A SPECIAL NEWS SERVICE The Herald has a special and exclusive telegraph aervloe that is unequaled by any paper west or Chicago with the Single exception of the San Francisco Examiner. Not only Is to be found in these pages the fall report of the Associated Press, the greatest newsgathering agency in ihe world, bnt an exclnsive service from special correspondents at San Francisco, Chicago, New York, and Washington, who have exceptional advantages by their connection with the greatest news papers in those cities. The full reports of the Associated Press, day and night, amount in all to an aver age of £5000 words. These are dally supplemented in The Herald by exclnstve dispatches, which vary from 000 to 2000 words per day, WAR AND THE MONEY ISSUE While the Chicago T!me9-Herald Is hysterically shrieking for a declara tion of war, for the unconcealed purpose of preventing the country from being "swept like a cyclone" by the Democracy, under the ban ner of "Free Cuba and Free Silver," the New York Evening Post, quite as stanch an advocate of the gold stand ard, takes the view that a war will al most certainly defeat the plans and pur poses of those who fought and won the battle of the standards In 1896. It does not say in terms —for that would be a damaging, If not fatal, admission —that a war of any considerable duration would force the government to reopen the mints to the free coinage of silver, but it states perfectly self-evident truths when it says that the greatly enhanceu expendi tures of the government necessitated by a war of any magnitude, would com pel the Issue of practica;iy unlimited quantities of irredeemable paper money; that the public debt would be greatly enhanced; that opposition to a resump tion of specie payments, especially to resumption upon a gold basis, would be developed, and that a settlement would most likely be reached quite inimical to the money interest. It points to the fact that whatever progress had been made in the direction of currency reform, and the completion of the contract which the Republican managers made with the bankers in 1896, it has all been lost by the war scare and the preparations made for the national defense; that so long as war or the rumors of war engross the attention of the people and the legis lators, there will be no thought given to currency reform, or to any other phase of national finance. And the Post is honest enough and decent enough to declare that if the loss of the lower house of congress to the Republican party is to be the price of peace, then will it hopefully face the dangers of a free-coinage law. Doubtless many friends of free silver fear the consequences of a foreign war upon the determination of the issue, which many hope -will be final in the next national struggle, but this appre hension has not been permitted to influ ence their attitude regarding the duty of the hour, to cool their patriotic ardor, or diminish their patriotism. Vital as they regar3 the settlement of the money question along correct lines, they rec ognize the greater importance of main taining thei national honor. Country first —the details of its governmental policy afterward. "Repudiationlsts" and "anarchists" as they have been denominated by the two Journals quoted, they are all "Danes" when it comes trt defending the flag. Not one man in all this broad land of the sixty-five hundred thousand who voted for Mr. Bryan has been guiTty of such incendiary utterances as the Times- Herald, in declaring a destructive war preferable to a return to the financial policy under which the country grew and prospered, as did no other before it in history, for a hundred years. TXTT7 TCCTTI? TiTurnm THE ISSUE DIRECT The Wheeler Joint resolution, Intro-1 duced on Thursday, falls little short ot. voicing prevailing American sentiment at this hour, touching the duty of the government regarding Cuba. It is not a declaration of war, but rather a pre amble to a declaration and a formal resolution would logically and necessa rily follow, were it to be adopted by the two houses. It is in the nature of an ultimatum, which could not be with-] drawn or modified by the government 1 wltb- honor. In view of the present haughty atti tude of Spain, and the certainty that it would be regarded at Madrid as a hostile act, it Is tantamount to a decla ration of war. Diplomacy would not long survive the adoption of the resolu tion by a congress that has unanimously appropriated fifty millions of dollars to give force and effect to its decrees. It is in the natpre of a citation to the president, also, that he shall now lay aside any scruples he may have against taking drastic measures to bring Spain to a realising sense of its position and peril, and proceed to carry out the will of the nation. It provides for a "diplomatic" pre sentation of the attitude of the United States, but leaves no room for a diplo matic interpretation