Vacation in Santiago.

Vacation I'm Santiago.
DR.. Ernest NJ. Hardy, well-known
young physician and dentist of this city,
has Just returned from a vacation spent
| at Santiago. The Doctor carried his
kodak, and besides many souvenirs picked
up on the battlefield and In the city, has
numerous interesting snapshots of scenes
in the trenches.
Or. Hardy reached Santiago July 18th.
having gone over from Key West in a
colliet. He seems 10 have spent much
OF hfs time with the newspaper men, but
was in the trenches under the hot sun
and hotter fire of the Spanish sharp
shooters. and had some pretty close calls
He thinks the Spanish MsIser far su-
perior to the Krag-Jorgensens with
which our troops are armed. and from
observations came TO the conclusion that
the Cuban troops are about worthless.
good only TO lay around and sleep and eat,
while the Americans were working and
nghting. Spanish and American soldiers
mingled together very freely after the
surrender.
ENGINEERS DESERTED SPANISH.
He says he heard several Spanish Of
hcers try TO explain why the Americans
defeated the Spanish navies 80 easy They
said great dependence had been placed in
the German. Scotch. and English engi-
neers but that when war was declared
these men left the ships, and the men
who were running them were incompe-
tent and unable TO handle the vessels.
Regarding the Shafter-Scoyel incident.
DR.. Hardy says: "Scovel had climbed up
on house for the purpose OF taking
some snapshots, and he was called down
by General Shafter, and was told that
when he went 10 the General TO apologize
Tor getting upon the house the General
spoke unnecessarily harsh, and Scoyel
replied in kind, whereupon the General
struck the newspaper man, and the latter
hit back"
The Doctor says business improved
greatly after the surrender, and that the
town was not greatly hurt by the shells
from the warships. He thinks the Vesu-
Vius did not create such destruction as
reported. He says the Red Cross Society
is doing a great work.

Grace-Street Ladies' Excursion.

The ladies of Grace-Street Baptist
church will run an excursion on August
10Th to Buckroe Beach, Old Point, and
Ocean View. The train will stop at Will

FUSION IN NEBRASKA.
PopuIists Take Every ONCE Except
Acknowledgement.

LINCOLN. NEB., August 2.--Nebraska S
fusion forces failed to make a record for
themselves for industry in their three
State conventions held to-day. Beginning
shortly after o'clock this afternoon. an
evening recess found them hardly well
begun, a permanent organization and the
appointment Of the customary commit
tees being the sum total of the work ac-
complished up to to-night's session.
An excuse for the delay was found In
- fact that the Populists, Democrats.
- rTee-5ilver Republicans met in halls
in different parts OF the city, and 10 make
fusion binding It was necessary that con.
ference committees should make frequent
trips 10 and from the respective halls. In
terest centered largely in the Populist de
liberations, as IL was foregone conclu
sion that this branch u the political
family tree would dictate the terms on
which the triple alliance would work 10
gether.
DIVISION OF OFFICERS.
1t was nearly 8 O'clock when the night
session began, and two hours later the
report of the Conference Committee on
Division Of the officers among the three
parties we're received. II recommended
that the Populists be allowed TO name
the head Of the ticket Governor, and
that such other State officers as had
served acceptaby be renominated. There
was opposition. but the report was adopt |
ed in turn by each convention. 1t means
that the Populists take every State Office |
except Attorney-Generai, which goes 10 |

vention.

then the machinery could be bought

OF interest to begin on, at end OF
second year A capital of 500, 600
will build a mill of about five thous-
and spindles and two hundred looms
and employ 100 hands. OF course
if desired, a smaller capital and mil
could be started in with.
A mill built on this plan, when
once finished is just as good proper
ty for the stockholders and does
town or city just as much good as
if it had been built with money
brought from elsewhere. In fact it
is more advantageous as its con-
structlon develops a latent resource
out of which further development is
sure to come.
Preliminary preparation would
have to be taken the same as in our
home building and loan associations
in the way of selecting officers, get
ting stock subscribed, etc. And,
right here, why not build factory
instead of having snch associations
then our city would indeed be per
manently benefited.
BY the plan herein suggested, oul
city need not wait sup,uely for for
eign capital to come to our help (de'
mand a bonus) to establish facto-
ries, the greatest need OF Texark'
ana. After we establish and suc'
cessfully run a cotton mill here, 9th

THE CUBAN WAR MUST STOP
Resolution Introduced In the
House Provides for Deci.
sive Action
TO BE PLACED ON WAR FOOTING
The Full Strength of the Army to Bt
100000 Men-New Boats Being
Hurriedly Built.

