Let "Steve" Decide It

To the Editor Of the Los Angeles Herald
When 1 read Mr.. Cages fervid declaration
of fraternal devotion to Senator White In
his San Diego speech Chat he really did
delivery, l was profoundly affected, when
read that he would gladly lay down his
life for the senator. There was scarcely a
dry eve in the house, figuratively speaking
1 thought of the love of David and Jona-
than, of Damon and Pythias, the faith
full friendship of Orestes and Pylades. OF
Fidus Achates, but said in the language
of scripture. Behold a greater than Jo-
nah Is here"
1t is pleasant to contemplate such devo-
tion. 1t is the one blooming oasis in the
dreary and desert waste of Mr.. Cages
or of the that is In the campaign of
Barnes & Co., limited.
But what struck me most forcibly was
that here was an opportunity to do Mr..
Gage real service.
My suggestion is this. Mr.. Gage tells
us that Mr.. Mcguire was friend and ally
of Mr.. Huntington in his refunding
scheme, that at least he neglected to op-
pose that scheme as he might and should
have done.
Now here Is an issue of fact.
If that can be decided now 1t will relieve
Mr.. Gage of the most Of the burden of his
campaign. since that statement employs
the most of his time.
Now let this issue be decided by Mr.
White. Let him say wheteher or not Mr..
Mcguire was known in congress as friend
and supporter of the refunding scheme.
Let him decide it out of pure friendship
for Mr. Gage.
In the words f Colonel Sellers, There
are millions in It,"

HARES AND HOUNDS
John Grace, Jr., of San Francisco
Secured as Judge-The Drawing

AT the drawing last night at 143 South
Broadway for Sundays coursing at Agri-
cultural park, the announcement was made
of the resignation of Tom Brennan as
Judge, and it was stated that John Grace,
Jr, of San Francisco, had been secured
for the position and would officate Sun
day. The new Judge comes Of a coursing
family, being the son of the veteran Judge
Of Ingleside, an acknowledged authority on
the sport the world over. The young man
has literally grown UP on the coursing field
and is by many regarded as fully
the equal OF his father. He stands very
high in San Francisco, and comes to Los
Angelo with all the prestige of the Grace
name behind him.
The drawing resulted as follows:

Algerian Facts

To the Editor of The Los Angeles Herald:
In the issue of Thursday. the Sth inst.
Sergeant w. o. Husen of the Rough Riders
in speaking Of the lack of facilities to care
for the wounded in Cuba, stated there were
at one time 1900 wounded to be cared for.
In the Army and Navy Journal, Septem-
Der 10, 1885, page SO, appears this state
ment: "Adjutant General Corbin has pre-
pared a list showing the total number of
officers and men who were either killed
or wounded in the Santiago campaign.
On June 80. 1898, the American army con-
sisted of $50 officers and 735S enlisted men.
OF this number % officers and 222 men were
killed and 92 officers and 1885 men were
wounded
According to the official records the San
tiago campaign only extended from July
to July II. SO the bold statement of 1900
men being wounded at one time is not
borne out by the facts from the officia
records. FACTS.

Surely

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald:
Several ladies of my acquaintance are
wondering whether or not members of our
sex are expected to attend the public meet
ings being held at the Mcguire wigwam.
No lady feels like attending one of these
meetings without being assured that others
of her sex VIII be present. But if it We're
generally known that ladies We're invited
and expected it Is quite certain that many
would attend. Thus far we have seen no
invitation for us in any announcements of
the wigwam meetings.. l respectfully sug-
gest that if the managers desire the at
tendance of ladies at those political gath
erings they should so state in the an
nouncements.

Another War with Spain

Some newspapers think the Spanish are
making secret preparations to seize Cuba
and Porto Rico again and get baci, what
they lost during the late war. We do not
believe these rumors. Enemies cannot
successfully attack a strong nation like tho
United States. Neither can diseases sue
cessfully attack strong constitutions. If
man has a healthy stomach, disease can
not get foothold. The best remedy known
to science for making strong constitutions
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This is
that long-tried remedy which makes the
stomach healthy by making diges ton per-
feet. Perfect digestion makes pure blood
Pure blood carries strength and vigor into
every corner of the body through the
veins. The l3itters are Incompatible for
