Yellaw Fever Inmune.

The statement of DR.. Guiteras, who
is justly regarded as a high authority
in yellow fever, that the troops who
are to take the place of the army at
Santiago will be safe from the disease
should quiet the alarm of those who
have friends among the immunes. The
mischievous people who have expressed
a contempt for professional opinion
and rashly affirmed that there is no
exemption from yellow fever have
caused unnecessary anxiety. That
there have been instances in which psr-
sons have had yellow fever twice is as
certain as that persons have suffered
more than one attack of smallpox, OF
scarlatina, measles whooping cough
and other contagious diseases, but such
an experience is very exceptional. II
does not occur often enough to cause
the least fear, as there is quite as
much probability Of yellow fever I'M
mune being struck by lightning at
home as of falling victim a second
time to fever in Cuba. Most Of those
who have had this disease have been
used to a southern climate and are in
no more danger from malarial disor-
ders than the natives of Cuba.

our troops. brought under fire for the
first time in Porto Rico. exhibited the
same splendid qualities that won for
us the strongholds surrounding Santi-
ago. The always magnificent regulars
set the pace for the volunteers in
Cuba, and If the latter were less grim
and more hilarious than the veterans
they were not less courageous and de-
termined. In Porto Rico new volun-
teers came into action-men from
Pennsylvania and Ohio and Wiscon-
sin and other States-who had never
before risked life in war. Here was the
same fearlessness, the same determine
ton under the fire of a hidden foe, and
the same impetuosity in driving many
times their own number from the field.
1t win be good to remember, good to
recite to coming generations, that in
Porto Rico and in the Philippines the
American soldier, regular and vOlun-
teer. proved that the valor which so
amazed the military spectators from
other countries at Santiago was not
exceptional and due to a singular sit
uation there, but that it belongs to
Americans of all sections of the coun-
try and is displayed in any circum-
stances.
The dispatches this morning reveal
Miles plan of campaign. which must
challenge the admiration of military
experts. The capture of important
towns on the west coast, also, was
part of that plan, which meant the de-
moralization of the enemy in his
stronghold at San Juan by the sue
cessive fall of every town on every
highway to the capital, while it Sc
cured the American army against op-
eratiCns in its rear or on its fianks.
The early surrender of San Juan, at a
very small cost Of life to the Ameri-
cans, was inevitable. and from the
soldier point of view it is pity that
the intervention of peace stops the
game before it is played out.
Whether there will be news of mere
fighting at Manila before the peace
message reaches General Merritt, We
can only guess. There is strong
probability of another attempt on the
part of the Spaniards to dislodge the
Americans, although the lesson of tbs
night of July 81 was severe. 1t need
cause no surprise to learn that con-
fiict has been brought on by the plac-
ing of troops to strengthen the Ameri-
can position near Malate. and that it
involved large number on both sides
and perhaps the fall of Manila itself.

Ill T.mrer md Rnbie.

The usual mad dog scare has made
its appearance in the intervals of war
fare, and one reads items here and
there in the papers about policemen
playing tag up and down stairs with
rabid colIies, and men who heroically
clutch the dangerous animal just in
time and in the right place to pre-
vent his biting anyone. 1t may have
been noticed that this scare is a little
late in appearing this year. Its tardi-
ness is probably caused by the war.
This must not. be taken as an inti-
nation that the dogs have been read
ing the bulletin-boards and bowling for
Old Glory with the rest Of the popula-
ton. Il simply means that n great
deal of human restlessness and re-
pressed energy which would otherw-s-

conducive to i'll temper. There is
great deal of pent-up nervous energy
in the average human being. which
cannot find its outlet in exercise. pleas
ure or hard work, without discomfort,
and it comes out in the form of ILL
temper. Then the American citizen
becomes amenabe to the suggestion
of that French-Canadian philosopher
who said: Il don't want to fight. me.

body" And so there is dissension in
the bosom of the family, and the dog
gets his share of the misery. A stray
kick results in resentment and a show
of ill-temper on the part of the dog.
He has been mauled by the children
and .'shOoed" by the housewife and
tormented by flies and other in
sects, and his temper is in just as bad
a condition as anyone's else. And so
he is hustled off to the pound, or in
continently shot, through no fault Of
his own. If dog owners would only

many cases of actual madness result

The Last Fighting.

the last blood of foreign foe shed by
American soldiers in this hemisphere
for an indefinite time, must have a par
ticular interest, although the lack of
courage on the part of the enemy kept
the action down to the rank of a mere
skirmish. If the American soldiers
had made a lighter impression on the
Spanish mind in the battles before San
tiago, there would have been a serious
attempt to prevent the landing of our
troops in Porto Rico and a more de-
term:ned stand against their advance
AS il was, the Spanish officers were
unable to hold their men to their work
In nearly every little skirmish one or
more of these officers fell. while the
soldiers fled in disorder. The fear of
the intrepid American was upon them,
and even in ambush they were too
ready to retreat to make use of their
opportunity.

FRIDAY. AUGUST II. 1895.
Peace Has Come.

