Republicans intend to push their
campaign into the heart of the enemy's
country. Ernest j. Magerstadt, Sam
Raymond and the other nominees on
the Republican ticket are sanguine of
success. They believe that the attempt
of the Democrats to make the "sick

failure, and 1t Is thought that the &C.

The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1898-08-05

The Journal has maintained for many
years that manifest destiny and the logic
of political evolution pointed to the ultimate
absorption of Cuba by the United States.
The geographical location of the island, its
strategic and commercial value to the
United States, the irresistible growth of the
republican idea, the moribund condition of
the Spanish power and the natural law by
which smaller bodies gravitate to larger
ones all pointed inevitably to this conclu-
sion. 1t has been so from the beginning, 1t
being only question of time when it would
come about. Jefferson saw it early in the
century. and it has been more and more
perceptble at intervals ever since. 1t is
palmer now than ever before, and plain,
too, that the United States have lost moth
ing by waiting. On the contrary, they have
gained greatly in the moral strength and
prestige of their position. If they had at
tempted to anticipate the evolution of events
by Selling Cuba thirty or forty years ago,
as many Americans desired, or if they had
forced quarrel with Spain in order to cap
ture the island, as some of our statesmen
favored doing. the moral sentiment of Chris
tendon would have been against them. A
war with Spain would have been a much
more serious affair for us then than 1t is
now, and if we had succeeded in capturing
the island we would have been universally
denounced as nation of filbusters and
land-robbers. and 1t would have been hard
TO escape that verdict in history The great
difference in the present case shows how
much we have gained by waiting. Now the
whole civilized world recognizes the deca-
dent condition of Spanish rule in
Cuba and the unreasonableness of
expecting the United States to per-
NIT such a nuisance and scandal to
continue longer at its very doors. 1t is uni
versally admitted that we have been very

THE SPANISH DELAY.

To those who understand something of the
situation, the reports that the Spanish Min
istry desires to delay the acceptance of
the Presidents terms of peace are not sur
prising. In the first place, the present re-
gime and the Ministry are in a most en-
barrassing position for the reason that there
is powerful faction in Spain favoring the
pretensions of Don Carlos to the throne. 1t
is probable that the Weyler element belongs
to this faction. The terms presented by the
President are made to appear very humil-
iating to a populace which has not yet
learned how complete is the discontinue of
Spain and whose lack of patriotism is made
up by what they cali Spanish honor To at
once accede to the terms of peace proposed
by the President would invite an outbreak
which might end in the overthrow of the
present dynasty and the hopes outside of
Spain as well as inside which are based
upon its continuance.
In the next place, the Spanish statesmen
are proverbially masters of that diplomacy
which is made up of delay, evasion and dis
cussion. They have always beaten us in
that field. Probably some of them imagine
they can gain something by the delay
necessary to discuss propositions. Possibly
they hope for European intercession If, for
instance, Spain could be granted year or
more in which to get its troops out of
Cuba, which would involve Spanish rule to
some extent while occupying Havana,
something would be gained. They would
like to discuss as an important point, the
removal to Spain of the heavy guns on the
two islands, the larger part of which are of
no value. All these points are raised for
the double purpose of making the ignorant
people of Spain believe that the United
States will make concessions to insure peace
and to obtain delay in the hope that some
thing may happen to their advantage.
The President has made the most favor
able terms that can be offered. If the Span
ish Ministry does not accept them now,
it or its successors, with Don Carlos as
King, will do so later on. AS for the war,
it will in the meantime be pushed with

WHY GARCIA WITHDREW.
He Desired to Cooperate with ROjas
in the Capture Of GiDara.

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-General T. Estrada
Palma the Cuban delegate, last night sup
plernented his statement of the day before
regarding the reported differences. between
Generals Shafter and Garcia. Il think,
said General Palma, that the principal
reason General Garcia Withdrew from San
tiago was because it was not necessary for
his to continue there with his troops after
the surrender of the city. His presence in
the interior was necessary TO operate
against the Spaniards holding Holguin,
Manzanillo and other towns. and TO CO.
operate with General Rojas who has occu-
pied the town of Glbara. This town has
the largest proportion of Spanish infablt-
ants of any town In the eastern part of the
island General Rojas entered the place,
established a government policed the place
and everything was peaceful when the ships
of the American navy arrived We all ac-
knowledge our debt of gratitude to- the
American people, and that TO them In the
end we will owe our freedom from the
Spanish yoke. The fact that General Garcia
is cooperating actively proves the faith lie
has in the American people. This fanh Is
shared by all Cubans. and we have no Goubt
that all the pledges they have made Will be
carried into effect We wait patiently, as
sured that when the time comes Cuba will
be turned over to us for a peaceful and

