PRESIDENT WILSON ON THE
WAR.

In his address before the Washing
ton and Lee University body April ~
President Wilson referred to the be-
ginning of actual hostilities with SPAR
and explained the declarations con.
tanned n the Treaty of Paris and rules
regulating blockades.
"Whatever may have been ou1
views said Mr.. Wilson, sup to this
time, since our country has spoken
there can be no difference now. We
all heartily pray for it's success in every
encounter and that it may bring the
war to speedy and successful termi-
nation with increase of honor to the
American nation"
Referring to the proclamation OF the
President declaring blockade of The
chief ports of Cuba, he explained that
blockade under international law is
the closing Of the enemy's ports and
coast to neutral commerce. As
this seriously affects the inter-
ests OF neutral nations. they
have right 10 insist-frst, upon for.
NAL notice; and second, that the block.
ade must be real one. The practice
OF paper blockades resorted to by
France and England during the Napo
leonic wars was so unjust and so har-
RAISING to neutral commerce that, after |
the Crimean war, in the Treaty of
Parls, the leading nations agreed that |
blockades be binding must be effective
and this principle is now recognized by
oil civilized nations as a rule of inter-

the skin, invigorate the system and en-
rich the blood. Chronic catarrh in all
phases and stages, cases that have de-
fed the best of treatment for many
years, take few bottles of Pe-ru-na to
their entire relief. Nervousness, debili-
ty, weaknesses of both sexes, sleepless-
ness, irritability, dependency, hypo-
chondria, all these disappear when Pc
ru-na is used according to directions.
One Of the most instructive books on
chronic catarrh ever furnished free is
being sent by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manu-
featuring Company, Columbus, Ohio.
This book is very instructively illustrat-
ed with expensive drawings, and will be
sent free to any address.

rational law and national Justice.

national law and national Justice.
Violation Of blockade by neutral ship
involves the confscation of both ships
and goods, and a blockade runner is
liable to capture from the time it leaves
the home port until it reaches that port
on its II turn. A blockade is frequently
a most effective means of wagipg war,
and Mr.. Wilson declared that it was
largely tErou h TIE persistent and sue
cessful blockade of the southern ports
that the UniteI 81 ties succee led IN re-
ducing lie Confedeiacy.
Pr watering, be said, was The use Of
private vessels, armed, equipped and
oficere by private persons under a
commission from beligerent to pray
upon vessels and property of its enemy
at sea f private gain.
LOCALIZED PIRACY.
1t has some of the features of lega-
lized piracy and tended to create
trouble with neutrals. The declaration
of Paris abolished privateerirg be-
tween the parties thereto, and this
declaration has been agreed to by al
important nations except the United
States, Spain and Mexico. Our reason
for not agreeing originally was that we
did not maintain large naval estab-
lishment, we must in war use our COM
mercial marine. We had offered to
agree if the rue were intended to pro-
tect all private property, not contra
band, at sea as it is generally protec ed
on land.
CONFEDLRACY HAD NO PaIvATEERS
In Our Civil war the United States
commissioned no privaieers. as The
South had no commerce to pray upon,
and the threat of The United States 10
treat as pirates all foreigners who ac-
cepted commissions offered by the Con-
federate States, with the warning Of
the foreign governments, that they
would not protect their subjects &C.
cepting such commiss on, prevented
the issu1g of letters by the Confed-
e-cy. The so-called Confede ate pri-
vateers were really commissioned ships
o ne Confederate navy. The Presi-
dent had signi6ed his intention to
abide by the Paris declaration, and
Spain has announced like intention
for the present, though reserving the
right to change her policy in the pro-
gross of war.
In all the history OF Spain, said Mr.,
Wilson, her people have never shown
any lack of courage OF indurance or
even herosm, but modern wars, es-
pecially naval wars, now call into pay
50 much expert scientific knowledge
and so much mechanical intelligence
that our immense superiority in both
these respects, as well as in enterprise
aud IN quickness Of action and decision
turn the chances decidedly in our favor
even in combat Of APPARENTLY equal
forces.
