flag TO the Massachusetts and, signal
ing the Iowa and the New Orleans to
form q column and follow, the ships
steamed past the forts. The Massachu-
setts's heavy 10 inch guns and the
Iowa's IL inch guns opened fire on the
Christobal Colon, which was lying
about 1000 yards inside the harbor,
while the New Orleans directed an open
fire at the batteries, in order to draw
their fire. 1t is believed that the Chris
tobal Colon was hit twice but not SER
iously damaged, as the great speed of
the American vessels and the narrow
ness Of the entrance to the harbor pre-
vented accurate aim. The entire set OF
forts, six in number, answered and the
object of the expedition was accom-
plished. Some shots from the forts
we're made with smokeless powder and
we're well aimed but no American ships
were hit and no casualties occurred on
our side.
The Americans only fired four rounds
from the big guns and the Spanish
fred more than 100 and kept on firing
after the American ships we're miles out
OF range. 1t is clearly evident that the
Spanish have strongly fortified the
harbor at Santiago and have a number

OUR BALANCE OF TRADE.
The Present We are making TO
Foreign Money Lenders.

The gold standard papers OF the
country are calling attention to the
great increase of our exports, as COM
pared with u imports, since the LIST OF
last July. The record is, indeed, n
hat has never been equaled in the his
tory of our country. Up to April Both
our exports for the preceding ten
months had amounted to 81, 025, 426, 6s1
while the imports for the same period
amounted to only s511, 1S1, 1856, making
an excess of exports of s5l4, 245, 495, or
over 100 per cent. II we add to this
amount $40, $40, 800, which is the ex-
cess of our exports of silver for the same
period. and then deduct from the sum,
s97, 73s, 29s, which is the excess OF u
imports of gold, we have left in our IA
vor an apparent balance of s454, 12s, 900
ON ten months transactions with foreign
nations.
What has become Of it? We have
sent out this enormous sum in mer-
chandise and money more than we
nave received, and what have we to
show for it? Is 1t on the other side OF
the Atlantic deposited to the credit OF
our merchants? Not much Of 1t a be
accounted for in that way when foreign
exchange is selling in New York above
par and is getting so scarce that the
tide of gold is apt to turn agsinst US at
any moment. The war scare theory
falls entirely to the ground when we
find that the present condition cf our
foreign trade is nothing new.
According to statistics compiled by
the Treasury Department OF the u. s.,
in the last five years u exports OF
merchandise, gold and silver have ex-
ceeded our imports by 81, 2l1, 87s, 092, an
average of over $240, 600, 600 a year, and
since 1873, the balance in u favor has
amounted TO the enormous sun OF
80. $50, 306, 1897. For 1t we have received
no return either in money or goods.
There is only one explanation for
for this startling deficit. 1t is the pre-
MUM we are paying for the gold stan
darl |; it is the interest we are paying
foreign capitalists for the use OF their
gold. 1t is a dead loss to the American
people, the price we are paying for
what we can dig out Of our mines
and coin at our own mints. And yet
the gold standard papers point with
pride to this enormous balance, a bal.
ance of which we are making a present
every year to the foreign money lenders.
How long the richest OF nations can
maintain its financial independence,
while charging up two hundred and
fifty millions a year to profit and loss,
is a problem to which the American
people may well turn their attention.

HAVE YOU WRITTEN HOME TO
MOTHER?

The following is a poem which was
presented by a Carson lady to a Nevada
soldier boy, as he took the train for
Cheyenne to be mustered into service.
Let every young man who is away from
home read it and profit.
Pray let me ask you soldier lad
Whose smiles no care can smother,
Though only life throngs round about,
Have you written home to mother?
You are forgetting, aren't you quite,
How fast the weeks are flying,
How that little faded sheet
Unanswered still Is lying9
Won't you remember how she stood
With wistful glance at parting?
Won't you remember how the tears
We're in those soft eyes starting?
Won't you remember how her arms
Stole round you to caress you?
Don't you remember those soft words,
Good bye! my son, God bless you?
oh do not wrong that patient love
Save God there is no other
To guide us through this world of sin:
Oh! Fear not to write to mother.
Tell her how hard it is to walk
AS walked the Savior lowly.
Tell her how hard 1t is to keep
A mans life pure and holy.
Tell her to keep the lamp of prayer
Alight, a beacon burning.
Her prayers shall reach you far away,
And lure your souls returning.
Tell her you dearly love her still,
For fear some bright tomorrow,
May bear away her listening soul
And leave you lost in sorrow.
And mid the bitter falling tears
And signs you may not smother,
0 Will remember when too late
You did not write to mother,

THE BATTLE IN THE SENATE.

While our armies are preparing for a
hostile invasion of Cuba;while our fleets
are securing the waters of Caribbean
sea In search Of the Spanish squadron,
a battle is being waged lin the Halls of
the United States Senate more import
ant and far reaching in it's results, for
good or i'll, than even the wonderful
victory OF Dewey at Manila. The weap-
ons are not the arms OF war, but the
intellects of men. Equity II greed,
right and wrong are struggling togeth.
err in mortal combat. Not the blood of
strong men fighting in the heat Of pas
sion, but The blood of helpless wonen
and children for generations TO come is
staked on the outcome.
1t is tho old question Of taxation and
public debt, the question of who shall
bear the burden of war--the rich or the
poor. On the one side we find the rep
resentatives of the common people, who
would pay as they go; who are willing
to stand their share OF the burden now,
but wish to see the rich corporations
and capitalists, who have fattened for
years under the protection of tho laws,
also compelled to pay their proportion.
On the other side are the representa-
tives of the bankers, the ~millionaires
and the trusts. With the blandest of
smiles and the most specious oratory
they offer to open their Golfers to the
Government. They will lend the o
necessary to carry on the war and take
their pay ten or twenty years hence as
IT suits Uncle Sam to pay. What could
be fairer than that (?). But debts have
TO be paid and bonds bear interest.
While the coupon clipper sits at his
ease, the poor man will see the crust
snatched from the hands OF his children
to pay twice over the debt which we
are we'll able to meet now.
The cause of the people has many
strong champions in the Senate who
are determined to fight the bond feature
the revenue bill to the last ditch.
May success crown their efforts.
