HELP THE Y. NJ. c. A.

The efforts of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association to pay off the aoating
Indebtedness should receive every enc0ur-
agement ut the hands of the people of this
city. The good work done by the associa-
tions here cannot well be overestimated.
In giving the young men place to stop
at, and in drawing them away from temp
tation, the associations confer upon them
benefits far-reaching in their effects. The
amount needed by the Roanoke associa-
tion to discharge it's debt IS not large, all
things considered, and its plan adopted to
raise the money is one that ought to meet
with speedy success. Every man who
has sons approaching manhood ought to
lend his best assistance to the movement,
and all young men able to give should
likewise contribute to the fund now being
raised. The movement is one that ap-
peals strongly TO all who have the in
terests and welfare of the community at
heart, and as the strain upon their gener-
osity is not heavy, they cannot better
show their Willingness to help Il good
cause than by subscribing such q sum as
they think their means will permit.

conditions which obtain in Cuba, means.
II those persons who looked for tue imme
diate adoption of vigorous policy by the
new administration find any reason Tor
disappointment it is due to Il change of at
titude on the part of the Spanish author-
tiles. The Spanish have had notice served
on them that tue course which they fol-
lowed freely during the Cleveland admin
stration will not be tolerated by the Nc
Kinley administration. They are there
fore not proceeding with such high
hand. There is II thorough understands
ing on rheir part that their license has
expired. Much surprise was expressed
when. Mr.. Sherman, knowing that San
gully was about to be given his liberty,
repoI ted from the Senate foreign relations
committee the resolution demanding San
guilly's release. But now the fruits are
beginning to develop. This action by Mr..
Sherman just before taking Up the respon'
sibilities of the State Department. has
been received by the Spanish government
rs Il warning, such as it was intended to
ministration considerable trouble. 10
avoid trouble it was desirable that the
Spanish government should be warned in
advance and that it should be understood
that unjust interference with American
citizens would not be tolerated.
The result of this warning is
seen in the release of n number
of American prisoners in Cuba with
out direct threat of force having to
be made, and it is unnecessary for the new
administration to engage in any buster in
order to make its position known. 1t is
not necessary for the new administration
to assume n threatening attitude. 1t is
well understood that the military laws
will be enforced in the manner usual
among nations, but that there ,vill be no
extraordinary steps taken to assist Spain
in maintaining her sovereignty over Cuba.
Mr.. Cleveland's course of direct antago
pism to the Cubans will not be accepted
as an example to be followed. The United
States navy will not be placed ut the dis
posal of the Spanish minister for the pur
pose of blockading commerce between the
United States and Cuba. Violations of
the neutrality law will be prosecuted and
unusual and proper precautions will be
taken to enforce the law, but it is not I'M
derstood that an embargo is to be put on
trade.

The situation in Crete is critical in the
extreme. The great powers seem deter
mined to take control of the island and
Greece will probably have to succumb.
She cannot fight all of Europe, and as
there seems no disposition on the part of
England, Austria, France and Russia
especially to let her have her way in re-
gard to Crete, no alternative is left but to
retire from the situation rs gracefully rs
possible. The sinking of Greek trans
port by an Austrian gunboat shows that
the crisis has been reached and that IL de
cision one way or another must be made.

THE CUBAN POLICY.

That the Spanish authort ties have sud-
denly come to realization that American
citizens in Cuba have rights which must
be respected is apparent to all who have
watched the recent course of events on
the island. Prisoners have been released
who had long been held without trial
and the general disposition of the Span
iards appears to be towards the mainte-
nance of the most friendly relations with
this government The cause of this APP
parent change is not hard to discover.
Consul. General Lees revolt against the
cowardly course of the Cleveland admin
istration and the knowledge of the Span
iards that he is backed in his course by
the unanious approval of his countrymen
has no doubt helped materially to inn
prove the situation, and besides the Span
iards are already aware of the fact that
the government at Washington now is
not the same that it was II few months
ago. They have every reason to believe
that, while there is no desire for terrific
rial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT on the, part of the
present administration that it WILL, so far
as Cuban affairs are concerned, enforce
strict neutrality. American citizens both
by birth and adoption will lie protected
in all their rights, and that the represen
tatives of Spain in Cuba have discovered
this already, is apparent from the re.
markable leniency they are now display.
ing towards all such rs have come under
the ban of their displeasure since the
commencement of the revolution. While
it is evident that the administration will
not tolerate improper imprisonment of
American citizens in Cuba, there is, nc,
ertheless, much speculation as to what
Will he it's real course towards the Span
iards in Cuba, and while it has been an
nounced that policy of strict neutrality
will be followed, it is plain that there
will be no yielding to Spain on every
question, rs was done by Mr.. Cleveland
and Secretary Olney. The Washington
Star, in discussing the matter says: The
attitude of the new administration to-
thoroughly understood The impress
sion has gotten abroad in certain quar-
tiers that there is to he II continuation of
the policy of the Cleveland admnistra-
tion. The action of the cabinet with re
spect to the clearance OF the Dauntless is
likely to beiuterpreted by those who do not
understand the situation as confirming
this impression. The fact is that Mr.
CIeveland's course will he avoided There
may he little difference in the "decaration
of policy for the policy of maintaining
neutrality declared by Mr.. Cleveland was
all right, except that in it's application
he actually favored the Spanish and
placed this country in the attitude Of pas
sive submssiveness while outrages were
perpetrated upon American citizens.
Under this administration the declaration
will be practically the same, but the in
depreciation and application will be
different.