of it. It doesn't contemplate protracted diplomatic correspondence. Inferentially, at least, in view of all the circumstances, it accentuates the Impatience of the people of this country to arrive at an understanding with Spain, and conveys no suggestion that any further needless delays will be tol erated. If it be objected to as untimely or premature, in view of the promised early report of the naval board, it should be noted that the responsibility of Spain for the Maine disaster ls wholly elim inated. It assumes that we have ample grounds for Intervention without refer ence to that Incident, a claim that ls conceded by public sentiment at home and a consensus of intelligent popular sentiment abroad. And to that extent it disarms the objections which the ad ministration has been urging against hasty action touching the loss of the Maine. There should be shown no disposition to cut off debate upon a measure so full of portent, and yet a vote upon It ought to be reached before the official report of the naval board Is presented. That reporFls likely to throw some light upon the cause of the disaster, but It is extremely Improbable that its findings as to the responsibility will be conclu sive. It will not be likely to change the convictions of the people regarding it one way or the other. We can appeal to the world with great er assurances of approval if we base our action upon broad humanitarian grounds —protection to Americans and American interests, a speedy cession of barbarous methods of warfare and respect for the rights of non-combatants. These rea sonable demands denied, let us hail manifest destiny—peace to a devastated , land, independence to a people who have thrice earned it by their valor. THE SENATE SHOULD STAND PAT There is a well-grounded belief that the president desires an early adjourn ment of congress. General Grosvenor's denial to the contrary notwithstanding. ' We have had few presidents who did not think they could manage the affairs of the-.country far better without con gress. One declared, upon occasion, that he had "no policy to pursue against the will of the people," but he didn't really mean it. There is a considerable stretch of territory between the White House and the Capitol, and usually that differ ence between the president and congress. Only one branch is at this time under control of the Republicans, and it is far from being a unit on the Cuban ques tion, on the currency question, or on the Hawaiian question. Reed is the czar that he ever was, and the rules which the majority have seen fit to in voke to control legislation are as strin gent as they ever were. But even the rules and the autocratic Interpretation of them by the speaker are not suffi ciently potent to keep the Cuban ques tion out of the house at last. Public sentiment finally commanded recogni tion there, and the people have at least had one inning. Mr. Reed's will has, after all, some limitations, and the pre cipitation of the f Cuban crisis has given them definition. How willing he may be to carry out the further wish of the president for an early adjournment, or how successful he may be In that be half should he undertake it, remains to be seen. The interests of the party in the fall elections will not be overlooked, and it is generally safe to assume that the caucus conclusion will govern Mr. Reed. But It is different with the senate. And to that body must the people look for a check to any movement having for its object the subordination of patriotic to partisan plans. If early adjournment is made a party issue, the duty of the senate will be plain. By the vote on the defense bill all party lines were dissi pated. To re-erect them, in the face of the Cuban crisis, would be unpatriotic. Congress should not adjourn while th» issue is undecided. The senate should stand pat. A BIGGER MAN THAN TOM REED A special dispatch from Washington to our esteemed Republican contempo rary, the Times,- outlines the program to be followed in pushing the Hawaiian annexation resolution through congress. At the end comes the following signifi cant paragraph: The administration, it is acknowl edged, will take an active part In the fight, and President McKinley ls be lieved to be a bigger man with the lower house than the speaker. While it has been well understood that the annexation of Hawaii is an admin istration measure, the bold, barefaced announcement that the authority and in fluence of the president ls to be actively exerted on the members of congress Is one of a number of occurrences that have tended to lower the respect in which Mr. McKinley is held by reason of his high position. When the presi dent of the United States descends to the level of a lobbyist, it is time to de mand an accounting of his stewardship. It is a very serious question whether the president of the United States has a legal right to take the part ot aa in LOS