The story that Bugler Heard OF the
Newark, a Vermont boy, tells in an
other column of the recent San Do
mingo trouble, in which he took part
shows that the press dispatches con-
corning the affair were not exaggerat-
ed The marines sent out launch
bearing the U. S. flag to escort the
merchant steamer ashore to land her
cargo and the insurgents fired upon
the two vessels under the very noses
of the warships After that the plea
of the insurgents that the firing was
accidental, very naturally didn't go
down with the marines who landed
and cleaned the belligerents off the
point. Bugler Heard rather guesses
that they'll remember u.s." 1t is to
be hoped so. The United States Is no
bully; but 1t likes to have its rights
respected even In disorganized lit
