Full well we know they're In the wrong,

Full well We know that Latin stealth must
yield to Saxon might;
We know that we can whip them on the

But all the blood will not be shed upon
the other side.
Tho victories that stand supreme arc al
ways dearly bought:
No man would think OF Waterloo II the
Frenchmen hadn't fought:
And who among us all would know Of
Gettysburg, to-day.
II Pickett had not made his charge, or
Lee had run away7
Tho good ship Maine must be avenged, and
Cuba must be free;

Of heartless pride
But all tho blood, alas. will not flow from

owing to the peculiar conditions or the
war we are conducting with Spain. there
10 nothing Encouraging, 0 no cause
for anxiety in the fact that we were a
few weeks since In a state OF funpre-
paredness, but the lesson for the future
is no less important for all that. Those
In the country who were a short time
ago demanding war did not seem to real
lie the gigantic task that was before
the government In preparing for Yar
after Il was declared, instead OF first
having the feet and the army on q wnr
footing. spaln's unfortunate condition
favored us, TO be sure. but suppose the
trouble had been with, any Of the first
class powers OF Europe, then what?
The United States 10 a frst-cIass
power. II has never been, nor is It like
ly TO. be a wartke nation; and yet, as Il
GROVE In lite strength and Its vast In
%terests expand, a. our trade and COM
merce extend more and more into the
uttermost parts OF the earth, u risks
increase correspondingly. Our contem-
porary above quoted says truly that a
frst-clpss power mus. have a nrst-class
navy. Whenever It does It will never
have to stop business to fight a NTH
class power like Spain. An army OF
100000 men would have prevented this
wal and given us security from attack.
This IS true, and yet, whenever these
possibilities have been brought to the
attention Of Congress in the past, they
have been unheeded. The work OF
building up the navy has been properly
pursued, but we have practically had no
army at all. Political pedagogues who
have preached that the army should be
kept down to a few regiments In times
OF peace. and have thus p~opularized
themselves among economists and other
elements, have In the same breath, al
must. and with strange Inconsistency,
harped upon a"vtgorous foreign policy"
and were the first to force the admins
-#.. A.L
tration into q conflict with a foreign
power when the country was deficient in
the equipments for a war. Why keep
up a weak navy and no army. II the
vigorous foreign policy that is demanded
from every rostrum is to be pursued?
Whether this war accomplishcs the
main purpose for which It was under
taken or, not, and there Is no doubt that
1t Will, one important lesson the coun-
try is learning daily will not be without
a wholesome effect. By experience In
diMduals learn the lessons Of safety,
and nations are made up OF individuals.
The country will come out OF the present
conflict with a better regard for the,
principle that the greatness OF a nation
and Its necessarily Important standing
among nations cannot be maintained
without a vigorous foreign policy, and
that a vigorous foreign policy means an
adequate navy and enough OF an army
to insure peace. The best way to main
tain peace is to be prepared for war

Making An Example.

The action OF the navy department, in
issuing orders %forblddlng the presence
on board Of any naval vessel OF this
country q well known correspondent Of
O notorious sensational yellow news-
paper, on account OF his attempt to
stow himself away on the Uncas. after
having been refused permission to sail
on her as a passenger. was perfectly
right.
The purpose OF the correspondent, who
has already been the hero OF several es-
capades, was clearly 10 gain possession
of knowledge for the benefit OF the
newspaper he represented. While this
boats mission was no secret, a prece-
dent was to be established under the
naval rule recently adopted. II cores
pondents are not to respect that order
they a st any time gain INFORMATION
70 publish which. might cause the failure
Ola government plan Of campaign. The
Information being OF a character that It
would be OF the highest importance to
keep from the enemy, would be re.ailed
by the yellow Journal with boasts OF It's
superior enterprise, regardless of the
harm 1t would do to the American cause,
for the mere sake OF gain. Spain would
be in possession OF IL within a brief
time, and thus would American ENTER
prisins' Journalism work to embarrass
Tthe hands OF Its government.
What greater harm could a Spanish
spy secreted on board ar American yes:
eel do than this correspondent could
have done had this boat been on a secret
mission? How much moreI Joyfully
could the Spanish government gioat over
the Information II would receive than
would the publisher Of this American
yellow Journal over the fact that by the
daring Of his correspondent, he gained
news ahead Of his competitors, though
II, might prove fatal to the whole plan
OF scampaign against Spain?
Under some circumstances the navy
department would have dealt too gently
with the attempt OF this correspondent.
IN merely barring his presence from oil
naval vessels. In this case, however,
the correspondent was not on a mission
during which he might have done any
harm. the vessel simply being on a trip
which had no connection with active
war operations But that is not the
point; the,point is that the government
has determined that rules established
for the guardianship or the knowledge
OF the movements OF al It's vessels shall
be respected, no matter whether the
movements are important or not

