War Formally Declared.
The declaration by eonfrres that war
with Spain has existed Mnce April 21,
including that day, Kives unquestion
able legality to acts of hostility com
mitted by our lieet since that date.
One of these, the capture by the Nash
ille of the Spanish steamer Uuena
Ventura, off Key West, on the morning
of April 22, has been severely ctlti
clzed, it having bfn effected, before
the blockade of Havana harbor was
formally proclaimed and tho Ventura
having on bo.ud at the time no arti
cles coming under the head of contra
band of war. Since this time piUes to
tho value of at least $1,000,000 have
bien captuied in Cuban wateis, and
a foinml declination of war, dated
back to cover them, will leniove the
possibility of complications In the ad
miralty couit It will also simplify
other matters of International law and
usage touching neutrality obligations,
and "specially bear down upon Portu
gal for permitting the Spanish fleet to
rendezvous at tho Cape Verde islands
-Mote important still, it trees tho
nnny and nanl foices of the United
States from tint le.stiictlon Implied in
tho Joint losolutiou ordering Spain to
entuato Cuba, and opens the way for
their use In an patt of tho globo
wherever neeessaiy lor the support of
Ameilcau intetests or honor. On any
pea wheio a warship cariylng the flag
of Spain meets one canjlng the Tted,
AVhlto and nine, there can now be war,
without waiting for "by your Ioae"
On any soli claimed by Spain an
American Innil force Is now at llbetly
to alight for the purpose of Invasion
and conflict. Cuba becomes by reason
of It only one of many possible thea
ters of action, and it will bo to our
country's shame if, having gone into
this war. t-bo shall not carry it forwaid
from eveiy posslblo starting point to
tho one lno liable and, we trust, speedy
conclusion.
Tho silence of General Jacob Coxey
Is oppressive. It Is possible that the
general sees no silver lining to the war
cloud.
Mr. .Sherman's Retirement.
Jnc- of the peisistent misrepresenta
tions of the Democratic press has been
that John Shrrmuri was appointed see
relary or state in order to create a place
for Mail; Ilanna. Now that Mr. Sher
man has icsipned the truth as to the
reason back of his appointment will be
welcome. In the Chicago Tlmes-Iferald
President McKlnley's Intimate friend,
H. IX. Kohlsaat, explains that the
eents lending up to that selection date
back to a time when Senator Ilanna
was unheard or In national politics.
"Tn order to trace them consecutive
ly," he says, "It Is necessary to recall
the memorable national convention of
lfb8, when Mr. Sherman was a candi
date for the presidential nomination.
In thaj convention William McKinley
wae Sherman's at dent tupportcr, and
his loyalty was attested by nn net of
self-sacrifice tarely vitntssed in po.
llttcal conflict. On that historical occa
sion, after numerous unsuccessful bal
lots had been taken, several delegates
rasMheJr votes for William McKinley.
ThP-efffrt-wns almost electrical, and In
a few momentB It seemed ns If tho con
vention was preparing to make him Its
nominee
"In that moment of confusion and ex
citement Major McKinley stood upon a
chair and confronted the vast assem
blage His face was pale with emo
tion, hut his voice was clear nnd un
shaken as ho announced that ho was
the friend and suppotter of John Sher
man, nnd that any delegate who cast a
vote for him (McKinley) wns not a
friend but nn enemy who was placing
him In n false position beforo the coun
try. The movement In favor of making
him tile national leader in that cam
paign wis thus destroyed In Its inclpl
ency, but tho superb attitude of Wil
liam McKinley In that convention en
detred him to all who admire honesty
and courage In politics. It was one of
the most dramatic scenes over enacted
in a national convention, nnd one that
will remain In the memory of all who
witnessed it
"After the convention Mr. Sherman
thanked Major McKinley for his loyal
ty, and said: 'Some day you will be
president of the United States.' 'If I
do you will be my secictury of state,'
was Major McKlnley's reply. One week
after tho election of 1S9G President-elect
McKinley, tine to his declaration of
eight years before, offered Mr. Sherman
the position of secretary of state. Mr.
Sherman advised the president-elect to
name a vounger mnn for the state de
partment, but gave his promise to ac
cept if the picsldent failed to llnd an
other man to suit him."
Mi. Sherman's letiremeiit from of
ficial life tounils out n cnuer of unex
nnipled usefulness covering every phase
of the national f-eivlco save the mili
tary. Up will be remembered as the
Oinnd Old Man of modern American
btittsmanslilp.
The festive evening paper makes Its
appearance soon after sunrise these

That Ambulance Fund.
The prompt response made ester
day by the people of Scranton to The
Tribune's call for subscriptions for the
purpose of providing the Thirteenth
regiment -with an ambulance, hoise
and harness does Infinite credit to the
community's patriotism. Especially
gratifying are the contributions in
small bums received from the pupils
In No. 27 school. A penny from a
school boy Is as much to be prized ns
a dollar from nn adult, for It indicates
the existence In the younger contribu
tor of a sphlt which will develop in
time Into a national resource.
Today, In nil probability, the Thir
teenth will Mart for camp at Mt.
Oietna, prepaiatory to Its larger
mission of usefulness ns a part
of the giand volunteer army of the
Federal government. It Is probable
that It will not need an ambulance
Immediately; and It is most devoutly
to be hoped that while doing Its full
duty it may never need one. Yet to
day as tho holdleis leave there should
go with them the information that
their friends at home, within a few
hours after the want became known,
had contributed the whole amount
asked for.
A beneficial phase of the win, which
is little dwelt r mn, contains much sig
nificance, and that Is the influence
which the stand taken by the United
States will have on the opinions, preju
dices and futuie action of a laige class
within our own holders. Our country
contains elements in its conglomerate
population which every year grow to
be mote and more a menace to the
safety of the Republic. It is a good
thing to set before tho eyes of the
lawless and adventurous ones who
l!i,ck to our shores an object lesson
illustrating the power of our govern
mentthe hand of steel beneath the
velvet glove of liberty and peace. The
present conflict outside our own lines
may act ns a mighty preventive to one
that at no distant day might have
shown its ugly head within our gates
and at our very firesides.
The commissioned officers In New
York state have been exceedingly
mixed as to their duties in tho exigen
cies of preparations for wnr and have
been obliged to seek advice early and
often. The National Guard of Pennsyl
vania labois under no such disadvant
ages. Camp life and service in cases
ot Hot have not been play ns has been
tho meagre field experience In our sis
ter state, nnd the National Guard offi
cials from the least to tho greatest,
thoroughly undei stand their work. Tho
difference may be appreciated b; talk
ing to a glial dsman of some or the
swell companies of New York, and also
by noting tho dcgiee of excitement
which exists there as continued with
the calm and philosophical manner
with which our militia men receive the
intimation of going to the front.
The icvenue tax on tobacco will as
sist to a laigo extent In paying the ex
penses of the piesent war. The quiet
man who has been forced to go out to
the barn every time he wants to smoke,
can now mnke a kick and show his
patriotism by burning the weed on his
front porch.
' Trout fishing stories have been very
modest this season up to date. It looks
ns thuugli tho trout fishermen hud all
turned war coiiespondents.
Owners of tho cargo of the Buena
Ventura should prove property and pay

The Spanish navy carries a regular
stock of twenty-seven admirals. No

By the tlmo the war Is over a search

Spain can now sympathize with the
orators who raise the hue nnd cry In
reference to "coal baronH."
Prospects for a large hay crop this
season are fair.
A "Spanish Fandango" danced to

