Mr. Gladstone and Cuba.

The greatest Engilshman since the days
of the younger Pitt is dying in circum-
stances awakening the profoundest sympa-
thy OF all the world. He has run a long
ard an n1ustrious course, and has done the
state much service. All men now confess
his splendid character 10 less than his
splendid abilities. and realize that he has
stood. upon all large questions, for the best
purposes of his day. He has impressed him.
self upon history as "A man of conscience
and convictions and of supreme moral
courage. He is leaving a legacy of many
admirable things accomplished. and of
others ATTEMPTED. and the lesson of his
life is an inspira ton to men of noble as
piTations everywhere.
The American view of Mr.. Gladstone
takes especially into account his courage
in reversing his policy toward Ireland. At
one time that policy was most severe. He
laid very heavy hand Ireland. He
sent Mr.. ParneH to prison. But when his
convictions underwent change, he did not
hesitate to confess it and come forward
with a scheme for home rule for Ireland of
the most liberal description. 1t cost him
the support of many of his old friends, and
made him for a time the most unpopular
of men at home; but he stood his ground
without finching, and has never ceased
to regret the defeat of his measure. He
held. and still holds, that violently dis
contented people are not only a menace,
but just reproach. to any government.
In the matter of Armenia Mr.. Gladstone
stood alone Gmcng European statesmen in
demanding full and energetic punishment
for Turkeys crime. He felt outraged that
Christian nations should refuse action in
q case where a WhCle people were handed
over thus to slaughter and pillage. He
urged his own home government 10 take
the initiative, and either redress the wrong
singlehanded, or force by good example the
other powers up to the scratch. This also
cost him much. The trimmsrs and the pol
iticianS sneered at his sentimentality, and
turned their backs on him. The Turk went
his bloody way and is still in treaty with
his Christian brethren.
Mr.. Gladstone has withdrawn his atten-
ticn from the affairs of this world. But
there can be doubt that, If in health
and active in government. he would cor
daily indorse the action of the United
States toward Spain. 1t is strictly in line
with his own teachings. 1t rises to the
dignity of what he prescribed for Europe.
For Turkey, one has only to read Spain;
for Armenia, Cuba. In the one case in
the other the right of people to live
ovarshadows all the rest. Only in Spain's
case is there the greater and the deeper
guilt, since the objects of her persecution
and condemnation to death are one with
her in language, in religious ties, and in
long association.
The United States salutes Mr.. Gladstone
as he departs for the Vale of Silence
with this unselfish championship of an
oppressed people. He has lived to see, If
not actively 10 note. his teachings put into
practice by his kin across the sea. but who

This is country Of free speech, and pro-
fessors in colleges as we'll as other people
have the right to entertain and express
such views as they please on questions OF
public concern. 1t occurs to us, however,
that If members of the faculty Of Harvard
University keep on at the rate they have
been going in the airing of their anti-war
sentiments the people of the United States
will come to regard that time-honored seat
of learning as a rather anti-American in
stitution. and think of looking around to
see II there are not other colleges where
their sons had better be sent to be edu-
Gated. Patriotism is good thing as well

restore the millions Of half cents that the
bakers, by their own confession, have been
obliged to take from their customers, but
it would put matters on an even basis. In
deed, as 9 matter of equity, 1t would be only
fair to permit the flour rates to go high
enough to represent further difference of
half a cent & loaf In favor of the customer,
without changing the retail price, as sort
of offset to this long-continued extortion.
Thus flour might go as high as seven, or
possibly, eight dollars without materially
affecting the retail bread rate. 1t Is now
about $5.75 a barrel. The time has not
come, by any means. for war-scare raise
in bread simply because wheat has been
cornered by an enterprising young Chiea-
goan and flour has been temporarily end
slightly raised in price accordingly.

More European Novelties.

The Vienna correspondent of the Lon
don Standard sends that newspaper the
following:
THE interest of Russia in the war is
evidenced by her leading statesmen in
starting the idea. which was soon taken
up by their colleagues at Berlin. Paris
and Vienna, that the first real naval bat
tie must be used for ending the war. which
practically means pressure on Spain 10
give UP To Cuba, because if the war lasts
too long. il is thought the United States
might create powerful navy.
Is it imDoss BILE for Europe when look
ing in this diI lection. to see straight? Could
anything be palmer than that, whether this
war is soon ended or long drawn out, the
United States will, as the result of 1t, be-
come one of the most powerful of sea
forces? Have we not for some years in
deed been making steady progress in the
way Of creating a powerful navy?" Does
not our only regret now grow out of the
fact that We have not been brisker? Eu-
rope ought to go to night school a little
and try to keep up with the transatlantic
times.
The intimation has been made before
that as soon as a shot or two has been
fired Europe will persuade Spain that
honor has been satisfied and she can
now retire with dignity from Cuba. This
is thoroughly European. 1t bears a Paris
ear-mark.
The suggestion comes from the so-called
field of honor" An old creature without
the semblance of honor: sot a sneak

No Fault-Findinr NOW.

From the Army and Navy Register.
The time for criticism has past. If there
were any differences of opinion in regard to
the objects of the present war, or in respect
to the reasons why war should be waged
with Spain. or whether there should be war
at all--if there have been differences they
should all be dispelleo now. There can BE-
no debate on whether the country should
have supporters in conflict with foreign
foe. In such a time whatever is Is right.
Whatever ends are devised for the victory
of the government, they are justifable and
worthy of hearty defense. The day for the
critics querulous voice is over 1t ended
before Congress declared war. Everything
which admitted Of question and of peevish
fault-finding disappeared when Spain sent
our minister away from Madrid. From that
hour Americans can do no better than to
