The Governor of Virginia did
the right thug when he decid d
to turn the negro troops from that
state over to the Federal govern
ment with their own officers. This
was in marked contrast to the
action of those governors who
appointed white officers for the
negro troops. Suppose some
governor had appointed negro
officers to command white troops,
what a howl would have gone up.

,says, Senator Eiklns, ..,and w. Want IL
now.,,
Washington dispatch to The New York
World: Senator Stephen B. Elkins
made the following statements to-nlght:
"War seems inevitable. and we want
1t now; We want It in a hurry. This
seems decided, and Twill not discuss 1t.
Some people. I fear. want tho war de-
clarod before Spain sues for peace.
Il oppose recognition OF the insur-
gents In Cuba<for. q number, OF reasons.
First, they have not won their indie
pendence. To do SO would be contrary
to the American doctrine for a hundred
years, q. dangerous precedent.
We Will defeat Spain, and quickly.
WelNow the result now. We can pay
the cost of the war. But the doctrine
may In the centuries to come involve US
in many wars and endanger the exist
ence OF our government and cost US
thousands Of millions.
According To international law and
precedents on this subject, from the
standpoint OF success on the part Of the
insurgents, battles fought, territory
occupied, government established, hold
Ing courts, having a capital and con-
gress. the insurgents are not entitled to
recognition. Under the American doc
trine always adhered to there Is no war
rant for recognizing the independence
OF Cuba. 20,
.'In our civil war the II Confederate
armies had possession of one-third OF
the republic; the Confederate states
had a capital, a congress that held reg
ular sessions an organized government,
issued money, carried on trade and
commerce, had ships and o. navy; state,
legislatures were In session, courts were
held; the south had armies that fought
great battles and were equal to any the
world has ever seen. The Confederate
states continued the struggle for indie
pendence, for four years as no other
people ever did, appealing 10 European
nations for recognition, which was con-
startly resisted by our government on
the ground that:'t was a domestic In
surrection. concerning only the United
States and its citizens and interference
would be cause Of war.
The Cuban struggle furnishes no
such example; the Cubans have 10 such
claims for recognition.
s"Take the case or the United States;
We were not recognized by the nations
of the world until the armies. OF Bur-
goync and CORVALLIS had surrendered
and every English soldier on the soil OF
the United States was a prisoner. Rec
ognitioI came only after these things
were accomplished.
Spain can't carry on war against us.
Spain cannot make any substantial war
SO farfromhome and SO. near our shores.
Spain knows this. and, In my opinion,
will submit TO our demands"

Judge receiving q, grand jury's report
one evening during the political. cam
paisn OF 1896 could distinctly hear some
fervlt cloquence OF a political orator in
an adjacent room. He looked over the
indictments returned, and then, as his
face assumed an angry look, he said:

Ab,ut Privateering.

The New York World has been any
thins but conservative. and has been an
extremist. on the subjec, OF war but
ohce.in a while 1t .drups into a sane
mood. In one OF these moments It has
word to say on the subject OF privateer-
ing. 1t calls attention to the fact that
by the declaration OF Paris in 1856 pri-
watering was abolished among the ma
tions signing the declaration, but that
the sisners did not include the United
States and Spain. The World con-
tinues:
It was practically abolished among
other, nations by the substitution OF
steam for sailing vessels III war. It will
be completely abolished II the sigma
tories OF the declaration OF Paris Join
with Great Britain In making Coal con-
traband OF war.
This IS a movement which should meet
with our approval now. We have no de-
sire to prey on Spanish commerce, TO
seize the property OF Spanish merchants
or to interfere in any way with non
combatants. We should not only repu-
dlate the principle Of priratcering,
though It Is recognized In our. conetitu-
ton. but should serve notice that we
shall regard II as piracy.
This suggestion may, not be popular
with great many, but tits a principle
which appeals to the sense OF Justice Of
the American people in general. I. Is
not probable that they would advocate
a policy OF making war upon non-com-
batants. though in times Of war such
measures have been resorted to rs an
effective factor. The nations OF Europe
having practically abolished this method
of warfare, however the United States
should not be behind them on progress
sive lines.

The President's position that the
whole people of Cuba should be permit
ted TO decide their form Of government
after Spain is driven out, and that the
present government, provisional in its
nature, and practically controlled by a
faction, should not be recognized by this
government, is logical. The President
holds TINT recognition OF independence
Is an executive act and not a legislative
duty. This was the point OF difference be.
tween the senate and house which was
OF the most importance. The action of
the senate In denying the President his
'prcrosatlve was unprecedented.
