The nation whose men do not walk

The Americans live months without

hullocks and sheep in enormous guam
titles; they have to la The frequently:
they eat meat with knives and prongs:

NEXT COMES PORTO RICO.

There are plenty of puzzles hanging
to the Spanish plum and the pro-
gram of war for Cuba. One of these
is Porto Rico. Spain once whipped,
and the independence of Cuba ack-
nowledged, there is another of the
Antilles still held by Spain which
must be looked after and disposed of.
Porto Rico is loyal to Spain. Spanish
people are in the majority. That rich
island has not rebelled against Spain.
by act or word. for more than sixty
years,and its people seem well content
with their government Yet Spain
cannot be driven from the American
half of the world without changing
the destiny Of Porto Rico. The island
is too far from Cuba to be made a
part Of the proposed Cuban republic.
and since its people are now nearly as
numerous as those Of Cuba, the Gu
bans might not desire TO risk becoming
embarrassed by such a connection.
We are TO so TO war. 1t seems, with
a distinct disavowa of any desire or
intention TO take a foot of Spanish
territory. If We live UP to that pro-
gram Porto Rico VIII not ba made
American. and If its Inhabitants c.
not want independence what shall be
done with them and their island?

KANSAS IN EVIDENCE.

The AtChison Globe says that at is
simply impossible for anything import
ant to happen in this blessed country
without j Kansas man being intimate

on the Maine was commanded by a
Kansas man: the first resolution for a.
war with Spain Was introduced by a
Kansas man. and the man buried

Kansas is. true enough. the pivot and
the perfedvidum ingenium- In being
the central state her Individual in

spicuous role on the periphery Of the

TWELVE MILLION SOLDIER PAT
RIOTS.

The London Daily Chronicle, as
quoted in yesterdays dispatches sizes
I'D America about right when 1t says
America stands in different category
from Greece; that America is very
great power, intensely proud and en-
tireIy self-contained, and that she
can't be bullied by the heroes of the
Cretan blockade; and that, if pressed
TOO closely, will clear the entire situa-
ton. That is the whole truth in
nutshell. and it comes from source
while most hattering, it is in no sense
fiattery. America could come nearer
whipping the whole world in a ten
years war than any other power. Look
at the land today. 1t is flaming with
the spirit Of war. School boys are
forming regiments to whip the dynasty
which has been penning up the people
Of its principal colony and starving

students and artizans stand for aveng-
ing the Maine; women are telegraphinS
the president to consign diplomacy to
hades, while merchants and mechan-
les. preachers and everybody, are pa
'triotcally pledging aid. Convicts in
the penitentiary are asking to be sent
to the front, and tramps congregate in
box cars and resolve that congress
talks too much. Offering in the mean
time to take the first empty freight to
the scene of conflict. The Spanish sec
rotary of war announces that Spain
las million of men subject 10 mill
tary duty. Only yesterday morning
Gen. Miles made the official announce
'nent that the United States, from the
official militia rolls. could muster
twelve millions Of men. a greater
number than the combined standing
armies Of all Europe. America is lack
ing in neither men. money nor pa
triOtism.

national defenses. and already the
question of a canal to the Atlantic OF
the Hudson Bay is being discussed
The Chicago Inter Ocean declares that
IF England can close the WeIland ca
nal against US in case of war with any
European power, then we must have
canal from the great lakes to the
Hudson or the Atlantic wholly In
American territory, and the sooner it
is constructed the better. The Incl
dent of the Welland canal also en-
phasizes the Importance of completing
the ship canal from Chicago to the
Mississippi. In case of war we must
have water way from the great lakes
to the sea wholly in American terri
tory" The construction of a canal
connecting the great lakes with the
Mississippi would solve more problems
than one, and it has long been agitat-
ed as the solution of the overflow sys-
tenn in the Mississippi valley. Billions
Of dollars worth Of property is expos
ed around the lakes, and the only pro-
lection would be in blowing up the
Welland canal a task by no means
easy of accomplishment. We must
prepare for war while enjoying peace,
and if the lake districts are wise they
will agitate an outlet to the sea in
more than one direction.

LETTERS OF MARQUE.