ANGELES HERALD. SATURDAY MORNIISFG, MARCH 1% 18*8 teres ted party In matters of this kind. Certainly he has not the moral right It Is only a short time ago that the very Republicans who are now holding dal liance with the president on the Ha waiian question were roundly abusing Mr. Cleveland for his policy in attempt ing to force his peculiar financial views upon congress. The president of the United States ought to be above such tactics. He has an enormous patronage at his disposal, and he cannot afford to allow even the suspicion that he uses It In behalf of hie pet schemes. The annexation of Hawaii is not a political question, and Mr. McKinley is supposed to be the president of the whole United States. WELL DONE, BOYS The national guard of California has reason to feel proud and happy over the report of Captain Carrlngton, U. S. A., to the secretary of war, covering the operations of the past year. Both of ficers and men are highly commended by the inspector from the regular army. Here are a few excerpts from the report: The encampments, were much better than I have ever seen In the California National Guard. The discipline was good in all and excellent in at least two. All companies have made great im provement In close order drill, and with the exception of two or three are entire ly proficient, many drllllngquite as well as .companies of regular troops. The intelligent manner in which the field maneuvers were executed and! subse quently reported and discussed was highly satisfactory and showed that great Interest was taken by officers and men. Captain Carrlngton recommends to regimental commanders the practice of guard duty while In barracks, and to the secretary of war that the old Spring- field rifles now in the hands of the troops be replaced by new model weapons; also that the national appropriation be in creased from $400,000 to $1,000,000. It is safe to say that whenever the national guard of the United States ls called upon to render service to the coun try the California militia will not be found wanting In anything that goes to make good, efficient soldiers. What a strange medley of contradic tions the dally press report affords the student of contemporaneous events! Thus, in our last issue, were assembled in parallel columns, in suggestive Juxta position, the relation of Cuban sufferings by a United States senator, from per sonal observations on tfic ground; the recital of the woes of the patriots on the Island, and their heroic declaration of "Independence or death," and the boast of the l Spanish General Blanco, that the present generation will never see another banner than that of his country at the entrance of the Gulf of Mexico—"that banner representing civ ilization, progress, liberty, humanity and religion, eternal, like that of the first American nation." Discounting the sin cerity of these several utterances as we may, and making every possible allow ance for "the point of view," who Is there that is able to conceive of an honorable settlement without a conflict? "Independence or death!" Is the oft repeated answer of the Cuban patriots to any and every suggestion of a peace based upon the recognition) of Spanish sovereignty over the island. It ls the dictum of the insurgent hosts, officially proclaimed by the recognized repre sentatives In this country, the junta headed by Thomas Estrada Palma. When this authority declares there is no way to compel acceptance of auton omy except by force of arms. It ls full time for this country to withdraw its support of that policy, for, come what may, the American people will never use force to coerce the Cubans into a hateful peace. The steady advance, during the past few days, in the quotation of Spanish is on the bourses of Madrid, London and Paris is full of sinister sugestion. The value of these securities is largely contingent upon the success of Spain's maintaining her sovereignty over Cuba, the resources of which are depended upon to meet the interest for a long time to come, if not ultimately the prin cipal of the war debt. It Is obvious that the stock gamblers of the continent are staking their money upon such an out come. The acquittal of Patrolman Hiriart does not reflect credit upon the police commission—or rather upon the majority who whitewashed that individual. It is obvious that Hiriart's "pull" is the only thing that keeps him on the force. The people of LO3 Angeles are unfortunate indeed that the retention of a policeman is dependent upon the length and strength of his "pull," rather upon good character and efficiency. But it is the public money that pays the bills. What's the odds? Mr. F. Hopkinson Smith, llteratteur and author, has also fallen into the un pardonable error of supposing that cul ture ls distinctively a New England plant. He visited Kansas City the other day, and expressed astonishment that "Quo Vadis" had been in such demand there, the book men advising him that they had been unable to keep pace with it. Southern Pacific earnings, first seven months of the fiscal year, show a net increase of over $2,000,000, compared with the same period of 1897, mainly credited to local traffic. Doesn't the fact warrant the road in relaxing a trifle its rigid through rate on perishable fruit, in the interest of a great and growing in dustry. The powder industry in Colorado is enjoying a veritable boom, the works at Vera Cruz having this week received orders for three and a quarter million pounds. But the Dingley law must share the credit with the Spaniards for this extraordinary activity. The report of the naval board will be made in a day or two, and then the people; sw resume their Judgment, re eeotly suspended by request of the press dent's cabinet, who wanted a monopoly of the Judging business. The Chicago Times-Herald is much exercised lest this country shall fall Into the handa of the shylocks. Hinte like this from Mr. Xohlsaat serve to relieve the sombre aspect which national affairs have lately taken on. The rates which the Hawaiian Cable company proposes to charge on press dispatches, about $160 a column, will bar all but the yellow Journals. Host of the stuff originating there Is to them cheap at any price. The general defflclency bill will contain an item deemed adequate for the con tinuance of the federal fish stations in this state. But should there not be some thing also for extensions and better ments? East-bound rates on California com modities, by the Panama route, were yesterday raised fully 60 per cent, being In many cases prohibitive. And thus are nature's generous benefactions mini mized. Mr. Harrison can't scold himself Into the presidency again, though he may try ever so hard. The tax-dodgers con stitute a pretty large fraternity in themselves, but there are others. Gates to tbe Klondike appear to open both ways, and our dispatches this morning: foreshadow a veritable stam pede from Dawson southward In June and July. Efforts to make the United States the scapegoat for the failure of the home rule policy in Cuba will be abortive. The thing was beaten before it started. Eleven-thousand-ounce ore is pretty fair, even for a Southern California mine. It is claimed for the Good Hope, in the Ferris district. London is fairly slopping over with the American brand of patriotic enthu siasm, calculated to put New York and Boston to the blush. Senator Gallinger characterizes what he saw In Cuba as "simply Indescriba ble." A Victor Hugo would probably not undertake it After all, shouldn't we reserve a little sympathy for a Spanish minister resi dent in this country? Old Glory now floats over the Ama zonas. The Amazonas is big and the flag glorious. THE VICTOR Three riders raced on the broad highway: The devil, a woman, a man; And spurring- his wheel, laughed the devil gay: "Come, follow me, ye who can!" Three riders raced, and the stakes were sin. Over the broad highway; And the devil was second In coming Ift— For the woman led the way. —Tom Mason in Life. CALIFORNIA OPINION Perkins and Grant U. S. Grant, Jr. (why junior at this time), for the United States senate. Why? Be cause he is the son of his father, and for no other reason. Now, we do not deny that Mr. Grant is a good, honorable gentleman; but the fact remains that he is about as well fitted for the senate as ls a wooden man. What would be his strength or influ ence In such a body? Absolutely nothing. Even Perkins is a giant compared with Grant in such a place, and certainly Per kins ls near enough to zero.—San Bernar dino Free Press.

THE PUBLIC PULSE (The Herald under this heading prints communications, but doee not assume re | spenslblllty for ths sentiments expressed. Correspondents are requested to cultivate brevity as far as Is consistent with the proper expression of their views.) From a Veteran To the Editor of tbe Dos Angeles Herald: I am very much impressed with two cdl- tortals in your excellent paper of even date. I refer to tne one entitled "JL Holy President" and "Veterans Disgusted." Aa an old Union soldier I can say that I fully subscribe to both. We were disgusted with Cleveland's attitude toward tbe men who took their lives in their hands in tbe days of war, yet after all we were Impressed with the belief that in most cases be acted conscientiously. We believe be honestly desired to reward meritorious soldiers, as he desired to guard against pensioning tbe unworthy. But the present administration after riding into power on the old soldiers' votes, inclines to turn the back ot its band to them all except tbe favored few. Why? In order to get into the swim ot what it considers the popular clamor against pensioning the remaining unpen sioned men who ottered their lives to save the country.. But two.and a halt years hence tbe McKinley administration will find out its mistake, if not before. The