THE CUBAN RESOLUTIONS.

The Cuban resolutions adopted by the
House of Representatives on Monday last
reminded us once more of the fact that II
,s time this great country were overhauling
international law. In his speech against
the resolutions reported by the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs, Mt
Turner. of Georgia. said that he did not
believe that a state of war such as was
understood In international law existed In
Cuba. This was Mr.. Turner'S excuse Tor
not voting for the resolution recognizing
Cuba as a belligerent power. This excuse
has been pleaded by numbers OF other
public men. and by numerous newspapers
as an all-sufflcient reason for not recog-
nizing Cuba as a belligerent power.
1t is time. therefore, that our statesmen
had begun to ponder the question whether
the international laws. under which even
republican governments are bound hand
and foot, are to exist forever. Is the
United States Government to continue to
be forever the victim of international
law? Is II a sufficient answer to ques-
tons concerning the condition OF things
in any country to be told that that con-
dition OF things. no matter how bad, If
the product OF international law? VIII
that answer be good at the end OF
hundred years? II not, upon what process
OF reasoning is the conclusion reached
that because II is in force now ii can
not BE- touched now?
All through the interesting debate In
the House of Representatives Monday on
the Cuban resolutions can be seen recog-
nitions Of the fact that the international
laws. or the laws OF nations, must be re-
spected by the United States In deal
ing with even such a government as that
of Spain. Mr.. Sulzer. of New York, ar
gued that the Cuban patriots were en-
titled by every principle of international
law TO belligerent rights. So with almost
every member, IL not every member, who
spoke on the subject.
We merely suggest that 1t may be time
to revise the international code.

FUNNY SPAIN.

The impartial, Spanish newspaper,
published in New York. attempts to be
indignant because OF the treatment Spain
has received from the United States. but
succeeds only in making itself ridiculous.
Here is a specimen of the Impareiafs
nonsense:
'If things reach the goal which Ameri-
cans desire the whole of Spain will rise
against the United States. Neither in the
Mediterranean, whose entrance we COM
mand, nor the Atlantic, will an Ameri-
can merchantmen be safe. for we shall
organize privateers on great scale. We
conquered Napoleon by guerrilla warfare
and we shall employ system OF priva-
teers to overcome trading nation.
Americans are wrong TO judge Spain
by her budget There are things which
are superior to revenue. Some merchant
captains have offered already TO arm their
steamers as privateers. captain OK
Barcelona asks for letters OF marque, Of
fering to equip and maintain the fastest
steamer at his own cost"
What else can any good American do
than laugh? Nothing is to be done touch
ing the foolish Spaniards except to make
game" of them. Uncle Sam has no UNI
kind words to employ in describing them.

SEVERAL IMPOSSIBLE THINGS.

1t 1t will be well for the Democrats OF
Virginia TO recognize several important
facts which they must take into ac-
count when they begin 10 appoint dele
gates to the Democratic State Conven-
ton in Stanton.
First, that the Democrats cannot pos
sibly carry Virginia next fall If they
rule out the Siverites.
Second, that the Democrats cannot pos
sibly carry Virginia next fall II they
rule out the sound-money men.
Third. that the Democratic party can
not possibly elect the next President Oh
the United States without the aid and
cooperation Of the sound-money men.
Fourth, that the Democratic party can
not possibly elect the next President OF
the United States without the aid and
cooperation of the free-silver coinage
Democrats.
These self-evident propositions We COM
mend 10 the consideration Of all good
Democrats.

The total receipts OF revenue OF the
government for February amounted TO
s26,O59. 22S42, and the total expenditures to
s25 931, 1888. From this 1t will be seen that
the receipts were Sl27, Si0.42 in excess OF
the expenditures. The total revenue de-
rived from customs duties was slS,SS,-
1898. or over 50 per cent. Of the grand
total. This exhibit, contends the Herald,
proyes that the amount OF customs rove-
nue. which the Wilson tariff act Is now
producing is decidedly greater than the
critics of that act expected ii would be,
and that IL any part Of the act needs re-
vision for the purpose of raising more
revenue II is not so much the part con-
tanning schedules of duties on imports
as the internal-revenue provisions.
However, the Herald does not think
that revision of any part of the act Is
really necessary; for 1t looks TO the
coming winter and fall to bring largely
increased receipts both in the matter of
customs duties and internal revenue. In
other words, 1t would seem that the
Herald agrees with Mr.. Wilson that tho
act only needs a little time in order to
vindicate itself.

I have heard the greatest artists that the

But the music that Is sweetest-surest
round my heart to creep
Is the voice that every evening softly
sings my boy TO sleep.
Singing in the twilight simple. soulful lit
tie airs,
Fragments Of some love song. old and
dear;
They touch my better nature and they
melt my heart to tears,
Just the kind OF music that Is always
good to hear;
So full OF Heavens tenderness, with love
so sure and deep,
Ia the voice that In the twilight softly
sings my boy 10 sleep.
Heart-swells from her girlhood. maybe
seeing through girlish tears,
Now doing cradle duty for her God.
They come to me like echoes from the

wings around me sweep
A listen 10 the twilight voice that
sings my boy TO sleep.
