THE SPANISH CRISIS.

The political crisis which has been i'm
pending in Spain for some time has come in
form that may have important conse-
quences. A change of ministry under pres
ent conditions is a portentous event for
Spain, and she will be exceedingly fortu-
nate if it is accomplished without a revo-
luton 1t certainly will involve a radical
change of policy towards Cuba that has
been the dividing line between the two par
ties in Spanish politics for some time past,
the ministerial party insisting on vigor-
Gus war policy in Cuba and the Liberals
bitterly opposing the cruel practices of
General Weyer and insisting on milder
methods. The change of ministry means
that the Liberals will come into power The
crisis was FASTENED by the refusal of the
Liberals to take part in the deliberations
of the Cortes since the recent slapping in
open session of a prominent Liberal by the
minister of foreign affairs. Senior Ca.lovas
del Castillo, the retiring minister, gives as
the reason of his resignation that he could
not again undertake to re-establish rela-
lions with the Liberals, but it looks a little
as if he were making this an excuse for
letting go and abandoning a hopeless cause
He certainly must have realized for some
time past that the Cuban war policy is a
failure and that, in view of Spain's ex-
hausted finances and the growing discon-
tent at home, it could not be pursued much
longer. In common phrase, he had got to
the end Of his rope, and resignation was
the easiest way out of a desperate situa-
ton. That being the case almost any pre-
text would serve. Senior Canovas has been
prime minister since March a. 1895, and the
present Cortes was elected in April, 1885,
for five years. If the change of ministry
involves a new election the political revo-
luton is likely to be complete and if a Lib
eral ministry is formed Senior Sagasta, the
Liberal leader in the Cortes for some time
past, will doubtless become prime minister
While the accession of a Liberal ministry
would mean change of policy in Cuban
affairs it would not necessarily imply Gu
ban independence. No party in Spain ia
terms, but the Liberals hold that Cuba can
never be brought to a feeling of loyalty by
such methods as WeyIer has been using,
and that peace should be secured through
diplomacy and concessions. If the Cuban
insurgents are willing to accept peace on
the basis of political reforms and qualified
home rule they can probably get such
terms from a Liberal ministry. All this,
however is somewhat speculative, as in
the present condition of affairs in Spain,
the change of ministry may precipitate
revolution

INDIANA DEMOCRATIC LOSSES.

A Washington correspondent reports an
old politician at the capital as saying that
the Democracy of no other State have suf-
fered so severely in recent years in the loss
of leaders as the Democracy of this State.
Going back little more than ten years the
speaker enumerated Hendricks, Mcdonald,
Gray and Voorhees, among the recognized
Democratic leaders who have died within
that time. These were all popular leaders
of more than average ability, though Mr..
Mcdonald in some respects the ablest man
of the lot, was the least of popular leader.
Messrs. Hendricks and Voorhees, had more
of a national reputation than either Nc
Donald or Gray, though as party Or
ganzer and machine politician Gray was
superior to any Of them. Hendricks i'm
pressed one as the most of a statesman,
Mcdonald was the fairest fighter, Voorhees,
the best speaker and Gray the best organ
izer. They were all able leaders, and their
party misses them. There is not another
Democrat of their class left in the State.
Governor Matthews has a pleasing address
and some popular parts but he is poor
politician and an unsafe leader. He lacks
staying qualities and is like a trotting horse
that breaks. Turpie is a lucky accident
and it is 81 continuing wonder how he ever
happened. He is not to be mentioned in
the category of leaders. There are always
bright young men coming on in both
parties, but there are none in sight in the
Democratic party who give promise of fill
ing the places of those above named who
have passed away.
But the greatest loss the Indiana Democ-
racy has suffered in recent years has not
been in leaders. though it is practically
leaderless to-day. A party can easily sur
vive the loss of leaders, but it takes a long
time to recover from the loss of principles
When the Democracy of Indiana deserted
the standard of Jeffersonian ard Jack
sonian Democracy and adopted set of
Populistic principles which those departed
statesmen would have spat upon, it suf-
fered a loss in prestige and traditional con-
sistency far greater than any loss of lead
erS could be.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1897-06-04

The benefits which farmers derive from
a protective tariff are, for the most part,
indirect. Home manufactures make a mar
ket for the products of a varied agricul-
ture and horticulture which is not other
wise available. If the home market for
fruits, vegetables, eggs, poultry milk, etc..
which cannot be shipped any considerable
distance here in Indiana, were lost, farm
ers in the vicinity of the manufacturing
towns would discover that they had lost
most essential feature of their revenue. No
class of producers felt the pinch of the
free-trade depression in the summer of 1893
and during 1894 more keenly in this vicin-
ity than did those who supply the market
with what is known as truck. This was
because the volume of wages paid in and
about the city shrank at least one-third
These prices are low now because the mass
of people who will purchase literally of
such products when they have the means
are yet obliged to buy sparingly.
There are several branches of agriculture
which have suffered directly from the pres
ent tariff law. The sheep industry is one
and the cattle industry is another The
German bill changed the duty on cattle
from specific to ad valorem. The result has
been practically free trade in cattle, since
a duty of 20 per cent. on animals appraised
at 81 or 81 per head neither affords protec-
ton to the American cattle-grower nor
revenue to the treasury. In 1892, under the
Mckinley law, 2,036 head of cattle were i'm
ported, while in 1895, under the present law.
227000 head We're brought into the United
States. During the time that law has been
in effect nearly 100000 cattle have been
brought into the United States. The bring
ing of that number of cattle into this coun-
try from Mexico has filed the market in
the adjacent country with a superb bun
dance of inferior cattle, making the grow
ing of a better grade less profitable than it
was years ago. While the best cattle are
not much cheaper. the lower grades have
been so cheap as to add to the general de-
preston of which farmers complain. The
House bill practically restores the duties
cattle which We're imposed by the Nc
Kinley law. The Senate bill.is not so sat
isfactory to cattle-growers as is the House
bill. For that reason cattle-growers favor
the House schedule.

THE FLAG AS A WORK OF ART.

The Sentinel insists that the American
American art, such as ought to character
ize the great stone groups which are to
flank the soldiers monument. If this could
be proven-and perhaps it could be if old
Bill Jones were alive-it would be another
reason for loving and reverencing the flag,
but in the absence of credible expert testi-
mony the statement must be received with
doubt. If the flag is indeed a work of art
it is the joint product of many artists, none
of whom ever professed to be such or ever
attempted any other work IN that line
Moreover, it is partly borrowed art for all
the colors, red, white and blue, appeared
in the flags of various other nations before
ours was adopted, and it did not require
combination of them. The placing of the
white stars on the blue field was an after
thought with the artists, who wanted TO
substitute something for the crosses of ST.
George and st. Andrew, which occupied the
field of the flag first raised by Washington,
at Cambridge, JAM 2, ZIG, and carried by
the first American fleet that raised it. The
artists did not object to the crosses of st.
George and St. Andrew for artistic rea-
sons. but as they were going to start in
business for themselves they wanted a sign
that should be different from any other, so
they substituted stars for the crosses still
retaining the three coiors Of red, white and
