Ex-Secretary of State
Sherman Divulged
One of Them.
Says Negotiation for the Pur
chase of Cuba Wert) Under
Way.
By the Associated Press.
Chicago, Deo. 20. .V special to
the Tribune from Washington says:
Former Secretary of State John
Sherman, in an interview, tells an
interesting cabinet secret, which in
the days before the war was fre
quently suspected, but never es
tablished. With considerable
emotioo, the ex-secretary said:
"I tried to prevent this foolish
war with Spain. As a matter of
fact, negotiations were aleeady in
progress to purchase Cuba from
Spain when the war feeling sud
denly' rose and swept everything
before it. And Spain would have
accepted the terms.
"This is a matter of secret his
tory. And now what have we to
show for all this expense? Some
islands in the Philippines, for in
stance, which are worth , about
$200,000 per annum income; in.
created indebtedness of $200,000,
000 and a lot of islands inhabited
mainly by man-eaters. And the
most distressing feature of the af
fair is that we are now about to be
called upon to pay $20,000,000 for
territory that we could have taken
without spending a cent."

Where Ameiica Is.
There is some reason for impatience
at this talk ot "England with her bsok
to the wall." What nation attacks, ot
in existing cirenmstanoes wants to at
tack, the "ruler of the wavee?" It has
been a great many years einoe the
mightiest French ruler that ever lived
thought ot assailing England, and be
did not. Tulk of alliances there baa
been by the wagon-load, but it never
moved a regiment or a gunboat. Irri
tations there have been by the million;
mosquitoes swarm when a man lies
down to sleep in peaoeful summer.
What excuse is there for saying tbat
the British ambassador spoke at Paris
too strongly? He Baid what the ablest
and best men of Franco have said ot
their own national course. He spoke as
Anglo-Saxons always should, what they
tbiuk and mean, A nation which marks
with pin prioks its path to glory ought
to hear the fact stated without Bhame,
and the inevitable end suggested with
out surprise.
lu this the ambassador was right. It
ia not the way ot English-speaking
nations to say "my brother" with a
dagger hunting the brother's fifth rib.
It is not au Aogle-Suxon boast that its
diplomacy can cheat anybody. Ameri
cans at Paris have stated the wishes ot
their government, and Spain has been
some months finding out that its will
was exaotly what it was ready to fight
(or jf necessary. So discovering tardily,
Spain has made her choice. Neither is
it the diplomacy of the strong against
the weak, as puerile ' critics say. Great
Britain was not weak nor the United
States stroug when the judgment of this
oountry about Venezuela was stated.
The straight Anglo-Saxon way is to say
what one means, prepared to face re
sults. Britieh history has countless
aentences of tbat sort, and Amerioans
love above all things a "square" man.
Wheu Great Britain has ber baok to
the wall the world will be older. Not
this year nor next oan any alliance be
formed that will on re to begin war with
Great Britain, and with a right cause
Great Britain will not be lonely. Amer
icans do not believe tbat the Great
Britain of this generation can be rntibed
into au unjust or foolish war, hut they
are iu the mind to judge for themselves.
When tlioy find the oooasion not unjust
nor foolish, other powers will probably
earn that the Western Republic wiahes
to express its opiuiou in tho interest ot
peace and civilization, aid it ia always
aeier to hear than to refuse.
"Arbiter of natious?' Not any, Amer
icans are not likely to get uiunh Btirred
p in any matter whioh has uot passed
he point ot arbitration, and do uot want
to arbitrate whore questions of human
ly and absolute right are involved. If
there is nothing of that sort in the
mixtion, Aniotionns are at peace and
Hindi eugroeaed in btiHiuees. It that
kind ot question ia involved, Americans
are not arbitrating at all. It is free to

America stated its opinion about Cuba,
If Great Britain bappeus to be the party
plainly iu the right, then American and
British ititineuce, suoh aa it Is, will

is some reason to hope that will insure
