bravehearted man has to strike down the ruffian who in his presence beats a woman or a child and will not desist what if not for this docs God make a man or a nation strongGenl Harrison ina speech to Indiana troops A CITY daily said the other day nothing happens now except war news because the newspapers havent space to print it And ihetruth is that there is so much war news that a big daily can scarcely print it A weekly or a small daily is overwhelmed the mass of matter that might be published ELSEWHERE we give a full de scriptive article of the Kentucky Commercial Convention to be held inLouisville May II and 12show- ing the objects and scope of the IundertakingFestival will also be held in that city next week on May 9 10 and ii It is a big week for the city of Louisville and for the State of KeDtuc rThese undertakings dawrve encouragement IF there vas no other achievement by our navy than the destruc tion of the Spanish fleet at Manila and the capitulation of the Spanish forces at that fortified city to Commodore Dewey commanding our Asiatic Squadron the American flag would be honored throughout the world as it has never been honored before Other things have happened and will happen which will make men take off their hats to the stars and stripes As an incident of the Hispano American war entered upon for humanities sake and accompanied with a stirring battle cry the nui sance of Spanish misrule in the Phillipincs will be abated as well as the Cuban outrages It is a proud distinction for Americans to feel that it has come to pass that they are the favored people upon whom has fallen the duty of chas tising the Spanish barbarian and driving hun back to the narrow confines of his own race TilE Paris Temps now says editorially The United States put into the balance a too crushing superiorly of resources and forces to leave a doubt as to the result This is certainly trticas even the Spaniards are discovering but the French and other continental newspapers are making a very wry face over their belated realization of the superier force irrcsistable prowess and incxaustable resources ot the United Stotcs For ages to come this discovery will produce the most wholesome respect for the United States on the part of European people and nations SAM JONES in arguing against hostilities last week said Vhat logic is there in a bullet What adjustment is there in burn ing gunpowder Commodore Dewey has just proven there is enough of both logic and adjust ment in a war that must be fought There are times in the history of nations when war seems the hand of God A preacher said not long since that IIwar came after all there had been done to prevent it he would regard it as providential Men may die but there are greater issues than the length of any mans earthly sojourn Will They Courier Journal Will they catch the Oregon Will they Did the dog catch the railroad locomotive and if so what did he do with it Push the War With Vigor From the GlobeDemocrat There is not and never will be a humanitarian way to make war When humamtarianism rules the world wars will be a thing of the past Vars must be conducted with all due regard to civilized usages and with a spirit of kind ness to helpless prisoners But the avoidance of action because it may hurt the enemy is a grave de lusion to find aplace at the council board It will lead to a loss ol opportunities always a serious matter during a period like the present War that hurts is the kind of war that wins Never yet was a war settled by moral suasion and philanthropic overtures Human nature under the spur ot war turns inevitably to arms and physical force No army in history ever laid down its weapons on the strengthof benevolent appeals and kindly propitiation The Spanish say they have owned Cuba 400 years and they intend to hold it until put out by force and if able to remain they will govern it in their own way regardless of out side views Such is the Cuban problem The island will be in dependent when the Spaniards are thoroughly whipped with cannon rifles and machetes and the sooner the business is accomplished the better for all concerned- It is said that the sending of an army expedition to Cuba will be postponed on account of the health of the troops If this is to be the policy the regiments already at Key West and Tampa should be ordered north Those towns arc far less favorable to health than many of the harbors of Cuba and are in the same tropical latitude In a few days the destination of the Cape Verde fleet will be known If it is headed for the portrand a sufficient army force sent there to hold them The insurgents need this cooperation They require arms ammumtiou and supplies under our personal supervision The health of our troops will be better in almost any of the Cuban ports outside the few known burnI Tampa Army life in a Cuban harbor will agree with the soldiers because it means occupation and ofIsum mer and the state is by no means free from the diseases identified with the Cuban heated term Commodore Dewey has just given a noble example of decisve war He bore down upon the forts and fleet of Manila with shot and shell No
