Miss rauline reytOn Graduates.

Miss Pauline Peyton, formerlyof this
county, was among the graduating class
at the LOretto Catholic school at Den
yer, June -. The Denver News, speak
ing Of the graduates, says of Miss
PeytOn:
Miss Peyton would be first singled
out because of her extremely youthful
appearance. She is the youngest ever
graduated and is not yet ia concen-
trated little bundle of sparkling abili-
ty. Miss Peyton is a descendant Of an
old Virginia family on one side, the
Peytons, and of her mothers ancestry
she can lay claim to the historical Ian
casters of Maryland. True colonial
blood courses through her southern
veins. In these Cuban times it might
be added that her great grandfather
was counsel at Mantanzas in 1921"

sLAHI-THa = CUBANs.

The Cuban allies Of the American
forces engaged at Santiago are subject
70 z continuous crOss-fre, not only Of
Spanish bullets, but Of American news
paper criticism. They have it that
they are mo account" ssshOw the white
feather" and wont work. etc. These
criticisms are both unjust and unkind-
What could be expected Of half-starved
balf-nUde and poorly armed irregulars
Of Garcia's army? As TO showing the
white feather, some newspapers report
that they have done good work and
have been q valuable adjunct to our
forces. Again, they have been school
ed to maintain guerrilla warfare, just
as Washington and Green instructed
their forces to harrass the enemy but
avoid a general engagement, in their
campaigns against the British. 1t was
fight and run away" when Outnum-
bersd. and, because they practice the
same strategy that force Of circUmstan-
ees has compelled them to adopt, they
are called towards. To say nothing Of
the previous "ten years war" for near
II four years they have not only held
the Spanish forces at bay, but they
have gained ground largely against
10000 troops, with modern arms, that
Spain has sent into the field against
them. Even the disciplined American
troops find Spaniards no mean fOemen
and vet the Cubans are called towards.
It don't jibe with facts. "They eat!"
Well, who bIames the half-starved and
enfeebled wretches? "They wont do
any work" No soldier will do any
work at the beck of Tom, Dick and
Harry. He don't have to, unless he is
regularly detailed" on a reqUisitiOn
from proper authority, and, under the
command Of his immediate superior
officer. Work smacks Of punishment
to a soldier. The newspapers do not
show that a formal request was made
to Gen. Garcia and that he refused to
make a fatigue detail" or that being
made Cubans refused to work. Any
old soldier can see at a glance through
these gauzy and malicious reports.
Give the Cubans a fair chance and see
If they don't acquit themselves with
credit. It seems to be a fad to ISLAM"
the Cubans. There is a lurking sus-
picion that there is method in this
madness" 1t won't work. Americans
are in favor Of fair play, and having
pledged themselves before the world
TO give the Cubans independence, they
will redeem that pledge to the last
letter of the proclamation.

THE sCHIEY-sAMPs0N BUSINESS.

1t is said that in the naval register
Watson stands No. 6, Schley 8, and
Sampson 10, 50 that both Watson and
and SchIey Out-Fank Sampson. Not a
word can be said against the officer
ike conduct and efficiency of these
naval men who have grown gray in the
service of their country with no OppOr-
Unity to distinguish themselves. Now
5 the opportunity Of a lifetime for
which they have waited long and pa
riently. It's no wonder that such op-
.,ortunity is coveted.
Yet Sampson, a junior in rank, takes
the golden opportunity by being given
,s0mmand, over ranking officers, Of the
iargest squadron Of modern warships
ever assembled in American waters.
II there is a good and sufficient reason
for this it has never been made public.
his practice is demorlizing to either
srmy or navy. The nation had trial
OF this in the civil war, and thousands
OF soldiers lives were thrown away at
the last battle of BnH Run through
jsLOsies and rivaIries of army officers
growing out of the removal of Gen.
McCIelIand from command.
Gen. Fitz John Porter was cashiered
tia service for his part in that awful
affair, and had he been shot it would
have been no more than the rules of
Wat require. Besides, the people took
81 les in the controversy and greatly
Lbarrassed the administration, and
even to this day the merits Of the case
Is a mOOted question, many claiming
that McClelland was hampered and
q lally removed because he was a dem
ocrat. Now it is said Sampson is a
republican and SchIey is a democrat.
Whether this is the case or not, there
must be a "bar sinister" somewhere
The United States statutes provide
fjr special promotions for conspicuous
g4llantry. But what has Sampson done

s1periors. Here is a bit Of poetic
Justice After Schley had bottled up
CeFera in the harbOr Of Santiago,
comes Sampson on the scene. The
two squadrons had been distinct up to
this time, but now Schley's squadron is
merged IN SIMPSONS while Schley is
officially smOthered and second in the
command. But when the Spanish
admiral made his break for the open
sea, Schley IN command OF the fleet
annihilates his feet, leading the at
tack and bearing the brUnt Of battle
His flagship, the Brooklyn, was struck
10 times and the only casualties were

Sampson was temporarily absent
and arrived on the scene after the bat
tie was practically over, while Sehley

report Sampson fOrbids Schley's send

"To many Of the people," he con.

watch on the legislation on this sub.
Ject and subsequent proceedings, are
not aware or probably have forgotten,
that the scheme Of the Governor was
to build five separate buildings.
when done and all completed it
would have looked a good deal like
an Indian village minus the great
chieftain. The estimated cost of the
architects amounted to upward of
S3,OOO,O00, which, with the expert
ence builders have with architects
estimates, ought to be multiplied by
two to get at the exact cost, and
would exceed the cost of the proposed
legislative building with the two
wings added for departmental pur.
pose"
He maintains that the idea of the
other commissioners, to have but one
building, and costing perhaps 81 800.
600, would be the most economical
and best 10 the end He says he does
not think the Governors plan to
build s550,000 capitol twill make

cheap. Still it may fire the heart of
