"This opportunity" says the writer,
"came in 1868, when the Critic de Yara'
was the signal for vengeance and exter-
mination. The Spanlards at once respond
cd by organizing the volunteer regiments.
ITO deny the services which this organ
ization gave to the cause of Spain would
be unjust and useless. but at the same
time we must agree that the volunteers
committed grave errors. More than once
they Obliged captains general to resign

served to satisfy vengeance, which gave
rise to the pretext, as unjust as hypocrit-
ical, Of humanity on the part of the Unit

Intervention" \
The author then describes the condition
of the Spanish soldiers in Cuba at the
outbreak Of the war with the United
States.
'.rhe Spanish soldier in Santiago de
CUBA, as we'll as in all parts Of the ISL
ands, was badly dressed and fed During
three years he had sustained war, hard
as it was unrewarding, fighting against
the enemy, the climate, the sun and the
dew, the roads and the water, the winds
and the plains-in one word, against
everything, for here in Cuba everything
is against the Spanish army, to which
was owed, and is still think due, Escar

Before the destruction of our fleet, and
more SO later on, the enemy was in full
control Of the sea. It's fleet, which at one

cannon), did not allow us of ever hoFtng

THE OPINION OF A SOLDIER OF
HIGH ANK

An officer of high rank voluntarily
writes to The New York Evening Post
of the war in the Philippines. He has
been a participant, and knows whereof
he affirms. He says of the conduct Of
those making it: This war is a wick
ed war, and is being waged in a wick
ed way. All the blood hat has been
shed since May 1, 1898, is on the head
of some one, and will rise up in the
judgment against him."
That officer is still far away in Ma
Mia. He does not disgrace himself as
some of the reverend clergy do by
calling it a o a righteous war.
But he brands it as Ubiquitous, as I'M
j~ustifiable. He tells of the innumera-
bic, meaningless, unfruitful skirmishes
that are made to keep up the show of
fighting. His words are: Men are be-
ing sacrificed every few days for the
sole purpose Of gratifying the ambi-
ton of some YEA commander. On his
own responsibility, or by permission
from higher authority, he sends out a
distance. 1t advances in the enemy's
country till fired upon, Their returns.
Nobody is any wiser, no Information is
obtained"
He says there is neither peace mol
war in the Philippines. What is done
does not "conciliate but aggravates.'
He wishes the United States govern
ment to say openly, clearly to the Fill
pinos of the purpose of this country
not having at first understood the quail
iications of the natives:
