Only One WON'T n.

Not more than once in lifetime does
man experience SO deep a sense of
shame for his race as that inspired by
the detailed accounts of the sinking of
the French line steamship La Bcur-
gogne. That there are monsters of
selfish cowdrdice and bestial cruelty
wearing the form of man is a thought
we are able to bear only when we re-
member the lofty courage and devotion
to a high ideal which leads men to sac
rifice their lives, as American soldiers
do today.
1t is the distinction of the American
that everywhere and always he recog-
niZes the claims of womanhood to a spa
cial consideration. 1t is seen in the
small, but significant, matter of the
surrender of his seat in car to a wo-
man, and in his constant effort to secure
to her any advantage in any situation.
This spirit of reverence for womanhcod
reaches it's highest exhibition when he
voluntarily goes to his death that a
woman may be saved. 1t is a thing of
frequent experience, and so usual and
so sincere is this reverence that the
American is peculiarly shocked by such
an utter disregard of all the claims of
woman as the worthless brutes of the
French steamship displayed. No at
tempt was made to save the women and
children, and these who tried to save
themselves were knocked down or beat
en- back to their death. Not enc, but
most, of the sailors. frenzied by brut-
ish fear and determined to save their
own miserable lives. attacked those who
had the first claim to life. Most of
the one hundred and siXty-nine surviv-
ors were members of the crew, the rest
being second and third-class passen-
gers. and only one woman.
1t would be grateful to the feelings
of every decent soul, and it would be
the suggestion of prudence, to forget
the appalling scene, burying it out of
sight and memory. but for one lesson it
carries. The worse than dogs Who saved
themselves at the cost of the lives of
women and children belong to the kind
of creatures who are without a trace
of respect for women. American men
have been chaffed and scolded for the
degree to which they carry their cour-

A Critical Situation.

AS far as can be learned from the
press dispatches, and what little infor-
nation can be gathered at the White
House and the departme the situa-
ton in front of Santiago is far from sat
iSfactory. There are Indications that
the chief commanders of the military
and naval forces at the scene of con-
fiict are not in accord, and it is certain
that delay in bringing the siege to an
issue has terribly reduced the effective
ness of our land forces through sick
ness It is now stated that our sic guns
have not been landed. and that our ar
my is inferior to the enemy in respect
of available artillery; only three-inch
guns on our side being opposed TO the
siX-inch pieces of the Spaniards. Our
brave boys ars represented as spendi.g
their days lying in the wet, long grass
on the line of investment. continually
exposed to heavy fire, underfed and
becoming weaker and less able for bat
tie duty every hour.
Some ugly things are beginning to be
said. and they demand the instant at
tention of the President. Sampson,
with his pernicious prudence, we have
treated of hitherto. Apparently he will
not move to the relief of his colleague.
nor even land the bluejackets and ma
rines he could now easily spare, to r.
l,eve the tension at the front and render
a reverse to our arms less likely to Oc-
cur. The Spanish garrison has been
largely increased by accessions from the
columns of Pando and Luque. General
Wheeler is reported by one correspond
ent as lying miserably i'll, but full of
pluck, on poncho in the pass with his
men. The same authority declares that
the general commanding in chief, Shaft
ter. has never been within two miles #
our extreme advanced position. He.
too. is i'll. as might have been expected
of man of his ponderous weight and
liability to climatic disease.
Opposed to these reports. We have the
alleged confidence of the war author-
ties that Santiago will surrender with
out further resistance. 1t may be so.
but there is nothing that would seem to
promise it to the mind OF a soldier.
Something ought to be done, and done
today In any event it is murder to delay
and vacillate in the hope cf capitulation
under pacific blockade" The foolish
ness of that policy has been Demon
strated in a costly way before. Our
troops are dropping with fever faster
than they would in an assault on
Torars works. Suspense and suspicious
of incompetency are becoming intole.-

CELEBRATE THE FOURTH.
Our Troops Have Fun in Sight of
the Enemy.


With the Army at the Front, near San
tiago, July 4. Observation-Disclosures
Day was celebrated by our troops on the
firing line with band concerts, 600 yards
from the enemy's entertainments and
within hailing distance of Santiago. The
bands of the Third and Tenth Cavalry
and Of the Thirteenth, Sixteenth and
Twenty Infantry played THE Star
Spangled Banner and Dixie" amid wild
cheering from our troops. The Spaniards
heard it and prepared for an attack
They could not understand the jollifica-
ton. No guns were fired during the
night. but an attack from the enemy was
anticipated. the men sleeping on their
arms in the rifle pits and entertainments.
Thirty-fve were buried, fourteen of the
Seventy-first New York and twelve of the
Thirteenth Infantry.
Five of the wounded died today in the
First Division hospital The rest are do
ing well. 20
A large number of the dead, principally
Spaniards. still lie on the battlefield, with
bluecOats here and there among them.
Large re-enforcements from the rear
were sent to our firing lines today, and
tons of ammunition have been carried for
ward.
The siege guns are not in position. but
are said to be on the way to the front
Skaters headquarters has been moved
forward two miles. A balloon sent up
by the Signal Corps took observations of
Santiago, and Spanish re-enforcements
were reported as arrived. Everything is
ready for the siege of the city of Santiago.
Fully 5000 women. children and non
combatant males have left Santiago and
thousand reached the American lines
seeking aid.

