SAYS a Washington dispatch: "The
Cubsns, like our Western Indians, will
find defender In General Miles, if he
puts the story of the Santiago campaign
into his official report" remarked an
army officer of high rank. "The Gen.
ersl considers that the Cuban army, or
part of it, at least-has been rather un-
fairly used by newspaper writer's as a
rule. The records will show that Gen
eral Miles experience with General
Garcia was very satisfactory. Before
the Santiago campaign began he opened
communication with Garcia, who follow
ed instru ctions to the letter, and with a
pomptness which ought to take him out
of the proverbial 'manana' class. Cen
eral Miles feels that Garcia has never
had half the credit he deserved for what
he really accomplished, and it would not
be surprising if he said 90 in plain
English in his report"

CHARLES II. SUMMERS, the chief elec
trician of the Western Division, Of the
Western Union Telegraph Company,
died last week in San Francisco, OF heart
failure. Mr.. Summers was the leading
electrician at Chicago for a number OF
years. He was was a brother in.law Of
Mr.. D. II. Baldwin, the leading piano
manufacturer of Cincinnati, and learned
telegraphy in the little Office at Ripley,
Ohio, on the old Pittsburg and Cincin-
natl line, the first that was put up in
Ohio. He was a genial, companionable
man, and was always glad to meet bis
old frieuds. AS an operator, he soon be-
came proficient, and gradually won hii

The pastors association of Columbus,
at their meeting Monday, condemned
the Sunday parade in honor of the 4th
Ohio Regiment, which had just arrived
from Porto Rico, saying:
"While the brave soldiers are entitled
to honor, the welcome accorded them
should not have been of a nature to
transgress the laws of the God to whom
their safe return and our Nations glori-
GUS victory is DUE"
The pastors are right. While the
Presidents Proclamation is yet fresh,
calling upon a grateful Nation to give
thanks to God for the glorious victory
vouchsafed our army and navy, it was
mockery to turn His Sabbath day OF
rest into q gala day, and thereby efface
its sacred character for the time. The
regiment could have been given q Sab
bath ef rest at Washington, and then
have got home in time to vote. The
man that strikes down the Christian
Sabbath strikes fatal blow at Ameri-
can liberty.
