With regard to the story of the Spanish-American War, we are very familiar with the influences of yellow journalism, especially by some newspapers like the Journal and the World. However, we have always neglected a few papers such as the New York Evening Post, Journal of Commerce and the Boston Transcript, who refused to join the atrocity hunting and supported President McKinley in his efforts to avoid intervention. In this report the writer would like to look over some selected editorials of the New York Evening Post, and to find out how it commented on the unnecessary war. Of course, it is difficult to make a complete and empirical analytical study due to the blurred microfilms and the limited time and space, but I believe the main points drawn from a number of editorials, still can give us a complete view of the Evening Post's stand.
