems to want
to fight, but has nothing to fight with.
She has succeeded in directing toward
herself the displeasure of four great Eu-
ropean powers-France, Belgium, Ger
many and Great Britain.
Venezuela has expelled the French
and Belgian ministers from her borders,
which has naturally antagonized those
countries. Some years ago German con-
tractors built the Venezuelan railway
under guarantee of the payment of a
certain sum of money by the republics
government The money has never been
paid. Venezuela declares herself at
present too poor to raise it. Thereupon
Germany half threatens to send war
ships and seize Venezuelan territory
and hold it till the money is forthcom-
ing. But the German government did
not construct the railway, and it is
hard to see what excuse it can have for
thus enforcing private claim.
Great Britain wants the boundary Of
British Guiana extended to take in large
and valuable lands plainly belonging to
Venezuela under the old Spanish terri
torial rights Nothing is clearer than
that Great Britain ought to arbitrate
this question, but she refuses to do SO,
so far as the best part Of the territory
she claims is concerned Secretary
Gresham and Mr.. Bayard are looking
into the case for both nations.
However events turn out, it is plain
that the United States cannot permit
any of these European nations to get a
larger foothold in America, North or
South. The Monroe doctrine covers the
whole continent.

Journalism In Spain.

Recent events show that Spain is as
much a military despotism as Russia.
The difference is that in Russia the en-
peror and his ministry govern, while in
Spain the army, the small officers at
that, govern not only the country, but
the queen regent and the ministry as
we'll. That Madrid newspaper expressed
only the popular sentiment, just or
unjust, when it limited that the swarms
Of small army officers clustered about
Madrid were by no means anxious to 20
out to Cuba and fight for Spain by put
ting down the rebellion. A hundred
times during our civil war the same
charge was made by American newspa-
pers against the Feather bed'' officers
who staid at Washington. That jour-
nalistic expression was merely liberty Of
the press.
But the small Spanish officers gather
I'D in mob and wrecked the Office of
the first newspaper that had dared to
criticise them. After one Office had been
wrecked another journal denounced the
military mob and demanded that the
officers be punished. This was sufficient
to stir up the lawless, riotous officers
against the whole newspaper press of
Madrid. The only authority left in
Spain seems to be General Campos, and
he is afraid of the petty officers He is
sued mild bluff to them. On the 9TH
or hand, he issued a manifesto to the
newspapers that if any more editors ven
tured to criticise the army they should
be shot

About Money.

About the earliest record of a real
estate deal is in the Old Testament.
where it is said that Abraham bought
the field of Ephron for four hundred
shekels OF silver. Coined money was
not in use, for we read that Abraham
weighed unto Ephron the price. Sill
YER and gold in those days we're in the
form OF ingots or bricks, and the
amount needed was cut off and weighed.
Since that day man has made a con-
siderable advance, and now has gold
and silver coins of various names, as:
Dimes, quarters, dollars, eagles, double
eagles, marks, kreutzers, forins, du-
cats, Argentines, francs, Bolivianos,
milreis, onzas, pesos, condors, doub-
looms, escudos, krone, piastres, sover-
eigns, crowns, drachmas, gourdes,
rupees, lire, sen, yen, meas coroas, i'm
perials, pesetas, thalers, confines,
reals, centavos, ore, shillings, pence,
lepta, reis, skillings, centesimos, and
roubles. The smallest subdivision of
value has been effected by the uncivil-
lied African, who uses ''cowries''
(shells) as currency, seventy of which
are equal to one cent of our money.
There are other names for money, as
the ready, the rhino, long green, the
