Address changed as often as desired fr Spain Evidently Parleying. jo The character of the annwer from tl< Spain to the President's note laying: at dotrn peaee terms Is not known, and m< will not be koown to the public until re the conference between the French am- jd bassador end the President results In gf some conclusion. Although no official hj Intimation of the status of matters is (U obtainable, the presumption Is that the communication from the Spanish cabi- ^ net Is not a final answer, but either a dc counter-proposition or a request for a ^ ruiier siaieinent on cunaiu yuiuw tu the President's note. n( This Is all contrary to the assumption n( yetterday that the Spanish government CT bad yielded every point Doubtless the real situation is that Spain Is parleying. w Thts will not, by any means, be per- w znltted to continue long, the best evl- rl dence of which is that there Is no cessa- Oi tlon of war movements on the part of d( our government. th The Inevitable Is that Spain will come m to the terms of the United States, and ca whatever delays may occur In getting on foot the actual negotiations of a th peace treaty will be to the further dls- a/ advantage of the Spanish government uIn the absence of any definite Informa- j,, tton as to the points of disagreement. If Kl there are any, all reports of the precise {r character of the Spanish reply are mere Q( speculations. Peace will come and come soon. The ^ very logic of the situation points to that conclnslon of the negotiations, and the r continued aggressiveness of the United 1 States Is evidence that the President in- lc tends to make no further concession. It 81 Is probable that to-day will witness the tc conclusion of the conference between the representative of the Spanish gov- P' ernment and the President, which will he either an ultimatum by the Presl- 01 dent or a surrender of Spain on what- al ever points are at issue. No military b: operations are being restrained, and the a< movement of troops for Puerto HIco hi previously ordered is being carried out. c< .TtiriiHnff from the Washington dls- IT patches pcace Is assured, and the re need p be no anxiety. It Is probable that the tl war may end without the firing of an- jr other gun, or at least without another #p tattle of conscqucnce, unless the crisis a| at Manila may precipitate the capture tI, of the city in advance of an armistice fi( pending a peace treaty. Let us all hope p that peace will come, as expected, with- u la a few days. rt The President's Vindication. cl Under the heading "A McKinley Vic- hi tory," the Washington Post, which Is w not a party paper, calls attention to a 'r nhBfio of the war developments which deeply Impressed Itself upon the mind* of the public some time ago, and Iff becoming a subject of frequent comment. The Post refers to the fact that among C the great Incidents of the war, and quite ai aB fortunate for the United States as rt any of them, history will net down the tl victory that President McKlnley won In Hi the text of the declaration of war. fr The public will recall how, during the Jo debates In the two houses of Congress, fr there developed a strong following of ea those who contended for the recognl- tli Ion of the Cuban republic. The conser- c( atlve ienatom who stood out against p; thin proposition were denounced by the ?t jingoes the coimtry ovor, while Presfl- a! dent McKlnley woa enlarged with at- is templing to delay action. It was the r?! main point between tho fiouse and sen- ni ate, the majority of tho latter ocemlng el to place great faith In the so-called Cu- it ban republic and Btood out for rccog- th nltlon. In the editorial referred to above the Jb Po?t atat<? a fact which the critic* of lh th6 conservative policy of the admlnls- il tratlon have doubtless come to realise k (ully during the progress of tho war, pi Tl IXJiUUAilU J htch they denuded on the bail* of a icognltlon of the dieted republic of c aba, wbea It aay* that "it haa rarely 1 ippened to thl? republic to be ao 'much 1 idebted to ttw forethought and firm- t saa of a Chief Maciatrate in any alnrle > nertency aa It la to frwident McKIn- 1 y for hla ineiateooe on the elimination 1 the. recognition of the Independence c ' the republic of Cub* Id the declara? of war." Furthermore, continues p le Poat, It rarely happened to the g reaMent or any other public man to ire ao thorough and prompt a vlndlca- tl in nf rwllrv aa th? M'?nfa nf i. t few weeks have brought to Presl- ~ ?t McKlnley. Those who recall the debates on the h lestlon of eliminating the recognition 11 ature of the declaration of war will 11 ^predate this fact Events have de toped enough to serve ae a rebuke, aa 11 le Post says, to the majority of sena- t rs who supported the supposed repub- 1 5 in Cuba, as well as a rebuke to the * iwspapers representing the Jingo ele- * ent, who denounced conservative lead- * s and the President a--"peace at any P ice" advocates and in other terms. b be same events vlndloating the Prest?t have proven the lack of foresight v >d wisdom by the recognition advo- s ites. Our contemporary says: 8 fcnd the house of representatives comes for a share of the honor* of the victory >n under the Inspiration of the President, i that, as on several other occasions in cent years, the house showed a wise i< nservatlsm that was conspicuously lack- t' g In the action desired and deeljcned by e senate. Had the house been leas deter- u ined to stand by the President, the gov- n nment of the United States would have ii rpetrated a gigantic blunder, fraught b Ith humiliation to this country and disss- r in ludht r or uio vud&h repumic ho d jquently lauded by senators was and is a ? yth, and the Cuban insurgents, judged at " elr best, are not the kind of men to ? hose rule the people of Cuba could be it nsistently and safely trusted as the re- si