By UNCLE sILAs.

There we're no telegraphs so years
ago, IN 1916, except in few of the
Eastern and Middle States. nor were
there any railroads south of Cincinnati
News was carried by the slow mail
process, on sailing vessels, steamboats,,
coaches and on horseback.
Hence, the information of the criti
cal condition in which Col Taylor and
his small army was placed, was Great
ing excitement for several DAYS in
Louisiana before the government au-
thori!ies in Washington city were
aware OF the danger of the Federal
army in Texas.
Hon. Isaac Johnson was Governor
of Louisiana. with the Legislature OF
the State in session.
Patriotism. aroused the warlike feel
ings of all classes. and the liveliest
sympathy for Col. Taylor's command
and their liability to be crushed by
the Mexican forces, thought to be, and
were. vastly superior in numbers to
the American force, fired the mind and
ambition of every Louisianian. There
was no time to await action by the
government at Washington.
The Legislature promptly voted an
appropriation of 100000 90 for rails s.
ing, equipping aud transporting four
regiments Of volunteers to the relief of
Col Taylor.
Gov. Johnson said E: .:In IN incrcdi-
ble short space of time several thou
sand brave and devoted men were
forwarded to the seat of war where
they happily arrived in time to enable
Col. Taylor more confidently to assume
an offensive attitude against the en-
emy and to crown the brilliant virto-
ries of the Stll and 9th of May 1916
already achieved. with the conquest
Of Matamoras." Notwithstanding the
promptnesS With which the Lonisian-
ians rushed to the succor of the little
band Of patriots comprising the army
of observation they would have been
too late to save it had its safety de-
pended upon such relief.
The Mexican forces crossed the Rio
Grande, besieged Fort Brown and
advanced in the direction of the forces
of Col. Taylor. The old hero having
heard that Fort Brown was attacked,
Immediately set forward to its relief.
On May 9Th the two armies met on the
