West Indies News Service Is American

Lord Burnham (portrait herewith)
recently in the house of lords,
broached the subject Of the American.
ization Of the West Indies According
to present means, all the news pub
lIshed In West Indian newspapers Is
supplied by American news agencies.
Discussion In the house Of lords was
held on the subject and the govern
ment was asked whether the West In
dian colonies would be represented at
the forthcoming imperial conference
and whether the question OF maritime
and telegraphic communication with
that part Of the British empire would
be considered.
England gets quite excited every
now and then over the Idea that the
United States may get possession of
the British West indies. American
statesmen have talked a good deal on
the subject, their Idea being that
America should have them in order
to protect the Panama canal.

DELTA FRUIT COMPANY
RAPIDLY FORGING AHEAD

Onions, onions everywhere! We
visited the cellars and warehouses of
the Delta Fruit & Mercantile company
the other day and were awed by the
grand assemblage of onions and pota-
toes.
We never knew before that there
were SO many onions in Delta county.
Nearly seventy-five cars of onions
were in sight in the various storage
rooms, some being the property of the
company, and some stored for others.
There were also several cars of po-
tatoes and two cars of honey.

Almost on the last rasp of the an

showed off for the Sarah.

Maybe replied Satan.
1t seemed to Radcliffe all at once
that the old wreck lying on that un.
seen reef might have been likened to
a carcass in the desert, and that he
was watching the gathering of the
vultures to a feast.
Satan fell into meditation for a
moment. Then he resumed:
That's what the cuss has been do
In. He's been on the hunt for me,
same as Clark was. only for different
reasons. Now you wait and see."
"What's the name of Cleary's boat?'
asked Radcliffe as he watched the ap-
preaching ketch.

He whistled %contentedly as he leaned

hatchet-sharp profile, wondered what
was coming next OF one thing he was
beginning to feel certain-Cleary. Car

might come out of Havana on the long

Again shall we see the aged forms of
the veterans who fought under Grant
and under Lee, under Sherman and
Stonewall jackson; under Sheridan
and Stuart.
And do not let time dim for you the
martial glories of their battles. For
there is more TO Memorial Day II a
smiles and tears and tears and smiles
for the Blue and the Gray.
The United States of America does
no 90 around with chip OF shoulder.
But you know, and / know, away down
deep, that we Americans are the most
warlike people on this earth. and the
most desperate in battle. The Stars
and Stripes has never yet trailed in
defeat!
Yes, there was fighting ut Belleau
Wood and at Chateau Thierry. But
there was fighting at Gettysburg and
Antietam, too. Read these lines by
the laconic Grant, who never wasted n
word. and saw things as they were. in
his chapter entitled Battle OF the VIII
derness":
"At $40 in the afternoon Lee at
tackled our left. His line moved up
to within a hundred yards of ours
and opened n heavy fire. . The
enemy pushed through our lines, plant
ing their flags on n part OF the In
trenchments not on fire. . . Fight
ing had continued from five in the
morning, sometimes along the whole
line, ut other times only in places.
The ground fought over varied In
width, but averaged three-qunrters of
a mile. The killed, and many of the
severely wounded of both armies lay
within this belt. where 1t was practi-
cally impossible to reach them. The
woods were set on fire by the bursting
shells and the conflagration rugged. The
wounded who had not strength to
| move themselves were either suifo-
Gated or burned to death. Finally,
the fire communicated with our breast
works In places. Being constructed OF
wood they burned with great fury. But
the battle still ragged, our men firing
| through the flames until II became too
hot TO remain longer. Lee was now
In distress. . . During the night
all of Lees army withdrew within
their Entertainments"
Let us give full need of honor to
the survivors OF those heroic days.
For soon there will be no survivors
either In Blue or Gray. Consider the
story that comes from Bradford, Pa.
Because only eight OF the 1874 Civil
war veterans who made up Encamp-
Vf-. I.a,taa
ARE still living. and only three of this
lumber nre able to lenve their homes,
the roster has been presented TO the
McKean County Historical society for
preservation. The encampmeni was

Bradford with the discovery of oil
soon nfter The close Of h war. They
represented more than 100 regiments
and most Of them had been wounded
