When Spain Makes Up Her Mind.

(New Haven JOurnal-Courler). J.
 No one seems to know what Is Go1 ing on in Spain unless it is Count dl Romanones. The army, the navy1 the minor officials of the government and the industrial workers are all growing and lying uneasily in bed1 that clericals and corrupt politician1
 have made for them. Occasional red
 ports of disturbances reach this coun.I
 try, enough to indicate that the| Iberian peninsula is swiftly becom9
 ing volcanic. An uprising, an up1 heaval is forecast.
 Not the least disturbing element iA| the German one. More than 80,0O0 Germans are estimated to be actiNe in behalf of the imperial governmental They have bought newspapers anal spread propaganda as ingeniously at they have everywhere else in ths] world. Many liberal papers, support-] ing the allies, have been suppressed. Meetings denouncing the government have been held repeatedly. Spanish ships have been sunk by U-boats, and the cry of intervention by Spain has been more insistent. Trade with tho United States has leaped by many millions, and the fear that neutrall Spain would suffer loss of this nec- essary intercourse, has had it's effect. When the people starve the rumbles of revolution increase. If Germany could have persuaded Spain to go into the war with her. between them they might have crushed France any time these three years. But Spain was not to be caught. On the other hand, if Spain now enters the war on the side of the allies, her force of several huns dred thousand men, available before those of the United States, nigh. wield the stroke to make the kaiser's mustache droop. North America ]. looks with great interest to Spain. South America has long looked to Spain as the mother country. AL ready Brazil and Bolivia have de| clared for intervention, and now Ar genuine favors the step. Shall Spain, whose future Is closely linked to that of the Americas, as well as to Africa, falter? They say that Count de Ro- Spain's great liberal states man, knows the answer, and that the glorious Spanish nation, awakening from its long lethrgy, stands proudly beckoning him to lead the way.