The advocates of sound money in the
United States have been able to draw some
strong arguments from the condition of
things in Mexico and Cuba and Porto Rico
will furnish more. The currency in both
islands is that of Spain. except the small
amount of American and English gold that
may have crept in through local trade The
Spanish currency consists of gold and sill
yer pesetas. and notes issued by the Bank
of Spain of the denominations of twenty
five, fifty, one hundred, five hundred and
to 20 cents ir American money. The capital
of the Bank of Spain is $50, OO.O00 pesetas,
and it's note issue is limited to $50, 600 600
pesetas, for which a minimum surplus re-
serve of 100000 pesetas must be main
tanned The notes are full legal tender, the
same as our greenbacks. The monetary
stock of Spain at the beginning of the
Cuban war was: Gold, 2OOOO 600 pesetas;
silver 705, 600 pesetas; subsidiary coin,
200OO0. 900 pesetas; uncovered notes, 43O 600 900
pesetas. From this ii will be seen that the
Spanish currency system is weighted down
with silver and inflated with paper-just
such a system as the Democratic party
wants to establish in this country. Spanish
coins are used in Cuba and Porto Rico, and
notes to limited extent. A press dispatch
from Ponce. published in the Journal yes
terday. said:
Mr.. p. c. Hanna, United States consul at
San Juan till war was declared with Spain,
is busy assisting in the adjustment of local
conditions to the new state of affairs. He
is endeavoring to establish American post
offices In all the important centers of the
occupied territory, and he has frequent in
tervieWs with merchants and bankers on
the question of money premium, an awk-
ward question that is giving the American
and local financiers much trouble. The sit
uation briefly. in this respect. is that, prior
TO the American occupation, the premium
on American and English gold over Porto
Rico silver has been from $1.20 to $1.75.
Spaniards, on leaving, took away all the
money they could find and this resulted in
an an abnormal scarcity Gripping the mer-
Porto Rican coin. The premium fell quick
ly to 100, and is now down to so.
From this it appears that there is no
trouble with Spanish gold coins because
gold is gold the world over. The trouble
is with Spanish silver. compared with which
American and English gold commands a
premium of from $1.2O to $1.75. though it has
fallen considerable since the occupation by
the Americans and the prospect of stable
government. The situation in Ponce will be
found to exist throughout Porto Rico and
it furnishes new proof of the irresistible
tendency of silver coins to find their COM
mercial level, unless bolstered up by arti-
fetal legislation as they are in the United
States at continual and ever increasing

HURRICANE In FLORIDA.
Storm That May Have PeriIed Some of
the BlOckaders i'm Cuban Waters.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Aug. 4.-Specials
to the Tfmes-Un and Citizen Indicate
that hurricane of unusual severity swept
the gulf coast of Florida yesterday. The
storm had all the characteristics of a gen.
uine West India cyclone. 1t was first re-
ported at Tampa on Tuesday, where 1t
grazed the coast, but caused sufficient wind
to detain steamers in this port. A wreck
ing barge in charge of c. E. Hardester
was sent adrift, and Mr.. Hardester, twenty
miles out in the bay deserted the barge and
took refuge on a beacon, where he remained
for forty hours without food or water. At
ApaIachicola the velocity of the wind
reached as high as eighty miles. Four tugs
and many small craft were sunk. Houses
were unroofed an6 almost every tree in the
town leveled, AT Chipley a negro church
and several other buildings were blown
down and thousands of acres of turpentine
forest leveled. At Tallahassee, st. Teresa
Mariana and Varyville considerable dam
age was done to houses, fences and to trees
as well as to corn and cotton. A deluge of
rain fell Telegraph wires all down in
East Florida and details are meager, but
so far as learned there were no casualties

The second day of the Republican state
convention fully verified the promise of the
first. The delegates were in their places
IN good season. The convention was ready
to approve the platform because it was an
enunciation of Republican views on the is
sues before the people concerning which
there is no difference of opinion. On the
money question the platform meets the is
sue as made by the Democratic platform
Not only is the Republican party of Indiana
ready TO meet the Bryan party on the is
sue of l6 to l, but, with the experience of
the past two years indicating the Repub-
lican claims of 1896, it can fight the 16-to-1
delusion with better weapons.
In an orderly manner the convention pro-
ceeded to the making of ticket. The
rivalry was never keener, because Repub-
licaps believe that nomination is equiva-
lent to an election. Union B. Hunt, of Win
chester, because of his support in every sec
ton of the State, received the nomination
for secretary of state. He is new man
in State affairs, but well-known Repub-
licans vouch for his fitness for the office.
The large vote by which William H. Hart
was nominated indicates the confidence of
the party in his fitness for one of the most
important offices in the State. Before he be-
came deputy auditor of state he was an
auditor of the treasury in Washington by
the appointment of General Harrison No
man in the State better understands the
duties of the Office. Leopold Levy, the can
didate for treasurer, has the reputation of
being careful and successful business
man. Rarely does so conspicuous recog-
milton of his professional ability come to a
man as did to William L. Taylor in the
nomination for attorney general by accla-
nation. Robert A. Brown is as we'll known
throughout the State as any of the younger
Republicans-a fact which makes his NOM
ination over two strong competitors a vote
OF confidence. Mr.. f. l.. Jones, the NOM
inee for superintendent of public instruction,
is one Of the most prominent of the younger
educational men in the State. Captain John
b. Conner is doing better work as state
statistician than has ever been done in the
office. The denomination of w. S. Blatchley
for state geologist insures that the work of
that office will be continued in competent
hands. The three candidates for the SUI
preme Court, Messrs Bowling, Hadley and
Baker, have the reputation of being ad-
mirably qualified for the exalted positions
for which they have been nominated.
AS whole, it is the generally expressed
opinion of the delegates and Republicans
attending the convention that the party has
never had better ticket than that which
was put in nomination yesterday.
