Though reg- rd to that body, he has not 1 in its labors for over twenty He is a man of great brilifancy, and 4 quarter of a century ago was at the head of the then promising republican Movement in Spain. With the collapse of that be gave up political leadership and bas since devoted himself to letters and He is quoted as sustaining the government against the United States, and bis attitude fs referred to as illustrating hew thoroughly united Spain is at this time. > It would be a mistake, however, to as- sume that Senor Castelar sustains the course of the Spanish government toward Cuba, for that would go counter to his record. The movement of which he was gt one time the head was a vigorous pro- test against the very features in Spain which have characterized Spanish rule in Cuba. Oppression of the people, excessive taxation, corruption in official circles, were the evils which he and his coadjutors sought to correct at home. They made a spiendid fight, but showed the lack of stay- ing qualities. = Some few reforms were forced by the temperary success of the great orator and MMs followers, but they were unimportant and did not extend to the Spanish colonies. Cuba, particularly, has seen her gloomiest days since Senor Castelar gave up the fight for good government through Spanish agencies. And Spain, herself, has, upon the whole, gone steadily down hill ever sirce the monarchy, although coupled with constitutional limitations, was restored to pewer. What Senor Castelar stands for now is simply love of country. It is a sentimen: which does him honor. As against a for- eign power, he Is for Spain, right or wrong. But he cannot escape reproach for his years of inactivity. Had he remained a diligent Worker for a better order in Spain and in all of her colonies he might have accom- plished many things, and enough to have made the present war in’ Cuba unneces- sary. For it is true that what the Cubans went to war about is precisely what Senor Czstelar when in leadership tried to uproot —cppressive and corrupt government. The uban shaft, therefore, which has pierced Spain’s armor, was taken from Senor Cas- telar’s own quiver. No Time for a Currency Agitation. This is no time to begin a dispute as to the descriptive word to be used in connec- tien with the propesed war loan. It has been suggested that instead of the word “ccin” that is ordinarily employed, the new obligations should contain the word “gold.” Secretary Gage, in an article just pub- lished ir the New York Independent, urges strongly against this change for patriotic reasons that will impress most Americans. This war loan, if effected, ought to be an appeal in its terms and conditions to all the people, without reference to their place or resources. ~There should be no re- striction that will narrow the chance of subscription to the money lenders. It should be, in every respect, a “popular” loan. It should bespeak the patriotism of the peo- ple. The ordinary ccurse of the govern- ment in transacting such business should new be followed, and it will be exceedingly unfortunate if the necessities of war sould be utilized for factional purposes to inter- ject into the government's certificates of indebtedness any phrase or word that will reopen the currency argument and possibly embarrass the nation in the successful and speedy prosecution of the war. Secretazy Gage writes thus of this subject, aad his position and financial views are such as to Sive his words exceptional weight in such a connectio: “While some saving of interest would doubtless be made by making the honds payable in gold, I believe that it ts better not to complicate the question by such a Proposition at this time, but rath>r to let the proposed bonds stand upon the same basis as other public obligations, and re- main identified with all the private cbliga- tiens, wage agreements and other Lusiness contracts of our peo; We must not divide in this hour, or distract the people from their patriotic purpose.” ——++~o— Operations in Cuba. It is evident that this government is los- ing no time in accomplishing such a junc- tion with the Cuban insurgents in the field that active military operations will socn be possible. The news of the landing of Lieutenant Rowan's party, destined for @ consultation with General Garcia, shows that the plans that have been laid long in advance are now in course of execution, while today’s news columns of The Star contain assurances of a disposition on the part of the military and naval officials to press forward speedily te action along this line. The first necessity is that the Cubans be armed and equipped, provisioned and clothed. They have thus far fought under great disadvantages as to their outfitting, and it 1s the first duty of the United States, if these seasoned and acclimated men are to be utilized for offensive operations against Havana, to supply the deficienc’ that may be laid largely at the doors of the United States, which maintained so effective a blockade of the Cuban ports nm behalf of the Spanish government until a few weeks“ago. There is a good reason in iticn to that suggested by military con- siderations for prompt operations in the way of securing a stable foothold on Cuban soil. The reconcentrados are now out of food once more and are reported to be dying at a distressing rate. They must be succcred. It will not do to send sup- plies in to them and trust to good fortune for the goods to reach those mosi needy and worthy. The distribution of food and other materials must be accomplished by a military guardianship. —— - ree The Mangrove’s Nervy Commander. Although there some disappointment when it was found yesterday that the Man- grove’s prize was not the transport Mont- serrat, for which the naval officers have been anxiously watching since the war be- gan, yet there is solace in the details of the capiure, which reflects great credit upon the character and coolness of the American naval commanders. Lieutenant Commander Everett had at his disposal only two six-pounders, while the Panama Was armed with several fourteen-pounders. The laiter could have blown the Mangrove out of the water, as the naval phrase goes. Notwithstanding this disparity in arma- ment Commander Everett demanded the surrender of the Panama with all the as- surance of an officer on the bridge of the most powerful of battle ships. The affair sheds some light on the theory that one of the greatest elements of strength for the n forces in this campaign will be cter of their oilicers. i The Paris Sighted. The steamer Paris 1s said to have been sighted by a liner on its way eastward. At 4 o'clock Monday the auxiliary cruiser was noted at longitude 29.06, latitude 48. or considerably more than a third of way to New York by the ordiuary steam- ship route. At her best speed the vessei ought to be off Newfoundland by this time, though she may have taken a differ- ent course than usual to avoid the enemy. Friday is the day on which the Paris is expected to reach port, and at the rate she stems to have been traveling there is little reason to doubt the accomplishment of this feat. There appears to be little apprehen- sion felt as to her safety at present and her ultimate appearance in port in good trim, ready for service against Spain. ——_~ro Some of the gentlemen who came to Washington to get office a few years ago would have been much surprised if the resignations which have recently occurred had been predicted. —_——- + +2 ____ Spain probably reasons that the longer an actual fight can be postponed, the easier it will be to represent the conflict to its population as a long and desperate one. ——- + +e —___.

