WAR WITH SPAIN.
, The war has begun. There is
f no longer any doubt of it. A lew
things should always be kept in
I' mind about it in order that we
. may have a clear view as to its
. in oral bearings. War is a very
k' bad thing in many respects. Hut
^ there are some worse things than
war. .
1. What are the c<inm>n of this
war? Here a statement of facts
is all important.
Spain lias had possession o! the
. island since iis discovery and has
always been oppressive, overbearing,'cruel.
Several times in i!<
last sixty years the peopl have
revoueu an?i tried tr? throw on the
Spanish yoke. They did so in
, 1 SoO. War i.:.. d the: ;:om 5c

above) but not by Gen. Blanco.
In 1 STttthe Spaniards massacred
the crew of our vessel the Viri
ginius.
In 189$ they murdered 26G
men on the Maine and destroyed
tho ship. How long are they to
bo allowed to go on thus?
This war, on our part, is not
waged for the sake of war or
Irotn bloodthirstiness but to prevent
war; to stop the war ini

the occasion of further

say that, if alter the destruction;
of the Maine, out government had!

' and encouraged at least a half
id-;: mi wars upon us from different
Kuropean powers. So i: is liter

Now that we are in it let
