111 In ht wcnl wmo of the principal
jinlnts In th'H Indictment:
"Tin- urmv itnil the navy aie both
very bad'.f In need of .reorganization.
The nuvnl p.r-t.o.npl bill Is u mutter of
extreme iuporu.trc. but all efforts of
Hie president and Secretary I.uns to
vecuvo the passage of the bill through
the house seems likely to lull. It was
Introduced at the lieKliinlnjr of the ses
sion and referi ed to the Naval com
mittee, when- It was pl'ueon. holed. It
would Involve an Increase of expendi
tures of somuthliiR like SCOO.uOO a year,
but it would give the navy the olllcers
mid engineers that aie absolutely
reeded to ninti the ships already owned
by the government.
"The militia force of tile T'lllted
States, so far a? its equipment it con
cerned, Is almost half a century behind
the age. In one Mate thirteen kinds
of guns are used by the militia. (!e
cause of this failure to equip the militia
with uniforms and modern guns the
creator part of it would be ineffective
In cast; of war, and when the men were
llnally equipped with Runs they would
have to use rllles with which they were
entirely unfamiliar. Year after year
this matter lias been brought to the
attention of congress by Hie ar de
partment and at each congress bills
have been Introduced and generally re
ported to tile house In remedy tills
state of affairs. SHU, through the op
position of ceitalu leaders In the in
terest of 'economy,' nothing lias ever
been dole.
"Tho army oiganlzatlon is in the
came antiquated condition. Kor many
years congress lir.s been urged by the
AVar depattinent to pass a measuie
that would L'ive the army an organ
ization like that of the Kuropean gov
ernments. As long ago as the Klfty
flrst congress a bill passed both houses
on tho subject und failed In conference
committer because the chairman of thu
liouse conference committee could not
iret recognition near the end of the ses
rlon to secure the adoption by the
liouse of Hie conference report. The
measure has liunir along: in congress
Tver since, and now, with a possible
Vor in hluht, Secretary Alger, d'eneral
Miles and the other responsible olfle
Jals are extremely anxious for tills
legislation. The piesldent lias urged it
Upon tile leaders of the house, and
today Chairman Hull, of the Military
committee, inti minced a new bill on
the subject, which has been so modi
fied that the president is in hopes that
it will pass, lint Mr. Hull can get no
promise of consideration of his meas
ure, and It Is very doubtful if It Is even
taken up In the house at this session.
"The need of dry docks Is notorious.
It has been urged upon congress tor
years, and yet. If certain lenders could
hnve had their waj, the house naval
committee would possibly not have
done anything on the subject. Mr.
Uoutelle was so put out because the
majority of tho committee refused to
follow his leadership on Hils matter
that he left the committee room when
the vote was taken deciding In favor
of constructing new docks, and also
when It was decided to construct tor
pedo bouts and 'destroyers.' "
"These," adds Mr. (Ubson. very Im
pressively, "are the leasons why the
country Is unptepared, for war. it Is
wholly the fault of congress. The lead
ers on both sides In tecetit yeais, Demo
crats as well as Republicans, have been
nt fault. The stent majority in both
house and senate have been ready to
votfl the necessary legislation to put
the country in a condition of defense,
out they have been held back by lead
ers whose plea was that of economy
d plea the country now realizes was
very short-sighted. Instead of provid
ing the vessels needed for the defense
or tho country the navy department Is
now put to the necessity of purchasing
Inferior vessels at high prices in for
eign markets. The torpedo boats and
torpedo-boat destroyers vessels that
nre not expensivehave not been pro
vided, and as a result the administra
tion is now forced to purchase tugs and
yacjitw and turn them into torpedo
boats. So fur us the destroyers' tiro
concerned the nation is absolutely
ivlthpitt a single ellielent vessel of that
hind. Unless public opinion U brought
'severely to bear on congress It is by
no means certain that this short
sighted 'economy' will bo abandoned
even at this late day."
If Mr. fllbson or any ono else will
give to the country the names of Hie
juejt who are chlelly responlblu for this
stupid obstruetlyenesN we will warrant
that they will not get Hie chance to
repeat theTr'mlstoke. '

The court ruled wisely In refusing the
application of IMward .T. Vn!sh for u
wholesaler's license next to the First
Presbyterian church. It is but fair to
Mr. Walsh to' say that the opposition
massed against this application was In
no sense personal. It gives us pleasuie
to add. voluntarily, that Mr, Vulsh is
us worthy a man as Is engaged In tho
liquor business, and one on personal
grounds much mote deserving of a
license than many v. ho now hold
llielises. Vet If be were to be per
mitted to locate a liquor store next to
n church it would be simply Impossible
to deny the same consideration to
others, and the result In time would be
that many churches would be literally
surrounded by such places. IT It is
good policy to make a rule that licenses
.liall not bo granted within, say, 200
feet of a church or u school It Is cer
tainly good policy to enforce thut rule
Impartially. Vhcn Mr. AValsh finds a

Ripe for Action.
