of ascertaining if it were possible to

ASIDE from purely religious and hui
manitarlan reasons the Pope had the
strongest possible financial reasons for
desiring a settlement of the differences
between the United States and Spain
without resort to war. Seventy-five
years ago there were at least $50, 900
priests of the Catholic church in Spain
and tens of thousands of nuns, and so
vast were the property accumulations
OF the church that it had absorbed a
very large part of the entire wealth of
the country and clericalism was a rul-
ing factor in politics until 1885 when
the defeat of the clerical party was fol-
lowed by sweeping DEGREES of confisca-
ton against church property. For
nearly twenty-five years there was a
constant struggle between the Spanish
government and the Vatican which
was finally terminated by the sale of an
immense amount Of church property
and the issuance to the church of inter-
est bearing bonds to the amount of sew
eral hundred millions of dollars. These
bonds are still held by the Catholic
church and constitute large part OF
the Spanish national debt.

The earthly career of one of the
greatest men of the 10Th century and
one of the grandest figures in British
history is ended. William Ewart Glad
stone, "the Grand Old Man" Of Eng
land, is dead, having passed peacefully
away at his home at Hawarden early
in the morning of May 10th. He was
born in Liverpool December 20, 1909,
and was accordingly SS years, months
and 20 days old at the time of his death.
His father, Sir John Gladstone. was a
merchant and it is said of the son that
che inherited that commercial spirit
which regards business as the first con-
Germ of human life." He was strictly a
"business statesman" He entered
public life as member OF parliament
at the early age of % and from that
time on for sixty years was almost con-
tinuously in the public service in some
important capacity. He was junior
lord of the treasury at the age of 25,
under colonial secretary a year later,
colonial secretary in 1916, chancellor of
the exchequer in 1852 and 1859, and
four times prime minister of the Brit
ish empire, for terms beginning in 1866,
1880, 1886 1892. His long and eventful
life covered one of the most remarkable
periods of progress and development in
the worlds history, and so great has
been his own part in it all that "for
years beyond our ken, the light he
leaves behind him will shine upon the
paths of men,"

THE UNFORTIFIED TOWNS.

There is great uneasiness along our
long eastern seaboard about a possible
descent of Spanish warships. SO far as
international law is concerned the UNI
fortified towns should have no fear.
International law is the development
of treaties and usage. The security OF
the unfortified town is based OH defin-
ite treaties. Article XIV. of the report
of the conference of Brussels, held in
1874, on the rules Of military warfare,
and signed by delegates from sixteen
governments, reads thus: Fortified
places are alone liable to be besieged.
Tow rs, agglomerations of houses or vii
lagos, which are open or undefended,
cannot be attacked or bOmbarded."
Spain was participant in this confer
ence, the United States was not. This
law was again adopted in 1880 by the
committee of the institute of interna-
tional law which drew up the Oxford
CODE
1t will at once appear that if the
principle were universally acted upon
there would be no need of fortifying
our seacOast cities. Such measures
would simply invite bOmbardment.
The present prevalence of notifications,
however, points to universal distrust
of the observance of the doctrine.
In 1879, Chill, then at war with Peru,
bombarded Pisagua, without artillery,
Notifications, without any defense. In
the heat of conflict not much conf
dence can be placed upon the restrain
ing effect of the principle of the ex-
enption of unfortified towns from at
tack
