some enterprizing farmer who realiz-
es that he has been growing some
pretty good tubers will make an in

When ii was announced in Madrid
that Admiral Montojo had sent the
American fleet to the bottom of Man

Many of the Latin raceshave pecul-
for the truth when a lie appears to
better fit the existing circumstances.
1t is daily becoming apparent. how
ever, that the cultured nations OF
Europe, now devoting their vast re-
sources and intelligence to an attempt
to wipe each other of the face of the
earth. are not showing much improve
ment over the tactics used by the
crafty and bombastic Spaniards. The
war bulletins issued from Paris and
Berlin generally agree in one partic-
ular, both sides have been victorious
az the same place and the same time.
The English war Office is devoting
most of its energy, so far as the dis
tribution of news is concerned, tow.
ard an attempt to cover up the re-
verses met by the allies and the Brit
ish navy. And in the meantime the
people i'm the countries directly and
indirectly concerned in the great
struggle must be gradually losing
their grasp of whatever insight they
may al first have had of the under
lying causes of the war Perhaps we
look at things differently i'm this

fuse point blank to support a war of
