NEWSPAPER OPINION

spain at the Pan-American Congress
From the New York Sun.
There was nothing entirely true and
proper in the eloquent remarks of Cen
eral Rafael Reyes, Colombian delegate
to the Pan-American Congress, con-
cerning the close bonds between the
South American republics and their
mother country. Neither the dignity
of this nation nor the potency or
pOtentiality of the Monroe Doctrine
was impaired in the slightest degree by
|oratorical expression of an affectiOnats
sentiment toward Spain Il was nalu-
raj that General Reyes should speak as
he did at the banquet to the delegates.
in the presence of the Spanish minister
TO Mexico. The circumstance that the
United States had been recently at war
with Spain was no bar to hearty con-
.currence in the spirit Of General
Reyes remarks by the representatives

The ties between the Latin-American
peoples and old Spain are those of race.
language, history, tradition. and psy-
.chology. They are not political In
the nature of things they cannct again
become political in any sense incon
sistent with the requirements of thb
Monroe Doctrine. which means as much
to the republics south of us as It does
Ito ourselves.
Good feeling toward Spain Is prob
'ably as conspicuous at this time north
of the Rio GNnde as anywhere on the
American continent beyond that river.
We doubt If there is any country in the
world where good wishes for Spain's
welfare and increasing prosperity are
livelier than here in the United States
today; and it is a pleasure to add that
every indication OF the sentiment Of
the Spanish people points to a re-estab-
lishment of the friendship which OK
listed so long between the two coun-
tries.
There is absolutely no reason why
the Spanish Minister to Mexico should
not be persona grata near THE secont
Congress of Pan-Americanism.

reason for supposing that we should

such as drinking the blood Of their

Sir: People living and owning prop

tiuuous complaint that they are being
shaken out of sleep, and nearly out Cf

carry coal and pig iron across the
continent than for passengers. They
are large. heavily constructed, light
wheeled cars, and at the speed peculiar
to the Peoples line they shake the
buildings from foundation to roof and
drive sleep entirely away. We honest

as they have they will shake many

then, are they able to- make the ap-
pondix come out so dear? Perhaps it
is all right, but it does not seem so.
The trouble is not so much that tine
skillul gentlemen who do the work are
not worth their hire, as that it is so
hard for the average victim of circum-
stances to raise so much money.
There must be hundreds OF compe-
tent surgeons in New York who would
gladly take out appendices for a hun
dred dollars apiece, ten per cent. off
for cash. and some further reduction
in cases of large orders. The diff
Guilty is in getting these gentlemen in
communication with their market. One
usually waits before parting with his
appendix until it begins to hurt, and
then he is in a violent hurry and cam

Little Fellow Was a Hero

The doctor and his needle of vaccina-
tion is at present a great bug bear to
the little folk of Wilmington. Many of
the school children, however, find some
compensation in the fact that they may
get a chance to stay home from school
while the arm is sore. and submit to
the ordeal without protest.
A well-known newspaper editor in
Wilmington has a small son who yes
terday displayed his bravery and also
that he was a chip of the old block.
He stood the irritating sensation pro
duced by the needle without a whim-
per He is but year old, but he stood
up 10 the doctor like Trojan. While
the physician was operating on his lit
tie barred arm his face wore a smile
and when the red blood came to the
surface the small chap looked up at his
father and said: Daddy, what is the
doctor painting my arm for?'

Back TO our Night, that is the most we
know.
But clinglng to us are thin mystic
things,
Vague dreams and visions, dim remem-
behring's,
And whispers low, that tell us that we
have known
Strange vanished glories and some
beauty flown,
Some hand has fettered we'll each pill
grim heart,
And seldom does Life's captive force
apart
The ancient chain and stand his mo-

Yet some night-wind blown off the
surging sea,
The wings of music beating on its bars.
Some glimpse Of twilights first great
stars,
The April thrush that pipes across the
cold,
The solemn fields with autumn sunlight
gold,
And that sad pleasure THAT is known as
Love:
These whisper Of the things we know

seek.
