This Motto. r
Capt. Sigsbee, writing of the de-
struction Of his battleship in th.|
Century. denies that Remember The
Maine ~ was used as motto by tn,
navy in the late war with Spain. lIe
also indicates perfectly proper use d
the phrase by patriotic Americans. lls
says:
I'VE have heard much of the motto,
Remember tho Maine" If we arof
satisfied that the Maine was blown ND
from the outside We have right to
remember her with Indignation; but
without more conclusive evidence than
we now have, we arc not right II vel
charge crinlinality to persons. There.
fore | conceive that tho motto, "Ro.
member tho Maine,'' used as war.
cry would not have been UNSUITABLE.
/ should like to make the point here,
us haze made it elsewhere, that this
great and free country, with its edu.
cation, good intention, and universal
moral influence, may 60 to war To-
punish, but not to revenge. Improperly
applied, tho motto, tRemember tho
Maine, . savors too much of revenge,
too much of evil for evil; but it may
be used in an entirely worthy sense.
During the recent war with Stain
about rs meu were killed and wounded,
| in the United States navy. Only Is
were killed. On board the Maine 25i
men were killed outright and Others
died later--more than II times as many
as were killed in the United States
navy by the Spanish land and naval
forces during the entire war. In tho
way that the men of the Maine died
and suffered there was enough OF the
heroic to provide sound foundation
| for the motto, " Remember the Maine. T"
4 Let me dismiss the prevailing i'm,
preston that this motto was used in
the United States navy, in the recent
war, as battle-signal. No United
States naval vessel has entered into
4 action flying the signal, Remember
the Maine. / am glad that it can be
so stated; yet one may excuse many
| mietaken expressions Of the heat Of
action. 3
To this the editor Of the Century
adds:
| 1t may be said on the authority o.
Capt. John r. Bartlett, during the wal
chief intelligence officer of the navy
s'The signal, Remember the Maine,
has never been displayed on Unite

REPORT ON poRTo ERGO.
Made by Father Thomas sherman and Pub
liEhed by the War Department ThursdaY.

liEhed by the War Department ThursdaSs
Washington, Jan. -. Assistant Sec
Rotary Meiklejohn made public today,
through the Division of Customs and
Insular Affairs, Father Thomas E.
Sherman's report to Gen. Brooke of
his recent trip through the Island OF
Porto Rico. ,
Father Sherman left San Juan Octo-
Der 10Th and visited Arecibo, Utado
and Lares, and from thence south pro-
ceeded to Adiutant's, alone and un-
armed and without witnessing any dis
order. Subsequently Father Sherman
visited Coamo, Aibonito, Cayoy,
Caguas, Agas, Buenas, Juncos and
Humacac. All Of these towns he found
in perfect peace and full Of sense Of
security. Later in December Father
Sherman says he visited the towns of
Vieques, Falardo aud Carolina, with
the same result.
As far as his observations went,
Father Sherman says that he found
tine people of Porto Rico gentle, docile
and kindly, and that the Spaniards liy-
ing there rejoice with their Porto
Rican friends IN the change of sover
eighty. The disorderly element is q
very small faction in the teeming popu
lation of the island. There is some
timidity expressed on the part of prop
erty holders, but this is largely due to
the paternal system to which they have
become accustomed. He says that a
liberal public outlay on tine roads
would add immensely to the commerce
and security of the island.
: Father Sherman says it is common
| talk that the disorders of the mast few,
months have been caused by bands
composed partly of prisoners released
by the Spaniards, and Of Spanish sol.
diers discharged and remaining on the
island. Having, he says. ridden about
the island alone and, as rule, un,
armed, for the past three months, anG
having visited many priests ane
alcaldes and prominent merchants, ht
is strongly impressed by the fact tina
profound respect is felt for American
authority, and the utmost confidenc,
in the courage of any and all of oul
men.

Elkton, Jan. 1.-THE stockholders
of the Cecil County Agricultural So
ciety, at their annual meeting held
here on Tuesday, decided not to hold
any fair this year, and further ordered
the president and managers to sell the
gronds at public or private sale upon
terms deemed best to them. The Office
of secretary and treasurer was con-
soidated, and the salary placed at
800. The society lost money last year,
and, instead of continuing to place the
society in debt any further, the mana
gers thought it best not to hold any
exhibition this year. The following
managers were elected; q. Porter
Lusby, George S. Woolley, Marley
Drennen, W. Arthur Mitchell, George
r. Ash, Samuel J. Arbuckle and Henry
G, Mcdowell. George S. Woolley is
