SANTIAGO DE CUBA.


June y, 1S9s.
Ed. NEWS Since We have time
and opportunity, We will let the
people OF Big sandy know where
we ars aud what We are doing.
We have made our arrival al
Santiago all right, 10 good health
aud have better hopes Of gaining
victory for the flag that waves over
our county.
We bOmbarded two places yes
terdsy aud climbed TO the heights
OF the fOsi and planted the Ameri-
can flag, and that without loss Of
American blood.
The places taken are from -, to
- miles from Santiago city. We
will make an attack on the latter
soon.
All the boys from Big sandy ar
true to the cause in which they
enlisted and will honor the Stale
from which they came. Some Of
them have bs-n isit at Port Tam
pa. Thcse here are A. follows:

The hills here do not resemble
our hills very much. They do not
have the foliage to give them a
natural look. Most Of the hills
look barren and dry. There are all
kinds Of tropical fruits here.
Most Of the farms have been laid
waste by the Spanish marauders
which tends to make the country
look more desOlate-
In the opinion Of many Ne will
have to stay here only short time
and then 60 on to Havana
There were s. vessels in the trans
port but we cannot obtAiz all the
names. We were accompanied by
a fleet Of l6 gun boats, which led
rs in safety to the port We now Oe-
cupy.
While we are under the direct
rays Of tropical sun, it IS OnlPa few
degrees hotter here than in Ken
lucky.
We have many Disadvantages to
sneOgnter here, as the Spanish
have destroyed everything in their
reach.
The water here's not good by
any means, and being the hottest
part Of the year it makes il hard
on people from n more northern
country and used 10 good water
After We have taken SAnti4gO
We will write our friends again.
Well, we had forgotten to tell yOu
that all Of our boys have taken up
the appearance OF Robinson Cru

EXPANSION.

The Philippine Islands together
with the Sulu archipelago become a
part of the United States. The an
neXation of Hawaii which was so
much talked of last year becomes
nothing when compared with the an
neXatiOn of the great Asiatic archipe-
lagO. What was the addition of no.
900 people to the population compared
with the 100000 of Porto Rico and
100000 or 100000 i'm the Philip
pines. Moreover in Hawaii the peo-
pie are Americanized, they have the
same language, the same school sys-
TEN, the same religion, the same com
mercial STANDARD, as those of the main
land. But in the Philippines the case
is very different. The language, the
school system, the religion, the COM
mercial methods and the general tone
of thought are at variance with the
Anglo Saxon ideals.
The die is cast, however, and the CO.
lonial empire of Spain has disappear
ed from the map of the world, while
the colonial empire of the United
States commences with all it's cares,
and we all trust with all its great
successes. u. L
When we look back and see how
great Spain was and how magnificent

Judge Foster, the news of whose
death at st. Luke's hospital, San Fran

steamer, was a man who was highly
appreciated on the Islands. He was a
deep reader and had very highly cul-
tivated mind. To him was due in a
great measure the excellence of our H.
brary. Political and other reasons
made Judge Foster sever his connec-
ton with Hawaii, but all who knew
him honored him and now mourn the
loss of an able and good man.

The destruction of the Baldwin no.
tel and theater by fire removes one of
the land marks of San Francisco The
theater was the most fashionable in
San Francisco, but was by no means
the prettiest. 1t was really out of
date. Seeing the number of employees
and guests that are in big hotel, it
is surprising that not more people
lost their lives and speaks well for the
fire department of San Francisco.
There will probably be big fire some
day at the Occidental, which belongs
also to the old fashioned style of San
Francisco building The more recent
hotels are better constructed.

