Americans realize the importance ot knowing how to shoot to hit; that's why they win battles. Harry up boys! Lick 'em quick, so you can get back home to take part in the biggest 4th of July celebration we havo ever had. Thero is no mourning for American dead mixed with the rejoicing over Admiral Dewey's groat victory. Thero was no American dead. Jerry Simpson expresses the fear that this country is marching towards imperialism, nnd that the war with Spain wid result in increasing tho paco. We take it that Col. Wood, of the regiment of rc ugh rideis, is not of a jealous disposition, or ho would not have accepted "Toddy" Roosevolt for his lieutenant colonel. The men who have enlisted in our volunteer army diel so because they wish to fight the Spaniards therefore the administration cannot get them to Cuba too soon. We trust that the reported intention of the administration to send enough men to Cuba at once to sweep the Spanish off the island will be support? ed by facts That's the way thc people wish the war fought. It seems that the only way in which the Spaniards can destroy an Ameri? can vessel is to havo her anchored in one of their harbors and blow he r up Dewey laughed at their mines in Manila harbor; as they were exploded in front of his ship. The Republ cans are relying solely upon the war, which was .irtually forc? ed upon thom by the Democrat?, to enable them to elect a majority of the next House. It ren a ns to bc ascer? tained how the intelligent voters will respond to such an attempt to bam? boozle them. Wo can well believe that for once a Spaniard told the truth when a mem? ber of the Ministry said that Spain had not believed that the U. S. would go lo war, until the ultimatum was ac? tually soot. Spain bas been acting on that belief tor some years, but neither it nor any other country, is likely to do so again for some time. Short as the battle of Manila was there was a characteristic bit of Span- i ish treachery. A Spanish vessel sti uck J1 her flag in token of sui render, and wbon approached by a boarding party from one of our ship?, poured a volley into our little boat. The little boat escaped, but the treacherous Spanish j A ship was sent to the bottom with all ti cn bott' tl fis soon ns tho treachery wai observed. It really seems a pity to ho threshing a country thnt is ns bnd off at homo rs Sj iain is, but tl.is country has had enough of allowing a change of Mini try to influence American pi Hey; and it wi'l not occur a second time. Tho business n hand is to lick Spain, ie gardle; b t>l who o mi OOM the govern? ment of that cou;! ry, and tho go* tl wor.i ii La lin by Dow. y in tho Pa? cific is an incentive! to poshing the Mme so i of work in thc Atlantic. Ct . (ewart Woodford, U. S. Mins ter to Spain, has returned to Wash? ington and submittel a personal r - port of his experiences in Spain. Hi> report included an explanation of his tardiness in presenting the ultimatum to Spai", although that his ceas-dto be a matter of importance to tho pub? lic. Tho ultimatum was sent in or? dinary English, instead of in cipher, and was hold up by the Spanish Min? ister many hours before being deliv? ered to Woodford. Mr. McKinley t dd Woodford that tho ultimatum was sent in English to give the Spanish government an opportunity to do that Tery thine:. A HOSPITAL SHIP. The Hospital Ship "Solace," now beiug fitted up nt Newport News, i_ a new departure in the way of war slips. This will be an entirely peacoful vessel, whose mission in time of war will bc to gather up the v.ounded af I er an en? gagement and carry them with all speed to the nearest port. Sho will carry the Red Cross ensigD, will claim strict neutrality, and she will be in the strictest sense of the word a non-com? batant; she will not be armed, and will not be allowed to hava bo much a=i a revolver on board. Furthermore, she will carry no despatches, evei to the government, tince news is not neutral, but may bc to the advantage of one party or the other. She will bo sent out by our Government and attached to the American fleet. Spring humors, boils, pimplexemp? tions, sores, may be completely cured by purifying the blood with Hood's Sarsaparilla. __. ? __f. ? ? $200,00 IN GOLD GIVEN.
