THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY. ..............Mareh 5, 1896. CROSBY 8. NOYES. THE EVENING STAR has a regular permanent Family Circulation much more th: the combined cir- ion of ti er W: ington len. As a News nnd Advertising Medium it has no competitor. 7 Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to ia it be addressed connected with the y to THE STAR, or to er Business Depart- American Cupidity. And now comes the German press, lectur- ing us on cupidity, and charging conquest as the spring of our action in this Cuban matter. If that were our governing spirit we should deserve to be lectured for our backwardness and stupidity. Cuba 1s no reeently discovered island lying off our southern coast. We risk nothing in the as- sertion that it has been there some time, and that the people of the United States have been aware of the fact all along. If we had been a nation of land-grabbers and despoilers we would have gathered the island in very many years ago. In one sense, indeed, the United States has been a barrier against the conquest of Cuba. ‘The island ts a rich spot, both in minerals and in farming lands, and had it not been situated so close to these shores England would probably long since have picked a quarrel with Spain and gobbled it up. How very forbearing the United States has been in the premises appears plainly enough in the record. The fathers belteved that Cuba ought to be American territory. Mr. Jefferson was an earnest advocate of the purchase of the island, and a number of prominent statesmen since his day have indorsed his view. As a matter of fact, offers have been made to Spain by this sovernment—very tempting offers—but to bo purpose. Spain refused to sell. At any time during the thirty years immediately preceding the clvil war in this country the slightest intimation from any responsitie source that negotiations for Cuba would be entertained by the Spanish government woull have promptly brought about the opening of such negotiations on our part. Meanwhile, what has Spain done to justi- fy her refusal to sell? Has she given good government to Cuba, as a parent countr: should to a colony? The present war, if there had been no other wars on the island, would answer that. Has the island thrived under her control? Its condition answers that. Compare it with any of the Soutn Atlantic states of this government, and the result is pathetic. Cuba under Spanish rule lacks everything that her situation, her natural resources and the civilization of the closing years of the nineteenth century cali for. Her principal city, which might easily be 1aade one of the fairest under the sun, has for years shown but little growth, a is a comfortless and unkempt town in comparison with cities less than twenty Years old in those states in the west which Mr. Cleveland, as general counsel for the missionary societies, proposes shall be turned over to the missionaries. And yet the United States is accused of harboring and trying to exercise a spirit of conquest toward Cuba! A hundred years of forbearance, and the whole period one of tuchulene ba as the result of Spanish opure: 8ses; several honorable Ss by this government to . in order that peace and the most fer- ans ‘themselves om and oceupaney by the United and the ery of conquest is raised! The situation involves a hint of appro- priate action to Congress. The appropria- tion bills are now in course of preparation. The revenues are short, it is true, but would it not be well te insert an item pro- z for the sending abroad of a com- on of teachers to teach the teachers of Great Britain and Europe something about the history of this government and aracter of the people of the United ? The amount need not be large, al- h the task imposed wouid be some- thing stupendou: —————— Baltimore Will Fight Spotlxmen. For years the city of Baltimore, in com- mon with a large number of oliiet Ameri- can cities, was ruled by rings and bosses whose administrations were wholly di honest and disgraceful; they robbed and terrorized without compunciion and achieved national ill-fame. This condition continued for a long while, but wh York city threw off the shack! Tammany had forged the re voters in Baltimore made up their minds little fighting on their own account. ting campaign ensued and when the battle was over the victory was who had cast their ballots for municipal cleanliness. That some of those who went into power as the result of that battle were insincere is made evident by the fact that there was a mass meeting in Baltimore Tuesday night, at which the spoiismen were warned of the fate that in © mis ble must = sur overtake them. Briefly stated, the facts are that the “practical” politicians in the city council are fighting the mayor because that official is doing the best he can to give Baltimore a cleanly administration; are holding up nominations ma the mayor and are offering no other than spoilsmen’s reasons for their conduct. Judging from the utterances of the speakers at the meeting the best of Baltimore's population is bound to have its way. The day of the spoilsman— whether he be