One Lessen Of tn. War.

After four weeks OF war the country
is better able than It was before to real
lie what It might be II we were at wal
with a less decrepid nation than Spain
France. o. Germany. or England, for In
stance. oc some other European nation
uearer u own size. 1t has also a
chance to appreciate the short-slghted
policy government has pursued IN
the years past in not being well pre-
pared for war. II trouble had come
with almost any other maritime power,
one not crippled by financial embarrass-
ments aad Internal dissensiuns as Spain
IS, what would have been the conse-
quences? There 70 nc element of dis
couragement in the situation, but we
can ind in It a lesson which may be
effective in causing a future policy more
regardful Of our permanent peace and
safety than has been pursued In the
past.
The Philadelphia Press points out this
Lesson briefly, when It reflects on the
fact that the whole country mas been
nervous over a single Spanish fleet,
some $500 miles from NJ coast. II the
war were with England, says our con-
temporary by this timo twenty battle
ships would be off our coast in TWO. or
even three Divisions. each twice as
strong as our total strength OF battle
ships. III with France, ten or twelve
Y battleships would be here In two divis-
Ions, each double u total strength"
While our navy Is in good condition
now. having been made SO since the
emergency nrose. and Is superior to
q Spain,s. It can caaIly be seen that we
would have little chance agains, q first
class naval power.
Aside from these considerations, the
beginning OF tho war found US with but
the nucleus Of an army. The 10000 men
who have been mustered Into tho volun-
tecr service. after four weeko. arc not
yet equipped, though no tine has been
lost, and It will be somo time before
they arc. It Is believed, however, that
they Will be in time for tho duty to be
assigned thcm Just at prcsent we have
4 only the regular army on a fighting
footing: It IS pointed out that either
France or England could have Its whole
army OF q half million men In motion
within n weeks time.

The Same Old Spain.


Admiral Cervera, OF the Spanish fleet
now lodging the American fleet in the
Caribbean sea. previous to leaving Cape
Verde said to the crews OF his ships:
Then when I lead you to battle have
confidence In your chiefs and the nation.
whose eye Is upon you, and you will see
that Spain to-day is the Spain Of all
time" SfA
These are brave words, and sounded
well to the Spanish crews, no doubt, but
there is a Significance in therr that the
Spanish admiral did moi intend. Ger
vera's remark that Spain is to-day the
Spain Of all time" is true in q sense,
and that is precisely what is the matter
with Spain-that Is what has gotten her
Into all this trouble.
The factthat she is the same Spain
and shows no sign of being a better and
more advanced Spain, on the lines OF
civilization and progress: that she Is the
same Spain OF brutal policies; the same
despoac Spain; the same hot-bed OF
ignorance; the same bombasdc Spain:
the same retrogadinG. degenerating
Spain, strong only In her characteristic
Spanish conceit-he fact, we repeat
that she Is his same spatn,' IS RESPONSE
Bile for her own position to-day. The
admiral is indeed right in saying that
she Is showing the world that Spain of
to-day is the Spain Of oil time, the Spain
whose history is a story Of blood, tyran-
ny, inliuman conquest and semi-barbarlc
colonial policies.
This IS not the sense in which the
crews addressed by Cervera accepted
his patriotic" appeal, but the history
OF Spain and her conduct Of the war In
Cuba, which shocked all civilization not
having selfish interests OF stake, war
rant the construction we have placed
upon 1t.
Even from the mouth Of a Spanish
leader there may sometimes escape an
unconscious truth.
