There was no scowling and expostulation
in Europe when there was talk of spain
sending a squadron to lombard the coast
of the United States. Not a word was
then sugse sted about serious complications
arising from the prospective lombard
ments. We did not squeal and whine
when we were threatened, but were pre-
pared to take things as they came and
make the best of them. And chat is what
Spain win have to do If it is the policy
of the United States to lombard the
coasts OF Spain, all of the growing and
shoulder-shrugging in Europe win not
stop It..

''In the Name of Humanity"
From the Chicago Chronicle Oem).

How many times have We boosted the
American government as by the people of
the people and for the people This idea
Is severely TO be shattered, altogether TO
disappear, IL we shall say, as il looks to be
necessary, that Garcia and his Cubans,
Aguinaldo and his Fillipnos shall have
no voice in the government, but shall be
held as strongly in hand as ever Spain
held them. We have gone to Cuba in the
name of humanity, but actuated really by
a spirit Of vengeance. In the name OF
humanity and mercy we win have to stay
shere.
