ment by a government that it pro-
poses to resort to arms for some good
reason and is perhaps considered a
more preferable proceeding than to
have war forced upon a nation by
some hostile act. When Japan de-
clared war on Russia she Immediately,
on the very first day of war attacked
the Russians at ChemulpO and sunk
the Variag. The Russians were dis
posed to claim that this was not fair

1912 against Great Britain, We we're
almost totally unprepared and had
hard time of it on land. Washington
was captured by Sir Alexander Coch-
rane and the public buildings burned,
but the navy covered itself with
glory A singular fact in connection
with this war was that some days
after peace was declared the battle
of New Orleans was fought, ending
in a signal victory for the Americans.
You know here were no Atlantic
cables or steamships then, and all
news had to be brought across the
ocean by sailing vessels"
What other declarations OF war
has the United States made, Uncle
Harry?' said Helen.
We'll, in 1S45 we declared war on
Mexico, and again in 1898 the gues-
ton of war with Spain, when the
distressing conditions in Cuba came
up. Our great President Mckinley
felt that we should protect the suf-
ferers in Cuba, but some Congress
men didn't think so, and there was
great confusion and discord in Wash
ington. In the midst of it, however,
the battleship Maine, lying peacefully
at anchor in Havana Harbor, was
blown up and some hundreds OF
brave American seamen were killed
and then the storm broke loose.
Congress declared war and our
army and navy proceeded to carry on
operations. Dewey electrified the
world by capturing or sinking the
entire Spanish feet at Manila, and
Sampson and Schley sank the
enemy's fleet outside Santiago The
army also did good work and the war
didn't last long.
when war was declared by the
United States the word was sent to
our minister, General Woodford and
he was told to demand his credentials,
but the word was delayed somehow
in transmission and the first thing
General Woodford knew his papers
were sent to him and he was prac-
tically told to get out
This was looked on as a very
smart piece of work in certain
European diplomatic circles. but
should call it a case Of national i'm
politeness. The Spanish minister to
the United States, Senior Polo Y Der.
nabe was politely informed of the
declaration of war, and his papers
handed him with all diplomatic
courtesy.

of war by the United States, or a

UncEe Harry Tells Of War Declarations

"Uncle Harry" said Joe, Il was
looking at bulletin board down town
the other day when heard two men
talking. One said he hoped Congress
would not say that a state of HOSTILE

squarely and make a declaration of
war against Germany. What is the
difference? Isn't it war in either

citizens and committed other acts that
are hostile. Therefore a state Of hos
tilities exists with or without our
action. The blame is altogether on
the offending side and we can defend
ourselves without an actual declara-
ton of war. But in the case OF an
actual declaration of war, no overt
act may have been committed. but the