1 Till; Spanish Hoot crosses tho ocean
and nothing less can save the Span
ish monarchy from complete col
lapse tho woild will sco the first sea
llGht between civilized combatants
since the evolution ot I ho modern war
ship and tho itvoluilon In methods of
nival warfare. The world Is awaiting
the lesult with bttatliless cuilnjltv. it
Is no new thing to sea men lighting, but
tho world has barely seen these fighting
machines in action i ml Is .istly euilous
in know how they will bcluve. War
among dvllrtil people, who. it Is thought,
have midlines of the t,n.itist peifcitljit
and will get the highest results out of
tin in, is welcomed as tho llrht complete
test of all tho chiboiato experimentation
and anxious theorizing in the naviil con
struction, armament and chill of the last
twenty j cars.
o
Tho world's curiosity will bo disap
pointed If It expects modem Invention to
change tho essential condltons of nuvnl
warfare. Tho soa light of todnv will bo
won, us every sea light Mncc war pir
ogues clashed In the Mediterranean, long
Lpfcuo the dawn of hlstoij, was won by
human vigor, daring, prescience and res
olution. The man Is the soul of the steel
lighting machine, ns ho was the soul of
the Greek war galley, and the midline
can do no more that bo makes it do An
imperfect m ichinn will do wondcis when
Uinetid bv strength and valor, tho most
perfect machine will be Impotent when
directed b feebleness and Irresolution.
Tho man will win, as ho always ins won.
Steel armor may protect weakness, but
cannot make It strong. Modern guns are
formldabloonly In Him and skilful hands.
Steam power loses all valuo when they
who direct It lack watchfulness and fore,
sight nnd lose touch with co il supply and
tlockvards Machinery becomes dead in
clumsy nnd careless hands. Matter can
not light; that Is the gloiy of mind.
Modem battleships are only tools, and the
tools are to them who can use them.
o
There havo been tlireo sen, fights since
our civil war, in which there was no fair
test, because the enemy had no equal
navy. This covers the era of steam power
nnd armor. In each of these lights ships
far superior, more heavily armed and
niinned. were crushed, beaten, sunk,
driven aslioro and put to flight by an en
iBiy ot suptrlor vigor, dirlilg and dis
cipline, lighting from weaker ships with
inferior we ipons Tho ono gleam of -glory
and color In Austiian history since the
heroic age of the Kmprcss-Queen is the
battlo of Llssa, which almost wiped out
the shame of S idow i The Italian fleet
was then, ns now, the heTVlest in ton
nage, armor and guns in IJurope, though
clunisv In movement and manned with
enormous ciews badly disciplined. Clos
ing with it on the Dalmatia coast, with
a smaller number of weaker ships, Te
gethoff drove right and left, ramming
and firing, reckless alike of life and ships,
till lnlf the iionclads wero sunk or
benched and the lest wero crawling
across the Adrl itle The valiant Chilians
beat the soft Peruvians against odds
nearly as gnat when they took the Iluns
enr with a weaker ship. In ivi the Chl
neso fought on hcavilv armed btttleshlps,
equipped with tho best European machin
ery nnd with crews trained and drilled
by German engineers. Tho Japanese,
born sailors and historic fighters, steamed
mound them with light-armed eiulsers
and smashed tlicm with rapid-flro guns.
ii
Daring nnd discipline won the Yalu,
tho lluascir nr.el I.,sa against heavy
odds, as thev won Sr.lamls, Lepanto, Tra
falgar. Whether ships are moved with
oars, sails or screws, whether they light
with beaks and balllstas, carronades and
cutlasses or high-powered guns nnd tor
pedoes, It is the human clement that wins
battles The new machine, like the old,
Is nothing without the man behind it.

