AN EVENT.

1t would be indeed one of the roman
-ces of history, if the American forces,
en- route to the Philippines, should use
these Islands for a coaling and supply
station, and by authority of the Am
erican Congress should plant the flag
here even for an hour. Heretofore, the
discussion upon annexation has been
largely speculative estimates of the
value of this port, from strategic
point of view. Even the most earnest
debaters looked only to the distant
future for conformation of their re-
spective views. Men like Senator
White admitted no combination Of cir
cumstances that would give strategic
value TO these Islands. We believe
that no member of Congress, who was
in favor of, or opposed to annexation,
ever suggested in debate the possible
contingency of American soldiers, with
cavalry and artillery, crossing the
ocean Westward to the shores OF the
Far East, and the making of Hawan
camp fire and bivouac of their track
less path. Suddenly, in the very
twinklfng of an eye, this tidal wave
of war rises in the Atlantic, and with
the marvellous speed of such waves,
moves towards the Pacific, and may
within a few hours, bear into this port
on it's crest, the American legions.
The daring Of Dewey's fleet confuses
the thoughts of men, and bids fair to
change the map Of the Orient. The
shells of the Baltimore crumbled the
Spanish ports, but more than that, they
loosened up some American traditions.
Marvellous as the rapid growth of the
people of the United States has been,
there are few better evidences of its
searching vitality than the sudden
plunge into the Orient.

IF THE SOLDIERS COME.

AS the existing war is solely in the
interests of humanity, there is every
reason for the union Of all races here

lieve that the Englishmen should join

ing of the mother country The warm
sympathy of Englishmen everywhere
else, in this war against barbarism,
should not be suppressed here, be-
cause there are some political anita
gonisims in existence. 1t should never
be said. if the American troops call
here, that while the British Queen
warmly sympathises, as we believe
with the Americans in the efforts to
suppress revolving barbarism, her sub
iects on these Islands, for fear of the
political aspects of the case and from
an entirely personal standpoint, went
off and sulked, and filled the air with
their suspicious When Commodore
TatnalI saw the British warships near
Iy disabled in the fight with the Chi
nese before the ports of the Peiho
river, and sent his boats crew to work
the British guns, he simply said;

not stop to balance up the morals of
the British war with China, nor did
he pull down his books, and read about
the obligations of neutrals. President

Whether the Germans will sympa-
thize with the millions of their own
countrymen who are under the Stars
and Stripes is for them to say. They
may follow the cold neutrality of the
Fatherland. They may, with the rich
stores of American gold flung into
their laps, for near a quarter of a cen
tury, warm to a glow of gratitude, that
forgets neutrality for a moment. 1t is
for them to decide. The Americans
born and residing here do not ask their
aid and comfort. 1t is merely an oc-
casion for some tribute to the Nation

A SUDDEN SURRENDER.

It would not be surprising if the next
mail brought news that Spain had ask
ed for a suspension of hostilities, and
desired to negotiate peace on the terms
of the independence of Cuba, with the
restoration of the Philippines. It is
her last chance to preserve something
out of the Cuban wreck. If Spain takes
this action at once the Government of
the United States might consent to i'm
pose upon Cuba the whole or part of
the Cuban debt. Spanish "honor" may
be satisfied like that of the bombastic
fellow, who engaged in a fight to save
his honor, and after his nose was bit
ten off by his opponent, declared that
his honor" was satisfied, and he would
retire like a gentleman.
When the Spanish Queen asked the
Pope to pray for the success of the
Spanish arms, she forgot that the Holy
Father had eight millions of Ameri-
can Catholics to pray for also. He was
severely bound to maintain neutral
ity of prayer.
