THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY. arch 2, 1896. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Cireulation much more than the combined cir- Medium it has no competitor. t7 In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individeal connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to thi Editorial or Business Depart- mis, necording to tenor or purpose. Mob Demonstrations in Spain. The anti-American manifestations, in Spain’ are not a surprise. Neither are they “at all alarming. Why should they be? The oh, fresh from the bull fight, must have ifS fling. People who regale themselves on Sunday with spilling the blood of bulls are easily set off. The most flagrant outburst was at Barcelona. This was to be expected. Bar- celona enjoys the distinction of having defeated General Campos. A powerful ring of millers and other manufacturers exists there, and this ring has for years found large profits im Cuban markets. The bare proposition, therefore, that Cuba should enjoy independence, or even that degree of home rule giving the choice of a market, is repugnant to it. The first report of General Campos from Havana aroused this ring. It turnea upon him at once, and eventual- ly, as has veen reported in this country, accomplished his downfall by persistent machinations at Madrid. Its purpose was to keep the price of flour up in Cuba at any cost to the inhabitants of the island. And so, not improbably, these Barcelona students are merely the fiery-eyed proxies of the dusty millers of the town parading and gesticulating somewhat under the in- fluence of commercial considerations. Meanwhile it is to be observed that the cables show an absurd, though a typical, misconception in other countries than Spain of the situation here. It would have been a pity if England had not led in this Procession of blunders. Her reputation for inability to grasp any American preblem is so high there is a hope here that it may never be rivaled. For an instance, the St. James ette says: “The jingo cags which the President thought proper to hatch in a higtly artificial incubator in De- eember have produced a brood which will give him and the etatesmen of the United States a great deal ef trouble as it grows ‘to maturity.” The Gazette evidently labors under the iw pression that there was no Americanism in this country prior to Mr. Cleveland's Venezuelan message; that the people up to that time had no thought or care regpect- ing their relations to the outside world. The Gazette of course would have written differently if it had ever heard of the Ha- Waiian episode, the Allianca episode, and the Corinto episode, all antedating the Ven- ezuelan epizede. The peopl: have never needed to be prodded on the score of an emphatic assertion of their national obliga- ticns to themselves or to others; and it is a fact that the one deliverance of Mr. Cleveland bringing him the closest in touch with all classes and conditions of his coun- trymen has been that message to England that his government will not tolerate the oppression of any people on this side the sea at the hands of a transatlantic power. The people indorsed that enthusiastically, as they now put forward of their own ac- cord a similar declaration with regard to Cuba. And who are their spokesmen? Not the younger men in Congress, but the veterans. Mr. Sherman and Mr. Allisen on the one side and Mr. Morgan and Mr. Vest on the other— men of age and experience, and ef large and far grasp—stand in their places, and, speak- ing under the fullest sense of responsibili ccmmit themselves to Cuba’s succor at any If the St. James Gazette appraises them as spring chickens its information about the barnyard !s as Iimited as its in- formetion about America. Nor will these men turn hack. Nor ought they to turn back. They have spoken under ither excitement nor misinformation. Nor gre they fresh converts to the policy they now advocate. They have felt for months that intervention on the part of this country in Cuba’s behalf should take place. They have been waiting upon the President. They decided at last to move in advance of him, hoping for co-operation in a case which General Weyler’s performances have made se acute. Shall they be disappointed? In the Venezuelan matter Congress responded to the President's initiative, as it should bave dere, not only without question but with fervor. Will not the President in this Cuban matter respond as promptly and patrioticaliy to the initiative of Congress? Se A Step in the Right Direction. sy the passage of the Maupin bill, the Virginia legislature has done much toward the of Alexandria county. There is chatter among the “sports” and rv friends to the effect thar the law will ted in the courts, put gossip of that el not now be heeded. There may sses in some of Virginia's courts, but it is not probable that any of them will develop in the face of such an unanimously- strong expression by ihe people's represen- tatives. The leg’stature having done its the Iuirden of p img order and respect for the statutes now y upen x authori- zinia and of Alexandria county. now that he has the trol, will doubtless see aa City piague cost. pt is ers of the Young Men's Auxil- e of the Ba!timcre Centennial were very much in evidence Sat- urlay evening. They had a grand rally in and succeeded in convincing lots - that the Baltimore Centennial reuld net possibly be anything but a big s. Some of those same young mea bave been husting in Waskington, and they promise to do it again and again until sat- isfactory results are plainly visible. Wash- ington ought to be interested in the affair, for a large percentage of the multitude that will attend the centennial is sure to visit the national capital; as a matter of fact, the Faltimoreans are using their proximity to us as a convinemg reason why thous- ands of strangers should make up their minds to enjoy the centennial. ae The far south fs not to be caught between seasons. stspension of the water- melon traffic does not paralyze her re- sources, for she is now sending almost daily shipments ef fresh information con- cerning the political leaders of the north. —. = — In assuring the public that he would not be a candidate Mr. Whitney did not omit to indicate whac kind of a platform he would prefe> to run on if he were a pos- sibility. ——__. «= The Y¥. M. C. A. Build! As soon as the new secretary of the Your g glen’s ( trsstian Association has been installed—an event not long to be delayed— the association will doubtless start out vith renewed Vigor on {ts campaign for funds ce of the unsuitable one which was ce- stroyed by fire last year. Anything in the nature of a special plea*for the needed structure would seem to be a work of su- pererogation; the great good that has been and is being cone tells its own story, and presents an argument against which there is practically no defense. Established for the purpose of cultivating that ever-vic- torious combination—a sound mind in a sound body—the assoctailén has done mar- velously. Undenominational and with prin- ciples as broad as the field in which it Jabors, the association claims the-allegiance ‘of the best and brightest bellevers in the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. Among its supporters in this city are those who have achieved conspicuous places along many lines of honorable endeavor. With so much of solid character in the front rank of the movement, there should be no difficulty in securing ample means with which to construct and dedicate, debt-free, a ¥. M. C. A. building which would be a credit alike to the most helpfully-philan= thropic of institutions and iv the capital of the nation. It would be eminently fitting if every branch of the association in the United States were to contribute something toward the erection of a model structure at the seat of government. A New Business Combination. The south and the west are getting togeth- er in an unexpected way. Financially there has been harmeny of error in those two sections but not until this winter has there. been much promise of commercial intet- course such as would turn southeastern’ trade Chicagoward. That movement is now. visible, and this is how it commenced. Dur- ing January and February there has been a steady stream of immigration from the northwest to the south, the immigrants be- ing mainly those who preferred a compara- tively warm climate to the. somewhat frigid conditions common encugh in northern win- ters. Located in the far south, these immi- grants nevertheless wanted such, agricul- tural implements, groceries and general inerchandise as they had been accustomed to purchase in their old homes, and to sup- ply this demand the southern storekeeper has In many instances been compelled to open accounts with Chicago houses. As yet the business is not heavy, but it Is growing steadily, and Is sufficient to cause disturi THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1896-TWELVE PAGES. Queenly peer hiee) PERRY'S.

His agents swarm at both ends of the Capi- tol. The Pullman car people, fearful of leg- islation on the lines of John Sherman's bili to reduce the price of the upper berth, have had several attorneys and men of “4nflu- ence” watching developments.
