WHAT NEXT?
REPUBLICAN LEADERS
A HUNDRED PROBLEMS
(Received 20th April, 11 a.m.) LONDON, 19th April. Now Spain is a Ecpublic, what will happen next? The "Morning Post's" special correspondent at Madrid gives a vivid picture of Republican leaders confronted suddenly with the necessity of forming decisions upon a hundred problems arising from tho revolution, find deliberating about the election programme, maintenance of order, the Constitution, and so forth. "We shall take the land," said the Minister of National Economy, "and divide it among the peasants, but we shall bo gentlemen and there will bo compensation," "Our pet projects are liberty and progress," said tho Minister of Finance But up to the present there seems to be agreement only on one point, namely, the holding of tho elections., These are probable about live months hence. Nobody knows the'extent to which the monarchial parties will hold together or if monarchism has definitely ceased to be a political force. The correspondent that the best chance of restoration of the monarchy, which is admittedly remote, lies in the prospects of the chaos which is likely to ensue as soon as tho political parties feel secure enough from outside danger to attack each other.
