Conditions in Spain.

With martial law in Madrid. with
riots in the provinces, with chaos in the
Cortes poor Spain is sore afflicted.
Since the receipt Of the news Of the
crushing defeat at Manila the tenure
Of the Sagasta ministry has been ex-
tremely precarious, and the security OF
the throne itself is monaced in no small
degree.
The Spanish temperament lacks the
moral fibre which should enable it 10

strong in time Of defeat. We have seen
the same manifestations recently
among the Italians. for the defeat of
the Italian army by the Abyssinians at

The Democratic statesmen in Con-

forget their narrow craftsmanship since
the war revenue bill has been under

the government means to carry it on.
The half dozen Democrats who voted
with the House Republicans in passing
the bill have had to stand all manner
Of billingsgate from the other members
Of their party. For instance James
Hamilton Lewis, the tiorid Washington
orator arose in the House. the other
day, and condemned as orators those
Democrats who voted to raise money
for carrying on the war for which
Lewis himself had voted. 1t was
strange logic, but Lewis is strange
being. He singled out Cummings Of
New York as a shocking example of
ing the national government in our war
With Spain. The New York man re-
torted with spirit and came off victor
He recalled the fact that all the Demo-
Gratis in the House, including Lewis,
had voted for the $50, 0c0 900 appropriate
ton, which had been passed in antici
patton of war and he thought that 1t
was just as patriotic to vote for bill
to raise money as for one to spend it,
Then he turned to the subject of the
currency long enough to say that ''if a
Democratic administration was forced
to sell $300,000,00o of bonds in time Of
peace to run the government, that tho
Republican administration might be al
government in time of war"
