Editorial Comment
Hughes Touched a Chord.
(Bath LTimes)

Mr.. Hughes touched a chord in the
patriotic hearts of America when he
took Secretary Of War Baker to
task for insulting the fathers of
American liberty by comparing in a
recent speech the Mexican swash-
bucklers with the patriots Of Valley
Forge. Such a comparison certainly
betrayed lack of knowledge Of the
Mexicans and Of American history
II nothing more. To compare those
sturdy followers Of Washington who
served with him through that terrible
winter Of Valley Forge, suffering I'M
told hardships from cold and hunger
and shedding their blood in the sacred
cause of free gov eminent. to the Mex
lean brigands who murder defenseless
men, outrage women, sustain them
selves by pillaging their own country.
ignorant and vicious half-breed ban
ditti, who are guilty Of every crime
against humanity and have not the
faintest conception Of the duties and
responsibilities of free men-that is
surely not worthy of any American
citizen, and least Of all a responsible
official of the United States Govern
ment. The Secretary of War makes
pitiful spectacle endeavoring thus to
palliate and excuse the Mexican policy
Of the Administration.

Cruisers Of the Air.

(R. H. Dyer, Fairfield, Me.)
On mammoth pinions swiftly glide
The cruisers of the air.
The circling hawk cannot out-ride,
The eagle not out-dare,
These ghostly planes that swoop and
sweep
Above the fight, and lightly leap
Into cloud as dense and deep
AS sickening despair
Grim pilots grip the levers we'll
The vital wheels that steer
While mad propellers spurn, repel
The charged atmosphere.
The smoke of battle, far below,
Hangs shroud-like over friend and foe,
But ah! the skimming aircraft know
Beneath the shroud is hell.
Conclusion fierce of bursting balls
Culver through gear and rod;
And one, more frail, that flutters, falls
Straight to the reddening sod.
The winged fleets, in common fight.
Soar to greater, safer height,
Where they resume the fearful fight
Nearer the throne of God.
Night lowers at last-the conflicts cease
Above and on the plain;
And reigning darkness calls for peace
TIL morning rules again.
The battie-crazed survivors fly
Out of the fast, fast thickening sky
The stars look down and mutter: Why?'
But mutter all in vain.
