The City Fortified to Offer a Desper-
ate Resistance.
San Francisco July pa Chronicle
special from Cavite, dated June %, says:
IN case of expected bombardment of Ma
Mia the area to which the Spanish may
retire will be limited to the American
and insurgent lines surrounding the city.
There may come the struggle, for the
Spaniards have burrowed intrenchments
and fortified the hills and knobs
ut is known here that every energy
IS bent within the city to prepare for the
final struggle The people are exhorted
by the clergy and military authorities,
and their hopes are buoyed by false re-
ports as to relief from Spain and Span
ish triumphs in the West Indies and
along the Atlantic coast.
Capt Gen. August is credited with an
assertion that he can muster 10000 troops
No one seriously believes that he can
marshal 10000.
THE city seems as nearly ready for
the conflict as the material in the hands
of the Spanish can make it.
ut is secretly predicted that there will
not be a bloodiess capitulation of Manila,
as it is feared that there viii be a long
and bloody resistance"

graphic story of the war that has been
heard in this city
Chaplain Jones left the Texas just after
the destruction of Cervera's fleet and
came north on the st. Louis, and is now
under treatment at the Naval Hospital

QUO VADIS?

One or two fool Republican papers
in this State evidently think it is an
objectionable sin not to always agree
with Senator Elkins. They ought to
sell themselves tor jelly fsh.-Ritchie
Gazette.
1t seems that a few Republican
newspapers think that one or two in
dividuals in official position consti-
tute the Republican party. The cleo
ton next fall will show that this is a
mistake. West Virginian,
1t is a source of regret that our
friends are not more explicit. The
Herald is very happy to plead guilty
to the charge of being supporter of
Senator Elkins, and is perfectly will
ing to state the reasons for the faith
that is ours. And more, we expect to
continue to support him. Briefly
stated some of the reasons for that
support are:
Senator Elkins is and has been alb
solutely and unqualifedly right upon
all the great questions that have de-
manded the attention of Congress.
He was and is right in his advocacy
of the development of our merchant
marine.
He was and IS right in the ardent
support he has rendered President
Mckinley.
He was right in his opposition to
the independence OF the Cuoan insur
gents.
He was right in opposing a declara-
ton of war against Spain until the
Nation was prepared for war.
He was right in his opposition to
the amendment TO the war revenue
bill taxing the gross receipts of cor
porations.
He was right in his opposition to
the Cleveland-syndicate bond sale.
He was right in his support for
honest money.
He was and is right in his efforts to
develop the natural resources of West
Virginia.
If other reasons are demanded the
Herald is prepared to name them ad
libitum.
The Gazette got wrong on the Gu
ban question and now rails at and
makes faces at others who kept their
heads and bided the time when those
in authority should act Subsequent

events have proven the wisdom of
their course and the folly of that adj
vocated by the Gazette.
The West Virginian has a personal
griavence and has permitted that
griavence to warp its judgment, a
source of much regret, as it is the
first bad break which that sterling
journal has made.
Senator Elkins and other loyal Re-
publicans are inclined to condone the
errors committed, but are decidedly
OF opinion that it is very bad politics
for the Gazette and West Virginian to
remain on the curve when there is a
straight track ahead. Some of these
days the question, quo VaaiSo may
be asked and to give satisfac Glory
answer will be quite embarrassing.

A Good Roads Proposition.

Mr. +. G.. Harrison, Road Expert
and Acting Director of the Road In
quiry Division, Department of Agri-
culture, writes us as follows:
am arranging for the construc-
ton OF sample roads in Vermont, New
Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Mary
land, under my supervision. How
would you like to have one in West
Virginia? would be pleased to ar
range for one in your section, if you
think it advisable. Kindly let me
know" etc
Mr.. Harrison is acknowledged to be
the leading authority in this country
on roads. If the benefit OF his ex-
perience can be secured by Berkeley
county land it can), it will be worth
much. 1t occurs to us that the pro-
posed new road from Martinsburg to
Hedgesville would present a most adj
mirable opportunity for utilizing the
services Of Mr.. Harrison and we thus
present TIE matter to the people.
We do not carry Mr. Harrison MOI
the proposed improvement in our vest
pocket it is therefore probable the
Statesman will interpose its Bour-
bonish objection as it always does
whenever any new or good thing is
presented; but we are most happy tC
state that Mr.. II. will not be scared
away by the Statesman's "hoot,
neither do we imagine for a moment
that those pushing the improve
ment will be checked in their efforts
1t will afford us pleasure to convey
to Mr.. Harrison any suggestions any
one may wish to offer and should i
be desired, we feel quite sure he will
come up and inspect the route if moth
ing more.