All who have read the full 'text cjf
the leport made to the senate by ex
Secretary Proctor concerning the con
ditions observed by him In Cuba must
realize that w hlle 11 is a most carefully
repressed .statement of facts and ob
servations, offered without comment
or suggestion, It Is also a terrible In
dictment of the past course of the
American government. "We defy any
man to read this sober and tinemo
tlonrj reeoid, with its convincing at
testation of the righteousness and the
military strength of the Insurgent
cause, and Its equally convincing con
demnation of Spain, and not arise
from perusal of it converted to the be-,
lief that the belligerency of these
fighting Cuban patriots should have
been recognized nt least one year ago.
Our indifference then was mistaken,
but Its prolongation now would be
criminal.
The entire native population of the
Island, says Senator Proctor, outnum
bering the Spaniards five to one, is In
avowed or secret sympathy with thu
insurrection. It lacks arms and
strength to r.''ike Its sympathy imme
diately triumphant, but the sympathy
exists. The aspiration for freedom is
theie. It has survived the nwful car
nage and cruelty of three years of un
speakable misrule. It has grown with
the blood shed by Spain and with the
indescribable sulferlngs of the recon
centradoes. It now aligns race against
race, Cuban against Spaniard, In re
lentless antagonism and It will con
tinue this alignment until the most
fertile of Islands shall be converted
Into n ruin unless- meanwhile the
I'nlted States lifts Its voice in Cuba's
rescue.
What is our government' duty?
First and greatest, to notify Spain
to get out. On this subject there need
be no mincing of words. The time for
diplomatic fusslness has expired. "We
have leached at last the Ktage of the
game which demands the firm will and
the resolute arm. Spain must be sub
tracted from the Western hemisphere.
The I'nlted States as the primal re
public of the new world, whose flat is
law, must superintend the subtraction
The method which will attain tills end
In the briefest possible time is the
method to be chosen, and the conse
quences of Its choice will bo accepted
by the Ameiican people, be they what
they may.
A wivr In such a cause would exalt
this nation. Hut war or peace, Spain
must go.
Concurrently witli this, the president
should recognize the Independence of
the Cuban republic. Recognition of
belligerency would have sufllced u year
ago. Now we should go to the limit.
Cuba has. paid tho blood-fee of free-
doin. She should not again be cheated
of her due because of tho Ameiican
element which cries for peace at any
price.
The Maine disaster, infamous as It
was If t-iiown to huve been designed,
Is after all by contrast only Incidental.
The great heart of free America, beat
lug in unison with the spirit of Its
founders, goes out to this abused
neighboring people struggling to be
free, and, Irrespective of the Maine,
Its message bids them hope. Rescue
Is neurer Hum they think. The time
for American action has come. No
power on earth can withhold America's
hand.
A young woman of Philadelphia,
Mii?s Cotfman, seems to have solved the
dillluult problem of truancy, nt least
to her own uatlsfuctlon, and with a

The Proposition of
Ciiban Intervention
Worn the New York Sun.
rt FTUH three years of warfare Hie
A situation In I'ulju resolves itself
lit thus: Spulu cannot put down the
r" rebellion; Spain will not grant in
dependence; the Cubans cannot ex
pel tile Spaniards, and will not yield to
thriii. Therefore, it is argued, the I'nlted
States ought to Intervene. Spulu is an
Independent stale. Lawrence, in Ills "Prin
ciples of International Law." thu latest
authoritative work on the subject In tiro
English language, and one that Is con
sulted constantly these days by Hie de
partment of state, defines inilepeiuleneo
us "Hie right of a stale to manage nil Its
alfjlis. whether external or Internal,
without liiterfereiiLO from other states,
.is long as It respects the eoiresponUltix
right possessed by each fully-sovereign
member of the family of nations." While
this Is true, fin it principle, It happens
someilniej that another state or gioup jf
stale. Interferes with proceedings of an
Independent slate io compel it to do
something which. If left to Itself, it
would nut do, or refrain from doing
something which, if left to itself, it would
not do." This usually liappen when fciieli
state Is engaged In an internal turmoil
or an external conflict. Lawrence, says:
"Interference of tills Kind Is called Inter
vention." II
Lawrence loutlnui-s: "The essence of
Intervention is force, or the tin eat or
force. In ruse the dictates of the interven
ing power are disnganlrd." The general
polbry of the I nlted Sl'ttex is non-lnter-vitiou.
