why No ReooRnition.

If there should be recognition
the Cuban Republic could get
along very we'll without the United
States in driving out the Spanish
from the island, as then they could
better get arms, men and money
from abroad.
But they would not assume any
of the Spanish Cuban bonds which
are at the bottom OF the whole
Mckinley -Hanna-McCook policy,
and the latter could make no mil
lions.
The new Cuban Government is
to be established by Mckinley and
Hanna. 1t will not be recognized
until it has consented to the de-
mands Of the Spanish Cuban bond
holders, or issued new bonds en-
dorsed by the United States to
McCook. who will furnish some
two or three hundred millions as
an indemnity to Spain.
We do not believe as yet that
there will be any war under those
circumStan :es.

Mr. Rrysn,s SIGNIFICANT vIslt.

The visit OF Mr.. Bryan, the
former Democratic nominee Tor the
Presidency. to the Capitol Thurs
day afternoon was not without its
political significance in connection
with the situation.
Mr.. Bryan is not only an advo-
cate OF the recognition Of inde-
pendence from personal conVic-
ton, but also because he believes
that it is the proper political step
to take. He was in conference
with leading Democratic Senators,
urging them to present a solid
front in favor of recognition, hold
ing that two points would thereby
be gained If it is defeated, the
Democrats will have gone on rec
ord in favor of recognition, which
is believed to be a popular step,
and il it wins the record will give
the Democrats iull credit for the
action, besides which the President
will either have to veto the propo-
sition or accept it in face of his
argument in his message. How.
ever this may be, there is no
doubt that a large number OF
Democratic Senator's believe that
their position in favor OF recogni-
tion puts them in excellent shape
before the country, while Senator
Allen, Of Nebraska, said that if the
Republicans did not recognize the
independence OF Cuba there would
not be a handful Of Republican
voters next fall.
The desire to fix the RESPONSE
bility for delay upon the Repub-
licans was also shownin the S, nate,
when Senator Allen said that if
the Senate was to DE allowed to
adjourn, the country should know
that it was favored and accom-
plished by Republican votes.

THEATRICAL

Fanny Rice returns to the Academy
next week in her very amusing comedy,
'At the French Ball." The play is an
adaptation from the German by Fred
enck Schrader, who has fitted Miss
Rice admirably. Tee roles he assumes
is that OF Nancy Patch, the wife OF Q
modest little shoemaker. They have
lived happily and cOntentedly along for
some time when discomfort begins to
creep into the happy little home. She
finally makes up her mind to attend the
French ball with a woman friend Of
hers. There she sees what opens her
eyes to the hollowness and deceits that
underhe the glittering joys oi the world,
and she decides that, after all, her hus-
bands love and tire cozy little nest
where they live are better for her than
the Rilded palaces Of the gay world,
where discomfort is just as predominant.
The part enables her to run the whole
gamut OF the human emotions, from the
light hearted joy TO the tenderest pathos,
but the sad notes are few, for Miss Rice
is a perpetual ray OF sunshine, and whe
she lends her CHEEKY presence clouds
vanish and solemn visaged melancholy
seeks safety in flight.

Levy an HI come Tax.

There is a glimmer OF sense in
the consideration by the Ways and
Means Committee Of an income
tax to help meet the war expenses.
Nearly all our present taxes are
laid upon the common necessaries
Of the people. The additional taxes
proposed by the committee are
mostly OF the same character

If we need money the people will
furnish il through 3 per cent bonds.
One hundred millions will cost
annually three millions ot dollars

obtained, without doubling the old
war tax on beer.
Let our Democrats remain true
to themselves. They should not

taxation the poor people. mostly
all Democrats, without touching

Internal Revenue War Tax.

The prevailing opinion among
manufacturers of cigars. tobacco,
cigarettes and snuff and brewers,
that in the event Of war there will
be a marked increase in the inter
nal revenue taxes levied upon their
products, it is said at the Treasury
Department, bids fair to be veri-
fed.
The Impression, however. that
by purchasing stamps at the rate
OF tax now levied, affixing them to
goods and getting them removed
from the premises OF manufactu-
rers, manufacturers or their Gus
toners will reap a very decided
profit when the tax is advanced by
being able to add the same 10 the
price of such goods is erroneous.
The law, it is said, will contain
a special provision which will re-
suit IN the increase Of tax being
collected from all wholesale and
retail dealers in whose hands these
products may be found when the
law goes into effect.

