idea of allowing foreign missionaries to

Delay is the watchword of Spain,
the plan of her whole campaign. Often
delay is wise policy for the weaker
nation in conflict. Delay postpones

with the nations which are unfriendly

The talk about naval demonstra
ton by Europe in Cuban waters is
merely repetition of the tales which
came out in the cable dispatches every
day or two for short time before the
war began. Such a menace, of course
would be directed against the United
States. This was part of SPANS plan
to get her French German and Aus
trlan allies to bring pressure on the
United States to force this country to
let Cuban atrocities continue The
project was defeated by the refusal IF
England to participate in it. Eng
lands hostility to any sort of pres-
sure against the United States is
stronger now then it was then. One
or two naval demonstrations in Cuban
waters, however, are due about this
time-those against Cervera and
Blanco.

Our Maine Troops at Chickamauga.

A week has passed since our Maine
regiment embarked at Augusta in the
specia, trains that We're to bear it to
the great camp in northern Georgia.
In addition to the Geographic dis
patches telling of their journey AMI
arrival letters are now arriving giving
the welcome details and making happy
hundreds of Maine homes. The list
Maine now more often spoken of as
the 18th IT, S. Volunteer Infantry, re-
ceived through the whole of its tire
some ride of three days and nights, the
grand ovation which it deserved. and
reached Chickamauga with spirits ana
health still the best. Now it is settling
down into the routine of camp HE
there, among half a hundred other
regiments. adapting itself to the more
rigorous discipline and warlike condl-
lions than existed at Augusta, and
hoping anXiously it may be one of the
first selected to push on to Florida and
thence to Cuba.
The whole State has been thrilled
with pride at the words of praise of our
regiment spoken by all the Chlcka-
manga correspondents and by the high
officers of the camp. 1t is gratifying
but not at all surprising to find that
the superb organization sent out by
the Pine Tree State is appreciated by
those in authority, and that it COM
pares most favorably with any regi-
ment of any state. We know of what
and that it is perfectly armed and
equipped and finely drilled. OF course
it appears to fine advantage among the
SO, 900 men at Chickamauga. Why
shouldn't it? The sprigs of pine on
those thousand campaign hats means
"Dirigo," and no men from any state
wear prouder emblem.
1t was especially pleasing news to
Maine to receive the announcement
that Col Kendall has been appointed
brigade commander of a brigade com
posed of the Maine regiment, one from
Mississippi and one from Iowa. This
is a high honor, and ii does not re-
quire a prophet to see that it is his
first step toward a commission as brig
adler general The whole State eX-
tends congra tulations to gallant Col.
Kendall, commander of the third
brigade of the third division of the
third corps. The combination of these
three regiments in brigade is an in
spring one. North South and West
are there united in the closest bonds
known within an army. Such an al
lance is a striking demonstration Of
how thoroughly amalgamated this
glorious nation of ours now is. All
honor to the Maine boys at Chicka
mauga. our thoughts are with them
ever, and our hearts will follow every
movement they make until they are
home again, their duty done and their
fame secure.
