General Joe Nheeler's Memory.

4 dispatch to the New York Journal
from Santiago says: To the splendid
genefalship Of General Joe Wheeler as
much as TO any other canse Is due the
repeated successes Of the American
forces around Santiago. To see this
white haired veteran Of the war Of the
rebellion astride his horse, leading the
regiments under bis command, made
up almost entirely OF Northern men, Is
a sight 70 stir the heart Of ever Ameri-
can who remembers that there was
once a Mason and Dixon line in the
United States.
The camp here Is ringing with praise
Of Wheeler, and Al the same a good
story Of MS words during a desperate
charge last week Is going the rounds
Is he was leading the Seventy first
New York, the Roosevelt Rough
Riders and strong force Of regulars
up high hill at San Juan, storming
large body Of Spaniards, who were
strongly intrenched, the attacking line
began TO wayer under fierce fire from
Calling guns and strong field pieces.
Wheeler saw his men waver, and
began shouting at the top Of his voice,
WItlC t4Lc AAIS HCIC AOsSA iAS anu tit
small arms rafting:
STEADY, boys. Come on now, the
Yankees are giving way, look There
they gOl The Yankees are leaving
their guns, and suddenly catching
himself he cried out even more yigor
ously:
damn IT. l mean the Spaniards
are running. Go for EN- boys!'
Despite the hail Of Mauser and
Springfield bullets, the rain of shrap-
mel and Calling gun fire, the soldiers
laughed at their old general S absent
minded memory of other days. But
they did Ego for EN-. Instantly the
wavering line took on new confidence,
the gaps closed, and in twenty minutes
San Juan hill was ours.
General Wheeler, for a man of his
years, has shown wonderful powers in
the field No young officer in his com
mand can stand longer or harder
fighting than he, and certainly none is
Drawer or more fearless.
General Shafter has been indisposeC
| for days at time since going to the
front, and much Of the responsibility OF
command, as we'll as the brunt of con
tinuous fighting, have been borne by
Fighting Joe Wheeler.

The arguments of the prOtectiOnist 5
have been annihilated by the operations
Of the Dingley law. The Nashville
Tenn. American thinks it meet and
proper that the people should be APP
prised of the facts: I'm a speech de-
iivered in congress March %, 1897,
Mr.. Dingley outlined his scheme as
follows: our problem is to provide
adequate revenue from duties on i'm
ports to carry on the government, and
then he prophesied that 'on the basis Of
the importations of the fiscal year 1896,
the pending bill enacted into law would
Weld an increase of revenue of about
$113 600, 900, over the Wilson bill then
in effect AS the law did not go into
effect until nearly four months after
Mr.. .Dingley made his declaration there
were considerable importations of
goods likely to be affected by the pro
posed law, and as long as this lasted
TO again quote Mr.. Dingley, in case
its passage should be deferred, there
would have to be deduction Of from
one TO two million dollars for every
week so that the Dingley law should
have produced not less than sol 900, %
900 increase over the revenue OF the
year 1897. 1t is little dlfhcult TO
reach the exact results Of the working
of his bill, owing to the expense OF the
war, but approximately and for all
practical purposes they are easily OBJ
tainable. The cost of the war SO far,
according TO the treasury officials Is
$50 600 900 to 500, 600 900. But there
i an offset to this in an item of $59, =
600 900 paid into the treasury from the
sale of the Pacific railroads, and an
other item of 500, 900 900 from sub
scriptions already received to the gov
eminent war loan must be added !,
making a total of $40 OO0, 600 received
as extraordinary accounts against sos, T.
00O 600 paid out on an extraordinary
account Now, as TO the results of the
first wear of Dingleyism. A deficit OF
s3s 600 900 is what we have, $50, T.
200 900 greater deficit than the Wilson
hin produced in the preceding year
Dinpiey's estimate was that his bill
vonld produce S113. 900, 600 more than
tbe Wilson bill. We have seen how
the DELAY in its passage reduced this
estimate. according to Mr.. Dingley 5
o,,,, words. to a minimum Of $50, 600, q
0oo more than the Wilson bill. Since
tbe hin produced $40. 900, 900 less than
tbe Wilson bill, Mr.. Dingley 5 estimate
missed the mark just so 900 d 900. -

Mckinley TO Ex.Confederates.

WASHINGTON. July 23.-President
Mckinley has sent the following letter
to Gen. John B Gordon in response to
the resolutions adopted by the Con
federate Veterans Association in ses
sion at Atlanta, Ga:
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
Washington, July %, 1s9s.
Hon. John =. Gordon, Commander.
in. Chief United Confederate Veterans
Atlanta
Dear Gen. Gordon-Your recent
telegram in behalf of the United Con.
federate Veterans was very welcome
and | would have written to you before
in acknowledgment excepting for the
unusual demands upon my time.
The present war has certainly served
one very useful purpose in completely
obliterating the sectional lines drawn
in the last one. The response to the
nation s call TO arms has been equally
spontaneous and patriotic in all parts o.
| the country. Veterans Of the gray, as
we'll as of the blue, are now fighting
side by side, winning equal hOnors anC
renown. Their brave deeds and thi
unequalled triumphs Of our army anC
navy have received the gratitude Of thu
people Of the United States.
To have such hearty commentator
from yourself and your colleagues o
the work of this administration in tn
conduct Of the war, and the pledge 0
whatever support may be needed il
bringing it to a successful completion
is indeed most gratifying; and | thanl
you especially for the frank and cordia
expression of the resolutions passed an
! forwarded to me.
With very kind regards, am sincerel
| yours, WILLIAM MCKINLEY.

If the Democratic party Of Crawford
expects TO accomplish any good as a
party for the cause of the Democracy
IN the nation, state or county, they
must be UNITED. After nominations
are made, there should be a single
effort 10 accomplish victory as marked
out at the primary election. It Is rarely
ever a ticket is presented 20 the voters
Of the party, that Is acceptable in all
particulars to every one. A Democrat,
who Is thoroughly so, makes great
mistake II he casts his vote for an
