The Harder Task to Come.
From the Philadelphia Press


The assent of Spain to the American
terms of peace brings the United States to
much more difficult task than the prose-
cution of thu war.
The defeat of Spain by sea and land is
easy by the ''pacification of Cuba" and the
creation there of stable government. Our
own war took only four years. Reconstruct
ton took twelve. The war both sections
remember with just pride. Reconstruction
neither section snd neither party looks back
upon with pride or satisfaction. On both
sides there are few worse pages in Ameri-
can history.
Cuba offers a harder problem In recon-
struction than the south. For its arsa it
has had worse war. third of it's popu-
iation has starved to death. Another third
is near deaths door. For three years Span-
ish guerrillas and Cuban bushwha ckers have
been robbing, numbering and fighting No
security exists outside Of the bigger cities
Such government as has existed has been
utterly and iagitiously corrupt. Tammauy
is reasonably clean by the side of the Span
ish administration of the island. The Cuban
troops" and their leaders have hopes and
plans which look to seizing power without
reference to the rights of other parties
Such rights must be protected with every
due regard to men who have made the best
fight they could and utterly failed In estab-
fishing stable independence.
As the Spanish troops withdraw an army
of 10000 to $1,000 men will be needed to
preserve order in the cities and restore it
outside. Nothing but the most stringent
military rule will suppress bandit bands and
brigandage. Military governors must for
some time, probably several years, rule with
a strict hand. Their appointment must and
should be absolutely free from personal or
party bias and solely for the public good

Spain and the Future

They aie watching the negotiations for
peace with extreme solicitude in Paris
The Temps says:
1T is to be hoped the noble resignation
Of spain will touch the heart of President
Mckinley, and that he will consider it hon
orable to show that II the United States is
strong, II is great and magnanimous
not to abuse Its victory, and to desire, by
the generosity of its acts, to make the
treaty with the people they have learned
to respect on the battlefield a veritable
pact of friendship.
1T Is certain that Spain will be reward
ed for her wisdom. Freed from the Cuban
incubus, she VIII regain energy and vital
fty, and march with joyful steps toward a
calm and prosperous future
The President could only hope to meet
the desires and expectations Of the Temps,
and earn for the United States the credit
of being good and magnanimous" in the
eyes of the Temps, by yielding the point
as TO the Spanish bonds now saddled on
Cuba That he will not do. Sentiment
on that subject is as pronounced in the
United States as on the subject of freedom
for Cuba itself. 1t Is an undivided, in
divisible proposition, indeed Cuba would
not be free if still charged with the hun
dreds of millions spent by Spain in laying
the island waste and butchering and starry
ing its people. The scheme is not only
preposterous from a business standpoint,
but repugnant to the plain instincts of
humanity.
The Temps sees a glorious future for
Spain when she is freed frcm the Cuban
incubus" This would imply that Cuba has
dragged Spain down. The very opposite
is true Spain has dragged Cuba down.
The trouble has all been rooted in Spain.
Spanish incapacity for government, Span
ish corruption in Office Spanish waste and
backwardness, explain all of Spain's diff
culties in Cuba And the same qualities
have been exhibited in all of her other
colonies, and in the peninsula. Spain must
be freed from the incubus of her char
acteristics. She must be born again-be-
fore she may be expected to WELD any
power or enjoy any prosperity again.
Cuba did not develop nor give sole en-
ployment to Spain's bad qualities, and so
these qualities will not disappear when
Cuba is free. Lucky 1t will be for Spain
and her creditors if. indeed. her qualities
do not gather in force and destructiyeness
by having the sphere of their activity con-
fined TO the peninsula.
But If it is possible for Spain to be born
again-for the leopard to change its spots
and the Ethiopian his skin-the United
States Will rejoice.

Gradually the truth is struggling TO the
surface trorn the mass Of charges and
counter-charges growing out of the scan
calous conditions at Santiago in the matter
OF the maintenance and rursing of the
American army. The responsibility is row
being banded about from bureau to bureau
and from officer 10 officer. DR.. Munson's 8
report throws more light on the state of
the case than has any previous document
emanating from either end of the line
Washington or Santiago. He shows first
that there was not a sufficient amount of
attention paid by those high in command
to the details of getting the supplies off the
transports. and next that the transports
themselves were badly managed. doubtless
because of their anomalous relation to the
army. The lack of discipline on board
seems to have been the cause of much of
the friction and suffering. But the rela-
tions between the transports and the army
were deplOrable. There seemed TO be no
connecting Ink. Everything went as 1t
might. without order or system. There was
apparently a great abundance of material,
both for the feeding and for the nursing of
tie men, but the problem was to get at it.
This experience combines with others TO
demonstrate the republics lack Of organi-
Eation In the essentials Of warfare. The

president Mckinley.

