RIOTS AND DISORDERS.

The students of Princeton college
might be in better business than burn
ing the king of Spain in effigy. Dem
onstrations of that character are to
be expected from the students OF Spain
and France, who take occasion always
to indulge in riotous proceedings at
every turn of the political tide. Ameri-
can college students sustain a reputa-
ton for greater dignity and conserva-
tism, and 1t Is to be hoped that .une
example set by the Princeton boys will
not be followed.
With all the war talk of the last
three months the people of the United
States have kept themselves under ex-
cellent control. while in Spain and
Italy, as we have just witnessed, the
infiammable populaces have INDUCED
in wild outbreaks OF temper and more
or less serious disorders. In Italy es-
pecially the situation is still serious. In
Spain the manifestations of hostility
to the United States consist in trailing
the American flag in the dust and ston-
ing the buildings of the American con-
sulate. Such insults make the blood
of every loyal American boil with in
dignation, but 1t is to our credit that
we do not retaliate in kind.

CRISPJ RESIGNS.

Early last evening Italy's troubles
seemed to have reached a climax in
report which was to the effect that
The rumor proved to be unfounded; the
Italian incident closes with the pre-
mier's resignation. But for the few
hours of turbulence that have lately
caught public attention, the newspaper
readers would hardly have heard of
him or of the foolish venture that led
20 his downfall.
During the years of Crispi's suprem-
acy. the history of Italy has not been
of especial interest-it has lacked the
qualities that were picturesque in the
days of Cavour and Garibaldi and
Victor Emmanuel. The petty conten-
tions Of more recent times in Italy have
related largely to domestic affairs-it
was the premier's chief duty TO quiet
as best he could a kingdom that was
turbulent because prevailing poverty
made King Humbert's subjects restless.
Italy has been at peace because the
state was left to rely on the friendli-
ness of Russia and Germany in all that
concerned foreign relations; as soon as
the premier's unaccountable ambition
carried into schemes for conquest. dis
aster was inevitable-the Abyssinian
affair was a reckless venture for which
a reasonably good excuse cannot be
furnished.
However. Crispi will rank as one of
the great ministers in a century that
has developed conspicuously brilliant
premiers. In early life he was an agi-
tator. When young. as journalist, he
was often charged with incendiary
publications. He became a member OF
the Italian parliament and was con-
spicuous in public affairs. He was the
powerful opponent of the clerical party
and has opposed with great vigor the
restoration Of the pope's temporal SOW
ereignty. His diplomacy caused Italy
TO join the triple alliance. in which
Italy became Joined TO Austria and
Germany. There is neither glory foi
Italy nor credit for Premier Crispi In
the events that have eliminated in his
retirement; indeed, career in which
is much that was brilliant seems e
have reached close which. apparently
is as unworthy as IL is sudden.

EFFECTS OF RECOGNITION.

One of the chief purposes of the
granting of belligerent rights to the
Cubans is to prevent the Spaniards
from treating the captured prisoners as
mere traitors. 1t is intended to stop
the butchery of the Cubans. Nearly
everybody understands that, but in re-
spect of other effects of recognition
there is in the popular mind much ig-
norance and confusion.
It is true that recognition will i'm
pose some disadvantages and possibly
some embarrassments upon the United
States. We should understand in the
first place that at the present time the
American merchant marine is entitled
to free access to Cuban ports so long
as its ships do not violate the laws
that are respected in relation to each
other by friendly powers. II belligerent
rights be guaranteed to the Cuban in
surgents Spanish cruisers will have the
right of visit and search of our mer-
chant shipping, which will thereby in
cur the risk of grievous injury. So
long as belligerent rights are not grant
ed to the insurgents Spain cannot
blockade the Cuban ports. II belliger-
ent rights be granted the United States
must concede to Spain the right of
blockade. Again, If the belligerent
rights be granted the government of
Spain cannot be held responsible for
injury to American property in Cuba.
Theodore S. Woolsey. professor of in
We 10
says of the effects of recognizing the
beiiigerency of the Cuban insurgents
that while IL would give the insurgents
certain secondary rights in regard TO
neutrals and a somewhat higher stand
ing, II also would give Spain much
more important privileges, among them
the right of search on the high seas,
the right to blockade Cuban ports, and
immunity from responsibility for dam
ages done to American property by the
Cuban insurgents. Spain, in his opin-
ion. would gain rather than lose from
recognition of belligerency by this
country.
The generally accepted description OF
the conditions justifying accordance OF
belligerent rights involves ''the exist
ence of a de facto political organiza-
ton of the insurgents sufficient in char.
acter, population and resources to con.
stitute 1t, II left to itself. a state among
the nations. reasonably capable of dis
charging the duties of a state" and al
