abled by a shot through the body on

teer army, he was honorably discharg
ed. He was promoted Colonel in the
regular establishment on July /, 1898,
and assigned to the Twenty second In
fantry, whose Colonel Charles A. Wick
off. was killed ait San Juan HILL
He sailed for Manila February 18th

Our Past and Our Future.

In our dull and sordid periods Of poll

participation in our own Government.
We should not keep our Government a