Washington, March 17th.-Rep-
resentative Wheeler, OF Alabama,
introduced the following joint reso-
luton today:
Resolved, That a Joint commit
tee consisting of five members of
the senate, to be appointed by the
vice president, and five members of
the house, to be appointed by the
speaker, be created to report with
out delay to the two houses an ad-
dress to the government of Spain
declaring in firm and diplomatic
language that Americans and
American interests in Cuba must be
protected and that the atrocities
now being perpetrated in that is
land must cease,
Resolved, That the executive be
requested to Immediately transmit
this address to the government of
Spain by such methods as he may
deem most advisable, together with
letter of endorsement and appro-
val of this action on the part of
congress"
The largest measure of prepara.
tion yet made by the war depart
ment to meet the contingencies of
the future probably has just been
completed. 1t is the preparation of
a bill providing among sections for
the placing of the army on war
footing for the full strength of l04,
600 men. The bill has been careful
ly gone over by the war department
and will be introduced in the house
by Representative Hull, chairman
of the house committee on military
affairs, who, it is expected, will urge
it vigorously inasmuch as it is an
administration measure. The basis
of the bill will be the we'll known
three battalion organizations. That
is the ideal peace status of the ar
my but provision is made for the
exercise by the president of full
power to increase each one of the
existing companies from seventy
five men, the present strength, to
250 men.
There is naval squadron being
formed at Hampton Roads of five
war ships, which are to remain
there as a defensive measure. The
navy is an active branch of the ar
my at this time and the big boats
are being distributed and placed
where the most stragetic move
ments can be made should "Grim

BUILD A COTTON FACTORY.
How Capital May Be Easily Raised
for Factory to Employ
100 Men.

Some two or three years since we
wrote a series of articles upon the
subject of building cotton factories
in Texarkana, upon the co-opera-
tive plan, the same manner in which
building and loan associations are
operated. Believing that now is an
opportune time to again agitate
this matter, because our people are
alive to the Importance of securing
such enterprises, we propose to
show how easily a cotton factory
can be built here, to employ one
hundred hands.
AS stated by us in the past, the
people of North and South Carolina
have built large number of cotton
factories upon the cooperative
plan. In the March number of Cot
ton Planters Journal of Memphis is
a fine article on this subject from
Mr.. D. A. Tompkins, from which we
CLEAN valuable information. He
shows how a cotton mill of 5000
spindles would consume 20 bales of
cotton (raw materiaD increase its
value threefold. employ 100 work
ers, and bring in a handsome profit
TO its promoters. AS Texarkana
receives between 5000 and 10000
bales OF cotton per annum, most OF
it could be manufactured and used
right here at home, and at the
same time give employment to idle
labor, and more solidlY establish oul
city as manufacturing as we'll as
a railroad center.
The most popular plan, as well as
the most suitable, is to place share:
at 500, with payments of $40 rel
month; at this rate stock would ma
ture in four years, and as one.

Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1898-07-29

The regular troops of the United
States army have done so exactly what
was confidently expected of them that
their splendid performances before
Santiago excited less comment than
did the equally heroic deeds of the
volunteers. We all accepted as a
matter OF course that the regulars and
their West Point officers would act up
to the highest standard fixed by the
history of their organization. But
matters of course should not pass
without recognition. All but three
regiments of the army which accom-
panied Shafter are regulars, well
trained, perfectly disciplined, hardy,
intelligent American soldiers, otiicered
by men whose superiors are not found
in the armies of the world. The work
of the regulars has proved this.
