NEEDS MUCH JUDGMENT.

The Epoca, the organ of Senior Ca
novas and the ministerialists. in COM
menting upon the situation. says that
Spain needs at the present moment
much calm, sound Judgment on the
part of the public to avoid greater diff
ficulties than those the government is
now facing. AS long as prudence is
compatible with national honor, Spain
has nothing to do save to defend her
rights, if they are attacked.
A recognition of belligerency is not a
casus belli unless such recognition is
granted by an interested nation. For
merry, Spain recognized the belliger-
ency of the southern states of Amer
lea, despite the protest of the federal
government, which did not regard the
attitude of European governments in
this matter as casus belli. If the act
indicated by the Cameron resolution
shall be contaminated, Spain will pro-
test, thereby greatly inflaming the re-
lations between the United States and
Spain. but Spaniards must not forget
the attitude of the powers which, after
President Cleveland's declaration anent
the Anglo-VeneZuelan dispute, alb
stained from intervention. S9ain
ought to keep account of all these pre-
cedentS
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-12-21
HIS POINT OF VIEW.

Prime Minister Canovas holds that
under the framing of Senator Cam
eron's resolution. there will be no
armed intervention on the part of the
United States in Cuban territory.
Though the partisans of the proposal
may obtain the necessary votes to
override the veto which he believes
President Cleveland Will interpose, and
so make the resolution an obligatory
act of congress. it would only affect a
recognition of the independence of Cuba
and lead to an offer of its good offices
by the United States TO terminate the
war. With whatever officiousness the
United States may interpose, Spain will
retain the right to accept or reject the
offer of the American good offices. If
the United States recognizes the indie
pendence of Cuba, she will then have
to recognize the laws of neutrality. If
she recognizes the belligerency of the
Cubans, Spain will have the right to
stop and visit American vessels at sea.
ANOTHER BRAG.
Senior Canovas does not think that
the Cameron resolution need cause
serious perturbation. 1t will only make
the relations between Spain and the
United States more strained. but need
not cause a rupture. He will never
consent tc foreign interference in what
is a question of SDain's domestic
politics. Spain will regulate her acts
so that nobody will be able to say
that she made war upon another power
yet she will always repel aggression.
The tone of the newspapers generally
is more moderate TODAY than it was
yesterday They contain little to ex-
cite the populace.

PRESIDENTS POWER.
OIney's Declaration Was Not

It Is Said to Have Been the Result
of Careful and Studious Delibera-
ton by the Secretary-Some Pre-
cedents.

Washington, Dec 2o.-There is every
reason to believe that Secretary Olney's
declaration that recognition is exclusively
an executive function was not made until
after that cautious and thorough delibera-
ton which characterized his conduct of
the negotiations with Lord Salisbury over
the Venezuelan eentroyessy and other i'm
