The Cubans at Santiago.

1t is suggested in some of the correspond
ence from Santiago that if the American
people had enjoyed fuller information about
the insurgents they would not have given
them their sympathieS so completely in
their revolt against Spain. The American
people, 1t is safe to say. are not going to
plead the baby act in this matter. At the
time they were declaring them worthy of
independence they had very clear idea of
the kind of men who had taken the field in
Cuba to fight for freedom. They knew
their history, their antecedents and all
that had operated to make them fierce hat
and impatient of restraint. They have
not been gulled. They did not expect Gen.
eral Garcia to present himself in General
Skaters camp with troops thoroughly
drilled and equipped and ready for the
most effective cooperation with the United
States forces. They knew that to be i'm
possible.
The insurgents are not saints. They are
precisely what years of Spanish oppression
have made them. Spain is responsible for
every Objectionable quality they possess.
But their merit is that at last they had the
courage to rebel, and to seek to establish
by force better order of things. 1t was
that which attracted the attention and won
the sympathy of the people OF the United
States, and it is that which gives assurance
that when Spanish power-justly so hate
full in their eyes-is destroyed In Cuba, and
the men who have been enforcing Spanish
edicts there return to Spain, they will, un-
der American tutelage and encouragement,
readily adapt themselves to the building up
of the island under the improved condi-
tions
Disparaging remarks are made about the
appearance of the rank and file of the in
surgents. After three years of bush fight
ing in the mountains and swamps of east
ern Cuba, on starvation ratiOns and against
a powerful foe. would any men be present
able to the eye? And if some of General
Garcias men manifested a desire to enter
Santiago for loot was that in any measure
different from the disposition of the Span
ish soldiers who actually did loot the town
before the Americans entered?
The Cubans are entitled to fair play and
a just Judgment The American people are
not going to condemn them first close
acquaintance in circumstances calculated
to show them to least advantage. They
are much better men than those who have
been prosecuting them, and more to be de-
sired as neighbors and friends.

The Porto Rico Campaign.

United States troops are now en- route 70
Porto Rico, and If reasonable expectations
are realized that island within few weeks
will be under American control. This cam
paign differs from the Cuban campaign in
that 1t is distinctly in the interests Of ter
ritorial expansion. To drive Spain out of
Cuba and leave her with all of her per-
nIeious Influences still in possession Of
Porto Rico would. it is now generally rec
ognized. De a serious mistake Hence, tie
purpose to drive her away from this side
of the Atlantic altogether. so that when
the flag goes up over Porto Rico the un-
Outstanding is that 1t will remain up. and
steps will be taken to establish permanent
American government there. The island
possesses great strategic value. and the
United States in pursuance of its purposes
will be much the richer for possessing il.
The ''anti-imperiaIist'' may be expected
row to enlarge upon his theme. Porto
Rico affords him good text, and IL he
knows his business he ought to be able to
create quite a little stir among those who.
like himself fear that the country is head
irg for smash.
Mr. Justice Brewer of the Supreme Court,
in an interview at Milwaukee yesterday.
expressed himself on the subject from the
anti-imperialist standpoint. He spoke of
Cuba. the Philippines and of Porto Rico.
but his observations. without misiudging
him at all. can be applied to any of the
three colonies singly. He said therefore
with respect to Porto Rico that the United
States can only hope to hold 1t by force.
and that such government Is repugnant to
American professions and traditions.
Does not Judge Brewer err in this? Porto
Rico will be taken by force. but does that
argue that force will be necessary always
to hold It? We shall not even take It from
the Porto Ricans by force but from Span
fsh soldiers from the peninsula. without
personal stake in the island. and who are
there merely to fight under orders from
Madrid But when the island comes under
American control and begins to feel the in
fiuence of American government, are not
the people likely, certain. indeed, to ap-
prove of and greatly benefit by the change?
Shall they feel any other force than that
necessary to lift them out OF an old and a
foul rut up to a plape of good local govern
n'ent and progress? 1t belittles the United
States 10 say that 1t cannot hold Porto
Rico except by force.
There are fewer difficulties involved in
the American acquisition of Porto Rico
than must be confronted in the case of

Hawaii's Flag.

On the last day of the recent session of
the Hawaiian legislature an effort was
made to secure the passage of a resolution
expressive of the desire of Hawaii that the
national flag and great seal be preserved
after annexation by the United States The
lower house passed the resolution, but 1t
was tabled in the senate, IL to 1. 1t was
recognized that such an enactment would
have no other effect than as a request and
that in its disposition of the affairs of Ha-
wall the United States would in no wise be
compelled 10 regard it further than as SEN
timent and politeness might suggest The
action of the senate of course puts an end
to the agitation regards legislative in
itiative, yet the question may yet arise in
connection with the adjustment of the af-
falrs OF the two republics in the act of
union. The Hawaiian flag is combination
of the British and American The body
OF the ensign is composed of red, white
and blue stripes. arranged in that order
from the bottom upward, three of each but
the blue, of which there are two. The field
Is reproduction of the BRUSH Union Jack,
and thus the dominant elements in the for
eign population of the islands are repre-
sented in the flag. When Hawaii Is taken
into the body polite of this union this flag
ceases to exist an Independent emblem
of International status and the flag of the
islands will be the stars and stripes. States

lola In Exile.

