WAR.

1t is war; the question is practically
settled. And now, it behoves every citi-
zen of this great republic to remember
that it is part of his duty, whoever or
wherever he may be, to uphold the flag.
While in the nature of things, but few,
compared with the great number of able
bodied men, will be called to the front,
every man in greater or less degree,
whether he fires gun, holds a pen, or
simply speaks, can uphold and back up
this government, of which we each and
all are part and parcel. We believe our
cause is just and right, but our country
right or wrong. While we are confident
that the struggle will be brief, yet it may
be long, bloody and costly. We may
suffer reverses, but let no man be like
the croaking raven, we take our chances,
and we know that we will win in the end
God speed the day.

1t is observed that they do not go be-
yond this. Very few doubt the issue of
an appeal to force. Seventeen million
spaniards, with an empty treasury, are
no match for seventy million Americans,
who have money to burn. Spain will be
defeated; but afterwards, what? 1t is be-
lieved that the Cub;.ns are incapable of
selt-government. Should they be left to
themselves, the next state of the island
would be worse than the present one.
The United States has no thought of an
nexation, and the Cubans themselves
would oppose it. What shall happen
then? The United States is embarkine
on great enterprise, much the easier
part of it being the defeat of Spain, and
her expulsion from the continent. The
difficult task will lie in discharging to the
iull extent, the responsibility undertaken
in giving the Cubans their rtreedom.-Win-

crew and heavy guns are all behind
armor, while the other upper parts of
the ship could be shot away without VIZ
tality injuring the ship.
On the other hand it is claimed that
the big 13-inch guns are only good for a
limited number of rounds. The concus-
sion being SO great that after hundred
or less times, they are liable to burst.
All the world will look upon the pres
ent conflict with great deal of interest
as trial of the new methods of warfare,
and the result may be to remodel the
navies of Europe.

AN EXPERIMENTAL WAR.

The writer believes from past person
al observation, that the sailors and Off
GERS of the American navy will be found
greatly superior to the crews on board
ofthe Spanish ships. However. the pres
ent war will be largely experimental in
the use and efficiency of the great guns
and armored war ships that are owned
and operated by both sides.
In olden times, large ship and a
large crew was. other things being equal,
almost certain to be victorious. Now a
little torpedo boat with fifty or less men,
might make run, and by taking
chances Of sinking, perhaps OF hundred
to one, still be lucky enongh to get close
enough to battle ship and sink her
with one shot. Even when battle ships
get together they could not last long.
The huge missiles and the. rapidity with
which they will be thrown will make the
contest brief and deadly.
In the competition between the re-
sistance of armor and the penetration of
shot, the latter has won. There is a
limit to the amount of steel and iron
that can be loaded upon and about a
ship, and that limit has long ago been
reached. Now days no attempt is made
to protect the whole ship. The engines,
boilers, magazines and other ''vitals"
are put in the bottom Of the ship and
covered over with a heavy, steel. arched
deck. A narrow belt Of armor protects
the sides from just below waters edge
to the steel deck. From the steel deck.

The Senate and House had a royal
battle over the form of resolution de.
claring war. The principal difference
being whether the resolution should re-
cognize the present republican govern
ment of Cuba or merely Intervention.
The former would carry with it a certain
amount of responsibility for the govern
ment and its bonds which might prove
troublesome in the future, as the pres
ent government is not very strongly
organized body and only provisional at
the best. On the other hand interyen-
ton meant to tell both parties to stop
fighting and thus made us appear as
enemies to the Cubans with whom we
really have no quarrel and in whose
cause we sympathize. After great de-
bate in the Senate resolution differing in
some respects from that passed by the
House last week were sent to the House
concurrence The House refused to
concur and the resolution went back
and forth several times, until with the
help Of conference committee the fol-
lowing resolutions were passed. It will
be noticed that while these resolutions
do not directly recognize the present in
surgent government, they do declare
much in the language of our own de-
claration of independence that the peo-
pie of Cuba "are and of right ought to
be free"
The resolutions as finally passed, had
a good majority in the senate, and only
six votes in the negative in the house.
1t is well to remember in this case. that
on the main question as to Intervention.
all through the discussion, that congress
was practically unanimous. The great
difficulty was to state our case in such
form, that no complications may arise,
even after the Spaniards are driven from
Cuba.
On Wednesday at noon President Nc
Kinley signed the resolution and sent a
notification to Minister Woodford,a at Mad
rid, 70 present to tine Spanish govern
riient.

Bro. Fairchild is quite an editorial ac-

an ardent advocate of Cavalier for the
county seat, and in the Drayton Echo he
is either silent or favorable to Pembina.
