THE AMERICAN REJOINDER.
silver throughout the United ite8
hut specially requests that the monej
be sent to the home office p and not
intrusted to agents. There are some
features connected with the Gnancial
operations of the country which Har
vey understands as well as anybody.
Not very many years ago a cer
tain Gen. Weaver was going about
the country with an elaborate array
of figures purporting to show how the
Republican party bad bankrupted
the Iowa state treasury. At present
the state debt amounts to exactly
$200,000, all of which will be paid
within six months, to the intense dis
gust of the "Weaverites.
The rejoinder of the American
peace commissioners to the Spanish
reply in the matter of the Philippines
emphasizes two points: First, that
when the American government, at
the request of Spain, submitted terms
on which peace negotiations would
be conducted ic declared that Spain
most accept or reject them in their
entirety. These terms were prac
tically identical with those that were
afterward embodied in the protocol.
Second, that when the Spanish foreign
minister sent his letter of Aug. 7th,
making the point that Spain a priori
reserved her sovereignty in the Phil
ippines, the American government
presented the protocol as the only
basis for peace negotiations. Spain
accepted the protocol without further
communication, verbal or otherwise.
This illustrates the difference be
tween American and Spanish diplo
macy. It was understood in this
country and in Europe that there was
to be no higgling over terms of
peace. The United States presented
a plain, direct proposition which
psin was to accept or reject. If
she rejected the proposition, our
army, with guns trained on 'the
Spanibh lines iu Porto Rico, and our
army and navy, with guns trained on
Manila, and our battle-ships ready
to sail for the coast of Spain, would
proceed on instructions that con
templated the crushing of Spanish
power not oulv in the "West Indies,
but in the far East and in Europe.
Spain was the suppliant and the
United States was dictating terms.
Spam accepted, and no questions
were raised as to the meaning of the
protocol until the Philippine question
came up at Paris. Then the Spanish
commissioners brought forward the
letter of Aug. 7 th, as though it was
an authoritative interpretation of the
terms of the protocol.
This contention was absurb on its
face, but it was in keeping with
Spanish diplomacy. It was most de
sirable that any ground for suspicion
or any doubt as to the position of
this government be cleared away at
once. The statement of the Ameri
can commissioners makes it clear to
Spain and to all Europe that in this
controversy the American idea of
diplomacy is to prevail.
Spain was at the mercy of the
United States when she asked for
peace. Her navy had been de
stroyed ; one of her strongholds in
Cuba had been captured; an army of
100,000 men was ready to strike at
Havana; our navy in the Atlantic
was foot loose to strike at Havana,
or at the Spanish coast; the only
Spanish stronghold in the Philippines
was practically in our hands, and
General Miles was tightening his grip
on the Spanish army in Porto Rico.
Without allies, without a navy, with
a demoralized army, and with revolu
tion threatening at home, Spain -accepted
the terms of the United
States, and these terms are to be
carried out.
Great Britain will not join in the
proposed conference to be held in
Rome for the purpose of taking action
to suppress anarchism. Should the
time ever come, however, when Eng
land shall be menaced by anarchism
she will find a way to suppress it
without calling a conference.
