~IE naval reserves on board the
Resolute. which was attached

TiE naval reserves on board the
Resolute, which, was attached
to Simpsons squadron, have
applied to the courts for their share
of the prize money accruing from the
battle of Santiago, and if justice pre-
walls they will get it. Sampson in his
official report of the battle made no
mention of the Resolute. He says
that the ship could not reach the en-
envy with its guns and was, therefore,
not in the battle. But the Resolute
was in it to much greater extent
than Sampson ever was. If it could
not reach the enemy with its guns, it
was by no means beyond the reach
Of the guns of the enemy. At the
end of the fight the Resolute rescued
four or five hundred men from the
water and the sinking ships. Prize
money is wrong in theory and ought
to be abolished. but as long as it is
an institution in the navy the naval
reserves of the Resolute should get
their share. To omit mentioning them
in his report was eminently character
istic of Sampson.

Is THE NATION HONEST?

Once upon time the nation needed
supplies Florida possessed, and asked
through the Secretary Of War that the
State furnish money and material, to be
refunded as soon as possible. viii IL be
credited that this was done during the
Seminole war, and that for all these wears
the nation has admitted the justice of the
debt, and has failed to pay?. Is 1t con-
ceivable that when the State needed the
half million dollars so given to educate
Its children, to defend itself and its neigh
bors from infection, to improve its har-
bors and to drain its lands, that still this
great and rich nation admitted its debt,
but faiied to pay? Yet all this is true.
During the past summer the nation call
ed for volunteers and Florida was willing
to send double its quota Of men, but had
not the wherewithal to furnish equip
ments; can we believe that still the ma

ton refused to pay creditor who was
anxious to spend the monep again for the
same purpose as before. and because OF
this failure Florida's troops were lacking
in readiness to serve the nation? Yet
this was true.
But other States advanced money
some without warrant of law-as florida
had done, and now they ask that 1t be re-
funded and ask in vain. The represen-
tatives of the States that would not do

Shall they all be denied?
When these things come to pass, shall
we not anxiously inquire. Is the nation
honest? For the sake of making a plans