Tho Spaniards never had much luck. If
they have opprosned other people, they
havo had plenty of tho same medlclna
themselves. The Carthagenians wero the
first that brought the SpanUh peninsula
to tho attention of the world. They
founded colonics along tho Mediterran
ean. When the Romans destroyed Car
thago thev fell heir to It. It was then
part of Gaul ana was called lllunania
They conquered It und gave It thu f'rst
real start toward civilization. When the
Itomaiis began to decay. It was conquered
with tho rest of tho empire by tho Gotns.
They grafted their language on to tho
T-utlu and gave us Spanish; but the
amalgamation had scarcely taken pi tco
when, in 709, the Moors or Saracens, Jrom
Africa, began to pour In and eventually
i educed tho wholo country to subjection,
except the northern portions. These Mo,
lcma stayed for 700 years and the last ves
tige of their authority did not vanish un
til just about the tlmo of tho discovery or
America by Columbus, when tho keys of
the Alhambra wero tmrrondered to King
Ferdinand. During nil of that tlmo al
most constant war wns waged botwoen
tho Moslems and tho Christians; and
when the latter wero not fighting tho In
vaders, they found plenty of employ
ment In fighting umong thomselves. This
period was ono of constant war, raplua
and slaughter; but amidst It all tho SIoois
established a high Mamlnrd at civ Illa
tion, for that day, and made nn linpicpB
upon art nnd architecture which Is still
felt In the world; while the Spaniards
developed that vigor which finally enabled
them, when tho Moslems got to quarrel
ing Hinong themi elves, to expel the In
vader. o
Then Spain entered upon what sho te
Kurds as her tra of glory. Queen Isnrjcila
had faith In tho cranky notions of Colum
bus and pawned her jewels to stake him
with an ocean-going outfit. It was a big
Investment for Spain. She beenmo In a
short tlmo tho great explorer and colon
ized of tho world, and her brilliant con
quests wero well calculated to turn the
heads of any people. Her adventurers
went forth and conquered nnd plundered
tho simple people of the new world of
untold trensure, which was poured into
tho Imperial treasun and Into tho pock
ets of tho people. Tlipy ravaged South
nnd Central America and Mexico Willi a
cruelty nnd bnrbarllv that almost sur
pass belief Never vvcio thore hungrier
or more Inhuman freebooters than theso
which sho sent forth to thu western
world, and never did robbers nnd pirates
alight upon richer or easier prey. Heady
to hand nnd to bo had for the taking,
from the peaceful Inl ubltants, were such
treasure and wealth ,m the world had
never beforo dreamed of.
o
Simultaneously with the'e cruelties
abroad came tho inquisition at Inune and
tho persecution of thu Jews. Whoever
reads of them will find that the present
generation of Bpnnluids come by their
cruel Instincts honestly. In this era Spnln
annexed to tho crown tho mator portion
of the western continent nnd seemed
likely for a tlmo to add to It tho best por
tions of Hurope. At one tlmn practically
tho wholo of South America Central
America, Mexico nnd the wholo of tho
present tenllnrj of the United States
west ot tho Mississippi together with tho
peninsula of I'lorlda acknowledged her
sway Hut this era did not last long. Her
Kuropean alliances began to fall olT, tho
stream of wealth from the west did l.ut
last nlwavs, and she hid not the wit nor
ability to mnke up for tho gains uf mb
bcry bv those of lndustr At the time
cf the Napoleonic wars she fell a victim
to the ambition of tho Corsica, who
placed his brother on her throne; later a
Frenchman ot the house of Ilourlion
cima to the suecefslon, nnd within the
present century the lost nil of her Ameri
can possessions except Cuba anil l'crto
Itlco, which she now holds by so slender
a thrcael. She has only her prldo left,
and that Is founded, not upon the pies

THE DUTY OF THE HOIJIt.
From tho Philadelphia Record.
There Is room for no discission now ex
cept such as relutcs to the ways und
means for mest oulckly striking down tho
public enen.y and compelling him to sue

fully. Motlurs must bo prepared to part
with their tons, wives with their bus
bands, and children with their fathers.
Tho ilch must bo lendy to give up from
their store without stint, and tho poor to
surrender still another fraction from their
pittance. Howevei greatly we may havo
differed In the past as to tho necessity or
wisdom of nn appeal to tho arbitrament
of arms, wo must sink our differences