t of a war for humanity. We ore not now hearing much from e statesmen who were eloquently eulo- j* alng the Cuban republic which the tl cognition is ta declared existed some- f< here. Not-only is the President's pol- * y vlndlcatd, but there Is a general sen- i nent of confidence in the fact that the o< able government which the United ates stand? pledged to establish in tj aba will come under the wise super- d slon of the administration which had ^ e foresight to see the breakers ahead tl the rash policy that was advocated, a: td stood firm to save the country from jj situation which would have been of a K ost embarrassing nature. It was a ri eat victory that was won T>y the Pres- T ent, with the aid of the majority of the ?use of representatives and the eena- b ro who stood "by the administration. J m tj Unjustifiable Assumptions. tt There 1s nothing under the heavens p te unto the tenacity with which our [end, the Register, sticks to the yellow ^ urnal falsehoods and misrepresent a- 0 jns concerning President McKlnley's b tirade with reference to the acquire- f' ent of the Philippine islands and their ^ tcntloo. No act nor word of the Pres- & ent has ever Justified any one In con- a ruing what his policy would be, until ? s reply to Spain's overtures was given H It K Public men who advocate the posses- ? jn permanently of the Philippines un- s< r certain conditions do not speak for ? e President, but for themselves, fake fwspaper publications to the contrary ^withstanding. These men are gov- ^ ned by their belief that an expansion G 1 American Influence and commerce S ill be one of the logical results of the d ar. As to a government policy of ter- ^ forlnl pxiMisIon and conauPAt in tho m< rlent, tfoere is no evident* that such a t! ^parture has ever<been contemplated toy ? e administration. The President's de- 3k! anda on Spain certainly do not lndiite an opening for such a policy. t The country has felt all along that In v le settlement of the problems to come ? i a result of the war the situation a ouid be solved -with the wisdom which b characterized the solving of all 1' ave problems confronting the Nation om its foundation and In the conduct E the war up to the present time. 0 Incidentally it may be well to note q lat in an article chiefly notable for its t 'petition of exploded misrepresenta- I1 ons concerning an administration pol- ^ y which had no existence, and In Its reintment of a statement in this paper Jj the effect that the Register had re- t! ectcd on the President's honesty of n irpose, our contemporary has convict- J 1 itself of inconsistency by referring in le paragraph to the "Ignominious ti sandonment or tne imperialistic poucy ~ / the administration," and In another g imlttlng that the President has ex- tl [bleed "backbone" In adopting his J ?urse. There is not a newspaper In the n nlted States of standing that has been r ullty of half the misrepresentation of n 10 President which has found Its way J ito the columns of our contemporary. U he severest of his critic? at the start * re coming to recognize the great heart. ic courage, the cool judgment, the oon- o irvatlsm and the patriotism of the resident. In our last great national ouble Lincoln was so abused and ml*- r fprcnented by his political enemies and j, ironic critics. History has vindicated n lm, as It will vindicate the Executive JJ bo Is faithfully carrying out the duty u n posed upon him by the represent*- p ves of the people. a m e: Posiibly a Libel on Our Troops. n A letter from El Caney, where 1R.000 " uban refuge In a rtnrvlnif condition p e assembled, and where the American cf' iffulars are dolnff thpir best to keep m icm alive by relieving their wants with f; mlted means, reports that volunteers * nm certain regiments are accepting welry, money and other valuables tl om ntarvlng women and old men In rchflniPA tii?* tnnA frum omnnir rn i>ns. The statement Is made by a staff ^ rrosponder.t of tho Pittsburgh DIs- 1 itch und he names the regiments nnd ate? which theee American soldiers ore ** leged to represent. If his statement true Itta a disgraceful rovolatlor* and T (fleets little credit upon the regiments imed. If It Is not true somebody c lould be made to suffer for tho libel. Is nlmost beyond belief, and we trust^ le story l? false and can *>e proven so. V For the Hake nf humanity our country ?j prosecuting (his war. In It to be puhihed In our own country, for conmimpon In JSurope, that American volun?er soldiers, no matter how few, arr rcylng upon tho want* of starving jj romen and old men driven to oar amps for protection from starvation? Ve cannot believe it. Investlgatidn hould develop the truth or falsity of he charge, and if the statement* are iscertalned to foe unfounded prompt astice should be done the aedtised men. Ve very much doubt that the charge an be made good. The Americans havtag given the PhllipIne insurgent* an immense advantage ver the Spaniards, who are practically at lielr mercy, why not withdraw our troops the American object, tho destruction of lie Spanish fleet, having long ago been acompliahed?and let Aguinaldo win his own idependence? Spain can never whip him. Register. But, having given these advantage*, as not the United State* placed Its^f nder obligations to protect defenseless anocenta against what might occur hould Manila fall into the hands of the asurgenta before the terms in the reaty of peace providing for the situaion are carried Into effect? It la too rave a condition of affairs to be disused of without recognizing that epilation to humanity. Aguinaldo will robably ht? to win his Independence, ut there are other questions to settle efore troops can be withdrawn. The rar will end happily for the United tates, and to its credit, and without the hlrking of one single responsibility. STATE PEEKS GLEANINGS. Judge Thomas- J.
