THE COMPETITOR CASE.

There are some cool heads in the
Spanish government. If General Wey-
Ter had had his way. he would have ex-
ecuted the Americans captured on board
the Competitor. and that would have
been an act which would almost neces-
sarlly involved the United States and
Spain in war.
The Intervention of our government
is based on the treaty of 1895 and the
protocol of 1877. The treaty of 1895 was
largely concerned in settling the rights
of the two countries in case of war be-
tween either of the governments and
some other power The seventh arti-
Gle provides that 1.-The subjects and
citizens of each of the contracting
parties their vessels or effects. shall
not be liable to any embargo or deten-
ton on the part of the other. for any
military expedition or public or private
purpose whatever, and in all cases of
seizure. detention or arrest for debts
contracted, or offenses committed by
any citizen of the one party within the
Jurisdiction of the other, the same shall
be made and prosecuted by the order
and authority of the law only. and ac-
cording to the regular course OF pro-
ceedings usual in such cases."
BY the protocol of 1877, Spain agreed
that mo citizen of the United States re-
siding in Spain, her adjacent islands,
or her ultramarine possessions, charg-
ed with acts of sedition, treason or con-
spiracy against the institutions, the
public security. the integrity of terri
tory or against the supreme govern
ment. or any other crime whatsoever
shall be subject to trial by any excep-
tional tribunal. but exclusively by the
primary jurisdiction, except in the case
of being captured with arms in hand. :"
1t was further agreed that those not
captured with arms In hand shall be
deemed TO have been so arrested and i'm
prisoned by the order of the civil au-
thority for the effects of the law of
April II. 1921. even though the arrest
or Imprisonment shall have been eff
fected by armed force"
So far as known the Americans
among the party seized on the Com
petitor were not captured with arms
in hand" AT the worst they were
canght while trying TO smuggle into
Cuba arms, aueInition and other mer-
chandise. which had not been declared
contraband of war. According to the
contention of Spain, no war exists I'm
Cuba, and the cargo OF the Competitor
was not therefore 'contraband of war"
though subject TO seizure for irregular
landing and evasion OF tariff duties
and port dues. Those engaged in run
ming" the cargo were liable to punish
ment as smugglers. and the legal pen
atty for smuggling. even in Cuba, is
not death.

The Germans and Free C image.

Dubuque Herald: The Germans of the
fatherland and of America have solidly
opposed any depreciation in the value of
money. In this country they were unani-
nous against the greenback doctrine,
with it's fiat money. The Germans have
steadfastly favored a coinage whose
money worth is its intrinsic, commercial
worth. In the present free silver agita-
ton the COMMUNICATIONS are well
nigh unanimous against the free-silver
proposition because money and coinage
would then be partly fiat. and because
the dollar would become depreciated.

Decad nee of tn r. pub lean Party.

Indianapolis Sentinel: The whole party
has become saturated with the doctrine
of paternalism with the idea of personal
profit to the citizen from the exercise OF
the duties of citizenship. 1t has become a
vast association of would-be beneficiaries
-beneficiaries by protection, beneficiaries
by bounties, benefciaries by official pre-
ferment. 1t has no other principles, and
the blighting influence of this corrupting
system is steadily reaching out until II is
demoralizing those who once acted on
principle, and deadening their impulses to
political honesty.
