It Is quite true that the recognition even of belliu'eiency Is apt to ho re g.lfiled b the parent state ns an un friendly act and as a de'tionstiatlon of mornl support to tho lebolllon it cloe.s not follow thnt such n view Is Just. Spain so icgaitled that leeognltlon of belligerency which we accorded to tilt Spanish-American i evolutionists "from the commencement of theli i evolu tion." ns Mr. Foisyth pointed out In n let'ei to Mi Ooiostlza on Sept. 20, 1SS6 We, uursliii resented the tee ognitlon of the Confedeintes as hellig t rents bv Son n, but that was because we. tlioushi her too hnst, the stop haing been taken befotp the (lrst battle of Hull nun. Pieenil, ns Judge Kalian has pointed out In Feud vs. Sufget, we, ourselves, ncknowledgod that tho dictates of humanity lequlred even our own government to recognlzo the Confedeintes as belligerents. Touching the same point, Manning says, in tho Law of Nations- "The concession of belbgi-r nt ih'li's may. nt a certain epoch ot tln stilfi bei,chilnied both In the Interests of hu- Oi tm CiSrs1 t Eneity I-irKf't pcke creuUit econotu)'. aw THEtN,K.(FAIRBANK COMPANY, ' ' CblcVo.,"nrJui' ''V"i '- An Exhaustive Analysis of the That Its Recognition by Our Yet Be Unwarranted. inanity and of neutral states.

Manning goes on to say that the main dllllculty encountered by third partlts lies In u.scertulnlng the moment proper for what Is called the recog nition of belligerency: "It must neither be so prcmatuie as to ombairass a friendly government in Mippicssing whnt may piove to bo only a transient or partial display of disorder or tieachery. nor. on the oth er hand, so dilatory as to protract the Inconvenience and cruelty Incident to n contest conducted on a latge scale, apart fiom nil the humane allocations which the laws of civilized war have lntioduced " puncnnnNTS.

Now let us glnnce nt the second asset tlon, that our recogni tion of the Cubans as belligerents would do them more hnrm than good. UTILITY OF HtXOONlTlON. It might ho Bulllclcnl to reply that the CuhniiB me the best Judges of that, unless wo are to carry out assumption of a paternal attitude to lengths oddly Inconsistent with our simultaneous re fusal to maintain neutinllty between the Cubans and their oppicssors. It Is certain that a tecognltlon of hclllg eiency nnd Its Invariable consequent, a proclamation of neutrality, were things pnsslonntely doslicd by the Spanish-American Insurgents In the first qunrtei of this century nnd again by the Texans In the thirties. Here we may observe that I..orltncr (Law of Nations), after pointing out thnt, "by recognizing belligerent rights, neutral poweis pronounce no Judgment what ever either on the merits of the claim or the probability of Its ultimate vin dication," goes on to say, "Uelllger ent iccomiltloh Is n mere declaration of Impnitlallty. To withhold from the claimant foi recognition the lights of belligerency, while we extend them to the patent state, would be, plainly, to take pait In the war" on the side of the patent state. To a similar effect writes Poinotoy (International Law): "To tefuse such leeognltlon (that of belligerency might, under certain cir cumstances, have the dliect effect of causing the state so refusing to take the part of the mothei count o ngalnst the tebels. As a consequence If an other power would reninln strictly neu tral to the contest that veiv attitude must involve the leeognltlon of the In surgents us belligerents. Unless an other power desltes to take active pait in the hostilities nnd throw the weight of Its Inllueiice, and, under .some cli cuintnnces, the positive aid of Its ex ecutive noweis, hj favor of tho mother ooiintiy, h must ticat the lebuls as helllKfl'onts." A single example will sufllro to show that, at present, we do not even pie tend to be neutial between Spain and Cuba, and that the Cubans may suffer gilpvously fiom mil withholding neu tial lights. Undei our neutinllty act. It K a misdemeanor to lit out or pio lde the means for a vessel with the objnet of ci nixing or committing hos tilities against any foielgti pilnce or .state. The Cubans, thpiefoio, nnd their American ft lends, are dohniml fiom lilting out essels In Amoilean pints to fuither the Cuban eause. As mnt tots now stand, howpvu. nnd In the absence of a leeognltlon of Cuban bptllgeieiipy, Spain has a perfect light t equ'p ciulseis In this country for u-e In Cuban waters against her re- olted colonl ts.

"I'm willing." said the dentist, with a st-illo of confidence. "It's hardly fair that I should act," said "Hoe." "I havo ahead expressed an opinion." "Viu needn't decide the bet till you'e had tlmo to think over the bus iness," s-ild the fieckled boy, "Then jou'll find out that tho twentieth con tury In gins on Jan.

"How do you mako that out?" "S'pose you stint to count a hundred. Aro you tluough when you'va counted .ninety-nine, huh?" "Oh, that's not the same at all. lleie!" The dentist went to a writing table and picked up u piece of paper. He draw a lino nnd made tough' cross "inuiks on It. "Suppose we want to count up to n hundred, by years. At tho end of 9S wo come to 99, and at the end of 99 we round off 100 and start In with a new- count." ' ,,ri(" TJ,-.rp lrr Ing heavily nnd looking nt he floor, "The question Is somewhat puzzling at flrat, hut I'm Inclined to think that our young friend Is right." "Stop a mlnulo and think, "Doc," said the dentist earnestly. "He's trylrg to count 101 years for every contury.' "Hoc" reached for tho paper nnd be gan to make some I'lagrnnn on nla own account, "New gentlemen, the simple method by which to nrrlve at a conclusion Is to go hack to the beginning of the Christ ian cm," said he. "It Is evident thnt we cannot ngree ns to the day which begins the nineteenth century or tho eighteenth century ,or nny other cen tury except tho llrst. Hut we cannot fall to agree ns to the day upon which the llrst century began, tl began on the llrst day df the llrst month ot the year 1. You will admit that?" The dentist seemed to ho puzzled. "I suppose so," he said. The freckled boy gilnned confidently and shifted the cigar In his mouth, As for the veterinary student, he wns at tempting to follow "Hoe's" line of ar gument, hut he was evidently In great doubt. "Furthermore, the second yenr of the Christian era began on the llrst day of the 111 st month of the year '.'. Nothltrg lie simpler. Healing that in mind, lot mo ask you tho dnte upon which tho 111. st centuiy ended." "It ended .Inn. 1, I'n tho year 100," said the dentist. "Impossible! You would have the llrst century Include only 99 years. A century consists of 100 years. The llrst century would not end untlj the 100th year had been completed," "How's that?" asked the dentist. "I sny a century consists of 100 years. The llrst centut did not end until tho 100th year had been completed It con sisted of 100 full years It endeu at midnight on Dec. 31 In the ear 100. The second centuiy bosun within nn Infinitesimal petlod of time after mid night on the moinlng of Jan. 1 in the year 101 The flist day of the second i ntury was Jan. 1, 101, nnd the Hist c'.iv of the twentieth century.

He said this to the dentist, who 'at staring at him with an expiesslon of mlnrled bewilderment and dNgust. The fieckled boy leaned back and laughed boisterously.
