Protection the True Issue.
"A Moutibllcnn Since 'Fremont" con
tributes to our New York namesake a
letter containing some timely advice
to voters in the Hemiblicun party.
The point with which lie. introduce
Ills communication is that unless Ite
tniMleans. are careful Mr. Cleveland
will force the next cunipalKii to be
fought on an issue of his own chonsliiK",
Instead of on tlit- one which he and his
party most dread, namely, the protec
tive tariff.
"After three years of pusillanimous
disgrace abroad, unci linuut-ut groplnx
unions disasters at home, Mr. Cleve
land." this writer observes, "has sud
denly treated us to a. display of be
lated vltforover the lll'ly-year-old Ven
ezuela dispute, and at once the whole,
country Is allaine. Next, comes another
crusade for Ouba, and congress Is
ulluine UKuin." What he wauls to
know Is whctlu-r Air. Cleveland Is to
be "allowed and actually helped to
bunco the people after this stale, old
Deiuooratlo fashion Into slilftlni? the
real ground of i-ontest? Is it not worth
while for voters, before thoosiiifr their
dtdegates, to utop for a. moment ami
consider what It is they really need to
Vote about, till.- fall?"
Falling lnto u. rellective mood, tho
writer iisseits, what Is everywhere ad
mitted, that "four years ago this was
the most prosperous country In the
world. Its credit was ut the holiest,
lis currency wan everywhere current.
Its internal development, its advance
in diffused wealth and other elements
of a higher civilization, its productive
industry, und Its internal and external
trade, were enormous beyond prece
dent. It paid the highest wages in the
world, und it pave Its workiiiKiiien the
greatest leisure and the greatest com
fort." Hut
The very plenitude of their prosperity
IntoxiraU'd litem. The woi kinsmen were
no well oft' themselves thin I hey fancied
Ihe inuiiiit'aeiiir-rs intirt be loo well olT,
ind resolved to vote lor a change, which
Democrats subl would strip -their employ,
ei-s, und Kive them more. They voted ac
cordingly, und Instantly icaiiKurntcd the
worst panic and pro-It aeteil season of the
most widespread anil disastrous hard
times the country has ever seen. Kvery
election from that day lo this has only
broiiKht out more -and more clearly the
fact that I hey have discovered their nils
take. Kvery election lias shown that Ihe
one 1hlny they want Is to undo their mis
lake In inn! Ket back to where they
were. Now what, dues this mean'.' Docs
it mean 'that I lie politicians ore properly
interpret hut the popular want when they
play Into Cleveland's hands by raising u
hullaballoo over I lie Monroe doctrine,
which everybody supports and i-'imland
will never resist; or by HtartiiiK u new
llllbtlsteriii!; crusade nlioiit Cuba, which
everybody kuowa we must et some day,
and knows also that we ought to avoid
taking us louts: as possible?
The author's real purpose, however,
appears In the paragraph which fol
lows: If the one thine the people want is to get
back to where they were, a natural re
sponse to their desire would hnvf been
the nomination of Oeneral Harrison, lie
himself prevents thai. What Is Ihe next
most natural resonsc? Is it r.ot the nom
ination of the man whose very name ex
presses to every voter 'the system which
was abandoned in IMC, and which he wants
now lo restore as quickly s he can?
Nami'S In a popular canvass are nome
times the most powerful of nrKuments.
Kvery voter now knows th it four years
nso what was derisively called "McKin
leyism" meant lo Mm personally hlirh
wses, and meant to the country protec
tion and prosperity. Kvery voter knows
that the mistaken abandonment of It
broiarht panic, lower wages, less con
sumption, lone-continued hard times.
Why Fhould not Republicans now brush
away .Mr. Cleveland's cheap Imitations of
old Democratic -devices to make the coun
try foret their blunders at home and
abroad by reviving; th war spirit; and at
once clarify and Inspire the canvass by
putting forward the one name that means,
to every voter in the Cnlon. a return to
the old system, which nave prosperity,
nml the abandonment of which broiixht
disaster? Why help Cleveland to confuse
and bewilder voters by ourselves trvlna
to elevate side issues on which the party
Is not united, and neglect' the one issue
on which It Is not only absolutel - unite !
but on which it now counts hosts- of sup
porters In the ranks of the Democracy It
self? The very name of McKinley would
brina; the rnmpaJtrn o the true fighting.
K round, and furnish inspiration for the
light.
