MISTAKES OF SPANISH DII'LO
flACY. The rcipiesl of the Spanish iuvern-nu-nt
that 'onsii l- Jeiieral I'itzhuh
Let-should he recalled from Havana
was a serious mistake on the part of
tin- Sairasta ministry. The refusal
f Trcs'idi-nt McKinlcv to consider
the recall of (ieneral Lee, on the
rroiind t hat lie lias borne himself
throughout this crisis with judg
ment, lidclity and courage, to the
President's ent ire satisfaction." was
to have been cxpertcd. and justilics
the t-ontiileiiee which the people
repose in t heir 'hii-f Keciiti e. The
Madrid authorities were doubtless
moved to request the recall of our
OmsiiM ieneral at Havana bv the
pressure of t he ji ugn clement in Spain,
which is probaldy quite as mdsv and
inconsiderate as the same clement in
the I'nited States. Inasmuch as it
is Spain's interest ami probably her
policy to preserve peaceful relations
with tin- I'nited States, the Saasta
ministry obviously should refrain
from any act ion which tends to in
llame public opinion in cit her count rv.
Furthermore, the presence of a man
of ('cneral Lee's calm courage at
Havana at this time is as advantage
ous to Spain as it is to the I'nited
States. A man of less nerve and
judgment miht hac become panic
stricken at the time of the disaster
to the Maine, ami have sent dis
patches to Washi ny;t on which would
have precipitated action by this
rovernnu-nt. Neither lnufd the
Spanish ovcrnineiit take otl'cnse at
t he forwarding of relief supplies' to
the noncombatants on vcs-cls of
the I'nited States navy. The ships
that have been selected for this
purpose are not of a formidable t v pe,
and have been instructed to return
to Key West as soon as the supplies
have been delivered. The Madrid
aut liorit ies did not object to the ap
peal by the State Pepartmeut for aid
for the destitute reconccntrados. and
as they have not yd admitted
formally and otliiially that a state of
war exists in Cuba, they should not
object to a brief visit from an
American naval vessel on a chairta
blc mission. Baltimore Sun.
Tm: fact that an e-Kcderal sol
dier in the White House, and an c
Confcderate soldier a Consul-( 'cner
al to Cuba, arc the leading actors in
thejrrave situation confronting the
country is an object lesson of a
united country that speaks volumes.

t hiuk t w ice before exclaiming in horror
at his hot-blooded kinsman, a few

presses his disapproval of the negro's

Suppose all newspapers in all sec
tions would manifest such a spirit as
that and seek to be fair and t ruthf ul !J
What a tide of ood feeling and real
fcllow.-hip would set in! If the free
and fran k .statement s of the ('ouriuit
characterize the utterances of t he
Nortli as to the South there would
bea better understanding, and the
truth in its majesty would assert
itself. The !niirnut has eves to see
clearly the defects of its own section
and to do vigorous sweeping at its
own door rat her than to apply the
lash to uiioiVciidiii"' Southerners who
deplore depravity and castigate
vv rons and cruelties wit h all severit y
and sineerit v.
The New York Eft uinj Post, one of
the neatest, best edited of American
dailies, views the South Carolina
affair from a higher stand-point than
we could have hoped for. It shows
its riht apprehension of the situa
tion in the South is saving of the
whites that they will not submit to
the rule of the blacks, no matter
what may be the numerical sup
preitiaev of the blacks." That is true,
and the Nortli would be wise to un
derstand it. It is true as to ignorant
black-, and it will be precisely true
when all are educated, if that "jrood
time" should ever come. The Aryan
race dominates or dies. That is the
plain Eno-Iish of it. It never plays
second in any land, whether it is
whites or black-, yellow or red race
that are numerically stroner. The
l-'fi n i hi j I 'ust says:
"We do not think that the feeling in
this resp'-ct is greatly different in the
North. Lynch inj; is less prevalent here
than there, mid we should hope that
South Carolina is the only Southern
State where respect for human life is so
low that such an outrage as that at
Lake City is possible. But our people
would resent bitterly the appointment
of uero officials, ,-unl no republican
administration ever named a black man
as postmaster in the North. Anybody
who knows anything: about New Eng
land is well aware that, if a lazy negro,
whom no one iu the place ever saw be
fore, should be given charge of the otlice
in a yankee village, and let the service
run down, he would have a "'mighty un
comfortable time." That the rule of a
black niajoritv would be intolerable in
the North is shown by the prejudice
against giving the negro equal rights in
business opport unities and iu residence
quarters a, prejudice which, Northern
negroes complain, is increasing, and
which is fast restricting them to menial
occupations for a living and distinct ne
gro quarters of the tour, for a home."'
That is fair, penetrating- ami plain
ly put. The Southern whites are not
in any sense hostile to the negroes,
but wish them all blessing and
abounding- prosperity and happiness.
But they will not be boasted Jv t hem
long, and it is better for both" races
that this should be fully understood.
Neg-fo rule would mean nero ruin
for themselves and prostration and
racial wars tor the South. Let there
be peace and good will between the
two races in the South. Wilmington

