a PARALLEL.

Mckinley and Sagasta ought to
sympathise with each other. Each
conservative surrounded by radicals,
the two are practically in the same
boat and drifting toward the same
reefs. Much against his will Mr..
Mckinley will be forced to interfere
in Cuban affairs, and very much
against his will Senior Sagasta will
be forced to resent it. No govern
ment could live day in Spain that
consented to Cuban independence,
and no Administration can retain
popular approval in the Uuited
States which does not demand it,
and enforce its demands. Sagasta
serves dynasty whose existence de-
ponds upon the retention of all the
Spanish possessions. The loss of Cuba
would mean the loss of his crown to
the little king, and the soldierly
Don Carlos, would once more become
king of Spain and Defender of the
Faith. The Premier of SPAN, and
the Executive of the Uuited States
each individually, and the two to-
gether, are between the devil and the
deep sea, and if either knows which
he breads the most he HASN'T told
anybody.

THE GALLANT SlGSBEE.

Capt. Sigsbee, who calm. and cool
stood on the shattered deck of his
ship expecting each moment another
mighty explosiont, he last to leave it
and first to look after his wounded
comrades-Sigsbee truly the typical
American Naval officer who with the
noise of the shock yet in his ears was
hero enough to cable summary of
the calamity and..to ask for sus-
pension of judgement from his fell
low citizens--is at home in Washing
ton, the hero of the city and of the
hour, as he should be. He did no
more than his duty. no more than II
great country like ours should expect
from sons trained from boyhood to
the traditions of duty and of honor,
ut the fact that he did his whole
duty in the midst of such hell of
carnage and confusion, and that he
is only specimen of his class, should
te taken into consideration by the
fools who reckon the United States
''ffth rate" power and sneer at
her navy.
Take from such men their mag
nlticent battle ships, blow up the
White Squadron and sink the mon
itors, and in thirty days they will
have fleet adrift like Arnold had
on Lake Erie, and whip the navies
of the world with them.

the BONE AND SINEW-

In the discussion of the all per.
vading topic of the hour, it should
not be forgotten that the great
majority of the people of these
United States, have not yet made any
public expression of their sentiment.
The masses are not the people who
manufacture public sentiment. One
man writes and thousands read, each
one thinking that the thousands are
speaking through the man who
writes. But suppose this public
sentiment created by the few who
write, or speak results in war, it is
the thousands and the millions who
will pay the taxes, and bear the bur.
dens of the conflict, and who will die
In vindication of this "public
opinion" The waste of war. de.
plorable in any aspect is more de-
piorable when we consider that it
will inevitably make the poor poorer,
and just as inevitably make the
speculative class of the rich richer
The Franco Prussian war, the most
destructive to life and to values
while it lasted, in history, fell with
crushing weight on the silent mas
ses' of society. 1t was this class
that furnished the mighty list of the
slain, and we are told that the
small farmers and tradesman of
France paid the colossal war indem-
nifty. The people who talk and the
people who write should remember
the great mass of their fellow
countrymen, who pay the tax in
peace and do the fighting in war.

the SITUATION.

AS we go to press the situation
seems more clearly defined than
heretofore. The ''ultim alum"
foreshadowed in the NEWS three
weeks ago has been forwarded to
Spain and the issue rests with that
Government. In any event Cuba
will be free, and in any case, the
Island will eventually come under
the protection of the United States
either as a dependency or a pos
session. Next week we will know
whether this result will be a vic
tory of diplomacy, or of war.

fer To send their daughters off to