Yet. like nil general rules, it Is
subject t exceptions. The most notable
of these cxci-pllcn ii when Prance,
under Nape teon III. by force or urin at

liulllnn, followed by tho establishment ot
the Mexlcun republic on more (.eeurti
foundations than ever. This was o tine
instance ot Intervention, and was a splen
did vindication of the Monro doctrine.
TIip gtounds upon which the I'nlted
States might intervene In Spanish-Cuban
affairs ure three:
1. 'Humanity.
L'. The lutcrpstfc of its own citizens.
',!. The protection of Its own citizens
from a threatening danger.
o
Although destitute of technical legality
under the ordinary rules of international
law as at present written, the first of tho
grounds upon which the I'nlted State.?
might intervene III Cuba is one that ap
peals to the moral sentiment of mankhid,
und under exceptional circumstances Is
morally Juvtlliable. The power which In
tervenes on this ground must uudertako
such Intervention with a single eye to the
object In view and without ulterior con
siderations of self-Interest and ambition,
if it is to bo Justified ut the bar of na
tions. It must be kept In mind that inter
national law does not lay clown the prin
ciple, that cruelty on the part ot a gov
ernment renders It liable, to be deprived
of Its freedom of action, nor does it im
pose upon states the obligations of pre
venting either ordinary barbarity on the
part of Its neighbors or that special kind
of inhumanity which takes the form of
religious persecution,
-o-
Lawrence sajs: "An Intervention to
put a stop to barbarous and abominable
cruelty is 'a high net of policy above and
beyond the domain ot law.' It is desti
tute of technical legality, but It rimy be
morally right und even praiseworthy to
a high degree." Tho question the United
StuteK is called ttpon to dtcldo for itself
is whether of not it Is jiutltied in inter
terlng In Spanish-Cuban affairs on the
broad ground of humanity. Fortunately,
we are not without a precedent, created
by three of the principal Kuropean pow
ers. The cruo in point Is that of the In
terference of Great Britain, Franco and
ltussla on behalf of tho Greeks In 1SI7 nud
tho following years. "Tho contest le
tweeen them and their Turkish oppress
ors had gene on for years." says Law
rence, "and had been marked through
out by the most horrible barbarities, it
seemed as if It would end In the exter
mination of the wholo Greek race." This
description ot the Grecian struggle for
nndnpendenco from the Turkish yoke
npi-ds only a change of words, "Turk
ish" to "Spanish" and "Greek Yuca" to
"Cuban people,' faithfully and accurately
to describe tho Cuban situation today.
The result of the Intervention was the
establishment' of tho present kingdom of
I tireene, 'ilia lesiur or ininrvenrion oy
the United States In Cuba will be the es
tablishment of the Cuban republic.
Tho Intervention of the powers nanicvi
III behalf of Greece was bafed on three
grounds: First, In order to comply with
the leqiieFt of one of the parties: second
ly, on the grounds of humanity In order
to stuy the euMslon of blood; thlidly. In
order to nut a stop to plrucy nnd an
archy. These grounds, like those on
which tho Cnlled States may base Its
rljht to Intervene In Cuba, wcro tech
nically Illegal under the rules of Interna
tional law; but they were morally right.
Speaking of this event Hlr V. Hnrcourt,
rm Englishman of standing nmoiia writers
on lntornatlon.il law, In Ids celebrated
"HUtoiicus" letteis. says: "Tho emanci
pation of Greece w.j it high act of policy,
above and beyond the domain of law. As
an act of policy It may have been and
wan Justlllable; but II was not the h's a
hontllo act. which. If she dnrot. Turkey
might properly huvo resented by war.
It follows from this precedent that, so far
us International law Is concerned, the in
tervention of tho V nlted Stales on behalf
of the Cubans will be a high act of policy
above and bejoud tho domain of law. As
mi net of pollcv It mny be and will be jus
tifiable. Spain, ot collide, may resent it
if she so desire.
o
An olTecl or the intervention of Great
Urltnin, Franco nnd Russia on behalf of
the Greeks is that it estops them from
objecting to the Intervention of tho I'nlt
ed States on behalf ot the Cubans. een
If thoy wore so Inclined, while it will
have a restraining effect upon other Lit
ropenn rtntes widen, if they did not for
mally approve biltnentlon In the case
ot Greet e, certalnlv took no steps to pre
vent that Intervention and afterward ac
quiesced In the result.
