COMMODORE DEWEY also has re-
piled to those eminent jingoes who
have insisted that we need Hawaii as z
base of operations and for a coaling
station on the Pacific ocean, says the
Milwaukee Sentinel.
Following this line of argument if
the battle ship Oregon arrives safely at
Cuba in time to join the North Atlantic
squadron and assist in naval engage
ment with the Spanish feet, the Sen
tinel will probably conclude that if is
foolish to any longer advocate canal
connecting the Pacific and the Gulf CT
Mexico. Dewey defeated the Spanish
at Manila, ergo. we have no need of
Hawaii. The Oregon successfully
rounded Cape Horn and joined Samp
sons fleet, ergo, no need of a canal

| In case the Oregon, which is no"
approaching Cape San Rogue, is in
tercepted by the Spanish feet, consist
ing of four cruisers and three torpedo
boats, said to be lying in wait al
that place, according to the Philadel
phia Press it will have the following
fighting chance:
The united tonnage of the Spanish
feet is about three to one of the Ore
Gon. The united fire Of the eight III
inch guns on the tour Spanish vessels
is a little more than the weight of the
four shots of the four l3-inch guns Oh
the Oregon. The forty 5.46-inch guns
on the four Spanish cruisers are not
much heavier than the eight 0-lnch and
four 6-inch guns of the Oregon. The
Oregon has seventeen inches of armUl
over vital parts The ll-inch guns OF
the Spanish vessels can perforate this,
judging from experiment, only at point
blank range. At $50 yards an English
breech loading 12-inch gun will pene
trate 1873 inches OF steel, and at 7OO
yards a 9.2-inch gun can only pene
trate 142. With these limits, taking
the chances of actual fighting, the
curved plates, ETC., it may fairly be
said that the Oregon is proof as to her
central citadel against any Spanish
gun up to 500 yards or less. AS to the
effect of Spanish fire on her 3inch deck
at each end, that is another matter. A
5 inch gun will hull this at 5000 yards,
but can reach no vital part.
At 5000 yards, on the other hand,
the Oregon's 13-inch guns will cut
through eighteen inches of armor. In
other words, granting hit, the Oregon
would be able to fire a shot clean
through the Spanish cruisers at range
where the Sp' nish fire would be in
effective. The weak side of the
Oregon's position is that her long 13
inch guns, which stick yards out, are
liable to be damaged by any chance B.
inch shot at even three miles distance
if one hits-and this might disable a
turret, putting two guns out of action.
AS the Oregon's guns are few, but
powerful, the chances of an accidental
shot disabling are greater than within
the wide division of gunfre in the
Spanish feet.

IN Spain they are holding high car
nival. The Conservatives, Republicans
and Weylerites are playing a game OF
teeter- totter on the throne of the ruling
dynaty as fulcrum. With the Con
servatives doing duty as balance now
the Republicans are up and now the
Weylerites, with the result that the
Queen and her protege, Alfonso, are
doing a good deal of tottering beneath
the pressure. Under these circum-
stances old Spain is trying to do battle
With the United States. Her doom
must come sure and soon. A house
divided against itself will most GER
tainly fall SPANS cause is hopeless
It is inconceivable that she does not
herself see her woeful piedicament and
realize that to preserve any vestige OF
her nationality she should bring the
war with this country to speedy end
by making the concessions necessary to
bring about that result.

Lost An Eye.

The many friends in this city of Mr..
Cohen, formerly connected with the
firm of Lewis q Co., will be greatly
panied to hear of his misfortune in the
loss of his left eye. Some time ago he
received a severe blow in the face and
it took effect in his eye. The wound
grew steadily worse and he went to a
hospital in Milwaukee for treatment
and few days ago it became necessary
to remove the eye to keep him from
total blindness. The operation was
very successful and the eye will be re-
placed with an artificial one.

SCHOOL BOARD MEET.
Plans For the New School Board Not Yet
Accepted.

Plans For the New School Board MOI Yet
Accepted.
The School Board held a special
session at the City Hall Tuesday eve
ming, for the purpose of examining
plans and specifications for the cree
ton of the new school building.
The Board had asked large number
of architects in Chicago, Racine and
Milwaukee to present plans for the new
building and as a result six very elegant
designs were presented. Among the
architects presenting plans was Charles
Dickhaut, of this city, and W. D.
Kimball, an old Kenosha boy, who has
gained quite reputation as an archl-
tect in Milwaukee. No immediate
action was taken in regard to the
building, but the plans we're referred to
the committee on buildings and grounds
for consideration, and they will report
at the regular meeting next Tuesday
night.
The old question of the fire escape
for the Central building was brought
up, but the Board, after careful con-
sideration decided that money was
needed in too many other places to do
anything in the fire escape line at
present.
The filters which were ordered placed
in the schools will be in working order
in short time.
After allowing the usual number of
bills, the Board adjourned to meet next
Tuesday night.

his peace policy, said James Madison
couldnot be kicked into fight, but at
the close of his first administration they
aided in electing him to a second term,
as an expression Of their satisfaction
and confidence. McKinley's case SO
far is not unlike his distinguished
predecessor, and he may, like him,
serve a second term in the White
House because of his wisdom in the
present emergency.

The storm that swept over the North
Atlantic coast region on Saturday was
phenomenal for this season OF the year.
The month of November has not wit.
messed its equal. :.
Beginning in Michigan, the high wind
and snow rushed eastward to meet
second storm, which started If the
North Carolina coast at about the same
time.
The junction Of the two created the
remarkable elemental disturbance tnat
played such havoc with railroad and
trolley lines on Saturday night and in
the early hours Of Sunday.
Wilmington, in spite Of the heavy fall
of snow, which temporarily cI"gged its
streets, escaped with comparatively little
camage and Inconvenience.
New England felt the full force OF
tt Z storm, which reached the dignity OF
o blizzard in Boston, and many vessels
we're driven ashore, with the loss OF sew
eral lives.
The exact amount OF destruction is YET
unknown, but the indications go to show
it was extensive.