The London Spectator in some remarks
highly apprecIative Of President Mckinley
and his conduct of the war, says:
Without training in military business. or
experience in diplomacy, or habitude IN man
aging great affairs he was suddenly caAieo
on to conduct a serious war which ne only
half approved, to create the necessary
forces and TO take resolutions certain to
rouse the jealousy of half the great powers
of Europe"
As opposed to this, the American idea is
that Mr. Mckinney was excellently well
qualified by experience for his task, and
that that explains his very signal success.
a. Without training in military busi-
ness" When Gibbon, after the completion
of his great work was asked how a civilian
had succeeded in mastering so completely
all the military features of his subject, he
explained that when young man he had
served as an officer of militia THE major
of the Hampshire militia" he said, was
of great assistance to the historian of the
Roman empire" Mr.. Mckinley served as
a soldier through the civil war. That was
a great conflict, extending over four years.
No man of observation could have gone
through II even in subordinate capacity
without acquiring considerable knowledge
of war and what war calls for. The major
of the Ohio volunteers has undoubtedly
been of valuable assistance to the President
of the United States in this war with Spain.
% ''Or experience in diplomacy" Ameri-
can diplomacy bears no likeness to Euro
pean diplomacy. 1t is not matter of
finesse, or expert and elaborate phrase
making. Mr.. Mckinley, according to the
American standard, is the ideal diplomat.
He has frankness and truth, good temper
and clear head.
90 "Or habitude in managing great af-
fairs He had managed some pretty con-
siderable affairs. and very successfully, be-
fore he became President of the United
States. His leadership of the House ma
JOrity in the Fifty-first Congress showed
powers of large grasp. His revision of the
tariff and his conduct OF the new measure
through stormy House bespoke both the
political leader and the diplomat. After
that he served two terms as the governor
of his state-a post OF responsibility. and
calling for capacity and sound Judgment.
The London Spectator halls a man sud-
denly developed into a leader equal to big
enterprises. The truth Is that President
Mckinley came to his office admirably
equipped for all Of it's duties and that he
has met trying emergency precisely as
his friends and supporters have predicted
from the day that 1t arose. He is product
OF American institutions and training and
no surprise at all at home

An Echo From the Boureowne.

The suggestion is now made by some who
have gone carefully over the facts so far
obtainable that If rescue steamer had
been promptly sent to the scene of the
Bourgogne disaster several additional lives
might have been saved. 1t seems that
there Is evidence that those whose bodies
have been recovered from the sea lived
some days after the collision. finally dying
from starvation and exhaustion. The ship
must have thrown up from the sea a great
amount of miscellaneous debris upon which
the people who CHANGED to escape from the
vessel as she sank could have clung. 1t is
known that many Were on the decks at

Secretary Longs Defense of Sampso,

Fair minded readers cannot avoid the
conclusion that in his letter to an un-
named correspondent who had volunteered
criticism of Admiral Sampson Secretary
Long has administered well deserved re-
buke to the whole coterie of critics who
have made far more out of the controversy
over the naval battle of July than the
facts IN any wise warrant. The Secretary's
letter is indeed admirable bit of compo-
sition. when all the embarrassing circunn-
stances of the situation are recalled He
was under nc obligation, personal or off,
admiral. Yet his patience was tried, his
sense of justice was outraged, when these
communications came to him, unasked, un-
warranted, unfOunded condemnine the
commander of the naval forces in the
evidence and the prejudiced comments of
miscellaneous critics.
The Secretary's letter is both strong and
tactful 1t meets the charges point for
point. adducing facts to show that what
the writer of the scolding letter alleged
against Sampson was unjust and untrue.
But in defending Sampson the Secretary
wisely avoids detracting from the credit of
any other officer. He does not unfuly
praise the admiral at the expense of his
fellow commanders, but pleads for fair
play,
Secretary Long may not wholly silence the
trouble-makers. but he has shown that in
the estimation of his superior officers Ad-
niral Sampson stands completely acquitted
OF the charges of meanness and littleness
that have been brought against him.

cases boats were filled with passengers for
whom no helping hand was extended when
the time came to cast off. So it is not i'm
probable that there were many persons in
the sea after the ship disappeared. Indeed,
the accounts tell of dozens who were
beaten away from RATS and boats The
collision occurred SO near the coast that
search for the living as well as for the
dead could have been begun within few
hours after the arrival of the Cromarty-
shire with the appalling news. Many fea-
lures of this disaster mark it as one OF
the worst in modern times, both in the loss
Of life and in the mismanagement dis
played.

Hawaii Likes the Commission,
From the Honolulu Commercial Advertiser
Lnl

FIcm the Honolulu Commercial Advertiser.
If Hawaii had selected the committee
themselves they could not have selected
three men better qualified for the task or
more friendly inclined toward Hawaii than
the American members Of the commission.
AS to the Hawaiian members, nothing
could be more fitting and gratifying than
the appointment of President Dole; and
the Hawaiian bar possesses no ADLER rep
resentative than Judge Frear.
The membership and character of the
commission is an index and an earnest of
the extreme friendship Of President Nc
Kiniey for Hawaii, and of the liberal spirit
in which the adjustment of the details of
the new government will be approached
