one might realize that the Spanish mobs
in Havana, hearing that the President had
declared for Intervention, would regard such
declaration as one of actual war. Consul
General Lee. who knows the sort of people
the Spanish of Havana are, foresaw that
the excited and bloodthirsty mobs would
deem a declaration of war the signal to kill
as many citizens of the United States as
they could AS there are two thousand such
citizens it must be seen that the consul
general acted wisely and humanely in sug-
costing the postponement of a message that
would be accepted as an actual declaration
of war until he had time to get those peo-
pie out of the city. To ship two thousand
people with their effects must require sew
eral steamships and some time. If the con-
sui general had not notified the President
of the danger he would have been unmind-
fui of his trust and if the President had
not needed his suggestion he would have
been guilty of turning American citizens
over to outrage and their houses and stores
to pillage Had he sent his message to
Congress and fifty or hundred American
citizens been killed in consequence, the same
element in that body that berates him for
Withholding his message would now be pass

No one can question the patriotism of Gu
ban leaders like Gomez. They have dis
played great power of endurance and high
courage. For such men there is always adj
miration and sympathy. For the men who
have been fighting for Cuban independence
in New York and about Washington no one
can have much respect. There may be good
men among them, but they are in bad COM
pany. The most of them are merely adj
venturers who live off of the contributions
to the Cuban cause. 1t will be a sorry day
for the people of Cuba should these men
get control on that island. Their victims
would pray for the restoration of the Span
ish regime as a relief

badly smashed The remains of the man

INTERVENTION OR INDEPENDENCE.

There appear to be three distinct opin-
ions in official circles in Washington with
reference to the policy to be pursued by
the United States. The President is said to
hold to the theory of intervention without
recognizing the independence of the republic
of Cuba. Another element thinks that in
PREVENTION should be accompanied by rec
ognition of the independence of Cuba. A
third clement, which is said to include most
of the Democrats in the House, will insist
upon the recognition of Cuba, but will OPP
pose intervention.
Intervention would be a movement to in
sure tranquility on the island. The argu-
ment in favor OF that line of action is prob
ably designed to prevent it being made to
appear that in compelling a cessation of
turbulence we are siding with either party,
leaving that to be settled by the combatants
when they can no longer harass each other
Those who favor this plan have yet to make
it clear how intervention will rid Cuba of
the Spanish, which is the real purpose of
the people of this country
The mere recognition of the independence
of the republic of Cuba is open to the charge
of inadequacy. 1t is a mere declaration and
nothing more. AS before asserted, it can
not give the Cubans a regiment. 1t affords
them the right to purchase articles contra
band of war and ship them to Cuba, but
the Cubans have no ports which such ships
can enter. In short, recognition would not
help Cuba. The Spanish troops would re-
main to play war in Cuba, and the insur-
gents would continue to harass them, while
the reconcentrados would be left to starve
1t is do-nothing policy, and those who are
advocating it should not clamor for early
action.
What the people of this country desire is
that Spain withdraw from Cuba. It's mis-
rule for a century is ample justification for
compelling it to do so. Great Britain says
as much. The destruction of the war ship
Maine in a Cuban port by an internal ma
chine which Spanish officials put in position
gives us additional reason to demand that
Spain leave our vicinity. In fact now that
there can be no doubt of the completely of
Spanish officials in the destruction of the
Maine, that of itself is sufficient justifica-
ton tina we compel Spain to leave our
neighborhood. If Spain will do this within
a reasonable period without resort to force
it will be better than to have war, but if
force shall be necessary there should be no
hesitation in resorting to it. 1t is wise.
however, to exhaust peaceful remedies be-
fore resorting to war

The yellow newspapers may continue to
print infamous lies charging corruption and
dishonesty against those in high place. and
the men in Congress who favor war for
wars sake may echo these charges, but
they will not succeed in convincing the
clear-headed, sober-mnded men of the
country that these things true. These
clear-headed and sober-mnded men feel
perfectly sure that out of the present tur-
moil will come either honorable peace with
out war or a justihable war followed by
honorable peace. The Nation will gladly
accept the first, and if it has to accept the
second it will do so with firmness and forth
tude.

ing sensations will give out. it is anxious
to have it done at once. If the two thou
sand American citizens in Havana and vi
entity are murdered by mobs melted by the
Presidents message, all the better for the
yellow papers. 1t would afford more SAT-
from, and saffron is all they care for. The
yellow demagogue in Congress is simply
anxious to make the people believe that the
administration is corrupt; that for an inn
would barter the honor of the Nation. The
yellow newspaper is knave but the yell

The talk of an armistice in Cuba is
puerile. The Spanish and autonomist gov

if thereby they could gain time, and it
would be greatly to their advantage to sus-

about to begin. But who shall speak for the
insurgents, or who imagines that they
would consent to an entire suspension of
