Two nations are armed for wai For weeks the preparations have been rushed as never before in the history of the world. To such a critical point as the crisis come that diplo- matic correspondence has ceased,and but the declaration of war is needed to sever all diplomatic (relations, In both countries the war party is in the ascendant. ‘The, armies and navies of both nations are ready to move on a moment's notice. The offensive operations have been mapped out, and all but the final order to move has been issued, Bat there is as yetno war, War is possible, even probable, but peace is by no means impossible. Were it not forthe fact that the hand of the Spaniard has been against progress, against humanity, against civilization, even against every gen-| erous impulse of the world; were it not for the fact that the cruelties of the Cuban the butcheries of thousanas of women and clildrev and the deliberate destruction of the battleship Maine are but evidences of the real nature of the Spanish people and nation,—were not this the case, the world might feel some pity for et as it is with foes withio and foea without, With revolutions in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippine islands, with an impending war with United States, Spain is threatened with a revolution at home, and a revolution that will not merely overturn the present dy- nasty but will end in a revolt of the imposed upper classes, by an unjust and unequal di- axes and the extravagance and venality tice. President to do certain acts against a foreign power and to use the army, nayy and militia, it is the act of con- gress declaring war—and not the President declaring war. If Spain abandons Cuba as required by the resolution, there will be no war— but if Spain refuses. the President marches and:sails bis army avd navy to carry out the order of congres: for war and to compel Spain to evac- uate the island. The resolution is itself the declaration of war by eon- gress. % Now that the country is fate” face with a war proposit be gratifying to,the average lis trast higbly satisfactory, and to con- it with “what might placed upon a silver basis, money in circulation in the war, in its entire history, the April treas- $1, circulation is also greater than in any the Spanish nation, be previous report, being $582,189,742 tion mude by the Chicago convention twenty-one months ago that the money of the country could o6€ materially ver. increase in money in circulation has been over $246,000,000, while the the increase in gold alone bas been over $125,000,000. people against the burdens by the brutal and grasping American manufacturers continue to gain standing in the estimation of the world and with this gain comes a vision of f the government. Furthermore Spain is without credit and without allies, In the event of a protracted struggle she has pow- steady increase in the foreign demand for them, This is illustrated by the presence in the United States of Hermann J, Olsen, a distinguished manufacturer of Norway, who is here to purchase supplies for his plant in no resources, vo recuperative ers. She must wage the whole war with her present navy. Every dollar spent in war, by that amount im- roverishes her people. Spain may choose an American war as the least of the evils pressing upon her. Pride and prejudice, ignorance and hatred may efface the last vestige of reason from her rules, aud war be the result. Such indeed is the probable outcome of the strug- gle Spain.

It has increased $246,333,445 in twenty- one months since the Chicago con America is in carnest and is thorough- ly prepared. With each vew day the preparations of the United States become more formidable, the blow with which she will open the war be- comes heavier. Oa the other hand Spain is gaining nothing. Her internal troubles are becoming more serious and her Weakness more open to the whole world, There may be war. But there is yet a possibility that at the last mo- ment Spain will yield, grant Cuba her freedon, make reparation for the destruction of the Maine and war be averted, The money vention took the ground that money of the country could not increase materially without free coinage of silver, and stands today at “high water mark,’’ —EE Cononavo, the home of the free silver propaganda, is rapidly increas ing her gold output, the work of the production for 1898 will show a gain of over $8,000,000, or 40 per cent, increase over last year, If the other gold fields of the world increase their output at a corresponding rate the adding to the gold of the world dur- ing 1898 will be at the rate of over a million dollars a day, THE PRESIDENT’S POWERS, The Democratic contention about the President declaring war and ‘usurping the power of the Legis« lative branch of the government,’”’ is as stupid as it is The direction to the President by con- gress to do certain acts and ase the army aud navy to accomplish them, if found necessary, when they relate to a foreign state, is of itself a decla- ration of war.
