That the fonn of lesclutlon empower
ing tin- incMldunt to cnny out. the "w 111
of the people with ipfoiencp to Cuba
should lmve become In any sense a
matter of paitNan rontentlon Is greatly
to bo deploted. Had the president more
dearly Indicated the exact bounds of
the authoilty desiied by hlin.lt It prob
able that no party In opposition could
hae held together. The vagueness of
the menage must be credited with
ha Ing opened the door to the political
manoeuverlng which has followed.
However It may be with congiess,
the people nu cleai In mind and de
cided as to what they want. They
want til fat of all, the Immediate eva
cuation of Cuba by the Spanish, never
more to return. They want, secondly,
the establishment In Cuba of a stable
and unmortgaged republican form of
government capablo of de eloping the
bountiful natural resources of the
Island and affording adequate protec-J
tlon to American commeieial enter
prise. Lastly they want specific and
ample indemnity for the Maine. This
must be a prominent part of any basis
of bettlpment. Delay In pressing it
only whets the popular appetite for It.
Theie should be no politics In push
ing forwatd this programme. It should
be pushed at onco with the whole
stiength of the nation.
There Is this In favor of the senate
icsolutlon. It sas what the American
people mean.
The Senate Resolution
The text of the senato resolution
adopted Satuiday night by a vote of
67 to l!l declares that "the people of
the island of Cuba are, and of light
ought to be, free and Independent, and
that the government ot the United
.States hereby lecognizes the iepubllcof
fubu a a tine ami a lawful gov em
inent of the Island, that It is the dutv
of the Tnlted States to demand, and
thr gov eminent of the United States
dops heieby demand, that the govern
ment ot Sp.iln at once relinquish Its
authoiltv und government in the Island
of Cuba and withdraw Its land and
nival foices fiom Cuba and Cuban
wateis. that the piesldent of the United
Stmts be, and he liueby Is, dliected
and enipoweird to ue the entire land
and naval foices ot the United States
and to call Into uetuil scivlce of tht
I'lSltetl ht.itts the milltli of the neveral
fctutes to such fient as ninv be neces
"al to cany tlitve it"-olut'on Into
eftect; and t'm the United States
heuliy cIIm lalms nnj disposition or in
tention to espiclse 'overtlgntv. Juris
diction or tontiol ovei said Island, i--tept
foi the pacifU.ulon theieof. andas
suits Its dett'imlnatlon.whtn that Is ac
complished, to leave the roveinmtnt
and control of the island to it people."
'J ho Ia.t rltusp ns adopted just
prior to the dual vote, upon motion of
Henntor Davis It was adopted without
opposition mitl It will have the fulltst
appioval of the people When the In
ner histoiy of this Cuban Is-bue is made
public It will piobably be found that
back of the pecullai manoeuveis of the
peaco-at-anj-piice eli ment was a w ell
denned purposo to tuin the Inevitable
war at the lnht minute Into a vvni foi
annexation, a war of foulblo conquest
Ah much, Indeed, was openlj admitted
by one of the Icadeis of this clement,
Senator Hildas. Urom (list to last this
element seems to have boon actuated
solely by hope of gain. The bond and
the dollnr sign have to nil nppeaiances
been tho Alpha and Omega of the
standards by which they enteied upon
the consldeiatlon of this question, If
the thought of doing one bravo deed
for liberty and humanity without ton
dltlon of repayment or hagglo as to
price ever entered their minds, evi
dence of It Is not supplied In any pub
llo rocord. Since tho days when tho
Savior of mankind drove the money
changers from the temple there has
been no act more fitting than the adop
tion by the American senate of tho
clause renouncing designs of acquisi
tion upon Cuba.
That clauso makes unimportant the
question of the immedlato recognition
of the Cuban republic.
As for Joseph Benson Foiaker, his
smile Is actually audible.
The British member of parllmcnt
who wants that body to ask the United
HtateH to send It copies of tho Cuban
consular reports pays oui consular ser
vice a high compliment. Hut we're
f 1 id that titter Englishmen reud what
J KOS&C
our consuls havo been telling our state
depnitment for yenrs past they'll des
pise us because we didn't Intel vene in
Cuba months ago.
