Commanders, whenever admissible,
inform the enemy of their intention to
bombard a foi tilled rlt, so that non
combatants, and especially women and
children, may bo icnioved fiom dan
ger. Hut it Is no infraction of the
common laws of war to fall in t litis
warning tho enemy of Its dnnger. Sur
prise Is held In some enses to be a
necessity. ony foailled places aie
liable to bombardment, u s custom
my when a illy Is to be bombarded to
designate- hospitals and like Institu
tions by flags, usually yellow, no that
the besieging enemy may avoid Hiing
on them. The .same Is done in imttiu
vihero hospitals are located wltliln the
Held of engagement. An honcnahle
enemy aespects theso Hags of protec
tion so far as the light will peimlt. and
it Is justly considered an act or bad
faith, of infamy, and llendlshness to
deceive an enemy by such Hags. The
besieging enemy often ruiuests tho be
sieged to designate, the buildings con
Mlnlns collections of ait, siicntilic
museum", or previous libraries, mj that
their destruction may be avoided.
As iccarils confiscation, the Ameri
can army is authoiUed to impropriate
all publlo money, seize all public and
movable propeity, and seipieslcr for Its
own benefit all tho t plenties or icul
liioperty belonslnK to the hejstlle gov

belonging to hospitals, churches, char
itable institutions, and seats of learn
ing Is not considered public property,
and is therefore exempt fiom the neces
Hitietf of war, except In etiemely
urgent cases. If -works of ait. llbiailes,

will then bo decided by tho ensu

Aa concerns ptisoners ot war, tho

A prisoner ntVnr who escapes may be
shot or otherwise killed In his lllght,
but neither death nor any other kind
of punishment mny bo visited upon him
for his uttempt to escaiie, which the
law of war does not consider a crime.
11 the law of nations the bearer In
good faith of a Hag of true Is, together
with his cscott, Inviolable. Firing Is
not leeiultcd to ceae on the nppear-
ance of a flair of truce In battle, and
If the beater of a Hag, piesentlng him
self dining an engagement, be killed or
wounded, It furnishes no sround of
complaint whatever. The United States
acknowledge and piotect In hostile
counttlcs occupied by Ametlcan atmles,
religion mid morality, sttlctly private
piopcrty, the petsons of the lnhabl
tants.especlally women, and the sacrcd
ness of domestic relations. Offenders
are i Igorously punished. This rule
does not Interfere with the light of tho
Atneilcan army to tax tho people or
their property, to levy forced loans, to
billet soldleis, ot to appropriate prop
erty, especially houses, lands, boats,
ami ships, ami chinches for temporary
milltuiy use.
At best, war is hell; but better a
tempoiaty hell with war than a per
manent one thtouch shirking of hu
mauitailan duty.
It lemains to be seen whether Span
ish "honot ' will be bullet proof.
Different Points of View.
In order to reach an accurate com
prehension ol pending movements it
is lucessary to bear In mind certain
fundamental points of dlffereme be
tween the Anglo-Saxon and the Tntln
inees. The Latin eveivuhcre is bv
larlal Impulse volatile, boastful, given
to fuilous gesticulation and lluent Im
acey In speech, highly strung, quick
teiiipeicd and treach'-rous. Intrigue
comes bv second natuie, vanity often
l cache, the grotesque The Latin by
act of Pioildence Is a liar. Some otit
gi n this weakness but with the ma
Jot ity it abides, unconsciously. "We
shall haie to allow fcr this tact when
preparing to Intel lene In Cuba.
eln the other hand, the Anelo-Slon
is Mow and stern. lie- Is least danger
ous when most vociferous. It has bo
come u piovcib with him that "the
balking dog neier bites" The most
imilnnus sign that theie is Intel national
tiouble ahead is the coinpauitive calm
which is now ovei spreading the situa
tion at Washington, illustrating1 that
other piovcib that "still unten l tin
deep" Moieoier the Anglo-axon W
guided by his Judgment lather than by
his emotions, and is a bolievoi in the
doctiine of fiankness between man nnd
men. "When we told Spain that she
must get out ot Cuba she thought we
were Iduillnir. Sh judged us by th"
value which she would attach to oms
of bet own hluh-sounding ultimatums.
When we told the Cubans that we in
tended to fiee them but wouldn't lec
ocnlze their make-shift govei nment
until we had had an oppoitunity to look
over the giound they tlneateivd to lie It
us, because they thought we meant to
steal their Island. They judged Anglo
Saxons by the Latin Htnndard.
The Cuban Is better than tho Span
iaid because the Cuban li.n to some
e tent learned fiom Ameiica. Main
Cubans haie been educated heie. Oth
eis have visited heie. Yet otheis have
had sons or daughteis educated note.
This good lea en counts and it would
multiply rapidly with Spanish sover
eignty elimlnut"d. Vet there is still a
lais margin of racial cliff eienee which
must be allowed for. AVo must tiy to
look tut matteis fiom both points of
view II we would spare out selves a
deal ol trouble.
The Philadelphia Press Is wasting a
lot of unnecessary sympathy on Hop