vet erans are, aa you say, thoroughly disgusted with the commissioner ot pensions for his insulting and ungentlemanly bearing toward the men who made) It possible for him to occupy bis present position. Tha there are a few men drawing pensions who are not Justly entitled to them I have little doubt, but on the other hand I know o good and grand men who many times over earned a pension, and are in need of the small pittance, yet are denied the consid eration because the present administration In its blindness believes it is popular to do so. While war ls to be deprecated, and I earnestly hope it may be honorably avert ed, I am In full sympathy with the senti ment of your editorial, and am ready, with you to Inquire who has asked McKinley to engage in an "unholy war?" With more than a half million men, women and chil dren butchered in sight of our shores, women outraged and children brained—all stretching out their hands to this strong Christian nation for help, and that help dented for three long, weary years, and the weakling in the White House insulting the humanity of the civilised globe in say ing he will not be "responsible for an un holy war!" Why? Is It because Boss Han na, who speaks for Wall street, demands It? This great Republican boss, who ls now undergoing investigation charged with corruption in buying his way to the United States senate, who, I believe, has taken up his abode In the White House, and who everybody knows is the power behind the throne in this administration, has repeat edly said there would be no war with Spain. Qod grant that this may be true, if war can be honorably averted, but if nothing but the great trusts and monopolies, and the grinding money power that haß Inter ests In Cuba, ls all that keeps It back, I am sure I speak the sentiments of the old soldiers who wore the blue and the gray when I say, let\lose the dogs of war at once and rescue the helpless and outraged pr>men and children of Cuba, who are raising their skeleton hands for bread. In the last campaign the cry was: "Elect McKinley and Cuba will be free within sixty days." It was the cry of the dem agogues and the deceiver. It was insin cere; but It helped to elevate a weak man to the presidency. More than a year has passed by; congress has done everything within its power to strengthen his hands, even to the placing of J60,000,000 at his dis posal, but he hesitates. The civilized world is looking on and asking: "Why does not the United States Intervene and settle this matter that Is* pressing against its very doors?" But poor McKinley virtually says: "The money power won't let me!" What a spectacle for angels and men! UNION SOLDIER. Avalon, March 17th. Mr. Barlow's Speech To the Editor of the Los Angelea Herald: Representative Barlow of this district made one of the notable speeches in the house of representatives upon the Teller resolution, which, coming from the senate, was defeated in the lower branch of con gress. Mr. Barlow declared that this Teller resolution was but the reiteration of what is already law, duly enacted by the legis lative branch of the government and which it ls the duty of the executive branch to carry out to the letter, without evasion, distortion or strained construction. The very fact that it has been found nec essary to frame the resolution was a decla ration that the executive branch of the government had set at defiance the plain decree of the body which alone ls invested by the constitution with authority to enact laws, and that it has usurped a dangerous power. Mr. Barlow asserted that the act of the executive department was revolutionary in its nature and anarchistic in its tend ency; that It had the appearance of a con certed plan to plunder the people and fill the coffers of a set of designing specu lators; that such a course is a blow at lib erty and equality and a step in the direc tion of aristocracy and class favoritism; that the culmination would be anarchy and revolution. The declared intent of the administra tion to pay in gold ls, he said, in defiance of the constitution because the constitution specifies silver and gold as| the particular metals of which money must be coined. No power was conferred upon congress to declare that either metal should not be money or that special power op value should be given to either. If the executive branch of the government can In this In stance override! the legislative branch and the constitution, where Is Its prerogative to stop? What of our Institutions are safe from its invasions? What ls our safeguard against autocracy or anarchy? The monometallic system has no place among free Institutions. It ls the creature and associate of monarchy, of autocracy and imperialism. It ls the deadly enemy of liberty and the destroyer of equality. It Ib a creation to perpetuate the power of a favored class, to hold in subjection the wealth producing masses. X.
