1T LOOKS LIKE WAR.

in official pircles that it will be i'm
possible for the United States to
avoid conflict with Spain. The
strained relations existing prior to
the horrible tragedy of the Maine
incident were such that war seem
ed not only possible but probable.
The heiuous crime of the destruc-
tion of the Maine, and the murder
of the 259 brave souls on board of
her has placed both nations in an
attitude that it seems impossible to
retire from without war.
The careful and close investiga-
tion that has been made into the
loss of the Maine leaves no shadow
Of doubt but ihat she was de-
stroyed by submarine mine or a
floating torpedo. The attitude of
the Spanish government goes a
long way to establish the fact.
They have taken no energetic steps
to discover the cause of the explo-
sion, but give out off hand and care
lessly that it was caused by an ex-
plosion on board the ship. They
will lend no aid nor help to trace to
earth the hell hounds who commit
ted the infamous anG horrible act.
Then the Cuban situation has
become absolutely uubearable.
This country can no longer assist
Spain in keeping down a people on
freedom bent. Ii has done so too
long already. These matters all
point to war.
War is horrible; war is awful!
But there are some things more
horrible and awful than war. The
murderious, traitorous destruction
of vessel and the slaughter of ESQ
innocent men in time of peace is
more horrible and awful; the sta1v-
ing of men, women aud children
who never took part nor lot in
conflict is worse, and above all
national dishonor is far more horri-
bic and awful than the most devas-
tating war.
1t is most encouraging to note
that when danger threatens the
land that we are united. There
are no parties nor factions in con-
gress. The national defence bill
that passed both houses of congress
without dissenting vote proves
that in the hour of need dissention
and strife are lost sight Of, and all
act together. An unquestioned
reliance is placed upon the presi-
dent and all his cabinet, and free
republic stands united at their back.
This fact alone is the strongest ele-
ment toward peace.
A nation full of resources and
united in sentiment commands re-
spect from the honorable nations
and cows in fear trucking, cow
ardly nation of assassins. War
may not come: we hope that it will
not. But rather than be neighbor
to a cowardly assassin that blows
up ships in the dark; rather than
have the slaughter of innocents
continue i'll the fair isle of Cuba,
and rather that the slaughter of the
brave and innocent sailor boys of
the Maine go unpunished, the
United States had better wage war
that will destroy the Spanish ma
tions forever.