Emile Zola's fight 20 Switzerland to es-
cape punishment for libel puts a new phase
upon this most interesting and rapidly COM
picating case. He stands convicted Of
libel, after a second trial, and is sentenced
to pay heavy fine and 10 be imprisoned
for one year. He evades both items by
going to LuZerne, which Is a traditional
refuge for offenders of all sorts. There is
no likelihood of extradition, as the laws
of Switzerland do not permit the return of
criminals - the land of their conviction
save for certain exceptional offenses, ap-
parently not including that of libel lola
is not political fugitive in the strict sense
of the word, for he was charged with Ii
beling the members of court-martlal and
thus the action was in broad sense per-
sonal and not governmental, despite the
fact that the ministry was primarily inter-
ested in securing his conviction. 1t now re-
mains for the stability of French resent
ment to determine the length of this dis
tinguished authors exile. Frances tickle
ness may display itself anew in a reaction
toward lola, which has been threatened
now and again at various stages of a prose-
cution which closely resembles persecution
in foreign eyes. But thus far the govern
ment has managed to preserve it's hold on
the sympathies of the people Zola may
be expected to maintain from his refuge a
Characteristic campaign in behalf of Drey-
fus. Indeed, his present immunity from ar
rest may lead him to even more determined

washington's Wartime Pro.,sr,.x

The interviews with Washington's renre-
sentative business men that are being pub-
hshed from day to day in The Star reflect
q gratifying state of local trade. Wash
ington is evidently enjoying summer of
exceptional prosperity. The reasons are
Narlously estimated. Some dealers believe
that the war is the prime cause. stimulat-
Ing certain branches of trade directly and
others indirectly as result of the extra
oidinary circulation of money spent In
military equipments. Others believe that
the war operates to attract an unusual
number of people to Washington at this
season, to observe the conduct of the cam
paign at headquarters to attend TO per-
sSnal affairs and for other reasons Yet
again other merchants think that this sea-
son Of good times results from general
conditions, brought about by the rejection
OF the free coinage propositions of the
democrats and the populsts and the grad
uai revival of industry and trade under the
operations of the Dingiey tariff law
Others again believe that this upward ten
dency is the logical consequence of re-
action from the depression of a few years
ago Whatever the causes 1t is plain that
Washington's midsummer of 1888 is by no
means the commercial calm that the hot
season is usually considered by trade More
people are In employment, more are con-
seouently buying. there is therefore more
money In circulation. These prime condi-
uons always reflect success in business and
IN consideration of the extraordinary fac
tors now operating 1t is not strange that
the capital city should enjoy its season of
prosperity. The continued success of the
American arms on land and sea may be
regarded as one OF the .chef elements in
the case These victories overcome the
natural handicap of war on trade neutral
izing the apprehensions of all buyers and
compensating for the shutting off in large
measure of the foreign ports that afford
such rich harvest to shippers in peaceful
times.

a harmonious basis, and it remains with
the courts to interpret the law and carry
it into effect as far as the companies in
volved MAJ desire, and as the public inter-
ests demand. Thus far these laws have
been dead letter, no company caring to
claim the privileges bestowed. In the case
now in court there was some question at
one time as to whether the two roads in
question :ntersected or connected in ac-
cordance with the terms of the statutes,
hut recen@ improvements on the part of the
Metropolitan set these doubts at rest. In
other cases it would doubtless remain for
the court to decide as to what constitutes
the connection or intersection of two lines.
What the Washington people are anxious
to know is whether by the future local
policy the suburban cars will be permitted
to be run into the heart of the city or are
to be kept at the end of their respective
lines, while their passengers are compelled
to pay additional fares to reach their city
destinations. The laws cited are obviously
intended 10 avoid this latter alternative.
If the suburban cars are admitted in
large numbers to the city tracks the prob
lem will be to avoid the evil of serious con-
gestion of travel on the tracks, while car
ing adequately for the interests of the su-
burban Do sSengers, who should not be put
to the bu den of extra fares, and perhaps
not to IT, of free transfers. though the
latter syst en- offers some obvious advanta-
ges. The pending case attracts the close
attention of those who hope to see Wash
ington continue along the path of progress
toward an ideal rapid transit system that
will meet all demands with minimum of

Fear of Yellow Fever Exaggerated.
From the New Orleans Times- D, moe at.

Twenty years ago had the people of the
south been polled to the destructive and
deadly power of yellow fever and of ty-
phoid fever, they were then, yellow
fever would have been almost unanimously
voted much the more destructive and
deadly disease of the two. Today the vote
would be the other way 1t must be OBJ
served that We are not comparing the yell
low fever as it was twenty years ago with
typhoid fever in respect of their killing
ability; it is the so-called yellow fever as
we saw it and heard of it in these parts
last year and this year that We are COM
pairing with typhoid fever in their lethal
capacity. And we have no hesitation in
saying that the so-called yellow fever of
last year and this year does not begin to
compete with typhoid fever in swelling the
death rate.
The attack of typhoid fever which is now
affecting the camp at Chickanauga is
justly far more dreaded than the outbreak
OF so-called yellow fever among the Ameri-
can and Spanish troops at Santiago, and Is
certain to make greater additions to the
mortality.
