GETTING THE WAR NEws.-The cost
of the war with Spain fell almost as
heavily or the newspapers as it did on
the government. The return has, of
course, been small. Increased circula'
ton has not meant more advertising,
but, on the contrary, less.
This was largely due, of course, to
the fear that the business world would
be demoralized hy war, and then, too,
the advertisers alleged that they were
being forced to pay more than their
share. There are some things the ad-
vertiser should remember: and it may
be of value to call his attention to them.
II he needs newspaper publicity. as he
certainly does, then he should Iealiz !,
that the cost OF getting out the papers
has been and continues to be enormous
1t is interesting 10 note the cost OF
cable dispatches. From st. Thomas,
via Haiti, the rate is 81 4G word; from
Kingston, via Haiti Martinique, 50 213;
from Barbados, 81 o.; from Santiago Ge
Cuba, SO cents; from Havana, % cents;
from Cape Haitien, 81 As; from Porto,
S5 cents, and from Mole st. Nicolas,
529 cents.
This is the amount simp'y for cables,
and it should be remembered that there
are the dispatch boats, with their crews
and high-priced reporters. Then there
are all sorts OF additional expenses, un-
til the cost OF the war services has
amounted to amazing figures. = Fourth

ALL HONOR TO OUR NAVY.

The United States navy is one of the
oountrys institutions of which too much
cannot be said in praise. From the time
when it was of such dimensions and its
ships of such a character that it was hardly
worthy to be called a navy and was the
laughing stock of powers then greater. it
has never failed in emergency. From the
beginning it has brought honor and distinc-
ton upon the Nation and has more than
met the demands upon it. In the early days
the achievements were due rather to the
skill Of the commanders than the character
of the ships, but it is not belittling the
qualities of the modern captains to saw that
the wonderful vessels which they control
must share the honors. The mere handling
In time of peace Of these vast structures
with their complicated mechanism involves
a sort of knowledge and ability of which the
old-time naval officer had no comprehension
Now such an officer must not only under
stand navigation and military science, he
must have familiarity with the great va
riety of new explosive compounds and their
effects, with the new guns and their possi-
bilities, with the innumerable scientific in
ventions and appliances that go to the max
ing up of great battle ship; he must have.
in short, an education that was formerly I'M
necessary. and with the number of men I'M
der his control needs also certain qualities OF
command once less important But with all
his attachments this modern naval officer
could do little without the modern ship
Indeed, in estimating the achievements of a
ne SC No no ell A.
master from his vessel: to all military in
tents and purposes they are one. OF truth
the United States has the ships and has the
men to command them. The efficiency of
this navy is no doubt due to the careful edu-
cation of the officers and to the scientific
skill which has been brought to the con-
struction of the vessels. In addition, too
is the singleness of purpose that distin-
guishes the naval as well as the regular
army officers. They have an unimpeachable
loyalty and have but one purpose, that OF
serving their country to the best of their
ability. They have not always had their
due need of credit. but this has not inter-
fered with their performance of duty They
have remained uncomplainingly in obscurity
in the years Of peace. but. as the world just
now has proof, have not permitted their
powers to grow rusty. Not much credit is
due to the country in general for the ex-
istence of this navy. Appropriations have
been grudgingly made for the Annapolis
school. and the building Of new ships has
always been permitted with reluctance by
Congress. which had no hesitation in vast
ing large sums Of money on useless river
improvements. But now that upon the
navy rests the whole responsibility of war

THE NEWS FROM DEWEY.

After a, week of wearing suspense and
great anxiety the country has conhrmatory
news OF Commodore Dewey's victory at
the Philippine islands. At any time since
the cutting of the cable and interruption of
communication. last Monday evening, a
bare confirmation of the first report would
Rave been welcomed with rejoicing. The
news now received not only confirms but
increases the brilliancy of the exploit and
the magnitude of the victory. 1t shows
that, as a result of the most daring and
successful naval attack recorded in his
tory, eleven Spanish war ships destroyed,
the Notifications at the entrance of the
bay demolished, the shore batteries ST.
fenced, the naval station at Cavite cap
tured, at least $50 of the enemy killed, the
bay and city of Manila completely under
the control and at the mercy of the Amer
lean fleet and all this without the loss of
man or serious damage to a ship on our
side. The naval annals of the world fur
nish no parallel to this in the magnitude
and thoroughness Of the victory and the
almost complete immunity from damage to
the attacking party. 1.-The squadron is UNI
injured" says Commodore Dewey, "and
only few men were slightly wounded"
The last words will bring relief to many
anxious relatives and friends who feared
lest the victory might have been purchased
at the cost Of precious lives. From a war
point of view it would have been worth
even such sacrifice, but it's value is in
dnitely enhanced by the fact that 1t was
achieved wi he Of civ
Oh our side. The completeness and blood
lessness Of the victory shows that the
American commander did not err when he
stored his squadron over Spanish tor
pedoes and into the muzzles of their guns
In the confidence that their defenses were
feeble and their craftsmanship bad. AS
he had few men wounded, one or more of
his ships must have been hit, but the fact
that they were uninjured shows that the
Spanish armament was as ineffective as
their gunnery was bad. Even one we'll
directed shot from a Spanish ship or shore
battery would have caused some loss Of life
on our side, and the fact that it did not
happen adds an element of strangeness to
one of the most remarkable events in his
tory.
Commodore Dewey's dispatch shows that
he had been hampered by the lack of
force to make a landing. This being the
case; it would seem to be the. duty of the
government to send him reinforcements at
once, and probably that will be done.
Meanwhile the country can rest easy in the
assurance that he is complete master of the
situation

view only is different for the time. The
war advocates see the miseries of an OPP
pressed people and want them relieved; the
champions of peace see all the horrors of
war without considering it's benefits. After
ALL 1t is hardly TO be expected of women
representing nursery interests that they
should look kindly upon state of affairs
that would take the boys, whom they ex-
pect to rear on scientific principles, and
stand them up to be shot at. But it must
also be admitted that there is a certain in
congruity between the truly feminine the
cries and projects Of these organized
mothers and the subject that at present alb
serbs every attention bat theirs that causes
d!sinterested observer to smile. With the
smile comes mild regret that no one Of
this day and age is likely to live long enough
to see what effect upon civilization univer-
sal kindergartening and scientific child
training will have.
