A SPANISH RUSE.
1t Might Have Worked at One Time, but
Came Too Late.

1t Might Have Worked at One Time, but
Came Too Late.
The battle of Santiago was raging high.
The rough riders were in the van. The
air was thick with bullets. The scream
ing of shells overhead was deafening. The
dynamite guns were coughing with a Gem
etery hack that vas more deadly than a
thousand consumptives. Everywhere were
death and destruction. The fleet of Uncle
Sam had skinned by the Merrlmac and
gained the open channel into Santiago
bay, while all around them was the white
upheaval of exploded mines.
The great gunboats were trimming their
ten tonners upon Cervera's feet. Over on
the hills all was ready for the last rally.
The city was doomed. Long lines of Gu
bans under the one star flag were seen ad-
vancing under great leadership to the
south and west. It was a supreme mo
ment of suspense.
Suddenly upon the highest ramparts
there appeared a white flag. Beneath it
there stood two Spanish officers in full
uniform. One was General Linares, oom-
mandor Of the Spanish land forces. The
other vas Admiral Cervera, chief of the
Aeee' pedu Oh Gnc 0IleIny WACA
megaphones, in n voice they addressed
the advancing foe. "Stay, o sons of Yam.
keelandl" they cried. "We are now ready
to make an exchange"
"Name itl'' came the answer from q
score Of thousand Threats.
1--WE will give you Hobson for Santi-
ago., came the wild cry.
Eyes, you will-nit!" rolled back the
answer like a voice of eternal thunders.
I'VE will have both or nothing nowl"
And with the onslaught of flends and tho
roar of earthquakes the doomed city fell.
The exchange racket was clever, but 1t
didn't go. 1t was too late.-New York
journal.

happy it is not necessary for the people
to spend all tho money made in main
tanning large standing armies, perhaps
an understanding may be arrived at
which will result in bringing about a
permanent peace in Europe--until some
kinglet or queenlet gets real mad at a
neighbor. and then, look out.

fortunately conditions are not.

scandal The papers opposed TO the
administration were not slow to see a
political advantage in stirring up a row,
and from that beginning has grown the
trouble, The New MEXICAN firmly be-
lieves that whatever investigation is
made will fully substantiate the fact
thai the sensational papers in the coun-
try, and not the War department, are
responsible for the scandal"

The removal from Office of a few law
breaking county officials would bring
about a purer and better administration
of county affairs and a more honest and
just collection of taxes and accounting
for such in New Mexico and it is well
known that an improved state of affairs
in that direction is greatly desired and
needed in the territory, specially in the
counties of San Miguel and Union.
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1898-09-05

The Union party in San Miguel coun-
ty loves the corrupt officials of that
county for law breaking, for dishonesty
and corruption in Office. Birds OF a
feather flock together.

1t does appear as if District Attorney
Fort is none too anxious to enforce the

to offending county commissioners. The
