On the other hand, It Is probable that
[if the United States interferes directly
in the interest Of the Cubans there will
be war with Spain. Il IS against the
spirit Of . peaceful, religious, and high
minded people to provoke war. The
people Of this country have 50 strongly
approved the policy Of arbitration that
they look forward to war with horror,
and on the first impulse the majority Of
the people would condemn any action
likely to precipitate war between the u
snited States and Spain; but the second
sober. thought is likely to accept the in
evitable, because every one will argue
that it is better to settle the Cuban qnes-
ton On the basis Of fairness and justice,
even if the insistence of such settle
ment leads to war.
a war with Spain would inevitably
result in the independence Of Cuba and
with independence would be removed oil

situation. The island would he no long
er a menace to this country and no long
er disgrace to civilization. Such a re-
suit might be secured without war, but
it should be secured, even if war comes.
The threat of war to a nation pledged
to the right and sympathizing with a
people should have little in
duence. The United States should do
the right thing regardless of consequences.
The object to be- attained is the ending
of the present savage and bloody war
fare in Cuba. Compared with the evils
of the present conflict war with Spain is
as nothing. In insisting that the C,tbans
he treated fairly and in accordance with
the laws of civilized warfare, the United
States is not inviting war with Spain or
any other nation, but is simply standing
by the right and protesting against the
wrong. If standing by the right, if pro-
test against butchery and cruelty, if in
reference in behalf of a prosecuted, dis
tressed, and suffering people, bring war,
let it come. Chicago Inter Ocean.

In England the "fules of the road" re-
quire foot passengers to keep to the right,
and horsemen and vehicles to keep to
the left. Some years ago o learned JUS
tice looked into the matter, and thus ex-
planned it: "The foot traveller" he OBJ
served, "in ancient times passed to the
right In order that the shield, which
was carried on the left arm might be il
-tsrposed to ward of tfeaehereas blow,
while the right arm, or the sword arm,
was left free for action. Horsemen, on
the other hand, were accustomed to
wearing suits OF mail for the protection
OF their bodies, and 1t was believed that
there was greater safety In having the
arm actively employed In defence and
attack nearer to the enemy than to have
TO strike at him across the horses neck ;
hence the horseman passed to the left,
and vehicles were naturally required to
do the same" This seems like plausi-
BILE reason, but In the United States It has
been considered safer to have the rules OF
the road tho same for pedestrians as well
as for horsemen and vehicles; hence in
this country the rule OF the highway Is to
pass to the right. Possibly We choose
the right in preference to the left on the
simple proposition that II you turn TO the
right you cannot 60 wrong. g.--Harper's
Round Table.

Atlanta University, at its approaching
commencement, will inaugurate series
OF conferences OF its graduates to discuss
the condition Of negroes living in cities.
There are about !, 1850, 600 OF such negroes,
or one-sixth OF the entire negro popula-
tion OF the country. Their condition
differs widely from that OF the planta-
tion negroes and gives rise 10 set OF
problems of great interest and Importance
not only to themselves but to the white
race as well
These problems are being carefully
studied Dy some OF the graduates OF the
university, and their Investigations will
form the basis Of the proposed confer
epces. As . large majority of the gradu-
ates are working for the uplifting d their
race In the cities and larger towns OF the
south, their opportunities for such inves-
LEGATIONS are unrivalled. and IL Is hoped
that some valuable results may be secur-
ed.
The special subject OF the first confer
ence will be the reduction OF mortality
among negroes living in cities. Carefully
compiled data as to the present high
death rate will be presented. Its causes
will be sought and remedies suggested.
The preliminary direction OF the con fer
ence is in the hands OF one of the trus-
tees OF the university, Mr.. George g.
Bradford OF Boston, IN consultation with
Professor Edward Cummings Of Harvard
and other specialists in sociology.

The Cost Of Empire.

With colonies In every part of the
globe, England Is peculiatly vulnera BILE
to attack, and the weakest ano smallest
possession must receive as great attention
for defence and protection as the strong
est and largest. Towards the maipten-
ance of the navy no dependency contri-
butes, anc the entire cost Is borne by
the people OF the United Kingdom.
The same condition applies to coun-
tries other than England which have been
reaching out for colonial empire.
In no instance 10 the depen dency OF suffi.
foreign relations on which peace or war
so largely depends The first cost Of en-
pire, therefore, Is involved In the expense
of a navy; and that this Is true the an
nual expenses Of the navy may be COM
pared with the territorial expanse to be
protected. Germany has entered upon
colonial enterprise more recently than
France, and its possessions are OF less ex-
tent; yet It's navy costs each year nearly
SIS, 900, COO France, with two and half
times the extent OF colonial territory, ap-
propriates S49, 600, 600 for the same pur-
pose. The United Kingdom spends less,
proportionately, in naval expenses, but Is
obliged to expend $40, 00O, 600 year. and
Is In perpetual fear lest It's naval effi-
cheney fall below a strength necessary to
cope with the ambitions and lealousies
of other powers. II Italy and Russia be
included, the total expenditure in an
ordinary yesr on this arm of the service 10
300, ,OOo, 600 land in an extraordinary year,
under the influence of war scsre, half as
much again may be appropriated to
build and equip new ships, measure
which involves additional expenditures
In many directions.
A similar estimate OF the cost OF the
army would give an even greater sum.
For every dollar annually spent on the
navy, three are expended on the army,
and the ive powers named pay out for
the service $500, 600, 900 each year. OF this
one half may be considered as necessary
for home defence aud To cover the educa-
tional advantages incident to the system I;
the other half may DO set down as the re-
quirsments for imperial defence. IL we
allow one-third of tho naval expenditure
and one-half Of the military expenditure

the empire requires, there romans an

The new special thirty-foot class OF
yachts promises to be OF great deal OF
interest when the racing season opens.
international contests this season are
limited 10 one--the half raiers, and the
presidential contest may have an infiu-
ence in quieting Yacht racing. Bnt tho
clubs in New York. Boston and our Rhode
Island Yacht Club win undoubtedly give
us their usual interesting program of
events and we shah, OF course, have the
big Goolet cup regatta during the New
York Yacht Club cruise.
The seasons novelty, however, will be
| found in the thirty-foot class that now
promises TO replace for interest the forty
foot class OF several seasons and the
| twenty one foot class OF couple of years
ago. The thirty-foot class calls for a boat
between twenty-nine and thirty feet on
| the water line and the sail plan is re-
stricted to between $50 and 1000 square
| feet OF canvas Their length over all can
not exceed forty-three feet, and the
| cockpit and cabin house must not be
over fourteen or less than thirteen feet.
| The crew is limited to four,Fot which
three can be paid hands, and al ballast
must be permanent and outside of the hull.
Metallic or weighted ceutreboards are
barred and the draught cannot exceed Z
feet inches. Owing to the conditions
governing this class all OF the boats will
be fin keels.
At last thirteen OF these boats will be
sfioat, all but two of them, we believe,
built by HERREsHoFF, the entire Bristol
list being OF one design and mould They
are made to the oider OF prominent
| yacbtsmen, many OF whom own larger
craft aud they are built for the pure fun
Of the sport to be got out OF such class.
thirty-footers will. we understand, accept
their boats by lot and there will doubt
less be some rare seamanship exemplified
| in their racing before the season is over.
| Their models will be tested against a
couple of boats built from designs by
WINTRINoHAM and GARDNER, which
may make things interesting for the
HERREsHoFF eleven.
