It may be all right according to
the rules of war but turning the
United States into an organization
of freebooters to capture and con
fiscate the private merchant ves
sels of Spanish citizens is not ex
actly what the people prefer tohave
done What we want our Navy tc
do is to make warfare on combat
ants and capture the armored ships
of ttc Spanish navy and keep them
from doing damage to American
property

Washington May 2 William
Jennings Bryan has written a let
ter to President McKinley offering
his service to the government in any
position in which they may be use
ful The letter is brief but cour
teous and asks for any assignment
the President may see fit to give
him The President is a good deal
puzzled as to what he ought to do
He does not wish to ignore Mr
Bryans patriotic offer or decline
his services as that might seem un
gracious but there is none but mil
itary appointments in his gift and
Mr Bryans experience and tastes
do not run that way He might be
nominated as a brigadier general
but if given such an appointment he
would have to be placed over men
who are much better qualified by
education and experience to com
mand than he and of course the
President could not offer him any
position It is probable that in ac
knowledging the receipt of Mr
Bryans offer the President will
ask him to indicate the capacity in
which he would prefer to serve
