scBetween Spain and the United
States of North America hostilities
nave broken out. The moment has ar
cived to prove to the world that we
possess the spirit to conquer those who,
pretending to be loyal friends, take ad-
vantage of our misfortune to abuse our
hospitality, using means that civilized
nations count un worthy and disreputa-
BILE.
THE North American people, consti-
tuted Of all social excrescences, have
exhausted our patience and provoked
wa by their perfdious Vaccinations,
their acts of treachery, their outrages
against the laws of nations and inter-
national conventions.

cisive. The God Of victories will give
us one as brilliant and complete as the
righteousness and justice of our cause

A WAR SONG.

To arms, to arrnsi the eagle screams,
The bugle sounds the call;
The roar of battles on the breeze
Our gallant navy ploughS the seas
Were ready-one and all.
Spartan spirit fills the land,
And mounts upon the gale:
Our flying squadron's furious ride
Upon the ocean, deep and wide
Surcharged with iron hail.
The Stars and Stripes our oriflamme-
The Maine-our battle cry;
Well swift aVenge our ShipmateS' death
Spain-eXecrate, at every breath
And fight her till we die,
Well arbitrate with cannon balls,
Teach rapine to refrain
O'erturn by force of arms. the wrong
In God our trust-in justice, strong.
Till liberty obtain
Well double shot each believing gum
And tinge the oceans red;
Rain down upon SPANS Wanted fleet
An avalanche of iron sleet-
And pave their decks with dead.
AS bravely speed our gallant tars,
Across the raging sea;
Well charge upon the Spanish main
Annihilate the hordes OF Spain
And set poor Cuba free

JOHN SHERMAN SPEAKS.

I'm quitting official life 1 have no
fault to find with any person. 1 would
rather nave remained in the senate,
for 1 did not think the duties of the
state department would be altogether
,congenial to me, but the president
wanted me to retire from there and
enter the cabinet, and l did so to
oblige him. i am finding no fault,
though, for having done so.''
Such are the words of John Sherman.
late secretary of state. And what
momentous words they arel He says
he retired from the senate because the
president wanted him to. The presi-
dent was far more anxious that he re-
tire from the senate than that he enter
the cabinet; he desired John Sherman
to retire from the senate that his cam
paign manager, Marcus A Hanna.
might be appointed to his place. But
why did John Sherman comply with
that wish? For years he was the die
tator in Ohio Republican politics. and
what he desired was the law to his
party. The explanation of his retire
ment must be that age had weakened
his will as we'll as impaired his facul-
ties. Ever since he went into the cabi-
net his utter unfitness for the secre-
taryship of state has been but too ap-
parent to every one. There is note of
saddened disappointment in what Mr..
Sherman says about his retirement. If
ever the full history of that event is
known, and all the deals connected
Herewith, it will be one of the most
scandalous chapters in the history of a
state notorious for it's political
scandals. Already the Ohio senate has
said that Mark Hanna's election to the
senate was the result of corruption in
politics. And that is the opinion of the
whole country.
