Criticism Not Justified.

| There is still disposition in some
Cavalry, better known as the liouSh

ing into the Spanish ambuscade at La

fore Pando can get reinforcements for

They took one of the ordinary hazards
of war and by conspicuous bravery
won splendid fight 1t is unfair to
say their leaders Numbered and let
their valor overcome all discretion.
Their justification does not rest upon
theoretical grounds, either. 1t is found
in the fact that they were allowed to
occupy Sevilla and points in advance
without even show of resistance.
The trusty Cuban scouts had reported
General Linares' preparation and in
tention to make determined defense
of Sevilla, but after his experience
with volunteers and regulars at La
Quasina, he changed his mind ana
abandoned everything. The move

been advanced two days as a result of
Fridays battle, which fully compen-
safes for the loss sustained. Judged
from some standards it was only
skirmish at La Quasina where our boys
put to rout an entrenched foe of twice
their number, but judged by its results
it was a great battle.
But there is something more in the
account to the credit of the American
troops. 1t is the largest item, too.

An Expedition Against Spain.

There is an almost universal unbelief
of the official announcement from
Madrid that Admiral Camera is going
to the Philippines with his fleet. 1t is
believed to be a ''ruse de guerre,
huge Castilian bluff. Consequently the
Washington announcement that Com
modore Watson with the Newark,
Iowa, Oregon, Yankee Dixie, Yosemite
and other craft, is to sail at once
against the Spanish coast arouses some
suspicion. The sudden desire of the
government to have its naval plans
made public indicates that it wants the
Spanish government to know them.
Perhaps this will serve Spain as an eX-
cuse to recall Camera, and possibly
hasten it's prayer for peace, both being
ends to be wished for.
Whether the government means busl-
ness in its announcement of an expedi-
ton against Spain or whether it is an
swering the Spanish bluff with one of
the Yankee variety, the matter is one
of great Importance and the possible
and probable consequences are worth
considering. Until the contrary is
proved it is We'll to assume that Uncle
Sam is in dead earnest and that he
proposes to give the enemy's country
taste of real war at close quarters. 1t
is certain that he has the ships and
men all ready, and under a tried vet

peace. If Admiral Camera FASTENED

seems to be that the machine gun, in
