SATURDAY, JULY" 1(1. 1S9S.
AS TO CONDITIONS.
In discussing the war question the
Paris Temps has ihis lo say:
"Spain has to choose between an ar?
rangement with hard conditions at?
tached and absolute bankruptcy. More?
over, it depends upon her to avert by
opportune action grave International
complications, by which she will earn
the gratitude of the civilized world."
Exactly; Spain must either consent
to accept what the Spaniards will call
hard terms or else suffer annihilation.
It took the United States two years to
get started, but now that she has un
deraken the job it is safe to say that
there will be no let up until Spain
goes down on its marrow bones and
sues for peace. Naturally the only
terms upon which the American gov?
ernment can agree to peace will seem
almost insufferable to Spain, but tlie
Dons should remember that they
brought the trouble upon themselves
in the face of repeated warnings and
in spite of friendly advice of nearly
every important power in Europe. Of
course, this is poor consolation, but ft
is difficult to understand what can be
'gained by further postponement of
peace negotiations. Every day the wai?
ls continued will increase the expense
of the war to the United States, a ma?
terial- point that will be considered
when the question of indemnity is
raised, and the resources of Spain aro
decreased. Every sentiment of com?
mon sense and patriotism should dic?
tate peace on any terms that can be.
secured.
We have no doubt that the American
government is ready lo end the war
on a fair basis at any time, but the
longer hostilitcs continue the greater
must be its demand for recompense
when tin: settlement; finally comes.
Courage and devotion in defending
a cause is commendable, but inability
to realize when one is soundly
thrashed is otic of tile earmarks of a
fool.
One important lesson of tin- war
?with Spain is that properly construct?
ed land batteries have little difficulty
in holding their own against naval ves?
sels. In spile of ib.- terrible pounding
Of the thirteen and eight inch shells
and the bothersome cough of tin- dy?
namite cruiser Vesuvius, we are told
that the strategists believe it would be
dangerous to try to pass tie- batteries
at the entrance of Santiago de Cuba.
If this means anything it means that
? no matter how excellent warships may
be they cannot hope to cope with land
fortifications m their own special
sphere. It stands to reason, therefore,
that Instead of spending all of his mon?
ey in warships Uncle Sam should place
some of it in thick emplacements und
modern disappearing guns.
Possibly til.- Americans haven't
Very much "honor," hut they have lots
of gold and they are noi afraid to risk
it oh the honesty and integrity of
their movement, either. For moral note
. tlie difference between the reception of
Uncle Sam's popular loan and tin- one
; that Alphonso's ministers tried to ne
? gotiate.
That Spanish General who wished
with so much fervor that "Spain did
j not have a naval vessel," is probably
. the only Spaniard who is extracting
Very much comfort out of the situation.

Hot Time .
in the Old
Town
is one way of expressing a sense
ol merriment, but the hot time
some house keepers have in
sweltering over hot ranges with
unsatisfactory fires, with wood,
coal, ashes, dirt and annoyance,
is it any wonder they look
weary and broken down ? But
with a modern gas range all this
trouble disappears. The range
will cook anything^it will do it
quickly, it will do its work bet?
ter and more satisfactory than
any coal range ever made. It
will heat water for the bath or
any purpose, and what is more
the gas range is the most econ?
omical cooker on the market.
Gas at $l.ou per thousand feet
is ten cents a hundred. An atver
age family can cook three meals
daily with less than 100 feet of
gas. Ask those using gas and
you will see. Those who have
just found out the benefits are
most enthusiastic. We have
known it so long we wonder
why every body don't see it as
we do, but they will soon see it.
We are seating ranges every
day, and every range set brings
along another sounder of its
praises. Call and see us.