In other words It would be a nomina
tion that "would make its own argu
ment and a canvass which would run
Itself." This no doubt in all true. We
have bo opinion to exoress concerning
the mention of McKinley while Penn
sylvania herself has a candidate ac
tively in the Held. State pride, and the
thought thut however much tho name
of the distinguished Ohloan may by po
litical accident be ldentltled with tho
subject of protection, thcro are yet
others who are easily his peers in de
votion to the protective policy and per
haps his superiors In varied statesman
ship and practical business knowledge,
constrain us for the present to with
hold from this particular part of the
foregoing quotation our unqualified ap
proval. At the same time we fully concur In
the thought that it is the privilege and
more than that, the duty of the Re
publican party to choose Its own issue
and to make its tight on its own
grounds, Irrespective of the diverting
devices of the opposition, ltepublieans
hold In their hands the cards that will
win; it Is their lead, und the highest
trump Is dearly culled for by the loglu
of the situation.
We trust that Consul General Wil
liams, our representative ot Havana,
who has ho suddenly resigned, la not
afraid.
Cuba in the House.
The Cuban resolutions yesterday
adopted in the house at Washington by
a viva voce vote differ from the resolu
tions passed on Friday in the senate
solely In that they are more emphatic.
They "recite," says the United Fress
abstract, "that in the opinion of con
gress a state of war exists in Cuba, the
parties to which are entitled to bellig
erent rights; deplore the destruction of
life and property in the island, believe
that a solution of the trouble lies in the
establishment of a government by the
choice of the Cuban people, and con
clude with the declaration that the
United States should protect American
Interests there by intervention if neces
sary." The senate resolutions made no ref
erence to possible Intervention and
mildly preferred the "good ollices of the
United States In the attempt to secure
from Spain a recognition of Cuba's In
dependence." The last clause in the
house resolutions brings much nearer
than heretofore the possibility of an
open break with Spain; but It ia clear
ly within our lawful and rightful pre
rogative as a nation, and If the utter
ance of It should lead to war, the con
lllct could be entered npon by the
American people with a clear con
science and in the gratifying knowledge
that Its motive would receive the un
hesitating approval of every Revolu
tionary sire, from Washington down to
the humblest private In the continental
army. .
An Indication that n good tone of
politics prevails In Wyoming county
Is found lu the fact thut J. H. Swisher,
of TiinkhnnnocU, is put forward by non
partisan Democrats us a candidate for
Ihe nomination for representative. Mr.
Swisher Is district passenger nsji-nt of
the Central Kailrnad of New Jersey
and has headquarters In this city.
There is a hope left for hlyli-toiied
politics when such men are sought for
and are not themselves sct-kiiitj- otlice.
The only objection to Mr. Swisher is his
Democracy.
Silver's Real friends.
One hopeful fact lu connection with
tin; currency discussion Is that no lte
puhlicaii leader or newspaper, kh far
as our observation goes, has turned en
tirely nv.-fiy from silver. Whilt u ispec
llle declaration has been called for
.b'iluinir the Iteiuiblican party to op
pose Hie experiment of free ami unlini
Itid silver coinage by the I'nlted Stated
ulcnie. It has al.'io been without excep
tion admitted that our goviriiiuent
should exert lis utmost Inllueiiee to se
cure the concurrence of the hiof Eu
ropean nations in an international
agreement restoring gold and silver to
a legul parity and admitting both met
als to coinage on equal terms.
In other words, while the majority of
Itepublicutis doubt the ability of the
United Slates to uplift silver indepen
dently, at any such rntin as M- or 10
lo 1, they believe it to be the duty of
the American government to exercise
Its good ollices for the silver cnuse in
ternationally, and have no sympathy
whatever with the monometallic extre
mists who wish to put the whole bur
den of the world's currency on gold
alone. This attitude is not all that the
silver enthusiasts desire, but it is more
than they can expect from tho Cleve
land wing of tho Democracy, which Is
for the gold standard unreservedly. It
means that If a Republican administra
tion Is Installed In power next March,
the voice of the United States will be
friendly and not hostile to silver, as it
has been during the Cleveland regime.
And why, Indeed, should Republicans
oppose silver? Does riVit half our metal
lic weulth lie in western diver mines?
is it policy for us to try to depreciate
our own possessions? Is It not rather
a part of the protective creed that the
owner of a silver mine should receive
4s goodly a share of the governmental
protection as the owner of a gold one?
We may not see our way clear to con
cede at this time all that the silver
men think they ought to have, but we
certainly will not forget that they are
Americans, like ourselves, and there
fore entitled to a friendly hand-shake
and a fair show.
Something, of course, must be allowed
for Spain's peppery temper; but the
trifling with Old Glory is a fault that
can be pushed too far.
Small Danger of War.
An Intelligent comment upon the ac
tion of the Barcelona mob In stoning the
American consulate is made by Sena
tor Lodge, of Massachusetts. He says:
"The news from Spain is grave, for it
shows that the Spanish people and the
Spanish editors utterly fail to compre
hend the situation here. They forget
that they recognized the belligerency of
the Confederacy within three months
after Sumter, while we allowed ten
years to pass in the last Cuban war
and one year in this before moving.
