LOSSES IN GREAT BATTLES.
The Percentage Higher Than in the
 Fight at Santiago.

AS compared with the loss inflicted on the United States forces by the Confederates in the great battles of the civil war the loss at Santiago is small when the fact is taken into con- sideratiOn that our forces in the Gu ban battle were assaulting a fortified position of the enemy. In all, count ing 5000 Cubans engaged. there were approximately 24,000 troops opposed to the Spaniards. If there have been as many as 800 casualties from wounds, heat prostrations and capture that would be 3 Is per cent
 A study of some of the great battles of the civil war will serve to show how much greater the losses were there Here is a list of some of the principal actions:
 At Gettysburg, fought July 1-3, 1863 there were 3070 killed, 14,497 wounded, 543A missing, total loss of 23,001 The entire Union forces in the battle are estimated at about S0,000, giving the percentage of loss as about 30.

FRIDAY, MARCH %, 1898
THE SOUTH AND THE WAR.

An unregenerate and unrecon-
structed old rebel said the other day
that in case of war he hoped the
North would get its full share of it.
His only qualification of this rather
sectional utterance was that he hoped
its ravages would not extend rs far
South as New York. His spleen
seems to be confined to the Yankee
States, and there may be others who
remember Sheridan, and Sherman
and Hunter, and Burbridge, who
share in the sentiment. 1t is vain
however to hope that the South
would escape its full share of the
struggle. Actual invasion is of
course out of the question, but we
have many exposed cities along our
extensive coast and the channel
between Key West and Havana is
narrow. A majority of the officers,
and perhaps of the enlisted men of
Admiral Sicards squadron are from
the South, and Southern people are
more impulsive than the people of
the North We would have more
volunteers in proportion than the
North and while our people were at
the front, the men of the North
would be cultivating the arts of
peace-and making money. We
don't disparage Northern people,
but simply warn our friends that
they will not escape the unpleasant
consequences of war, nor its rough
work. Its our time to fight now
also, for it appears from official
statistics as disclosed by the pension
debates in Congress that nearly all
our Northern friends incurred par
tial or total disability in the last
war.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the urine.
and as such it is not liable to any form of
disease except by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way Is from care
less local treatment of other diseases.

IT IS RHG,.

We had thought the matter so
thoroughly understood that we had
deemed it unnecessary so far to ex-
press the preference of the New S
for the next Congressional candidate
of the party. Letters received
from several sources and apparently
in several interests give us pause,a and
deserve u reply. We hope that
Judge Rhea will be our next STAN
dard bearer for atleast three reasons,
the first of which is that he can be
elected. 1t seems Il little cold blood
ed to give as the second reason the
fact that he deserves the nomination,
but the vicissitudes of politics may
have given us an exaggerated idea
of expedicncy, and the conviction
that Rhea can easily carry the dis
trlct, is uppermost. even when we
consider our third reason--his EN-.
inent fitness for the position. He
has been Il faithful and eloquent ex.
FOUNDER of Democratic doctrine.
He has never sulked and never lagg-
ed. No matter who has borne the
partys colors Rhea has been his
champion. A soldier who never
missed campaign nor shrked IL
battle, has no better record. IIav-
ing participated in every canvass
in every county of the district he
understands thoroughly the situa,
ton, and that he has the courage
and tact to confront it, goes without
saying, For one other reason we
hope the Democrats of the Ninth
District will honor Rhea, and that is
that the honor would please him
immeasurably, and we would like to
see him pleased.

COUNTY ROADS.

This is trite subject. Oceans of
ink and reams Iof paper have been
used in the vain attempt to teach the
people of Virginia that good roads
are blessing, and bad roads make
the people swear, One of the most
interesting psychological puzzles we
know is involved in the fact that of the
intelligent communities in the world,
the people of Virginia stand alone
in their absolute indifference to the
value of roadways.
Communities less progressive in
other respects are hundred years
ahead of us in this particular,
and this fact is becoming SO patent
and glaring that it is bringing us
into unenviable notoriety us a state
which practically discourages the
building of roads.
Of all the counties in the State Taze-
we'll is perhaps the richest, yet of all
the counties in the State it has the
most abominable, and atrocious
system of thoroughfares. Five hun
dred thousand dollars, which could
be borrowed at low rate of interest,
judiciously used would add treble
that amount to the values of the
county and be carried without bur-
densome increase in taxation.

The project of establishing IA

that there is one plant in the i'm
