WEYLERISM OR M'KINLEYISM
There is no longer any mystery
about the dilatory tactics of the
Spanish commissioners at the Paris
conference. It is net a mere case of
"manana," doing nothing today
which, can be put off until tomorrow.
It is rather a subtle game of diploma
ey. Spain, won no victories on land or
sea and can hope to win none.
Neither was she able to summon any
of the powers of Europe, great or
small, to her help, but an ally has
been found right here in the United
States. Negotiations are hindered
in the hope that the Democratic party
will win the Jsovember'elections.
Nowhere will the election returns
be awaited with such feverish aDxiety
as in Madrid. Sagasta and bis cabi
net, the Queen Regent, and the
Cortes know perfectly well that a de
feat of the American administration
is their one forlorn hope. Such de
feat would be interpreted ever3' where
as a popular rebuke of our war policy
and a demand that the fruits of vic
tory be thrown away.
' "While the war fever was coming
n the people were eager and united,
but now that hostilities have been
i
suspended and a chance given for
sober second thought how do the
American people feel? Do they still
stand by the president and his ex
pansion policy ? An old Spanish
proverb says that republics and
weathercocks are alike fickle, and
Spain's own Republican episode of a
few years ago has evidently em
phasized this proverb at Paris.
The Spanish conferees at the French
capital are waiting for what next
week Tuesday will bring forth. The
best known American state, New
York, has in the field for governor,
Theodore Roosevelt, whose name is
familiar to every Castiliar. hidalgo.
He and his rough riders were the
picturesque and sensational feature
of our army in Cuba. His defeat
would be hailed at Madrid as a
glorious victory for Spain. It would
te the next thing to a similar humili
ation for Dewe3 No other land
soldier stands out with such distinct
ness as the colonel of the rough
riders. But still more distinct is the
composite picture of congress. A
Democratic majority in that body
would fire the Spanish heart as noth
ing else could except the destruction
of our fleet now in Manila bay. It
would be accepted at Madrid as proof
1 that the Americans want McKmley
thwarted in his expansion policy.
That is the interpretation which
would be put by every European
court upon a general Democratic
victory. Intervention then would
menace us and perhaps necessitate a
renewal of hostilities on a larger and
bloodier scale than ever.
In view of all this nothing could
be more timely than the danger
signal Mr. Frederick W. Seward has
just hung out. "Most of us," he says
in a letter to the New York Tribune,
"are assuming that the war is over.
That is not the Spanish view. Does
any Spanish general or statesman ad
mit that the war is definitely con
cluded ? No; he says there is a sus
pension of hostilities. He has no de
sire or expectation of gaining an3'
thing more by fighting, but he be
lieves that much maybe retrieved by
diplomacy that ws lost by fighting."
' Mr. Seward adds that a Democratic
victory would be interpreted as an
American backdown, the repudiation
of our policy as to war and its result,
and that for this reason "Spain would
wave her 'banners of blood and gold'
over what she would construe to be a
Spanish victory, the more acceptable
because it would be her first qne of
the war." This is a statement of the
case worthv the senior Seward in his
Prominent citizens of Missouri
have become interested in behalf of
young Jesse . James. The interest
which prominent citizens of Missouri
exhibited in the father of this j'oung
man cost the state, according to the
estimate of leading citizens of St.
Louis, an incalculable amount of
of money. In fact, Missouri hasn't
recovered from it vet.