It Is a mistake to credit Mr. Bryan
with hnving been tho instrumentality
which lined up fl votes in the senate
against tho president's 37. Mr. Hryan
may bo a veiy able and adiolt poli
tician and a nnturnl leader of men, but
lie has not and piobably never will
have that much Individual power. The
vote In the senate meant simply that
public opinion, after much disappoint
ment, grew heartily tiled of tho long
and fruitless diplomatic dawdling
which had characterized th earlier
stages of our Cuban policy and was
detei mined nt last to cut across lots.
This may not have Leon an especially
prudent decision but It certainly was
and Is a popular one. Solicitude for
Spain's feelings no longer animates the
great body of the American people, and
confidence in Spanish "Justice nnd
honor" has descended to 7ero. Hence
the commnnd from the people to presi
dent, nimy, congicss, navy, trained
mllltla and volunteers Is to stop
proernstlnatlng, load their guns and
move on.
Laboring Under Excitement.
It Is natural that members of the
National Guard should desire In the
event of a call to the front to retain
as far as possible their existing organ
Iratlon This feeling does ciedlt to the
Ouard s esprit du corps It Is a feel
ing which the government Is bound to
respect to the utmost extent consist
ent with Its own highest Interests. That
It w ill resDect It so far as It can has
already been announced
Thus If a regiment shall volunteer
substantially Intact Its organization
will be kept Intact, from the colonel
down. More could hnrdly be asked of
the geneial government In way of con
cession Hut In some quarters It seems
that this Is not considered enough. It
Is reported that some of the guards
men say they will not volunteer unless
the entire brigade is accepted en mabse,
with retention of the brigade oiganlza
tlon How much further this splilt of
dictation of terms will go If It be not
dlscouiaged it Is Impossible to foretell.
The need for calm reflection upon this
matter, therefore, is great.
The guardsman's lovalty to his com
pany, his regiment and his brigade Is
a creditable emotion. Without It ef
fective oiganlzatlon would not be pos
sible. Hut It will hardly be held In mo
ments or sober thinking that this feel
ing should outweigh proper loyalty to
countij. That would defeat the very
purposo of the National Gunnl and
make membership in it the reveiso of
creditable. Those guardsmen who seem
Inclined to legard the possibility of a
call from the piesldent as an Impel tin
enco unless it Is coupled with condi
tions of their own making do not se
ilouslj mean what they wy. They .11 e
slmplv laboilng under excitement.
Cieneinl I.ee undoubtedly ought to
have a command In Cuba, and if le
sults ate wanted he'll get one.
The Senate's Purpose.
Theie can be no doubt that lecog
nltlon of either tho belllgeienev 01 tho
independence of a state Is exclusively
an executive function. Congress iins u
moral right, as repiesenting the public
opinion of the people, to advise the
president when, in its judgment, letog
nltlon Is desirable In pursuance of
this right and b concurrent resolution
which expres-sed the pieponderatlng
sentiment of the nation then and now,
the Fifty-fourth congiess advised Presi
dent Cleveland to lecognlze the belllg
eiency ef the Cuban Insurgents, but he
paid no attention to its advice, thus
directly and deliberately insulting tho
legislative branch. Latei, when the
senate of the present congiess repeated
this counsel to President McKlnley, his
advlseis, lepiesentlng on this Issue
only a small mlnoiity of the people,
caused the senate's lesolutlon to be
held up In the foieign affairs commit
tee 100m of the house, where It yet
sleeps In a pigeon hole.
The basis of the executive's represen
tations to eoncress at this time, as
made through lecognbed spokesmen,
was that diplomatic ptocesses were be
ing tmplo.ved tow aid the end of a sat
Isfactoiv settlement of the Cuban ptob
lem, which piematuio recognition of
Cuban belllgeieney would greatly em
bairass, If nut hopelesslv defeat. In
defeieuce to these lepresentatlons con
giess withheld fuithei presine and
milled to the executive's suppoit with
a loyaltv and a unanimity of purpose
not pievlously witnessed in Aineilcan
hKtoiy. It Is Imijoitant to keep this
fact In mind In view of the piesent
attempt of tome of tho executive's sup
porters to make It appear that congress
Is now Hying to ovenule the president.
So fai has this been fiom tho tuitli
that congiess, against Its own better
judgment, awaited in patience the end
of the toituous couisf of dlploniutlo
negotiation, which in its belief never
offcied the slightest hope of a s-atlsfac
toiy conclusion, suppoitlng the execu
tive In each ot his bteps up to and
Including the $r.0.000.000 appiopilatlon
for tho nation's defense, without a dis
senting vote It wns not until the presi
dent himself confessed to congress In
his recent message that his scheme of
diplomacy had failed utteily at the
final test, and Invited an expression of
the will of congress In the premises,
that congiess reverted to its original
plan, now mown beyond mere recog
nltlon of belligerency Into an Irresist
ible demand for Immediate forcible In
tervention In Cuba for tho establish
ment of absolute Cuban Independence
Let us be scrupulously fair about this
Important matter. Congress stood by
the president honorably and with rare
fidelity as long as ho ictalned the lead
eishlp. But when In his message he
laid this down and asked congiess to
point tho future way does It Involve
any lollectlon upon tho chief executive
that congress is now accepting his in
vitatlon, not bv further toletanco of
the confessedly Ineffective methods of
diplomacy but bv exorcise of Its con
stitutional pierogatlvo In what amounts
In effect to a declaration of war? The
houso spoko first In terms of restraint
which thinly veiled its militant Intent.
And It Is possible that tho senate would
have accepted the house's cushioned
phrases but for the inJeeent tftoi'U of
tho coterie of peace-al-any-prlce sonn
tois, headed by Messrs. Hanna and
Ulklns, to ply upon the backs ot fellow
scuatois the administration whip In
furtherance of their own ends. That
this was done with tho president's con
sent we do not believe. Far more cred
ible is the assumption that It was a
brazen usurpation of authority of n
piece with that which during the past
fortnight hns In ought our high-minded
and patriotic chief magistrate down
from unexampled popularity to a con
dition of unpopularity without Just
cause In any personal net or thought.
Tho vote In the eonate Saturday night
was the public's vote of censure, not
on McKlnley, for whom every senator
nnd eveiy Intelligent citizen has the
ptofouudest personal respect, but upon
the malign Influence of some of his
prominent udvisers upon Hanna, upon
Hlklns, upon the wholo twisting nnd
squirming, biood of peace without
honor senators who, In their eager
ness to defeat the popular will, did not
sciuple to Intilgue with pope nnd priest
and fotelgn ambassadors, outraging
the Independence of the American na
tion These men stand today flayed and
kicked aside by the strong force of tho
nation's asserted patriotism. With this
duty performed congress is now free to
tuin Its attention to the common
enemy. Recognition, In any event Is
11101 ely an Incidental Issue.
Diplomacy having passively per
mitted over 200,000 Cubans to stnrve it
Is not surprising that the voice of this
Christian naton Is now lifted against
further diplomatic dallvlng and In be
half of war.
The enthusiasm with which Mont
gomtiy county listened to Brother
Wnnamaker's speeches and then licked
his delegates would discourage a less
optimistic reformer.
Americans bear no malice against
the ruling dynasty of Sapln but It can
not concede that that dynasty's safety
Is of more consequence than peace nnd
humanity In Cuba.
It Is evident that Hon. Julius Caesar
Huuows does not desire to be re-elected
to the senate of the United States ftom
Michigan.
It Is safe to guess that the ambassa
dois of the powers will never risk con
clusions with the United States senate.
Tho house of representatives should
remember this morning that the essen
tial thing Is to get the wai ships started.
Senntor Quay knows from experience
that It doesn't pay to try to wage war
with feather pillows.
If It is to be war let It be war fiom
the word go. No parleying now.
If Spain cannot take a hint maybe
she will heed a kick
Going at It in an
Erroneous Manner
1'ioin the Chicago Intel -Oiean
THU report of the senate commute o
on fuiiltii lefitfuns Is a crushing
airaiguiiKUl of our own lorelga
pollc ia the lust three euis.
