The Hero of Santiago.

Admiral Schley has arrived in Wash
ington, and there is no man in the
whole Atlantic Squadron whose coming
would have been so heartily welcomed
by the people of this city. For two
months after the Manila victory the
American people waited confidently
for the navy to show once more its
magnificent fighting power. The Sec
ond great naval battle came off Santi-
ago de Cuba. and of that battle Sch ey
was the hero.
For weeks the navy had been bother
ed with the feet Of Cervera- The agile
Spaniard was reported ip more places
at once than he could have occupied
had he hesn the Flying Dutchman-
Finally he was caught in the harbor of
Santiago, and Schley sat down outside
the gate. TO keep watch. The prompt
ness and effectiveness with which he
rounded up the Spanish fleet when it
attempted to escape are matters Of his
tory; and history was made very fast
on shat July morning. The formid-
able fleet of Spain was utterly de-
stroyed and the colonial possessions of
Spain were simultaneously reduced 10
skin and bone.
Admiral Schley may become little
weary of listening to his own praises,
but if men will do heroic things. it
seems unavoidable that they should
suffer the penalty. Whatever may be
said about the gratitude of republics.
in this country a man cannot add a
whole chapter to the history of the
nation in less than half a day and
expect to go walking around the
streets afterward with no more atten-
ton than any ordinary man who has
done nothing at all. 1t follows that Ad-
miral Schley will be obliged TO put up
with all the admiration that can be
heaped upon his devoted head for some
time to come.
He is at present the one man in the
navy Of whom ii may be absolutely as
serted that had he been in Dewey's
place at Manila he would have done
just what Dewey did. 1t is equally
certain that Dewey, in Schley's place,
would not have varied Schley's pro-
gram in any particular. One is the
hero Of the East the other the hero of
the West. Together they have ami
hilated the Spanish navy, and given
America new inheritance-an inheri-
lance of the seas.

Admiral Dewey. Whether disappoint-
ment or bewilderment was uppermost
in the Keeling brains of Americans. it
would be hard to say.
But not for long. for bewilderment
crowded out every other state of mind
when details. of the last glorious battle
We're waited across the sea. Here was
Gen. Merritt, while the fight was rag
ing. taking command of the largest
column of Spanish troops and leading
it inside the intrenchments. while
Aguinaldo stood distracted at the head
of his Falstaffian army. not knowing
whether he was asleep or merely crazy.
Then came what Admiral Dewey, ex-s
cusably unbalanced for the moment,
described as the surrender, with sew
eral thousand prisoners. Yet. the
terms distinctly affirm that the Span
ish officers and soldiers were not pris-
oners, were not even on parole, and
had relinquished none of their rights to
arms, horses. and general equipments,
but were to be fed and protected from
the venomous Auguinaldo in all re-
spects as though they were prisoners
of war. When the specific report was
made that the alleged. but perfidious
and fictitious surrender included only
the city and suburbs, there was
widespread depression which lightened
little when the philosophic opt.mist
of the New York Tribune assured us
that suburbs is an elastic term, and
might embrace the many hundreds of
Philippine islands. Here, again, the
rejoicing was only brief, and gloom
overspread the land again, when Gen.
Merritt sent a. dispatch saying that
'the suburbs" elastic and pervasive,
had been turned over to Aguinaldo in
return for the privilege of using water,
the supply of which was in his con-
troll
Admiral Dewey. probably, because he
is unable to work out the puzzle, has
cut all communication with this coun-
try. All the President is able to do
is to charge Gen. Merritt to stand
firm Probably the President himself
doesn't know exactly what that means,
but in the absence of anything like
a diagram of the Philippines situation,
he could think of no better advice to
give. As a rule, stand firm is a safe
direction. 49,

The Pence Commission.

