freedom and the safety of all and of
each, is strengthened by every occasion
that puts it to the test.
Not less encouraging on this eve Of an
other breach of the international peace
were some of the prophetic utterances o.
the author Of the American Declaration
of Independence. Ponder these brief bu
suggestive excerpts:
The general desire to preserve our
country from the calamities and
ravages of war, by cultivating a dis
position and pursuing conduct concil-
iatory and friendly to all nations, has
been sincerely entertained and faith
fully followed. 1t was dictated by the
principles of humanity. the precepts of
the Gospel, and the genepil wish of our
country. The power of making
war often prevents it. The
sword once drawn, full justice must be
done. "Indemnification for the past
and security for the future" should be
painted on our banners. We
think it our interest to punish the first
insult, because an insult unpunished is
the parent of many others.
Where wrongs are pressed because it
ance becomes morality. The
justest dispositions possible in our
selves will not secure us against war.
1t would be necessary that all other
nations were just also. Justice, indeed,
on our part will save us from those wars
which would have been produced by a
contrary policy. But how can we pre-
vent those produced by the wrongs Of
other nations? BY putting ourselves in
a position to punish them. Weakness
provokes insult and injury. while con-
dition to punish often prevents them.
The festival Of the resurrection of
Christ, while not traceable to the earli-
est days of the Christian era, is yet of
very ancient origin. In olden times its
observance covered period of eight
days. later limited to two, and since the
Council of Nice always occurring on a
Sunday. Such of the rites and ceremo-
nies as have come down to us from
pagan times have been given Christian
significance, and are dear to the Chris
tian heart. It is the morning of Spring,
the awakening of Nature from the death
Of Winter, the anniversary of the rising
IF the Sun of Righteousness-the Sun
lay of Joy.
After the TIE Deums and the devotions,
he bonfires and the paschal tapers and
he colored eggs, emblematic of the res
direction and the future life. we may. on
he morrow, come to subordinate the
spiritual and sentimental to the prac-
ical, and face the stern realities that
environ US as q nation.

PARTING OF THE WAYS

The events of the week have pretty
effectually dissipated doubt and uncer-
tainty as to the issue of peace or war.
The government and people of the
United States are in accord as to what
shall be done. The only divergence of
opinion relates to the manner of doing
it.
A consensus of American opinion
would be that the Cubans are and of
right ought to be free.
A preponderating majority Of the peo-
pie demand that the declaration of their
freedom should be the basis of interven-
ton.
The president. although pledged by
the platform of his party to battle for
Cuban independence, yet takes issue
with prevailing public sentiment as to
the wisdom of declaring it now, his posi-
ton being based upon the assumption
that the patriots have not yet an estab-
lished government, that they have not
vet fully demonstrated their ability for
self-government, and that there will be
time enough to recognize it when 1t is
shown to be equal to the exigencies of
the situation, capable of coping with the
problems that will confront 1t, and when
the majority of tho people on the island
are united in respect for and support of
its authority.
The measure of wisdom embodied in
! this ANALYSIS can only be demonstrated
by time and events.
1t is shared by an element in congress,
whose strength has not yet been meas
ured.
1t is certain to be antagonized, even
by influential leaders of the party of the
president.
1t may or it may not prevail.
Tomorrow's developments will at least
give some indication of it's probable fate.
The injection of this phase of the ques-
ton into the deliberations Of congress,
at all events, menaces speedy results.
1t is likely to proong debate, for the
reason that it does not correspond with
the popular view, and is in the nature of
new matter.
1t opens up vista of possible perplex-
ing complications and embarrassments,
the end of which is not readily discern
ible.
1t is strongly suggestive Of jobbery in
the political interest and in the interest
of American holders of Spanish war
bonds.
1t is tainted with the suspicion of the
perfect good faith of federal interven-
ton.
1t gives color to the suggestion that
the Cubans are tobe given independence
with an If.
1t also smacks of coercion.
1t in way clouds with doubt the dis
interested motives of the United States.
1t will give strength to the fear, widely
entertained abroad, that territorial ag
grandizement is the inspiration of our
interference.
1t is in the nature of special pleading,
since the question Of the ability Of the
Cubans for self government has never
been raised in this country. That is a
| distinctive Spanish contention.
We are ready to concede that there is
some ground for apprehension that n
wise, safe, decorous government may
not Immediately follow a suspensioni OF
armed hostilities.
We are prone to believe that a per-
feet system of government will result
only from patient patriotic endeavor
upon the part Of the statesmen Of the is
land, loyalty supported by the masses
Of the people.
We are willing to concede that this
country may take some risks in at once
recognizing the existing government.
But who can measure the difficulties