o
There have teen oilier and later In
stances of Intervention on the part of the
great powers, such ns that in 1SW, when
they Intervened to put n slop to the per
secution and nuissicro of Christians In
the district of Mount Lebanon. Great
Britain, by her intervention in Kgypt. a
province of Turkey, which ha been car
rled on with armed force ever since 12,
admits thut the interests of a stale and
its people are good grounds for Inter
ference by one state In the Internal con
cerns of another stale. Tho principal
grounds ot her Intervention In Kgypt and
her armed occupntion of that country are
found hi her interests In tho Suez canal,
and In those of lier people In Egyptian
bonds. Thu justification of the policy of
Intervention because of the Interests of
the intervening state nnd Its people be
ing thus rouna In Great Britain's course
regarding Kgypt. It only remains to point
out the fact that the interests of the
I'nttwl States and Its people require the
cessation of the strucgle in Cuba which
H devastating the Island, ruining Us In
dustries, and destroying its population.
Trade with tho island is at a practical
standstill, nnd American property Is in
volved In the ruin. This covers the sec
ond ground on which tho I'nlted State-,
finds Justification for such Interference In
Cuban affairs defined by Lawrence as In
tervention. o
The thlicl ground Is different from
those cited In the books. Cuba is the
home ot yellow fever, a disease which has
again and again scourged, the people of
the I'nlted States. Our own experience
has taught us that this dread (Urease can
bo prevented by proper sanitary precau
tions. Sanitation Is an unknown science
to the Spanish. The conditions for a(fi n'
fut outbreak of yelolw fever, the worst
ever known to mankind, arc ripe in Cuba.
Once started. It will be beyond our pow
eis to prevent Us transfer to our snores
only six hours away, and Its spread to the
Interior. Standing alom this would per
haps not be sulllcieiil, es'en morally, cer
tainly not legally under iiiternatloii.il law,
to Justify Intervention; yet undoubtedly
it adds weight to the other two grounds,
just us phncy and anarchy added weight
to the llrst two reasons for the Interven
tion of Grcn lirltiln, France und Russia
on behalf of the Greeks.
o
Concluding bis i em, irks on the gener..l
subject of Intel vention and non-intervention
Lawrence saye: "Neither sellb-.li iso
lation nor undlgnlikcl lemonstrance Is the
proper attitude for honorable nud self
respecting states. They should lutertetre
ery sparingly, and only on the clearest
grounda of jiihtlce and necessity; but
when they do Intervene they should make
It clear to all concerned that their voice
must be attended to and their wislvs
curried out." In these words tho I'nlted
States finds lis course In the past ap
proved and Its pathway for the tuturc
lihized out.

From the New York Independent.
The acquittal of SheillT Slartln for the
murder of strikers at Lattlmer. I'o., is a
simple triumph ot Justice. V.'e are not
sorry that an Indictment wns brought
usalust him and thai he was put on tilil
for this alleged (rime, although we have
believed fium the flr-d that h was only
acting In pursuance of his dun as the
chief peace olticur of l.uzrrne county. It
Is undoubtedly a hard thing for a man
who does a painful duty falthtully to be
arraigned for it as though he were a
criminal. Nevertheless. the r.lreum
slances surrounding the event were sueli
that theie mlfcht hate b"eii some doubt
In tin minds of Imnartlal men as to
whether he was justified hi what he did.
No such doubt Is now possible, ihe trial
has been a long one. The nble judge who
presided gave wide latitude to ihe prose
cution, and 11 great number of witnesses
were examined. All that can be known
about the Hhooilng Is made known by the
testimony of over a hundred wltiavse".
The Jury which heard It nil agreed upon
n verdict of acipilttnl wll hunt hesitation,
und the sheriff Is a free man.
o
The result of the trial, important as It
Is to Sheriff Jlartln, Is far moro Important
In the Inlluence it must have oxer othr
peace otllces. f a sheriff hi the simple
pursuit of duty, using the best judgment
he has. conies Into collision with u mob
that will not obey his orders, and in
which men are killed and wounded, may
be convicted of murder, the effect would
be to give rioting preuy nearly five
course. No shrilff over whom the danger
of Indictment of murder might hang
would be likely 10 perform his duty with
very great tidelity In preventing or sup
pressing riot. He knows perfectly well
thut when he faces a mob he take hH
lifo 111 his hands and runs the same risk
of being shot nnd killed as a soldier does
In battle. If, In addition to this, he is
also liable to be tried as a murderer his
otllce would he one of extraordinary risk.
