 Now that the Spanish war is over THE OASIS recalls that in January last, before the destruction of the Maine. in discussing with the editor the probabilities of war, Colonel F. Seymour, president proprietor of the Torres & Pfietas railway, predicted complete col lapse of the Spanish navy. When asked his grounds for the predic- ton the old soldier said: II speak both as a soldier and a mechanic As you we'll know l was a British officer and afterwards manager of mines and railways in Spain. I know Spain has no good mechan- ics. In our mines and railways we had always to import mechanics and engineers from Scotland and England. On the other hand the Americans excell as expert mechan- ics. Now then, naval gunnery is scientific mechanics, and before the science of your thoroughly trained American gunners the Spanish navy will sink beneath the waves like lead, while before the inaccurate Spanish gunnery the American fleet will escape un- scatched. Although a little late in the day to recall this prediction of Col Seymour, it is, neverthe less, very interesting, and the re- suit shows how accurately the gal lant old soldier had read the signs of the times.

WHEN the editor of THE OASIS was a soldier there were three entire days in which officers and men of an entire brigade got nothing to eat but green corn, and that they took from corn fields they marched past. Yet there was no roar about it in the newspapers, and there was no in- vestigating committee summoned from all over the United States to fix the responsibility. But for yellow journals" there would now be no such fuss now.
