The military and naval campaign against
spaif which seems TO be proceeding satlsfac-
torily. is not the only one, nor the only impor-
tant one To be waged BY Americans this year.
There are political campaigns In various States
for State officers, and for members Of Legis-
Iatures who will elect United States Senators.
and a general campaign all over the country
for members OF a new House Of Representatives
The first gun in these campaigns. to use the
hackneyed phrase, was fired last week In Ore
gon, and people Of The Tribune's political per-
suasion think the result showed the State
worthy Of the warshp named after her. The
big volleys OF the campaign will not come until

NO REASON FOR INPATIENCE.

1t Is natural that the causes Of delay in Army
operations are not fully understood by the pub
lie. 1t IS only day or two since Washington
dispatches announced that steps had been taken
by the President to prevent further delays
through msmanagement, and while the halt
ing Of the expedition for Santiago appears to
some Of questionable wisdom 1t is explained
as a precautionary measure. Yet others ask,
II few hundred marines are able to land and
hold their ground east OF Santiago. why could
not other forces have been forwarded thther
as fast as they were ready, some Of them hav-
ing been on shipboard according to reports, for
several days? Nor is 1t long since General
Miles, in answer to statements about the I'M
readiness Of the Army, announced that the
Regular troops were all prepared down to the
smallest detail weeks ago. II Is not unnatural
that men wonder In that case why the Regular
troops were not sent forward to Porto Rico
when Admiral Sampson went thlther. in order
to occupy and hold the Notifications he tempo
rarily disabled. BY this time that force might
have been able to leave volunteers In posses
sion OF the island and been free to make a
landing near Santiago.
But these questions and the thousands like
them, with all the impatience OF spirit which Is
90 natural, should In fairness be coupled with
the reservation that one outside official cir
cles can know all the difficulties which have to
be overcome. One Of those difficulties, It may
be presumed is the inexperience Of men who
are suddenly called upon TO equip, provide for
and move a considerable army. If there are
many soldiers who remember what they learned
over thirty years ago about such matters, there
are also many more In the Army who never
had that experience, while the civilians in the
executive departments are almost without ex-
ception wanting In such practical knowledge.
1t is not a thing that can be done by anybody
offhand and without error. this assembling and
moving Of armies. II the 600 most capable
business men In New-York were selected and
put In charge Of the job 1t Is questionable
whether the troops would get moved sooner.
Some things they would have done quickly, no
doubt, and they would have cut great deal
Of red tape and taken pride IN the perform
ance. but might afterward have discovered In
all probability that a lot OF necessary things
had been omitted which the red tape would
have compelled them to remember and provide.
The good people Of this country may be sure
that the President is as anxious as any man in
the United States can be to make short and
credltable work He has been a soldier, and
knows better than most men Of his age what
10 necessary and possible, and infinitely better
than the men who had not opportunity to learn
from experience thirty years or more ago. Per

THE FUTURE OF GERMANY AMI
RUSSIA,

IOSJDlta.
In the days Of their youthful friend
ship the present German Emperor said
to the Austrian Crown Prince: 81 mean
to follow the programme of Frederick
the Great" To which the Inflated
Archduke Rudolf resignedly replied:
THAT programme implies the destruc-
ton of AUSTRIA That programme is
being followed steadfastly, and the de-
struction of Austria seems to be her
only manifest destiny. And since on it's
debris, as we'll as those of Turkey,
which must needs crumble at the same
time, only some kind of mixed state or
confederacy can arise, of which Hun
gary most likely would assume the
hegemony, German policy aims at Sc
curing both predominant influence
at Pesth, and the control of the mill
tary forces Of the Sultan. This control
is now complete and unshakable, and
the disposal of some 100000 Turkish
troops, led by German officers, may de-
eide the fortunes of European war.