The end virtually came when the
French ambassador was authorized to
sign the protocol on behalf Of Spain.
AS the officials here retired last night
everything waited on that. There was
no reason to think the delay meant
anything more than the native dispo-
sition of the Spaniard To procrastinat..
though, of course, there was alway s
the possibility of a sudden change of
purpose on the part of the ministry
The President displayed decided firm
ness almost at the expense of pol te-
ness in demanding instant action, with
the alternative of a more energetic
prosecution Of the war and a breaking
off of all peace proceedings This alone
saved us from an almost endless dis
cussion that would have beclouded the
issues and perhaps enabled the astuta
Spaniard to gain by diplomacy what
he has lost on the field of battle.
The only point about which there
has been any uneasiness is the disposal
of the Philippines, and the natu, al
anxiety of the people is not to BE- re-
lieved until the personnel of the peace
commission is known and perhaps not
until the commission acts. That Sa-
gasta has never inferred from the
Presidents note that we might choose
to hold the islands is more apparent
since the premier has advocated their
sale. Indeed, there is nothing in the
note to suggest that We might assume
permanent control there. There is a
popular impression that the Pres Mt
has waited to learn what the sentiment
of the people is. and that he will be
guided entirely by that.
The last shot has been fired by Amer
ican soldiers in Cuba and in Porto r CO,
since it is practicable to inform the
commanders in those islands of the
signing of the protocol and the prepa-
ration of the armistice proclamation
almost instantly. 1t will take longer
time to carry the news to the Philip
pines, although a fast vessel at Hcng-
kong awaits the cable message and
will make record breaking time to Ma
Mia.
The questions that must arise in con-
nection with the Cubans in arms and
the insurgents in the Philippines will
not press for immediate decision.
In the hope that there will be no
shirking of our duty to ourselves and
to future generations Of Americans in
respect Of the Pacific islands: of our
duty to the people there of all classes,
and of our duty to mankind. we may
rejoice that we have reached the end of
a war that will prove to be worth many
times the lives and money it has cost
1t will be no easy thing to place a
just estimate on the value to America
and the world of this brief conflict that
has been but a succession of American
victories on land and on sea. Anything
that would cause the President to re-
linquish control Of the most important
territory that the fortunes of war
have placed in our hands must deprive
US of one of the chief fruits of our tri-
umph: but, if we hold to all. there
need be no limit to the rejoicing over
the achievement of an honorable and
glorious peace after the righteous pun
ishment of an ancient and barbarous
wrongdoer.

The Cuban blockade

IT is mentioned in the news columns
this morning that the Navy Depart
ment has been aware for some time
that the blockade of the southwestern
coast of Cuba was not as effective as
it should be. Since this fact is noted
and since the blockade of Cuban ports
has been made one of the chief reasons,
if not the only one. for the favor shown
to Sampson over SchIey, 1t may be well
to consider the whole matter.
From time to time it was discovered
that ports not far from Havana were
receiving supplies almost regularly by
blockade runners, which had no diffl-
Guilty in evading our vessels and in
landing provisions. arms and passen-
that threatened to re-enforce Linares
and Toral at Santiago had been well
fed and well supplied with ammunition
at a harbor the existence Of which
seemed to have been unknown to or ig-
nored by the naval commander in
charge of the blockade. 1t seems to
have been learned by accident, prob
ably from a deserter or refugee. that
blockade runners were out and in al
most on schedule time. So undisturbe I'd
had been the Spanish troops at that
point that they We're able TO construct

without being run down for many
weeks. IL was easy for other vessels to
run into less important harbors. For
a time. too, long after Havana was
said to be effectively secluded from
the world. the Spaniards protested to
the powers that the American blockade
was so Intellectual as to warrant some
action toward declaring it an open
port There was a disposition to re-
gard this as Spanish falsehood, but
the correspondents of the London jour
mails reported the frequent arrival Of
large ships with all sorts of supplies.
feTndpS tNe DlCckdue OF 1uDdn ports
was as thorough as possible with the
warships that could be spared for the
purpose. though the criticisms were
made before Ce-vera ran into Santiago
harbor and had to be watched by so
many of our vessels. But since the
efficiency of this blockade service is
made the basis of SIMPSONS preference
it is only fair that the country should
have just idea of the manner in
which it was performed. To the land
lubber, he-Spanish boast that Havana
received supplies long after the har-
Dor was said to be closed, the discov-
cry that ten thousand Spanish troops
were fed by blockade runners, and the
admission that a large part of the coast
was not effectively patrolled. are not
proofs of SIMPSONS extraordinary vigi-
lance and skill. If such things were
unavoidable and blameless the land
lubbers should be told so.
The evening times., 1898-08-12

1t might be Interesting to learn from
Sagasta what is the good of peace
with America If it is to be the signal
for war with the Carlists. However,
1t may be gratifying to have somebody
expend the bitterness that has followed
defeat. The history of the other Carlist
uprising is full of evide of the utter
barba-ity and almost unparalleled cruel
ty of the Spanish regulars. Women
and children were tortured, while the
,eyalists gloated over their agony.
