C. F. 1IERBST
Italy has positively refused to
sell her warships to Spain at any
prioe.
First destroy the Spanish fleet
then Cuba will fall a willing cap-
tive to the demands of Uncle
Sam. __
Advertising in a good medium
invariably brings satisfactory
results. Try the Banner and be
convinced.
The cutting off of the coal sup-
plies of the Spanish fleet will
prove to be one of America's
strongest strategetic moves.
The cold-blooded, inhuman
butchery of old men, women and
children in Cuba by Spanish
troops cries aloud to all civilized
powers for vengeance; and, it is
in response to the appeals of
these helpless human beings that
Uncle Sam is interceding.
The Waco Telephone sizes up
the situation as follows: "Joe
Bayers is too busy with his offi-
cial duties to come home and en-
ter the campaign, and Mr. Crane
is too busy with his campaign to
stay at home and attend to his
official duties. That's the differ-
ence."
SPAIN is evidently depending
largely upon the timely interven-
tion of the European powers in
the settlement of her strained re-
lations with America, being fully
conscious of the fact that she is
wholly unprepared to engage in
hostilities with such a formidable
power as the United States.
The American people are both
gallant and patriotic, and are
prepared to back up the action of
the president and congress in
dealing with the Spanish ques-
tion. If the matter can be settled
diplomatically, so much the bet-
ter; if this be not attainable, then
we are in favor of applying such
force as may become necessary
to bring about a rigid compliance
With America's demands.
Romero Robledo, former Min-
ister of Justice in Spain, consid-
ers the proposed Spanish armis-
t'ce a concession which can lead
to no practical result, because it
lessons the dignity of Spain; it
implies dishonor for our people,
and is a direct insult to our army;
it is a base attempt at paltry
compromise. In a grave crisis
like the present it is impossible
to tell whether or not the existing
dynasty is safe. Robledo is the
pupil and heir of Canovas del
Castillo; like him he is an un-
compromising monarchist and a
believer in the fidelity of Gen.
Weyler, and it is believed by
many that either he or Weyler
will be "the man of the future"
in Spanish politics.
TEXAS ITEMS.
UNCLE SAM AND JOHN BULL.
Several senators of the United
States being interviewed in re-
gard to Lord Charles Beresford's
proposition for an alliance be-
tween Great Britain and the
United States, express them-
selves as opposed to a formal
treaty, offensive and defensive,
between the countries as involv-
ing inconvenient entanglements
for us and as impossible and im-
practicable.
The reason, says the Kansas
City Star, that the mass of intel-
ligent Americans argue against
su';h a treaty is that it is in a sense
unnecessary and superfluous.
Tli1 two nations are at present
abiding by satisfactory agree-
ments, made from time to time in
the past, which are sufficient,
and behind ail diplomatic under-
standings exists a sentiment, the
outgrowth of natural ties, a com-
mon history and devotion to com-
mon principles, especially of law
and government, which binds the
countries more firmly than would
any number of parchment treaties
with any possible display of seals
and signatures.
If each and all of the United
States senators were opposed to
any troaty with England, and the
British Parliament, in both its
branches, were absolutely hostile
to the United States, this feeling
an 1 sentiment of tho people of
the two countries would remain
unaffected. It is based on
humanity and common sense.
There always has been in En-
gland a class—the limits and ex-
tent of which it would be very
hn.-d to estimate or define—which
m;.y be described as anti-Ameri
can, or, as tho class itself would
say, anti-Yankee, and there is
and always has been a class in
tho United States which can
n rer see tho British lion without
a lesiro, at least, to give his tail
a twist, but neither in this coun-
try nor in Great Britain do these
hostile classes represent the peo
p'.u, the whole people, whose voice
is final. These minorities make
a good deal of noise, but that only
illustrates tho maxim, "The shal
lows murmor when the deeps are
dumb."
It is becoming tho custom to
s.ieak of the English-speaking
p6ople of the world. It is not
only tho United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland and
the United States that are con
sidered now, but great empires,
beBide, covering the larger area
of the earth. War between the
United States and Great Britain,
which simple and thoughtless
people talk about sometimes,
would wrap the world in flames.
Peace between these nations is a
guarantee that the greater por
tion of the land and water of the
globe shall know nothing of war's
alarms or sufferings. Not only
good-hearted and high-princi
pled human beings, but all claim-
ing a modicum of common and
ordinary sense, should wish that
peace to be perpetual.
