MONDAY FEBRUARY 20. 1899
Ji. YEAR WHICH MADE HISTORY
A great deal of exciting and im
.portant history was made in the
United States in the twelve months
which have just ended. The destruc
tion of the battleship Maine, . in the
harbor of Havana, on February 15,
1898, was a decisive datemark in the
countrj''s annals. It is usually dif
ficult to assign the exact starting
point to any epochal chain of circum
stances. Occurrences have a habit
of running into each other so imper
ceptibly. that it is commonly impos
sible, with any confidence, to point
out the happening with which, and
time at which, t ley began. It would
suit the world's convenience to have
. events divide themselves up into
chapters, yet events ordinarily show
no disposition to do soi The destruc
tion of the Maine, however, has this
decisive significance, that it cut short
the doubts and hesitation in our deal
ings with Spain regarding the out
come of the Cuban issue, and made
war between the United States, and
Spain certain.
Thus February 15, 1898, is a great
landmaik in the nation's history. It
"brought to a Culmination a c6utury
of controversies between the United
States and Spain, and rendered it im
possible in the future for any further
complications to arise between these
two countries in the Western he mi
sphere. The first disagreement
which arose between them was about
tKu tiovinnfmn gf f 1 1 n f iootcci nrti n ti
this lasted, with only short intermis
, .sions, from, the end of the war of in
dependence, in 1783, on to the ac
quisition of Louisiana, in 1803. Then
I At ' A T . 1 . T71I " 1
came me irouuie aoout norma,
which did not end until that region
was ceded to us, in 1821. Cuba has
-been a cause of serious disagreement
between the two counties often
since the century began, particularly
during the Lopez and Crittenden fili
bustering days, from 1849 to 1852,
in the Black Warrior episode, in
1854, and at the time of the "Virginius
outrage, in 1873. From Washing
ton's administration ouward to Mc
Kinley's the United States was often
on the verge of war with Spain for
that country's arrogance, blindness
and wickedness. The war which the
event of February 15, 1898, precipi
tated wiped out the memory of a
loug list of outrages on Americans
by Spain, and removed all chances of
future disagreements between the
United States and that country.
In another and larger respect that
date is a turning point in American
history. It ended the sway of the
isolationist idea, born in the days of
the country's newness and feebleness,
when even the small space it occupied
on the map was only sparsely peopled.
T. 1 -3 a .i i .
j.u uiuiucueu me circle oi me coun
try's interests and activities, enlarged
the mental horizon of its people, and
gave the United States a higher place
in the respect of the great nations of
the world. There is a possibility that
if the destruction of the Maine had
not taken place the outrages in Cuba
Wouii be still under way, or that the
insurgents, exhausted by their long
and hopeless struggle, would haye
given up the fight. It seems hardly
possioie, from : what the country-
learned last summer of the condition
of the insurgents, that they could
kave continued the conflict twelve
. months longer if the United Slates
bad not intervened. The war which
the events of a year ago precipi
tated, ended Spain's, four centuries
of connection with the Western hem
isphere, and created a ne w and great
er America, which is henceforth
destined to hoi J a far larger place in
the life and development.of the uni
verse than it has hitherto filled, or
- than anybody a year ago supposed
that it would fill in the near future.
Thus, February, 15, 1898, becomes a
great datemark in the world's historyr
