An Echo of the Day.

Mr.. EDITOR: If you have space in
your paper will you please publish the
following:
We had a glorious Fourth. I cannot
keep my pen still when l look over our
beautiful valley in all its verdure and
beauty; our bountiful fields Of grain and
all the blessings we need bestowed upon
US.
Our enterprising citizens gave us a
Fourth that was so grandly planned
one momentous event following another
so closely there seemed to be a stream of
constant pleasure. The parade was one
any city might feel proud of as far as
quality was concerned, and the beaming
faces of the farmers sons and daughters
smiling upon us give ME the thought of
the Psalmist: "Their cup runneth over"
Indeed, all 1 feel sorry about is that
some of our city folks are so dilatory in
greeting them with pleasant smiles,
knowing it is through the farmers Prov
luSHSS SSlluS III IL lHS SOOU lAIISo u
life.
Our Nebraska Brigade band carries
merit with it. It has brought home
high honors from the larger cities.
Their music certainly does inspire us all,
and nothing cheers the soul like good
music. The members constituting the
band are good citizens. 1t is all educa-
tor in itself and, as we are all human
and will initiate, we cannot help feeling
proud to have our families follow a band
composed of such fine gentlemen.
Our city on orthodoxy has not to take
a back seat. We have among our min
listers those who are not afraid to give us
clean facts; men who will not dispute
the truth, but give us the truth which
Jesus taught, knowing from fact that
Gods word will take care of itself. Rev.
Mr.. Turner gave us All Grafton which
made our pulses beat faster and gladder
and gave us an idea of what noble men,
who are in power. not owing to some po-
pull but to their standing as men,
can accomplish. He told our farmers to
vote for the man who will give them a
square deal all along the line; a man
such as we have found in our hero, Adj
Dewey.
We had a day of rejoicing, the only
being that which all the nation
felt, and we can repeat III the words of
General Miles, "Our only regret is the
great number of gallant souls who have
given their lives for country's cause"
MRS. JAS. FITZPATRICK.

One of the worst sea disasters on
record is the sinking of the French
liner ''Bourgogne" which occurred
on the morning Of July 4th, sixty
miles south of Sable island, south
of Newfoundland. Six hundred
persons were drowned. 1t is re-
ported that little effort was made
by the French crew to rescue the
.perishing and that in many instan-
ces murder was committed by mem
bers of the ships crew in order to
save themselves. But one woman
was saved. The liner came in COL
lision with the British merchant
ship "Cromartyshire" in a dense
fog while running at a high rate
Of speed and sank in ten minutes.

Uncle Sam is not only coming out
into a larger place, but he is going
to stand there and show the nations
of the earth what true American
ism is and what it can do for the
earth. America stands for the
best that mankind has yet attained
in the government of the people
for and by the people. 1t stands
for the best and purest ideals of
not only government but of morals
and religion and business. And
when it comes to fighting, Uncle
Sam is not so slow either.

PLEASANT RIDGE,

Some of the Ridgites worked Oh
the Fourth.
Small grain is ready to cut and
everybody has bought a binder.
Grandma Brown has recovered
her speech and is getting better
Her many friends in Red Willow
county will be pleased to hear this
Before the rain, last week, WE

entations about the drouth that
was coming. But it did not come.
We I requested to say that
Children's Day will be observed at
the sod school house, next Sunday
at II o'clock, with appropriate ex-
ercises.
Mrs. E. G. Goehring's brother
writes from Toledo, Ohio, hat he
enjoyed the sights at the exposi-
ton and was surprised at its mag
nlficence.
The Fourth was celebrated at
the Stone Ranch by Trenton, Gull
bertson, Cornell and surrounding
country. Patriotic speeches were
made by people, who knew the art
of speaking. One of the best
speeches was made by Harry Ris-
ley, and the girls said Harry took
the cake, but they would not have
him know that they said it for
anything. Cheers were given with
a will for Dewey, Hobson, Samp-
son and the entire American army.
There was first class music given
by the Culbertson band and Cor
nell glee club. There were plat
forms for dancing and this amuse-
ment vas enjoyed by the young
and everything was Just as lively
as a great crowd Of we'll behaved
people could make it.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1898-07-08

The indications now are that
the army at Santiago will be prop
erly equipped in every particular
and provided with artillery and
siege guns, that commissary and
quartermasters' supplies, ammuni-
ton and hospital stores will be on
hand before any more fighting will
be engaged in. The TRIBUNE be-
lieves the waste of life to have been
unnecessary and useless, to put it
mildly and not to be censorious.
There is little or no excuse for al
lowing brave men to rush into such
a hell of destruction, when the re-
suits can be obtained more easily
and with much less loss of life after
artillery has been used to good adj
vantage. The facts are that the
American forces were lily prepared
with artillery and in the assaults
were mown down by the hundreds,
Less haste and more thorough
preparation are needed. Human
lives are of vastly more Importance
than time or the winning of fame
for a commander. Let not the
lessons of the rebellion be lost
sight of entirely.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1898-07-08

IT would now be interesting
and instructive to have a diagram
of the European estimate of Amer
lean naval efficiency and army val
OF. All the original lines of the
old diagram would be erased and
in their stead would appear some
lines and colors never dreamed Of
by the self-sufficient and remark
ably complacent European. The
American army and navy have in
this var for humanity and justice
and honor won imperishable re-
nown and again proven the uncon-
querable courage of a people Of
"shop keepers people best ac-
quainted with the arts of peace,
but not incapacitated to wage sue
cessful wal for the right.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1898-07-08

Nor since the stirring times OF
the rebellion have the people Of the
United States celebrated a Fourth
of July SO fraught with intense
interest and profound significance
as the one we have just celebrated,
marking as it does the complete
destruction of Admiral Cervera's
superb fleet. Never until the un-
paralleled victory of Admiral
Dewey at Manila has the world
seen a victory SC complete and
overwhelming as that suffered by
the Spaniards on the Hateful day
of July 18th, 1898, off the southern
coast of Cuba. The two victories
stand out in bold relief as unprec-
edented in naval annals and cast a
glamour of glory over the exploits
of the American navy as %imperish-
able as bravery and as indestructi-
BILE as Anglo Saxon grit.

AN authority says: A Russian
fights for empire, a Turk for faith,
a Dutchman for pay, a Spaniard
for jealousy, an Italian for re-
venge, a German for home, a
Swiss for liberty, a Scotchman for
kin, an Englishman for trade, an
Irishman for fun, a Yankee for
peace and a fool for nothing.
