consequence of proclamation of belliger-
ency. While according equal belligerent
rights, defined by public law, to each par
ty in our ports, disfavor would be impos-
sible to both, which, while nominally
equal, would weigh heavily in behalf of
Spain herself. Possessing navy and
claiming the ports of Cuba, her maritime
rights could be asserted, not only for
the military investment of the island,
but up to the margin of our own terri
torial waters. and a condition of things
would exist for which the Cubans could not
hope to create parallel while aid from
within our domain would be even more
impossible than now, with the additional
obligation of International neutrality
which we would perforce assume.
VIII Intervene When Necessary.
Sure of the right, keeping free from all
offenSe ourselves, actuated only by up
right and patriotic consi derations, moved
neither by passion nor selfiShness, the
government will continue its watchful
care over the rights and property OF
American citizens and will abate none of
its efforts to bring about by peaceful
agencies peace which shall be honorable
and enduring. If it shall hereafter be a
duty imposed by our obligations to our
selves, to civilization and humanity to
intervene with force, 1t shall be without
fault on our part. and only because the
necessity for such action will be so clear
as to command the support and approval
of the civilized world.

dress to Congress.

To the Senate and House of Representa-
tives: 1t gives me pleasure to extend
greeting to the 55th congress assembled
in regular session at the seat of govern
ment, with many of whose senators and
representatives 1 have been associated
in the legislative service The meeting oc-
curs under felieitous conditions, justify
ing sincere congra tulation and calling for
our grateful acknowledgment to a be-
neficent providence which has so signaily
blessed and prospered US a nation.
Peace and good will with all the nations
of the earth continue unbroken.@
"A matter of genuine satisfaction is the
growing feeling of fraternal regard and
unification of all sections of our country,
the incompleteness of which has too long
delayed realization of the highest blessings
or the Union. The spirit OF patriotism Is
universal and is ever increasing in fervor.
The public qul stions which now most en-
gross US are lifted far above either par
tisanship, prejudice or former sectional
differences. They affect every part of
our common country alike and permit of
no division on ancient lines. Questions OF
foreign policy, of revenue, the soundness
of the currency, the inviola bility of ma
tional obligations, the Improvement of the
public service, appeal to the individual con-
science of every earnest citizen, to what
ever party he belongs, or in whatever sec
tion OF the country he may reside.
The extra session of this congress which
CLOSED during July last, enacted important
legislation, and, while its full effects have
not been realized, what it has already &C
comp.ished assures us of its timeliness and
wisdom. To test it's permanent value
further timeNwin be required, and the peo-
pie, satisfied with its operation and re-
suits thus far. in no mind to withhold
from it fair trial.

NEW RAILROAD RECORD.
Union Pacific Makes the Fastest Time
in the West.

Z
in the West.
Omaha, Neb., Dec. 7.-Celebrating
it's new birthday, the new Union Pa
cific has taken two more falls out of
Father Time and has set pace for fast
running that will likely stand in the
West for some time. Three record
breaking spurts in one week is it's rec
ord. The first was done last Tuesday.
At that time, 52O-mile run was made
at the rate of 60 u miles an hour, with
a 1OO-mile dash at the rate of 68.2
miles an hour.
Yesterday, the fast mail was again
late in Wyoming, and was danced
across the Nebraska plains at a rate
that makes Tuesdays run look slow.
1t covered 40 miles, from Sidney to
Julesburg, in 38 minutes; 81 miles,
from Julesburg to North Platte, in II
minutes; so miles, North Platte to Lex
ington, in 80 minutes; 35 miles, Lex
ington to Kearney. in 33 minutes. and
final dash of 40 miles, from Kearney
to Grand Island, in SO minutes, or 20
miles an hour. The 26l miles from
oluHey w 0IdHu AslaAu was Inaue III
238 minutes, an average of 65.6 miles
an hour. From Grand Island to Omaha
the speed was ordinary, the lost time
having been made up.
Today the Union Pacific brought
theatrical company on special train
from Julesburg to Council Bluffs, 294
miles, in 286 minutes. From this
must be deducted five minutes for
changing engines at Grand Island;
four minutes by Missouri Pacific
train on the crossing at Petrol, and
necessary slowing up through Omaha,
and a slow run over the Missouri river
bridge. The actual running time of
the train was 275 minutes, an average
of 63.6 miles an hour.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.
Room for Further Improvement,
Which VIII BE Made.

The important branch of our govern
ment known as the civil service, the prac-
tical Improvement of which has long b en-
a subject of earnest discussion, has of
late years received increased legislative
and executive approval. During the past
few months, the service has been placed
on a still frmer basis of business meth
DDS and personal merit While the right
of our veteran soldiers to reinstatement
in deserving cases has been asserted, dis
m.ssals for merely political reasons have
been carefully guarded against, the exam
nations for admittance to the service
enlarged and at the same time rendered
less technical and more practical, and a
distinct advance has been made by giving
a hearing before dismissal upon all cases
where incompetency is charged or de-
mand is made for removal Of officials in
any of the departments.
This order has been made to give the ac-
cused his right to be heard without in
any way fmpairing the power of removal,
which should always be exercised in cases
of inehciency or ineompetency, and which
is one of the safeguards of the civil SER
vice reform system, preventing stagna-
ton and deadwood and keeping every
employe keenly alive to the fact that Sc
curity of tenure depends not on favor,
but on his own tested and carefully
watched record of service. Much, of
course, still remains to be accomplished
perfect for our needs. There are places
now in the classified service which ought
to be exempted and others unclassified
may properly be included. I shall not hes
.itate to exempt cases which 1 think have
been improperly included. in the classified
service or include those which, in my judg-
ment, will best promote the public SER
vice. The system has the approval of the
people and it will be my endeavor to up
hold and extend it.
l am forced by the length of this mes
sage to omit many important references
to affairs of the government with which
congress will have to deal at the present
session. They are fully discussed in the
departmental reports, to all of which I
invite your earnest attention.
The estimates of the expenses of the
government by the several departments
should have your careful scrutiny. While
congress may ind 1t an easy task to re-
duce the expenses of the government, it
should not encourage their increase.
These, expenses will, in my Judgment, adj
NIT of decrease in many branches Of
the government without injury to the pub
lie service 1t is a commanding duty to
keep the appropriations within the re-
ceipts of the government and thus prevent
deficit. WILLIAM MCKINLEY.
