IN a recent interview Chauncy M. Depew said: Steer clear of poll ties, my boy. You would much better expend your energies on something else that will do you more good in the loag run. You may waste your whole life in work ing for some party, ard when the time comes for your reward you see it given to someone else who has not worked half as hard as you. " In th;s day and generation it is not the man who has performed the most loyal and distinguished servi- ces to his party that receives the rewards, but the cringing time. server who best serves the purpo- ses of the political managers. Poli- ticians are notoriously selfish, and are governed by expediency and personal ends.

SINCE 80 per cent of our export trade is transported in foreign bot toms, war with Spain could not do much damage to American com merce. There is also a treaty be- tween Spain and the United States, made in 1919, which provides that in the event of war between the two nations, that neither would seize goods of the other on board of a neutral vessel.

IN the GRAPHIos opinion, itwould be very unwise thing to recognize the independence of Cuba in connec- tion with a resolution authorizing the President to intervene with the army and navy. The Cubans have DO stable government; they have only a Junta. If independence should berecognized, then the Amer ican army would be practically un- der the control of Gen. Gomez, and no peace treaty could be established without the consent of the Cubans. The United States should not be put in that attitude. The Americans should be left to deal with the Span iards unhampered by the Junta.

The spaniards as Fighters.

The SpantardS as Fighters.
 The Courier-Journal, under the above caption, says:
 It is well not to go into war with Spain under the supposition that it is to be a walkover for our navy. The Spaniards, in the first place, have been fighting for three years and are thus experienced in war; in the second place, the Latins are as much fighting race as the Anglo-SaXons During the last hundred years Spain has been en- gagged in war for sixty years, and there is much in such experience. Her mariners are recruited from her sea coast population and are skillful sailors as well as brave men.
 We can gain some idea of the desperate courage with which the Latins fight by recalling the his tory of the naval struggle between Peru aud ChiIi in 1879 No more determlnation or bravery was ever displayed. The Peruvian iron clad Huascar, after a brilliant predatory expedition that lasted for three months, was returning home to reft and repair under command of Admiral Grau. On the 8th. of October he sighted Chilian fleet containing two iron clads, and after a vain attempt to escape, fought them single handed for hours with terrible losses. l Admiral Grau was killed in the eonnIngtower; a commander who succeeded him was slain aud the Lieutenant who followed was shot down by a marine in Chilian ship which lay alongside. The carnage and slaughter were fearful, but the few remaining Peruvians resisted a boarding party until overpoWered and then it was discovered that the chief engineer of the Huasear had seuttled his ship, though the victors managed to save it. This was the most famous engagement of the war, but in a previous one when a Chilian ship was sunk the crew resisted rescue by the Peru vians, stabbing them with their knives. Over half submitted to drowning rather than capture. These people were practically Spaniards, and probably fought no better than S2aniards will light.
 There can be no doubt of the issue of the war with Spain, but it is well not to be too sanguine at the start. In this struggle be- tween Chili aud Peru the result was perhaps decided by the acci- dental sinking of the Peruvian iron-elad Independeucia, which was deeoyed into shallow water by Chilian Corvette and wrecked while Admiral Grau was winning a brilliant victory with the Huascar. Accident may give the Spanish the advantage in the first battle and then our enthusiastic Americans may find themselves in much the same condition as were the Wash ington authorities after the first Bull Run. 1t is better to be pre- pared for temporary reverses, though sure of ultimate victory. We have the righteous cause and are thrice armed in that at any rate.

NEIHART IN WAR.

