dist. he will probably carry out the pol
icy OF his predecessor and advance
Chilean interests in whatever direction
they seem to need pushing. 1t Is very
strange To find in command three such
fiery and energetic men as Castro Of
Venezuela, Roca of Argentina and Ri

and aspirations seem TO be i'm accord on

whose methods OF operation are some

Whatever may be asserted OF thu

is a strong man, though perhaps a mis-
taken one. Roca is apparently the
greatest statesman OF the trio. having
had a lifelong training in public af-
fairs. He has been prominent so many
years that his future can be pretty
safely predicted from his actions in the
past. IL is, however. different with Ri
esco. who is not only younger man,
being yet on the right side of middle
age, but has not had Roca's wide ex-
perience. or the twain however, IL
may be said that they form the stron-
gest pair of statesmen TO be found in

This rroblem OF fixing an international

Emperor Williams Visit to Posen.

The report comes that Emperor William
has declared his intention to defy the dan
gers which 1t is said exist for him per-
sonally in Posen and enter that city es-
corted by 10000 of his troops as a sign
to the people of that part OF German Poland
that he is still the head of the state fear
less and. uTdaunted by threats. 1t is a
credible report. for it conforms to the &C
cepted idea of the emperors character. He
has never been amenable to advice and has
always Scorned warnings of personal dam
ger. He appears to be immune from fear
and to be beset chiefly with the Idea Of inn
pressing the people that he is the war
lord. Display of force appeals to his sense
of maintaining monarchical prestige. The
troubles in Posen are of an industrial ma
ture and do not especially affect the gov
eminent. But In the excitement of a
strike which has been in progress for some
time, hot references have been made. as in
most other such cases, to persons in au-
thority and there may have been idle
threats against the emperor. An organ
lied demonstration. however is far from
being at all likely, although since the en-
peror has declared his purpose to visit
Posen some of the more radical of the
strikers have threatened to organize pro-
cessions and in other ways to express their
feeling against the state. Poland is never
a very calm country. 1t contains always
the germs of an uprising. Every Pole is
possible frebrand. Both Germany and
Russia have had serious difficulty In re-
pressing this spirit of independence, but
there is the least possible likelihood of any
obvious unrest being caused in German
Poland by the strike or the emperor's
visit The show of force which the en-
peror proposes is on so large a scale as
to probably overawe the people of Posen
and to persuade them to postpone their
rows and demonstrations until after his call
and then to confne them to local scale.

Arraigning the Army.

The fresh indictment of the army in the
Philippines. which appears in print today
over the signature of several weli-known
anti-imperia1ists. is an indictment well
of the administration and of the republican
majority in the Senate. In substance. a
conspiracy against the truth Is charged
That the army as whole is tarred with
a very dirty stick these men do not doubt
And equally certain are they that it is being
protected from exposure by the War De-
partment and the Senate committee on Phil
lippnes. Give US. therefore" they de-
mand. In effect, "a full and fair investiga-
ton. and the country will stand appalled, at
the euormity of the offenses against hui
manity which have been committed In the
Philippines under the folds of the stars and
stripes
On the one side we have these hot gos-
peters with their wealth of assertion but no
proof. Not a one of them has ever been
in the Philippines But single one-Mr
Schurz-has even seen a day of real war
and his part in our civil war was incon-
spicuous. His complaints at that time and
his suggestions as to how operations should
be conducted were rebuked by Mr. Lincoln
over his own signature. What then does
this indictment amount to but the fulmina-
Ceptonai case or two of cruelty, but infiu-
enced In the main by hearsay, suspicion
and general disgruntlement?
On the other hand we have the testi-
mony Of eminent civilians and soldiers who
have Travelled all over the archipelago, who
have participated in the history that has
been made there. and who are regarded as
men of veracity. Their word would not be
challenged in court of Justice They de-
care, without reservation, that the war in
the Philippines has been conducted with
scrupuious regard for the best usages of
war. and that never was savage foe treat
ed with greater humanity This statement
moreover, is supported by the testimony of
English and German residents of the
ISLANDS. who, so far from criticising Ameri-
can operations for cruelty. express surprise
al their conservatism under extreme provo
cation. and the lessons which other nations
nave learned In dealing with Asiatics.
Where shall we turn for the truth? To
the side of the dilettanti. with their ignor
ahce of war and general arraignment of
american character? Or to the side of
those VINO are doing things according TO
everyday lights. and who in the practical
world stand for infinitely higher things than
90 their rhetorical detractors?