It was twenty-one years ago that the in- strument was commercially perfected. Having now arrived at years of discretion, it is in order to see tne telephone show a sense of appreciation of modern conditions and adjust itself to the law of supply and demand. Unless some such process sets in it is to be feared that the rates for tele- Phonic service will continue to grow larger as the conditions favoring and even de- manding its use increase. The rates dure ing the first years of the telephonic enter- prise were reasonable. They have steadily increased save in such places as have been favored with competition or legislation. The ratio of profits has likewise increased. The cost of everything entering into the make-up of the instrument and the means of transmitting the current has decreased. The royalties have also gone down. Yet the rates have steadily mounted higher. Unless some new adjustment is effected, where will they be when the ‘phone is fifty years old? —__+ + +___ A Key West Reconcentrado Colony. Uncle Sam new has a reconcentrado prob- lem on his hands. The constant accumula- tion of prize ships at Key West means the gathering there under the chaperonage of this government of a considerable col- ony of Spanish subjects, ho must be fed and housed. It will be interesting to note the difference between American and Span- ish methods of caring for such seml-pris- oners of war. The Spanish process is well known. The American plan is decidedly to be preferred. Already houses have been procured, provisions have been supplied and everything has been dene to accom- modate these men, women and children. Probably in a short time some plan will be devised for the release of the civilians who have thus been taken under the tem- borary guardiarship of this beneficent gov- ernment. They are not to be regarded as prisoners save in extreme theory, and as soon as some decisicn is reached as to the disposal of the prizes there is no reason why the individuals should be further de- tained. ——_>+e—___. The Victory Habit. General Blanco is at the old Weylerian trick of reporting victories. He has sent word to Madrid that three American ‘“d stroyers” entered the harbor of Cardenas, which is about twenty-five miles east of Matanzas, and that the gunboat Nigera, which is rated at forty-three tons and car- ries on2 gun, repused them. In the firsi place, there are no “destroyers” in the American blockading squadron. In the sec- ond place, there is no report of an expedi- tion to Cardenas. In the third plac», the whole statement is untrue. The proposi- tion that this steam launch with a saluting gun could drive off three warships is so su- premely absurd that it brings back to mind the memories of the Butcher’s palmiest days in Havana, wh2n he was pacifying provinces by the score and capturing in- surgents by the hundred thousand. The victory habit is hard to shake. —__- + e = —___ It is well, after all, that this country was net entirely successful in its efforts to pre- vent filibustering.

From the New York World. It was well for the democrats to intro- duce an inccme tax amendment and put themselves on the record.

But it would be worse than tdle to rely upon an income tax for the revenues necded in the present, var, in support of which all democrats have voted. This war will be ended before such a tax can be passed upon by the court.
