MARK HAN Ma
sExplains' His Interview in Which
He Said Things he Now Doesn't
Mean.

Cleveland, o., November 17.-Sena-
tor Hanna was asked to-day by the AS
ISOLATED Press correspondent it he de-
sired to make any statement in regard
to the recent interview which had been
given to the public as coming from
him. He replied that he had not seen
the Associated Press interview until
yesterday, but had seen copies OF re-
marks upon it which were a cause OF
wonderment to him. 'The article
named seems to have been taken from
a chat I had with representative OF a
local paper who asked my opinion on
the recent election, then drifted into a
questioning as to the outcome of the
war, taxes, ETC., and not expecting to
be quoted, we talked about the POSSIBLE
tiles of the various sources of revenue.
AS my meaning was evidently misun-
derstood in reference to the question
under discussion and | was misquoted,
| now state that | consider the Dingley
Lii the most scientific and best ADJUST
ed tariff bill that was ever enacted;
that / would be the last person to dis
turb it's operation; that believe it will
bring a larger revenue to the country
than was claimed for it, and will re-
main in force for many years, and be
changed only by the Republican party
when the requirements of the country
demand it. AS to the war tax, | be-
lieve that some features of it will re-
main as a means of revenue to provide
for natural increased expenses of the
government and contingencies. | did
state and now repeat that owing to
the benefits of the protective tariff our
manufacturing industries have reached
the point where for the first time in
the history of the country our exports
of manufactured goods have exceeded
our imports. That is what we have
always claimed would be the outcome
of the protective policy, at the same
time maintaining our standard of
wages. THIS means reduction of
revenue from imports, and unless made
good from increased volume of bust
ness, must be supplied from other
sources, and I suggested the tea and
coffee tax which can be made, in my
opinion, a source of revenue (when re-
quired) without any great hardship to
consumers. do not care to enter into
any newspaper discussion, and per-
haps did not make my meaning clear
to my friend, the reporter. 1 certainly
was not debating a public interview,
and would not say this much only to
correct what seems to have been a mis-
understanding. l am protectionist in
principle and have grown stronger in
the belief from object lessons which
are multiplying every year."

WILL YIELD
Spanish Commissioners Will Make an
Ineffective Protest, but Will Ac-
cept American Terms.

Madrid, November 17.-Almost all
the papers deprecate the dilatory pro-
ceedings at Paris, expressing their be-
lief that the United States will decline
arbitration and urging the govern
ment to yield quickly since it is impos-
sible for Spain to renew the struggle
or to expect European assistance and
furthermore because it would be bet
ter to cease wasting money and to
concentrate attention upon SPANS
domestic affairs and the restoration of
her finances.
London, November 19.-All the spe-
cial dispatches to the London papers
this morning from Paris express the
belief that the Spanish commissioners
will finally yield, though under pro-
test to the American demands.

JacksOn's Way and Another Way

From the New York World.
There are manly and resolute ways of
dealing with treachery and wrong. There
are unmanly and irresolute ways.
The Maine was treacherously blown up
by mine for which Spain is clearly re-
sponsible, but for which Spain has offered
no apology and expressed no regret.
The manly and resolute way of dealing
with that incident was pointed out in the
World last Sunday by the ambassador of
one of the greatest powers of Europe.
This is what he said
If one of my country's warships had met her
fate in European harbor in similar circum.
stances my government would have pursued an
entirely different course. The commander of the
port would have been required to show clean
hands. Every engine of destruction that was
under his supervision would have to be accounted
for

ports the master of the port would be djspraced

of its sorrow but would have courageously hum

This apology would be just as ample as that made
by a pure and upright gentleman tor the dishon
orable conduct of one of his disloyal sons or
servants.

The Cuban Bond Syndicate.

The goldbug end OF the Republican
party is fighting for its very existence as
shown by the desperate struggle in the
House on Monday against the Senate
Cuban resolutions. The Mckinley
Hanna-Reed s, Co. part of the party see
that if they are turned down the country
will be made aware of their falling
fortunes.
Their opposition to the recognition of
Cuban independence is for the purpose of
making our intervention appear in the
light of a conqest. If Cuba's independ-
ence is acknowledged, then the govern
ment of Cuba becomes responsible, and
not the United States. for obligations of
Spain that rest upon the island. The
Cubans having achieved their independ-
ence by force of arms, would not assume
any of SPANS debts incurred in efforts to
subdue them. But if the United States
drives Spanish authority out of Cuba and
their being no acknowledged government,
the United States stands in the relation
vi a anu ONuCI vi conquered
territory and must assume all obligations
resting on the territory, as the purchaser
of mortgaged property assumes the
payment of the mortgage.
This is the secret of the Mckinley
Hanna-Reed & Co. combination, which
represents the power and life of the organ
lied Republican party. The goldbug
bond syndicate element, with the Roths-
childs at its head would claim that the
United States, having conquered and
captured this mortgaged island from
Spain, were bound for the payment of the
500. 600, 900 bonds they held OH it. If an
independent government exists the United
States can in no way be considered
responsible for the mortgage resting on
territory they do not own.
This difference of intervention with
independence and intervention minus
independence which seems to lay people
to be without distinction is play of the
bond syndieate's to get some kind o.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1898-04-22

One Of the most repeated assertions OF
the Mckinley goldite press is that Spain
has steadily given up one point after
another, pressed back by Mr.. Mckinley,
when the fact is Spain has not retreated
an inch before McKinley's demands. He
has made no demands except to feed the
starved Cubans, and Spain refused tc
allow the donations sent by the people Of
this country to be distributed without
interfering, and finally drove the Red
Cross agents and all Americans out o.
Cuba by threats of assassination. All
that Spain has retreated before is the
soldiers of Gomez, not from McKinley's
steady pressure as the goldites keeT
reiterating.

Though clothed in different garments

was considered a clincher. Today the
same kind of argument, or rather conten'
ton, is one of the stock phrases. would
Won go to the front in case of war u
That is considered poser by the goldbug.

War!

The President signed the reso
lutions of congress and the notice te
Spain on Wednesday, giving the
Spanish government till Saturday tc
withdraw her army and navy from Cuba
Polo y Bernabe, the Spanish Minister
demanded his passports and they were
handed him promptly and in four hours
after he started for Canada. Minister
Woodford presented the ultimatum to the
Spanish government and got his walking
papers, and all will be ready after three
days-the time given Spain to reply. The
navy will then proceed to blockade
Havana and Matanzes, and an army with
provisions to feed the staving people
moved to Cuba and compel the Spanish
army on the island to surrender, which
they soon will, and those half starved
soldiers fed also. This is about the pro-
gram for next week.
