that little saving in first cost is not

in fruitfulness. Maybe the meaning Of
this war has not yet been brought
home to the Spaniard in such a way
as to enable him to meet, with forti-
tude, the consequences which must fol-
low. the vicissitudes which must come
to him in a governmental way. The
scenes of the conflicts nave been far
removed from his home. The men who
have fallen have been largely Of the
chan and floating overplus. The Span
lard does not yet appreciate the destiny
involved in the situation, or fails to
understand that the American nation
after all is not an uncouth and savage
people. Whatever Madrid may have
thought. the people Of Spain are un-
convinced, and it's army does not be-
lieve the struggle to be a hopeless one.
1t may be that the people Of the proud
and rich old cities of Barcelona, Sc
vile, Cordova and many others must
not only realize the might Of their an
tagonist but the unrighteousness Of
their own cause, ere they will stand
firm against a bloody revolution at
home. Maybe that unsubstantial thing
chung to as hereditary pride will have
to be crushed If Spain would live. The
present condition of Spain is bad
enough, deplorable, but it would be
fold worse were her people to
fail of realizing that the war was
hopeless one from the start and that
there would be nothing gained by re-
pudiation and revolution at home.

1T WON'T GO DOWN.

The dispatches Of yesterday morning
were deployed in two or three Skin
mishes in assuring the American peo-
pie that Major General Miles and his
staff did not so down to Cuba to su-
percede General Shafter just as Shat
ter had rendered a surrender or a big
victory certain. 50 also were several
dispatches certifying to America that
Germany's warships were not annoy
ing Dewey. We don't believe either
representation. The victory or surren-
der at Santiago viii be claimed to
have occurred under Major General
Miles commanding," which in military
circles leaves the honors Of the field To
him. But 1t will not be so in the est
nation Of the American people. The
public know just as much Of the des-
serts OF the situation at Santiago as
the war department. Miles did not
have a single thing TO do with it. No
body is inclined to criticise Miles rec
ord as a fighter in the past. but he has
done none Of il in this war. and the
chances are that he viii not. At any
rate. these apologizing and assuring
dispatches will tend to anger the Amer
lean people. who. in not being hero
worshippers. viii not brook the depre-
eating OF deserved merit nor be fooled
by pretence. though covered all over
with gold lace and ostentaton. What

A NEW WAR RULE.

The most unique thing in the history
of civilized warfare is the proposition
made by the United States to accept
the surrender of Santiago and to send
all prisoners back to their homes in
Spain. The proposition is as full Of hui
mainly as Of wisdom. 1t was made to
contravene human slaughter upon the
one hand, and in rendering further re-
sistance impossible, upon the other, to
avoid the expense and responsibility of
caring for thirty thousand prisoners
simply by transporting them beyond
the field Of action and leaving them at
the same time at their homes with
their families, safe and sound in Spain.
In one view of the case it is to spank
the naughty Spaniard and send him
home. In another it is such an exhibi-
ton of superiority and of considera-
ton as wiz tend to make the Old
World hold its breath in establishment.
If full of Yankee cuteness, it is never
theless grand and glorious, inspired by
that sentiment which holds all the
world to be akin.
OF course there is the more practical
side of the proposition. AS We gather
it from the dispatches, the plan is to
send all but the more prominent per-
sons back. That it would be much
cheaper to pay the cost of transporta-
ton than to pay the cost of mainten-
ance, for feeding and clothing, of the
prisoners is apparent. Ordinarily the
retention of prisoners is to prevent
their reinforcing the enemy. In this
case it would be impossible for the re-
leased Spanish tars to render effective
service to their country in Cuba be
cause they would have no means Of
reaching Cuba after being returned to
Spain. Transports. unprotected by
Spanish cruisers, would not dare to
cross the Atlantic. If the returned tars
were placed on new Spanish ships, now
under construction. as they went into
commission. that would be about what
the naval authorities Of this country
would like, inasmuch as it would has
ten the time Of the new cruisers throw
Ing themselves in the way Of a Dewey
or Schley, and to hasten a repetition
Of Manila and Santiago. The only use
to which a Spanish prisoner can now
be put is for exchange purposes, but
the Spaniards hold no prisoners to ex-
change It would seem that every
thing can be said in favor Of the prop
osition to send the captured tars back
TO Spain and nothing against it.

Senator Bate Of Tennessee told me an
anecdote Of Col. Tom Sumter that l have

be heard for miles. On one occasion

Molly gone. his rage knew no bounds

night. Then he depioyed his forces around
the camp and told them 70 await his orders
to fire. He was afraid Of Molly beng

thing ready he opened his big mouth AMI

Santiago is Fallen j.!

With credit gone, the cap
itaI of her greater province
surrendered, her two naval
fleets at the bottom of the
sea, and her rulers and peO-
pie Wran9Iin9 to the verge OF
revolution, the beginning of
the end has undoubtedly been
reached for Spain and peace
must nov come or her de-
structiOn as a dynasty swift
Iy follow. The terms of yes
ferday's surrender will go
down as an unparalleled in
stance in the history of bat
ties. The crinSin9 survivor
of heredity behind fOrtifca-
lions gray with centuries, su-
pineIy yields to the indie
pendent seIf-reIiant man of a
newer and erander ciViIiza-
ton who, in caring for his foe
in the hour Of that foes ex-
tremity and defeat proves to
the world the grandeur of
his more lofty conceptions
and the nobility of the type
and pattern of his manhood.
Santiago, the ancient capital
from which COrteS sailed TO
plant his Spanish rule upon
the ruins of the MOntezumas,
is fallen, and as the news,
WaVe-Hke, rolled to the Dor
ders of the world there went
with it the conviction of
Cuba's freedom and Ameri-
cas- broader destiny.

WILL BE REPUBLICAN.


The next senate will be Republican.
The combination Of Populists and Sill
verites that has thus far been able in
emergencies to put brake on the pro-
ceedings will go out of business after
the 4th Of March next. The election in
Oregon shows the depth Of public feel
ing on this matter. The senate now
consists of A Republicans, "a Demo-
Gratis IS Populists, 3 Silver Republi-
cans, 2 Silverites and l Independent.
Oregon is short one member but the
new legislature will fill the vacancy
with Republican. This will give the
Republicans exactly half the member
ship. 1t is also figured that Republi-
cans will take the place Of the Demo-
cratic senators now sitting from New
York, New Jersey, California and Wis
consin. To win in only one of these
states gives the Republicans a ma

WHERE THE NOISE IS FROM.

According to the report of our consul
at Shanghai there was exported from
China during the last year IS, 7O5, 1873
pounds Of frecrackers. There are no
large manufactures Of this aggravat-
ing explosive. The crackers are all
made in small houses and in the shops
where they are sold. In the latter
places the proprietor of the shop, his
wives and children do the work. The
prices are not uniform. In some ports
a tael, or GO cents. will buy 5000 fire
crackers of the ordinary size; at others
10000 crackers will be sold for the same
amount; at Chung King, where they
are cheapest, the price is one tael for
$1,000. 1t is a good thing for quietly
disposed people in this country that
importers, jobbers and retailers sever
ally multiply these prices, and thereby
keep the consumption within bounds
