Under the title of Americas Interest
in Eastern Asia" the Hon. John Barrett,
United States Minister to Siam, presents
in the opening article of the North Amer

statement of the gross neglect of Amer
vailing IN that part of the world, and
points out the methods whereby a re-
NEEDY may be obtained. An interesting
paper on the Revival of the Olymp.an
Games is contributed by Mr.. George
Horton, United States Consul at Athens.

The President and Spanish Mad-
ness

It would appear from the Washington
dispatches in the morning papers that
President Cleveland holds exactly the
position upon the Cuban question which
has been defined in THE News during
the last two days. except that he seems
to entertain more sympathy for the
Cuban rebels than we can see any justi-
fcation for. Indeed. we share General
Weyier's surprise that the American
people can find anything to admire or
commend in the bands of looting, pillag-
ing runaways. who have made a desert
of their own land without once daring
to face the Spanish troops.
President Cleveland is appalled, at the
violation of International comfy involved
in the Congressional resolutions. Pos
sessing both a healthy conscience and a
clear intellect, he sees tina such out
rageous Interference with another ma
TONS affairs must bring rot only dis
earth. but must further build up organized
hostility. He must see that if We push
our aggressions upon Spain to the point
Of war, there is a very large probability
that both England and France may be-
come her allies. both being at present
urging p~retensions upon this Continent,
which it is to our interest to oppose.
The President viii. no doubt. exert
every power of his high office to counter
act the madness of Congress, and he
should have the support of all sane men
in doing so.

Sheriff's office, the Street and Water
Board and such other machines as are
controlled by the G. o. P. went around

the day designated for the Primary farce.
they will go through the motions of vot-
ing for the delegates selected meantime
by the bosses. The G. o. P is first in the
field in this county. It is very active. be-
cause it is very anxious to win. 1T is in
very fair shape in many ways. 1t has
the offices and the cash. The breaches in
the party are not particularly sore. at
least for the moment and every mothers
everyone thinks there is something in it
Tor himself.
This is the situation the Democracy has
to confront. 1t is not one to cause dis
enlargement. but it is one to call for the
best and most earnest efforts that every
Democrat can put forth. The grea. point
In our favor. the great basis for hope in
the coming struggles, is that we carried
not only Fudson County but Jersey City
100 BY splendid majorities last Novem-
her. But the great danger that threat
ems us is a feeling of cocksuredness
founded UPON that victory, for if we
either present to the voters candidates
below the standard of our last Assembly
ticket. or if we relax our efforts and let
the campaign take care of itself to a
greater or less degree. we cannot bring
the same vote out again, and defeat will
be our portion.
The municipal election which is to be
held on April IA. in this, city. is the fore
runner of the greater contest in No
veunber. The results in the latter case will
be largely f~oreshadowed BY the vote in
the former event. We an Know how this
state went last year in spiteNof Hudson's
Democracy. we can all appreciate with
out argument the chilling }nect of a
Democratic defeat in Hudson Shis April.
II would mean virtually the loAg<of the
state, for we cannot see any \way in
which the discouragement and deAporali-
zation which it would cause coue9 be
overcome. We must win now, if we Nave
any idea of winning in November. N