The destruction OF the Maine
was compassed Gather by the Off
cial act OF the ST anish authorities
or was made POS ibl= by a negli-
gence on their part so willing and
gross as to be equivalent in eulpa-
bilitY to positive criminal action"
Such IS the frank and clear and
iu1t verdict upon the Name dis
aster which the Senate Committee
on Foreign Relations has put upon
the record over President Nc.
KinleY's tImid and shifting "the
responsibility remains to be fixed.
Spain assassinated our sailors,
her sleeping guests.
Here is the outline Of the proof:
Joseph P. Gibbins, the great
English inventor, has testified that
he sold Spain mines for Havana
harbor, and that the character Of
the explosion indicates that it was
one of his mines that blew up the
Name.
Mr.. Gibbins is corroboraied by
two witnesses-"Butcher" "Weyler,
who says that he laid in a stock OF
mines, and Admiral Berenger,
Spain's late Minister of Marine.
who says that Canovas sent I9o
torpedoes to Cuba, which were laid
in the harbors Of Havana and three
other Cuban coast cities by an eoc.
pert named Chacon.
Mr.. Gibbins has testified shat
when a ship at anchor swings
against one Of his mines, the fact
is conveyed to the officer on shore
by the dropping of a shutter on the
keyboard, and then, il it is desired
TO blow up the ship, the officer
must get keys and directions from
the principal officers in command,
who carefully guard these means
OF swift and terrible destru ction.
Lieut.. Commander Wainwright
Of the Maine testified before the
naval court that on the night Of the
explosion the Maine was pointing
steadily in direction in which she
had not pointed tor more than a
few minutes at any previous time
during her stay at Havana.
Cart Sigsbee testified before the
Naval Court that the Maine was
anchored at buoy 4 by order OF the
Spanish officials, that buoy 4 had
been moved from its usual place
to place where no ship had ever
anchored before.
Capt. Sigsbee testified before the
Senate Committee on Foreign Re-
lations that "the Spanish officials
blew up the Maine"
Gen. Lee testified before the SEN
ate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tions that the Maine was blown up
bv Spanish officials, but not Gen.
Blanco, The medium OF com.
munlcation was submarine wire.
The circuit was connected in the
old fortress in the rear OF the pal
ace of the Vice Governor General.
The evidence is cumulative. 1t
piles up into proof that eniolds
Spain in an atmosphere Of guilt.
And her form | plea Of mot
guilty" unsupported by even
pretense ofprooi, only clinches her
guilt. 1t puts her in the attitU de
Of shameiessly and de6antlY as
suming the whole responsibility.

senator whire. OF California

at the Jefferson Banquet, called his
California wine the drink OF De-
mocracy and said that beer would
be taxed one dollar more, as
Democrats did not drink it.
As there was nothing but Cali
fornia wine served at that banquet
we apprehend it must have had
some bad effect upon the California
Senator-or there must be but few
Democrats left in California.
We hope the Senator will sober
up and vote for an income tax, and
let beer, drunk by all Democrats
from Florida to California, alone.
Washington sentinel., 1898-04-16
The Poor Mans Beverage.

Our last article protesting
against the doubling OF the beer
tax has had its effect. Democrats,
and also some Republicans, in
Congress, knowing that the poor
men, who drink the beer, have to
fight our battles, and that it " ould
be a mean outrage and injustice to
increase the burden of taxation on
their beverage thirty-fve millions
OF dollars year, have at once re-
msmbered that it is an excellent
time to revive the income tax, as
we have war, and, according to the
Supreme Court. it would be con-
stitutional now to impose II.
Many Democrats have told US
that they think it would be a good
opportunity to make motion now
to re-establish the income tax,
which yielded in 1866 over sixty
millions OF dollars, and which
would be sufficient to keep our
Treasury supplied with money.
Interesting IS the position on
this subject Of William J. Bryan.
II will be remembered that in So3,
when the first attempt was made to
double the beer tax, he declared,
being then member Of the Ways
and Means Committee, that he
never would give his vote to in
crease the already too heavy BUR
then of taxation ofthe poor people.
Last Wednesday, at the Jefferson
Birthday Banquet in this city, he,
in order to make such an increase
unnecessary, strongly advocated
an income tax. We copy from the
Washington P0SE
Mr.. Bryan then spoke OF the tact that
the stand taken by the Democratic party
in favor of an income tax was being vln-
dicated with every succeeding day.

to night denounce the policy that
places the mlser's dollar above the

That is the language OF a truly
Democratic patriot who feels for
the poor, and is not, like Mckinley,
controlled by the millionaires and
trusts. Other Democrats will fol-

low Spain an opportunity to get

New Jersey Again Democratic.


New Jersey is n nominally Demo
cratic State, and the municipal
elections in New Jersey in an of
year naturally hinge on local is
sues.
The personal character Of can
ddates had something to do with
last Tuesdays results. The very
unsatisfactory record OF the recent
session OF the Republican Legis-
lature also had something to do
with it. This was bad enough to
make any State feel like going
Democratic, as probably New Jer-
sey will do in the tall.
Still, the reversal OF Republi-
canplurality OF 81 900 isan achieve
ment so tremendous as to require
the cooperation of many infu-
ences, and the vote Of last Tuesday
in New Jersey undoubtedly repre-
sents the popular indignation and
disgust over the wabbling policy
and quibblIng utterances Of the
Administration on the Cuban ques-
ton.
This was clearly the case in New
Brunswick, the home OF three vic
tins Of the Maine. 1t was more or
less true everywhere. New Jersey
is a seaboard State, proud ot her
place in our naval history and
cherishing her heroic naval tradi.
tions. New Jersey on last Tuesday
