herself a good fighter. She is now at
Rio, 1000 miles past the point where a
Spanish torpedo boat has been lying.
presumably in wait for her. and is in no
further danger unless a spanish squad
ron may have gone down that way to
intercept her. There is some reason to
think that the fleet which left the Cape
Verde islands on Friday is on that
errand; but if so, the Oregon will have
time to get away from Rio before it
can reach that vicinity and. at any
rate, her captain now knows that war
has been declared and will not be
caught mapping. The ship made good
speed for a long voyage. having
travelled all the way from Callao to Rio
at the average rate of IL miles an hour,
including a stop for coal at Punta

she can join Admiral SIMPSONS fleet

A Comparison Not Odious.
(Detroit JOurnal.)

The sagacity and farsightedness of
the President are acknowledged now by
the very ones who few days ago were
imputing to him unworthy motives and
maligning his patriotism without stint
or reason. He has proved to them and
to the world that an American Presi-
dent is above the sordid rabble of self
seekers and professional patriots whose
right to distinction, if they have any,
lies in their lung power and who think.
if they do think, with their organs of
hate and envy.

From SPANS Point Of View.

IF the people of this country are
worried and excited by the present war
with Spain there is at least a little
consolation in the thought that the
dons, penned up in Havana and Manila,
and their mother country across the
Atlantic have harder problem to solve
| than the one Uncle Sam is studying.
War, even under the most advan
tageous conditions, is not an alluring
game. as this country knows, and when
is can mean nothing more than hope
tainty of defeat ahead, the sooner the
loser drops out of it the better.
Judging by the great joy and en-
| thusasm which is everywhere manifest
in this country, because Admiral
Dewey's fleet has completely crushed
the Spanish squadron in the Philip
pines, what must be the feeling of the
Spanish people to whom this defeat IS
so overwhelming and momentous? If
the Americans are worried because the
fleet at the Cape Verde islands has
sailed at last, and it's destination is un-
known, what must be the feelings of
the SpaniardS who are bringing thai
tlotilla across the Atlantic to meet GER
tain defeat and perhaps total destruc
ton as at Manila? If this nation has
any misgivings concerning the in
evitable conflict ahead what must be
the feelings of Spain when she realizes
that she has neither men, nor money,
nor credit, nor a formidable navy, and
must go thousands of miles away from
home to fight a nation whose numeri-
cal. financial and material resources
are practically limitless?
Viewed from any standpoint war is
not a pleasing prospect; but let us not
believe for moment that we Ameri
cans just at present have a monopoly
of the doubts and fears and worriments
of this crisis. Spain has troubles of her
own rather more real than those of the
panicky and unreasoning people of the
shore cities who worry day and night
over the ridiculous bugaboo of an at
tack on our coast.
