THE FIGHT AGAINST sCHLEY.

One of the most diSgraceful things con-
nected with our war with Spain has been
the obstinate unreasonins, and unJusu-
fable fight made on Schley. We trust
the hands Of the President are clean of II,
hut. If so, the Secretary Of the Navy. or
the Board of Navigation. or some other
powerful official influence at Washington
has been at the bottom OF ii.
No opportunity is lost TO give Schley
a stab. whenever ii is possible. And what
has nc done to deserve this hostility:
Was il his fault that Sampson was acct
dentally absent when the naval battle oc-
Cured off Santiago? Did Schley deceit
fully get Sampson out of the way in order
TO steal the glories of the day? WE'LL
really. it looks as If some Of Simpsons
partisans thought so.
We favor giving Sampson full credit
for the disposition he made of his ships
and the plans Of battle that he formn-
lated; but it was his misfortune that he
was not there when the eng cement TOOK
place. He cannot make the American
people honor him as the hero OF battle
which was fought in his absence. That
is impossible. Had any disaster occurred
TO our feet at Santiago on July 3, $685. we
may be sure Sampson would have sad
died the blame upon Schley. Recent
events have shown that the Sampson 1ac-
ton are willing to so any length almost
TO boost Sampson and belittle Schley.
But II can never be forgotten by the pub
lie that in his telegram announcing the
victory over Cervera Sampson left the
public uniformed as TO the fact that he
was absent during the heat of the action,
and that Schey was in command.
At present the malign influence at
Washington which has so long pursued
Schley is bent upon dragging him into
court of inquiry over the Hodgson colo
guy. We suspect the scheme is to tor
ment poor Hodgson into demanding
court Of inquiry to settle the question OF
veracty between himself and Lieuten-
ant-Commander Heilner. In that way
court of SIMPSONS partisans might be
appointed to dive into all Of the questions
that might be raised. Thus a one-sided
report against Schley might be concocted.
Does the suggestion strike the public with
horror? We do not see why il should
when we recall the history Of the court
of inquiry in the matter Of the embalmed
beef
We think the President will fall far
short of his duty If he fails to "sit down
upon" any further hostile movement
against Schley, no matter whence 1t
cornca

that the sooner the war Is ended the bet
ter and we adhere to the position, from
which we have never. wavered. that since
we have been plunged into Il the prestige
Of the country must be sustained. But. In
view OF all the facts. Il appears TO us
that the pursuit by Mr. McKinley-of' tho
only course by which that end can be
attained viii but intensity the wrath the
masses will visit upon him and his party
for starting the republic on career OF
conquest and subjugation. AS we pointed
out the other day, Il appears more than
probable that the number OF troops that
will be needed TO carry out Mr.. Mckinley's
policy OF benevolent assimilation VIII
call for resort TO the bounty system. THIS
would mean heavy addition to the
financial burdens of the country, which
Is already staggering under a TREMENDOUS
load OF taxation, and is running to Van
alarming deficit So II would seem that,
what with the demand OF such papers
as the North American, and popular re-
cognitiop Of what the meeting OF that
demand would entail, Mr.. Mckinley and
imperialism can hardly avoid being drawn
finally between the upper and the neither
