Some of the political dilllc.ulties in
volved in Cuha.ii intervention already
appear. The insurgent government of
Cuba seems to have resolved to be
taken at once into President McKin
ley's counsels. The people of the
United States acting by their Presi
dent have entirely disregarded the
political situation in Cuba, excepting
as it was involved in relieving the
starving and downtrodden Cubans and
tho expulsion of the Spaniards. The
President evidently has no abiding
faith in the political morality of the
revolutionists. He refused to recog
nize the Cuban government, because
ho could not. and m cannot trust it.
Congress under the popular movement
has taken more "stock" in it than
the President has. "Remember the
Maine" is a grand cry, but it does
not make the ignorant revolutionists
any better than they are. They are
still cruel and bigoted, and proud by
inheritance, and will, sooner or later
refuse any gratitude to the Americans
for the splendid succor now lavishly
given to them. No doubt General Lee
has made President McKinley familiar
with the class of people he is to deal
with. The dispatches indicate trouble
between Gen. Gomez and the Junta in
New York. That party among the
insurgents that gets the ear of the
American Government will handle the
American coin which will be used for
political or warlike purposes.
The wisdom of the President in re
fusing to be placed under, or be bound
by, the so-called Cuban government
was evidently the result of a very care
ful examination of the situation.
It may safely be predicted, that the
American Government will have, in
the long run, more annoyance in deal
ing with the Cuban rebels than with
Spanish fleet.
There seems to be some reluctance
in Washington to allow a very large
gift of guns and ammunition to the
rebels. These may be used by them
in destroying the Spaniards, in the
first place, and than in annoying the
Americans, if they refuse to follow the
dictates of the Cuban government.
The dispatches indicate that the
Spaniards have chosen to cross the
Atlantic, and fight the Americans near
their own base. If this was their plan,
the battle has probably been fought
by this time. If fought it was not a
Cavite affair. The more serious Amer
ican journals admit- the superiority
of the Spanish cruisers, over the Amer
ican cruisers in speed, but hardly an
equality in battleships. It is said by
the European "naval critics that the
Spanish fleet has been imperfectly
trained in squadron practice. If it is
true, the battle will turn on this
important point of fleet evolution.
During the naval fight between the
Chinese and Japanese on the Yalu,
the volumes of smoke from the rapid
firing so enveloped the ships that
systematic evolutions were made
more by instinct and habit than by
signals. At times, it was impossible
to read signals. In such critical mo
ments training and practice tell.
Popular Veteran Once .More En
rolled With Uncle Sam.
The veteran Dr. John S. McGrew,
father of annexation and a man who
earned promotion in the Union Army
darinc the civil war in the United
States, may, after a respite of more
than thirty years, again go into camp
and see action. From A. D. McCook,
secretary of the Volunteer National
Reserve of the United States, Dr. Mc
Grew has received the following let
ter: Washington, D. C, May 1898.
Colonel John S. McGrew, Honolulu,
Hawaii.
My Dear Colonel: Your patriotic
letter just received.
In reply will say that the National
Volunteer Reserve is to be called out
after the National Guard, and to take
the place of the National Guard, when
it is called out.
I sincerely trust that there will be
no necessity for another call, but will
enroll your name, and in case your
services' are needed, they will be call
ed upon.
With warmest regards, believe me,
very sincerely yours.
A. D. M'COOK.
Tarn McGrew. son of the Doctor,
is now a member of the famous
Seventh Regiment of New- York.
War Permits.
The Equitable IJfe Assurance Socie
ty of New York, one of the best known
and at the same time one of the largest
and wealthiest institutons extant is
to the front with new inducements to
insurers. This is nothing more or less
than a free war permit issued to offi
cers of the regular army and navy
corns, officers and privates in the
National Guard, Naval Reserve and
volunteers.
Mr. Bruce Cartwright, general agent
for the Hawaiian Islands stands ready
to give particulars in detail and it is
reasonable to presume that many will
take advantage of the liberal induce
ment.

There are very favorable indications
for the passage of the joint resolution
in favor of the annexation of these
islands, in the House of Representa
tives. What action the Senate will
take, when it reaches that body, is of
course uncertain, owing to the delays
which will obstruct its passage.
If the American Executive directs
the transports to call here, next week,
it puts Congress in the attitude of
accepting all of the advantages of an
nexation, without legally recognizing
them. We have been and now are,
perfectly willing to abandon neutrality
in favor of the United States, but,
after the advantages which accrue to
the United States from our course, it
would seem as if annexation should
bo made by them, in their own in
terest. The correspondence regarding the
Carter Memorial is to be regretted.
It indicates the existence of some
bitter feeling towards the Legislature.
Whether or not this feeling is justi
fied by its conduct need not now be
discussed. Men with high sentiments
can, if they choose to, gradually re
move all misunderstandings. In some
sense, we stand in the presence of the
dead,- Soft and measured words only
nonappropriate. Any appearances of
anger only bring sorrow to hearts
that are yet in the shadows of the
Valley.