The Pres dents Peace Commissioners
are above all things an emin ntly re-
spectacle set Of men. Senators Davis
and Frye are known to be Amer C ms,
and Mr.. Reid used to be- Secretary
Day is in a peculiar sense The pers nal
representative of the Prcs.d snt In the
case Of Justice White it is TO be hoped
that he represents his country solely
and nobody and nothing else.
None Of the Commissioners has ever
shone as diplomat or is ever likely
to. but as they so to Paris as bearers
of an American ultimatum rather than
ambassadors to negotiate peace, this
defect is not important.
We do not believe tEat the President
has instructed the Commissioners ex-
actly what TO do. II is more probable
that he has given them discretionary
powers within certain limits and that
in the actual conclusion Of the treaty
of Dsace he viii be represented by
cable.
The one essential point not settled by
the protocol is the disposition of the
Philippines Messrs. Davis, Frye, and
Reid are set down as favoring Ameri-
can retention of the whole group of
islands, but if Mr.. Day, taking a more
conservative position. is able to speak
for the President, his views will prob
ably prevail. 1t must not be forgotten,
however. that the treaty agreed upon
must be ratified by the United States
Senate. That is most important en-
sideration and one which viii in the
end outweigh any of the arguments of
Spain. AS for the American people,
they make but one demand: Wherever
the American flag has been hoisted in
this war. there il must remain.
The times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1897-1901, 1898-08-27

Somebody suggests that the writers
of comic opera do not need to squeeze
their brains for imaginary situations
when they have such rich material in
the capture of that island in the La
drones, where the Spanish governor,
on hearing the cannon of the Charles
ton, sent his apologies to the command
err for being unable to respond to his
salute" at once; and that he would
have his old smooth bore cleaned and
loaded, etc. Then he was indignant
on learning that the Charleston had
fired solid shot, until he discovered
there was war between his country and
America.
This is not the only nor the most en-
of the librettist If the full history
of the Santiago campaign should be
told, and if there had been fewer trag-
ic results, he might find in that some
thing worthy of attention. Aside
from the march of an army on a for
titled town, without the supplies that
have always been regarded as vital to
any movement of troops; aside from
the hurried attack of infantry on
strongholds without the preliminary
pounding by artillery, it was a case
of the success of demand, by which
an army on the verge of starvation
frightened the enemy into surren-
der. The tragic element, however,
is dominant in this, for the in
trenched enemy sent out the pest-rid-
den civilians to spread the seeds of
disease through the army.
Perhaps the seeker for incidents Of
an unusual and amusing character
might find study of the closing
events at Manila profitable. When the
peace terms were signed at Washing
ton, our title TO the Philippines was
questioned, because our possession was
only potential and not actual. 1t was
hoped that Admiral Dewey and Gen.
Merritt would capture the capital be-
fore the news of peace should reach
them, in the belief that such actual
possession, though subsequent to the
date of the protocol, would make our
claim more valid. Then came the in
formation that the thing had happen
ed as hoped and expected. One burn
ing thought was that the Spanish gov
ernor general, whose rule extended
throughout the uncounted islands,
must surrender all in surrendering
himself and Manila. The echoes of our
glad shouts had not ceased before it
was known that this important gov

In TWO or three towns the school
boards are asked to follow the bad ex-

already too long and needs curtailing

We're otherwise, il would be hard to
conceive of any study less useful than
that of Spanish. The suggestion that
the annexation of Porto Rico, where
that is the common tongue, is valid
reason for the step, comes from a mis-
understanding of the conditions and
purposes of our new relations
Every inducement should be offered
for the abolition of everything Span

far as possible. character. The
only object in making German a study
in the schools of many Northern cities
was TO persuade German parents to
send their children to the public. rather
than the parochiaI schools. It has had
no such effect. Where the parents are
Lutheran or Catholic, the church
schools have virtually all the children,
and those German parents who send
their children to the public schools do
so because they do not want secular
and religious instruction combined.
This was proved in ST. Louis,
where not single child Of German
parents was withdrawn from the COM
mon schools after the abolition of the
study of that language.
Wherever there are large numbers of
Spaniards, the children will go to the
church schools, as the Polish children

Milwaukee, where English has very
little show. Because the language Of

But the results of the change within the
limits of American authority, whatever those
limits are, will quickly become known beyond
them. If the American rule is Just, impartial
and honest, it will be impossible to prevent up

American authority. 1t viii not be easy for this

enough TO be maintained by the school

The most common of well grounded
complaints is that there are too many
studies in the public schools. and that
there is consequent overwork for the
children. More than half-perhaps
more than three-fourths-of the boys
and girls in the public schools quit at
the age of fourteen. Every hour in
the schoolroom can be employed to
ground them well in the few funda-
mentals. OF all conceivable fads and
wasteful follies, the study of Spanish
grammar is the least sensible.
