Miles is entitled to the credit Of
keeping the raw and inexperienced
young men of this country out of
the grasp of death which awaited
them about Havana. The good
sense and judgment exercised by

campaign. He should be furnish

about peace. 1t is nonsense to
talk of the withdrawal of the
troops at this stage of the game.
The people Of the United States
would not submit to this and they
would be right. Uncle Sam can
not afford to turn tail. When the
fight is over, then he can exercise
his discretion and generosity. But
he can not rest under the charge
that he was whipped off the is

politics to end the war quickly,

that the administration stands

forced to call for more troops.