GROWTH OFTHE N ATION AL SPIRIT.
Washim.i'un. March 1. Hon John
J. lngalls returned yesterday from a
lecture tour through Alabama. Ceor-c-ia
and the Carolinas. Speaking of
the situation in those parts, he said
t his morning:
The pulse, temperature and res
piration of the South are absolutely
normal. There is no fever nor excite
ment, no delirum nor frenzv in anv
locality that I visited. The temper
of the people is rational, patriotic
and admirable in every wav.
I he tones of the newspapers is
remarkably judicial and conserva
tive. The gravity of the situation is
admitted by every one and the pos
sibility of war conceded, but the at
titude of the administration is cor
dially approved, and the conduct of
the President under personal provo
cation is especially commended.
The most gratifying indication to
me is the growth and development
of the national spirit in the South.
The narrow provincialism of the
past has gone. The points of the
compass are fast disappearing from
olities, and State lines are fading
from the map. Nothing is less de
sdrcd than war. but if war should
eome the veterans of Lei- and Stone
wall Jackson would strive to surpass
the veterans of (iraut and Sherman
in their devotion to the honor and
glory of the nation and its flag."

MORE EVIDENCE OF TREACHERY.
A Discovery That Throws Another
Dark Shadow of Suspicion Over
Spain.
Ev idence has just been brought to
light in this city of the existence in
s."l of a tunnei extending from Moro
Castle in Havana harbor.
The evidence consists of a photo
graph of the entrance to the tunnel
ami the relation of detailed informa
tion on the subject by Mrs. Lucy (i.
Hunter as it was told to her by her
late husband, Dr. (ieorje L Hunter,
who himself penetrated the passage
for several miles and had the picture
of t he entrance made.
Mrs. Hunter has lived in this city
for several years, and her home is at
) San Pedro avenue. Dr. Hunter
was devoted to scientific pursuits
and the acquirement of knowledge,
and as he possessed considerable
weal tii he spent much of his time in
travel and study.
In lSof, before his marriage, he
went to Cuba and remained in Ha
vana several months. He contracted
yellow fever there and his stay was
prolonged by his sickness.
While in Havana Dr. Hunter be
came acquainted with many promi
nent citizens and army otlioers, and
formed a close friendship with sever
al ollicers connected with Moro
Castle. They extended him many
courtesies, and linally became so in
timate with him as to impart to him
the secret of the tunnel beneath
the waters of Havana harbor and al
lowed 111 lit to explore it.
Dr. Hunter followed the tunnel for
several miles, and found that it
branched out into an extensive and
intricate .-cries of sub-passages, cov
ering a large area of the bed of the
bav. At some points the top of the
passage was so clo-e to the bottom of
the bay that he could hear the waters
booming above him.
The cut ranee t o t he tunnel was a
lar'o- cave exteiidiii"- partly under El
i . - i .
Moro and partly out beneath t he bay.
Dr. Hunter secured a photograph of
the entrance which had been taken
from inside the tunnel. Stalactites
hanging from the lop of the cave are
shown in the picture. According to
a label on the photograph it was
made by the linn of Friedrich y Co.,
who were probably the official pho
tographers. When lie married, Dr. Hunter told
his wife all he had learned of this
remarkable .submarine passage and
when he died he left his photograph
ic proof of its existence in her pos
session. It will be remembered that shortly
after the battleship Maine was blown
ii j the statement was made that the
Spaniards had submarine passages
under Havana harbor. The Spanish
authorities promptly denied t his, and
stated that if a tunnel had ever ex
isted beneath the harbor the entrance
to it had long since been closed up
and all traces of it lost. It was on
account of this denial that Mrs.
Hunter gave out the important infor
mation she possesses on the point.
The information divulged by Mrs.
Hunter is of momentous importance
at this time, when the international
situation over the destruction of the
Maine is so critical. (Jreater strength
than ever is given to the suspicion
that Spanish t reachery brought about
the disaster. It is hardly possible
that the large cave giving access to
the tunnel could have become oblit
erated in forty-four years as claimed
by the Spanish authorities, and if the
extensive sub-passages remained un
impaired most any vessel in the har
bor could have been blown up.
A far more serious consideration
involved is that none but Spanish au
thorities could have had access to the
tunnel, and if the Maine was deliber
ately blown up the terrible responsi
bility can be laid only upon the
Spanish government, and not upon
wanton miscreants.
The above is taken from the San
Antonio (Texas) Daily Express of
March 4th.
The lady referred to (Mrs. Lucy Y.
Hunter) is a sister of Mrs. J. Y.
Harris, of Henderson, and the mother
of Miss Lucy Hunter, who made
frequent visits here before her mar
riage. NOW IS THE TIME.
The Chicago Tiiiics-lArald declares
with some impatience that the time
has come for the present administra
tion to redeem its platform obliga
tions with respect to Cuba, and that,
in the event of its failure to meet
the demands which are now made
upon it, defeat at the polls for the
Republican party in the next presi
dential election will be inevitable.
Ordinarily, the expressions of this
conscrvat i ve newspaper are decidedly
temperate, but in addressing itselfto
the present situation it drops its cus
tomary equipoise and discusses the
problem of the hour with consider
able emotion. To quote briefly from
some of the recent editorial expres
sions of this paper, the following
brief paragraphs are selected:
The time is up and the linal step,
however cost ly, must be taken and
will betaken by President McKinlcv.
if he would avoid the Cuban perils that
hover
over Ins party
and his coun-
try.
The vultures circling over the
wreck of the Maine in the harbor of
Havana have more patriotism than
the political vultures who are poised
to take advantage of further delay in
regard to Cuba.
Do what we mav, we cannot avoid
the possibility of war over Cuba. And
in view of that last resort, the Amer
ican people, wishing and praying for
peace, must make every preparation
for war. Even though the United
States should offer to assist Cuba to
buy her independence by guarantee
ing the payment of the purchase
price, administering the revenues of
the island to secure itself, thercisno
means of knowing that Spain would
accept the proposition.
Intervention in Cuba, peacefully if
we can. forcibly if we must, is imme
diately inevitable. Our own intern
al political conditions will not per
mit its postponement. Who that has
marked the signs of the times does
not see that -war for Cuban liberty"
looms before us as the otilv rallvi ng
standard f the le;
national discontent.

