At FIVE o'clock on the first of May,
The Manila Bay
And the Spaniards there was hell to pay,
At five o'clock in the morning.
For there before them, grim and gray
Their Auttering flags with the winds at play,
The vengeful Yankee warships lay,
At five o'clock in the morning.
The sun went down in Manila bay,
The Spanish warships, where they,
That on the silvering waters lay,
At five o'clock in the morning?
The guns had spoken with and crash,
Twas rip and racket, and bang and smash;
The Spanish squadron cut to hash,
By ten o'clock in the morning.
We thought of the harbor, far away,
Where the bones of murdered comrades lay,
The score was settled on the first of May,
By ten o'clock in the morning.

XOUR NEUTRALITY.

" of the American papers com
mont severely upon those men in Con
,rass who still oppose annexation
The New York Tribune expresses the
views of the Advertiser in this matter.
1t says:
COT course, in giving us the use OF
the Islands the Hawaiian Government
will be breaking the law of nations. 1t
viii, under the rules adopted at the
time of the Geneva Award, be respOns-
ible to Spain for all damage to that
country resulting from our use of the
Islands But that will not matter, for
we shall have the making Of terms Of
peace, and we can easily require
Spain to relinquish all such demands
upon Hawaii.
THAT is the fine moral argument.
We are to let Hawaii, for our benefit,
break an international law which
was made at our own instance, and
then use our strength as victor in the
war to shield her from the penalty OF
her crime. We are to seek to win this
war through a fragrant breach of in
ternational law. And we are to re
fuse to make peace with Spain until
she agrees to condone international
law-breaking We are to incorporate
in a solemn treaty a proviso that a
nation shall not be called to account
for Jaw breaking, so long as the law
break king was done for our benefit. we
are to put ourselves on record as oaoy-
ing the law of nations only when it
pays us to do so, or when we are mot
strong enough to break it with i'm
punity. Truly, that is the sort of
righteousness that exalteth a nation!
That is the sort of morality that COM
-amends itself to those pure souls who
tink it would be a wicked thing to do
an act desired by the people of both
nations
The question of our neutrality will
cease, in a few days, to become a
practical one The law of the sword
settles it.
The question is now an his6lSical
one only. AS we have said before. it
is such an interesting one, but as
a d1mmunity we have regarded is as
.oneof those affairs that involve fntri-
cate moral and legal considerations
which should be treated, from a
@ical and not a theoretical stand
A.,oint. At least some records Should
be preserved of this interesting phase
of bur closing national life.

brltons are comparing the records
made at Manila with the scoring dur
ing the practice fire of the British
crews, and are asking with a good deal
OF feyerish apprehension where their
own gunners come in" This journal
also quotes the opinion of a prominent
naval officer that the gunnery prac-
tce in Her Majesty's navy is regard
ed as rather more than a necessary
evil than as a duty that, for the good
OF the service, should be of first place
Importance"
Probably the only way to account
for this singular deficiency in the Brit
ish navy is by giving force and effect
to the old usages, customs and tradi-
tons of the service, which have Great
ed stubborn habit of thought and

REMARKABLE GUNNERY.

The Military and Naval Record
(I1ngiishl says: '.The remarkable
shooting of the American gunners at
the battle of Manila has opened the
eyes of the naval men of Europe"
It would be expected that the most
accurate and effective gurnery ought
to be found, where the largest stand
ing armies and navies exist But, on
the contrary, it appears where the
standing army is the smallest and the
navy inferior in size
And why?
During the war with the British in
1912, the American gunners5 were, on
the whole superior to the British, ow-
ing to the fact that the Napoleonic
wars compelled the British to man
their ships, through the cruel press
gang" with the riff raft of all ma
tions. The American seamen came
largely from the sturdy New England
stock. and took a patriotic interest in
the naval engagements. The American
commanders were also compelled to
economy in the use of ammunition.
These causes, among others, made bet
ter gunnery in the American navy.
More important still, the Military
-As.osdemy at West Point, and the Naval
Academy at Annapolis have been, in
many ways, superior to any similar in
stitutions in the world, for the reason
that they have not been hampered by
old usages, old traditions, family in
terests. and political abuses. Their one
object has been to make the best sol
5iers and sailors, and nothing has
been allowed to stand in the way OF
reaching this result. The similar
scbooIs in Europe are not on this in
donandent basis. Social and political
.nt,uenee still NEEDLES with the best
aficiency of the services.

with the train robbers case at Fergus
Falls on the day set, and Judge Har-
rison, OF Hennepin county, served in
his stead. The people of Milaca for
gave Judge Searle for his absence
when they read in the papers the next
morning that he had given Thayer,
the only one Of the robbers tried,
twenty years ia the State prison.

Honolulu Men Capture a Bonanza
in New Remedy.
There has been quietly introduced
into Honolulu within a month, a new
scientific treatment for the cure of
rupture. The discovery is nothing in
the nature of a patented specific, but
is the application Of medical and sur
gical methods studied out and proven
by we'll known physician of Boston.
local drug man while in the United
States last year learned of the remedy
and secured the right to use it in these
Islands and an option on the rights
for New Zealand and Australia. This
citizen has probably captured a bonan-
"a of very desirable proportions. He
has taken into the arrangement a well
known practitioner of the city and sew
eral cases are being treated. The me-
thod is the injection of a fluid which
builds up permanent tissue, causing
