War with Spain seems newt
able. There is no longer any
doubt that the blowing up of the
Maine was the result of foul play.
The question is only how long
the court of inquiry can delay
the official announcement of the
fact. Meanwhile Uncle Sam is
rushing war preparations. There
is a very slim chance that the
Spanish will pay an indemnity to
the United States. Such an act
of weakness" on the part of the
Spanish government would be
an objectionable sin in the eyes
of the ignorant people, and would
result in the overthrow of the
reigning family. Hence they will
probably prefer to precipitate a
conflict with the United States
than TO beforced to retire ufavor
of the Don Carlos. Meanwhile
the war spirit is growing in this
country: Weakness in a chief
executive is not a quality that is
popular in such times as these.
The picture of the Spanish Ha-
vaua making merry with jeering
festivities and bull fights while
vultures are picking the bones
of American sailors in the har Dor
is humi)iating enough to send the
blood boiling through every pa.
triotic citizens veins. War will
certainly come.

S. NJ. Owen Writes.
Editor Willmar Tribune:

Editor Willmar Tribune:
In Dr.. Johnson's letter, in your last
number, find these words: ''Senator
Butler declared himself a middle-of-
the-roader to Mr.. Owen himself in the
hearing of several gentlemen, and
heartily seconded the program of the
sO-called Johnson committee In
justice to Senator Butler I desire to
say that there is absolutely no founda-
ton for this statement. Senator But
Ter not only said nothing of the kind
in my hearing, but from what he did
say regarding the middle-of-t road
ers OF the johnson, Hanley, Fay and
Foster stripe 1 am positive that he did
not use the language attributed to him
in the hearing of anybody. Senator
Butler declared himself repeatedly and
emphatically, in private conversation
and in public addresses. in favor of
the honorable cooperation of the
peoples party, its organization to be
kept intact, with other parties and
forces for the purpose of overthrow
ing the present devastating plutocratic
rule in our government and country.
[ know of no populist who demands
any other kind Of 'fusion," and can
not conceive of a sincere or we'll in
formed one opposing such plan. 1t
is deplorable that so good and able
a man as DR.. Johnson finds himself
the champion of a cause that requires
such reckless statements to sustain it,
and that forces him into an alliance
with such men as those named here
with. S. M. OWEN.

Mr.. Poore wants the term ''hon-
orable cooperation explained.
Any combination of the people
that is made for the purpose of
righting existing wrongs and
abolishing abuses in the public
government is honorable. Com
binations that are entered into
for spoils alone are neither hon
orable nor patriotic. In regard
to the point he makes that the
populists are the only parties
cllmoring for fusion. we would
Say that the mid readers forced
the issue onto the popu1ists. Co.
operation is the settled policy of
the party, and there would have
been no agitation at this time but
for the cry of the mid-roaders.
The midroaders defeated their
movement from the beginning
by abusing leaders whom all pop
ulists have learned to trust, and
under whose gallant leadership
they gladly went to battle in the
last campaign.

Government VIII Not be SO Rigid
Regarding Naval Volunteers.

PHILADELPHIA, May IAN order
from the Navy Board was received at
Cramps ship yard by the officers who
have charge of the enlistment of volun-
teers in the naval service, directing that
the rigidity of the regulations be re-
laXed in order that recruits for the St.
Paul and the other auxiliary cruisers
may be more easily brought into service.
so many men have been rejected be-
cause of trivial physical defects, but
who are nevertheless desirable addi-
tions to the service that the relaxation
OF the new rule was found necessary.
1t is understood however, that the new
rule applies only to volunteers and that
the naval regulations governing the en-
1stment of regular seamen will be
strictly adhered to. The St Paul will
sail from Cramps ship yard on Wednes-
day next.

the state of the country forebodes very
grave consequences. The friaTs are
again raising their heads, and assert
ing themselves more than ever, perse-
cutting the natives who have returned
to their homes under the amnesty,
trumping up false charges of an irrel-
evant nature against those whom they
suspect of being antagonistic to them,
and openly defying the Government.
General Primo de Rivera is so disgust
ed with the Government not carrying
out his recommendations for reforms
that he has insisted upon being re-
lieved Moret, the Colonial Minister,
is evidently in earnest about reforms,
and from the papers now to hand from
Spain, is bent on secularizing the mon
astic orders; but he is meeting with
great opposition, probably by pressure
from the Queen Regent, which Sagas-
ia has not the moral courage to insist
upon removing.

What a God-send it would be for the
islands.
Respecting the present situation in
the Philippines, in turning over my
notes 1 have come across the memorial
that General Weyler sent to the Gov
ernment as far back as 1888, when
Governor General of the Philippines.
He cannot be taxed with any sympa-
thies for the natives nor, in fact, for
anybody but himself He is of the
Polavieja type, yet the following is a
literal translation of the last paragraph
of his dispatch:
The Government leaves the direc-
tion of the affairs of the archipelago to
Tie IIOIhS, W no treat the natives dS
at the time of the conquest. The lat
ter have not, it is true, attained the
intellectual and civil development of
Europeans, but they are no longer in
this respect in their infancy. The re-
ligious yoke, which cannot subdue them
any further, has at the present time
only an irritating effect. The natives
have no assured territorial rights, and
too much of that which they gain by
their industry is taken away by the
law and also contrary to the law. Be
sides the officials treat them with hau-
teur and injustice. If these abuses are
not corrected it would not be astonish-
ing if the natives were to rise en-
masse''
How very accurately Weyler judged
the situation. You will see that Spain
will cede no reforms unless drawn from
her by force Her whole history dur
ing this century goes to prove this.