her opportunities were, it seems hard
ly realizable that she should have
sunk to the condition she now is in.
At one time she was the dominant
power or the old and the new world,
and the wealth of the Indies was
poured into her lap, and now, who so
poor as Spain?
For four hundred years SPANS UNI
progressive policy has locked up the
Philippines, and has left their wealth
undeveloped. Little more than fifty
years of Anglo-Saxon push and perse-
verance have developed the Hawaiian
Islands into a magnificent and produc-
tive estate. Fifty years of American
rule in the Philippines will make a
wonderful difference there. 1t was
the same story with California. As
long as people of Spanish blood inhab.
tied it, that grand state was asleep;
the moment the Anglo-SaXon set his
foot there everything awoke, and it is
now among the most progressive
states of the world.
There will be mighty awakening
in the Philippines. Capital will flow
in, people of push and progress will
flock there. the mines will be explor
er for and developed, the sugar viii
be cultivated and manufactured upon
modern principles and not in the hap
Ply go lucky style that has obtained
up to the present, trade will be de.
veloped and not thwarted as it has
been under the Spanish rule. The in
habitants will be less taxed and viii
be taught to be industrious and finally
the English language will take the
place of the Spanish among the peo
pie.
Looking forward there are grea
possibilities, but they will be reached
through many mistakes and mucl
anxiety. It is impossible for coun
try to make an essay in the govern
ment of distant provinces withou
making mistakes, but every mistake
will only serve to make the future tn
better and brighter. In this lies tn
difference between the Latin and tn
Anglo-SaNon. The one improves b,
his very errors. the other perpetuate
his errors and hugs them to hi
heart. The dawn of very long nigh
is now breaking over the Philippines

The establishment of the First Ma
tional Bank of Hawaii presents one of
the effects of annexation. Talking
with the other bankers they seem
quite ready to welcome the new COM
petitor and say that competition is the
best thing that can occur either to
bankers or any one else. The entrance
of more capital into the country will
be of advantage to many who are en-
gagged in minor industries.

The Hongkong papers by the City

NEW radiant BURNER

Attachment, which does not
increase the price of the lamp,
but enhances the value very
much. This burner is some
thing new, and gives a bril-
liant, steady light, equal to
electricity, without consuming
any more oil.
For years we have been try
ing to find a hall and lanai
lamp that would look we'll and
that would not blow out by
the wind. We have been sue
cessful, and have them on sale.
They are enclosed in a neat
black frame, with glass sides,
light in weight and moderate
in cost.
We guarantee that when
this lamp is once lighted no
wind, no matter how vigorous,
can blow it out.
We also have this make of
Lamps in the Piano and Study

new colorings.

THE LOCK AND THE KEY.

You can operate lock only with
the key that fits it. Very well. So
you can cure a disease only with the
medicine that goes down to the cause
Of it. Now, many so-called diseases
are in truth only forms Of one disease,
branches Of one tree, as we may say.
For example, if we can nourish the
body and enrich the blood, we speedily
get rid of many of our troubles,
such as Anemia, Fevers, Rheumatism,
Scrofula and Blood Disorders, and so
on-all proofs that the body lacks
vitality and force. Nothing is so
effective body builder as cod liver
oil but, alas, how many are nau-
seated at the very thought Of it. In

SOUND ADVICE.

If you have an ambition to own 40
good fowls as anybody, did you ever
think how long it would take you to
attain that object by means OF birds
now in your possession, which you
know are not above second or third
class? If the man who owns the first
class birds bred and reared them
himself, he has spent 5, 10 or 20 years
in Learning how to do it. He has done
an immense amount Of experimenting
and made countless mistakes, hut by
dint Of incessant study and tireless
labor and patience he has cleared
away the obstacles which so long de-
feated his aspirations, and now pre-
sents to our admiring gaze a pro-
duct which we would like to make our
own, and which a large sprinkling OF
us believe it is a dead easy job for US
to obtain. But you have got to travel
over the same road in order to reach
the same results, and however bright
you may be you are not likely to &C.
complish the journey in any less time
than he has done. You must regis
ter one failure after another, gaining
a point one year and losing it the
next, but all the while accommodating
experience, which will in the end
place you on the same footing In
which this breeder stands today. But
he will not be idle all the years dur
ing which you are getting your
schooling. He will be learning right
along, and when you occupy the same
position that he does now in point OF
knowledge and skill he will still be a
long ways ahead Of you.--Poultry
Messenger.

Corn and weeds are growing nicely.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Shirk visited
relatives Sunday at this place.
Miss Arminta Tolbert Of Abilene Is
visiting in this vicinity
Mr.. and Mrs. Will House were up
from Manhattan last week to attend
the funeral of Mr.. Houses mother
who died at Oswego and was buried
here.
Harvest will commence in about
two weeks and will be very short as a
great many outfits will harvest here.
A few of our farmers report slight
damage to their wheat by the hail
last week.
Talking Of high wages it is evident
that men will try to work an injus-
tice to employers this harvest.
Farmers as rule are willing to pay
good wages, but it is certain that
wages this harvest will never reach
the two dollar day mark. We have
lived in Dickinson county % years
and harvested the crops from virgin
soil and never have we seen the gen.
eral wages that high.
