HAVANA AND THE WAR.

Would the taking of Havana end the
war? 1t ought to. In fact, the Spaniards
ought to have taken steps in the direc-
ton Of peace Immediately after the battle
OF Manila. That engagement ought to
have convinced them that they had moth
ing to gain by the war. 1t would have
convinced them, in all probably. II they
had not been led to believe that the few
first-class ships they have are invulnera-
BILE, and practically invincible.
The taking Of Havana would of course
break SPANS power and dishearten her
people. 1t is not certain that IL would
end the war, however. Spain might In
sist on keeping M "a desultOry warfare
upon our com merce and coast cities. II
might become necessary for us to send. a
strong fleet to Spain. 1t is hardly proba
BILE. however, that such'a necessity would
arise. Stripped of all her colonial pos
sessions, she would be in such sorry
plight that Europe would insist upon her
acceptance of peace upon the best terms
she could get. While, therefore. it is not
certain that the fall of Havana and the
loss of Cuba would bring the war to an
end, the chances are that it would.-Sa-

AMENDMENT WRONG END FIRST.

With only ten dissenting votes the Sen
/ ate has adopted the resolution to ament
the Constitution so as to make May 4tl
p, instead Of March 4th the date OF Presi.
dental inauguration and of the incoming
, of new Congress-.
The proposed change is a change In the
wrong direction. There ought to be a
change, but 1t ought TO be precisely the
other way.
There Is only one argument In favor OF
the proposal as II stands, and that Is that
on May 4 there is apt to be better wealth
er for a "jahboree" than on March 4th.
But why should there be any "jamboree"
when great serious nation changes its
Executive and its legislature.
Under the proposed amendment a per-
haps rejected, defeated President must
remain In power for six months after the
people have elected his successor. A
Congress the majority Of whose members
have been rebuked for their sins by de-
feat must remain In control of legislation
for like period, and the new Congress
supposed to be fresh from the people,"
cannot meet in regular session until thr-
teen months after its election.
Change the date by all means, but
change 1t to the beginning of January.
So shall we sooner secure really repre-
government.-Worl

To nominate the following candidates
to-wit: Two justices of the Supreme

FLORIDA MAY FURNISH THE
CIGARS.
J. c. COOPER, Secretary,

The Cuban war has done one big thing
for this country; II has compelled recog-
milton, indirectly, OF the value of Florida
lands for the production Of the finest to-
bacco in the world. In the course of his
recent trip to the South, Secretary of Ag-
riculture Wilson was astonished to dis
cover that 100000 Havana cigars were
actually grown and manufactured at
present on the Florida peninsula. AL
ready great areas In the western part of
the State are planted with this crop. and
extensive arrangements have been made
for its introduction into the central reg
ion. Thus, 1t may be expected that be-
fore long Florida will rival Cuba as a to-
bacco producer, In respect to the Quanti-
ty OF yield, while the quality Of its cigar
leaf seems to be quite equal to that of the
famous Vuelta Abajo All the condi-
lions of climate in Florida favor the pro-
duction of the highest grade OF tobacco.
The soil is much like that of Cuba. aud
by the aid OF the system of spraying that
initiates natural rainfall, the plants are
ripened In forty five days after they are
put out. Tobacco can be grown almost
all the year, and crops can be set ont In
every month nearlv.-Cincinnati Enquir-

NEW SEA POWER FACES EUROPE

New York, May IA dispatch to the
World from Berlin says: A new power
has sprung up. fully armed, the Berlin
newspapers proclaim, bringing to the ma
tions of Europe consequences that can
not be foreseen but certain to be momen-
tous.
The novel situation created by Ameri-
can occupation of the Philippines is the
subject of the leading articles in today S
journals. These articles may be summed
us as follows:
America must either hold the Philip
pines herself or transfer them to some
European power.
Restoring them to Spain is impossible.
1t is equally impossible that, they should
remain in the hands OF the native insur-
gents. Signs are multiplying that the
people in authority in the United States
will decide to retain the island as an
American posse ssion Notwithstanding the
fact that this will eventually entail upon
the people the necessity of maintaining a
larger armv and navy aud will bring
more danger OF imbrogios with the Eu-
ropean powers having large interests in
the east.
England. Japan and Russia are .he
only possible competitors for possession
should America withdraw.
IL England should become the owner of
the Philippines. the United STATES would
see that she gave up the British West
Indian possession In exchange.
Japan has poor chance. Her compe-
titlon with America In China is keen and
the United States will do nothing to help
her. Besides, she could give nothing in
exchange.
Russia and America always have been
close friends. 1t is Just possible that
America may purchase Russia's continu-
ed friendship by checkmating england.
This much. however. is certain-if the
United States concede anything ia Rms
sia they will incur instantly the hostility
Of England.
THE whole situatlsn Is beset with diff
ficulties."

The Timcs-Union and Citizen SAYS:
The offers Of private citizens to contrib
ute money and vessels and big guns are
continually declined on the ground that
1t "verges too near on privateering." Yet
Spain is soliciting contributions to her
war-fund in neutral capitals. Are we not
drawing too fine distinctions? TO accept
such offers would be well for the Govern.
ment, and prove the patriotism of the
wealthy for future reference.

THE SITUATION IN CUBA.

Doubtless our army Leaders arefully in
formed as to the cooperation they may
expect from our friends In Cuba, but thu
public cries so loudly for movement on
Havana that the situation is possibly lit
tie understood. We continually hear dec
larations that we need only arm and equip
waiting Cubans to call into existence al
army of $1,000 men that would be amply
sufficient to take Havana In conjunction
with our navy.
Those Cubans have done splendid work
as guerrillas under great difficulties, but
they are not drilled, and numerous ar
my of them would have little conference,
and. perhaps, small efficiency In case of a
pitched battle In the open field.
Gomez has about $500 men within TWEEN
ty-fve days march Of Havana How
long would 1t take him to concentrate his
forces and show anc We army of 50, :
600 men under the W
Unless we have I'm army
strong enough TO keep the niards
within their lines, the chase OF BL.ncO's
army from one post to another after the
forts have been Knocked down by the ma
Wy might entail summers campaign
on our troops more destructive then an
assault. %
The problem Is not a simple one; the
organization of an effective army of Gu
bans does not depend entirely on the ship
ment Of supplies, and by all means we
should avoid protracted summer cam
paign in Cuba. Itisa proof of generalship
to utilize overwhelming force on a par
ticular point when this is available, and
wait in Florida is better than to strike in
Cuba before we are prepared.
And when we do strike, let US be glad
of help from Gomez. but fully prepared to
win on our own resources. We have the
men and money; IL these are properly
handled there can be no doubt of the re-
sult.-Times- Union and Citizen.
