The aristocracy of West Point and
Annapolis must be preserved at all

The civil war history is repeatingitself.
Gen. Butler was hampered everywhere
because he was not a West Pointer yet
he captured Baltimore early in the war
in a single night without firing gun or
losing man. Gen. Scott was planning
to take in a three months campaign and
with three corps of men operating sinul-
tancously upon different points. Scott
wanted him courtmartialed for his glor-
ous accomplishment, but Lincoln pro-
NOTED him. Would that we had Lin

stroyed.
The way to cripple Spain was to at
tack her at once and not wait for her re-
cupcration Our country has vast re-
sources. The regular army and navy
could have won freedom for Cuba, and
then if Spain showed disposition to
fight and continue the struggle Il vol
untccr army could have been raised Ill
plenty of time to meet any army SPAN
might send over to Cuba.
This war is not being fought to free
Cuba, but was forced by the demands OF
Justice and is being used by politicalstrik-
ers to fill their own Golfers at the expense
of the blood and treasure of the nation.
When the country becomes reused to
the cnormity of the crimes being perpe-
rrated by the party in power, it will be
hurled down by an outraged people.
