THE FUTURE OF THE SPANISH RACE.

The proposal that the next Pan-American
Congress shall be held at RuenOs AyreS in
1910 conformity with the celebration of the
Tooth anniversary OF the beginning of the Ar
cpntine war for independence. has much TO
commend it. The congress has twice been held
in the United States. once in Mexico and once
i'm Brazil In turn we suppose each American
rapublic will be its host. Seeing what they are
now doing for peace. union and their own ad-
vancement the Central American states might
make n strong bid for il. So might Cuba. when
she has found herself again. as she will soon
do One Of these days, perhaps coincldently
with the completion and opening of the canal,
we shall hope to see it at Panama, where
eighty-odd years ago the first attempt was
made at holding such congress. But il may
well be that for the next meeting Argentina.
with her palatial capital, has the strongest
claims.
The question. however it may be decided
serves a reminder of the continued greatness,
the steady growth and the high and inspiring
future promise of the Spanish race in both the
New World and the Old. Nothing could be more
fatuous than to consider Spain morbund Or
the Spanish race the world around as degener-
ate or declining. The fact is that the great
Iberan kingdom itself, so long the apparent
sport of malicious and incOnstant fortune con
tains within itself the promise and potency of
splendid renasccnce. while the Spanish race
at large is to-day more numerous more power
ful and more progressive than ever before in its
amazing history. Never was the Spanish Ian
