apparently desire it to be, but in the cir
cumspect diction of diplomatic usage,
and for this we applaud him. AT any rate
until these gentlemen know more Of
the presidents policy than there is rea-
SON to believe they now know, it will be
the part Of good breeding and common
sense, as we'll as of patriotism, for them
to keep their mouths resolutely shut.
This will require uncommon self-denial
on their part, but mayhap the discipline
and self-denial will be good for them. 1t
will certainly be good for the reputation
and happinees Of the country.

SPAIN WILL NOT FIGHT.
Mr.. Rubens Declares Spanlards viii Make
ANY Concessions Demanded.


Any Concessions Demanded.
New York, March 29-Counselor Ho-
ratio s. Rubens of the Cuban junta said
today that t. Estrada Palmas trip to
Washington has no especial significance,
as 1t had been arranged before the de-
velopments Of yesterday.
eff the United States" said Mr.. Ru-
bens, "does not want to do anything for
the Cubans, the latter will not complain,
They have gone on for three years fight
ing the Spaniards, and they will con-
tinue to fight as before, notwithstanding
the lack of Intervention on the part Of
the United States.
There is no use talking of autonomy
or anything else except the absolute in
dependence Of Cuba. We have got to
point where nothing else will or can be
discussed outside of that. The insur-
gents are in good hopes that they will
gain a decided victory during the sum-
mer campaign This is their strongest
time for fighting. While Spain cannot
be as active in the field during the sum-
mer months as in the winter, she must
be more active in other directions in
army. The insurgents can catch them
better in summer than in winter.
There is one important point to which
should like to call attention. Col. A.
NJ. Parker, who was the companion to
Senator Proctor in Cuba, states through
one Of the newspapers, that the sup
plies which are going to Cuba through
the central Cuban relief committee are
finding their way as much to the Span
a1 tn va
bans.
1--WE have received the same informa-
tion, and still we have nothing to say
against it. We are glad that the starv-
ing reconcentrados are being fed, for
they are our own flesh and blood, and
of course we can say nothing about the
feeding of the Spanish soldiery"
Mr.. Rubens said that letters and tele-
grams had been pouring in, many from
persons who have hitherto remained
conservative, declaring against the atti-
tude Of the United States. He said that
SPAIN in it's attitude to fight with the
United States, has taken the stand that
the United States would not fight at
any cost.
Spain knows that the United States
will not fight, and so she is ready to
make all manner of advances said Mr..
Rubens.
Speaking of the introduction of resolu-
tions in the senate to recognize the in
dependence Of Cuba, Mr.. Rubens said:
"The recognition of Cuban independ-
ence by the United States would not
be q casus belli. Spain will never de-
clare war. Nothing has ever arisen
between America and Spain which Spain
has not conceded, where the United
States has taken a firm stand, and
should there be a declaration of inde-
pendence, Spain will do as she has al
ways done. There is no chance what
ever of her declaring war"

the concerns that make wire nails and
the other coarse wire products, do not
compete. In other words, the advan-
tages and inducements of combination
do not appeal to the local company with
the same effect as to the western COM
panies. The great wire plant at Wau-
kegan and the cable plant at San
Francisco might feel the competition,
but the representation is that these de-
partments are in the same position of
vantage as other concerns of the west,
as respects nearness to coal and steel
supplies.

When the history of the relations of
the United States towards Spain and
Cuba comes to be told by competent,
impartial and critical writer's, we fancy
that the weight of reputable authorities
will be found on the side of President
Mckinley rather than with those in con-
gress and the press who declaim against
him because his message concerning the
findings Of the Maine inquiry board was
brief, calm and dispassionate and states
manlike, instead of breathing forth
threatenings and slaughter. If there is
any other reason than the calmness of
the presidents message for the up
roar, which has gone up from the jingo
press and jingo congressman, we have
not observed that it has been definitely
announced. These gentlemen have fired
a blunderbuss into the air. without
knowing what they were aiming at-un-
less indeed war and only war is their
object They do not know what words
the president has addressed to Spain,
and there is no obligation on his part to
divulge the precise language of his dis
patch AS between a crowd of phrenetic
| jingoes whose avowed purpose is war,
no matter what it costs or what the
cause on the one hand, and the presi-
dent of the United States. to whom the
foreign relations of the government are
stand with William Mckinley We agree
with Senator Hoar. ''who is prepared to
stand by the president in the course he
is pursuing in endeavoring to adjust the
difficulties without recourse to war;"
and who has every confidence that the
president will uphold the honor and dig
nifty of the nation" Mr.. Hoars parting
shot at the jingoes is worth quoting also
''Those gentlemen who are so eager foI
! hostilities to commence, should be GER
tain that our government is fully pre-
! pared to go to war" The support that
has lately come to the policy of inter-
vention has not been inspired by a love
of war, but by broad humanitarian
principle, and the conservative men who
| have given their approval to this policy
nave lHsISteu lndl every avenue leAulHB
to peace must be tried before war is
brought upon US. They have insisted that
Spain shall be, the one to provoke war,
and not the government or the people of
the United States. We undertake to say
that the policy of the president is mod
eled on some such lines as these. We
undertake to say further, that the presi-
dents message to the Spanish govern
ment was not couched in the language
of Corbett addressing Fitzsimmons, as

Representative Washburn's amend
ment to the bill granting graduates of
Harvard professional schools the right
to vote for overseers of the university
disposes of one Of the principal objec-

provides that before the act takes effect,
it must be accepted by majority of the
alumni now entitled to vote for over
seers. The act, of course, is first to be
adopted by the president and fellows
(the legal corporation) and by the over

Alfred Austin. poet laureate, has burst
forth in song during a pleasing dream
of Anglo-American unity. The poem can
hardly be described as a battle hymn,
though war is one of the events in
which an Anglo-Amefican alliance
would be most useful, especially to Great
Britain. 1t is, however, plea for un-
ion in order that ''the throne of the ty-
rant shall rock and quake. and his men
ace be void and vain" There is an i'm
preston that Mr.. Austin has at last
written a poem.
What is the voice ] hear
On the wind of the western sea?
Sentinel, listen from out Cape Clean
And say what the voice may be.
" "Tis a proud free people calling loud to
people proud and free.
''And it says to them, 'Kinsmen, haill
We severed have been too long;
Now let us have done with wornout
The tale of an ancient wrong,
And our friendship last long as love doth
last, and be stronger than death is
Answer them, sons Of the selfsame race,
And blood of the selfsame clan,
Let us speak with each other, face to
face,
And answer as man to man,
And loyalty love and trust each other as
none but free men can.
Now fling them out to the breeze,
Shamrock thistle and rose,
And the Star Spangled Banner unfurl
with these,
message to friends and foes,
Wherever the sails Of peace are seen and
wherever the war wind blows.
A message to bond and thraW to wake,
For wherever we come, we twain,
The throne of the tyrant shall rock and
quake
And his menace be void and vain,
For you are lords of a strong young land
and we are lords of the main.
Yes, this is the voice on the bluff March
gale,
I'VE severed have been too long;
But now we have done with wornout
tale,
The tale of an ancient wrong,
And our friendship last long as love doth
last and be stronger than death is
strong"

The crowd began gathering at the Audi

of a rush for seats. And this is the surest
proof of Mr.. SANKEY'S highest standing
among his nelghbors. The meeting at the

Mr.. Stanley no less as a candidate for
governor than personally as 4 citizen Of
Wichita
At O'Clock Mr.. Stanley came into the

there was a rush 10 shake hands with the

not to be regarded as a loser for that he