Our First Imperial Colony.

A new and splend d American victory
ruption has been achieved in the United
States Senate under the non-partisan
generalship of the fearless patriotic
commanders, Morgan and Davis. The
President needs but to sign his name
to the Newlands resolution-and we
hope to hear that he has been able to do
it before this edition goes to press-aLd d
the Hawaiian Islands will be a part of
this glorious imperial republic.
The sudden collapse of obstruction
yesterday, and the two-thirds vote in
favor of annexation at half past five
O'Clock, show how futile has been the
effort to block the wheels of American
progress and to make the welfare and
material advancement of the country
subservicnt to the interests of monopoly
and backwoods local provincialism. The
vote which carried the Newlands reso-
luton would also have ratified the
annexation treaty If that measure had
been preferable under all circumstances.
Unstinted rejoicing fills the land. The
AHltIlCdH peOple ltSl lIldt d new anu
splendid era of national growth and ex-
pansion has dawned with the acquis!-
tion of Hawaii. They see in the future
the picture of an imperial comme rec
following the flag of a magnificent ma
Wy. and the Stars and Stripes floating
over not only the Gibraltar of the Pa
cific, but other colonial possessions-the
Philippines, the Ladrones, Porto Rico
and possibly the Canary and Caroline
islands.
When on Sunday next the temples of
worship throughout the Union ring with
the grand and happy tones of the Te
Deum and the Jubilate, in answer to
the thanksgiving proclamation of the
President, the great boon which has
been vouchsafed to Americans and
their posterity for all time. in the rich
gift of Hawaii, will in no wise be fer
gotten.

the strong religious sentiment of the
people, as well as his own feeling of
dependence upon divine help and mercy.

There will be an earnest and hearty
response To his proclamation, and on tha
next Lords Day millions Of grateful
American hearts will be lifted in song
and orison to the great white throne in
humble and joyful acknowledgment OF
the good we have received at the hands
of Almighty God.
With our thanks for triumph over our
enemies there should be freely mixed
the tears of sorrow for our fallen braves

should we forget on that occasion to
pray that the chief of
our army and navy may be illumined

between the United States and Spain.
The representative of the Spanish
crown, accompanied by his stan. imms-
diately visited our cruiser in the most
friendly spirit, and was much surpris-
ed to find himself a prisoner, and to
see the Stars and Stripes run up over
his old fort. 1t seems almost a pity
to have disturbed his slumbers. and
our only sufficient excuse is that we
need the Ladrones in our business.
The many resources and advantages
belittled. however. The fact that they
offer remarkably good coaling station
Is beneath our notice. The cons;dera-
tion that they will constitute a bar
Dor of refuge for Tories who antagonize
national expansion and commercial
prosperity is more to the purpose. Any
man with the most elementary power
of Imagination, will observe that they
furnish an ideal place for the anti
annexationists to retire to, because,
once there. they would never have their
saccharine sense of fitness offended by
hearing that the United States had
plunged into the awful n1aelstrom of an
Imperial policy. and they could eat
cocoanuts. imbibe their milk, and de-
bate the Hawaiian question from the
close of the Spanish war to the congela-
ton of hades.
Aside from these idyllic thoughts, tn.
innocence of these Ladronatics fills us
with hope in connection with the few
Spanish possessions that we have not
yet taken in out of the dark. 1t is pos
sible that the governing powers in tn;
Canaries and the Balearics do not yet
know that unpleasantness exists be-
tween Spain and America. A mission
airy expedition of instruction might.
therefore, have valuable results. But
however that may be, We are bound to
be joyful over our capture of the ISL
ands of the Thieves. Whatever may
be said of our ability TO found distant
colonies, there is not a possible ques-
ton about our competence to appropri-
ately people an insular territory of that
kind.
The evening times., 1898-07-07

Naturally, the Spanish populace was
more deeply grieved and emb,ttered by
the loss of Cerveras fleet because of
their wild and senseless rejoicing over
its alleged escape and the defeat of the
American fleet With astounding blind
ness the government hoped to soften the
blow by first representing a victory,
then suggesting a doub,, and by slow de-
grees revealing the truth. 1t is exactly
the effort to mitigate the pain of cutting
off a dogs tail by amputating little at
time. If there is not n revolution it
will be because the leaders of the differ
ent factions are as dazed as the people
themselves and as inefficient as the Sa-
sasta ministry. Some pitying power
should try to talk the government into
common sense.

where Ignorance Is Bliss.

America is to be felicitated upon the
acquisition of the Ladrones or Thieves
Islands, as territory of peculiar and
desirable kind. Our energetic. busy ma
tion sometimes produces individuals
who become tired of the world, and
scornful of news and newspapers-who
would like to escape from life's turmoil
and strife, and find contentment and
peace close to nature. To all such per-
sons our latest land prize will prove a
boon and an irresistible attraction.
Although well in the path of trade,
and subject to call from vessels requir-
ing water, and situated but a thousand
miles from Manila. it appears that,
when the Charleston entered the har-
Dor Of San Ignacio de Agana, neither
the Spanish governor nor any other
body on the islands had heard of war
