The editor desires to express his
most grateful appreciation of the fiat
tering manner in which he was men.
toned last week by the Times Crescent
of Charles county, in connection with
the Democratic nomination for Con
gress in the 9Th District, and of the
handsome endorsement this mention
has received at the hands of his broth
ers 0. the Gazette Although he has
never sought political preferment. he
has always felt that it would be {
pleasing task to serve the people Of
this section in some useful capacity
While never intending to shirk any
call to public duty, and realizing that
nomination by the Democratic party
Of the Fifth Congressional District Of
Maryland is an honor that any man
might covet under ordinary circum-
stances, he feels that he should await
more opportune time than the pres
ent, to urge any claims for recognition
that he may have. The esteem of his
citizens, however, he values as
of greater worth than political honors,
unless those honors come as the spon-
taneous expression of popular will, un-
accompanied by the degrading and cor
rupting influences which mark so many
of the political achievements of recent
times.

THE IMPENDING BATTLE.

Our army in Cuba has now established
its lines within five miles of Santiago and
within two miles of the Spanish line of de-
lenses. The advance, upon the road from
Juragua by Sevilla, rests upon the Rio
GUIANA small stream that runs nearly
parallel with the shore of the bay, enter
ing the sea at Aguadores, from which
point also road runs to the town, sepa-
rated from the other by high wooded hills.
The roads-little more than mountain
trails bordered by thick brush-can be
followed only when the enemy has been
cleared away in advance 1t is over the
hills that the fighting is to be done.
Beyond the Guiana, facing our troops,
lie the irregular hills that enclose the
beautiful bay, and these are covered thick
with those simple but effective defenses
that the Spaniards have learned to employ
III Cuba, succession of rifie-pits, punct-
uated with block houses on each eminence,
and with rows of barbed wire fence wind
ing among the woods in front 1t appears
plain from the description given by the
correspondents that an infantry attack
across works like these, against the deadly
fire of Spanish rifles, is out of the question.
The artillery must get its work in first.
We take it for granted that General
Shafter, having established his preliminary
position, will not open the attack till he
has brought up his guns and got every
thing in readiness. He has landed his
troops and pushed them forward into posi-
ton much faster than he could start the
supply teams or get the roads in condition
for artillery, and it may require day or
two more for these preliminaries, assum-
ing that the Spaniards remain on the de-
fensive. When the time comes there will
probably be a Simultaneous attack by the
fleet upon the Notifications of the harbor
and the battle IS sure to be fierce one.
We may hope that it will be decisive

WAR NEWS.

Admiral Camara's C.dis fleet arrived at
Port Said, the northern terminus of the
Sucz Canal last Sunday
AS Spanish warships are no longer eX-
pected to lombard American cities the
government has decided to abandon the
patrol squadron, and on Monday the San
Francisco and kathadin left Province
town. Mass, for Key West The Colum
follow.
Four thousand of the troops which COM
pose the third expedition to the Philip
pines marched through San Francisco
Sunday and boarded transports. Another
thousand, went on board Monday and
then the fleet started. General Merritt
followed Wednesday in the Newport
with other troops, and is expected to
overtake those departing to-day. With
his arrival at Manila there will be $4,000
soldiers there under his command
Fully 5000 Cuban insurgents are now
concentrated at or near Jurag qua, and are
cooperating With the United States army
The auxiliary cruiser Dixie, manned by
Maryland Naval Reserves, has been as
signed as one of a powerful squadron, un-
der Commodore Watson, to be sent to at
tack the coast Of Spain. The Iowa, Ore
gon, Yankee, Yosemite, Newark and sew
eral collicrs are also to be part of the
squadron.
Spanish vessels captured as prizes were
sold at auction at Key West. The United
States government bought the Argonauta
for use as a transport.
Four thousand more troops, under Gen
eral Macarthur, forming the third Philip
pine expedition, left San Francisco Mon
day on four transports.

The suggestion is made in high mill
tary quarters that Colonel Wood and
Lieutcnant-Co lonel Roosevelt, of the
Rough Riders, may be raised to the
rank Of brigadier-general in recognition
of recent daring exploits in the advance
on Santiago. Thus far the question
of promotion is not known to have adj
vanced beyond the stage of comment,
although, as stated, it is the belief i'll
military quarters that promotion is
likely to result. The Government is
showing commendablc zeal in taking
care of its heroes. Let those who de-
serve the palm, wear it.

Reports of the near approach OF
larger bodies of Spanish troops from
Holguin and Manzanillo may conceiv-
ably hasten General Skaters opera
tions against Santiago. The probabil-
ity of Pando bringing these reinforce
ments to Linares has been recognized
from the first. 1t was at one time
thought that they might be held in
check by the Cubans, but this idea was
apparently abandoned when Garcia S
army was united with Skaters and
the latter has counted on taking San
tiago before Pando could arrive.
This is probably the Interpretation
of his dispatch that he can take the
place in forty-eight hours, but that the
loss must be large. Heis strengthened
by delay, but if he shall conclude that
delay will strengthen the enemy more
lie may decide to attack at once. This
is matter of military Judgment to be
determined on the spot. The latest
dispatches point to an early movement,
and the bulletin boards will be watched
with more than the usual eagerness.
The war has been conducted with
such insignificant losses so far, that
people are not prepared to hear of a
bloody battle even if the victory shall
be complete. 1t is great pity that
General Shafter cannot wait for rein
forcements. Better far to overwhelm
the enemy by superior forces, than to
fight desperate battles with heavy loss
of life,

The summer season is now upon |

The summer season is now upon lis
in its intensity, and it would be well
for everybody to take necessary pre-
cautions to guard against the dangers
incident to hot weather. Every house
holder should keep his premises neat
and clean; noxious weeds should be de
stroyed, unslacked lime should be used
freely, and above all the purity Of
drinking water should be watched with
Jealous care The best sanitary au-
thorities advise the boiling of all water
that is not known to be absolutely
pure, for there is no source more pre-
life of disease than the water taken
from contaminated wells. Careful at.
tention should be given to diet also in
hot weather, the eating Of stale yege-
tables and fruits being particularly
dangerous. Those who take reason
able care can avoid many of the dis
comforts and inconveniences ofthe sui
try summer months.
