watched by the World.

Has turn or torture come to
Spain? There has been a pause in the
peace negotiations in Paris because It
is said that in addition to Spain's re-
fusal TO remove her disturbing rule
from the Philippines. she insists that
in vacating Cuba, she shall take
with her such things as her can
non and the floating dock at Ha-
vaDa, and that the United States shall
pay the Cuban debt. says the New
York Sun.
Spain - not spn ring for time with
out hope Every keen foreign observer
of American politics will perceive the
reason why. The party that has di-
II cted the war in which Spain has
been conquered, and whose President
at st. Louis said that this country
must not fail to gather the fruits Of
its victory" Is engaged in a political
campaign with party which has iden-
tiled itself with the policy of restoring
TO Spain all that we nave gained, even
10 the hauling down Of the stars and
stripes wherever they have been raised
on Spanish soil.

AS witness Fitzhugh Lee seems to
have been as successful in pleasing
the yellow journalists and the Bry-
ante horror-mongers as Joseph
Wheeler and II. V. Boynton were.
Those gray-llaired old soldiers don't
seem to understand that campaign
capital is needed-by a very hard-up
party, which views with alarm the
confidence Of the people in President
Mckinley. They just tell the truth In
their straightforward. soldierly way,
and let the political consequences take
care Of themselves.

Our Democratic opponents mistook
the temper and purpose Of the Ameri-
can people In arraigning the Republi-
can party for neglect or laundering
during the war. When criticism was
made 1t was to remedy Ills, and Re-
publican newspapers were just as in
Mstent as others that the best care
should be extended, in the best way,
to our troops in camp and field, and
at time when 1t should be most effec-
tive. That Is the demand to-day.

Shall the Country Return to Pow.

1t was only two years ago that the
country emerged from business paraly-
sis. stagnation of enterprise, unpar-
alleled loss, and shut up the soup
houses and other extraordinary insti-
tutions for the relief of men and wo-
men out Of employment.
Relief came with the election Of a
Republican President and a Republi-
can House of Representatives. Have
the people of this State enjoyed pros
perity long enough to warrant them in
entering upon course that is GER
tain to bring a reaction?

invite the Democracy back to power In
