SPAIN MUST BEND TO THE ROD
It becomes clearer every day that
Spam, with all her old cunning, is
playing for delay in the adjustment
of affairs in Cuba, Porto Rico, and
the Philippines, In this she is in
spired both by mercenary and politi
cal motives. "While she retains con
trol of the customs machinery in
Cuba and the Philippines, every day
turns into her treasury much-needed
money. Man3T of her public men are
familiar enough with American poli
tics to know that President McKin
ley's expansion policy may be affected
by the result of the congressional
elections. If there should be a Demo
cratic victory in November, Spain
would assume a more defiant atti
tude, would insist upon conditions
not contemplated now, and would
make a stubborn resistance to the
JIcKinley program in the belief that
congress would not sustain the presi
dent. In this belief, the public men of
Spain are haggling over the Cuban
and the Philippine debts and are
quibbling about the technicalities of
evacuation in Cuba and Porto Rico.
All this is preposterous. The case is
in the hands of the United States,
not in the hands of Spain. A prompt
settlement depends solely on the at
titude taken by our government. It
should be made clear to the Madrid
government at once that we shall not
assume any debt in Cuba, Porto
Rico, or the Philippines. Spain
would not dream of renewing the war
because of a $40,000,000 item in the
Philippines. She has no sea power to
entorce any demaud whatever. She
has arranged to send home her mili
tary reserves, and her armies in Cuba
and Porto Rico are at the mercy of
the United States. She is in no con
dition to make a single effective de
mand, and the American people are
In no mood to tolerate any temporiz
ing lo the disadvantage oi the United
States and to the benefit of the con
quered nation.
It is the duty of our government
to exhibit in Paris the same spirit
and energy that were displayed in
the conduct ot the war. The vigor
with which military and naval opera
tions were pushed was as effective in
closing the war as was the capture of
Santiago itself. Short as the war
was, it cost us 360,000,000. We
are asking no indemnity. This is
treating Spain with more magnanim
ity than has been shown any defeated
nation in modern times. In the war
of 1871 France lost two of her most
flourishing provinces and paid an in
demnity of $1,000,000,000. If no
indemnity is exacted from Spain, and
if the United States claims only the
territorj' which she h3 conquered,
there can be no question of our as
suming any debt for any island.
There should be no delay in the
evacuation of Cuba or Porto Rico.
The United States owes it to the Cu
bans and the Porto Ricans to assume
control as soon as possible. AVaiting
while Spain quibbles over minor con
ditions is simply an inducement to
disorder and anarchy. It would
serve the purpose of Spain to pro
mote the rule of outlawry, but the
United States is not interested in
serving the purpose of Spain. She is
pledged to establish order, to prevent
outlawry, to give the people of all
the conquered territory a stable gov
ernment; and she must proceed to do
this with reference to the people of
Cuba and Porto Rico and the Philip
pines, and not with reference to the
convenience of Spain. Clearness in
the statement of the American pur
pose, firmness in exacting compliance
with the instructions of this govern
ment, and repudiation of any pur
pose to consider the possibility of
Spain's unloading any debt upon us,
constitute the policy which will bring
to us most speedily a complete and
lasting peace. Inter Ocean.
Three Doctors In Consultation.
From Benjioiin Franklin.
"When you are sick, what you like
best is to be choeen for a medicine in the
first place; what experience tells you is
best, to be chosen in the second place;
what reason (i. e.. Theory") eays is best
is to oa chosen in the last place. But if
you can get Dr. Inclination, Dr. Ex
perience and Dr. Reason to hold a con
sultation together, they will give you
the best advice that can be taken."
When you have a bad cold Dr. Incli
nation would recommend Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy because it is pleasant
and safe lo take. Dr. Experience would
recommend it because it never fails to
effect a speedy and permanent cure.
Dr. Reason would recommend itbecanse
it is prepared on scientific principles,
and acts on nature's plan in relieving
the luugs, opening the secretions and
restoring the system to a natural and
healthy condition. For sale by Blakeley
