American conflict
Yet the alarm has been so frequent
ly sounded In months gone by that, al
though Wall street. ever sensitive to
the slightest suspicion OF danger, has
hurriedly knocked down the price Of
the paper property in which it deals,
the sober American people have no ex-
pectation whatever that war will be
declared
A casus belli must first be found.
True, we might initiate the wolf
which slaughtered a sheep for muddy
ing the water below its drinking place
but we are not so anxious TO fight a
small neighbor And we have given
Spain no adequate ground for com
pisint.
The conduct OF our government in
the hands Of stout President Cleveland
was sufficiently friendly toward Spain
to offend our own people But Presi-
dent McKinleys servility MAKES the
pro-Spanish policy OF Mr.. Clevelsnd
seem in comparison the most blatant
iingoism.
Ia fact, considering that while Mr..
Mckinley pledged himself to aid the
Cubans to peace and independence, he
has done nothing whatever that can
reasonably offend Spain, 1t is just to
believe that our supine administration
cannot be persuaded, coerced, OF
kicked into ,ny line OF action that
could possibly lead to battle with
Spain.
This is not saying that the admins
tration has not encouraged the wal
talk. Horrible as war is to retired
sutler, some subjects must be ever
more unwelcome TO Mr.. Mckinley
The currency, for instance, Is night
mare at the white house. The tariff
is a white elephant The constantly
increaaing and unparalleled deficits o.

calculated to make certain tall
dignified gentleman bite his thumbs il

seeks to turn the conversation anC
make bid for popularity by pretend
ing we are about to be warred upon q
a result Of his imaginary Americanism
Nothing prevents it. The Wal

Boiling TO death was once a punish,
ment inflicted in special cases IN Eng
land four being on record. The first
happened in 1882. when a man was
'sodden in a chaldron In Smithfleld."
In 1882 a retrospective act OF psrlia-
ment was passed to deal with the case
OF John Roose. cook, who had polls
oned some food In the kitchen of the
bishop OF Rochester and he suffered in
a similar way. In the same year maid
servant was boiled TO death at Kings
Lynn for poisoning her mistress. In
1912 another maid suffered the same
fate for poisoning in three households
IN which she had lived. The horrible
nature OF the punishment is partly ex-
plained by the fact that II was only
employed against prisoners, and TO
check an almost unknown form OF
crime imported into England from the
continent

TUE ONO ELECTION.

The most ardent and enthusiastic
administration Republican can draw
no consolation from the election re
turns OF Ohio. Twist aud anRlyze
them as they may the unpalatAble
fact presents itself that the admins.
tration was disgraeefully slaughtered
in it's home state. 1t was confidently
expected that the state would be car.
ried by the Republicans by the usual
majority for both the state and legis-
lative tickets. They had a right TO
expect this from the Republican ma.
iorities in the state for the last several
years, and the fact that the president
himself with several members of his
cabinet took IN exceedingly active
part IN the canvass Of the state and
even remained IN the state on the day
OF the election for the purpose OF in-
huencing the result, canno be
otherwise than peculiarly mortifying
and is filled with q significance far
from cheering to the administration.
For the last several years the Repub
licans have carried the state with ma
iorities ranging from $4,000 TO 1877, 900.
In 1899 Mckinley was elected governor
by sO,955 plurality. In 1884 the state
ticket was elected by a plurality Of
is7,Os7 la 1895 Bushnell was elected
governor by 9a,6e9 plurality, and out
OF a total membership OF l49 in the
legislature the Republicans had lis on
joint ballot
Last year Mckinley carried the state
over Bryan by AZ, 497, and the state
ticket was elected by 81, $40.
The election Just over has wiped
these great majorities completely of
the political chequer- board and the
Republican majority on joint ballot,
II they have q majority at all, whieh Il
not yet conceded, viii not exceed FIVE
There can be no consolation TO the
Republican party aud especially thu
administration from the result in
Ohio, aud more particularly is this the
case when il is considered that Ohio Il
MeKinley's home state where he has
always been very popular with tho
people, and that in the late canvass
the whole power OF the administration
was exerted to prevent u diminutioI
in the usual majority given TO the Re
publican ticket, aud that in order /,
insure this every speech from the frs
TO the last was an appeal TO the prid'
Of the people 10 sustain the presiden
In his home state.
The effort 70 extract consolation
from the election in the Buckeye stat
is a painful one 70 the administration
and may be likened to the griE OF "a
opossum when shamming death.