RTZ LEE TO THE FRONT.
A Washington special savs: - A
ipiiet sensation which was imparted
to only a favored few. was the pro
posed appointment of ConsuM Jeneral
Fitzhugh Lee, at Havana, as a Major
(ieneral of the I'nited States army in
the event of war with Spain. It is
stated on pretty good authority that
it was the intention of President
Cleveland to make this appointment,
under the same circumstances, and
Mr. McKinley, feeling that it would
receive the umpialitied endorsement
of the American press and people,
has determined to make it.
Of course Major (Jeneral Miles
would be commander-in-chief if Lieu
tenant (ieneral Schotield was not
temporarily called back into service,
to assume command.
It is stated that the appointment
of General Lee to a Major Generalship
would remove him from the political
held, but upon his retirement it
would also secure him the salary of
that ollice for life. However this
mav be, it is certain, on the authori
ty of a member, that this matter
was discussed by the Foreign Rela
tions Committee of the House, and
there is every reason to believe that
in the event of war General Lee will
be called into the service of the
United States army on the island of
Cuba.
In this connection two reminis
cences may be of interest. In 1S72
(ieneral Grant, in a talk with a num
ber of gentlemen in 'Cleveland,
Ohio, said that he had been in a po
sition to judge of the lighting quali
ties of the men who fought him and
if the time came in his life-time
when the United States must go to
war with an outside government he
would expect to find among the men
who fought him from "OT to "(Jo the
ablest and bravest defenders of the
old Hag.
ISeing asked to particularize, (ien
eral (iraut said: "Fitzhugh Lee
would make his mark if a war offered
the opportunity.'"
The dispatch quoted above says
President Cleveland had it in his
mind, in the event of war with Spain
to make (ieneral Lee a Major Gen
eral. When Mr. Cleveland wired (ieneral
Lee to meet him in Washington on
important business, resulting in
General Lee's appointment as Con
sul (ieneral to Cuba, a Hcgistcr man
was one of the lirst, if not the lirst,
to congratulate him on his appoint
ment, and the Jugisler man being
something of a jingo remarked that
while he wss sincere in his congratu
hit ions he would umeh rather see the
general at the head of a cavalry force
to fight the Spaniards in Cuba. The
(ieneral smiled and said: '-That may
come later."
Now putting this and that togeth
er, it may be assumed or at least
guessed, that there has been for a
long time a sort of wheel within a
wheel.
But in any event the best man to
day to command an army of the
United States in Cuba, if such an
army becomes necessary is Fitzhugh
Lee. Danville Ilegisttr.
BLADDER TROUBLES.
The bladder was created for one pur
pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is notl iable to any form of
disease except by one of two ways. The
first way from inipcrtect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from careless
local treatment of other diseases.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy tidr
neys is the chief cause of bladder troubles.
It is comforting to know that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Koot fulfills every wish In quickly
curing bladder and urinary troubles. It
corrects inability to hob! urine and scald

effects following use of liquor, wine or
