Action. Action! Action. The Globe
Leader Urges Today.
Boston. March so.-1n an article on
congress and the president The Globe
says today: THE outburst Of feeling at
the national capital yesterday was SO
spontaneous and emphatic. and 80 en-
Enthusiastically participated In by not a
few leaders of Republicanism that Presi-
dent Mckinley cannot possibly mistake
its significance. Congress was per-
suaded. much against its will, to SUE
pend Judgment for many a long week,
pending the receipt OF the report into
the causes OF the destruction of the
Maine ana TIE slaughter Of more than
300 of her brave officers and crew. But
patience has It's limits. The notable
scenes of enthusiasm for Cuban freedom
in the senate. and the unquestioned dom
ination of the war spirit among members
of the house means that congress never
will agree to suspend action indefi-
nitely." N
The Post insists that the country at
large wants action. not talk or dipio-
macy. on the Cuban question. ITO put
1t plainly" IL says. the great mass OF
the American people think the time
has come for armed Intervention and for
serving notice on Spain that she Is
not wanted on this side Of the Atlantic.
That this Is the real sentiment OF the
country cannot be questioned by close
students OF the situation; and this is
most potent factor to be taken into ac-
count in considering the probabilities Of
war or peace"
Those jealous patriots who hGve been
ehiding President Mckinley. and thoss
peace-at-any-price extremists who have
been appIauding him. little know what
he has actually DONE" says The Journal.
'As q matter OF fact The Journal can
state on excellent authority that several
days ago the president made q positive
demand upon Spain to put an end to hos
tlities In Cuba at once and TO permit
the reconcentrados TO return to their
native farms and villages. A PROPOSE
ton. though not yet demand. has also
been offered that Spain withdraw it's
troops from the island as the first step
to negotiations for independence. No
reply has yet been received from Madrid.

A further dispatch received
from Commodore Dewey says
"CAvITE, May Al have tax

CHICAGO, May THE CAron-
icie has the following:
"HoNGKoNG, May Com
modore Dewey's flag lieutenant,
Thomas M. Brumby, arrived at
Hongkong this morning on the
United States revenue Hugh
McCulloch,' with the first official
news of the great naval battle of
modern times, that of Manila
harbor. The official dispatches
were at once Forwarded by cable
to the United States Government
at Washington.
"The first connected story of
the engagement was told by the
officers of the 'McCulloch,' who
saw it and participated in it.
They said that SPANS feet of
ten vessels was wholly destroy
ed. The 'Reina Christina, flag.
The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1898-05-17

Spanialds on shore were still de-
iiant.
1.-The Spanish ships caughtfre
one after another or were driven
to groundings to save their
crews. Commander Dewey con
tinued the fighting until the last
vessel of the enemy had been
destroyed.
by that time the shore bat
teries were silenced. and the
American fleet had won re-
markable victory. American
ships were kept under way to
maneuver about the Spanish
fleet. BY this means much Of
the enemy's fire was rendered
harmless. The spectacle OF the
American warships maneuverins
as if on parade and at the same
time directing a terrific fire a.
the enemy's ships and forts, was
a magnificent tribute to the SIKH
and discipline of modern naval
warfare.
"There were only a few slight
casualties, all told among the
ships of the American feet, the
worst of which resulted from an
explosion of ammunition on the
deck of the Baltimore. The
other ships of the fleet werep fac-
tically uninjured.
"At least $50 Spaniards are
known to have been killed dur,
ing the engagement. and several
hundred wounded besides. Some
reports place the total loss Of
the Spanish feet at 800 killed
and 400 wounded"
The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1898-05-17

Cav'te batteries let loose their
heavy guns. The best gunnecs
in the American fleet manned
the most destructive weapons on
their ships and the havoc made
was frightful. The engagement
soon became general. The Me
Culloch' remained at some dis.
lance from the brunt of the en-
counter and the enemy's shells
passed but did not touch her.
The craftsmanship of the Span
ish gunners seemed to be wild
from the outset.
1.-THE American cruiser Bal
timore, at one period OF the en-
gagement received the brunt of
the euemy's fire and suffered the
most of any vessel in the Ameri-
can squadron. From five to ten
OF the enemy's shots to effect on
the Baltimore, but none of her
officers or crew were seriously
hurt.
LAS soon as the Spanish Ad-
miral left the 'Reina Christina
and boarded the Isle de Cuba. ;
the fire was directed at the latter
mercilessly, every 8-inch gun on
every ship joining those on the
flagship. The Isle dc Cuba was
riddled by the deadly marks
manship of the American gun
ners. After a few rounds she
was put out of action and before
Admiral Montijo had had time
to get his bearings, he was driv
en- out a second time. Again he
escaped in a small boat. But the
light was practically over.
1.-THE Spanish cruiser .Castil-
la burst into flames under the
remarkable gunnery of Dewey's
men. The American Commodore
then directed a hot fire against
the batteries. This was a sur
prise to Admiral Montijo, who
apparently thought himself Sc
cure under the guns of the Cav
lite Notifications.
1.-The Spanish cruiser 'Reina
Christina received the full effect
OF this of this CALLING fire from
the American fleet, and was so
badly damaged that she sunk
after catching fire. The other
vessels of the fleet were quickly
riddled by the whitening hail OF
lead from the American gun
boats.
1.-Two gunboats that had nut
out from the Cavite breakwater
with evident intent to DESTROY
the nearest American vessels
were speedily forced to return
within shelter of the fortifica-
tons.
The arsenal at the Cavite for
tlncations exploded during the
probably from the
American shells, and forty Span
lards were killed. The forts
made q nominal resistance bnt
were quickly overpowered. The
shore garrisons did not capitu-
late, however, and VIII on the
american heet ceased firing, the

