A Phenomenal RECORD

III lILlIUlllLNIlL nLOUHD
American Soldiers Seem to Bear
Charmed Lives Against Span-
ish Missiles, in this War.
In many ways this is the most
remarkable of all wars. says the
New York World. In none
is it more SO than in the as
founding absence of casualties on
our side, even where the fighting
has been heaviest. Look at the
record:
Dewey sailed into hostile har-
Dor, engaged both fleet and forts
and destroyed both. Not a man
was killed on our side.
Sampson bombarded the forts at
San Juan and so crippled them
that, as he reported, he could have
taken the place without difficulty.
Again there was not man killed
GU our side.
Hobson took his ship past the
batteries into Santiago harbor and
there blew her mp to blockade the
channel. 1t was most desperate
undertaking, but still again not a
man was killed on our side.
Finally Sampson las blown to
bits the forts at San ;ppo, boosted
"Old Glory" over on OF them,
sunk Spanish war ship in the har-
Dor and made himself master of the
situation after terrific lombard
ment of three hours duration, and
again not man was killed on our
side.
What does it mean? Bad Span
ish workmanship. in part, of course
but the worst workmanship in the
world scarcely accounts for such a
series of facts. Even men who
shut their eyes and aim their guns
at random in the dark would ordi-
narily do some execution when dis
charging great Krupp guns, rapid
fire guns and machine guns for
hours at time in the general di-
rection of am enemy
1t is an astonishing record, with
out prrallel in history.
The State Gazette of Tuesday,
in a two column article laments
and whines about the lack of
recognition of the Fourth District,
in the distribution of Federal
offices, and draws comparison in
the districts which are always
odious. 1t will be remembered
the editor himself was a candidate
for appointment as United States
District Attorney, and failing, it
seems to have "soured" him some
what. Those who read the labored
fSticle, between the lines, will see
that it is thrust at Congressman
Miller, whom the Gazette opposes
for a denomination on the Re-
publican ticket. But we will
wager a good deal that Mr.. Miller
will be re-nominated by the Re-
publicans Notwithstanding the OPP
position of the Gazette.
Some of the "grabbers" may
curse and abuse Gen. McCausland
for the course he has taken in re-
gard to the financial affairs of this
county, but his active work in this
regard, will save the taxpayers
hundreds of dollars annually, by
having their taxes materially re-
duced from year to year. He is
not "repudiationist'' as some call
him, but is determined the County
Court shall keep within the law.
In this paper will be found a
letter from Hon. Holly G. Arm
strong, calling a meeting of the
Democratic Congressional Execu-
tive Committee at Ripley for July,
7th. Let our committeeman at
tend and insist on the convention

The true way to be humble is
not to stoop until you are smaller
than yourself, but to stand at your
real height against some higher
nature that shall show you what
the real smallness of your great

A clergyman preached rather
long sermon from the text, "Thou
art weighed in the balance and
found wanting After the con-
gregation had listened about an
hour some began to get weary and
went out; others soon followed,
greatly to the annoyance of the
minister. Another person started,
whereupon the parson stopped his
sermon and said: THAT is right,
gentlemen; as fast as you are
weighed pass out!" He continued
his sermon some time after that,
but no one disturbed him by
leaving.

Successful Examination.

Chas Ponainvillp, student from
Grand Rapids aC the Chicago College OF
Dental Surgery, recently wrote an
examination before the Illinois State
Board of Dental Examiners Charles
is working hard to prepare himself
thoroughly in the arts of the dental
profession and he took the quiz, as he
himself expressed it, just to see how
little he did know and also to learn how
such things are conducted. He passed
the "eNam" with flying colors which
entitled him to certificate of uuahfi-
cation good for regular practice any
where IN the state ol Illinois But ne
did not take the certIffcate-his goal
is higher up-he got the experience,
demonstrated his ability to the pardon
able proud satisfaction of himself and
friends. and Is content with that for th.
present The REPORTER is pleased to
