VI 9 1HIlSlldH nation! DO we believe
in settling our own differences as we'll
as those with foreigners by the pistol
and knife, or is it better to resort to
courts of justice?
BETTER THAN. WAR. ssaH
Tulare Register: The Tulare Regis
ter is apparently terribly frightened
of war. It refers to those patriotic
newspapers. which have the courage of
their convictions, as the coyote press.

Remove your gaze from Mckinley and
get your courage from Foraker and
Mason.-San Bernardino Times Index.
No, we are not fearful of the ultimate
consequences of a war with Spain, and.
as we have said time and again. if war
is the price which this country must
pay for withdrawal of Spain from this
continent that peace and justice may
reign hereafter, why let US pay it,
measure for measure and blow for
blow. Our only contention is that if
diplomacy can accomplish this end
without war, and we believe that it
might it is criminal to rush to war
without giving diplomacy the utmost
opportunity. At all events, we will not
accept Mason as our ideal of states
manship. Billy Mason is a mere polit
ical adventurer, whose career will be
short and inglorious. If his legs show
half the fight that his mouth will boast
of he will astonish the nation.
THE PRESIDENT INDORSED.
Stockton Independent: The Chamber
of. Commerce and the Board of Trade in
San Francisco do not agree with the
war-whoopers. Those bodies, whose in
terests are to preserve the peace and
dignity of the nation, and whose mem
bers are, to say the least of them, as
vitality interested as the proxy warriors
of the sidewalk or sanctum, have APP
proved the course of President McKin-
ley, as wise, dignified and deserving of
the cordial support of the citizens. This
action of those commercial bodies will
not suit the lingo editors They are for
war-and are as patriotic as was Ar
temus Ward, who was willing to sacr1-
fee all his wife's male relations to put
down the rebellion. War would make
newspaper sales enormous. but it would
greatly disturb all other business. The
merchants want peace if it can be
maintained without the sacrifice of
American dignity, but the war-whoop-
CARELESS of the country's dignity as
they are of their own, provided it be
admitted that they possess any of that
attribute of good citizenship.
WILL BE THE FIRST.
Fresno Republican: Mark the predic-
ton: If war is declared the people
who have been the loudest in denounc-
ing the President for not urging a hos
tile declaration will be the first to at
tack the Administration because it did
not prevent war.
WHAT CAN HE FEAR?"
Fresno County Enterprise: 'McKin-
ley fears to deal with Spain" is one of
! the full page scare headlines of a San
| Francisco daily. What can the Presi-
dent fear? He would be in even less
danger that the hot-sulphur- and-1ame
breathing writer of the lurid press if
! the horror of war was upon us-and
| the President knows by actual expert
ence exactly what that horror is. Prob
| ably that is what he fears-to have his
country plunged into war while there
is any hope of honorably averting it.

Sir William Harcourt, a great inter
put his opinion of record in these words
in favor Of justifying intervention by
one State in the affairs of another IN
the name of humanity:
The emancipation of Greece was a
high act of policy, above and beyond
the domain of law. AS an act of policy,
it was justifab1e; but it was not the
less a hostile act, which, if she dared,
Turkey might properly have resented
by war.
That is the law no doubt. Interven-
ton is, under certain conditions, justi-
fed by moral and international law.
Acting on precisely that basis England,
Russia and France in 1927 interfered
in behalf of Greece, and by threat of
force forbade the Turk to continue his
barbarities. Two years later an insur-
rection broke out in the Kingdom of
Naples, and Austria, without,a declara-
ton of war, sent an army of 60.OOU
men to suppress it and occupied the
England and France interfered in Bel
GUM, and French force captured and
occupied Antwerp. In 1851 the, French
army wrested Rome from the hands of
the Garibaldians, sin the interests OF
European order" as the declaration of
justification put it. Bosnia and Herr
ogovina were occupied by Austria as
late as 1873 lin the interest of order, -
as the justification ran. History bristles
all over with instances of intervention
Only a little while ago we of this coun-
try were sberating the powers of Eu-
rope for not interfering to put an end
to the alleged barbarities of the Turk
ish soldiery and fanatics, perpetrated
upon the Armenians, and, of course, our
| sole and only plea was that humanity
justified interposition by the strong

If unhappily there should be war
with Spain. since war is last des-
perate remedy for the righting of diff
ferences, both nations would be firmly
bound by the treaty of 1895, which is
still in full force and effect. 1t pro-
vides that in case Of war, for one year
after it's declaration, merchants in chief
cities and towns shall be secure in pro-
ceeding to collect what is due to them,
and in moving their goods and stores
to places of safety, and in which to
wind up their affairs of business. If
within that time anything is taken
from them or they suffer any injury
from either party, full satisfaction shall
be made to them by the Government
complained Of This treaty, therefore,
assumes grave Importance in case there
is a conflict at arms. However, II
there is war, it is unlikely that it will
continue year It will be more prob
able that it will be wound up in half
that time. But then the likelihood is
that there will be neither war nor
American humiliation. srsi-

bethe pleasure of the convention to express q

1t is Democracy's Year.

The interest manifested in the DEM
ocratic primaries last evening in Rock
Island and Moline is indicative of the
fact that the outcome is to be of I'M
usual significance in shaping the ,po-
litical affairs of the county next fall.
The democratic tidal wave which
swept through the county this spring
is to continue to high tide. The
party is to be reckoned in the selec-
ton of county officers in the forth
coming election as never before. The
democratic party, to be more specific,
is to select those county officers.
The party is enjoying par
ticularly advantageous position
in the solid, united front it presents,
as contrasted with the demoraliZed
and disorganized condition of the re-
publican party. 1t is but essential
for the democratic party to make the
choice of good men for the various
offices to be voted on to become tri-
umphant at the polls. With the ma
terial to select from it can hardly fail
in this. The party will sweep the
county in the autumn election.

Defects In Steel.

Different opinions have long been en-
tertained by practical experts as to the
causes of defects in steel, and attention
has lately been called by writer in
The Mechanical World to the fact, as
elected by the most careful and repeat
ed investigations, that most of the de-
fects peculiar to rails, plates and bars
are due to blowholes in the castings,
that is the ingots, such plates and bars
being rolled out Of what is supposed to
be a homogeneous ingot, but which is
liable to have q cavity inside, not de-
tectable by chemical or mechanical
tests, even though every rail were tested
in its entire strength.
The blowhole, according to this writ
er, might be in a position in the ingot
that it could not be rolled out, but
would remain in the center of the head
Of the rail, and that would run, per-
haps, about onefourth the length Of the
rail. If, however, the blowhole was in
some other part Of the ingot, il might
work ont as a flaw on the surface Of the
rail when finished, and this could be
detected by the inspector. But how to
detect the one which 10 hidden in the
head Of the rail-which cannot be done
BY the present and old mode Of inspeo'
tion-is the problem.