Urom the beginning of tne Cub in
1 evolution we have ill if ted through com
plications nnd embarrassments beiklng
tver an amicable settlement Instead ot
asseitlng our rights. The report ot tho
senate committee lllustiutes the fatal de
fects of this poliej, as no previous cita
tion ot facts has done.
o
in tracing the pi ogress of our negotia
tions with Spain, the committee mnkts it
painfully clear that fiom the vor llrst
we havo cried In our negotiations with
Spain we havo come torwaul constantly
to seek mt-relv as many of our rights as
ve could obtnlu without friction Instead
of standing over on the firm basis of
treaty law, we have stood on any ground
01 havo faced any way la our efforts to
stcuie 0111 objects without giving offenso
to the Madtid cabinet. Consequent we
have left In M idnd tho impression that
we weie supple, folding, and ever con
clllntorv in deference to a bold fiont.
hither all this has led us we all know.
o
In tho eas of the Competitor the expos
tulations of this government were in ef
fect meielv petitions for roval clemenej
The Cmni otitor prlboncru captured under
our flag were Imprisoned nearlj seven
teen months and were never brought
pioperly to trlil though thev weie sub
jected to harsh. Illegal, and degrading
pieilmlnary examinations The entile
pioceeding ngalust them wits unlawful
In this case, as In otheis, the United
States permitted Itself to bo put technic
al!) In the wrong, and In tho end Its citi
zens were paidcncd as for a crime In
sti ail of being released with indtmntt) as
u light. In the case of Kulz, an American
citiztn was assassinated bv act ot Span-
Mi officials No repaiatlon hus been
mndo foi this Hud the relenso of tho
'"ompetltor pilsoncrs been demanded as a
treat v rights, which It Indlsputablv was,
and had tho government at that time In-i-IMed
on their relense. there would have
been no Kulz ease and no destruction of
the Maine.
o
One of the strongest Indictments made
bv tho committee Is thai tho United
States lias been placed In an attitude of
loiicuironio with tho Hpaulaids ever
slneo tho beginning of the war In Cuba;
that Amerlenns havo been In effect silent
partners in tho woik of Spanish Infuiuv
Having been pushed Into this attitude,
the nation In a splilt of foibeniance has
submitted to manv atroiltles perpetiated
by Spain on our own citizens This takes
no account of tho atrocities committed
against tho Cubitus. It Is Independent of
the devastation of tho Island. The Amer
Itan losses alono have amounted to J50,
000 OX) In property and to hundieds of
lives.
o
Tho argument of tho committee Is that
the foreign policy of tho government must
be changed. We can no longer puisne a
eourso that subordinates everything to
nmlrablo settlement When wo are clcnr
1 In the right we must say so, and In
Mend of ucccptlng simple Justice uh a
favor wo must demand It. As tho begin
ning of this new policy tho committee
iccommends Intervention. This will bo
1111 assertion of the right of the United
States to look after Its own Interests in
Its own way. It will do nwny with a
policy which, while frittering away treaty
rights with the mlHtnken Iden of gain
ing peace, merely piles up complications
for the futuie

Urom tho PhlladelpMa Press.
Tho coming state convention Is called
upon to relievo tho part of responsibil
ity for attempted treasury raids, for
pudded pay rolls, fcr legislative Jobbery
and plundering by making a nomination
such as will assuro the people that not
only nro these things repudiated, but
there can be no lepelltlon of them. It
Is demanded that tho Republican party
in I'ennsilvanla shall bo no longer held
In bondage und humiliation to serve flu
purposes of personal Jol bery. This Is
what tho candldncv of Mr. Wanamaker
represents. Mr. Wanamaker is not seek
ing a nomination for governor himself,
but ho demands, and tho cnuso he leads
demands, Unit the nominee shall not bo
the slated ciitullduto of Jobbers und self
seekers who havo dlthonored tho party.
Tho people would bo satisfied to accept
Charles W. Stone, of Wan en; William
Connell, John I.elscnrlng, or some other
thoroughly representative Republican.
Hut whomsoever tho candidate, the con
vention must come face to face with tho
fact that sincere and earnest Republi
cans who are no longer willing to sub
mit to the nilsuso and abuso of tho Re
publican nomo and organization must bo
reckoned with. Only those who are de
termined to wreck tho party will attempt
to forco tho nomination of u mcro per

Urom the Washington Post.
At least ono feature of the piesent sit

provol and contentment The knowledge
that our controversy with Spain Ins been
taken out of the hands of diplomacy and
transferred to those of congrtss, will re
joice every one Our diplomatic conduct
of the Cuban affair, whether during the
Cleveland or tho McKlnley ndmlnlslra

plished nothing. This kindergarten busi