In view OF the all around conceded
proposition that the effort Of the
United States will be first to invest
Havana and then capture Cuba, the
concentration of the Spanish war feet
on the west coast Of Africa at the
Cape Verde Islands is difficult to I'M
derStand by the average landsman.
This country is not going to cross the
ocean to the other side Of the earth to
free Cuba or to whip Spain. This
government has got nothing on the
east side Of the Atlantic 10 protect
unless it be a few scattered merchant
ters of marque before an open declar-
alton Of war or some overt act. How
ever, there seems to be no question
that the Spanish navy is rounding up
or rendezvousing at the islands named,
and that Spanish ship owners are call
ing home their ships. number of
these Spanish ships are safe in port,
but not all of them. References to the
shipping lists and Lloyd's register at
London Will locate all of those ships
from day to day, or will report what
port they left last. and whittier bound,
50 that their whereabouts can be es-
timated. 1t is the same way with
American vessels. The owners have
for some time been prudent enough to
keep captains advised Of what might
happen. The Venezuela has just ar
rived at New York from a southern
agent at Caracas and by him sealed
and delivered to the captain, and not
to be read until the ship was five hours
at sea, and not even then if any land
was in sight. These orders proved to
be instructions to the captain not to
land at an expected port in Porto Rico,
where thirty-three passengers were
waiting to take the ship to New York;
also not to take the usual course be-
tween Porto Rico and Hayti, but to
run TO the eastward through the
Windward island channels. This was
done, and the passengers were not ad-
vised of it until the ship was day out
and they were expecting a sight of
Porto Rico. No doubt similar precau-
tons have been taken by other Ameri-
can ships in gulf of West India wa
ters. Spanish sailing craft that left
port prior to the development of the
present war feeling are still unaware
Of the danger that they are in, and
would still be, should war break out
today. Many Spanish steam vessels
are in the same predicament. There
would be rich pickings for privateers
were the United States to engage in
that kind of warfare. There would
also be much wealth belonging to this
country at the mercy OF SPANS
cruisers, but with that side of the
question this has nothing to do. 1t
deals with SPANS ships alone, and
the number of craft that may fall into
the clutches of Americans upon the
outbreak of war. In all there are 200
of these as shown by Lloyds register
and port lists.

ABOUT TIE BED CROSS

The Havana papers cast slurs on
of the Red Cross society, intimatiug
that the provisions sent by our peo-
pie for the relief of the starving Gu
bans were of a damaged quality. 1t
is almost inconceivabIe that our work
ofcharity on that island. or the sacri-
fees made by the members Of the Red
ity could be deprecated or condemned.
Perhaps it is the Spanish nature
They have shown no disposition to
minister TO the distress in Cuba, and
even the appropriation Of 5000, 000 said
to have been ordered by Spain, upon
the remonstrances of President Nc
Kinley. has not as yet been forthcom-
ing.
The Red Cross society is interna-
tionaI. The organization grew out of
the French and Italian war of 1853
The first general government authori-
cation of the work and purposes of
the society was made in Switzerland
Twelve governments first signed the
treaty, soon after April 49,, and now
forty governments have agreed to be
bound by the ten articles of the Red
Cross association, Japan being the last
to join. Three conventions have been
held since the first One~-one in 1867 in
Paris. another in 1863 in Geneva, and
the last in 1884 in Geneva At the sec
ond one fifteen additional articles were
adopted. the last ten of which pertain
to naval warfare.
The American branch Of the Red
Cross society was formed under the
direction of Clara Barton, and it in
Guided in its purposes not only relief
of the injured in time of war, but also
during great caIamities, such as fam
ines. pestilence. flood or fire. This fea-
ture of the Red Cross work, which is
known as the American amendment"
received the unanimous sanction of the
national and international commit
tees.

Of a gentleman. At the last, when on
board the Fern, and clear OF Havana
harbor, no longer accredited to the
Spanish authorities in Cuba as the
agent of the United States, General
Lee felt free to speak as an American
citizen. This was his farewell TO Sen
or Blanco, sent verbally by the Ha-
vana pilot. who took the ship out:
Tell BIanco that this is the last ship
of the American navy which will pass
out of this harbor with the Spanish
flag flying over Moro Castle, and that
our next war vessel in this port W.
