Indemnity of the Maine.

In the event that the only evidence
we can obtain for the destruction 0
our battleship, will be of that char
acter, which will place the blame on
Spanish subjects, and not on the
Spanish Government, the legal aspect
OF the situation, from the technical
standpoint OF international law. would
not constitute a just cause for war.
Ii we stand upon mere technical
lily in the face of such a selfevident
motive, as actuated the destruction
of the Maine, in the harbor of
Havana. why then the kind of indem-
nifty this country should demand of
Spain, is rather an important matter.
There is not enough money in the
world to heal the broken hearts.
whose loved ones went down in the
Maine. through the murderouS cow
ardice of Spanish hell hounds, neither
can money replace the ship for several
years. Then the only real indemnity |
that Spain can pay the United States, |
would be about 100000, 900 to the
families whose loved ones lost their
lives, and transfer to this Government
the very best battleship in the Spanish
navy, fully equipped with all modern
Of naval warfare. By
such a demand, this Government
