SPANS CRY FOR PEACE.

Spain Is said to be seeking peace Her Gov

proudly threatened, plant Its flag upon the Cap
itol Mt Washington. II cannot inflict single
serious blow upon the Nation Of Pigs" which
II has been reviling copiously. 1t cannot
even defend its colonies. The Philippines, most
valuable Of all, are already lost. and Cuba and
Porto Rico are past all saving. Now imminent
peril Is perceived at home. The Carlists are
active probably IN conjunction with Weyler and
his partisans Repubcanism Is reviving The
dynasty IS seen to be in danger. perhaps greater
danger than If the war had not been under
taken for its salvation. There Is no cause 10

CRITICISM OF NOLLEGES.

Now Cornell IS in for II. One after another
the colleges have been getting 1t ever since the
wife OF the Rev Mr. POteat. Of New Haven, de-
clded a few years ago that she would rather
send her son to hell than to Yale. That was
pretty hard on Yale. but II managed to survive,
and in spite OF Mrs. Poteat. great many relig-
ious and moral people continue to support that
institution Then Princeton was the topic OF
resolution IN mai.y n rural gathering because
the town contained respectable hotel with the
consent OF members Of the faculty. and the col
lege authorities did not see iii to treat the stu
dents as boys of ten, and thought them more
likely to become good men II left free even TO
drink n glass Of beer without sneaking about Ii
than II subjected at every turn to restrictions.
Princeton still holds n high place in public es-
TEEN. Now it Is Corncls turn. The Rochester
District Methodist Conference and Epworth
League has adopted resolutions saying;
That we view with solicitude the indifference
OF certain Of our great educational Institutions
especially Of Cornell University, Of this state.
which receives support through public taxation
10 the development OF those moral habits that
are the safeguards OF our political. religious.
social and domestic institutions. and their toer-
ance Of conditions In the discipline OF the insi-
tuition that endanger the temperance. social
purity and moral honesty OF youth who go TO
guarded against these evils.
Resolved, further, That in tho interest OF the
ediication OF the whole Nation We urge our
young men and women to attend colleges main
tanning as conditions Of attendance high moral
standards.
No doubt the people who voted for these reso-
buttons were sincere. Sincerity Is the strong
point Of some Of the most unreasonable people
IN the world. But II would be interesting TO
know what they find fault with and what they
expect. They are exceedingly unfair to certain
unnamed institutions by making indefinite
charges which may be popularity applied TO
some particular one without giving II chance
to answer or hold them responsible for starting
the story. II the Conference had any fault to
find 1t should haye been specific and not taken
the chance Of unjustly injurlng the reputation
OF a number Of colleges. As to Cornell itself,
the Conference denounces Its Indifference to the
development OF moral habits" 1t gives no bill
of particulars rs to that indifference. II does
not enable anybody who may not have exactly
Its standards Of moral earnestness and social re.
spectabiiity to judge how far the structures are
justified 1t simply sails In and gives Cornell a
bad reputation, and seems to expect the world
to accept 1t as the nfallible Judge Of what con-
stitutes a good college. This is asking good
deal. The Conference is doubtless highly re-

THE PARDON or CAPTAIN HIATT.

A double measure Of satisfaction will be relt
at the pardoning OF Captain Hart. OF the noto-
| rious fllbustering steamer Laurada. F1rst
most obviously and. suppose, most generally
because he Is pardoned and restored to liberty.
The sympnthy of the Nation called for that 10
be done. and the judgment Of the Nation VIII
| doubtless commend II as right. The OBJECT OF
his sentence was ut once punishment, restraint
md Difference Captain Hnrt has already been
sufficiently punished for his fault 1t Is certain
that he will never commit the same offence
again in the same direction and 1t Is altogether
probable that he Will never commit 1t again IA
any direction The restraining purpose OF the
sentence is therefore accomplished. So, too, Is
the deterrent purpose. The penalty meted out
to him served as warning example as long as
such an example WAS needed. 1t Is no longer
needed. and may therefore properly be discon-
tinued
The second cause OF satisfaction Is that the
thing was done at the right time and in the
right way That may be lefs general, but will
surely be more forcIble in rs appeal. For the
way in which thing is done is often OF greater
importance than the thing itself 1t Is In this
case, except to Captain Hart himself. and he Is
not Of primary consideration. Ii will be remem-
bercd that there was impulsive and unthink-
Ing clamor raised for his release the moment
the war with Spain broke ont. Such action
would have been most dcplorable. II would
have been n notice 20 the Nation that foreign
war condoned domestic lavbreaking. II would
have indlca ted that the pardon was granted
lust because Of tine war. and that the war was
| on,dcred TO have cha aged the whole aspect OF
the case The fact Is, OF course, that tho war
has absolutely nothing 20 do with H. The war
has abrogn,ed certain treaty rights and oDlga'
lions between the bclll gerent Powers but by no
means all OF them. IL certainly does not abro-
gate nor modify In the slightest single one OF
our domestic laws, and II was our domestic
laws which Captain Hart violated. and for vio-
lating which he was punished
Il is highly gratifying TO see that this prln-
clple s clearly perceived by the Attorney-Gen-
cral and convlncingly expressed by him In the
memorandum TO the President on which the par
don was based II IL further proof that Mr.
Grlggs u.s. as he has always been regarded, n
man OF sane and discriminating judgment as
well as Of generous impulses. Sentiment and
sympathy nre good in their place, but their
place is not n controlling one in the conduct OF
grave judicial affairs or In the maintenance Of
the supremacy OF the law and the National
honor

that war was as good as declared

as declared, the street will talk a
great deal about the higher money
