JOURNALISM.

Surely a person who writes de-
scent English in the newspapers,
who has no imagination, whose
work neither excites public fear nor
disturbs public sentiment, and who
is hampered with archaic i1eas
about idle laborers multiplying in
Texarkana. Such a person can not
hope to be journalist, but merely
that back number we call a news
paperman.
The journalist is pencil pusher
moved from. his base, disjected
from his orbit, and wandering
comet-like, in yellow chaos. He
must be able to throw a glamor of
romance and imagination around
everything; he must be proudly
superior to tradition and morals;
he must know that space (n his
paper is greatness; that truthful
ness in statement is better than
Misrepresentation, when united
with atlitucle and platitucle, and he
must understand that virtue is its
own reward, and cuts no ice While
brains may be useful, they are mere
ly incidental to journalism; quick
ear, keen nose, an enthusiasm not
bulked by locks or domestic impedi-
ments, a bumb-proof assurance in
anatomy that smiles at sole leather
and lodges violence; these are the
gifts the fin de steele journalist needs
if he is to be successful.

This morning while we were com
ing down Broad street we noticed q
farmer with three bales of cotton
in a wagon, and on the side of the
wagon was a sign reading thus;
Cotton pickers wanted, 80 cents.
Upon investigation we learned that
the farmer was sorely in need of
cotton pickers and would gladly
take fifteen more hands in addition
to those he now has. The price
paid by him is so cents per hundred
pounds and board thrown in. This
being the case, we fail to see any
grounds for being excused for IDLE.

excuse can be found tor leaying the

seems to be a very dominant feature

has shown as much solicitude for
the welfare of his command as has
the gallant Joe Wheeler, nor is the

fere it was itself responsible for the in
EQUITIES perpetrated by the only power
it would permit to rule there. This was
not a situation created by Mr.. McKin-
ley. 1t was a situation created on the
one hand by John Quincy Adams, Dan.
iel Webster, and the whole line of our
governing statesmen from 1923 to this
time, and on the other hand by the
Spanish authorities in Cuba, who went
steadily from bad to worse in spite of
our appeals and the circumstances and
revolts of their people.
The president was most DESTROYS of
avoiding war and eager to believe every
assurance from Spain that order would
soon be restored. Meanwhile all infor-
nation from the island showed that the
disorders continued and the inhumanity
and suffering increased. Then came the
De LONE incident, which showed the
minister Spain had accredited to US
scheming privately to mislead and blind
us by pretended negotiations to restore
the ruined commerce, and, in the same
breath, uttering offensive ISLANDERS upon
our chief magistrate.
Speedily following this came the blow
ing up Of one of u great warships at
the buoy in the harbor of Havana,
where the Spanish authorities had
moored it, and the loss of $50 lives of it's
crew. The circumstances left in the
minds of the great majority Of our peo-
people the moral conviction that the ex-
plosion was the work OF Spanish agents,
who, whether with or without official
authority or even knowledge, did use
explosives too elaborate and powerful to
have been other than public property.
From that moment it was beyond the
power Of any president, or cabinet, or
congress to restrain the American peo-
pie from war. Promises to do better if
more time were given, belated efforts at
organizing an autonomous Cuban gov
eminent, proposals to listen to the Pope
and suspend hostilities, diplomatic fence
and parry, were all as useless as the idle
wind against the stern resolve of a ma
ton occupying a continent and number
ing 100000 of souls to "make an end
of this to be trihed with no longer, and
to expel from the Western hemisphere
the flag under which such deeds were
possible.

enough to accommodate two full bat

from other vessels in dock. She was
the last of the third expedition to leave,
and she expects to overtake the others
before reaching Honolulu. l will hear

sary department tried to dispose of some
of the cheap clothing with the North
Dakota regiment, but Col. Truemann
refused to take them and ordered them
shipped back and notified the depart
ment that his boys would have none but
the best. And they got it. There are
many regiments in camp here which
should have gone ahead of North Da-
kota. Col. Truemann, Capt. Motfet and
Chief Quartermaster Pope waited on
Gen. Merritt and secured this conces-
sion. The fine appearance of the men
helped them wonderfully. They had
the very best equipment"

WHY THE WAR.
An Excellent Statement to the French
Press from Whitelaw Ried.

FreSS IRON WhltelaW Rled.
In a recent interview in Paris, Hon.
Whitelaw Reid, fromer ambassador to
France, thus defended the positionsof
America against the criticisms of the
French press: You ask: "\Nhy is the
United States forcing this war on
Spain::" We here do not think it is.
Personally, l am profoundly sorry for
the war. and would most gladly have
seen any honorable course taken by
which we could have avoided it. 1
know we'll the many high. minded and
charming traits of the Spanish people,
have valued personal friends among
them-even in the latest war cabinet''
and have hoped that the inevitable
departure of the Spanish flag from the
new world, which Spain discovered for
us might be delayed to another gener-
alton.
But we had reached an absolute 'im-
passe." For three quarters of a century
our government was positively commit
ted to the position that if Spain failed
to govern Cuba the island must either
govern itself or be governed by the
United States-no other European
nation being permitted to take Spain's
place. Practically that made US for
three quarters of a century the ally of
Spain against all corners as to her Cuban
| possessions. and SO made US in one
sense responsible for the nature of her
government. Now, her government of
the island grew steadily worse until it
became intolerable. Cuba was taxed.
and plundered, and misruled till it re-
volted. 1t was then defended so feeb-
ly that the first revolt lasted ten years,
and was only kept under-not ended
by the bribery of venal insurgent lead
ers: while the second revolt, after spread
ing for three years, was barely held in
check by the barbarous policy of desc.
lating the country, destroying it's in
dustries, and starving it's inhabitants.
No nation in Europe would permit a
distant power to maintain for thirteen
years such an inhuman and offensive
nuisance directly on it's shores. But the
United States was, besides, driven to
action by the necessity of it's historic
position. Having warned everybody
else off, it was itself bound to interfere
when somebody's interference was plain
ly demanded in the interests of c~iviliza-
ton and humanity. If it did not inter.
