WASHINGTON. May 9.-In the United

subject OF "a decision which was handed
down hy Justice White. The state dis

other states in the shipment Of liquor 20
.Iliduals for their own use I'm South
carolina. but while this inhibition was
minated and the privilege was re-
stored iu the new law, it was coupled
with provision for inspection, which, 10
ras claimed amounted 90 discrimination.
Iua court. i'm the decision. accepted this
lIDH of the case holding that the ln-
.p.otlou was taut1mount to denial Of
Tine right Of interstate commerce. and
therefore autaeonisuc TO the Consutu-

The decision was rendered i'm the case
of Vance d Scott vs.. the Nandercook

An Object Lesson.

The country will not soon forget the
splendid lesson in. genuine patriotism
taught 1t by congress in the past few
days in the rallying of the representa-
tives of all sections and all parties to
the presidents support in an emer-
Eency which involved the preservation
of the nations honor.
There are those who affect to despise
congress; who make it a practice to
speak i'll Of the men who occupy pub
lie Office. They assert that the quality
of our public men has deterlorated;
that love of country exists in these So
called materialistic days rather as
languid and effeminate sentiment than
as vital fact. The gospel of pessm-
ism has been preached with such per-
sistence of re-iteration by men assum-
ing to voice the opinions of a higher
civilization that many honest Ameri-
cans have been deceived. But here,
only q little more than wear after
an exciting national campaign which
divided the masses and the classes and
differentiated the sections as had not
been done before within the memory
of the present generation; campaign
that excited hot passions, fed and inten-
sified bitter prejudices and gave birth
to not few scorching animosities,-
within a fortnight, almost within a
day, the nation through its representa-
tives at Washington, drops all that,
and unfies as it has not been unified
within the memory of any living man.
1t is grand, an inspiring spectacle.
1t clears away an immense amount of
specou5 Misrepresentation and false
opinion. 1t acts as n tonic upon the
national conscience and the national
pulse. For brief time at least we are
all Observation-Disclosures with the
word Country" written on hearts and
headJ-Amoricans awake to the beauty
and the sublmity of true Americanism.
The time may come when most of us
will relapse into the former divisions,
dissensions and ruts; but to be for a
day united is to have tasted draught
of patriotism the wholesomeness of
which will constitute hereafter an i'm
perishahle memory.

Some Unfounded Fears.

Lcslie's Weekly this week is a naval
number, being devoted almost wholly
to pictures and descriptions of our war;
ships and harbor defences. 1t is n.
valuable issue, which will repay peru
sal Incidentally it sets at rest some
prevalent fears.
"A faNorite bugaboo of imaginative
scare-writers," it says, lis the picture
OF a foreign man-Of-war lying off
Coney Island or Sandy Hook and bonn
harding greater New York off the face
of the earth. As matter of fact, no
vessel with hostile intent could get
within fifteen miles of the Battery
without meeting fate similar to that
of the Maine in Havana harbor. While
the War department has necessarily
guarded with secrecy its coast defense
plans, New York is in reality one Of
the best protected cities in the world
The harbor and bay are thoroughIy
mined, and the mines are connected
by electric wires with secret under
ground casemates where the operators
work. The external defenses. In addi-
tion to the forts, consist chiefly of the
big disappearing guns. at Sandy Hook
and elsewhere, No fort is necessary
for these guns. The gunners are alb
solutely protected by big parapet,
where il is loaded. When firing be-
comes necessary ponderous machinery
raises the big cannon so that its mouth
points over the parapet. In thirty sec
onds the gunners have trained the can
non properly, and an enormous pro-
jectile is sent flying ten miles over the
sea-
AT present the inner harbor of New
York is guarded by two 12-inch, three
lO-inch and five eight-inch disappear
ing guns, as well as thirty-two l2-inch
mortars. These are all completed and
in position. Work is now going on for
other disappearing guns which will be
finished this year. The southern and
eastern entrances to the harbor are
more fully protected than the inner
harbor itself. Here is an armament of
twenty-one l2-inch guns on lifts, fifteen
lO-inch and nine S-inch guns on dis
appearing carriages, 176 Pinch NOR
tars, and many submarine mines oper-
ated from five mining casemates. This
armament will soon be increased by
the mighty 126-ton gun building at
Bethlehem, which can shoot a 2S0O-
pound projectile 16 miles"
The foregoing is true as to the de-
fences that exist on paper; but it is
equally true that if it had not been
for this recent war scare most of these
guns would have been allowed to rust
on unoiied carriages, while the birds
builded nests in their muzzles.

1t is worthy of consideration that IL
the destruction of the Maine shall be
attributed by the court of inquiry to
the work of persons unknown the ver-
dict will add materially to the case for
effective American intervention in
Cuba. For then the evidence will show
that not only are American trade and
property interests in Cuba unsafe un-
der Spanish rule and not only is that
rule powerless to maintain internal
tranquility but also that the govern
ment of Spain is unable to afford ade-
quate protection to the ships of friend
ly nations which drop anchor In Cuban
waters. In other words, Spanish con-
troll of Cuba will stand convicted on
all sides before the world as an in
ternational nuisance, and Intervention
to abate this nuisance will become an
unavoidable duty. In any view of the
matter therefore Spain must get out.

THE FEELING At WASHINGTON.

From an Editorial Dispatch by Charles
Emory Smith to the Philadelphia Press.
The request of the Spanish government
for the recall of General Lee and for the
substitution of merchant vessels to carry
American relief to cuba was promptly
and properly declined. Everything de-
pends upon what lies behind this request.
If Spain wants and means war; then war
will come. But unless Spain Is mad
enough and fatuous enough to provoke a
conflict In which crushing defeat and the
complete loss of cuba are inevitable then
even today.s striking developments and
quick movements do not necessarily in
volve ar.
