man and Captain Macdonald, of the Twen-

made his escape but he was later captured.
He was taken before the junta for a hear
ing. and, being found guilty of various
crimes, was sentenced to death by that
semi judicial body. The execution of the
prisoner was prevented by the military au-
thorities, who detailed Sergt Emil Wack,
OF Syracuse New York, member of Com
pany G, Twenty sixth Infantry, and
guard TO protect and hold him.
After this Captain Bordman rode to Iloi-
10 and reported the circumstances of the
case at headquarters. On December q he

ence of Captain Bordman. Dr. Gilchrist,

Messenger.
Isu't there, dear boy9 Don't delude
yourself with the idea that because a
few senators and representatives who
knew so much more than their consti-
tuents saw fit to take fall out of the
constitution and dishonor the pledges
made by the president himself that the
Porto Rican question is settled, for it is
not. No question affecting public pol
icy and the fundamental principles of
the country are ever settled until they
are settled right. Eighty-fve per cent
right does not fill the bill, even though
republican ofice-holding partisans do
bow the head ard cringe the knee at the
crack of the party whip. Oh yes, the
Porto Rican question IS still before the
country and no amount of sophlstry or
specious reasoning can remove it from
the mind of the thinking voter.
