Good Meawn for Delay-
President McKinley >e b< lo< sharp
ly odticiaed lor bis seeming y ddiaUiry
Italic a with reference to Cuba, but it 1
la jnot possible that he is wiser than 1
hit critics in delaying an actual da- ‘
claration of war as long ss possible
If the president really intends to
temporize with Spain, then these crito *
icisms are Jost, bat it is more probable
that he la simply sparring for wind; so
to speak. In other words, it is appar.
ent to all that this government is not .
yet prepared for hostilities. We have (
much to do before we are ready for the
fray, which, if It must come, promises
to De short and decisive
President McKinley has evidently
had the proper conception of the situ- (
ation, and for weeks past has been do- <
ing all in bis power to remedy it a« 1
rapidly as possible- But, unlike the
nations of Europe, the United States
has never kept her army and navy in
constant fighting trim, ao that when a
conflict threatens she hu much to do
to make ready.
A case in point is a report that
coined from Washington to the effect
that, ihe president baa admitted to a
congreeamMh, who was urging an im
mi diate declaration of war, that there
wis not enough ammunition in the
coo a try to last ten days in cased con
tinued hostilities He stated further
more that our agents hnd been unable
to obtain aoy considerable amount
abroad and that Spain bad some lime
ago secured all that was obtainable
and that now that country was well
supplied. ‘ .
If lrup> this alone is sufficient to jus
tify the delay that is caused by the
president’s tactics Al any rate, it is
very clear that it will not do fcr this
country to go off half cocked. Better
this delay than to fire a gun before we
have ammunition enough to back up
such ao act.
In the meantime, the president
should, and no doubt will, remain
steadfast in the conviction that hostil
ities in Cuba must cease. He yields
nothiug by referring the report on the
Maine disaster to the Spanish govern
ment. But gains a few mtye days in
which to make ready for tbs struggle
that still seems inevitable —Macon
News.
