AS TO BRITISH LANCERs

Editor FL PasO Herald:
Among the many stories of Mexico and
us wars there appeared what pretended to
be an authentic review or story recently from
a W ashlngton correspondent named Elliot
describing the army Of Gen. Huerta and
being added, among others several bat
talionS OF lancers- These Mr.. Ellit stated.
were being trained by British officers. who
knew the terrible destruction these lancers
wrought upon the Beers during their war
with England in South Africa
Now ! do not beErudge Cen Huerta his

through the AnglO-BOer war. I would like
20 De apprised Of the places and dates where
the 11n6llSn soldiers ever succeeded in get
ting within striking distance Of the Beers
with their lances not because the Beers
lailed TO expose themselves or vanished from
the globe, but because we often saw the
l1ngllsn regiments pTettily lined I'D with
theirs lancers, evidently ready to deliver
q deadly charge, and I remember at Glands
lasBLe, at DOnkerhOek. and other battles
Wnere the Iancers actually charged but they
never arrived, and ] am positive that they
never. during the three years war sIc

It was not lack Of courage of the English
soldler, neither was it because the lances
modern magazine rifle, the lance the sword
ana even the bayOnet have become obsolete
ana no longer weapons OF practical use
IaLllef an impeachment, and of as much use
as a cane or umbrella in a fight
now, L Ieel certain that Mr. Huerta is
nelng FOOLED just as the English fooled
themselves. and it is my anxiety to correct
me ridiculous statement about the South

these lines to be written.

Who is doing this? It is the great masses
OF the people. It is not only you and me
but it is the sentiment and belief of the
people that it will lessen the cost Of living
