The Cuban Junta in New link has

Theio Cubans have long wanted to
fight but the junta 1ms Informed them
that they can best servo the cause the)
love by remaining In this countty as
wage-eamirs and contributing the
finewt- of wai.
Wo once asked a filend of ouis, .1
well-educated and well-to. do Cuban

when his own country needed men to

the present liihut lection's beginning to

Cuban delegate, Senor Palnia, had as
sured him that what Cuba needed most
was muskets und caitildgc. "We can
find on tho island," said he, "ten vol

Of this Kind of stuff are the men
who aro nelitlng Cuba's hattle. Though

at Washington decides to relieve the
Junta of the tusk of furnishing to the

The fact that Providence has unex

should not cause the government ut

Legal Consequences or War.
While it W unlikely that congies
will this week make a foi mat declara
tion ot war against Spain, the probabil
ity that a condition of war will soon bo
teached lends Intel est to on aitlcie in
the Washington Stnr pointing out some
of the legal consequences of such a.
-ondltlon. Pioni this article we now
quote:
'If a seneuil wnr Is declined, the
situation is governed by the general
laws of civilized warfaie, and eveiy
thlng thiil Is lecognlzed by the
International code of laws may
bo done by one belligerent to
cilpple, weaken and destroy tho
other, men to tlio conllscatton ot
piopertv on land and sea As i gener
al thing, the property ot a citizen of a
belllgeient nation found within the ter
litoiy of the otliei nation Is inspected,
as die the owner's life und libetty, but
111 this eountiy such propenv could be
1 mfiicuted by congress und the Su
piemo couit, if such a course was
deemed neccsrary as n vvni measure.
Spain would undoubtedly confl'c.itc all
the piopeitv of the citi7ons of tho
rnlteit States within Its borders, In the
event tit war, regardless of the l.ius
boating on the subject.
"I'ndcr tho law of natiin, a clti2n
e.f one countty nt war with another. Is
given 11 le.isonable time to withdraw
fn 111 the hostile leultoiy, it lie see fit
to do so. Although "leawonable lime' Is
not cleuly defined, in adjudicated
cases it has been held that eleven
months Is moie than n leasnnnblo
time. If. under existing conditions,
congress should, through the ptesldent,
lusue an ultimatum to Spain that the
Cubans be gi anted Independence, war
being conditioned on itb refusal, theie
would viitually be n. declaration of
war the moment that Spain lefused It.
"War having been declared, now civil
conditions and lolations immediately
misc. According to one authority on
intei national law, upon the outbreak
of hostilities, the persons of the enemy
me subject to Imprisonment and their
piopeity to confiscation unless protect
ed by tieaty provisions. Tills alleged
light of Imprisonment and confisca
tion is not always enforced, however,
and notice ot the intention of the gov
ernment in tills respect. Is usually set
foith In the declaration of war. One
of the provisions of a tientv entered
into between Spain and the United
States In 179' has n direct heatlntr on
this point. The piovislon in question
Is as follows: 'For the better piomo
ting of commerce on both sides, it Is
agreed that, If a war shall break out
between the said two nations, one year
ufter the proclamation ot wnr shall be
allowed to the merchants in the cities
and towns whete they shall live, for
collecting and tiansiioitlng theli goods
and meichandise.'
' Among the othei effects of a decla
ration of war. In addition to the actual
hostilities, nr,v the? suspension of the
lemedy foi the collection ot debts, th
eessatlon of all Intercouise between the
commie at v.ar and tho lespective
citizens theteof (unless sanctioned by
the government or In the exercise of
the lights ot humanity) the suspension
of contiact.s and the cessation of the
1 uniiing of lntei est "
It should be added that these conse
quences atfect only contiacts between
Amei leans and Spaniards. The amount
of business done between citizens of
Spain and citizens of the United States
is not sufllclent at this time to involve
much haulshlp through its interrup
tion by wni. There is consolation, too.

of un advantageous offer, which Is or
aro tintruo or calculated to mislead,

penalty for which Is flne or Imptison

A bill similar in its terms is likely to
appear at Harrlsburu next session, in
which case it nhould be passed unani
mously. This mtasute offers no men
aco to the honorable adv ertlser. The
business man who engnRes In business

Hut thoie Is another class of business

term who ptomlse everything and per

every essential their method ot doing
business stands on a footing In motnls
with that ot the pickpocket and the

ought to be suppicflsed. Their suppres

the general welfare nnd In fairness