We have shown a long forbearance
which they failed to show to us. I can
not believe that the Spanish minister
has been instructed to protest against
the action and speeches of the senate.
Such a step Is Inconceivable. As Mr.
Webster said, in the famous Itulsemann
letter. It would be an Interference with
our domestic affairs which no Independ
ent state could admit for a moment.
I trust and believe that the Spanish
government understand their situation
and ours better than these Spanish
newspapers and popular meetings ap
pear to do, and I have no doubt they
do.
"There Is nothing in all this which
should affect us. The United States
must do what is right and what It is
their duty to do. We cannot suffer
that useless brutal warfare to go on
and that slaughter house to be main
tained and our large business interests
lu Cuba to be destroyed right ut our
doors and under our eyes without pro
test and without every fffort which a
great und civilized nation shuuld make
to end it und to restore peace to the
island. The violation of the consulate
of the United -States at Kureelona
makes a disavowal necessary by Spain,
and the United States probably will
inquire of the Spanish government
whut amends will be made. The case
finds an analogous one in the event
which occurred sixty years ago, when
a mob of persons in New Orleans as
saulted the Spanish consulate at a
timo when the Florida question was
uppermost In the public mind. It was
a case of mob violence, and the govern
ment of the United States made com
pensation to Spain for the damage
done."
Yesterday's news confirms the sena
tor's belief that the Spanish govern
ment has made no move in the dlrec
lon of protesting against the expres
sions employed by the United States
senators in debating the resolution
granting Cubans belligerent rights. On
the contrary, the Spanish minister of
foreign affairs has expressed his un
qualified regret at the action ot the
Barcelona mob and has given assurance
that American Interests shall be ac
corded the full protection of Spanish
law. While the situation Is critical be
cause of the possibility of a rash word
or deed on the part of some subordinate
offlclul setting lire to Ignorant popular
prejudice, there is no reason as yet to
apprehend a rupture of amicable rela
tions with Spain. If, however, a quar
rel should be picked, tho United States
could not afford to lie the uggtessor.
Representative Stone, of Allegheny,
has been figuring out how Senator
Quay Is to be nominated ot St. I.ouls.
There will, he thinks, be more than
three ballots, and nfter the third most
of the New York delegates and a mu
Jorlty of those from the South and
Southwest will go over to the Penn
sylvania candidate. Says Colonel
Stone: "The real workers In the -party
and the men who go to conventions
und nominate presidents know Mr.
Quay, und they trust him. They know
he would muke u safe president, anil
uiie who would have the Interest of the
business men and working people at
heart." Pennsylvania will hope that
Colonel Stone Is u Inn? prophet.
...
The "popular vole" system of deter
mining presidential favorites Is
sometimes a loaded bomb. The
Pittsburg Conimerclal-liozetic, a Quay
paper, tiled It, Imping to exhib
it the popularity of the Penn
sylvania candidate; but ere three days
hud elapsed, McKinley took the lead
and Is steadily forglns ahead. There
doesn't seem to be much doubt thut the
masses want McKinley.
If It was ever Mr. Cleveland's Inten
tion to play Cuba us a political pawn,
congress has effectually checkmated
the game.

It Is now evident that public sentiment
throughout the United States not only
calls for a recognition of the belliger
ency of Ihe Cubans, but expects, und will,
sooner or later, demand a recognition of
th"ir political autonomy and their respon
sible existence as an organized govern
ment. It Is no longer possible to delude
us with the impudent ami shullow pre
tense that the armies of Homes and Jla
eeo are mere bands of malcontents and
law-breakers. We see that Weyler, the
new captain generul from Spain, has
adopted measures that Indicate terror nnd
desperation raither than a sense of pe-euri-ty
and rectitude. We recognize In his
declared policy the brutal vengeance, the
studied cruelty of a baffled tyrant not
the plan of an Indulgent and humane
ruler who hopes to restore tranquility
and peace. Kven the blind can see that
Cuba is now in a condition that appeal
to the most elementary ideas of mercy
und humanity.
The Issue Is not now ose of organized
society against organized disorder. Jt is
an Issue ol barbarity against enlightened
manhood a question of elavery or free
doma choice between the savagery of
the middle aites and the civilization of Ihe
nineteenth century. This Weyler Is a
monster, lie is an anachronism. He is
as much out of place in this generation
as George Washington would have been in
the time of Attlla or Theodoric. To t.er
mit him to carry out his hideous plans
within sight and hearing of this enlight
ened land Is to connive, at infamy. To
cheek, and if need be, to crush hin. Is
to perform an net of obvious and solemn
dtrty. We do not doubt the house will co
operate with the senate in proclaiming
the sentiment of tho country. We should
shrink from the thought that the presi
dent would Interpose an obstacle. This
frightful reproach must be arrested. It
touches our honor, our manhood, iur In
