In 1903 we fought in Trpoli. and In 1905
our men marched 400 miles through Africa
and stormed the principal fortress OF Derne.
and on April 81 planted the American nag
for the first time on a fortress In the Old
World. JEFFERSON was President.
In 1882 we took the Sumatran fort OF Quail

burned the town. This was some OF ANDREW
JACKsoN's work.
In 1858 we fought with Fills. who had
murdered Americans.
In 1880 we defeated the kumassi natives.

dered shipwrecked sailors.
In 1853 we took the forts at himono-
seki because the Prince OF Satsuma had
broken a treaty and permitted wrecked
sailors to be maltreated.
In 1887 we smote the pirates In Formosa,
the killing Of our shipwrecked sailors being
the cause.
In 1871 we were fighting in Corea, where
American ships had been burned and sailors
killed. We destroyed the forts.
In 1890 we were by the King OF Corea's
side, guarding him against attack by
revolutionists.
On none of these occasions do our mis-
sionaries or Ministers or citizens resident

provided for in our Army. Recently an act was

and men serving In certain specified countries
Alaska, Cuba, Hawaii, Porto Rico and the
Philippines. The troops ordered to China.

ITO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Str: What Is the

Of New York; A REPUBLICAN.
The chief objection to Mr.. REEDS candidacy
for Governor Is himself. He had worked at pol
itics with great success for thirty years: but
two year, ago he changed his vocation to bust
ness. with the gratifying result of attaining
success again. He Is making money. Mr.