well qualified to take caie of himself.
Information.
Mr. Thomas llrown, Jr , of Forest
City, nsks us to answer the following
questions: (1) At tho time tho battle
ship Maine was Heating in the haibor
of Jluvnn.v just pioiious to her do
stuictlon, did she not carry a full sup
ply ot ammunition' (2) Do the ves
sels of our navy In time of peace catry
lull magazines and other munitions of
vnr in like proportion, and if not vvhnt
Is their equipment in this linn? (.')
At thts time of tho blowing: up of tho
Maine what supplv of ammunition was
can led by the vessels of our paiy?
In reply, wo may say that lie un
deistnnd the Maine was "loaded for
bear." (-') ClicumstaiKcs goieiu the
amount of ammunition can led by na
val vessels In time of peace. 'When
ft anchor in homo ports llttln Is cat
iled. When ciulslng where there is
believed to be tho possibility of tiouhlo
the supplv Is inci eased, fj) The ships
at Key West had as much ummuuilioii
on board as the Maine had. They, too,
vine prepated for any euieigincy.
Hut it is tho light of a warship to
tairy ammunition, at all times. That
Is what it is foi. The piesence of am
munition on the Malno In no respect
canceled her rishi to be hospitably
received at Ilaiana and accorded every
ivacon.iblo piotectlon. Wo gavo pro
tection tei tho Vlscaya when It wan

nnd shells.
It Is some consolation to know that
Carl Schur. is not now fornlnat the

Larry Godlilu id.
There will bo a lot thut Lee can tell

John "W. Griggs hasn't been. In the
cabinet ton? but facts show' that since
he has been theie ho has been tho right
man In the proper place.
Mr. Bryan says ho believes President
McKlnley Is "honest, conscientious nnd
pure " The sequel will show also that
ho Is able.
Abuse ot McKlnley does MrKlnley no
harm but it docs reveal some extra

Spain's long sowing ot Hie wind gives

AIR. CONNELL'S CANDIDACY.
Kiom the Seranton Times.
Hon William Connell has nt last made
ofllclal announcement that he Is a can
didate fot tho Itepulillcaii nomination for
governor. To aehlevo a nomination nnd
election to that oHlce Is a worthy ambi
tion and the. mnn who entertains It
should not Icavo the people In doubt. It
was high time that Mr. Connell made his
announcement, lie lias received nn un
qualified endorsement In ono of tlie leg
islative dlsttlets ot tills county nnd we
nio on tlm evo of conventions In two
other districts. Mr. Council's enemies
have been making capltnl of the fact
thnt ho had not announced his candidacy
and an element of distrust Injected Into
tho canvass might have done him ma
te! lul Injury,
o
Now, that no question of Ml. Conncli's
attitude remilns, we havo not the slight
est doubt that every delegate from every
district In Lackawanna county v 111 be
instructed to use every honoruble means
to securo Mr. Conncli's nomination It is
right and proper that this should be the
case. Whatever local bickerings may dis
turb either party at home, when a man
ot acknowledged ability seeks a state
office, personal jealousies unci enmities
should bo forgotten, local pride should
tower above them and the aspirant for
a state office should have thei unanimous
support of his pjity In his own county.
It was thus when L A. Watrer was a
candidate for lleutemnt goiernor It was
thus when Hon II. W. Archbald wus a
candidate for Judge of the Supreme court.
It should ho thus when William Connell
is a candidate, for goii mot
o
Tho Times Is for HorjWllllam Connell
In his candidacy for tlie Itepubllean nom
ination for governor, not onlv because
ho Is u Scranlonlnn, but because we be
lieve him to be tlie superior of Wnna
maker, tlie superior of either of tlie
Stones, the superior of any other can
didate named for consideration of the
Itepubllcan.s of Pcnnsvlianla. We shall
do our best to elect a Democratic gov
ernor tills fall. lint If a Hepubllcan
must be elected we shall lejolce if that
Itepulillcan should be Hon. William Con

A Strong Candidate.
