THE VIZCAYA AND THE MAINE.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
The Spanish cruiser Vizcaya, which ar
rived at the port of New York in the
midst of the public excitement over the
loss Of the Maine at Havana, has left
our harbor as safe and sound as she
came.
The precautions of the port authorities
to guard the Spanish vessel from all harm
were thorough and effective and the ex-
treme to which these precautions were
carried is lerhaps best illustrated by
the fact that even the Holland submarine
Dcat was specially watched by the Mar
keeta, which anchored a short distance
from her, although the new craft had
not even had her trial trip. Only after
the Vizcaya had sailed, although the sub
marine boat had meantime been searched
and no explosive found, was the Narkeeta
called off.
The government, in short, accepted its
responsibility for the security of for
eign vessel of war visiting its waters on n
expected of the American people that,
even in the tumult of emotion wrought
up by the awful catastrophe to The
Maine, not so much as a slight or a slur
would be put upon the Vizcaya. But the
| point just now is that the United States
government assumed its need of using
| diligence to prevent the blowing up of
| the visiting cruiser or any injury
| to it, whether by open violence or secret
| machnation.
| To responsibility like that which our
| authorities assumed for the Vizcaya s
safety we shall assuredly hold SPAN,
should the official investigation trace to
| foul play in Havana the loss of the Maine.

German Exclusiyeuess.

\ decree issued last week BY the
Prussian government forbidding the
future attendance of foreigners in the
machinery and engineering department
Of the Berlin technical school ia thus
explained by high official in that
government who was interviewed by
the Associated Press: There is no
question that the German chronological
schools and industrial and scientific
institutions will soon be forced to adopt
less liberal policy with foreigners.
The tricks of trade we have been
teaching them so long are now being
used against us to the great injury of
our industry, This is especially the
case with students of such countries
as Japan, Russia and East Europe: but
also, in "A lesser degree, with the stu
dents Of England. America, France and
Belgium" The Berlin correspondent
of the Associated Press adds: THE
American university students here ex-
press the opinion that the government
will shortly issue a decree restricting
the attendance at universities. As over
1000 Americans are now studying at
German universities, it will hit them
hard
This gloomy forboding may or may
not prove true. The chances are that
1t will not. To expel foreigners from
universities would be equivalent on
Germany's part to a confession of fear
and that would be an undignified con-
fession to make. But before Americans
become excited at the threat they
should reflect that an action of the
character indicated would be fully
within Germany's rights and we should
have, therefore, no just reason to COM
pain. Our congress has established
the principle that we can keep foreign
wage-earners out of the United States
If we want to. even going so far as to
pass a law fOrbidding the Canadian

that border in search Of American en-
ployment. Should Germany at some

ticularly her trade schools must not

THE NATIONAL GUARD.

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
There is probably no portion of the Ma
tional Guard that could not meet on equal
terms, In the matter of arms, any regu-
lar European army. In its personnel, in
individual courage, physical strength,
endurance, spirit and Intelligence the
National Guard is probably very much
superior to any regular European army.
Properly armed. probably fifty per cent.
of the National Guard could now face in
the field with some chance of success an
equal force, say $1,000 men of any regular
European army. Probably eighty per
cent of 1t would fight as efficiently be-
hind defensive work as any troops in
the world and would be able to give
good account of an equal or even larger
European attacking force. SO far we
have considered the state troops with
reference TO their fitness to face the
best troops I'm Europe, tho forces of Ger
many, of France of England of Russia.
AS to their fitness to face the troops of
Spain, IL the performances of the Span
ish army in Cuba furnish a fair test of
It's efficiency, we can afford to be less
conservative. We believe that the Ma
tional Guard, taken as a whole, would
prove, from the first, superior In every
respect, save armament. to any army
that Spain can now present, and that it
could be implicitly trusted within twen-
ty-four hours Of it's mobilization, to meet
and beat, even with its present arms. u

A Postal Mystery.

The chairman of the house COM
mittee on postal affairs, Mr. Loud,
author of the bill of his name to re-
adjust the rates of postage on Sec
ond-class mail matter, in this months
North American Review returns to
the attack. THE people who send
first class matter-ordinary letters and
postal cards-and who make UP the
postal deficit, are" he thinks, "en-
titled to some privileges. They pay
annually about seventy million dol
lars upon as many pounds of matter,
as against the three million dollars
which 365,OO0,O00 pounds of second
class matter yield, or a dollar a POUND
for one as against a cent for the
other. Unless the second-class priv
ilege is restricted to it's legitimate uses
the time will come when the tax-pay-
ing public will go beyond the point
of reason and equity i'm correcting
this disparity, and all publishers will
suffer the penalty of wrongs too long
unredressed."
After showing that the great sink
hole in the finances of the Dostoffice
department lies in notorious abuse of
the secoud-class privilege whereby
all kinds of literary dead wood and
trash are carried through the mails
at a cost to the government of cents
per pound but for n public charge Of
one cent only, he continues: Patrons
of the postofiice should be treated
equally under the law, and the bene-
ficiaries of the taxpayers bounties
should be those interests which 1t IL
acknowledged public policy to promote
While the newspapers and mag eazines
as educators and moulders of public
sentiment are doubtless entitled to cer-
tain privileges, this theory does not
involve as a logical consequence that
the government should carry rubber
boots through the nails at a great
loss, even though an old almanac Joke
| were pasted on the left heel"
The public is with Chairman Loud
in the demand for a stricter safeguard.
