The Disaster TO the Maine.


The Obstruction Of the u. s. bait le.
ship Maine, iu the harbor Of Havan.
na, by an explosion on the night of
10th inst is still as much Of a mys-
terry as when first the disaster took
place, although theory after theory
has been advanced as to the cause.
Our government has set on foot an
investigation which should speedily
develope something tangible,a it will
be exhaustive in every detail. The
country has thus far maintained a
most commendable attitude of silent
reserve and eople Of all shades Of
political belief have shown a dispo
sition to await the inquiry which has
been set on foot to ascertain the ex.
act facts in the matter before express.
ing judgment.
The Spanish government has seem.
ingly shown as much desire as our
own to have the mysterious calamity
cleared up, and to free itself of any
blame, and until such time as the
blame can be fastened where it be-
lougs judgment should be suspended
Nothing can be gained by an attempt
to iufsme the minds of the people A
cool, systematic and businesslike in.
vestigation will in all probability re.
veal al, and then if it is found to
have been the work of treachery on
the part of the Spanish government
the American people will not be slow
to demand the fullest reparation.
On board the battleship there were
nearly five hundred human beings,
officers, crew and mariners, and more
than one. half this number lost their
lives, and many more are manned for
life by the terrible explosion which
totally destroyed the great ship.
Whether it came from within or with.
out will doubtless be entirely demon.
strated by the divers who have al.
ready begun the hazardous task OF
making thorough examination of the
hull of the vessel under the direction
of Caption Sigsbee of the ill.fated
Maine.

The Republicans of the country
seem entirely willing to accept the
gage of battle thrown down by the
Democratic Congressional Committee
in their declaration in favor of the
proposition of the Chicago platform
of 1896. Every Congressional con.
vention and other utterance by Re.
publican conventions or organizations
during the present year has been
clearly and distinctly in favor OF
keeping the currency of the nation at
its very highest standard The Re.
publicaus have welcomed an oppor.
tunity to meet the enemy upon the
same battle ground 10 which they
won their splendid victory of 1896.

ECONOMY and prompt business
methods are the rule of action in the
National House Of Representatives,
which is controlled by the Republi.
cans. Present indications are that
the appropriation bills of the present
Congress will be kept at the very
lowest possible figure, and that the
record for prompt action upon them
will be an unusually good one. Ter
of the appropriation bills have al
ready passed the House, and it is ex
pected the remainder will be disposed
of very promptly.

ASSISTANT SECRETARY of the Navy
Roosevelt says "the United States is
lie with Germany for fifth place in
naval power among the great ma,
tions." This is an effective answer to
the ignorant writers and takers who
say that the United States would be
au easy prey for Germany and the
other natious of Europe in a war with
any of those countries. The fact is,
in the quality of its vessels and in
general fighting strength, only two
nations of the world -Eogland and
France are ahead OF the United
States However, the naval strength
of the United States is for below
what it ought to be. Liberal appro.
PriaIions for the navy and for coast
defence should be made, aud the
work on both vigorously pushed.

TREASURY figures are assuming a
brighter and more satisfactory con.
dition. Receipts this month thus far
have averaged over million dollars

will be seen that the new law has al.
ready practically reached the point
promised by its framers-an income
equal to the expenditures.

address in defence of State Trea surer

when the appropriation was in-
creased to FIVE and a half million dol.

propriated to the schools was paid
promptly at the close of the school