republican or democrat—is drawing to a close. —___~+6s—___ Dixcourage the Grave-Robbers. It is to be hoped that the courts will, when- ever opportunity fs afforded, be severe in discouraging the industry of grave-robbing. The argument that such larceny is justified by the demands of medical science may be. a strong one but it fs not strong enough to array public sentiment on the side of those who commit the crime. That human bodies are essential to the thorough study of human anatomy is admitted, but it is possible, under the law, to secure a sufficient number of subjects to satisfy those who are seriously and legitimately engaged in study. The methods which have resulted in recent ar- rests are repulsively eriminal and will never be suffered patiently by the people of this community. The opinions expressed alleging a state of great municipal corruption in the far west would indicate a cheering confidence in Mr. Cleveland's bosom that the incar- ceration of John Y. McKane has led to a condition of total purity at the Atlantic end of the continent : —s Itaty’s Humiliation. Italian pride has received a severe shock im the defeat of Gen. Baratieri by Abys- sinian forces. Italy has always been sensi- tively proud of its military prowess and Was surely unprepared for the startling news over which Humbert’s kingdom ap- pears to have gone crazy. During late years especial atention has been paid to army organization and the results achieved indicated that the investment was about all that could reasonably be desired. Conspicu- ously good were the Italian infantry—in all Europe there was no finer body of iroops— so it is not astonishing that the people of Italy regarded their soldiers as fit to cope with any military force not overwhelmingly superior in point of numbers; certainly competent to defeat savages even when the adverse ratio was more than ten to one. ‘The disaster at Adowa has revealed a con- THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1896—-TWELVE PAGES. dition of affairs most distressing to the Italian people, for it is on record that the flower of the Itallan army fought less valorously than did their native allies and were handled very badly by some of the ranking officers. Between campaigning in clese accord with the science of European warfare and fighting Abyssinians there are many differences, but reputable command- ing officers fail to see them, and then dis- aster invariably ensues. Such lessons have frequently been taught but the experience of one man rarely convinces another, so the sacrifices continue. Perhaps the story of Adowa would have read differently had the Italians been called upon to contend with enly Abyssinians, but on that occasion, and throughout this entire campaign, the crafti- ness and murderous rage of the natives were supplemented by French valor and in- genuity. Many of the officers of the Abys- sinian army are French and it was these who directed the artillery-flre which con- tributed most heavily to the Italian defeat. With that complication Italy will not now concern itself; every nerve will be strained to punish the Abyssinians so effectually that the campaign will soon be closed. Suf- ficient reinforcements will at once be placed in the field apd bloody strife may be looked for in the mountain passes ‘east of the Red sea before Italy will be satisfied. What will be done with Baratieri is proble- maticak He will be tried, of course, and there is a possibility of his suffering the ex- treme penalty; he certainly will be shot if Italian public sentiment has any influence with the court. That revolution will come a3 a consequence of the disturbed condi- tions today common throughout Italy seems improbabie. Anarchists and socialists will incite but the agitation is likely to subside as soon as the soldiers who died at Adowa have been avenged. ———+++____ Those Spaniards who burned an Amer- ican flag couid hardly have been aware of the spirit their little bonfire was going to arouse. Leadville heard of the insult yes- terday, and straightway the only Spanish flag in the town was publicly incinerated. The fight may now be regarded as fairly started. The only question is as to the respective flag supplies of Spain and the United States. That retaliation of this sort will be encouraged—by flag-makers— is certain. +o =_____ Senator McMillan has had a great deal of experience ta the manufacture and sale of illuminating gas.

Meandering Mike assumed Fis most down- east expression, and, dropping his chin on chest, approached the woman who was just closing the front gate. Shaking his shoulders as much after Henry Irving's manner as he knew how, he said: “Scuse me, madame, but ain't you the lady I seen comin’ out of de matinee-joint half an hour or so ago?" “y, “An’ you hed real tears in yer eyes on account er de hardships of the hero, who hed been ter jail through force ‘er circum- stances, an’ who was jes’ clean down on his luck.” “I believe he made me cry.” se ye paid a dollar fur a seat, didn't yer’ “I<'s none of your business; but I did.” ‘Well, ma‘am, I've follered yer all this way ter give ye a chance at a good thing.