SPAIN GRANTS AN ARMIsTICE

The news comes by way Of Madrid and
Paris, and is confirmed at Washington,
that Spain has granted an armistice to
the insurgents in Cuba, and that the
diplomats are greatly pleased, believing
that war between the United States and
Spain has been averted.
| It takes two to make a trade. The
insurgents have not asked for an armis-
tice, and so far as is known do not want
one. Spain cannot force them to accept
it, and the powers of Europe will not.
Such a condition could be but an empty
form and of no real benefit to the Gu
| bans.
The proposed armstice is only another
diplomatic scheme on the part of Spain
to gain more time and greater oppor-
tunities to pu]. the wool over the eyes
of the government at Washington. 1t
paves the way for more negotiations.
Diplomacy is solid ground for the dons,
but it is mighty thin skating for Uncle
Sam. Spain never conceded point so
long as negotiations were in progress.
to fish or cut bait that the slightest SEM
blance OF concession was made.
If the insurgents refuse to accept the
armistce the case will stand just where
it did before.
Spain cannot declare an armistice in
the Maine matter. That feature of the
controversy is now coordinate with in
tervention. The revelations in the re-
ports of the congressional committees
touching upon the explosion may in
themselves be cause for war; The disas-
ter cannot be made a tool for jugglery
and delay.
1t is clear that Spain, finding the pres
ident so complaisant in postponing his
message to congress, hopes to further
delay the day Of judgment. Mr.. McKin-
ley now has congress and the American
people to consider. as we'll as the wishes
of Spain. The people have been slow to
wrath. but the time has come when
action must be taken that shall result
in reparation for the Maine and inde-
pendence for Cuba. Spain must put up
and shut up, or fight!
The further withholding Of the presi-
dents message, armistice or no armis-
tice, will be regarded by the American
people as an unfriendly act.
The herald., 1898-04-10

Successful armed intervention in Cuba,

MUST BE PIPES OR CIGARS.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 21.-The
anti-cigarette law passed by the last
Tennessee legislature is declared con-
stitutional in an opinion given by
Judge Caldwell, of the supreme court
of the state. The opinion declares
that cigarettes are not legitimate arti-
cles of commerce because they are
wholly noxious and deleterious to
health, and therefore are not within
the provision of the federal constitu-
ton protecting legitimate commerce.
1t also holds that the conventional
cigarette package is not an Original
package" in the true commercial sense,
for which additional reason the fed
eral law has no application to this
statute. The sale of cigarettes has
been stopped by order of the police.
The decision will likely be contested
in the federal supreme court.

MACOMB. No., Nov. 21.-The largest

has ever swept the Ozark mountains
since 1884 is now circumscribing this
town for miles and miles, north of and
parallel with the Memphis road. The
autumn heavy foliage has rapidly fall

gines yesterday afternoon. Ascope Of

flames, miles of fences, orchards,

animals, ard many old settlers homes
lie directly in the line of the ravaging
monster, while neighborhoods are ad-
vancing to the scene, but find them
selves totally unable to check the

hurriedly turn out stock ahead of the

Hong Kong firm of wrecl1ers to raise
three of the Spanish war vessels sunk
in the battle of Manila last May day.
The cost of raising the ships and
putting them in thorough repair will
be $780, 900. The vessels to be raised
are gunboats of large type, and, in the
opinion of Chief Constructor HIGH
