WAR FOR HUMANITY.

In our war against Spain the United States stands out alone, an unique figure, in the history of nations. Our action has no parallel in international law, and international lawyers sagely argue that there are no precedents which sustain us in making war on humanitarian grounds. We have ignored pre. cedents, and have opened the way to a better civilization. We are not only making a just war for humanity's sake, but are also making a new history and a new law. Meanwhile the nations stand aghast at our temerity; silent, sullen and threatening. In all the family of nations, only one, England, offers us the slightest show of sympathy and encouragement. All honor then to Great Britain, whose attitude in this instance has been as a bulwark against an undercurrent of hostility on the part of other European powers.

The spectacle of a nation going to war on purely humanitarian grounds, with nothing to gain and at an immense sacrifice of life and treasure, is well calculated to excite the wonder and admiration of all right-minded people. The barbarities of Spain toward her own people were of such a character as to

have demanded the attention and unanimous protest of all the nations of the earth, but it remained for the United States alone, after exhausting persuasive methods, to finally say to the Spanish government that

"The abhorrent conditions which have existed for more
than three years in the island of Cuba, so near our own
borders, have shocked the moral sense of the people of
the United States, have been a disgrace to Christian
civilization, culminating, as they have, in the destruc-
tion of a United States battleship, with 266 of its
officers and crew, while on a friendly visit in the har-
bor of Havana, and cannot longer be endured." *

"That it is the duty of the United States to demand,
and the Government of the United States does hereby
demand, that the Government of Spain at once relin-
quish its authority and government in the island of
Cuba, and withdraw its land and naval forces from
Cuba and Cuban waters.

What a grand contribution to the world's war record is that. Is it any wonder that the nations stand amazed at such a demand? To have demanded of Spain a cessation of her barbarous methods would have been considered by many a very bold step, but when we say to her that she must abandon Cuba and relinquish its government, we take a stand in defence of human rights and justice without a parallel in history, and which has not even been dreamed of in the philosophy of nations.

In addition to this, we at the same time tell the world
"That the United States hereby disclaims any disposi-
tion or intention to exercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or
control over said island, except for the pacification
thereof, and asserts its determination, when that is ac-
complished, to leave the government and control of the
island to its people."

Have we not a right to expect from all civilized governments at least their moral support in our unselfish endeavor to
