THE WAR PROGRESS.
A Few of the Things that have
been done in the last
tWentyfour hours.

The bombardment of San
tiago has been postponed by
General Shafter under advise
from the war department who
advised him to confer with
Sampson before his final ac-
ton was decided upon. The
destruction of the fleet under
Cervera has changed the as
pect of every thing at Santa
90 and the fleet and the army
can now both assault the
place together.
The fleet will probably run
the guantlet of the shore bat
teries. The mines are not
believed to be dangerous
since the Spanish fleet passed
over them in safety. They
are contact mines.
The Spaniards announce
that they will continue the
war as they have one hundred
thousand soldiers on the
island.
Sagasta has at last admit
ted the defeat or the Spanish
fleet and the capture of the
admiral.
The loss of the Americans
before Santiago has been very
heavy. Seventeen hundred
have been killed or wounded.
A resolution has been in
troduced into Congress thank
ing Schley and the men un-
der his command for their
conduct in the defeat of Ger
vera. Sampson was not there
and the credit for the victory
belongs to Schley as pointed
out by this paper yesterday.
The troops have begun to
leave Chichamauga for the
front. They go first to
Charleston where they will be
embarked. The West Virgin
ians have not yet left but they
will 60 in a day or SO.
Plans for feeding the starv-
ing Cubans are being carried
out as rapidly as possible and
this point has not been over
looked on account of the rush
of business attending the con-
duct of the war.

Corbett's shows and he seems to have

Cadet" Mcvey knocks out Corbett on
shipboard with a billy and In the last
act Is himself badly beaten by Corbett
to a finish. Possibly he would
have been beaten worse yet IL he had
remained In New York after the fight
was over. He is said to have taken a
train West and his present whereabouts
In unknown.

~ HODE ISLAND Is in lard luck.
N She has a constitution which.
judging by Its appearance. was

the present time she hasn't been able
to do 90. According to this constitu-
ton. q three-nfths vote In necessary to
secure the adoption OF n new constitu-
tion or an amendment &C the old one.
In the election of November s there
were 1884 votes cast In favor Of the
proposed constitution and 1894 against
Il. As the latter number is more than
two-hfths OF the former number the
proposition failed. But there were e.54s
ballots cast blank so far as the consti-
tutional proposition was concerned. the
voters evidently being too careless to
mark them. Had about one-ninth OF
these marked their ballots favorably.
Rhode leland would have a new con-
stiution and its present in
strument would have been discarded.
Another effort will be have 10 be made.
but IL will need several years and will
involve much expense. And mean
while the state will have TO get along
the best IL can under its a~ntiquated
constitution.

~HE governor OF Florida has issued
a circular letter proposing a ma
tional convention to assemble
at Tampa. Fla, on Feb. s. to discuss
methods for placing state troops on the
most effective footing. All questions
relating to arms. equipment, tactics.
clothing. food and transportation are to
be discussed by experts. as viii the sub
ject OF camp sites. sanitation and all
precautionary measures that modern
science can suggest to insure the COM
fort and health of troops. In other
words. IL is to be n sort OF a national
guard convention. The war proved
that there was something wrong with
u state militia system. In few in
stances was n portion OF the national
guard prepared to take h field.
Neither officers nor men were ready for
the emergency. and the result was
great suffering and the sacrifice OF
many lives simply for a Of military
knowledge and military system. In
stead of increasing the standing army
to a peace footing of 100. 900 men. some
people and newspapers are advocating
n general enlargement Of the national
guard as q substitute. The plan seems
to be hardly practicable. But the ma
tional guard has Its sphere OF useful
ness: its proper maintenance should
be a matter of concern and pride to
every state, inc IL will cost no more
TO make Il as perfect as possible than
It would to keep 1t in a state OF loose
discipline and unhtness for military
duty.

Current Comment.
South and North Agreed.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
The hanging OF a colored man In I'LL
nois for the usual crime has taken place
with the same celebrity which would have
been witnessed In the South. The dis
patches tell US that there will be no
attempt to discover the perpetrators Of
this act. an the community is very well
satisfied with what has taken place. The
Constitution only refers to this news In
cident for the purpose OF drawing the les
son that men are pretty much the same
everywhere. While cool and orderly pro-
ceedings of law win do very well for or
binary occasions In Illinois, yet there are
times when ven the citizen of that state
feels hat he 10 called upon to act in
stantlv.

Task for the Republicans.

We are charging the navy at a rate
that calls for immense appropriations AMI
the pension roll will be increased con-
siderably in consequences of the recent
war. When the republicans come to pro-
vide for the support of the government
as IL Is now being run they will tackle
a tough problem. They are already
quarreling over this matter and when
they come to its practical consideration
In congress we shall see them involved In
some lively wrangling.

the plumber or apply for an Injunction
