THE sTuFFEp NAPOLEON.

The long expected, much mOoted,
presidents message to Congress after
many halts, starts, and backward jerks
again, finally landed Monday. The
only thing surprising about it is that 1t
landed at all The message is full and
thrObbing with the individuality Of the
president most masterfully expressed
by the Buddhist word "Nirvsna" which
being interpreted means nothing"
not even a vacuum. Jerry Simpson
says, "ne starts out like Napoleon and
ends like a blind horse In ditch"
He reiterates some passages from his
old message, tells some things eVerV-
body knows, and pendsntiCally recites
some passages OF ancient history every
body had forgotten as not being worthy
Of remembering
Reading the message, arrOuses some
curiosity TO deterlnine whether he is
shooting at anything or just shooting
to hear the roar. We have been unable
to determine from our own reading,
but take it from his interpreters that
he recommends fOrcesble intervention,
as a neutral power, to stop the war,
without any recognition of indepen-
dence. Right here comes several ques-
tiOns for some smart holder of post
office to answer. How is this "fOrce-
able Intervention" going to take placer
The Spanish adrOitly ordered an ar
mistice, that is temporary cessation
of hOstiliTies on their part, as soon as
they learned of this and now if inter
ventiOn means anything it means that
the United States is to prevent the Gu
ban patriots, who have soaked the sod
with their blood, fought without pay,
furnished their own horses to be killed,
while their families were starved to
death in Spanish corals from striking
for their homes and their fires, to make
an end of it, and that they are the only
ones to be "intervened.
OF course it is presumed that during
this enforced peace, the president hopes
for some kind of permanent settlement.
But Spain has refused to concede the
independence of Cuba and the insur-
gents rigntfully refuse anything short
Of independence, To interfere now
and not permit the insurgents to carry |
on their war would mean that the best
that could he made would |
be some system of autonomy which the
insurgents have rejected. The holders

ADYICEs from New York tell how
J. Pierpont Morgan and other New
York financiers are meeting in consul
tation to provide the sinews of war by
popular loan." The fact that these
patriots are so earnestly 6gureing on it
is sufficient evidence that the loan will
be popular in Wall Street. In case of
war truly popular loan, issued in de-
nominations of from s5 TO S25, or even
some of them as high as $50 or Sl0O and
then put on sale in every pOstoffice,
would be entirely justi6able. They
would soon become next to legal ten
der thus supplementing the currency
volume and this is the reason why no
such loan will be made. What would
be best, and what the populists and
democrats should stand for is the old
gIeenback or nOn-interest bearing
bonds to be made legal tender and
paid out for supplies for the army and
navy but Pierpont and Hanna would
probably prefer to see Spain walk all
over United States rather than come to
that. If the popoCrats cOntended for
it, however, they might perhaps force
as a compromise, such measure as we
have suggested-a truly popular loan
