Mr.. Ralph forgot to say that he was

THE NATIONAL CAPITOL
Was burned by the British in tho War

GUS act than that perpetrated by an
English general, who burned the capi-
tol of the United States and other pub
lie and private dwellings in the beau.
tiful city where the affairs of this
great republic have been governed for
a century. The act was a most wan
ton and barbarous one, entirely un,

1t was an act for which no parallel
can be found, only in the dark ages
Of North European barbarism, nearly
1000 years ago, before the civilizine
