A heated controversy has been
started as to who is entitled to the
credit for the naval victory off Santi-
ago. Some say Sampson, because he
was in command of the fleet. But
Sampson was. absent at the time on
necessary business and took no part
in the battle. Others say Schley, be-
cause he was the ranking officer pres
ent and directed the battle. But to
compliment Schley and promote him
while ignoring Sampson looks a little
unjust to Sampson. The latter had
made the plans and disposition of
ships that made victory possible.
Under him the discipline and wonder
full gunnery had been perfected that
brought such a signal triumph. If

done just what Schley did. At the

The annexation of Hawaii is one
step, even though short one, toward
Imperialism. 1t marks an epoch. 1t
is the first time we have added to our
territory from remote distance. 1t
is the first time we have ever placed
in line for statehood a people whom
we consider in great part to be incapa-
BILE of self-govcrnment. The native
Hawaiians, the Chinese and japanese
who form the great bulk of the popu-
lation are utterly unfit to exercise the
right of suffrage and always will be.
The little knot of Americans and
Europeans who control the islands are
the only residents capable of holding
the trust. 1t is expected that in time
the flow of American colonists and
American ideas will revolutionize the
islands and make them capable of a
great deal in the way of political re-
sponsibility that they are not equal to
now History shows basis for this
belief. The annexation of Hawaii
Falone is too small a matter to cause
much trouble. When it comes to Gu
ba, Porto Rico, the Philippines, the
Ladrones, the Carolines and possibly
other islands of the sea it will be well
to pause and consider what propose
to do in the way of government for
them. Most Americans have too ex-
allied an idea of American citizenship
to want it conferred on savages and

Hawaii has been annexed at last
1t is very doubtful if this would have
been done, certainly not at present, il
the exigences of war had not furnished
strong reason for it. In making the
voyage to the Philippines, it is abso-
lutely necessary for our war vessels to
coal somewhere along the journey

International law forbids neutral gov

out that il Hawaii should follow the
proper course instead of the improper
one she has been pursuing we would

the other reasons that existed in "a.

ors, even to the stokers, the strongest
acknowledgment is due. It's too bad
they can't all be admirals.

Probably the most fatal shipwreck
of modern times was that of last week
in which the French liner, La Bour-
gogne, was sunk in a collision of
Sable island, not far from the coast of
Nova Scotia. Out of ia persons
aboard, $50 were lost. A very small
per cent of the saved were passengers.
This fact corroberates the stories told
by some of the survivors of the mis-
conduct of the crew. 1t seems to be
true that these men whose duty it was
to look out for the safety of the pas
sengers not only neglected them but
rushed to the small boats themselves
and fought off all they could in most
inhuman manner in order that they
might be sure of their own lives. Only
one woman out of POO was saved. This
disaster demonstrates anew the lack Of
nerve of the French people in the face
of danger. They have plenty of bra
very, but it is not accompanied by the
GOODNESS that makes it effective. In
this instance the crew ought to pay
the penalty for what is little less than
murder.

Justly or unjustly there is a belief
that too much sugar has been the trou-
bic with the United States senate. The
belief takes the form of strong suspicion
in connection with the opposition in

ence of ex.Queen Lil's emissaries in
Washington at this time which is bring
ing President Dole of Hawaii on hur-
ried trip to Washington SO much as the
suspicion of sugar in and about the
United States senate. Senators who op-
pose the treaty need to take very particu-
lar pains to prove to the country that
there is no refined sugar sticking to their
fingers. This is for the sake of their own
reputation. The country expects it Of

Curfew Ordinance.

The Boys and Girls National Home
and Employment association was organ
lied in 1890. It's chief object was to
find ways to stop the alarming increase
of crime among children and youths. In
1894 the organization recommended as
an experiment the passing in cities of
the SO called curfew ordinance. 1t re-
quired that children under is, unless
they had permit or were accompanied
by their parents or guardians should not
be out upon the street after 8 o'clock in
summer or o'clock in winter.
Western cities took up the matter and
began enacting the ordinance one after
another, until in the three years elaps-
ing since the movement commenced 800
have it on their municipal statute books.
Among them are such large places as
Omaha, Denver, Topeka, Kansas City
and St. Joseph, Mo.
1t is to be noted that the results of
the enactment, so far as reported, are
invariably good. There has been no
trouble enforcing the law. Children
quietly go to their homes at the required
hour without any admonishment. May
or Graham of Lincoln, Neb., says that
in the first month after the passage Of
the ordinance arrests Of youths decreas-
ed rs per cent. In St. Joseph COM
mitments to the reform school have di-
minished one-half. Since the ordinance
was passed in North Platte, Neb., there

form school. In Lincoln teachers report

more quiet and orderly in school since
they have been taken out of that school

In Havana.

Sc It is Weyler, still and always Wey.
Ter, ,yho is responsible for the rioting at
Havana. The most significant fact con-
nectsd with it is that the mobs were
actually headed by regular officers Of
the Spanish army. Among tories and old
fogies in every place are to be found the
men who have amassed wealth. Their
possessions have made them timid, re-
dictionary. Accordingly it is not strange
that the inhabitants of Havana who adj
hered most firmly to the loyalist cause
have been the wealthy merchants. These
have outtoried even the Conservative
party in Spain. They were the most de-
termined upholders Of Weyler's tyran-
nical and cruel course.
; When, therefore, autonomy was pro
posed hy the liberal cabinet Of Spain,
the adherents Of Weyler in Havana op-
posed it bitterly. Weyler, though in
Spain, prompted their actions still. The
wealthy tories of Havana would see
their island sunk into the sea before
they would accept even such autonomy
as the Spanish government offered. The
next step was to resist autonomy by
force. Most prominent among the rioters
next to officers and soldiers of the Span
ish army were rich merchants. These,
Spanish officers and soldiers and rich
Havana tories, were the ones who turned
against their own queen and govern
ment and mobbcd their fellow towns
men who favored General Blanco's
course. It is the sure beginning of the
end of the war of Cuban independence.

squadron happens just now conveniently

The London Lancet puts forth a tho
DRY which will make cold shivers run
down the spine Of youths and maidens
who are what is vulgarly called in
love. 1t says that mad love and drunk
enness from alcohol are identical in their
symptoms and effects on the nervous
system. Both produce disease and alb
normality. When one is madly in love,
ne has no common sense or correct judy
ment left. It is just SO when he is drunk
on alcohol. Alcohol and mad sslove''
produce alike temporary exaltation of
the nervous system, unreal in both cases
and sure to be followed by SOLDERING up
which brings bitter regrets always to the
alcohol drunkard and nearly always to
the love drunkard. According to this
profound medical teaching, therefore,
when young man or woman is wildly
in love he or she should pull up in time
and remember that it is only a case of
drunk. The. cure for both alcoholism
and mad love is separation, The Lancet
declares. E., .. Z. -
