BILE ON ITS STOMACH.
The Correo Espano publishes a far
ing article against the government,
| asking the ministers derisively where
they will go after making every pos
sible concession and yielding even the
honor of Spain TO Mckinley
This caused the Correo Espano to say
that the ministry is a "contemptuous
clique when we contemplate the coward
ice on one side and the yillainy on the
other" We must be governed by the
hermaphrOdites OF Athens and must
hide the tears which run the cheeks
while the lips curl in supreme sarcasm.

bile turns in our stomachs, anger heats
our blood. and our hands instinctively
seek an avenging weapon.

The feeling in Madrid is stronger

specting Cuba.

preservation of order reveal anxiety"

ment, and the impression which gen.
orally prevails is that if an external
war is avoided, an internal conflict is
certain.