admiral Montijo, the Span
ish Admiral, was compelled to
escape in a small boat to the
Isle de Cuba, another of the
Spanish vessels, and as soon as
his flag was hoisted the guns of
the American fleet were TUNED
on it and in a few minutes it was
destroyed. The Admiral was
again forced to escape in small
boat. The defenses of Manila
and it batteries, as well as those
at Cavite, were silenced aad then
beaten to the ground by the rain
of shot and shell.
During Saturday night the
vessels of the American squad
ron crept inside the bav through
supposed maze of mines and
torpedoes. They were not OBJ
served by, any of the watcae IS

some stray sparks were emitted

they were ineffective. There
was no patrol established, nor
were any searchlights placed at
the entrance to Manila bay.
1.-THE vessels of the American
squadron never stopped or slow
ed down until they had assumed
a position directly opposite the
city of Manila. This was lust at
daybreak.
1.-The order of battle assumed
by the Spanish feet at the be-
ginning of the engagement was
with all the small craft inside of
Cavlte harbor, which is protect
ed by stone and timber break
waters, and the larger ships
maneuvering off Cavite and Man
lila.
The American battle line was
lead by the flagship Olympia
and the cruiser Raleigh The
Boston, Baltimore, Concord
and Petrol, and the revenue
cutter 'McCulloch' followed. The
American fleet in easy speed an
preached the Spanish ships,
which were drawn out in two
lines, the 'Reina Christina the
flagship, in the center.
LAS the dawn broke and the
position of the American squad
ron was discovered the Spanish
neet immediately opened fire,
supported by the Cavite forts.
Inc Spaniards fired the first
shot. The challenge was given
by the 'Reina Christina.
THE Olympia replied, and at
once the entire American fleet
was in action.

hesitate in their fire, and the

Address To Voters.

"As conclusive evidence of the
economy and retrenchment il
public expenditures and reform
in the public service, as promis
ed by the last Democratic State
Convention, we invite the clos
est scrutiny of the taxpayers Of
the State of Idaho to the present
flourishing condition of our State
finances and of all our public in
situations formerly existing
under Republican administra-
ton, and especially to the fact
that the Legislative year of the
Republican administration shows
a saving to the taxpayers of over
sos, 900. State warrants which
we're at a discount under Re-
publican administration are now
selling at a premium.
1.-THE Democratic party, true
to the principles of Jefferson and
Jackson, always champions every
measure of reform which tends
to the welfare of the people. and
is the party which for the first
time in the history of our country
made the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at the ratio of 16 to
1 with gold, without regard to
the action of any other govern
ment, the paramount issue be-
fore the people, and proposes to
continue the battle of the stand
ards until the cause of the money
of the constitution shall triumph
over monopolists, gold gamblers
and trusts.
I'm order that victory may be
insured beyond a peradventure,
realizing that in union there is
strength and in line with the
recommendations of the National
Chairman of the Democratic,
Peoples and Silver Republican
parties, we cordially invite all,
regardless of past party afilia-
tions, who believe with us on
this issue. and who favor the
welfare of the masses as against
favoritism of the classes, to unite
with us in the coming campaign
and win another victory in the
interests of the people.
We congratulate the women
of Idaho on being enfrauchised
and will cordially welcome to our
ranks all women voters in the
State who indorse the sentiments
contained in the foregoing, be-
lieving as we do that their active
participation in politics of all
parties will bring about more
careful selection of candidates
for official positions.
I'VE believe that the success
of the International Trans Mis-
sissippi Exposition to be held at
Omaha from June to Novem Der
of this year will result in great
and lasting benefits to all the
Intermountain States and ter
ritories and pledge our cordial
support to secure funds for this
purpose"
Above was adopted as party
principles by the Democratic
committee April Goth, 1898.
