We are living in country where it is considered duty to order our military forces against the Indian when he starts on the rampage and murders half a dozen whites, thereby sacrificing the lives of certainly some of our country's defenders in order that Lo may be pun ished. This is also the same country that offers the argument that it is needless to sacrifice more lives to avenge the murder of 266 of our country's defenders. The blowing up of the Maine and the killing of her crew was certainly murder, as we were not at war with Spain at the time.

 in the bank of health means one of two
 things, life of hopeless suffering or an
 early death.