The town of Neihart should not
pass the proposed call for more
troops to serve in the Spanish wars
without some serious consideration.
With no word of local Hattery the
people of this place can muster a
company cf infantry which with lit
tie drill will be the match for any
company in Montana. They are
men of superior physique and good
fighting qualities. And they are
not afraid of exposure or privation.
Let the call be made and the town
of Neihart will prove the saying.
The fact that few men are talking
of enlistment is no criterion. Be
cause the young man who talks
loudest of enlistment is prima facie
a coward and braggart. Those
who have talked most of entering
the war will be least in evidence
when the call is made.
AS for sharpshooters there are a
score at Neieart who can shoot in
any country and hold a good record.
And there are also others whose
whole glory would be to ride in a
regiment of cavalry and raid the is
land of Cuba. But as we said be-
fore, fighting is not done with the
mouth, and it wants only call to
back these assertions. They will be
backed.
One of the vociferous, bean con
suming young men of Great Falls
who had plenty Of oportunity to- en-
list, but who loves the land too well
to venture on the water, passed the
taunting remark about Neihart thai
it was indeed strange that Neihart
did not send some troops in the first
call. This same man, while consum
ing his lentels ought to consider
that, per population, Great Falls ha:
IA or Is soldiers to our one, ant
that the isolation of Neihart wa
somewhat of a barrier to enlistmen
on the first call. But let anothe
be made and we will wager tina
Neihart will, per population senc
eight or ten soldiers to one from tn
Electric city.

HELP FOR DEWEY.

The San Francisco Examiner
states that the coast defense vessel
Monterey, just ordered to the Phil
jppines, will be towed all the way to
Manila, probably by some big steam
collier. 1t saws: sThe Monterey
of herself could not go half way to
Honolulu. She carries only 200
tons of coal in her bunkers, which
would hardly last more than two
days. She could carry 300 tons
more on her decks if good weather
prevailed.
"The Monterey will be on the dry
dock for five days. After the ves-
sci comes from the dry dock, two
days will be required for coaling
and two days for loading supplies.
She will be ready for sea on We'd
nesday next. The vessel that ac-
companies the Monterey will be
loaded with coal and stores for her
self and the warship. The voyage
of the ship is hazardous one, but
this is the most favorable time of the
year for such an undertaking."
The Neihart herald. [volume] (Neihart, Mont.) 1890-1901, 1898-05-28

The L. S. S. Monterey has been
ordered to Manila to reinforce the
Asiatic squadron.
Between 1000 and 5000 troops,
drawn from Catalonia, Alusia and
around Aragon and Valencia are
embarking at Barcelona for the
Philippines.
w. J. Bryan as colonel of the
provisional Nebraska regiment, has
opened recruiting station in Lin
coin, and has already nearly a com
plete roster of what will be known
as company A, Third Nebraska reg
iment.
Grain experts say that the mag
nificent harvests in Algeria, Tunis
and Egypt will soon reduce the
price of wheat, and that France will
need to reinstate the duty on that
cereal. The French crops are prom
ising an abundant yield.
The formal announcement of the
engagement of Miss Laura Williams
of Chicago, and granddaughter OF
the late Judge Dean Canton, to
Major General Wesley Merritt, mil
itary governor of the Philippine is
lands, was made last Tuesday. Miss
Williams is about 20 years old.
The final step in the settlement
between China and Japan has been
taken in the payment by China Of
the last installmeht of the war in
demnity, amounting to about $780,.
100000. The payment was made
at London. Japan now evacuates
Wei-hai-wei, the last point which
she held on the continent of Asia,
and it will soon pass in the hands OF
England.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

Congress will soon be called upon
to decide the question of building a
canal connecting the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans. Chairman Davis Of
the foreign relations committe said:
"The need of canal between the
Atlantic and Pacific cannot be ques-
toned. Our interests demand it.
With canal we could have nothing
to fear from an attack on our Pacif-
ic coast. 1t would take us 60 days
to send our fleet around the Horn to
the Pacific coast as it is. With the
canal we could dispatch menof war
to San Francisco from New York in
IA days.
"With a liberal appropriation, say
100000, 900, canal could be CON
structed through Nicaragua that
would be of great value to the Unit
ed States for all time to come. The
Maritime Canal company, which is
endeavoring to sell its interests tc
the government, started the cana
some years ago and considerable
work was done, but the hard times
of 1928 came along and struck a
deathblow to the enterprise.
